The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 16: Absolutely No Air Force!

That night.

Staff dormitory - 3023.

In an unfamiliar room and on an unfamiliar bed, Yun Che was unable to fall asleep quickly on his first night.

He leaned against the bed, flipping through the rules and regulations of the Lanjiang Breeding Base, as well as the pets in the base and some related habits and precautions.

"It turns out there are two evolutionary paths for axolotls: one is the tidal salamander, and the other is the even rarer wind salamander!"

The axolotl is a high-level transcendent species, making it a relatively rare pet beast with considerable strength and potential.

The Tide Salamander's racial rank is High Lord, possessing both water and wind attributes.

Although it's the flagship of the Blue River Training Base, in reality... the brand is the main attraction, but there aren't many people who can afford to buy and train it.

More like it's a KO for the axolotl.

As for the Wind Demon Salamander...

The manual mentions very little, only a simple sentence: the race is suspected to be a low-ranking monarch, and has certain dragon attributes.

King! Dragon!

"Tsk, no wonder it's a dragon-type." Yun Che exclaimed.

So this means their racial rank has reached the monarch level?

"grumble?"

Dragon type?

Kongkong leaned his head closer.

"Hey, Kongkong, there are still quite a few green velvet worms in the breeding base."

Upon hearing this, Kongkong became even more interested and squeezed his head together with Yun Che's head.

"It also mentioned the evolutionary forms of the green velvet worm, and three types were recorded," Yun Che said with a smile.

"Chirp!" Kongkong tugged at his clothes, her eyes full of curiosity.

Tell me! Tell me!

"Silver Phosphorus Wind Butterfly, a low-level lord of the race, with insect and wind attributes."

"Rainbow Crystal Butterfly, a mid-level lord race, with insect and light attributes."

"The last one is the Xuanlin Silkworm, which does not transform into a butterfly. Its race level is also a mid-level lord, and it has the Bug and Steel types."

Kongkong pouted.

It's boring without dragons.

The little guy is smart now. He knows that although he doesn't have dragon attributes yet, he has awakened dragon bloodline, and Yun Che has been nurturing him in that direction.

I patted its head to comfort it.

"This is just something that's recorded in this manual; it doesn't mean there aren't other, less common evolutionary paths."

As an insect-type pet, the Green Velvet has its advantages, even though it has a poor start.

That is, a short growth cycle.

Moreover, the evolutionary process of metamorphosis from cocoon to butterfly contains a great deal of possibilities.

Therefore, many researchers prefer to use extraordinary organisms such as blue worms and green velvet worms for research, as they are low-cost, short-cycle, and have diverse evolutionary directions, which are all advantages.

Therefore, both the Green Caterpillar and the Green Velvet Bug are very suitable as initial pets for novice Beast Tamers with average personal and family conditions.

If we can take advantage of their rapid growth and train them, we might be able to tame some pets with greater potential and higher ceilings in the future, thereby breaking the shackles of our own identity.

However, there is one problem that Yun Che will have to consider sooner or later.

How does Kongkong evolve?

If they continue to raise him in this way, there will certainly be no problem. Kongkong's dragon bloodline is getting stronger and stronger, and he will make further progress with each molt.

But does that mean it won't evolve?

He hadn't had much of a clue before.

But after reading the breeding base's manual today, I have some thoughts.

Axolotl doesn't have the Dragon type either, and it still doesn't after evolving into Toxapex, but it does after evolving into Salamence.

How was it trained in the middle?

What are the differences?

This involves the secrets of the Blue River breeding base, so I definitely won't tell him.

But as an intern zookeeper, he has the opportunity to observe, and with the power of Tokiwa, he can sense the changes in the animals.

Use this as a reference.

I wouldn't say that Kong Kong will evolve into a dragon in one step, but at least it will be smoother.

You might even have some unexpected gains.

As he pondered, drowsiness gradually crept in, and Yun Che slowly drifted off to sleep.

"grumble?"

Kongkong, who was doing sit-ups, noticed this and immediately stopped and carefully moved the large book aside.

She bit the blanket and then gently covered Yun Che with it.

Tusi turned off the light, curled up next to the pillow, covered himself with a "blanket," and slowly fell asleep.

...

"dragon?"

In the office of the Lanjiang Cultivation Base, Lan Xiangyao looked surprised after listening to her fourth sister, Lan Xiangya's, story.

"Hmm." Lan Xiangya rubbed her temples. "They were already gone when I got there. But that's not the key point. The key point is that the short-winged locusts appeared in droves, which is a sign."

Lan Xiangyao frowned. "You mean, the Insect King?"

After shifting her slender, crossed legs, Lan Xiangya said helplessly, "I'm afraid even the Insect King is just one part of a certain phenomenon..."

"What on earth escaped from Jinling?" Lan Xiangyao's words were tinged with resentment.

Lan Xiangya sighed softly, stood up and said, "Second sister, I'll leave things here in your care. Third sister is at the training base. I'm just back to pick up some things, and I'll be leaving again soon."

"Anyway, Ivory, take good care of yourself," Lan Xiangyao nodded and gave her advice.

Hearing this, Lan Xiangya smiled and said, "Don't worry, Second Sister. Right now, it's just that we can't find the source. If a real fight breaks out, it will actually be simpler."

As she reached the door, Lan Xiangya suddenly stopped and turned to say, "By the way, Second Sister, is Dr. Niu coming tomorrow?"

"Yes. We arranged it three months ago. Dr. Niu is an expert in habitat science at Chaofan Biology. He will help us check the ecological simulation area in the base."

The Blue River Cultivation Base and Dr. Niu have a long-term cooperative relationship.

Please say hello for me.

"rest assured."

...

Two days later.

The woods along the Blue River.

"grumble!"

With the thread in its mouth, Kongkong pulled hard, and the thread drew a perfect parabola in the air, landing a lively crucian carp on the shore.

"Chirp!!" it chirped excitedly at Yun Che.

Another one! The third one!

Two plump crucian carp are swimming in a bucket on the shore.

"No, that's not scientific!"

Yun Che, who was sitting on a wooden stool next to him, glanced at the bamboo pole in his hand and muttered to himself as if he had lost his soul.

Why can you catch fish with nothing at all, while I haven't even had a chance to catch anything yet?

air force?

No, no.

These past two days, since he hasn't started work yet, Yun Che has been training with Kong Kong here.

The Lanjiang breeding base is built along the Lanjiang River, a tributary of the Huaijiang River. However, the Lanjiang River is not a straight tributary; it is winding and complex.

The Blue River breeding base is located at the bend of the Blue River, which is like a large lake that has been divided up, surrounded by forests on three sides.

The location Yun Che chose was not only sparsely populated, but also a bend within a bend, theoretically so the catch should have been plentiful...

The bait must be faulty!

Seeing that Yun Che remained unmoved, Kong Kong chuckled, "We'll have fish tonight!"

It spun out the silk thread again, which fell into the water.

In the past two days, they have consumed a total of 7 white-quality mastery seeds.

Kongkong's silk-spitting skill has successfully reached the master level, further improving the toughness, strength, and stickiness of the silk threads he spits out. Most importantly... the firing rate is faster.

It can even perform single shots and continuous single shots.

Also.

Yun Che also conducted some "experiments".

It has been confirmed that white-quality mastery seeds have a significantly reduced effect on low-level mastery skills and mid-level proficiency skills.

But no matter what, it's still better than not training with a proficient seed; the results will be much greater.

"grumble!"

Kongkong tugged the thread again, and another palm-sized crucian carp leaped out of the water.

Yun Che: "..."

Don't push me... Yun Che gritted his teeth inwardly. There were extraordinary creatures with lightning attributes in the breeding base.

Suddenly, a message appeared in front of him.

Your persistence is commendable, triggering a hidden mission—Never miss a mission!

Yun Che: "?"

Why does it feel like the system is mocking me?

Is this sarcasm?

That's sarcasm!

A breeder who doesn't aspire to be a fishing master isn't a good trainer!

[Accept the hidden mission: Never miss an opportunity!]

[Mission Rewards: 1 Good Fishing Rod, HM Skill "Surfing"]

A good fishing rod?
