Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Birth of the Blood Gu Butterfly
"How about this, I recently finished a project and we as teacher and student haven’t met for a while. I’ll come to your place to take a break."
"Check out your recent research results, see if you’ve been slacking off."
"And by the way, meet your grandfather and try to do some persuasion work."
"Don’t worry about my safety, you know how tight my security team is."
After Su Qingxian finished speaking, she directly hung up the phone, and when Zhang Lingxue called back, she found it couldn’t be connected.
At this moment, an electronically synthesized voice came from the video call.
"Miss Zhang, the video call has only one effective call count."
"If you need to reconnect, you need to apply again."
Zhang Lingxue knew that once her teacher had made a decision, no one could change it.
Calling back was not very meaningful, so Zhang Lingxue dispelled the thought directly.
When she returned to the lab, suddenly!!!!!!
((ᵒꈊᵒ᷅ू‖))՞
Did she enter the wrong lab?
Why are there three giant cocoons in the lab, and one of them has a different shape, emitting a Pigeon Blood Ruby-like luster?
Masaka?
Ye Bai succeeded?
Zhang Lingxue blinked in disbelief.
Was she dreaming?
She knew that studying the Hundred-Change Silkworm took a long time, with each evolutionary path averaging two years of research.
But Ye Bai managed it in two days?
Zhang Lingxue was dumbfounded.
The Unforgettable talent, how terrifying!
Yesterday she was still comforting him that failure is the mother of success, and today he’s already killed the mother of success!!!
Wait.
Where’s the blood sample I left by the equipment?
Could it have been discarded by Ye Bai?
This is bad.
Zhang Lingxue had a bad premonition.
Although she learned from her teacher that the Gu Insects wouldn’t easily infect humans, she wasn’t sure if given all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures her grandfather consumed, the Gu Insects might have mutated.
At this moment, the Sunflower King drilled out from underground, using its stem as two legs, walking towards Zhang Lingxue.
"Oh, it’s you, little guy."
Zhang Lingxue had a good feeling toward the Sunflower King.
She bent down and rubbed the Sunflower King’s little head.
"Were you guarding by the side?"
"Where did Ye Bai go?"
"Can you get in touch with him?"
Before Zhang Lingxue could finish asking, Ye Bai walked in from the side door. He had gone to the school canteen to buy food.
Big Gray ran back to the Cultivation House to entertain Sofia. Now Sofia was the Cultivation House’s biggest client, buying plenty of stuff every time she visited.
But she always requested Big Gray accompany her, citing that the Lightning Cat was shy and only fond of Big Gray.
"Ye Bai, did you see the test tube I left by the detection equipment?"
Zhang Lingxue looked tensely at Ye Bai.
If Ye Bai accidentally used it, she would need to immediately check if he was invaded by those cunning Gu Insects.
When Zhang Lingxue asked that, Ye Bai quickly had a bold guess in mind.
Looks like he’s figured out where the mysterious Gu Poison came from.
"Teacher, should we check the surveillance to see where the thing actually went?"
"I came early this morning and didn’t see the test tube. I thought you’d taken it away, teacher!"
When Ye Bai said this, Zhang Lingxue hesitated again.
Could it be that she remembered the wrong location?
It’s normal for memory to get scrambled with how much has been happening these past few days.
If only I had the Unforgettable talent.
Boohoo!
I really envy my student, why don’t I have this talent! Creepy and twisted crawling.
Zhang Lingxue quickly went to the surveillance room and retrieved the lab monitoring video.
In the surveillance footage, before Zhang Lingxue left, the test tube was indeed beside the detection equipment.
Then, the Light Goddess Butterfly appeared emitting a white glow, waking one Hundred-Change Silkworm with its strong light.
It groggily climbed up, smacking its lips.
The Hundred-Change Silkworm seemed to be looking for something to eat, gazing around.
Its gaze landed on the test tube, and it sneakily used its tongue to push the glass window open and then used the Silk-Spinning Skill to slowly drag the test tube over.
It finally opened its giant mouth and directly chewed the test tube to shreds, swallowing it.
Its body emitted a layer of Blood Mist and then calmed down, falling into a deep sleep.
By this point in the surveillance, it could basically be confirmed that the test tube was swallowed by the Hundred-Change Silkworm.
Ye Bai lowered his head apologetically: "Sorry, teacher, I forgot to close the window before leaving."
"Which led to the Hundred-Change Silkworm swallowing your precious leftover sample."
Zhang Lingxue waved her hand: "Forget it, it’s not worth mentioning."
"I see the Hundred-Change Silkworm you’ve evolved this time is a bit different; could it have evolved from that same Hundred-Change Silkworm?"
Ye Bai rubbed his temples: "It should be that Hundred-Change Silkworm."
"It swallowed a lot of Tier Four Exotic Beast meat I acquired from the Black Market."
"And finally spun silk to create a cocoon."
Ye Bai’s heart was bleeding, nearly four million Alliance Coins!!!
The key is this Hundred-Change Silkworm’s evolutionary path probably can’t be disclosed.
The mysterious Gu Poison played a significant role in the Blood Gu Butterfly’s evolutionary experiment.
Moreover, if Ye Bai guessed correctly, the Blood Gu Butterfly should be a Tier Four Pet Beast.
What concept is this, a high school student without any background invented a Tier Four Pet Beast.
It’s like a child wielding a strategic-level weapon.
