In other words, the reason why the electric dragon was able to transform into a blue lightning master was most likely because it swallowed the jasper of the thunder wolf dragon?
The jasper of Thunder Wolf Dragon will continuously transmit energy and biological information through contact like armor, affecting the electric dragon in a similar way as excitation.
When this influence accumulates to a certain extent, the unique Qingdian Master appears.
But is mutation really that simple? Only less than 20 special individuals have been confirmed.
After removing the adaptive mutations, there will be even fewer stimulating mutations relying on Baoyu and Reverse Scale.
If this is the correct way to mutate, there should be more special individuals like Qingdian Master who do not use ancient dragon gems as inspiration materials.
Wait
Could it be that the mutation is the result of the mutual influence of the two gems, which is why it is so rare.
Li Fan wrote down his speculation on his notepad.
When I left the top-secret archives room, it was already 11:30 pm.
"Senior hunter Li Fan, while you like academic research, you should also take care of your body."
Lock the iron door of the top-secret archives room tightly, Vegasa ordered.
"I came to the top-secret archives room for the first time today. I was so involved that I lost track of time."
After stopping his research, Li Fan also felt tired.
"Since you like ecological research so much, why not get a researcher qualification? With your diligence and talent, you might be able to become a double senior member of the Longli Academy."
Vegasa suggested.
"I will consider it, Dean."
Li Fan said goodbye, went to the headquarters restaurant to have a simple supper, and then entered the high-end hunter's residence to rest.
At five o'clock the next morning, I came to the institute again.
When Vegasa didn't come, he took the books in the bookcase in the hall and started studying.
Vegasa arrived at half past eight.
"Thank you for your hard work, Dean, I still need to trouble you today."
"You're welcome, I'm very happy to be able to help you young people."
The two entered the top-secret archives room again.
The third day, the fourth day, the fifth day
The bags under the eyes of Dean Vegasa, who was accompanying him, kept getting worse, and the brightness in his eyes gradually disappeared.
On the sixth day, at 3:27 in the morning, it was pitch black outside the window of the research room.
Li Fan looked at the time on his phone and thought about the three o'clock meeting he had made with Dean Vegasa yesterday. It was already half past three, so why didn't he come?
Crunch! The door of the institute opened, and an Elle cat with a bachelor's hat on his head walked in, rubbing his eyes.
"It turns out to be you, meow! A member of the team that hunts the electric dragon!"
When Si Ke saw Li Fan, he exclaimed.
"Are you Sik, the deputy leader of the research group?"
Li Fan asked tentatively.
When the Searing Carapace was first submitted, it was Sick who took the lead in conducting the strength test.
"Yes, meow, thank you for remembering me."
Sick said as he came to the table and sat across from Li Fan.
"Aren't you supposed to be on the Pioneer?"
Li Fan asked curiously.
"Yes, meow, but with the discovery of the Tower of Babel, even if the Pioneer rises to its extreme height, it cannot reach the top of the tower, so I was assigned by Dewen to return to the headquarters and be responsible for transforming a ship that can handle the exploration mission.
A small scientific research airship.”
"Is that so? Are you here to look for information?"
"No, meow, the design drawing has been completed, and the craftsman team is rushing to complete the commission from the dean."
Thicke explained.
"I see, the dean asked you to replace her."
"She said she couldn't hold on anymore because of her age and she wanted me to accompany her, meow."
"Then it's Laosike."
"You're welcome! Just ask Meow, don't you spend a lot of time with me every day?"
"Yeah, it's okay."
"Oh, then I'm relieved. Whose bed does this belong to?"
"It's mine. It hasn't been confiscated yet. The institute is a bit far from the dormitory area, so I'll stay here."
"So that's how it is, meow"
Sick had an ominous premonition.
Day 11, Headquarters Restaurant.
Eudora Dilu stared at the approaching young man for a long time before recognizing that it was Li Fan.
"Li Fan, why do you seem to have lost weight?"
Eudora asked curiously.
"Maybe it's because I haven't eaten much lately. How have you been lately?"
Li Fan said, pulling the sleeping Si Ke off his neck and placing him on the table.
"I'm learning the True Charge Slash, but I'm still lacking in strength. It would be great if Xiong Da was there too."
Eudora pinched her wrist and said.
"I studied in the cat hunting center of the headquarters and learned many skills, meow!"
Dilu said, taking out a honey worm from the bulging backpack on his back.
"If you are injured during the battle, meow, just pierce the honey nectar carried by this honey insect and splash it within the range, and it will have a strong healing effect."
Dilu introduced.
"That's true, but this honey bug looks like it's not light when it's full of honey."
"Well, it's a bit heavy, and it takes up a lot of space in my backpack, but I've been doing strength training and I'll soon be able to adapt to the load."
Dilu explained.
"That's right, let's work together."
"Li Fan, what are you studying during this time?"
Eudora asked.
"There are no actual results yet, and even if there are, they are not suitable to be made public."
"So secretive."
Eudora was a little surprised.
Sick smelled the aroma of food on the table, kept inhaling through his nose, and slowly opened his lifeless eyes.
"The researcher who never sleeps is so scary, meow"
Li Fan pushed his dinner plate over, and Xi Keqiang cheered up and started eating.
After two days of rest, Li Fan not only took a deep sleep to replenish his energy, but also sorted out the information obtained during this period.
In front of the principal's office of Longli Academy, Li Fan knocked on the door twice, opened it and walked in.
"You're here Li Fan, wait a moment"
Vegasa selected two drawings from the drawings covering the desk and gave them to Sick. After giving some details, Sick rolled up the drawings and left with them.
Lifting the green plant pot in the corner, Vegasa took out a silver key from the bottom of the pot and inserted it into the tall metal cabinet placed against the wall.
After watching for a moment, a square gray stone box was moved out.
"The female fire dragon ruby that was prepared by the guild is inside, but the other party was very vigilant about leaving a mark on the material, so be sure not to let it appear in the world."
"Well, I didn't quite understand Dean."
Li Fan didn't know why.
"This gem was allocated from the guild in the name of studying the Celestial Comet Dragon. Although the other party knew that this statement was most likely false, it was still delivered, so you still have to respect it."
Vegasa whispered.
This is also ok
"Don't worry, Dean, I will never sell it."
"In addition, if you want to integrate Baoyu into equipment, it is best to do it in the headquarters workshop. The processing of Baoyu requires encapsulation, which has extremely high requirements on craftsmanship."
Vegasa reminded.
"I have no plans to process the equipment in the short term. It is mainly used for ecological research."
"Oh? Researching gems on monsters is really rare in this direction. It seems that there is no related category in the Ancient Dragon Observatory. If there are any results, I hope to submit a research report as soon as possible. Maybe I can get more gems from the guild.
"
Vegasa gives advice.
"Submitting a research report, can we allocate more gems from the guild?"
This is the first time Li Fan has heard of this method of obtaining materials.
"Yes, in the current academic field, except for ancient dragons and dragon disease, the Guild is stronger than Longli Academy in other aspects of ecological research, such as the discovery and tracking of special individuals, as well as this time about heaven and earth.
The research on the comet dragon is all led by the Dragon Li Institute. If the guild wants to share first-hand research reports, it must pay something."
Vegasa explained.
Li Fan understood that although Longli Institute seemed very heroic, its full name was the Institute of Dragon History and it was an independent academic institution.
If you want to share information, you must either provide an equivalent research report in exchange, or provide convenience for research.
Otherwise, if Ryuuriin fights monsters on its own, conducts research on its own, and then shares the results for free, wouldn't this be taken advantage of?
No wonder Eudora was so determined to establish an investigation agency.
Even if she can't track the Steel Dragon, as long as she accumulates enough research results, she can still share the information with the guild.
"Remember to take precautions when researching. Jade-like materials have strong energy leakage."
"Thank you, Dean."
Li Fan took the gray stone box.
In the afternoon, the Flame left the headquarters airport.
The primary purpose of this trip was to find an uninhabited place to conduct research.
Secondly, during the time when the monsters were studying mutations, they had not come out of the ball to hunt for food for a long time.
Li Fan opened the stone box on the square table in his cabin, and a round jade stone that was red and green appeared.
While observing carefully, I took notes.
The red jade of the female fire dragon is about the size of a basketball, with a smooth surface without any cracks. There are circular marks left on the top and bottom, which are artificial marks left by the guild.
There is a green mist-like gas moving inside, and an unknown red shimmer radiates outward from the inside of the jade.
Li Fan stopped writing at this point, looked at his hands that were slightly warm under the red light, and continued writing.
The spilled energy was initially inferred to be harmful radiation, and no obvious physical abnormalities were detected after short-term exposure.
After the preliminary investigation was completed, Li Fan quickly fastened the top cover of the gray stone box.
No wonder Dean Vegasa said that gems need to be encapsulated during processing and protected when close to them.
But what can I do to protect myself from harmful radiation?
Don't let yourself turn into the Hulk if you don't understand the monster's mutation.
Concrete seems to have a good protective effect
Li Fan immediately thought of Shasha.
The next problem is the storage of the female fire dragon ruby.
Since it is suspected of releasing harmful radiation, it is definitely not acceptable to place it in a cabin for daily living.
The cargo hold is full of all kinds of frozen food, and there will definitely be a risk of contamination if stored for a long time.
Li Fan held the stone box and searched around the Yanhuo, and finally found that the bow of the ship was a good place.
Normally, no one from the team comes here at all.
So several ropes and cable locks on the deck were used to bind the stone box under the bronze bell on the bow of the ship.
After two days of flight, the Flame hovered in an unknown area without a map.
Monsters that can fly are released one after another and enter a state of free hunting.
"Don't fly too far. Come back early when you're full. If you get beaten up, remember to shout!"
After Li Fan finished his instructions, he came to the ground with the team.
At a lakeside, Shasha flew out of the ball and appeared on the ground.
After talking about the needs, Shasha dug the ground with his head and dug about half a meter deep.
After stepping on the mud in the pit with the soles of your feet, the rustling indicates that the quality of the soil here is not good.
"There is another lake going north, you can try it there."
Dilu took the map he drew and pointed out a direction, and the team immediately started moving forward.
Not long after, Kuku flew back to the deck of the Flame with a shield insect in his mouth.
Wow!
Kuku spat out the shield bug curled up into a ball, raised his feet and kicked it towards the driver's platform.
"Kuku! I want to guard the airship, meow! I can't play with you yet, and don't peck at the shield bug on the deck! If it pecks through the deck, the repair fee will be very expensive!"
Ferry issued a warning.
Cuckoo!
Standing on the bulwark, Ye Ye shouted in agreement.
Kuku's eyes darkened, and he picked up the shield insect and went to the middle deck. As a result, except for two Yuyun wooden stakes for training and a wooden frame for placing training weapons, there was nothing else.
Wow
Kuku couldn't hide his disappointment and lowered his head.
Kuku, who had been locked up in the Poké Ball for a long time, was originally looking forward to this outdoor trip, but everyone seemed to have something to do.
Wow!
Kuku suddenly remembered that there was a bronze bell on the bow of the ship that could be rung.
Not only is the sound loud, but every time the peck makes a sound, Dilu will come over in a short time.
Wow!
Kuku raised his wings, raised his neck, and ran to the bow of the ship happily.
"Kuku! Don't rush meow on the deck! It can easily affect the balance of the airship!"
Ferry said, gripping the steering wheel.
Kuku raised his huge beak and was about to peck at the bronze bell.
Suddenly, I noticed a stone box on the deck that was fastened by a rope.
Wow?
Kuku tilted his head and started to watch.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The distant copper bell rang.
"what's the situation?"
Li Fan looked back at the sky and looked at where the Flame was.
"It's so strange, meow, who is ringing the bell when I'm not here? Is it Kuku again?"
Dilu speculated.
"Kuku has been in the ball for too long, so he can knock it if he likes."
Li Fan suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Li Fan, the mud Shasha solidifies too slowly just by being exposed to the sun. Why don't you let the little fool and naughty heat it up?"
Eudora, who was wearing a mud mask by the lake, turned around and realized that Li Fan was missing, and was about to look for him.
Naughty fell down, and Li Fan not far away threw out two worm threads and jumped onto Naughty's neck.
"Uh, why are you so anxious?"
Eudora was a little curious.
After a while, Li Fan swung the worm thread and flew to the deck.
"Kuku! What's wrong with you, nya?"
Gugu! Gugu!
Fei Rui and Ye Ye looked at Kuku who fell to the ground and called out anxiously.
Wow
Kuku let out a feeble cry, his eyelids constantly sinking.
Li Fan glanced at the empty stone box on the bow of the ship and quickly came to Kuku.
Gently stroke the scales with your palms, starting from the neck.
Finally, in the abdominal cavity, Li Fan's hand felt a warmth through the scales.
"The fire bag of the big strange bird is in the chest, the heat source in the abdominal cavity."
Li Fan sighed helplessly, feeling that the matter was already clear.
At this time, the handheld prompt sounds.
Remembering that the handheld device could check the status of monsters, Li Fan quickly took it out and looked for a way to rescue Kuku.
When he saw the latest prompt, Li Fan was immediately stunned.
The big strange bird (Kuku) is mutating! Please take care of it!
