Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

27 Chapter 26: I Want to Fight Ten People
Translator: 549690339
This time, it wasn’t Ice Ghosts that emerged from the ice wall, but their evolved version, Ice Ghost Guards.

[Name]: Ice Ghost Guard

[Nature]: Ice, Undead

[Level]: First Stage Level One

[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Elite

[Racial skills]: Frost Strike, Frozen Breath

Despite being a high-grade elite like the Ice Ghost, the Ice Ghost Guard was no longer round but had evolved into a humanoid form. The ice spear in its hand was clearly more threatening than the frozen fangs.

Especially Frozen Breath, although it might not cover as large an area as Blizzard, its activation speed was significantly faster. Coupled with the equally swift Frost Strike, many trainee Beast Masters would likely fall there.

However, for Alpha, there was no difference between Zero Stage Tenth Level and First Stage Level One. Rather, the Ice Ghost Guards, who’d lost their ability to fly, were easier to deal with than the Ice Ghosts.

At least there wasn’t that much jumping around now.

Sure enough, faced with the weapon-bearing Ice Ghost Guards, Alpha fully showcased the results of his recent practice, easily breaking the limbs of the Ice Ghost Guards and temporarily disabling their combat abilities.

Creak creak.

(Master, come quickly!)

As the first beneficiary of the Evolution Egg, Alpha roughly understood Bai Qi’s intentions. Therefore, he was particularly proactive this time, only temporarily disabling the capabilities of the Ice Ghost Guards, allowing Bai Qi to progress safely.

“Not bad. If there’s another Soul Stone this time, I’ll give you one.”

Seeing this, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, pressing his hand on the head of the Ice Ghost Guard. The progress of the Evolution Egg grew again, but presumably because of its connection with the Ice Ghost, it only rose by five percent.

“I hope the next challenge isn’t another Ice Ghost variant.”

Bai Qi released his hand somewhat disappointedly while Alpha swiftly beheaded the Ice Ghost Guard. A Soul Stone once again appeared on the spot.

There was another one!

Bai Qi quickly picked up the Soul Stone. After comparing it with the one from the first level, he found that the quality of this Soul Stone was significantly higher. If sold, it would definitely fetch a higher price.

“Alpha, this one is yours.”

Thinking about this, Bai Qi handed over the Soul Stone he had obtained on the first level to Alpha without hesitation.

Creak creak.

Having endured for a long time, Alpha jubilantly hopped around on the spot, then forcefully crushed the Soul Stone. A small flame flew into Alpha’s body, merging with his existing Fire of Soul.

Soon, Alpha had absorbed all the flames from the Soul Stone. The Fire of Soul in his eye sockets became more vigorous, and even his bones glowed a bit more brightly.

[Name]: Shadow Bone Spike (Alpha)

[Race]: Undead Department

[Level]: Zero Stage Nine Level

[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Elite

[Racial skills]: Bone-breaking Reformation (Master), Steel Skeleton (Master), Continuous Slash (Skilled), Shadow Lotus Skill (Novice)

[Condition]: Evolvable

After eating the Soul Stone, Alpha’s level directly increased by one. His status was markedly stronger, and even the proficiency level of the Continuous Slash skill he had recently acquired had risen by one level.

If such were the case with rare materials, what about Epic materials? What about Mythical ones?

Bai Qi strongly suppressed his impulse to give the other two Soul Stones to Alpha as well and swiftly walked towards the Teleportation Circle to the next level.

The Secret Realm Tower had a total of nine levels—he’d only just climbed two. His journey was far from over~

…..

President Qin watched the footage before and after Bai Qi’s disappearance, his face growing increasingly stern. He turned to an instructor beside him and asked,

“What’s the progress on investigating that door? Is the disappearance of that trainee Beast Master confirmed to be related to that door?”

The instructor shook his head, replying, “We’ve tried many times, but that door seems to be a one-time entry point—we simply can’t get in.”

“As for that trainee Beast Master, he likely entered the Secret Realm Tower ahead of us.”

“Moreover, he even reached the fourth level.”

The instructor projected a video retrieved from Undead Hill onto the screen. Playing on the screen was the scene of the Secret Realm Tower.

The runes from the first three levels of the Secret Realm Tower had been activated, while the fourth level was faint, indicating that it had not been successfully challenged.

President Qin fell silent for a while, then ordered the instructor, “Have people guard the entrance. Once that young man comes out, bring him straight to me.”

The instructor appeared to understand and asked, “What about this training session?”

“Continue as normal.”

…..

The fourth level of the Secret Realm Tower.

Bai Qi looked speechlessly at the ten Ice Ghosts surrounding Alpha, his expression twisted.

The enemy on the first level was an Ice Ghost, the second level was an Ice Ghost Guard, and the third level was the advanced form of the Ice Ghost Guard, the Ice Swordsman.

[Name]: Ice Swordman

[Race]: Ice, Undead

[Level]: First Stage Level Three

[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Elite

[Racial skills]: Frost Slash, Frozen Breath, Ice Ghost Slash

Although the difficulty of the third level was not low, it was still within Bai Qi’s predictions. Alpha defeated the Ice Swordsman with his superb martial arts skills.

However, for this fourth level, the master of the Secret Realm Tower completely let loose.

Although Bai Qi expected the increase in enemy numbers, he didn’t anticipate it to suddenly jump to ten.

Secret Realm Tower, are you messing with me, or did you flunk math? Come, come, let me tutor you.

“Alpha, let’s withdraw first. The number is a bit too many,” Bai Qi remarked as he watched the Ice Ghosts slowly closing in. He was thinking of leaving, and the Husky beside him was nodding so vigorously it was a blur.

Unlike the man and the dog, Alpha seemed quite excited. After looking at the numerous Ice Ghosts around him, the Fire of Soul conveyed waves of fighting spirit.

Creak creak.

(Master, I want to fight ten!)

“Um, let’s give it a try then.”

Feeling Alpha’s intense fighting spirit, Bai Qi was somewhat helpless but still agreed to Alpha’s request.

In any case, the ferocious beasts wouldn’t attack him. If Alpha was defeated, he could instantly recall Alpha and leave the Secret Realm Tower.

However, once they are back, he wouldn’t let Alpha watch those movies anymore—those seem to have made him crazy.

Tsk, if he had known this earlier, he should have given the other two Soul Stones to Alpha as well. He didn’t think that at this level, Alpha wouldn’t be able to defeat these Ice Ghosts even if he can’t break through to the First Stage.

As for now, even if he can win, the fight will probably be a tough one. “Alpha, separate from them and look for opportunities to ambush.”

Since the enemies were numerous, straight-on fighting was impossible. The only option was kite tactics.

I wonder if this Secret Realm reward supports installment payment? A certain number for a certain number of kills?
