Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 473: Chapter 468: Maritime Exploration Diary

Upon hearing the five men’s agreement, Xiao Mu finally showed a smile, while Bai Heguang and Wang Chen also stood down from their battle-ready stances.

“Now that everyone agrees, let’s discuss the details of the alliance,”

Xiao Mu waved the documents in his hand, saying, “To facilitate our discussion on the legislation, we propose establishing a council. Each party will appoint representatives to serve as council members, and we will elect a speaker to oversee the overall situation. What do you all think?”

The five men pondered for a moment. One of them, who seemed to be the leader, stood up and asked, “How will the council members be allocated?”

Xiao Mu smiled and said, “The five of you are the oldest beings in the sea area and always work together, so naturally, you should join together. Therefore, five representatives can join from the sea beast side.”

“As for our human side, for the sake of fairness, we will also add five members.”

“Five?”

The five old men were stunned, their gazes unconsciously drifting towards Bai Qi.

“What the hell, they’re not asking me to join, are they?”

Bai Qi’s face changed upon hearing this. He was about to refuse when he was mocked by the Jiuyou Darkbird.

“What are you thinking? Besides the three Titled Legendaries, the ones qualified to join are naturally myself and that big guy.”

Jiuyou Darkbird and Morning Star?

Well, since the other side was comprised of sea beasts, it seemed okay to include some pets on their side.

“Acceptable.”

The five old men nodded and asked, “What about the speaker?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mu shrugged and looked at Old Lady Fan, who was busy teasing Delta.

“You want me to serve as the speaker? I’m sorry, but I’m not interested.”

Without hesitation, Old Lady Fan refused. She preferred spending her time watching the little fellows and didn’t have the leisure time to manage a council.

“Old Lady Fan, the establishment of the Deep Sea Alliance is all because of your influence. If you don’t serve as the speaker, these sea beasts will not accept it.”

Xiao Mu immediately tried to persuade her upon seeing this, but Old Lady Fan kept shaking her head with no interest at all.

“Don’t worry, as the speaker, you won’t have much to do on a regular basis. We’ll only call upon you when conflicts arise between our two parties.”

“Moreover, I’m sure you wouldn’t want Delta to be targeted by these sea beasts while roaming in the sea area, would you?”

Hearing Xiao Mu’s words, Old Lady Fan fell silent. Looking at Delta in her arms, she said, “Alright, I’ll accept the position of speaker!”

“That’s the best solution!”

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Mu nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the five old men again. “With this, our eleven-person council for the Deep Sea Alliance is established.”

“Hmm, we hope that, in the future, our sea beasts and humans can work together harmoniously.”

The five old men shook hands with Xiao Mu, signifying their agreement to cooperate. They then looked at the Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon and said, “The five of us don’t like managing complicated matters, so we’re leaving you in charge of the details of future cooperation.”

“Yes!”

The Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon nodded and then looked somewhat troubled at Bai Qi. “However, before we start official negotiations, could we ask Master Bai Qi to leave the heritage of the Dragon Clan here.”

Given the opportunity of the sea beasts’ gathering, the Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon had learned about the events in the Dragon Emperor Tomb from the Nether Sea Snake.

Of course, this included the fact that Bai Qi had taken away eight tombstones.

“Hmm? What Dragon Clan heritage? I don’t understand?”

Realizing everyone’s eyes were on him, Bai Qi immediately put on an innocent expression, looking as if he knew nothing.

“Bai Qi, give it up. It’s a serious matter concerning the Deep Sea Alliance and shouldn’t be undermined.”

Seeing this, Bai Heguang shook his head and said, “Even if you take it back, the heritage of the Dragon Clan will be jointly managed by our eleven-person council. It’s better to leave it here.”

“Well, okay …”

Only after hearing Bai Heguang’s words did Bai Qi reluctantly ask Delta to bring out the heritage of the Dragon Clan. His reluctant expression resembled a child whose toy had been taken away.

“You kid, the resources you’ll get after the establishment of the Deep Sea Alliance won’t be inferior to the Dragon Clan’s heritage. Look at the big picture.”

Seeing this, Xiao Mu couldn’t help but laugh, “Speaking of which, you are a major contributor to this operation. Do you fancy taking up a part-time position in the Deep Sea Alliance?”

“Part-time job? Are there any benefits?”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi’s eyes lit up and he went straight to the point.

“A perk? How about appointing you as the head of the technical department in the Alliance? It should suit your expertise.”

Xiao Mu leaned closer to Bai Qi and whispered, “The technical department is involved in constructing the headquarters of the Deep Sea Alliance. You could get the Super God Evolution Research Institute also involved in it. It’s a profitable deal~”

“I’m in!”

…

A week had passed since the establishment of the Deep Sea Alliance, and the eleven-member council was still discussing the various details of the alliance.

Since this involved the initial cooperation between humans and sea beasts, it was naturally best to clarify everything beforehand to avoid disputes in future cooperation.

However, the others weren’t idle either. The twelve legendary sea beasts, along with the Federation and Association Beast Masters, had already started to build the headquarters of the Deep Sea Alliance around the Dragon Emperor’s relics.

Because of this, Bai Qi truly recognized the strength of the Federation.

“I never heard before that the Federation has such a large naval force…”

Bai Qi was lying on Delta, looking at the busy machinery and sea beasts in front of him, murmuring softly.

Whether it was the terrifying submarine group that shocked the field that day, or the current seabed construction troops, Bai Qi completely disbelieved that the Federation was not prepared in advance.

“So am I. I never heard my father mention the existence of the Five Old Men.”

Upon hearing this, the Nether Sea Snake nodded repeatedly, still unable to react to what had just transpired.

“By the way, Ming Dian, why are you hovering around me all day instead of helping your father?”

Ming Dian, the name of the Nether Sea Snake.

Hearing Bai Qi’s question, Ming Dian instantly put on a sycophantic smile, saying, “Father said we must serve Brother Four and big brother, so he didn’t arrange tasks for us.”

Brother Four, that’s Delta.

Because he recognized Delta as his big brother, Alpha and other pets were automatically upgraded to the same status, according to the order of the contract, as big brother, second brother, third brother, and so on.

However, since Alpha’s title overlapped with Delta’s, upon Delta’s strong request, his title was changed to Brother Four.

Alpha and the others didn’t feel any difference; after all, they were all beaten. But the wormwood was very satisfied.

Having been a younger brother for so long, the rare arrival of Lao Liu, who immediately became the popular one, meant that his status was still at the bottom. Now that he had thirteen younger brothers, he was, of course, very happy.

“That’s right, that’s right.”

Ming Dian’s words were met with nodding approvals from the Deep Sea Thirteen Protectors standing around, all showing the same flattering look as Ming Dian.

Not to mention that Bai Qi brought them the Dragon Clan heritage, just the background of Delta and Bai Qi was enough for them to treat Bai Qi and his friends with such an attitude.

Delta was the godson of the future chairman of the Deep Sea Alliance, and possessed the True Dragon bloodline which they, the sea beasts, most aspired to.

As for Bai Qi, he was also a disciple of a council member of the Deep Sea Alliance and was fierce enough to take on multiple challengers alone.

If they angered these two, there would be no good end for them.

“Alright then…”

Upon hearing their words, Bai Qi shrugged, gazed at the alliance’s headquarters base that was gradually taking shape, stretched lazily, and said, “I’m going to go fishing somewhere, are you coming?”

The Thirteen Protectors cast glances at one another, only Bai Qi would declare that he’s going fishing in front of a group of sea beasts.

“Big Brother, you want to collect materials and strengthen Lao Liu from the sea zone, right?”

Ming Dian rubbed his hands together, saying, “If so, I know a place that has rich water and Ice Clan resources, so you won’t have to fish slowly.”

“Oh? There’s such a place?”

Bai Qi was immediately interested. Although the flesh and blood of sea beasts were highly nutritious and topped in enhancing physique, the probability of producing high-level materials was not high.

According to Ming Dian, in order to survive in the vast sea zone, sea beasts almost always prioritize increasing their size.

Therefore, the way sea beasts gauge the strength of each other was mostly by size.

It was precisely because of this that sea beasts rarely had parts where energy was highly concentrated.

However, Gamma quite liked it here.

Seeing Bai Qi’s interest, Ming Dian was secretly relieved, saying, “Of course there is, based on the time, the Ice Clan resources there might be even more, and it would be of great help to Lao Liu.”

“Alright then, let’s go right away and return as soon as possible.”

Bai Qi patted Delta, who instantly understood, showed off his True Dragon body of over 10 meters, and Ming Dian and others also revealed their true forms, heading towards the deeper parts of the sea zone.

Although he was not classified as an aquatic creature, Delta, possessing the body of a True Dragon, also had the ability to move freely in the sea. As he passed by, all sea beasts bowed their heads in submission.

The suppression of the True Dragon’s bloodline on the sea beasts was nearly impossible to resist.

“Brother Four, Big Brother, we’re here.”

After what seemed like a long journey, Ming Dian, who was leading the way at the front, finally stopped. Bai Qi discovered that he had arrived in a forest of ice pillars.

“This should still be in the South Sea, right? How can there be such a large frozen area?”

Bai Qi looked around curiously.

“We don’t know the specific reason, my father told me it’s been like this for a very long time. When it’s spring and winter the Death Ice Forest would condense these ice pillars, and they would become water tornadoes in summer and autumn.”

Ming Dian shook his head, saying, “But the resources here have always been rich. If it hadn’t been for its fickle climate which most sea creatures found hard to adapt to, it wouldn’t be this calm.”

Bai Qi nodded, understanding, and rode Delta over to an ice pillar.

This ice pillar seemed to extend from the sea surface down to the seabed, freezing the surrounding area as well, with small shrimps, that didn’t manage to escape in time, frozen in place.

Like this ice pillar, countless others lined up in front of Bai Qi. From a distance, it did resemble a forest.

“It is said that there have been battles underneath this Death Ice Forest, and the water tornado here sweeps them up, and they are then frozen by the Death Ice Pillar.”

Saying that, Ming Dian went up to an ice pillar, swung his tail hard, and the ice pillar shattered with a loud bang. Simultaneously, a pearl exuding a cold aura fell from it.

“Damn, it’s just a Cold Light Pearl.”

Ming Dian threw the pearl away with some disgust and continued knocking, and the other sea beasts did the same.

From their looks, they’ve done this quite often.

“Darn, this is like a sea version of a blind box? This is challenging my luck~”
