Chapter 357: Chapter 353: Original Sin Elixir

Notice that there was another King-level aura behind him, the already somewhat flustered Porcupine-Man’s actions became even more chaotic, but his attacks became increasingly fierce, somewhat like a frantic fight to the death.

Alpha took note of the situation and didn’t rush. His Sword of the Wind Chaser danced flexibly, each swing taking a slice of flesh from the Porcupine-Man. Even though the Porcupine-Man’s recovery speed was extremely fast, it gradually started to fall behind.

After all, apart from the sharpness of the Sword of the Wind Chaser itself, each attack also brought with it endless wind blades from tricky angles, which left the Porcupine-Man not knowing where to defend.

Bai Qi wanted live capture, so Alpha didn’t choose the Sword of Death or Undying Flame. Instead, he chose the Sword of the Wind Chaser to defeat the Porcupine-Man.

The Porcupine-Man also seemed to know Alpha’s plan. He forcibly blocked Alpha’s attack with his sharp teeth, stepped back, and threw a bottle into his mouth before letting out a roar towards the full moon above.

“Damn, Porcupine-Man howling at the moon, could it be that the werewolf cheated on the porcupine!”

Seeing this, Bai Qi was taken aback, the gossip fire burning in his eyes, then he saw moonlight fall from the sky and land on the Porcupine-Man.

In an instant, the Porcupine-Man’s body inflated, and green electric sparks moved around it.

In a daze, a giant porcupine could be seen behind the Porcupine-Man, angrily roaring at them.

Sensing the change in the Porcupine-Man, the flames in Alpha’s eyes suddenly flared up, a strong will to fight soared into the sky, remotely confronting the porcupine.

In a flash, the Porcupine-Man was the first to attack, the spikes on his back like a rain of arrows attacking Alpha, the blinking green sparks even from afar could make one feel the toxic breath on them.

Seeing this, Alpha clutched the Wind and Fire Swords, and launched a direct thrust at the Porcupine-Man on the spot. The small whirlwind wrapped in a monstrous red flame rolled towards the spike arrow rain.

Boom!

The tiny flame met the first spike and exploded instantly, turning into a fire tornado that engulfed all the spikes.

As the violent wind danced, glimpses of wind blades passed by, cutting off all the porcupine’s spikes, and then were burned into nothingness by the undying flames.

However, just then, the Porcupine-Man’s hideous head suddenly burst out of the flames, the pain of the Undying Flame making it even more violent. It roared at Alpha and two huge green light teeth stabbed at Alpha.

Seeing this, Alpha’s eyes turned cold, threw the Undying Flame Sword aside, and both hands seized the Sword of the Wind Chaser.

An unremarkable horizontal slash, with the blue sword blade crossing the sky.

The light teeth shattered, and the once ferocious Porcupine-Man suddenly went silent and fell heavily onto the ground.

Alpha put away his long sword and slowly landed in front of the Porcupine-Man. After Bai Qi confirmed that the Porcupine-Man had lost combat power, he carefully approached him.

However, upon seeing the true identity of the Porcupine-Man, Bai Qi was struck in place.

“A human?!”

…

Beast Master Association.

President Qin’s face was solemn, looking at the Porcupine-Man in front of him that had completely turned back into human form, he sighed.

“I didn’t expect that the Beast Soul Warriors of the tribes could reach this level, turning humans into a half-beastman state.”

“Half-beastman? Can such a thing be done?”

Bai Qi was a bit curious. Apart from legendary creatures and humans having a bloodline passed down, he had never heard about others, and didn’t expect to actually witness such a species today.

“The half-beastman I’m talking about is not the kind of mixed-blood species you’re thinking of, but the product born after a Beast Soul Warrior fuses with his Martial soul.”

President Qin shook his head, saying, “In this state, even if the Beast Soul Warrior does not summon the ferocious beasts’ will to descend, they can display a strength not weaker than a King-level creature, equivalent to the strength of a Fifth Stage Beastmaster among humans.”

“Fifth Stage Beastmaster?”

Hearing the words, Bai Qi was taken aback, thinking of the scene where the Porcupine-Man was being toyed with by Alpha, he obviously didn’t believe it.

Seeing Bai Qi’s disbelief, President Qin couldn’t help but laugh, and said, “Don’t measure your peers with yourself in the future. I just checked the surveillance from the Snare. This Porcupine-Man’s strength, although barely at the level of a Fifth Stage Beastmaster, without clear intelligence, ordinary Beastmasters really might not match him.”

“Is that so…”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi scratched his head, then suddenly thought of something, and said, “The Snare? When did the Snare also monitor outside the city? The distance from the Flower Sea to the city should be quite far, right?”

“Cough, cough, cough… Isn’t it because I was worried about you having an accident, so I asked the Snare to keep an eye on you.”

President Qin coughed awkwardly and swept this topic aside directly. Then he turned serious and said, “Your discovery is very useful. The Beast Soul Warriors have broken their previous limitations with the tribe. In future battles with the tribe, we need to be cautious.”

Hearing this, Bai Qi nodded. Then he took out a vial of elixir from his bosom and handed it to President Qin, saying, “During the battle with the Porcupine-Man, I saw it take this elixir, and its combat power was noticeably improved afterwards. Have you seen this, President?”

“Elixir?”

President Qin took the elixir from Bai Qi’s hand in confusion.

The elixir was completely black and looked no different from ink, but if one looked at it for a long time, their spirit would be unconsciously drawn in, as if their soul was about to be assimilated by this black elixir.

“If I guess correctly, this should be the Original Sin Elixir.”

President Qin pocketed the Original Sin Elixir, a smile appearing on his face.

“Looking like this, this guy must have run into you while spreading the Original Sin Elixir, so he attacked you.”

“The recent restlessness of the ferocious beasts is because of this elixir. Even though we have confiscated some before, they were obviously dilute and it was difficult to develop an appropriate antidote. The concentration of the one you have is not low, it may help.”

“I see.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly, increasingly curious about the Original Sin Elixir.

He initially thought that the Original Sin Elixir was something like a frenzy potion, but judging by the state of the Porcupine-Man, it appeared to have other uses.

Hmm, he’d have Schuck and the others research it when he got back. There might be some gains.

“Leave this Beast Soul Warrior to me, the Federation will be very interested. As for you…”

President Qin looked at Bai Qi, hesitated for a moment, and said, “I’m confident in your current strength, but the wilderness is still different from other places, it’s best for you to go out during the day.”

“Well, I understand.”

Bai Qi glanced awkwardly at President Qin’s pajamas. After finding out that the Porcupine-Man had turned into a human, Bai Qi immediately took him to the Beast Master Association to find President Qin.

A confused President Qin, worried about Bai Qi’s safety, rushed over without even having time to change out of his pajamas. Looking at it now, it seemed a little inappropriate.

But Bai Qi was also surprised—President Qin actually liked to wear cute-style pajamas~

Seeing Bai Qi’s gradually weirder gaze, President Qin blushed and kicked Bai Qi out.

“You rascal, if you come at this time again, I’ll deduct all your points!”

“Cough cough …President, it’s not good to take out your personal feelings on me, after all, you wouldn’t want others to know that you like to wear…”

“Get lost now!”

Bai Qi nimbly dodged the book thrown by President Qin and scrammed out of the Beast Master Association.

It was still midnight, and apart from a few patrolling Beast Masters and mechanical creatures, not a soul was in sight.

Ferocious beasts were on edge, and even the city wasn’t necessarily safe. So, after ten o’clock, all the facilities in Gusu City would shut down, and citizens were not allowed to linger outside for too long.

Bai Qi looked up at the night sky; the starlight was still twinkling, but he knew that some of the light was just a disguise of the Snare.

“Being singled out by the Snare, I don’t know whether to be happy or unhappy.”

Bai Qi smacked his lips. Although it was for his safety, the feeling of being watched wasn’t very pleasant.

“I wonder if the teacher and the others are being watched like this.”

…

The next day.

Bai Qi rubbed his groggy eyes, not very willingly getting out of bed.

By the time he got back home last night, he immediately went to the Secret Realm Base, handed another Original Sin Elixir to Yu for analysis, checked on Schuck’s progress, and didn’t get home until four or five in the morning.

But no sooner had he laid down than he was awakened by the urgent ringing of the doorbell.

“It’s so early, could it be that President Qin is looking for me again…”

Remembering how he interrupted President Qin’s sleep the night before, Bai Qi seriously suspected that President Qin was coming for his revenge.

Thinking about this, Bai Qi reluctantly opened the door, intending to see who President Qin had sent to wake him. But to his surprise, he found someone suddenly rushing towards him.

Oh crap, is it a comrade of the Porcupine-Man seeking revenge?

Bai Qi was taken aback, but when he saw another familiar figure smiling at the door, he was stunned.

“Dad? And, is this mom?”

Luo Zhu released Bai Qi and pinched his face hard, saying, “How could you have this expression when you see your parents after such a long time? Don’t tell me…you’re hiding someone in the house?”

Seeing Luo Zhu’s gossiping expression, Bai Qi gave a wry smile, saying, “Mom, can’t you think of something else?”

“By the way, didn’t Jiuli Group just announce the Ancient Species? Don’t mom and dad need to be there to keep an eye on things?”

Bai Yan shook his head, saying, “The resurrected Ancient Species is very stable and has basically adapted to the current world. The following are some daily data monitoring, others can handle that, we are not needed.”

“I see…”

Bai Qi nodded in understanding, saying, “Then how long are you and dad planning to stay at home this time?”

“This research has taken quite a bit of time, so the top has asked us to rest for a while.”

Bai Yan patted Bai Qi on the shoulder, saying, “If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to rest for at least a month.”

“Uh, dad, why does your opening sound so familiar?”

Bai Qi’s eyes twitched as he thought of Bai Heguang, whose vacation had been interrupted.

Should he tell them about the Dragon Cub Beast?

And the Original Sin Elixir, it should also be included in the biochemical project, right?

He felt like bringing these up would bring an early end to his parents’ vacation…
