Chapter 516: Chapter 511: I Regret It

“I regret it…”

Bai Qi’s eyes twitched as he looked behind him.

At this time, Husky was lying contentedly on a luxurious carriage, while Alpha and his retinue, except for the Light Armor Sword Rider, were in charge of pulling the carriage and guarding it.

As for Bai Qi, he proudly assumed the role of a coachman.

“Why didn’t you warn me that humans here are servants.”

Bai Qi looked at Husky with a disgruntled expression on his face and asked.

“I did warn the Beast Master, but you insisted on this.”

Schuck smiled, and Beta, who was next to him, stretched luxuriously, spat out the bone in his mouth, and opened his mouth wide.

Awooooo!

(I’m hungry, human, hurry up and feed me!)

“Are you sure you want me to feed you?”

Bai Qi approached Beta with a smile on his face, while Alpha, who was acting as the guard leader, unconsciously reached for his hilt.

Grr?

(Boss, do you want my help?)

At this moment, Beta’s Insight into Everything kicked in autonomously. The overwhelming sense of danger made it jump up and obediently lie down in front of Bai Qi.

Awoooo~

(I was just joking with you, human~)

“That’s good.”

Bai Qi nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the few humans who had been knocked unconscious by him and said, “But it seems that the place of humans in the tribe is somewhat low.”

This carriage they were currently on was snatched from these humans; aside from the undead that pulled the carriage, these humans played the role of coachmen and servants.

As for the wolf beast they served…

Bai Qi took a glance at the large bones beside Beta, and the corner of his mouth twitched a bit.

It was just a Fourth Stage Elite, yet it had such a large entourage. The beasts of the tribe indeed knew how to enjoy themselves.

“Jerry, what have you learned from their souls?”

Bai Qi looked at Jerry and asked.

“This guy was scared, and his memories are somewhat messy, but I basically understand the situation.”

Jerry nodded and said, “The tribe ahead is called the Ghost Wolf Tribe, its leader is a Legendary Ghost Wolf that has the ability to control the undead.”

“However, it’s quite amazing that the Legendary Wolf, which is clearly a Ghost Wolf, somehow has a physical body and can even have offspring.”

“And the wolf beast we just ate was the offspring of the Legendary Wolf from the Ghost Wolf Tribe. It’s talent is average, so it is not particularly valued.”

Bai Qi was taken aback, “A Ghost Wolf with a physical body, it has taken over a body?”

“Maybe.”

Jerry shrugged, a look of longing flashing in his dark golden eyes.

If he could master this method, maybe he could act independently of his main body for a longer time.

“However, this Legendary Ghost Wolf just established its tribe not long ago, the tribe has many new faces, which is very beneficial for our operation.”

Jerry paused, looked at Bai Qi and said, “At that time, all we need to do is to let Alpha and the Seven Sword Riders disguise themselves as servants, Beta impersonate the wolf beast of this tribe and I’ll impersonate your Martial Soul. We should be able to pass through here smoothly.”

“Can’t we sneak around? Isn’t it too dangerous to expose ourselves deliberately?”

“According to our observation, we encounter a ferocious beast every hundred meters or so. Are you sure, Beast Master?”

“Alright.”

Bai Qi nodded and said, “As for these humans…”

“Chief, don’t worry. I’ve brainwashed them. They’ll only remember they had been abandoned by their master, they won’t know anything else.”

Insect Herb flew over immediately and said, “I’ve already checked their dreams. Being abandoned by beasts in the tribe is a normal occurrence and won’t raise any suspicion.”

“Good, all of you have done well.”

Seeing his pets being so capable, Bai Qi was greatly comforted.

The Beast Master’s painstaking upbringing wasn’t in vain, it had achieved some results.

“Actually, we don’t have to be so nervous. The power structure of the tribes changes quickly, and there are often various unfamiliar ferocious beasts wandering around. These beasts don’t mind non-kind ferocious beasts joining their ranks, only their status will be a bit lower.”

“Even if they don’t join, there are still many Beast Soul Warriors passing by.”

Jerry looked at Bai Qi and said, “However, Beast Master, you must pay attention to hiding your identity. If you expose your Beast Master identity, that would be quite troublesome.”

“I understand.”

Bai Qi nodded, used the secret method to hide the Curse Mark on the back of his hand, took a plastic mask from Schuck and put it on his face.

Then, Bai Qi’s appearance began to change quickly. His eyes, nose, ears, and all other parts were changing rapidly. In no time, he switched to a completely unfamiliar face.

Seeing this, Jerry emerged from its main body, wrapped around Bai Qi, indistinguishable from an ordinary Beast Soul Warrior.

“With Schuck’s research on mimicry masks and your cooperation, Jerry, it should be no problem.”

Bai Qi took off the mask and nodded in satisfaction, then said, “But Nicholas’ injuries have not yet healed. We should return to the snow mountain and wait for a while.”

“By the way, let’s try to strengthen our combat power as much as possible.”

…

Atop the snow mountain.

In the face of Snow Doll’s eagerly expectant eyes, Bai Qi took out the Heart of the Iceberg and handed it to Snow Doll. Snow Doll’s eyes lit up immediately and bit into it.

“Stop! This is a mythical resource, it’s too wasteful to eat it as a snack!”

Bai Qi rushed to stop upon seeing this. Snow Doll watched as the food in its mouth was taken away, and its eyes filled with tears. Its body also began to vaporize gradually.

Awooo! Awooo!

(Human, you must stop him!)

Upon seeing this, Beta’s face immediately filled with terror. The shadow of electric shocks from his weak period hadn’t disappeared despite having grown stronger, let alone the terrifying thunderbolt from Cloud Child.

“Jie Ta, don’t worry. I’m not saying you can’t eat it, just that we need to change the way you eat it…”

Bai Qi could only soothe when he heard this, and Snow Doll finally became quiet.

Grumbling-type noises?

(Really?)

“Of course it’s true.”

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. Although Snow Doll hadn’t stopped using the Evolution Egg up till now, it still was her first time using additional materials.

After all, the way elements absorb energy was too crude and simple, and there was no need for the Evolution Egg to be involved.

But the Heart of the Iceberg was a mythical resource after all, so it’s better to treat it with more care.

As Bai Qi explained, Snow Doll slowly began to look forward to eating it. She held the Heart of the Iceberg ever so carefully in her arms, waiting for Bai Qi to use the Evolution Egg.

Seeing this, Bai Qi relaxed a bit and then activated the Evolution Egg.

However, the moment the Diamond Egg took form, Bai Qi had a sudden feeling of weakness throughout his body, and nearly stumbled onto the ground.

“Such a big energy expenditure, could it be its evolution? No, it shouldn’t be this easy reaching Emperor-level. It seems my bloodline has leveled up.”

Bai Qi laid back on the soft couch conjured by Gamma, quietly taking in the energy Gamma was sending him to recover, while expectations filled his eyes as he looked at the Diamon Egg in front of him.

In theory, Snow Doll had the highest potential. She previously received approval from two Elements’ Will. If she was properly nurtured, the position of the top damage-dealer in the team might truly move from Alpha to Snow Doll.

“I’m so excited~”

The geographical position of the snow mountain was excellent. While Snow Doll was evolving, Schuck also set up a long-distance telescope to complete the map of the area.

Even though the plan was to pass through the Ghost Wolf Tribe to return to the Federation, the tribe’s situation was special, and it’s better to have more back-up plans.

Crack…

The crisp sound of an egg cracking attracted Bai Qi and the others’ attention, and Bai Qi instantly got up from Gamma’s body and quickly rushed over.

Even though it was only a small crack that had surfaced, Bai Qi still felt an intense bone-chilling cold, and the surrounding snow and ice thickened once more as a result.

Yet almost immediately, the eggshell cracked again, and this time, it emitted a terrifying high temperature which made it impossible to approach. The surrounding snow and ice instantly melted, forming a small stream that flowed down the mountain.

This process continued to repeat over and over. The nearby snow and ice alternately froze and melted under the swift changes in temperature, which forced Bai Qi to keep a certain distance from the Diamond Egg.

“Could it be there is some problem?”

Old Lady Fan emphasized that he should strengthen Snow Doll’s ice-based skills, and Bai Qi understood why—it was to maintain the balance with Flame Soul.

But now, it seemed that Snow Doll was losing her balance?

Awooo, awooo …

(But how does this dog feel, that Jie Ta is inside the egg playing…)

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and when he listened attentively, he indeed heard laughter.

Alright then, she really was playing.

“Jie Ta, come out quickly.”

Bai Qi shook his head and called from a distance. After hearing Bai Qi’s summons, Snow Doll immediately broke the Diamond Egg and flew straight to Bai Qi.

While she looked similar to Snow Doll, half of the snowflakes on her cheeks had turned into flames, and even half of her hair and eyes had turned red.

“Because her ice skill is strong, did her fire skill start to show?”

Bai Qi’s eyes lit up. Snow Doll displayed her fire form for the first time when she broke the Element Gate, but ever since then, Bai Qi couldn’t get Snow Doll to switch on her own.

However, judging by how she looked now, it seemed she was able to switch on her own.

And, she seemed to have mastered the ability to fly?

Full of curiosity, Bai Qi placed his hand on the top of Jie Ta’s head.

…

“Water and Fire Child? Has she really reached a balanced state? But did her original skills all merge into Ice Soul?”

Bai Qi looked at the skill panel of Water and Fire Child, somewhat curious.

[Skill Name]: Ice Soul

[Skill Level]: Transcendent Level

[Skill Description]: The icy spirit hidden deep within the soul, pure as ice, unflappable even when the sky is falling.

…

“Mmm … as expected, the skill description is still as casual as ever.”

Bai Qi completely gave up on figuring out Jie Ta’s current state from the skill description and asked directly.

“Jie Ta, do you still have those previous skills and forms? Or have they all disappeared?”

Huh-huh?

(Skills and forms, let me think…?)
