Chapter 464: Thunder Fist Rabbit

The Thunder Rabbits stood in place, one by one, very obedient and cute.

Beads of sweat the size of beans emerged from their foreheads, and before they could drip onto the ground, they were already vaporized by the thunder.

Just a moment ago, that human had been suddenly surrounded by countless black Qi and vanished before the Thunder Rabbits.

Just as the Thunder Rabbits felt they were about to be free, an aura that felt as unfathomable as a vast sea descended from the sky.

They were all pressed so hard by the aura that they couldn't catch their breath.

Several Thunder Rabbits were almost scared to death by the pressure.

In their dying moments, they saw the thunderclouds above Thunder Island being pulled by a massive phantom.

Thunder gathered on the blade of the Thunder God Axe, and it slashed toward a figure that reached the sky.

The thunderclouds above Thunder Island were all squandered by Dahui.

Thunder Island, which had been shrouded in dark clouds, saw the clouds disperse at this moment, revealing its true appearance.

This magnificent heavenly might was enough to scare the Thunder Rabbits into wetting themselves.

The sun shone on Thunder Island for the first time.

"Oh no, in order to deal with the Reaper, the thunder in the thunderclouds has been completely exhausted."

Ye Bai patted his head, revealing a look of guilt.

"There should be other ways, right?"

Because the thunder above had dispersed, the signals that had been blocked here were instantly restored.

"Ye Bai, was there a fierce battle over there just now?"

"Why did the thunderclouds above suddenly dissipate completely?"

Lan Fa's message was transmitted over.

Ye Bai immediately sent a message to Lan Fa; he wanted to have Lan Fa pay attention to whether there were any more thunderclouds nearby.

To evolve the Thunder Rabbits, abundant energy was needed.

The message had just been sent.

Ye Bai saw cracks appearing on the ground one after another.

Purple vines emerged from the ground one by one.

These vines wove together, forming a Vine Sea.

Purple flowers bloomed, and after a short while, they turned into fruits.

"Is this Thunder Fruit?"

"A high-grade tree fruit that contains the power of thunder within its pulp."

"How could it appear here?"

Ye Bai was greatly puzzled.

The uses of Thunder Fruit are very extensive; whether it is the fruit, the peel, or the vines, they all have different effects.

Some vines that have grown for a few years can even be used to make Thunder God Whips.

The Thunder God Whip is covered in barbs; striking the ground with it makes a popping sound, and at the same time, a large amount of electric current surges out from the whip.

"No wonder Yan Country values Thunder Island so much; I thought it was because of the Thunder Cattle."

Ye Bai muttered to himself.

He had essentially learned the secret of the island.

Just at this moment, large helicopters appeared over the small island.

Rope ladders dropped down from the helicopters, and people wearing uniforms descended one after another.

"Lord Kuimulang, the Thunder Fruit is an important secret of Thunder Island; I hope Lord Kuimulang will keep this important secret for us."

The guardian of Thunder Island appeared, and she gave Ye Bai a few instructions.

She had originally stayed on Thunder Island specifically to observe when the thunderclouds would disperse.

Now that the thunderclouds had dispersed, she immediately notified the team members guarding Thunder Island.

There was an Undersea Base in the underground not far from Thunder Island.

That was why they were able to rush over so quickly to harvest the Thunder Fruit.

Ye Bai watched as these people harvested the Thunder Fruit with extreme proficiency, yet discarded the vines.

"Ah, wait, can't the vines still be used to refine Thunder God Whips?"

Ye Bai asked the guardian.

"Yes, we know, but our base already has many Thunder Fruit vines."

"The market for Thunder God Whips is currently oversupplied, so for the past few years, we have been leaving the vines behind whenever we harvest."

"The vines can become food for the Thunder Cattle, but because the vines are of the thunder attribute, they will all dissipate under the Thunder Light once the dark clouds appear again."

Her subtext was also very clear: there were too many vines piling up, and besides being used to refine Thunder God Whips, this type of vine had no great use.

Therefore, they would only harvest the most precious Thunder Fruit and abandon the vines on Thunder Island.

These guardians came quickly and left quickly; after harvesting the high-quality Thunder Fruit, they returned fully loaded.

"By the way, Lord Kuimulang, there is one thing I must remind you of."

"These Thunder Rabbits must be taken away after the experiment is finished."

"This is a protected area exclusive to the Thunder Cattle; you cannot let the Thunder Rabbits breed here and take away the Thunder Cattle's food."

"Thunder Rabbits are an invasive species and must absolutely not cause an alien invasion event here."

"You know that Thunder Rabbits love to dig holes; this is the island most suitable for the survival of the Thunder Cattle. Once the natural ecology on the island is destroyed, the Thunder Cattle may also die as a result."

"By the way, you have one and a half days left to stay on the island; please mind the time."

"Once the time is up, no matter what important thing you are doing, I must ask you to leave, unless you have one of the Twelve Pillars of the Nation to vouch for you."

After the guard bowed to Ye Bai, he grabbed the rope ladder and left this place.

At this moment, Ye Bai discovered that these Thunder Rabbits were walking away one after another.

They seemed to have been attracted by these vines.

Their split lips opened, and the vines, which appeared hard and covered in barbs, were being frantically devoured by the Thunder Rabbits just like spicy gluten sticks.

Ye Bai:????

Is this stuff really that delicious?

How come the Thunder Rabbits look like starving ghosts?

In any case, the island is covered in vines, and after the next time the dark clouds gather, the vines will all vanish amidst the sound of Thunder Light, so it is better to let the Thunder Rabbits eat their fill.

The Thunder Cattle cannot handle so many vines, and they can also survive by absorbing the free Thunder energy in the air.

Beep, beep, beep.

Ye Bai's phone rang: "Lan Fa, what is the situation now? Can you find a suitable island?"

Ye Bai did not have that much time to search for the whereabouts of the thunder.

"Sorry, Ye Bai, the weather forecast just now indicated that there will be no thunderstorms for the next two days."

"And the nearest thunderstorm point to here is in Xishansheng; if we set off now, it will take a day and a half to reach Xishansheng."

Ye Bai shook his head: "No, by the time we get to Xishansheng, the opportunity will have passed; we must think of a better way."

"Why don't you come up to the island, Lan Fa? The thunder on the island has disappeared now. Let's discuss a countermeasure; at worst, I just won't do this experiment."

After Ye Bai hung up the phone, the surrounding vines had all been devoured by the Thunder Rabbits, which made Ye Bai feel it was truly incredible.

After his gaze fell upon the Thunder Rabbits, he suddenly discovered that the bodies of the Thunder Rabbits had grown a size larger.

What is going on?

Ye Bai's pupils changed into the shape of a hexagram once again.

He saw the words "evolving" appear above the heads of the Thunder Rabbits.

Ah, this, did they accidentally touch upon evolutionary materials?

A trace of joy appeared on Ye Bai's face.

No matter what these Thunder Rabbits evolved into, they had finally evolved.

If he could find an unusual path of evolution, it would count as an answer to Teacher Zhang Lingxue.

After all, Ye Bai's talent was very well-suited for research.

The Thunder Rabbits were eating frantically as if they had been hungry for three days and three nights, and a crazed look appeared on their faces.

Their volume was also growing larger and larger, and electric arcs were darting through their fur, making crackling sounds.

The white light of evolution emerged from the bodies of the Thunder Rabbits.

In just a moment, their bodies grew continuously.

Finally, rabbits with massive physiques appeared before Ye Bai.

Their ears were extraordinarily large and tightly curled, just like giant fists.

There were thunder-shaped stripes on their ears, and a thunder mark appeared on their golden pupils.

Truth Eye activated.

At this time, the detailed data of this Pet Beast appeared in Ye Bai's eyes.

【Evolution Route 1: None for now, wait for contact with other materials to unlock.】

It really was a case of planting a willow and having it grow into shade; the evolutionary material for the Thunder Fist Rabbit turned out to be the Thunder Fruit, which was a great comfort to Ye Bai.

"Damn it, Ye Bai, why do you have such good luck?"

Lan Fa looked at Ye Bai with jealousy.

The thunderclouds dissipated, and this still allowed Ye Bai to find a brand-new way of evolution?

"Brand-new" is not a typo; it's a meme.

All one has to do is gnaw on the vines of the Thunder Fruit.

Lan Fa felt that Ye Bai's luck was just too good.

"Enough nonsense, we need to conduct a reproducibility experiment to find out the basis for the Thunder Fist Rabbit's evolution."

Ye Bai divided the unevolved Thunder Rabbits into two groups, one for himself and one for Lan Fa.

And through small reconnaissance equipment, they specifically recorded the evolution experiment of the Thunder Rabbits.

They discovered that the Thunder Rabbits indeed evolved by relying on the vines of the Thunder Fruit.

This accidental discovery had cobbled together a brand-new evolution for the Thunder Rabbits.

Having collected the data, Ye Bai boarded the express train to the Imperial Capital.

His large Beast Card was stuffed full of evolved Thunder Fist Rabbits.

World Researcher Conference, here I come.

Upon returning to the Imperial Capital, Ye Bai immediately reported his experimental results and the details of the ambush he had encountered.

Soon, the report reached the Qilin Marshal.

He immediately summoned Ye Bai.

"Ye Bai, I have received your report. The leader of the Death God Society attacked you, and your Pet Beast killed him in return?"

The Qilin Marshal found it somewhat unbelievable.

"The leader of the Death God Society is an eighth-rank powerhouse; how was he killed by you in return, and how did you manage to do it?"

The Qilin Marshal felt quite curious.

"Because the leader of the Death God Society wanted a quick victory and was afraid I would run away, he chose the most foolish method—he initiated a Death Game."

"A Death Game?"

The Qilin Marshal's expression became much more solemn.

"Yes, a Death Game. We each chose a Pet Beast on the Wheel of Fate and then engaged in a duel."

"In the end, I won, so the God of Contracts took away his Soul, and I received a generous reward."

Ye Bai said with a hint of pride.

"If that is the case, then it makes sense; I have also participated in a Death Game."

"To ensure the fairness and impartiality of the God of Contracts, the strength of the weaker party is always suppressed."

"With the Death God dead, the Death God Society will have no eighth-rank Pet Beast Master for a short time, which gives us an opportunity to annihilate the Death God Society."

The Death God Society is supported by the Death God; since he is already dead, as for the remaining small fry, we only need to send one Pillar of the Nation to completely wipe out the Death God Society.

"Very well, I have noted this intelligence. Your next mission is to focus on protecting Academician Su Qingxian at the World-class Researcher Conference."

"She is our pillar, and we absolutely cannot allow any accidents to happen to her."

"Do you understand?"

The Qilin Marshal's expression became quite serious.

"I understand, Qilin Marshal. Leave everything to me."

"I can protect the safety of Academician Su Qingxian."

At this moment, the Qilin Marshal took out a ring with exquisite craftsmanship, shaped like a dragon.

"This is the Dragon-Suppressing Ring; it can cast Absolute Protection."

"For this trip, only you, Academician Su Qingxian, and a special forces soldier who can fly a plane will be going."

"When danger arises, you need to rush up immediately and take Academician Su Qingxian away."

"You don't need to worry about the special forces soldier; he naturally has his own ways to survive."

"Remember, you must protect Academician Su Qingxian well."

"This is the mission I am entrusting to you."

After leaving the Qi Luck Hall, Ye Bai looked at the uneven ground of the Qi Luck Hall.

No one would ever imagine that beneath this Qi Luck Hall lies a mountain giant of massive size.

As the Guard of the Yan Country, it has been sleeping in this mountain range for a very long time.

Only when the Yan Country encounters a life-or-death catastrophe will the mountain giant be awakened to participate in this earth-shattering battle.

I hope that day never comes.

Ye Bai returned to his grand-teacher's office.

At this time, his grand-teacher was wearing a pair of reading glasses, looking at experimental data.

She scanned through it quickly, reading ten lines at a glance.

After a long while, she used a pen to mark a big cross on the experimental report.

"Ye Bai, you're here?"

"These people will stop at nothing to swindle research funding, cobbling together experiments in a forced manner."

"Trying to fool me? No way."

Pet Beast experiments require high investment and yield low output; once the school starts cutting budgets, some researchers who take shortcuts will choose to forge Laboratory data.

But this is not something that works in the eyes of Su Qingxian.
