Chapter 473: New Evolution Routes, Battle Thunder Rabbit

After evolving, these Thunder Rabbits were much larger.

In appearance, they looked like oversized rabbits with blood-red eyes, and electric light was leaping across their sharp claws.

Their two ears were pressed tightly against their fur, and the sound of crackling electric currents emanated from them.

After the Frenzied Thunder Rabbits evolved, they each opened their blood-red eyes and charged at Ye Bai.

Bolts of electric current bombarded toward Ye Bai's direction, wanting to kill Ye Bai right there.

"Yo, yo, yo, it seems you are full of resentment. Are you trying to kill me here?"

Ye Bai said with a cold sneer.

"Dahui, give them a lesson; don't let them think that just because they've evolved, they can rise up from serfdom to become masters."

Dahui placed the Thunder God Axe in his hand directly onto the ground.

Whistling electric currents immediately fell onto the Thunder God Axe.

The Frenzied Thunder Rabbits felt as if the electric current radiating from their bodies was being drawn out by the Thunder God Axe.

They let out shrill, desperate cries.

These Frenzied Thunder Rabbits then felt their bodies being hollowed out.

They collapsed onto the ground like mud.

"Frenzied Thunder Rabbits."

"You should know your place."

The Frenzied Thunder Rabbit had already been evolved; only the final evolution form remained: the Thunder God Rabbit.

Just at this moment, Zhang Lingxue arrived at the Laboratory.

"Ye Bai, I heard you've been researching the evolution forms of the Thunder Rabbit recently. I wonder if my Thunder Rabbits can evolve into a new form."

"I've finally finished my mission recently."

Zhang Lingxue let out a complete sigh of relief.

"I heard you even got a promotion and can stand on equal footing with the Twelve Pillars of the Nation."

Ye Bai smiled: "Teacher, no matter how my position changes, you are still my teacher. My respect for you will not decrease by even half a point."

Zhang Lingxue laughed: "You glib-tongued fellow, what stage is your research on the Thunder Rabbit at now?"

"I heard you even developed a new form."

Zhang Lingxue asked curiously.

"To be precise, there are two forms."

"One is called the Thunder Fist Rabbit, evolved by eating the vines of the Thunder Fruit."

"The current one is called the Frenzied Thunder Rabbit; their eyes are all blood-red."

Ye Bai pointed at the Frenzied Thunder Rabbits sprawled on the ground and said to Zhang Lingxue.

"By the way, I suspect the Thunder Rabbit has other evolution forms."

"I don't know what form you want your two Thunder Rabbits to evolve into, Teacher."

Zhang Lingxue thought for a moment: "My research on Thunder Rabbit evolution is not as thorough as yours."

"However, I want my Thunder Rabbits to evolve into the strongest form."

"Originally, I developed the Thunder Spirit Rabbit, intending for the Thunder Rabbit to evolve into that form."

"But I discovered that the Thunder Spirit Rabbit leans more toward the support side."

"So I wanted to continue researching, but because there were too many missions assigned from above, I never found the time."

Zhang Lingxue felt it was a slight pity.

However, this regret was filled by Ye Bai.

The appearance of the Frenzied Thunder Rabbit and the Thunder Fist Rabbit gave Zhang Lingxue more ideas.

"Come out, Thunder Rabbit."

Two lively Thunder Rabbits appeared. These two Thunder Rabbits had been well-nurtured by Zhang Lingxue; their fur was sleek and shiny.

When these two rabbits saw Ye Bai, their complexions turned deathly pale.

They seemed to recall the times they were used by Ye Bai for experiments.

"Thunder Rabbits, don't be nervous."

"There are four evolution routes here."

"It all depends on your choice."

"The first is the Thunder Spirit Rabbit; their movements are quite nimble, but their current reserves are insufficient, making them the weakest of the four evolution forms."

Ye Bai released a Thunder Spirit Rabbit to serve as a reference for the Thunder Rabbits.

"The second type is the Thunder Fist Rabbit; their ears are like powerful fists, making them strength-based fighters, and they also master skills like the Baiwantun Feiti, so their combat power is quite strong."

The honest-looking Thunder Fist Rabbit was released by Ye Bai.

They were busy munching on carrots in large mouthfuls.

Looking at their majestic physiques and the muscles all over their bodies, the Thunder Rabbits seemed a bit tempted.

"The third type is the Mad Thunder Rabbit; they go crazy when they get excited."

"The moment their Lijua touch an enemy, the enemy will fall into a state of paralysis."

Ye Bai pointed at the Mad Thunder Rabbit, which was sprawled on the ground, motionless, and said with a smile.

Seeing the exhausted expression of the Mad Thunder Rabbit, the Thunder Rabbits couldn't help but shiver; they felt a sense of empathy.

"Ye Bai, stop scaring my rabbits; look at how you've frightened them."

"Is there another evolution method, the one you haven't researched yet?"

Zhang Lingxue continued to ask.

"Actually, I have some leads, but I haven't found a Thunder Rabbit capable of evolving."

"The synchronization rate of these rabbits is just too, too low."

Ye Bai shook his head.

"But if it were your teacher's two Thunder Rabbits, it might actually be possible to evolve successfully."

Zhang Lingxue laughed in exasperation: "You're setting your sights directly on my rabbits?"

"Not a chance."

"Don't be like that, Teacher, I can guarantee that your two Thunder Rabbits won't have any problems."

"And don't you want to know what the strongest form of the Thunder Rabbit looks like?"

Ye Bai said hurriedly.

"I don't, anyway, don't get any ideas about my Thunder Rabbits."

Upon hearing the words "strongest," the pair of Thunder Rabbits actually had their eyes light up.

They looked at Zhang Lingxue with a serious expression.

"Do you really want to evolve into that form?"

"It will be very hard, you know."

Zhang Lingxue asked the pair of Thunder Rabbits.

The pair of Thunder Rabbits nodded heavily.

Better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix; if they were going to do it, they wanted to become the strongest in the rabbit family.

This was the consensus of the pair of Thunder Rabbits.

"Fine, since you want to become the strongest, then I agree."

"But Ye Bai, you must promise me one thing: you cannot let my rabbits have any accidents."

"You must protect my rabbits well."

Zhang Lingxue said very seriously.

This instead left Ye Bai between laughter and tears.

"Fine, I promise."

"Does Teacher want to participate in my experiment?"

"Once the brand-new form appears, the complete evolutionary chain of the Thunder Rabbit will be finished."

"Then we can publish a paper."

"This time, the Beautiful Country suddenly pulled this stunt, and researchers from other countries have strong opinions, one after another demanding that the Beautiful Country release the researchers they captured."

"Return the research results, but I think this is all bark and no bite."

"They will still believe that the Beautiful Country's national power is strong and the research atmosphere is excellent, and that those researchers were there voluntarily."

"If we publish our research results at this time, we can give those people a hard slap in the face."

Ye Bai suggested to Zhang Lingxue.

"It doesn't matter to me, you make the call, after all, you are now the Greedy Wolf Star, an existence on par with my own master."

Zhang Lingxue said sarcastically.

"Lan Fa, help me out, convert more Tier 6 Leidian Jinghe."

"No, let's convert Tier 7 instead."

Ye Bai had a change of thought; since the Thunder God Rabbit is the king of Thunder Rabbits, and so many Thunder Rabbits previously consumed Tier 6 crystals and all evolved into Mad Thunder Rabbits.

This proves it's not a matter of the quantity of crystals, so what if the quality of the crystals is improved?

Wouldn't Tier 7 crystals be better?

"Ye Bai, if it's Tier 7 crystals, my rabbits might not be able to handle the burden."

Zhang Lingxue reminded him.

"Don't worry, Teacher, have you forgotten my attainments in pharmacology?"

"You can safely leave it to me; I will formulate a special potion to help the Thunder Rabbits digest and absorb it."

Currently, Zhang Lingxue had already cultivated the two Thunder Rabbits to the peak of Tier 6.

Therefore, Ye Bai felt that giving these two Thunder Rabbits Tier 7 crystals was not impossible.

He exchanged for more medicinal herbs and Tier 7 Leidian Jinghe from the school's Logistics Department.

With Lan Fa's help, he directly replicated the Tier 7 Leidian Jinghe.

Afterward, he crushed the crystals and mixed them into the medicinal herbs to begin formulating the potion.

Not long after, a bottle of silvery-white potion was concocted by Ye Bai.

"Come, one by one, which of you wants to evolve?"

"After all, you are important materials; if we conduct the experiment all at once and some accident happens, I won't be able to save you in time."

Zhang Lingxue glared at Ye Bai: "Accident, what kind of accident could there be? You might have an accident, but my rabbits won't have any accidents."

Forget it, Zhang Lingxue is being overprotective now.

The male Thunder Rabbit stood out resolutely.

It picked up the potion bottle and gulped it down.

As the bottle of potion went down its stomach, electric arcs suddenly emerged from its body.

The sharp-eyed Ye Bai suddenly discovered a hidden evolution route appearing.

The new evolution method was actually called Battle Thunder Rabbit.

Ah, this.

It really was completely unexpected.

Originally, Ye Bai thought that the Thunder Rabbit possessing four evolution methods was already amazing enough.

But the fact that the male Thunder Rabbit could evolve into a Battle Thunder Rabbit was also quite terrifying in the research world.

Because there were not many unstable genes within the Thunder Rabbit's body.

And for a Pet Beast to possess five evolution forms, if it passed reproducibility experiments, it would certainly cause a sensation internationally.

Ye Bai and Zhang Lingxue's reputations would be completely established, with many benefits.

Originally, everyone discussed in private that it was Zhang Lingxue who had hit the jackpot to discover the different forms of the Baibian Can.

And the Thunder Rabbit was evolved by Zhang Lingxue from a Positive Electric Rabbit and a Negative Electric Rabbit.

In other words, the entire evolution route of the Thunder Rabbit family had been figured out by Ye Bai.

"What's wrong, Ye Bai?"

Actually, Zhang Lingxue had already vaguely guessed that Ye Bai might be a dual-talent holder.

He should possess a talent similar to the Insight Eye.

Since Ye Bai didn't say, she wouldn't take the initiative to ask; this was based on the teacher's protection of Ye Bai.

If too many people knew Ye Bai's secret, Ye Bai would very likely be captured and made to specialize in Pet Beast evolution research, which was a situation Zhang Lingxue did not want to see.

However, at Ye Bai's level, to capture Ye Bai, it would at least require an order from someone at the Marshal level.

Or for the Twelve Pillars of the Nation to pass a vote unanimously.

This was an impossible thing; after all, Ye Bai had great kindness toward Chen Long and You Ji, and Xu Gou and Wei Yang had connections with Ye Bai.

Just in terms of numbers, it wouldn't reach the threshold of a unanimous vote.

"I still have some things to do, my rabbits are entrusted to you."

"Remember, remember, absolutely do not let my rabbits have an accident, otherwise I will kill you."

Zhang Lingxue gave a few 'enthusiastic' instructions.

After Zhang Lingxue left, Ye Bai re-concocted the potion for the Battle Thunder Rabbit according to its evolution conditions.

At the same time, he also had the Thunder Rabbit bathe in the Thunder Pool to increase the Thunder Rabbit's electrical capacity.

This provided help for its next step of evolving into a Battle Thunder Rabbit.

Days passed one by one, and the Thunder Rabbit's state got better day by day.

To evolve into a Battle Thunder Rabbit, one must have a strong will.

Tempering the Thunder Rabbit's willpower became Ye Bai's current goal.

Finally, after several twists and turns, a bright light of evolution flashed on the Thunder Rabbit's body.

Its forelimbs stood up, and the Lijua on its hands extended, like two sharp knives.

A trace of battle intent flashed in the Battle Thunder Rabbit's eyes, and a surge of battle intent emerged from the Battle Thunder Rabbit's body.

This was the evolution form of the Battle Thunder Rabbit.

The female Thunder Rabbit on the side saw its lover evolve into this appearance, and its eyes were glued to the Battle Thunder Rabbit.

The two rabbits started flirting right in front of Ye Bai.

"Wait a second, doing serious business is more important."

"You still have to evolve."

Ye Bai said irritably.
