Chapter 52: The Culprit is the Thousand-Change Silkworm

Ye Bai's suspicious gaze landed on Dahui.

Just a moment ago, only Dahui was standing next to the crystal core; could it be that Dahui was greedy and ate it?

After all, it was a Tier 4 crystal core; only Dahui could handle it.

Dahui waved its hands frantically, shaking its head like a rattle-drum, and it put on a pitiful, aggrieved expression.

It opened its mouth wide, revealing sharp teeth, almost as if it wanted to stuff Ye Bai's head into its mouth to see if it had really stolen and eaten the crystal core.

Ye Bai gave a sheepish smile; how could he wrong Dahui? It had followed him for so long; it was not that kind of Pet Beast.

"Alright, alright, don't be aggrieved, I didn't mean anything else by it."

Ye Bai said, caught between laughter and tears.

Now there were only Dahui and the Thousand-Change Silkworm in the Breeding House; since Dahui didn't eat it, there was only one truth.

The culprit was the Thousand-Change Silkworm.

You scoundrel, you thousand-slaying Thousand-Change Silkworm, how are you so fast? I wasn't paying attention for one second, and you swallowed a Tier 4 crystal core.

You, a mere Tier 1 Pet Beast, dare to swallow a Tier 4 crystal core; you really have some nerve.

Spit it out for me, spit it out! That is a Tier 4 crystal core!

It could buy so many, many good things!

Ye Bai looked indignantly at the blood-red cocoon; when you break out of the cocoon, I'll let Dahui give you a good slap to let Dahui vent its anger.

Look at how aggrieved this child Dahui is!

However, Ye Bai now thought of another problem, which was how he would contract Dahui.

Dahui was able to kill a Tier 4 Blood-Violent Rat Emperor with its own hands, which proved that Dahui possessed Tier 4 or higher strength.

Ye Bai was currently just a Tier 1 small fry; he couldn't contract Dahui at all and could only use a portable Beast Card to keep Dahui by his side.

Actually, based on Dahui's level of loyalty, whether he contracted Dahui or not didn't make much of a difference.

After contracting a Pet Beast, the Pet Beast enters the Pet Beast Space, where it can slowly heal its own injuries.

As the Pet Beast Master's strength grows, the Pet Beast Space will grow larger and larger; if one can obtain heaven-sent treasures that expand space, it can even evolve into a small Secret Realm.

The school's Secret Realm was formed by a Pet Beast Master who was about to die and voluntarily stripped away their Pet Beast Space.

If Ye Bai wants to break through his own bottleneck, he must either find heaven-sent treasures to enhance his mental power or use his life-bound Pet Beast to make a breakthrough.

A Pet Beast Master's strength is closely related to the first Pet Beast they contract; the first Pet Beast is also called the life-bound pet.

Of course, if one is dissatisfied with their life-bound pet, they can use Styx Water to replace it, swapping in a Pet Beast with higher aptitude as their life-bound pet.

After using the life-bound pet to break through a realm, for example, breaking through to Tier 2, the Tier 2 strength will be stabilized and will not have to be started over just because the life-bound pet is changed.

By the time the sun was high in the sky, the Jiaying City Pet Beast Association finally announced the lifting of the Level 1 red alert.

The school also issued a notice to resume classes; only the Sunflowers were still working diligently, intensifying the reproduction of their own population.

The Sunflower King had also become the leader of this group of Sunflowers, and its overall appearance had changed.

Originally, the Sunflower King was a sunflower the size of a millstone, with two big eyes.

But now, the Sunflower King had shrunk a lot, and there were two light spirits floating above its flower disk, scattering the radiance of the sun.

Its leaves and flower stalks were like fine jade, and its roots, while appearing very slender, were actually as hard as iron.

Thousands of Sunflowers gathered together, emitting a scorching light, and they simultaneously released a floral fragrance that was intoxicating.

Under the command of the Sunflower King, these Sunflowers marched majestically toward the distance.

Any Blood-Violent Rats that were not dead would be finished off by them, and their flesh and blood became their supplements.

After President Wang and the other high-level officials of the Pet Beast Association returned to the Jiaying City Pet Beast Association, they found Principal Zhang sitting in the conference room with a serious expression.

They immediately stood in awe, shrinking their heads like children who had made a mistake; this was the natural suppression of a teacher over students.

"Wang Jinyin, after you left, I encountered a Pet Beast Master from the Gospel Society sneaking into the Pet Beast Association's secret vault, seemingly wanting to steal something; I burned him directly into ashes with my Titan Hellfire."

"He said in public that this Beast Tide was deliberately caused by him, and even the special virus on the Blood-Violent Rats was deliberately spread by him."

Principal Zhang told Wang Jinyin the information he had investigated, and he coughed a few times, his expression full of exhaustion.

After hearing this, President Wang was instantly furious: "What on earth do those turtle grandsons want to do?"

"These rats hiding in the gutters always think about destroying the world first, then creating it?"

President Wang was so angry his lungs were about to explode; the thing he had been worried about for several days was actually caused by the Gospel Society, which made him feel incomparably angry.

This is playing with human lives!

*Cough, cough*, the old principal coughed a few more times, his brows filled with an inescapable exhaustion.

Zhang Lingxue walked quickly behind Principal Zhang, and the Guangming Nüshen Die immediately appeared in mid-air, with strands of soft, holy light falling from its butterfly wings, enveloping Principal Zhang entirely.

After a while, Principal Zhang felt a bit more spirited.

She frowned and said softly: "Your situation is very dangerous now; you should hurry and rest at the Liaoyangyuan."

"You haven't closed your eyes for days again, have you?"

"I already said, leave the Beast Tide to us, don't worry."

"If the situation in your body continues to deteriorate, it will be beyond medical help."

The old principal stood up unsteadily and said stubbornly: "I know my own body."

"With a Beast Tide erupting, how could I sleep?"

"Every time I open or close my eyes, I see the companions who died in the Beast Tide."

"Even the spirits of my old comrades in heaven are telling me to keep going."

"Don't worry, my life is very tough; I won't die for a while yet. Even if the King of Hell wants to take me, he has to step over my dead comrades and Pet Beasts before he can see me."

At this moment, the old principal couldn't listen to a word; he knew very well that his body had reached the stage of being completely exhausted.

So he had no time left.

He must take advantage of this time to find the Gospel Society's lair, summon an ultra-large Titan Hellfire, and perish together with them.

Otherwise, if the Gospel Society continues to commit atrocities and artificially create Beast Tides, it will be extremely detrimental to the stability of the Yan Kingdom Alliance.

Zhang Lingxue was also anxious about Principal Zhang's health, but the healing of the Guangming Nüshen Die was simply a drop in the bucket for Principal Zhang's injuries.

Principal Zhang was struck by a special type of toxin; his cellular activity has decreased, his body's self-healing ability has become extremely poor, and his blood is Highly Toxic.

He is currently relying on his own vast mental power to sustain himself, but his mental power has now also been tainted.

Unless one can find a Secret Treasure capable of enhancing cellular activity, as well as a Mental Power Crystal Core capable of clearing away the tainted mental power.

Begging for votes.
