Chapter 61: Unexpected Situation, Blood Parasite Butterfly?

Inside Principal Zhang's blood, there were actually white, chubby little bugs.

These bugs were very, very small, even smaller than normal cells.

When viewed under the high-magnification lens of the instrument, these bugs were covered in sharp teeth, and some of them even had their mouths latched onto the cell walls.

It was just that these bugs were currently sleeping motionless.

Zhang Lingxue was extremely shocked.

No wonder Grandfather described the pain of Wangu Shigutong as if his entire body had been burned by raging fire.

She finally understood why, no matter how many famous doctors and experts there were, they could not cure the stubborn illness in Grandfather's body.

His body was filled with dense clusters of these tiny bugs; this was the true reason his health was deteriorating day by day.

No wonder that even after expelling wave after wave of toxins, and even changing his blood, it had no effect—it turned out these little bugs were the ones causing trouble.

If one could see countless little bugs in just this single drop of blood, wouldn't there be even more inside Grandfather's body? He had become a nest for these little bugs to breed in.

It was no wonder that even though Grandfather was a high-level Pet Beast Master, he had aged so rapidly; his body had become a breeding ground for bugs, riddled with holes. Eating any amount of miraculous medicine would only make the bugs breed even faster.

Moreover, these little bugs were extremely alert; the hospital possessed more precise instruments, yet nothing was discovered during the blood tests.

What did this mean?

Either there was a mole in the hospital who didn't want Grandfather to recover and provided a fake test report.

Or the instruments simply couldn't detect them at all.

If it were the former, that would be fine, but if it were the latter, it would mean these bugs possessed intelligence, which was hair-raising.

Whether this was a natural disaster or man-made, Zhang Lingxue was not yet certain.

Shocked, Zhang Lingxue hurriedly took the test report and the test samples and walked out; she needed to find her teacher to see what on earth these things were.

"Guangming Nüshen Die, use Purification!"

Before leaving, Zhang Lingxue specifically had the Guangming Nüshen Die use Purification to sterilize and disinfect the entire Laboratory.

She was afraid that these terrifying little bugs might already be in the Laboratory.

Fortunately, fortunately, she had taken thorough protective measures before testing.

The Guangming Nüshen Die emitted a brilliant white light that illuminated the entire Laboratory, but it startled one of the sleeping Baibian Can awake.

The newly awakened Baibian Can raised its head and saw a tube of blood sample that Zhang Lingxue had placed on the table.

The Baibian Can's eyes lit up; it happened to be a bit hungry.

Baibian Can were originally omnivorous Pet Beasts; they could eat anything.

After being raised by Ye Bai using Blood Core and high-tier Exotic Beast meat, it had fallen in love with the incomparably sweet taste of fresh blood.

A specialized Pet Beast evolution area had been set up in the Laboratory, with five corners enclosed by fully transparent glass windows and the floor covered with a thick layer of grass.

There was a specific glass window here, about the size of a basketball, used to make it convenient for Ye Bai to toss in evolution materials.

In the event of a Pet Beast going berserk, the glass window could be closed directly.

These glass panes were bulletproof glass capable of resisting attacks from a Fifth-tier Exotic Beast, and they were very expensive.

Just now, because Ye Bai had left in a hurry, he forgot to close the glass window, and this Baibian Can pushed the glass window open with its tongue.

It rubbed its rumbling stomach with its crimson tongue.

Subsequently, this Baibian Can suddenly spat out a strand of blood-red silk from its mouth, aiming directly at that tube of blood sample.

The Baibian Can pulled the blood sample to its side, opened its sharp mouth, and swallowed the blood sample with a *crunch, crunch*.

Afterward, the Baibian Can even let out a satisfied burp; it suddenly felt a wave of intense sleepiness wash over it, and the Baibian Can collapsed to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.

While sleeping, its body radiated a blood-red light, just like a fine pigeon-blood ruby; the Baibian Can's outer skin seemed to have many things invisible to the naked eye, as if something wanted to crawl out from inside the Baibian Can's body.

However, because this Baibian Can had been tempered to be incomparably tough by Ye Bai using evolution materials, those things did not succeed.

Soon, the blood-red light faded, and the outer skin returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

This Baibian Can rolled over, smacked its lips a few times, and fell into a deep sleep again.

When Ye Bai woke up the next day, he looked over the records of yesterday's failed experiments again and again, wanting to find the most suitable evolution ratio from them.

"Yesterday's Baibian Can already consumed many Blood Cores; their foundations have been laid very firmly."

"In the later stages, the phenomenon of Self-Destruct is no longer very obvious; if I persist and find the right evolution ratio, the Baibian Can will eventually evolve into a Blood Poison Moth."

Ye Bai muttered to himself.

Although most of the energy was absorbed by the Sun Flower King, a small portion still remained, which was constantly stimulating the genes of the Blood Poison Moth.

Moreover, the Mental Power Crystal Core was also broadening the Baibian Can's mental power; these three Baibian Can seemed to have awakened their intelligence, with a glimmer of light appearing in their eyes from time to time.

After arriving at the Laboratory, Ye Bai followed yesterday's steps and fed them the new ratio.

The first few steps went fine, but when it came to feeding the Fourth-tier Exotic Beast meat, an abnormality occurred.

After finishing the Fourth-tier Exotic Beast meat, two of the Baibian Can spat out blood-red silk from their mouths; they began to spin cocoons.

This indicated that this material ratio was correct.

Ye Bai's heart was filled with joy.

However, the last Baibian Can appeared very restless; it was drooling and licking up the meat scraps left on the ground.

At this moment, its stomach was rumbling like a drum, and even Ye Bai could hear it clearly from a distance.

This Baibian Can grew hungrier the more it ate, with sour water churning in its stomach; it felt hungrier and hungrier, wishing it could gnaw the turf on the ground clean.

Its gaze now fell upon its brothers; in its eyes, the Baibian Can that were spinning cocoons looked just like two pieces of prime, fatty meat.

With a *slurp*, drool leaked from the corner of its mouth, and the Baibian Can moved closer to its companions step by step.

Brother, you smell so good, let me take a bite, just one bite!!!

Even Ye Bai could sense that something was wrong with this Baibian Can; its eyes were glowing green with hunger.

"Strange, how could this Baibian Can show such an abnormality?"

Ye Bai raised his eyebrows, and he continued to toss out Fourth-tier Exotic Beast meat.

I saw this Baibian Can leap into the air and catch the Exotic Beast meat.

The Baibian Can smacked its lips, and its sharp teeth quickly swallowed the Tier 4 Exotic Beast meat.

Yet, after eating the food, this Baibian Can felt that not only was the hunger in its stomach not relieved, but there was a burning sensation in its gut that began to spread throughout its entire body.

Every cell in its body seemed to be clamoring with hunger, and its body felt as if it had been scorched by a fierce fire, emitting a searing pain.

The Baibian Can discovered that only by eating could it alleviate this pain of being burned by a raging fire.

"Strange, what on earth happened? How did this Baibian Can change so much in just one night?"

"Usually, if they eat even a little bit of Tier 4 Exotic Beast meat, they almost explode and die."

"And yet now, it actually wants to keep eating."

Ye Bai believed that this Baibian Can might be undergoing an evolution beyond its rank, which was why it needed to replenish a large amount of energy; this was a good sign.

If he could breed a Tier 4 Blood Poison Moth, he could write a brilliant chapter in his resume, which would also be an important bonus for applying to become a Researcher and Breeder.

Since the other two Baibian Can were still spinning silk to form cocoons, in order not to let this Baibian Can disturb the evolution of the other two.

Ye Bai could only continue to provide Tier 4 Exotic Beast meat, with the Sunflower King ready to rescue this Baibian Can at any time to prevent it from exploding and dying.

But this Baibian Can was like a bottomless pit; before he knew it, a small portion of the Blood-Violent Rat Emperor's torso had been completely devoured by this Baibian Can.

Even if it was just a small portion, it amounted to several hundred kilograms.

But this Baibian Can still remained persistent, wanting to continue devouring Tier 4 flesh and blood, and Ye Bai felt that the Baibian Can before him had a problem.

His dark pupils with patterns opened, and he used the Insight Eye.

To Ye Bai's surprise, there was actually a thin layer of mist on this Baibian Can.

"Strange, this situation didn't exist yesterday. What exactly happened to this Baibian Can?"

Ye Bai felt that it was impossible for a Baibian Can to undergo such a huge change in just one night.

Could it be that a quantitative change led to a qualitative change?

Did it eat too many Blood Cores?

Did it eat too many Mental Power Crystal Cores?

Or did it undergo a mutation after eating the Tier 4 Exotic Beast meat?

This would have to wait for the feedback from the Insight Eye.

Under the observation of the Insight Eye, the mist dissipated, and the data of the Baibian Can appeared in Ye Bai's eyes.

【Name: Baibian Can】

【Gender: Female】

【Personality: Paranoid】

【Skills: Impact, Silk Spinning】

【Evolution Route 1: Huidu E: It will naturally evolve into a Huidu E when the time comes.】

【Evolution Route 2: Blood Poison Moth: 100g of Tier 3 Mental Power Crystal Core, 10 Tier 2 Blood Cores, Tier 2 Exotic Beast flesh and blood (the higher the grade of the flesh and blood, the higher the success rate of evolving into a Blood Poison Moth), evolution success rate 78%.】

【Evolution Route 3: Blood Gu Butterfly: Tier 3 Mental Power Crystal Core, 10 Tier 2 Blood Cores, mysterious Gu poison (already satisfied), Tier 4 Exotic Beast meat, the more Exotic Beast meat the better, evolution success rate 98%.】

!!!!

Blood Gu Butterfly, oh my god, how did an extra evolution route appear in just one night?

What on earth is that mysterious Gu poison, and where did it come from?

Could it be that someone poisoned it in the Laboratory?

No way, could someone really sneak into the heavily guarded Laboratory without a sound?

Ye Bai was truly quite curious; he really wanted to check yesterday's surveillance to see what exactly happened in the Laboratory last night.

At this moment, his thoughts were in a chaotic mess, feeling like they were impossible to untangle.

Since the evolution success rate could reach 98% and all other evolution conditions had been met, he only needed to provide high-tier Exotic Beast meat.
