Chapter 49: Inviting you to join the Y Bureau [Activity Bonus Update]
Xiao Tao couldn't understand the atmosphere that had just instantly frozen, nor did she quite understand the meaning behind Professor Luo Wan's words.
She only vaguely knew that they were praising her fruit.
Having received praise, Xiao Tao, who was already in a good mood, was happily playing with Da Liu, and upon hearing Ge Bai say she wanted to taste her fruit, she felt even more satisfied.
"Okay!"
The proud Xiao Tao readily agreed, having long forgotten who it was that had been so adamant about not wanting to bear fruit at the beginning.
Perhaps Xiao Tao's fruit was only willing to be given to her own people.
This didn't matter; Ge Bai hadn't intended to sell Xiao Tao's fruit anyway.
This time, the Spirit-Restoring Peach condensed more slowly than before. Ge Bai observed carefully; currently, the consumption for Xiao Tao to condense one Spirit-Restoring Peach was not small.
It was estimated that it would be better after Xiao Tao's Spirit Power level increased; right now, she was still a truly young little peach sapling.
【Skill: Spirit-Restoring Peach - Entry (10/100)】
It was indeed five points per fruit.
Ge Bai was just about to hand this Spirit-Restoring Peach to the beautiful researcher again when Professor Luo Wan stepped forward, reached out to take it, examined it carefully, and called the researchers over to add several measurement items specifically for this Spirit-Restoring Peach.
"Um, Xiao Tao told me that I can eat this Spirit-Restoring Peach too."
Ge Bai weighed her words and shared this information.
Professor Luo Wan was surprised and nodded slightly with a smile.
This time, the measurement took much longer than before. Fearing Xiao Tao would be bored, Ge Bai specifically asked for a bottle of young plant nutrient solution for Xiao Tao to drink for fun.
Xiao Tao naturally didn't refuse, sitting in Ge Bai's arms, holding the nutrient solution and playing happily with Da Liu.
"We found the gene endpoint within the fruit; it indeed has a rapid recovery effect."
"The skill level has steadily reached the intermediate level. For an ordinary Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree, the Spirit-Restoring Peach skill can only be classified as primary."
Today, Ge Bai and her Spirit Plants had given everyone too many surprises.
Professor Luo Wan handed the measurement results and the fruit back to Ge Bai.
Ge Bai didn't have much interest in the measurement results, but she steadily took the fruit and smiled at Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao tilted her head to watch Ge Bai bring her fruit back, and she was also very happy.
"Taoyao!"
Although she was truly a little fruit tree that didn't want to bear fruit—as for why she didn't want to, she couldn't say, it was just a thought that subconsciously emerged from the bottom of her heart.
However, she was also truly very willing for Ge Bai to taste her fruit.
Just like when Da Liu absorbed the Spirit-Restoring Peach, Xiao Tao only felt satisfied happiness in her heart.
Was it contradictory? It couldn't really be counted as such.
Oh my, she was just a young little peach sapling; why did she have to think about such complicated things? Just follow her heart and be happy.
Ge Bai carefully picked up the fruit and put it into her mouth. The fruit melted upon contact, and the rich peach fragrance exploded in her mouth; the taste was truly good.
Immediately, a refreshing Spirit Power surged from the depths of her Spirit Awareness and quickly flowed through her meridians to her whole body.
This Spirit-Restoring Peach effect was truly good. Ge Bai was still savoring it when she heard Professor Luo Wan's voice.
"Judging from Xiao Tao's Spirit-Restoring Peach skill, her bloodline level should also exceed that of an ordinary Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree."
Professor Luo Wan was preparing to take them to the monitoring point for measuring Spirit Plant bloodline levels.
Ge Bai hurriedly spoke up.
"Professor Luo, wait a moment. Xiao Tao, she has another skill."
Professor Luo Wan, who had been impatient to see the results of Xiao Tao's bloodline level and was walking hurriedly toward that side, paused his footsteps and cursed himself for being unable to hold his composure.
But on the surface, he still looked kind and amiable, "Student Ge Bai, what else is special about your Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree? Why don't you say it all at once so we can prepare in advance?"
Professor Luo Wan didn't even ask what the skill was, first administering a preventative measure.
Ge Bai thought about it and didn't plan to let Xiao Tao condense Golden Powder Peaches here today. Not to mention the consumption and skill mastery issues, just looking at the system's description of Golden Powder Peaches was already too scary; she planned to wait a while before talking about it.
Thinking of this, Ge Bai shook her head slowly.
"There's just one more skill, Phantom Peach Fragrance, which I discovered recently during Pet Beast sparring."
She wasn't lying; she just chose to tell a part of the facts.
And as for the Phantom Peach Fragrance skill, from Jinrui to the Yunhe Martial Arts Hall, many people knew about it, so there was no need to hide it.
These days, Xiao Tao had used the Phantom Peach Fragrance skill many times, and it wouldn't be difficult for Ge Bai to coax her into using it a few more times on the testing platform.
In order to test this skill, the Spirit Plant Research Institute specifically transferred over a few Spirit Beasts and a few Spirit Plants.
In the end, both Xiao Tao's Spirit-Restoring Peach and Phantom Peach Fragrance were rated as intermediate skills.
And when measuring the bloodline level, Xiao Tao's testing time far exceeded Da Liu's, and no one could explain why.
Ge Bai vaguely guessed that it might be because they had hidden a skill, but she wasn't particularly certain.
After the measurement results came out, they were indeed somewhat different from what the system showed.
【Species: Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree (Overlord Bloodline+)】
【Spirit Power Value: Zero Order (Mortal Spirit Realm) Level One (83.21/100)】
【Primary Attribute: Life-Type】
【Skill: Spirit-Restoring Peach - Entry; Skill Level: Intermediate, Skill Description:...】
【Skill: Phantom Peach Fragrance - Entry; Skill Level: Intermediate, Skill Description:...】
The skill descriptions for the two skills Xiao Tao displayed were about the same as Ge Bai's Shennong 2.7 System; the main difference was in the bloodline determination.
It seemed that the skills mastered by a Spirit Plant greatly influenced the Spirit Plant Research Institute's assessment of the Spirit Plant's bloodline potential.
Tsk, she felt her own Shennong 2.7 System was smarter, but Ge Bai just thought about it and didn't plan to praise the system.
Just kidding, she wished she could rub the system against the floor every day.
Seeing that Xiao Tao's measurement was about done, Ge Bai estimated that the Spirit Plant Research Institute's process for today was about to end, so she stretched comfortably.
A full harvest, very happy! Seeing Ge Bai's satisfied and relaxed appearance, Professor Luo Wan also smiled gently.
But it probably couldn't go as Ge Bai wished; he still had a very important matter to discuss, a matter he had been pondering repeatedly for a long time.
It wasn't until he saw Da Liu's test results today that he made up his mind, and coupled with Xiao Tao's performance, he was even more convinced that his decision was not wrong.
"Ge Bai, there is one more thing. In my capacity as a senior consultant for the Interstellar Alliance Spirit Plant Strategic Research and Deep Dimension Breakthrough Risk Control Research Bureau, I invite you to join my bureau."
Professor Luo Wan put away his smile and said to Ge Bai with a straight face.
"Wh, what bureau?"
Ge Bai heard every word Professor Luo Wan said clearly, but when put together, she didn't understand any of it.
What was that?
"Oh, it's just the Y Bureau."
Lu Nan leaned against the wall to the side and said lazily.
Professor Luo Wan turned around and glared at him, and he immediately became much more obedient.
Y Bureau? Ge Bai still hadn't heard of it.
Professor Luo Wan signaled for Ge Bai to leave the testing area and return to his office with him, and Lu Nan also followed along, swaying.
After the few of them sat down in the office's sofa area, Professor Luo Wan finally told the story of this Y Bureau.
Dear ones, you are truly amazing; in less than a day, you gave me the monthly ticket volume of the first half of the month.
