The King of Beast Trainers
Chapter 595 - 379 This Splashing Wealth and Honor..._2

Chapter 595: Chapter 379 This Splashing Wealth and Honor..._2

"The main reason is that you’re still young. I was looking at your data, you just turned 19 this year, didn’t you?"

"Yes," Lu Ran nodded.

At the same time, his heart... immediately defected after hearing it.

"If Dr. Cheng is willing to teach me, I would also like to study with Dr. Cheng!"

Clap clap clap.

Lu Ran felt like he was being slapped in the face continuously.

This Dr. Cheng, could he be the scholar studying freely advancing and regressing mechanical evolution?

Damn.

That technology sounded so tempting.

It was very similar to the man-controlled soul evolution he had envisioned!

To become an apprentice! He must become an apprentice!

As far as Lu Ran knew, the Star-Moon Federation currently didn’t have this kind of technology for mechanical armaments that freely advanced and regressed.

In other words, this was a dark technology of the Mechanical Era, not to be missed!

"Hehe, as long as you’re willing, Dr. Cheng won’t refuse," Principal Fu smiled.

After all, that Dog Beast of Lu Ran’s seemed to be from the High-Level Overlord Clan.

Otherwise, it couldn’t possibly have defeated the Mystic Mecha.

A Beast Trainer who was contracted with a High-Level Overlord Pet Beast and willing to be a research subject for himself, Dr. Cheng would be quite pleased.

Even if she was a Legendary Machinist, finding a Pet Beast from the High-Level Overlord Race to be her research subject was difficult.

In Principal Fu’s view, teaming up Lu Ran with Dr. Cheng was the most cost-effective strategy. The risks of Lu Ran’s machinery evolution for his pet beasts would be greatly reduced, preventing the fall of this talent, and beyond that, it would also provide an opportunity for Dr. Cheng to create and invent brand-new freely advancing and regressing tools.

Capital Mechanical University was about to birth two remarkable figures!

"Since you agree, then that settles it."

"However, Dr. Cheng is not in the university at the moment. I will contact her and ask her to come back as soon as possible."

"Okay," Lu Ran nodded, this overwhelming wealth...

[If Number 18 really can’t cope with the "Element Life Creation Device" and "Soul Evolution Device," she could study the "Temporary Mechanical Armament Evolution Tool" used by Mr. Husky or the King of Sudden Death, Dark Crow during this invention competition, to make do. There have already been successful cases of this, so there should be a chance, and it sounds pretty powerful. Let’s consider it a ’fallback plan.’]

Lu Ran made a decision, he couldn’t pin all his hopes on the two research results he had touted.

A moment later, Principal Fu took his leave.

Not long after the other party left, Lu Ran resumed practicing and suddenly discovered that he had successfully modified the Mechanical Space.

"It only took half a day; I really am a genius."

After confirming the modifications were complete several times, Lu Ran showed a look of joy and directly entered the Relic Space.

Or perhaps it was telepathy.

At the same time, a mentally exhausted Mechanical Angel flew out of Time Hell, holding a black sword hilt.

"Master, Master..."

Growth Level: Level 40

"You’ve risen 10 levels so quickly???" Lu Ran was shocked.

"It’s because I gained a lot of research experience from making the Starlight Sword..." Number 18 wiped off the sweat, having truly worked hard.

[Name]: Starlight Sword

[Level]: Epic

[Introduction]: The Sword of Light Devouring, which can seize the strength of the glowing stars and unleash an explosive power several times greater than the absorbed light energy. The bearer temporarily gains the Light Attribute and has top-level control of Light Elements.

"Nice sword!" Lu Ran’s eyes lit up and said, "This was made from Star Iron?"

"No, this was made by me," Number 18 corrected.

Lu Ran: "..."

"Alright, alright, impressive..." Lu Ran had not expected to be outdone by a newborn, especially considering that he himself still couldn’t use "epic-level materials" to forge "epic" weapons and equipment. But Number 18 had just done that, which was truly a case of comparison breeding envy.

"Mr. Husky will definitely be pleased. Ah well, Mr. Husky doesn’t lack a lightsaber anyway, so I’ll use this one for now." Lu Ran took the stylish Starlight Sword and immediately activated the light blade. In the next instant, a dazzling starlight blade erupted, and Lu Ran felt his strength climbing higher and higher, as if he could cut through anything with his sword!

"What a good sword, a good sword..." He repeatedly appraised, swinging it continuously and growing more delighted.

"Hehe." Seeing Lu Ran in this state, Number 18 wiped off its sweat again, thinking that even if it couldn’t figure out that "Element Life Creation Device" or a "Soul Evolution Device," it wouldn’t seem so useless anymore.

"I may not be able to create a Mechanical Light Sword with life from epic-level mechanical materials, but I can still make a plain Mechanical Light Sword. Master, there is another piece of Star Iron, shall I make another one..."

"No." Lu Ran shook his head and said, "One is enough. Next, we should focus on researching the ’Element Life Creation Device’ and ’Soul Evolution Device’."

"Ah..." Number 18 was stunned.

"But before that, my Mechanical Space has been renovated, so let’s form our contract now." Lu Ran snapped his fingers, and in the next moment, a Ring of Contract appeared above Number 18’s head.

......

Meanwhile.

Blue Star.

Manager Ying traveled day and night and finally returned to Blue Star through the Cross-border Teleportation Array. Seeing Manager Ying shuttle frequently between two worlds, even the Pine God tasked with guarding the Array was getting a bit annoyed.

Xia Country.

Instead of calling, Manager Ying personally came to Beast Training University, intending to share the good news about Shi Zhen and the Senior Chairman being chosen by a legendary lifeform in person.

"Damn." But when Manager Ying teleported to Shi Zhen’s room and saw the black-dress-clad beauty Shi Xia applying lipstick, Manager Ying gasped in surprise.

"You’re not just cross-dressing anymore, are you?"

"Damn???" Shi Zhen also gasped in surprise and said, "You freaking just barge in without knocking, what are you—"

She suddenly remembered that she couldn’t beat Manager Ying in her true form anymore.

"What do you want from me?"

She suppressed the urge to lash out.

"Also, what you see with your eyes might not be the truth." Shi Zhen put down the lipstick and said quietly, "I’m doing this to better control the Power of Curse and make it serve me. In a few days, my combat power might enter the Top Five of Xia Country."

"I know, I understand, no need to explain," Manager Ying interrupted. "I have good news, do you want to hear it?"

Shi Zhen was on alert.

"What good news?"

"Actually, Lu Ran’s blood test back then was not for the purpose of studying cultivation methods."

"Instead, Lu Ran met a Legendary Divine Beast that wanted to find a high-quality human as its envoy. It was through a blood test that it determined the chosen one."

"And the person chosen by that kind of Legendary Divine Beast... one in a hundred thousand... is you!"

"Ah??" Shi Zhen’s eyes widened, and her red lips parted slightly as she said, "You’re not, you’re not pulling my leg, are you?"

"Bullshit." Manager Ying teleported again, patting her shoulder with a cat paw, enviously saying, "I’d swear on my life, why do you think I was so excited to come tell you. Remember to send me a red envelope after you get benefits from the legend. Indeed, you’ve been noticed by a spirit, and not just any spirit, but an Affiliate of the Creation God Dragon’s Death God Dragon, the Abyss God."

"Lin Nian, Gu Qingyi, they didn’t stand a chance."

"Seize this opportunity, and becoming a Legendary Beast Trainer is not just a dream."

"In this upcoming World Battle, you might have a seat at the table, and there’s still time! When the time comes, give Star-Moon Federation a little witch surprise."

"Really, truly?"

She still couldn’t believe it.

"I’ve already taken an oath on a dog’s life."

"I, I, I... such staggering fortune... you and Lu Ran are great! There will definitely be a red envelope!" Shi Zhen blurted out excitedly, "But, am I really suitable like this? Right! The Abyss God is Legendary Level; it definitely has a way to lift this curse. I don’t want to remove the curse now because I’ve adapted to it, and it brings me a certain amount of strength. Removing it would mean a great loss of power. But if I became a Legendary Apostle, the power boost from this curse wouldn’t matter anymore... Should I, should I not? I may finally be able to return to normal."

"Stop————" Manager Ying sighed, "The Abyss God took an interest in you precisely because of your current state. You have to maintain it! And even increase your efforts, perhaps even let your Pet Beast undergo a similar curse, then adapt to it. Hate the Witch Curse, accept the Witch Curse, adapt to the Witch Curse, understand the Witch Curse, and transcend the Witch Curse!"

Shi Zhen: ?
