Beast Taming: Becoming a Bug-type Elite Four Member Starting with Silkworm Raising

Chapter 41 Evolution PreparationsChapter 41 Evolution Preparations
Returning to the Insect Controlling House from the Union Building animal pen, Russell used the permission card given to him by Dr. Natsuki to log into the internal information website of Senluo Beast Controlling Research Institute.

After briefly looking at the information on the ”Dreamweaver’s Lair”, he turned his attention to the information area related to moth pet beasts.

Russell wasn’t too anxious about cracking the secret realm. Even if he was, he wouldn’t be in a hurry. He could just provide cooperation according to Dr. Xia Mu’s arrangement.

The most important thing now is Ayou’s evolution.

The upper limit of the known races of the UFO Hawkmoth is there. Under the influence of the ”Cocoon of Evolution” talent, Ayou will sooner or later evolve beyond the initial race. When planning the subsequent development route, you can refer to the data of some similar races. There is always no loss.

Unfortunately, the average strength of moth pet beasts is indeed worthy of the statement ”lack of breeding value”. After searching through hundreds of moth species information in Senluo City’s internal database, Russell was stunned to find no particularly suitable reference target.

The strength of most of the pet beast races is not as good as Ayou’s current level. The few pet beasts that are silver or gold level or above have mostly mediocre abilities and cannot find any highlights worth learning.

A race like Candle Shadow Moth that has lord-level pet beasts and possesses practical talents. This is the only known moth pet beast in the entire Black Dew Forest.

However, if the whole development develops in the direction of controlling shadows, then Ayou will also become a control support like Candle Shadow Moth, which is not the result Russell wants.

However, he was not discouraged.

Although the network technology of the Beast Control World is equally advanced, due to confidentiality issues, some core information will still be saved on stand-alone devices or paper files, and the information published online will definitely be incomplete.

”Forget it, let’s check it out in the institute’s internal library when we have time.”

Rubbing his eyes as he read the information, Russell planned to take care of the new breeding ground in the next few days.

In addition, he is also planning to consolidate the shadow control ability that Ayou has initially learned under the guidance of Candle Shadow Moth to ensure that it can smoothly upgrade the shadow arrow into a seam shadow arrow when it evolves.

There is no need to completely develop into a control type, but it is still good to learn a strong control skill.

Thinking of this, Russell glanced at Ayou’s message.

”UFO Hawkmoth

Growth progress: 56%

Among them, insect energy accounts for 27%, ghost energy accounts for 21%, and spiritual energy accounts for 8%.

Ability development: Shadow Sewing Arrow (current level cannot be advanced yet, shadow control proficiency is 30%)

Body Transformation: Velvet Strengthening (There is a chance of awakening during the next evolution, the current success rate is 25%)”

After this period of careful cultivation, Ayou has a good foundation. The proportion of insect energy and ghost energy is becoming increasingly balanced, and various abilities are also improving in an orderly manner.

Even if it cannot reach the gold level in its next evolution, it should still be considered outstanding among the silver level pets.

Coupled with Russell’s carefully selected skills of Butterfly Shadow, Nether Explosion and Seam Shadow Arrow, Ayou’s combat effectiveness should be able to easily surpass many gold-level pet beasts.

”Ayou’s strength is developing very steadily, and he has to find a way for Daodao Mantis...”

While he was happy about Ayou’s improvement in strength, Russell was also thinking about the development direction of Daodao Mantis.

Nowadays, the steel-type energy in Daodao Mantis’s body has reached more than 15%, and the use of alloy claws has become more and more proficient. Simply relying on eating steel-type cultivation materials to improve its physique can no longer meet its growth needs.

Taking into account the excellent combat awareness shown by Daodao Mantis in the last doubles final, Russell plans to make semi-free combat the general direction of its development, so as not to waste its combat talents.

It’s just that with just the natural fighting consciousness, you can win unexpectedly and gain the upper hand in low-level battles. However, as the level of the pet increases, more and more powerful group attacks and perception skills will become available. Jin doesn’t quite work.

If you want to fully utilize Dao Mantis’ fighting talent, in addition to keeping up with your physical strength, your fighting skills must also not fall behind.However, nature has always followed the rule that there are far fewer predators than prey. Compared with moth pets, the number of mantises is many times smaller. If the secondary attributes are also limited to steel or fighting, the range will be even narrower. .

In the information on the insect-type pets in the Black Dew Forest, there is only one mantis-type pet that has both insect and fighting types. Unfortunately, the bloodline level is just bronze, and the racial talent is to increase the jumping speed, not to enhance the attack ability.

With the ”Cocoon of Evolution” talent, a lower bloodline level is not a critical issue, but if it is not even related to abilities, it really has no reference value.

”Why don’t you find a martial arts studio?”

After pondering for a moment, Russell suddenly had an idea.

If you want to learn fighting skills, you really have to follow the pattern of pet beasts learning skills.

But now he just wants to improve Daodao Mantis’s combat awareness, as well as basic abilities such as blocking, dodging, and slashing in close combat. In fact, it doesn’t have to be practiced as a skill.

Find some pet beasts with excellent fighting ability to practice with, and you should be able to achieve a good improvement effect.

As he had no other plans today, Russell took out his mobile phone and searched for martial arts gyms near Fenglin Road.

”Huayuan Street... Bloodstone Martial Arts School, a beginner’s sparring course costs 200 credits per session. The training target is a third-level martial arts master beast master. It sounds good.”

Relying on the overdeveloped advertising industry, he did a random search and found a martial arts gym of moderate size and located on the next street.

But why does this name sound familiar...?
No matter what, since I have money now, buying this kind of basic course is just a waste of time.

…………

Ten minutes later, Russell arrived at the entrance of the Bloodstone Martial Arts Gym.

This martial arts gym consists of a three-story main building and a training ground. Near noon, many martial arts apprentices are training basic physical skills with their pet beasts in the training ground.

Yes, beast masters themselves also need to improve their physical fitness and master some basic self-defense skills.

The real world of beast control is not a turn-based game where you and I move one at a time, and the situations where beast control masters fight are far more than regular arenas where attacking the beast master himself is strictly prohibited.

Whether it’s a wild adventure or a fierce battle between different forces, ferocious enemies often make beastmasters, who are far more fragile than pet beasts, their primary target.

Although humans can never surpass pet beasts in physical fitness no matter how hard they train, critical dodging can prevent them from being killed in one blow and give pet beasts a chance to rescue.

Therefore, basic physical skills are one of the required courses for professional beast masters.

It’s just that Russell always stayed in the city. The only time he went to the wild was to the highly safe Black Dew Forest Training Ground. In addition, he was really too lazy to do it, so he relaxed his physical training.

For lazy people like Russell, there is another way to solve their own safety problems:
That is to contract a beast master who is good at protection. As long as you are in an unsafe environment, you can let it guard you with high intensity 24 hours a day. This can also effectively prevent attacks, and it is better than relying solely on the physical skills of the beast master. Be more reliable.

This is indeed what Russell planned...

Anyway, with the ”Cocoon of Evolution” talent, the ability to protect pet beasts can also be customized. He has been an academic game geek for more than years, so he doesn’t want to exercise exhaustingly every day in order to improve his dodge ability.

Living in a world with pet beasts as its core, it would be meaningless to join in the fun if I can’t touch it yet...

“Let’s take a trial class first to get a feel for it~”

After withdrawing his thoughts and looking at the advertisement ”Welcome new customers to try free trial lessons” posted at the entrance of the Bloodstone Martial Arts Gym to attract business, Russell stepped into the building filled with the sounds of fighting and collisions.
