No one dared to say that they knew better than him what that thing was.

Basically, once you absorb too much, it will be irreversible.

But this thing did it.

Mental protection?

You also gave Huahua such a buff, right?

Qiao Bai was thinking about all sorts of things in his mind, but he didn't stop what he was doing at all.

With the help and cooperation of Xiao Wu.

In addition, the mythical energy in Huahua's body tended to a more stable state, so it was successfully removed.

The pollution debuff on Huahua finally disappeared completely.

Qiao Bai reached out and touched Huahua's large flower bud.

"It's all right."

"Be a good boy when you get back, okay?"

After all, it was his pet that Qiao Bai had witnessed evolve with his own eyes, so he still had some sympathy for Hua Hua, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of helping Hua Hua remove the pollution from her body.

This was not an easy thing for him.

Huahua took the initiative to rub against Qiao Bai.

He rubbed Qiao Bai again.

He didn't notice at all that he was not a small one.

He almost knocked Qiao Bai over.

Qiao Bai: “…”

Qiao Bai struggled to use his palm to hold down Huahua's big flower bud, so that he was not rubbed to the ground by Huahua.

"Alright, alright." Qiao Bai's face was full of helplessness, and his voice was also somewhat helpless.

"You've been away for more than a year, how come you're still so good at acting like a spoiled brat?"

"Are all those extraordinary creatures in the forbidden land soft persimmons?"

Qiao Bai asked subconsciously.

Cough cough.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to see Huahua do well.

But how does the saying go?

Accept the beating of reality.

Accept the beating from society.

This is an inescapable part of life.

"Ah!"

Flowers and stickers.

It! Flowey!

Super awesome! One can beat two!

Qiao Bai hasn't said anything yet.

Xiao Wu, who was standing nearby, came over silently, puffed out his chest, and tried hard to push Hua Hua aside without leaving any trace.

Huahua: ╭(╯^╰)╮

Xiaowu: ╭(╯^╰)╮

The flower and the bird are almost facing each other directly.

"Stop, stop, stop." Seeing this, Qiao Bai quickly stretched out his hand and called for a stop: "There is no deep hatred between you two, that's enough."

As he said that, Qiao Bai quickly called in Ge Zongyan who was waiting outside.

no way.

If he didn't come in, he would not be able to control the development of the situation! Ge Zongyan was waiting outside anxiously.

When he heard Qiao Bai calling him, he rushed in immediately.

Then……

Then Qiao Bai was seen standing between Xiao Wu and Nightmare Flower like a peacemaker.

The two pets that have evolved into big guys look eager to fight, as if they can start a fight at any time.

“Puff.”

Not only did Ge Zongyan not step forward to stop it immediately.

I couldn't help but sneer subconsciously.

Qiao Bai suddenly opened his eyes wide, turned his head and looked at Professor Ge with disbelief.

no?

Are you such a Professor Ge?

Just forget about it if you don't come up to help.

Are you still watching the fun from the side?

"Cough cough." Professor Ge clenched his fist to his lips and coughed lightly twice to hide his embarrassment.

This is the explanation that seems to be trying to cover up the truth.

"I just suddenly remembered... your pet was like this when it met Huahua more than a year ago."

They were almost fighting.

Looks very energetic.

There was a smile in Ge Zongyan's eyes.

After Qiao Baibei was reminded of this, he also remembered.

"But come to think of it, Huahua and Xiaowu have both changed a lot in the past year or so."

Professor Ge gestured with his hands as he spoke.

Thinking back to the days of Huahua.

Not to mention the small one.

But it is definitely not what it looks like now.

The changes that took place in Qiao Bai's pet, Xiaowu, were even greater.

From a tiny ball of bird, it transformed into a huge, mighty eagle in front of us.

As he spoke, Ge Zongyan subconsciously recalled a thought he had had before.

Find a new beastmaster for Huahua.

At that time, he also had a crush on Qiao Bai.

But this time, I looked at...

Ge Zongyan's gaze swept across the pets in the room one by one.

I didn't care about it before.

Now count carefully...does this number seem a little off?

Ge Zongyan walked to Huahua's side and easily separated himself from Qiao Bai in a few moves. From time to time, he wanted to tease Xiao Wu's flowers.

"Professor Qiao Bai."

After thinking for a while, Ge Zongyan said: "Have you...already contracted six pets?"

Ge Zongyan himself didn't quite believe what he said.

But the facts before him made it impossible for him not to believe it.

Count them.

It seems that there really are six of them.

Qiao Bai didn't think it was a big deal and nodded easily: "Yes, I'm preparing to participate in the National Beast Tamer Competition next year."

"Contracting six pets is just the most basic requirement for participating in the competition."

Ge Zongyan opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time.

Wang Ming and Li Gan, who happened to walk in from behind, had varying degrees of shock and disbelief on their faces.

"Oh my god!" Li Gan seemed to come back to his senses and counted Qiao Bai's pets one by one.

“There really are six of them!”

“I don’t think I noticed it before!”

At first glance, it seems like a lot.

I felt that there were about four or five, so I didn't count them in detail.

Who would have thought.

Six!

That's six in total!

However, no matter how shocked Li Gan was, he was still mentally prepared to some extent.

After all, he had a rough idea of ​​Qiao Bai's next plan.

Wang Ming is different.

He really wasn't mentally prepared at all and had no idea what was going on.

Six?

Professor Qiao Bai has contracted six pets? No? Is this true?

How old is Professor Qiao Bai? How come he has already contracted six pets?

Let’s not talk about the strength of these six pets.

Even if on average each pet beast is only about level three in strength... well, that doesn't seem likely when you think about it.

But even if that's true, it's still pretty amazing!

What's more, the overall strength of Qiao Bai's pet will definitely be stronger.

This is not Wang Ming's supervisory consciousness.

But... Wang Ming had paid some attention to Qiao Bai, and knew that Qiao Bai had won the championship in some small beast tamer competitions.

Even if the value of a competition is low, it is still a formal competition.

Take a deep breath.

As a beastmaster.

Wang Ming might not be able to fully understand Qiao Bai's achievements in pet evolution research.

But as a beastmaster, Wang Ming could understand very well how Qiao Bai felt after learning from his own mouth that he had already contracted six pet beasts.

If I must say it... Genius! This damn genius! Wang Ming was almost in tears.

envious.

I am really envious.

Fortunately, Wang Ming is not a person who likes to dwell on trivial matters or be jealous of others.

Envy is inevitable.

But it is still within controllable range.

"Then the problem of the nightmare flower has been solved?" Wang Ming stepped forward and took the initiative to bring the topic back to the main topic.

Qiao Bai turned and nodded towards Wang Ming.

"Okay."

"For the rest, just follow the normal process."

Nightmare Flower's bad temper has been suppressed.

The potential small problem of Nightmare Flower was solved by Qiao Bai.

The goal that Professor Ge had in inviting him here was successfully or even exceeded.

Professor Ge held Qiao Bai's hand and couldn't stop thanking him: "Thank you, thank you! Thank you so much, Professor Qiao Bai!"

"If you weren't here, I wouldn't even dare to imagine..."

What will happen to Huahua?

Huahua, who finally came back, might also...

Seeing that Ge Zongyan was about to cry, Qiao Bai quickly waved his hands.

No no no.

He really couldn't stand this kind of situation at all.

That's almost it! "I have something else to do!" Qiao Bai interrupted what Professor Ge was about to say and said quickly.

"If you are okay, Professor Ge, please take Huahua back first."

"I also need to go to the forbidden area of ​​Wanyuan City."

As expected.

Professor Ge was instantly attracted by Qiao Bai's words.

Professor Ge looked confused: "Professor Qiao Bai, do you want more...?"

"Professor Qiao Bai, do you really want to go in? At this season... I suggest you wait a while." Wang Ming also echoed.

Qiao Bai answered Professor Ge’s question first.

"I told you when I came here before that I would go in with a friend."

"We're just one step away from success. We can't just stop here, right?"

Immediately following.

Qiao Bai turned his gaze to Wang Ming.

"I know that the colder the weather, the more dangerous the forbidden land becomes."

Wang Ming nodded repeatedly.

That's what I mean.

Although extraordinary creatures possess unique extraordinary powers, they seem to be two completely different species from ordinary creatures.

However, at certain times and in certain aspects, there are still certain commonalities between them.

Just like wintering.

Winter is approaching, but in this season before the real winter comes, the extraordinary creatures in the forbidden land are particularly ferocious.

To prepare for the coming winter.

So Qiao Bai said to go in at this time...

"Although there haven't been any major problems in Wanyuan City for several years, there are still one or two beastmasters who get killed at this time every year."

Wang Ming spoke to Qiao Bai earnestly, trying to persuade Qiao Bai to calm down.

real.

If Qiao Bai wasn't a genius professor of pet evolution research, Wang Ming wouldn't have said so much.

A beast tamer.

It is necessary to experience more setbacks in order to grow better.

But Qiao Bai... Qiao Bai...

"Trust me." Qiao Bai laughed.

"Compared to you, I care more about my life." Qiao Bai said seriously, and his words made Wang Ming unable to compare them at all.

Isn't that right! If you don't care about your own life, who else can care more?

...Wang Ming couldn't help but think that he still felt that he cared more than Qiao Bai.

Qiao Bai's expression really looks too casual.

Qiao Bai's expression looked somewhat helpless.

kindness……

Now it has become difficult to make others believe him.

Hey! Does he have no credibility?

The topic changed.

"And there is another reason why I chose the forbidden place in Wanyuan City."

Seeing Wang Ming's embarrassed expression and his desire to shift the blame to someone else, Qiao Bai spoke again, interrupting what Wang Ming was saying before he could finish.

Wang Ming: “…”

Tsk.

hateful!

What was wrong with his expression, revealing signs that made Professor Qiao Bai see that he wanted Professor Qiao Bai to change to a safer forbidden place? Although in a sense.

There is no such thing as a completely safe forbidden place.

Just think about it, where wild supernatural creatures roam, you will realize that there is no absolute safety.

That's about it.

Qiao Bai smiled and said, "The problem with the Nightmare Flower happened in the forbidden area of ​​Wanyuan City."

"I want to find out whether the source is in the forbidden area of ​​Wanyuan City."

A sentence.

Wang Ming's expression changed again and again.

Wang Ming had to admit that what Qiao Bai said made sense, extremely reasonable, and he had no way of rejecting it.

grass.

Although he didn't know what happened to the Nightmare Flower.

But just looking at Qiao Bai's serious look before and Professor Ge's cooperative look, you know that things will definitely not be simple.

Think of this.

Wang Ming's mouth began to feel numb and the root of his tongue felt bitter.

What a miserable life! How come he bumped into me?

What kind of luck is this! Wang Ming almost cried out.

This was his last bit of stubbornness and dignity.

Definitely can't leave it here!

Raising his head and wiping his face fiercely, Wang Ming let out a long breath of foul air from his chest: "Professor Qiao Bai, I understand what you mean."

"If that's the case... I really have no reason to stop you. This matter is more serious than you think."

Wang Ming's expression gradually became serious.

Qiao Bai nodded with satisfaction.

very good.

This is the effect he wanted.

Then Wang Ming continued, "But to ensure your safety, I will apply to go in with you."

Qiao Bai: “…”

"Cough cough." Qiao Bai coughed twice, and his expression looked a little helpless.

"That's not necessary."

Qiao Bai said sincerely.

He blinked his big eyes which looked very sincere, radiating his sincerity from the inside out.

No need.

There's really no need.

Just trust him! Who knows, he might want to do something shameful in secret later?

What's going on when you bring this person along?

But Wang Ming would not accept Qiao Bai rushing around alone.

Li Gan: “?”

What about him?

Isn't he a human? Wang Ming gave Li Gan a look that showed his own understanding.

To know whether it counts or not, just ask Li Gan if he has no idea in his mind.

Li Gan: “…”

Holding her little Xiaoqi, she cried.

Novice beast masters have no human rights! Qiao Bai didn't want to bring one more person with him.

If it was just Li Gan, he could still trick Li Gan back.

Add Wang Ming to the mix, and it won't be so easy to fool him !

The two were at a stalemate.

Qiao Bai tried to use the trick...but failed.
