The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 51 The Self-Destructing Parrot

Kongkong's tenth molt!

It was a few days later than Yun Che had expected.

This was only after I fed the little guy a berry last night; otherwise, I guess I would have had to wait a few more days.

"Snap, snap—"

"Woo?" The crisp sound also attracted the attention of Iris. It came to Kongkong's side and looked at Yun Che with a puzzled expression.

"It's nothing, it's just shedding its skin," Yun Che reassured him.

"Ugh..." Upon hearing this, Iris breathed a sigh of relief and stood silently to the side, looking at Kong Kong.

Soon, the transparent skin became cloudy, cracked open, and an empty, slippery creature crawled out.

Noticing the energy cubes that Yun Che had prepared in advance, he started eating them without saying a word.

They were making noise while eating.

"Chirp~(๑´ڡ`๑)"

It's delicious!

At the same time, Yun Che was also observing the changes in Kong Kong.

The most conspicuous feature is undoubtedly its head.

What were once small bumps that could only be felt by touch have now turned into two sharp little corners!

very small.

But if you look closely, you can see it.

Dragon horns!

Moreover, Yun Che noticed that the dragon bones that Kong Kong had been using as a pillow under his head had become somewhat dull, and the dragon attribute energy within them had been almost completely depleted.

Even the dragon scales that Kongkong had always used as a small blanket had lost some of their shimmering light.

The process of transforming into a dragon has taken another step forward!

If you were to place Kongkong in front of someone now and let them observe it closely, and say that Kongkong is not a green velvet worm but a little green dragon, I reckon some people would already believe it.

With the help of Tokiwa's power, Yun Che could also feel that the dragon attribute energy in Kong Kong's body had become more concentrated, and his body had become stronger.

However, to Yun Che's surprise, even after molting ten times, Kong Kong's strength level was still only at the late stage of the mutation stage.

Isn't ten molts the limit for Kong Kong?

Although I was slightly disappointed.

But for Yun Che, it was actually a good thing.

This gave him more time to strengthen his Beast Taming Space, lest Kong Kong advance to a lower-level transcendent and cause his Beast Taming Space to become unstable.

Moreover, this also shows that Kongkong still has untapped potential in the later stages of the mutation, and can still make a final push for the Jianghuai Tower level.

Other beast tamers, once they've increased their strength, might look down on the credits awarded by Jianghuai Tower during the mutation period, but he wouldn't.

He's currently short of resources, so he'll take as much as he can get his hands on!

"Chirp!" After finishing the energy cube, Kongkong let out a satisfied sigh.

cool!

"Stop having fun, come on, put it on."

Yun Che took the energy strap that had fallen off during the molting process and put it on the little guy.

Adjusting the angle perfectly blocks out the empty little corner.

Just then, the phone on the table vibrated.

"Waaah~"

The iris's tail curled over the phone and handed it to Yun Che.

After thanking him, he picked up his phone and glanced at it, only to find that it was a message from Dr. Niu.

Tell him to go to the research institute after his afternoon class.

I don't know what Dr. Niu wanted to talk to him about, but he replied with "okay".

I put away my phone and tidied up the empty tenth mortise.

"Let's go, time for training!"

...

After completing the morning training and having lunch at the base, Yun Che took the two little ones back to school.

University classes officially began this afternoon.

Yun Che arrived at the classroom early and found a seat near the front.

Kongkong perched on his shoulder, curiously looking around.

Students gradually came in.

When Cao Siyue entered the classroom, his gaze lingered on Yun Che and Kong Kong for a moment before he looked away and quietly sat down in the corner.

"Yun Che, you're quite the hidden talent! You really made our Class Two proud yesterday!"

As the class monitor and a man of many talents, Xiong Yuhe saw Yun Che, sat down in the first row in front of him, and turned around to say with a smile.

"But he's not as good as the class monitor," Yun Che said modestly.

Five students from their class took the entrance exam yesterday, and they entered through the extraordinary level. Class monitor Xiong Yuhe was one of them.

It is said that he passed three tests yesterday.

Although it didn't cause as much of a commotion as Yun Che, it still demonstrated his strength.

Xiong Yuhe waved his hand, "I'm not even sure I can beat you."

"The class monitor is being modest."

The fact that Xiong Yuhe's pet beast was able to pass the three extraordinary levels indicates that it is at least at the intermediate extraordinary level.

This class monitor is not only good at interpersonal relationships, but also quite capable.

The two exchanged a smile and said nothing more.

Just before class started, Sun Yifan, who had just entered the classroom, plopped down next to him and whispered:

"Cloud God, did you see the campus forum last night?"

Cloud God?

Yun Che's eye twitched. "Don't shout nonsense."

Sun Yifan chuckled, raised his eyes at Kongkong, and was about to speak when Yun Che pointed to the podium and said:

"Class is starting."

Tian Yinzheng walked into the classroom, first briefly introduced the course schedule for this semester, and then began the first theoretical class, on the basics of pet energy circulation.

Yun Che listened attentively.

The knowledge of beast taming taught in university is indeed much deeper than the seemingly superficial knowledge taught in high school.

Although he has a lot of practical experience, he does lack theoretical knowledge.

Kongkong got bored after listening for a while and snuggled into Yun Che's arms to doze off.

On the contrary, it's the iris.

He crouched at the edge of the shadow, listening intently and nodding occasionally.

...

Dr. Niu's Research Institute.

This time, instead of someone waiting for him at the door, it was an extraordinary creature!

A parrot, a mechanical parrot.

It flapped its wings and landed on the guard post at the entrance of the research institute, where it saw Yun Che and made a mechanical sound.

"Please show your identification! Please show your identification! If you fail to show identification after three warnings, we will take drastic measures!"

"Chirp?" Kongkong looked at the mechanical parrot with great curiosity, and couldn't help but think of Dr. Niu's silver-eyed scout bird.

Although he wasn't sure what kind of extraordinary means it would involve, Yun Che still cooperated and took out his campus card.

Red aurora light shot from the mechanical parrot's eyes, sweeping across the campus card and Yun Che.

"Identity confirmed, passage granted!"

As it spoke, the mechanical parrot's mechanical face surprisingly revealed a rather human-like expression of disappointment.

Disappointed?

Just as Yun Che was wondering, the mechanical parrot flapped its wings twice and flew away, repeatedly shouting, "Detonation failed! Detonation failed!"

Detonate?

He suddenly remembered that when he was looking at the table of contents of the book "A Compilation of Uncommon Extraordinary Creatures in Pingyang Province" yesterday, he seemed to have seen a parrot-like mechanical extraordinary life form in the section on mechanical extraordinary creatures.

After trying hard to recall, I vaguely remembered some things.

"I think it's called... the Suicide Parrot?"

Yun Che's expression turned somewhat strange, and his cheeks twitched.

Good heavens, they've got such an extraordinary creature guarding the gate?

That's truly... incredibly safe.

I walked into the research institute building and arrived at Dr. Niu's office door, then gently knocked.

"Please come in."

Push open the door.

Dr. Niu was staring at the computer on the table, seemingly looking at some data, with a serious expression.

"You're here?" Dr. Niu looked up and gestured for Yun Che to sit down. "I have something for you."

As he spoke, he took out a device from the drawer that was similar to a mobile phone but twice the size.

"It should have been given to you a long time ago, but an upgrade was just completed, so it was delayed until now."

"This is..." Yun Che picked up the instrument with a puzzled look.

"Illustrated Guide"

Dr. Niu laughed and said, "This is the result of a project led by a friend of mine. It's a semi-finished result, and it's currently in the trial and testing phase. He invited some people to help with the testing, and as a member of the research group, I also got a few units."

An illustrated guide?!

Yun Che was taken aback.

He said, "How could the Beast Taming World not have an encyclopedia of extraordinary creatures?"

This is good stuff!

This is especially true for a novice beast tamer like him.

"However, don't rely too much on the encyclopedia. It can help you identify some extraordinary creatures, but in real combat, your opponent may not give you that opportunity. So you still need to learn the knowledge you need to learn," Dr. Niu advised.

"I understand," Yun Che nodded.

Putting everything else aside, can you really bring a picture book into the exam room?

However, having an illustrated guide does make learning much easier.

"By the way, there's a new discovery in the upper reaches of the Lanjiang River. I'm leading a team to collect samples this weekend, and I need someone to help with data recording and sample collection. How about you take on the role?"

Before Yun Che could speak, Dr. Niu continued:

"I'll talk to the school and get your internship credits."

Are there academic credits?

There weren't any conflicts over the weekend.

Yun Che thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Then it's settled." Dr. Niu patted him on the shoulder.
