Chapter 189: Chapter 152: Another Evolutionary Path—Thunderburst Dragonfly
At this moment, a crack appeared on the back of the Thunder Light Water Scorpion, which quickly expanded, and dragonfly exotic beasts covered in mucus emerged from the broken husk one by one.
Among them were quite a few Thunderlight Dragonflies, but there were some dragonfly exotic beasts Ye Bai had never seen.
The Thunderlight Dragonfly is a large dragonfly exotic beast; its wings can emit terrifying thunderlight, hence it is called Thunderlight Dragonfly.
Its eyes are large, and its tail resembles a socket; its wings faintly emit streams of electric currents.
[Name: Thunderlight Dragonfly]
[Gender: Male]
[Trait: Acceleration]
[Level: Tier Three Level One]
[Mastered Skills: Thunder Flash (Skilled): Attacks the opponent with incredible speed, the sharp claws on its hands will strike the opponent.
Insect Chirping (Skilled): Emits piercing sonic waves from its mouth to attack the opponent.
Thunder Light (Skilled): Entangles its body in thunderlight and crashes ferociously into the opponent, with a one-third probability of inducing a paralysis state.
Thunder Cut (Beginner): Wraps its entire body in currents like a sharp treasure sword piercing toward the opponent.]
[Evolutionary Path 1: Thunder God Dragonfly: Thunder Core, Thunder Crystal Stone, Thunder Valley under a storm.]
[Evolutionary Path 2: Thunder Flash Dragonfly: Tier Four Thunder Crystal Core *3, Thunder Jade *2, accepts the erosion of thunder in a storm valley.]
Ye Bai suddenly noticed that the first evolutionary path did not specify the ratio of Thunder Core and Thunder Crystal Stone.
This suggests that the creature called Thunder God Dragonfly might still need experimental testing like this.
Male Thunderlight Dragonflies and female Thunderlight Dragonflies connected their tails, resulting in a more effective electricity generation.
The first, second, and third groups of Thunder Light Water Scorpions all evolved into Thunderlight Dragonflies.
While the fourth and fifth groups produced a new type of pet beast, named Thunderburst Dragonfly.
Its abdomen is large, looking like a potbellied figure from a distance, with powerful wings, electrical arcs racing all over its body, making crackling sounds.
Only Ye Bai knew that this pet beast’s belly was similar to a battery, serving as the Thunderburst Dragonfly’s electrical organ.
[Name: Thunderburst Dragonfly]
[Gender: Male]
[Trait: Static]
[Level: Tier Three Level One]
[Mastered Skills: Thunder Flash (Skilled): Attacks the opponent with incredible speed, the sharp claws on its hands will strike the opponent.
Thunder Burst (Skilled): Charges quickly at the opponent and immediately explodes its internal organs to go down with the opponent.
Thunder Light (Skilled): Entangles its body in thunderlight and crashes ferociously into the opponent, with a one-third probability of inducing a paralysis state.
Thunder Fist (Beginner): Wraps currents around its entire body, concentrating its strength in its fist, then attacks the opponent.
Electric Grid (Beginner): Summons a terrifying electric grid to attack the opponent.]
[Evolutionary Path 1: None]
After seeing the appearance of Thunderburst Dragonfly, Ye Bai smiled.
Success comes to those who are patient; finally, a new evolutionary path for the Thunder Light Water Scorpion has been developed.
This unknown evolutionary path was researched by Ye Bai himself, using special evolution material, Thunder Gall, and the Crystal Core of the Ancient Lantern Fish, all collected by the Sunflower Emperor.
Next, Ye Bai needs to investigate whether only the Thunder Crystal Core of the Ancient Lantern Fish is effective for the evolution of Thunderlight Dragonflies, or if other Thunder Crystal Cores could allow Thunder Light Water Scorpions to evolve into Thunderlight Dragonflies.
All these are Ye Bai’s considerations.
After the evolution, Ye Bai collected the Thunderlight Dragonfly and Thunderburst Dragonfly into the Beast Cards, conducting various tests on them.
According to the data from the tests, the higher the proportion of Thunder Gall, the greater the probability of evolving into a Thunderburst Dragonfly.
However, Ye Bai also tested the electric current index inside these exotic beasts.
The lower the proportion of Thunder Gall, the stronger the ability of the Thunderlight Dragonfly to control electricity, conversely, the higher the proportion of Thunder Gall, the stronger the explosiveness of electric skills.
Thunderburst Dragonflies are very suitable for attracting a large number of Dark Night Mosquitoes and then going down with them, just not sure about the explosion effect of Thunderburst Dragonflies.
Eventually, Ye Bai concluded that Thunderlight Dragonflies are best with a ratio of Thunder Gall 3, Ancient Lantern Fish Thunder Crystal Core 7.
While Thunderburst Dragonflies are best with a reverse ratio, Thunder Gall 7, Ancient Lantern Fish Thunder Crystal Core 3.
Ye Bai plans to mix these things into a potion to feed the Thunder Light Water Scorpions.
In one area, he will only feed one type of potion.
According to Ye Bai’s experimental records, each Thunder Light Water Scorpion only needs to be fed the potion three times to evolve.
However, Ye Bai still has to continue experimenting to prove whether Thunderlight Dragonfly eliminates more Dark Night Mosquitoes or Thunderburst Dragonfly does.
The next experiment is even more critical, it’s the breeding experiment.
Ye Bai needs these Thunderlight Dragonflies and Thunderburst Dragonflies to mate and breed new offspring.
He also has to test the hatching rate and overall hatching time, so Ye Bai is quite busy.
Male Thunderlight Dragonflies and Thunderburst Dragonflies have plugs on their tails, while female Thunderlight Dragonflies and Thunderburst Dragonflies have sockets on their tails.
They combine their tails swiftly to nurture insect eggs.
Female Thunderlight Dragonflies and Thunderburst Dragonflies’ bellies swelled visibly.
Then they flew to the water tank, fluttering like dragonflies, gently touching the water surface.
One by one, crystal-clear insect eggs were dropped from the Thunderlight Dragonfly and Thunderburst Dragonfly’s birthing canal.
Ye Bai counted and found about twenty eggs on each water tank, indicating both Thunderlight Dragonflies and Thunderburst Dragonflies have insufficient breeding ability.
But it was beyond Ye Bai’s expectations; he thought at most ten insect eggs would be produced by Thunderlight Dragonflies and Thunderburst Dragonflies, unexpectedly this many appeared.
Usually, to speed up progress, Ye Bai would use a nutritional potion, but to demonstrate the most authentic experimental data, Ye Bai let the insect eggs hatch on the water surface.
After a while, the eggs split open, and Thunder Light Water Scorpions, only the size of a thumb, fell into the water.
These young Thunder Light Water Scorpions ate the eggshells, their original color was transparent white, but after eating the eggshells, the new Thunder Light Water Scorpions grew larger, roughly fist-sized.
However, their bodies flashed with golden electric arcs, evidently not very weak.
"Phew, a hatch rate of eighty percent, it’s a decent result."
Those eggs that did not hatch were all swept away by the small Thunder Light Water Scorpions in the tank.
"Big Gray, Sunflower Emperor, I need to step out for a bit, please monitor the recording, see how long it takes for the Thunder Light Water Scorpions to grow to a meter long."
"If you feel overwhelmed, select a few to seal them into Beast Cards."
Ye Bai said hurriedly as he left, eager to report the experimental results to the two presidents.
He also wanted to test the attack power of these two exotic beasts.
Ye Bai found President Wang, who was pacing and sighing in the office of the Pet Beast Union.
"President Wang, I have good news to report."
"I have figured out how the Thunder Light Water Scorpion evolves into the Thunderlight Dragonfly."
"Moreover, during my research I discovered another dragonfly subtype, considered a branch evolution of the Thunder Light Water Scorpion."
"I can formulate a potion to evolve Thunder Light Water Scorpions into Thunderlight Dragonflies or Thunderburst Dragonflies."
President Wang sighed deeply, "Ye Bai, how do you think we can completely defeat the Dark Night Mosquitoes and restore a bright Jiaying City?"
Ye Bai suddenly said, "President Wang, I hope to conduct a pet beast diversity battle. Please send me a thousand Dark Night Mosquitoes later; I want to see if the Thunderlight Dragonfly’s power increases after evolution."
Catching Dark Night Mosquitoes was within President Wang’s manageable control range.
In President Wang’s decisive situation, special provisions were made.
Under Secretary Liang’s guidance, Ye Bai came to the competition platform; this place he was not unfamiliar with, as he spent some time here previously.
"Ye Bai, this time the battle must activate the defense barrier, otherwise I fear the Dark Night Mosquitoes will escape."
Secretary Liang reminded Ye Bai with a few words.
