Beast Taming Patrol

Recalling the questions Qin Nan had asked him before, it was clear that her research project was on the secondary evolution of the Divine Light Butterfly, and it was a type with spirit, light, and fire attributes.

Without a doubt, if such an evolution type existed, it would undoubtedly belong to the monarch species, and even be among the cream of the crop.

For such an important research achievement, it's not surprising that one could earn a hundred thousand contribution points upon completion.

Contributions points for new evolutionary results targeting the monarch species always start with tens of thousands.

"Let's try it the way you suggested yesterday," said Qin Nan as she led Lin Su into a laboratory with over a thousand Divine Light Butterflies, quickly choosing one that had already mastered the evolution skill and was in good condition.

This woman was really bold; she dared to try whatever you suggested.

She turned her head to look at Qiuqiu lying in Lin Su's arms and frowned slightly, "Why don't you put Qiuqiu in the next room? That's an automated training room that can simulate the appropriate training content and environment based on the pet beast species to help with training, but it's limited to Talent Skills."

Qin Nan, who was previously engrossed in petting a cat, now entered research mode and began to find Qiuqiu a nuisance, a typical new-era research flunky.

There's such a good place?

Lin Su had initially planned to return Qiuqiu to the Beast Taming Space, but upon hearing this, his interest was piqued, "Then I'll go take a look next door."

The eyes of Qiuqiu, nestled in his arms, also lit up, "Meow! (｡✪ω✪｡)" (I can train again!)

Clearly, the little fellow had no interest in the two people's research, only in training.

I, Qiuqiu, am focused!

"Your ID card will let you in," Qin Nan said, pressing down on the struggling Divine Light Butterfly, frowning, "Hurry there and back."

When the boss speaks, Lin Su rushed to the next room, swiping his newly acquired ID card to open the door and entering.

Inside was a vast and empty room, wrapped on all six sides with some special material.

As Lin Su and Qiuqiu entered, the room soon echoed with a mechanical voice.

[Detected pet beast: Snow Trace, initiate training mode?]

"Yes." Following Lin Su's response, the surroundings quickly changed, transforming into a snowy training ground with thick layers of snow.

Feeling the temperature drop instantly to below zero, Lin Su blinked and bent down to touch the knee-deep snow.

This is real snow...

This magical effect was clearly not something that could be achieved by technology alone; it was inextricably linked to the supernatural powers of mutant beasts.

[Pet beast status check complete.]

[Pet beast training plan established.]

[Training is about to begin, please leave the room, Beast Tamer. If there are any training resources, please give them to the pet beast in advance.]

This is too intelligent...

Blinking, Lin Su took out a first-order ice attribute Energy Cube from his arms and handed it to Qiuqiu, then turned and left the room.

"Qiuqiu, do your best!" Before closing the door, Lin Su didn't forget to encourage and cheer for Qiuqiu.

"Meow! (^ω^)ฅ" (Okay!)

Once the door closed, Qiuqiu quickly devoured the ice attribute Energy Cube, feeling an overwhelming surge of energy within its body. In its icy blue eyes shone a bright fighting spirit.

"Meow! Meow!" (Train! To become strong and protect the Beast Tamer!)

Shutting the door to the training room, envy filled Lin Su's eyes.

Back in District 32, he had never even heard of such a room specifically designed for training; was this how Beast Tamers in District 11 trained their beasts?

Lin Su hurried back to Qin Nan's side, unable to resist asking about it.

"How could that be possible?" Qin Nan's expression turned strange, "That's a training room our lab uses to mass-train pet beast skills, and it's very difficult for individuals to own one."

"The training room you just visited can only be used by juvenile stage and elite stage pet beasts; those at the commander stage and above can't use it. Even so, such a room would cost twenty thousand contribution points, not available for purchase with union currency."

Is that so?

Lin Su felt immediately better.

"But..." Qin Nan coughed lightly, lowering her voice, "When the room is not in use for experiments, you're free to use it however you want, and nobody will say anything, understand what I mean?"

"Understood!" Lin Su's eyes suddenly brightened.

Sister Nan is so generous!

With such a training room, he would no longer need to look for a special training location.

That would save a considerable amount of training site fees.

"Okay, start researching right away."

"Right! I think we can do this... and then this..."

Since Qin Nan was so open with him, Lin Su felt it wouldn't be right to hold back, so he further refined some details that he hadn't previously explained very clearly.

"You're pretty good, kid, let's give it a try..."

…

The first thing Lin Su did when he arrived in Area 11 was to spend an afternoon with Qin Nan conducting research on the Divine Light Butterfly's second evolutionary phase project.

In the end, the experiment ended in failure.

It proved that copying the evolution method of one pet beast directly onto another was simply not viable.

However, according to the analysis, this research direction was closer to success compared to Qin Nan's previous solo research efforts, so Lin Su and Qin Nan planned to continue making various adjustments and comparisons to it.

This was destined to be work that required some time to complete.

When the research was over and Lin Su brought Qiuqiu back from the adjacent training room, Qiuqiu had once again fallen into a state of exhaustion.

The training room's AI had planned a training regimen that focused on the pet beasts' core skills as the primary training targets, and their Talent Skills as secondary.

Therefore, during the afternoon training, Qiuqiu's Frost Storm had been intensely trained, and with the help of Energy Cubes imbued with ice attributes, its own attributes were somewhat purified. Together, the power of the Frost Storm had seen a significant improvement from before.

As for Snow Trace, Qiuqiu was already on the verge of reaching the second stage, and before a complete breakthrough, it still needed some time to accumulate experience, so no improvements were noticeable for now.

After taking Qiuqiu back to the Beast Taming Space to rest, Lin Su went back to the dormitory to organize his belongings and then lay down on the bed.

A lot had happened that day, whether it was the attack from the alien beasts on the transport plane in the morning or the experiment with Qin Nan in the afternoon, it was all an unprecedented experience for him.

After replaying all that happened during the day in his mind, the already exhausted Lin Su slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

…

Martial arts.

Sitting up from the bed, Lin Su clenched his fists firmly.

The sensation of strength had returned to his body. After two days of recuperation, the injuries he had sustained in the Frost Fall Mountain Range had mostly healed.

In this world, martial artists often sustain injuries, whether in combat or during regular training, so the demand for healing medications is extremely high. With many people researching them, the effectiveness of these medicines gradually improved over time.

The injuries Lin Su sustained this time were life-threatening, yet with the help of healing-centric pet beasts and medicines, he managed to recover in just two days, leaving only a few light scars.

Now that his body had healed, it was time to carry out his previous plans.

He wanted to visit the Beast Taming Union in this world.

Whether it was the energy potions he could craft himself or other beast taming methods different from those on Blue Star, Lin Su was very curious about them all.

The Beast Taming Union was located in the city, not far from the Lin Family, and the Union Chairman was an acquaintance of Lin Su's father, so there certainly wouldn't be any danger. Nevertheless, bearing past experiences in mind, Lin Su still received a round of cautions from his mother before he left.

Soon, he arrived at the location of the Beast Taming Union. After completing the simple registration process, he began to ask the union staff member who had assisted him where he could learn to craft energy potions.

This was related to Qiuqiu's future dietary needs, so naturally, it was of utmost concern to Lin Su.

"The method to craft energy potions?" the union staff member smiled, "That's easy, you just need to..."

His words suddenly stopped as he looked past Lin Su, admiration filling his eyes, "Good day, Vice Chairman."

Vice Chairman?

Lin Su instinctively turned his head and, upon seeing the figure walking past him, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Is it you?"
