The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 52 Kong Kong and Ya Ya's Second Battle

"Dr. Niu, junior Yun Che~"

Dr. Niu and Yun Che were still discussing the sampling arrangements for the weekend when the office door was pushed open. The person who came in saw the two of them and greeted them with a smile.

Looking in the direction of the sound, Yun Che was slightly taken aback.

The person who arrived was none other than Lan Xiangya, who was holding a Blue Feather Rin Duck!

"Ivory, you've arrived," Dr. Niu said. "Perfect timing. You and A-Che can talk to him and tell him about some dangers he needs to be aware of."

Then, Dr. Niu said to Yun Che, "Xiangya is a member of our sampling team this time. She is also a graduate student at our university, but I am not her advisor."

ivory?

Xiang Ya?

So that's what it's called...

For some reason, when he called a girl "ivory," the image of a mammoth involuntarily popped into his mind.

and many more!

Combatants?

If Lan Xiangya can tame a cub of the low-level monarch race, Lan Yu Lin Duck, doesn't that mean her beast taming space level is at least the peak of level four or even level five?

Master-level Beast Tamer?

If such combat personnel are needed, then this sampling operation... is probably going to be very dangerous!

Seemingly sensing Yun Che's thoughts, Lan Xiangya sat down on the sofa and said with a smile:

"The lower reaches of the Lanjiang River belong to Jianghuai City, but the upper reaches of the Lanjiang River... are outside of Jianghuai City."

The urban area and the rural areas outside the city are two different concepts.

Within the city, the Beast Tamer Association regularly sends Beast Tamers to clear the wilderness, but outside the city... that's the real wilderness, where you might encounter any kind of extraordinary creature.

Yun Che immediately felt a pang of regret.

But then I thought about it again.

Dr. Niu wouldn't go so far as to drag himself into such a self-destructive act.

Even if he was willing, the people from Jianghuai University, the Beast Tamer Association, and the City Hall would never allow such a precious PhD to be sent to his death.

Thinking of this, Yun Che calmed down.

Lan Xiangya raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Dr. Niu, who was organizing documents nearby, laughed and said, "Ivory, don't scare your junior. Although the upper reaches of the Blue River are outside the city, they are not far from the city. The influence of the Beast Tamers is still there."

Lan Xiangya pouted, "Doctor, do you see how scared my junior looks? He's a genius who made it into the top ten on his first challenge of Jianghuai Tower."

"Senior, don't flatter me to death." Yun Che's smile was full of helplessness.

Dr. Niu was clearly aware of this as well, and maintained his smile without saying a word.

"This isn't flattery; these are real credits. The tenth place winner will also receive an extra 50 credits."

50 credits?

"you do not know?"

Yun Che said embarrassedly, "I've been too busy and haven't checked yet."

"You can check it on the school's official website." Lan Xiangya took out her phone and gave a brief demonstration. "Not only can you check it, but you can also redeem it directly, and the school will deliver the items to your door."

She opened an interface that looked like a shopping website.

Yun Che glanced at Lan Xiangya and saw her remaining credits: 4299!

Stealing the young master?!

Shocked, he followed Lan Xiangya's instructions, logged into his account, entered the dedicated "Credit Exchange" page, and saw his credits.

113 points.

I thought I had enough credits, but compared to Lan Xiangya's... I felt they were pitifully few.

But when Yun Che saw the resources on the website, his expression changed completely.

Level 1 resources, 1-2 credits!

Level 2 resources, 3-6 credits!

Level 3 resources, 10-20 credits!

Due to access restrictions, he can currently only see resources up to level 3.

But that was enough to shock him.

Level 3 resources correspond to the resources needed by pets of medium and high extraordinary strength, and their selling price outside is at least 5 or more.

Moreover, the variety of resources on the website is much richer than outside.

Even the extremely rare spatial attribute item, the Space Stone, is available.

A level 3 resource stone requires 80 credits to redeem, and is limited in quantity with redemption requirements.

The exchange ranges listed earlier correspond to relatively common resources. It is normal that rare resources like Yu Shi are not included in the ranges.

Only then did Yun Che finally realize the value of academic credits.

We must try again to conquer Jianghuai Tower!

While Yun Che was browsing the school website, Kong Kong climbed down from his shoulder.

"Quack~" Blue Feather Rin Duck flapped its wings and flew down from Lan Xiangya's arms.

Actually, the two little ones had already spotted each other when Lan Xiangya entered the office.

"Chirp~╭(●｀∀´●)╯" (Hey, duck brother, long time no see!)

"Gah! (ಠ∩ಠ)" (Duel time!)

Eh?

Kongkong scratches his head. "Are you a duck? Why are you so irritable?"

"Gah!" (Come on!)

The duck raised its wings, and at the base of the wings, muscles could be faintly seen bulging.

After losing to Kongkong last time, it trained very seriously.

How could the mighty King Duck lose to a green velvet twice?

"Chirp...(*´﹃｀*)" (Such bright and shiny duck wings...)

Duck: "?"

"Chirp, chirp!" (Ahem, well, since you insist, let's go!)

Kongkong crawled closer, pried up its tail, and placed it on either side of the duck's wings.

hum-

This time, Ya Ya made no attempt to hide her true feelings, and a surge of spiritual power immediately emanated from her eyes.

No skills were used; it was purely mental power.

"Huh?" The iris in Yun Che's shadow sensed this spiritual power and poked its head out. When it saw that it was Yaya, it looked enlightened.

It's a duck.

Noticing this, Kongkong dared not hold back. He took a deep breath and his whole body suddenly tensed up. Beneath his seemingly chubby body were extremely dense, knotted muscles.

boom! !

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted in the office, the floor tiles cracked, and dust billowed up, startling Yun Che, Lan Xiangya, and Dr. Niu.

Knowing he had made a mistake, Kongkong crept out from the dust, only to meet Yun Che's gaze. He immediately shuddered.

He pouted, tilted his head back at a 45-degree angle, and whistled.

"Chirp! (●´3｀)~♪" (I said, I was just passing by, do you believe me?)

Yun Che: "..."

"Gah! (PД`q。)·。'゜" Duck flapped its wings and rushed into Lan Xiangya's arms, its voice filled with sobs.

(Lost again!)

It has become stronger, but Kong Kong has become even stronger!

The gap has not only not narrowed, but has widened even further!

Second match.

Defeat!

The dust settled.

In the center of the office, a crater had collapsed, and the floor tiles had crumbled.

After a moment of silence, Dr. Niu burst out laughing.

"It's nothing, I'll have Ah Zhou call someone to fix it later."

Lan Xiangya comforted Ya Ya, both amused and exasperated. Knowing Ya Ya well, she knew that this "competition" was definitely started by Ya Ya again.

As a result, they suffered repeated defeats, yet they continued to fight.

Kongkong jumped onto Yun Che's shoulder, muttering to itself:

"Chirp~ Chirp~" (Can't see me~ Can't see me~)

Yun Che rubbed his forehead.

Lan Xiangya, who was comforting Ya Ya, noticed the instruments on the table.

"A new version of the encyclopedia?"

"Doctor, you're being biased! A-Che got it, but I didn't."

Dr. Niu glared at her, feigning annoyance. "Didn't your advisor give it to you?"

Just kidding~

Yun Che picked up the illustrated guide.

Actually, he had wanted to try it earlier, but Lan Xiangya's entry interrupted his thoughts.

Open the encyclopedia.

Following the instructions, I was about to scan the empty space when I hesitated.

The system identifies Arknights as Rayquaza, but what will this Pokédex identify it as?

"Let's collect the ducklings. It's an upgraded Pokédex, and I've never used it before," said Lan Xiangya, who was holding a Blue Feather Rin-duck.

Even without Dr. Niu's reminder, Yun Che understood that it was very impolite to use the encyclopedia on other people's pets without permission.

But since it was Lan Xiangya who took the initiative...

Upon hearing that he was going to have his picture taken, Duck immediately put on a serious face and adopted a dignified and majestic demeanor.

After scanning the illustrations, the results were quickly obtained.

【Name】：Blue Feather Rin Duck

[Attribute]: Water, Spirit

[Race Rank]: Low-ranking monarch

[Strength Level]: Late Stage of Mutation

[Racial Skills]: Water Purification, Mental Power, Raincoat, Water Mirror, Water Element Control, Mental Domain...

Can the encyclopedia also determine strength level?

That's convenient.
