Chapter 234: Chapter 230: Reviving the Ancient Species
Translator: 549690339
Bai Qi increasingly felt the need to get a set of genetic equipnt, no, preferably a complete set of biochemical apparatus.
Not just for the research of Gamma’s evolution plan, Husky’s chanical and fleshy fusion had also been idle for quite a while, so they could take this opportunity to research it as well.
Oh right, also the rune evolution plan for fleshy lives, they could research that too.
Yeah, that was the plan.
Bai Qi raised his head and simply told Bai Yan and Luo Zhu his ideas.
“You want to buy a complete set of biochemical research equipnt?”
Luo Zhu looked at Bai Qi with so surprise, saying, “Not to dampen your enthusiasm son, but the whole set, even if it’s not the top-of-the-line, would still cost hundreds of millions of Federal Coins. Although your father and I have so savings, it won’t be enough.”
Bai Yan nodded, saying, “Right, although your father has so connections and could get so discounts, at most we’ll only be able to buy a basic gene analyzer, which isn’t very useful.”
“I think, son, you better go to your parents’ lab. Your father is a person-in- charge now, they won’t let your pet beast be used for dissection by others.” Upon hearing this, Bai Qi smacked his lips, saying, “May I say that I’m actually afraid you two will dissect Delta?”
Hearing this, Luo Zhu’s face showed anger, saying, “What kind of son doesn’t trust his parents? Your mother might only collect so sample tissues…” Luo Zhu’s voice gradually trailed off and eventually she stopped talking.
Quite obviously, she didn’t believe her own words.
“I can handle the money. I still have so savings.”
Bai Qi took out a Federation Card and handed it to Luo Zhu, saying, “I have been spending quite a lot lately and only have a billion left. If it’s not enough, can you two help out? I’ll pay you back later.”
Bai Yan: “…”
Luo Zhu: “…”
Luo Zhu dumbfoundedly accepted the Federation Card. After seeing a row of zeros on the card, it took her a long ti to react.
“Son, is the Rune Evolution patent really yours?”
Bai Qi sighed helplessly, saying, “Don’t you two watch the news? Wasn’t it made clear at the press conference? Even if you didn’t see that, Master Lan just ntioned it.”
A hint of an apology appeared on Bai Yan’s face, saying, “We were working on a big research project, and the secrecy ordinance does not allow us to communicate with the outside world.”
Alright, it was the secrecy ordinance again.
“Son, let’s not talk about the equipnt for now, first tell us about your recent experiences,” Luo Zhu seeing this intervened, Bai Qi did not hesitate, led the two of them to the lounge, served a pile of tonics and then began recounting his adventures.
“…Finally, I helped the Thirteenth Bureau get the Dual Sky eh, both sides got one each, after that, I just ca back.”
Bai Qi succinctly told both of them about his experiences since his talent awakening. Most of the unimportant things were basically skipped.
Still, Bai Yan and Luo Zhu felt overwheld and took a while to digest everything.
“Simply put, son, you’ve sequentially entered the Emperor’s Secret Realm and Law Emperor’s Secret Realm in this period, incidentally becoming Bai Chuanqi’s disciple, and also researched two core patents in your spare ti?”
In the end, it was Bai Yan who summarized Bai Qi’s main experiences during this ti.
“Um, it’s pretty much that,” said Bai Qi. “But the inco from the core patents is not yet fully stabilized. It should be all good after the unveiling of the Rune Tier 2 Evolution, I just didn’t expect that Master Lan would move so fast. I was planning to perfect the Spirit Power Storage Device first.”
Seeing Bai Qi’s sowhat regretful deanor, Luo Zhu and Bai Yan looked at each other.
They say that children surpass their parents, but their own son seed to have not only surpassed them, but also traversed realms!
The two of them remained silent for a long ti and finally, they silently accepted Bai Qi’s Federation Card, saying, “I’ll contact you as soon as the equipnt is in place. However, Biochemistry is also a big topic. Since you haven’t dealt with it before, it would be better if we could help you study it when both of us are free.”
Bai Qi nodded. Not using the two experts in his family would indeed be foolish. If nothing else worked, he could always have them tutor him.
“By the way, what was that about the Ancient Biological Embryo, mom ntioned earlier? Was it also found in the Emperor’s Secret Realm?”
The only ti he encountered an ancient species was in the Emperor’s Secret Realm. Now that his parents ca to the association for a handover, the probabilities seed quite high.
Upon hearing Bai Qi’s query, Bai Yan’s lips imdiately tightened, while Luo Zhu nodded without concern, saying, “Yes, the association found it and asked us to research it.”
“Zhu, you’re violating the secrecy ordinance,” Bai Yan frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied with Luo Zhu’s behavior.
“What’s there to fear, he is our son. Besides, this is his realm, there are no surveillance or recording devices here.”
Er…?
(Schuck, did you record that?)
Schuck, “What do you think…”
Seeing Schuck’s reaction, Bai Yan didn’t argue anymore. He could only grab the juice in front of him and start drinking, while Luo Zhu continued to explain to Bai Qi, “There was a living Ancient Species at the Association before, but these Ancient Species seem to be unable to adapt to the current external environnt, they all died as soon as they left the Secret Realm.”
“Fortunately, the Ancient people’s preserved embryos were fairly intact, and the complete genes of the Ancient Species were also extracted from so fossils, leaving us a path to revival.”
“Revive the Ancient Species?”
Upon hearing his mother’s words, Bai Qi was sowhat shocked.
To this day, countless pet beasts had evolved and been eliminated. There had even been several extinctions of pet beasts in the Federation’s history. But these events were not publicised because the reasons were sowhat laughable.
After all, it was hardly credible that a species could be eaten into extinction.
And now, his parents wanted to revive an Ancient Species?
Were they planning on opening a Jurassic Park? Oh no, it should be called the Original Era Park here?
“Yes, our consortium has always been committed to researching the ancient genes hidden in the bloodline of pet beasts and finding scientific solutions to resurrect mythical creatures. Reviving the Ancient Species is just a milestone task.”
“It’s just that we hadn’t found a suitable embryonic carrier before. Now that we’ve found intact embryos, naturally, we can’t let it slip.”
Luo Zhu nodded and said, “It’s a pity that you chose chanical Engineering. With your smart brain, you might have already found a way to resurrect them by now.”
Bai Qi scratched his head and said, “Mom, you have too much faith in . If you ask to fix two machines, I might be able to do it. But researching gene resurrection of Ancient Species…”
Bai Qi was interrupted by a sudden thought. He turned to look at Delta, who had already started training for a new day, and asked, “Mom and Dad, what would happen if we put an Ancient Species’ genes into an Ancestral Beast?”
Bai Yan was taken aback upon hearing this and imdiately shook his head, saying, “We’ve tried Ancestral Beasts, and they can’t carry the genes of an Ancient Species. After all, the fact Ancestral Beasts can still survive until now, their gene strength can’t…”
“Gene strength?!”
Bai Yan abruptly stopped speaking and looked at Delta outside the window. Luo Zhu also reacted and said, “The genes of an Ancient Species are generally stronger than those of current creatures, so it’s hard to find a suitable embryonic carrier. So, what if we did the opposite and weakened the genes of the Ancient Species first?”
“It’s embarrassing that we hadn’t thought of such a simple thod.”
Realizing they had overlooked such an uncomplicated strategy, Bai Yan laughed at himself. Luo Zhu’s gaze on Bai Qi, however, beca even more approving.
“As expected of my brilliant son, who solved a tough problem in minutes. Why don’t you change your major? Switch to biology. With your parents’ help, you’ll catchup quickly.”
Bai Qi helplessly sighed and said, “Mom, spare . I’m already studying chanical and rune engineering. If I start studying biology too, your son will keel over.”
“True, you’ve already achieved a lot in these two fields. There’s no need to divide your attention.”
Seeming sowhat regretful, Luo Zhu nodded and didn’t insist anymore.
” But I think what you were talking about sounds fun. Can you take to see these Ancient Species genes and stuff?”
Bai Qi scratched his head and said, “I haven’t tried to make Delta evolve into an Ancient Species yet. That could be an interesting route to explore.”
Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Bai Yan was silent for a mont, looked at Delta again, then finally nodded, “Alright, let’s see if an Ancestral Beast can really carry the genes of an Ancient Species.”
“Great!”
Upon hearing his dad agree with his idea, Bai Qi was both surprised and excited.
The Ancient Species… just look at that saber-toothed tiger. Even with it being malnourished and limited by a slave contract, it still showed such power. If Delta could evolve into a similar form, it would be a big gain. At worst, even if it de-evolved back, the data the Ancient Species could provide should still be more than that from other creatures. Even just accelerating Delta’s basic data accumulation would be good.
Agreeing instantly, the three of them imdiately left the Secret Realm with Delta and headed straight for the Moon Night Tower.
Although the Ancient embryos were well-preserved, they were, after all, no longer in their original Secret Realm. To avoid issues like those the Ancient Species had, the Association had transported all the embryos to the Moon Night Tower for protection.
In short, embryo preservation.
After a series of checks, Bai Qi finally arrived at the place where the Ancient Species embryos were being stored.
At the sa ti, he also ran into so familiar faces.
“Uncle Chun, Feng Ye? What are you guys doing here?”
Bai Qi was sowhat surprised to see Feng Ye carefully moving a pile of fossils.
“Bai Qi?”
Feng Ye was also sowhat taken aback. Chun Yushui, who was standing next to him, chuckled after a glance at Bai Yan and Luo Zhu beside Bai Qi, “I was wondering why Bai Qi looked familiar, turns out it’s Xiao Bai’s kid!”
Xiao Bai?
Bai Qi was startled and couldn’t help but look at Bai Yan, who had a slight twitch in the corner of his eye, suddenly trying to hold back a laugh.
My dad’s nickna is Xiao Bai?
I gotta laugh for a bit…
