Versatile Mage: Item Evolution Begins with Ice Scorpion

Chapter 3: Emerging, Silver-striped Scorpion, Ice-armored Scorpion General [3K]

Two months later, in Zerg space.

The black-armored giant scorpion and the ice-armored scorpion are working hard to reproduce high-quality larvae, while the electric centipede and the swift mantis are fighting nearby.

Not far away were the black ants - soldier ants - gathered in a circle, quietly waiting for their bodies to evolve.

“After the first batch of larvae from the ice-armored scorpions and black-armored giant scorpions hatch, we can show our strength to the Bai family and strive for more investment and resources.” Bai Ye thought as he looked at the giant insects in the Zerg space.

Yes, Bai Ye had never thought of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

Except for the Zerg space and his own talent entry extraction ability which would be kept in his heart, everything else could be displayed at will. After all, these were the capital of his strength that made him look down upon his peers.

He has the support of the Bai family, one of the four major families in the Magic City. No matter which family it is, only the strong and gifted can get more resources.

For example, long-term possession of the Spirit-level Stardust Magical Artifact/Spirit-level Nebula Magical Artifact, the more precious Warrior-level Insect Egg, or the Galaxy Vein that points directly to the high-level magician.
If you don't demonstrate your talent, strength and potential, no family will spend an extra penny on you.

"It's time to meditate."

Bai Ye withdrew his thoughts, and his consciousness sank into the silver-white space stardust. He practiced hard, seizing every opportunity!

A week later, Bai Ye, who had just come out of his meditation state, stretched himself, and his bones made a series of crisp sounds like popping beans.

The muscles and bones are roaring, the tigers and leopards are thundering! (No)
Chunchun just felt a little sore in the waist and back because Bai Ye had been meditating for too long these days.

After washing up, Bai Ye walked through several courtyards and headed straight towards the Bai family's meeting hall.

Many members of the Bai family could be seen along the way, and Bai Ye greeted them with a smile.

After arriving at the Bai family's meeting hall without any obstruction, Bai Ye saw the Bai family's head, Bai Wanpeng, and several clan elders discussing important matters, so he waited quietly by the side.

More than ten minutes later, Bai Wanpeng nodded to indicate that he could come in.

"Bai Ye, is there anything I can help you with? Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation?" Bai Wanpeng took a sip of the fragrant tea in the cup and said casually.

"Master, my two poisonous insects have been cultivated to the advanced stage of slave level. Now I am a little worried about the resources for them to advance to generals." Bai Ye said with a smile.

"What. A slave-level advancement stage, or two poisonous insects?! Summon them out and let me see." Bai Wanpeng looked at Bai Ye with a slightly suspicious look.

"Poison Cave - Poison Insect Summoning!"

Bai Ye nodded and began to draw a dark green poison star map. Three seconds later, the star map connected to the Zerg space, and two huge insects immediately rushed out.

Hiss~!

Hiss~!

Both giant insects are nine meters in size. The ice-armored scorpions are icy cold all over, and their frost shells have a unique beauty.

At this moment, it was waving a pair of light blue giant claws with a bit of fighting spirit. A circle of light blue ice crystals condensed on its body, giving people an extraordinary visual impact.

Two silver magic patterns are engraved on the thick carapace of the black-armored giant scorpion. Its shoulders, back, and eight limbs have extremely sharp edges. Its triangular head is covered with sharp bone spurs, and its sturdy forelimbs that look like they are holding two huge axes are covered with hard black heavy armor.

Two narrow bone sickles extend from its hind limbs, like half-open scissors, making it difficult for the enemy to attack it from behind. The rough lines of the exoskeleton highlight its powerful explosive muscles, and it is obviously an insect monster that is particularly good at close combat.

"Snapped!"

Bai Wanpeng nearly dropped the teacup in his hand as he looked at the two slave-level giant scorpions with shock in his pupils.

Several other middle-aged men also looked at Bai Ye and his two giant poisonous insects with surprise.

In just over two months, Bai Ye had achieved such success in the field of black magic.

If he grows up in time, perhaps the Bai family will also have a poison-type forbidden spell mage, and transform themselves into one of the top international aristocratic families!

"Very good! Bai Ye, your talent in cultivating poisonous insects is beyond our expectations. I have decided to train you as the number one young person in the Bai family. Your family will fully support your poison and space training resources.

I will ask the family resource library to allocate you a Nebula Vein later to help you break through the intermediate level of your space system. If you have any doubts about cultivation in the future, you can always go to those high-level priests for advice. "Bai Wanpeng promised with an excited look on his face.

Afterwards, Bai Wanpeng discussed with several elders and convened an impromptu family meeting, announcing that Bai Ye would be the first person in the family to be trained. Many young people in the family cast envious glances at him.

For example, Bai Zangfeng, Bai Tingting, Bai Hongfei and others who appeared in the original novel.
"You are all the future of our Bai family. You must catch up with Bai Ye in the field of magic. Do you have the confidence?"

Bai Wanpeng is worthy of being the patriarch of the Bai family. His simple words aroused the competitive spirit of many younger generations in the family.

"Have confidence."

"I want to work hard on my cultivation!"

"I can't let the master of the family look down on me."

The young people of the family all responded with slightly red faces. Bai Wanpeng, who was speaking on the podium, noticed that Bai Tingting frequently looked at Bai Ye and became thoughtful.
"An outstanding youngster like Bai Ye will inevitably be regarded as a potential stock by many women from aristocratic families during his growth. Bai Tingting is a good match for him, so we can pay attention to this aspect." Bai Wanpeng thought, stroking his chin.

Bai Ye was keenly aware that the head of the family, Bai Wanpeng, was constantly looking at him and Bai Tingting, but he had no idea what the other party was up to.

After the family meeting, when Bai Ye was about to return to his room to meditate, Bai Tingting, who was wearing a white dress, came over.

"Brother Bai Ye, are you going to meditate?" Bai Tingting asked with a faint smile.

"What's wrong? Tingting, is there something wrong?" Bai Ye said with a smile.

"It's nothing. Tingting just came here specially to congratulate Brother Bai Ye on becoming the first person of the Bai family's younger generation to be focused on training. I wish Brother Bai Ye to be promoted to a high-level magician as soon as possible." Bai Tingting congratulated with a sweet smile.

"Thank you, Tingting. You and I are family. There's no need to be so reserved when talking to each other." Bai Ye was stunned when he heard that, but quickly spoke softly.

"Tingting will not disturb Brother Bai Ye's meditation. Tingting will take her leave now." Bai Tingting blushed and waved her delicate hand, saying goodbye to Bai Ye and leaving quickly. "Okay, Tingting, see you next time."

Bai Ye waved his hand.

Looking at the girl's back gradually going away, Bai Ye couldn't help but sigh.

The healing girls' bodies develop at an extraordinary speed. The back of this healing girl, Bai Tingting, is extremely attractive, and her swaying figure shows the vitality of a young girl.

After admiring the beautiful scenery, Bai Ye turned and walked towards his room.

Just at the corner after Bai Ye turned and left, Bai Tingting in a white dress was hiding there. She gently patted her chest that was rising and falling rapidly, and her pink face was a little flushed.

"Bai Tingting, come on, you have already taken the first step with Brother Bai Ye. You are the best." She clenched her little pink fists and secretly cheered herself up.

Just now, after the family meeting, Bai Tingting was implicitly advised by the head of the family, Bai Wanpeng, to spend more time with Bai Ye, and his tone was full of encouragement for the two of them to be together.

Bai Wanpeng's words made Bai Tingting, who already had a good impression of Bai Ye, feel her heart beating fast. That's why she took the initiative to find Bai Ye to congratulate and praise him.

Bai Ye in the room had no idea about Bai Tingting's condition after he left. At this moment, he was using the Stardust magic weapon to meditate on the space stardust.

As a specific breathing rhythm slowly grew stronger, the newly born silver-white space stardust grew stronger bit by bit.
The benefits of showing off muscles appropriately are beyond imagination, or in other words, after Bai Ye was designated as the number one of the younger generation by the Bai family, the resources mobilized for his training were also spared no effort.

On that day, Bai Ye obtained two general-level scorpion advancement resources, including bone meal, bloodline, and two upper-middle-level general beast souls.

The Bai family is very sincere. The warrior bone powder and warrior bloodline are both semi-finished products that are easy to absorb. The scorpion monsters are not an unpopular race either. The two warrior beast souls are the most suitable for the attributes of the two poisonous insects.

After Bai Ye gave the bone meal and blood to the Ice-Armored Scorpion and the Black-Armored Giant Scorpion respectively, the natural daily advancement time of the two poisonous insects was directly reduced to 200 days.

Next, it is the most important general-level promotion ceremony!
However, just when Bai Ye released two warrior-level beast soul boxes, new information suddenly appeared in the Zerg space.

The two warrior-level scorpion beast souls, one black and one blue, only had time to let out a short hiss before they were absorbed into the Zerg space, transforming into two balls of light that quietly hovered above the Zerg space.

"Is this the origin of the soul?!" Bai Ye looked at the two balls of light in surprise.

It turns out that the Zerg space has a hidden function, which can transform animal souls into pure and easily absorbed soul essences. The insects only need to swallow and refine them like sucking jelly to advance 100% safely.

“I don’t know if the spirit can be transformed into a beast soul through the Zerg space, so should I awaken the undead system?
Forget it, let's not rush this, let's wait and see what new changes will happen in the Zerg space after we are promoted to a higher level." Bai Ye thought after seeing this scene.

With a wave of his hand, arrangements are made!

The Ice-Armored Scorpion and the Black-Armored Giant Scorpion respectively obtained soul origin light balls of corresponding attributes, and then the evolution began.

Buzz! ! !
Two giant light cocoons, one blue and one black, quickly condensed in the ample space. Bai Ye could sense that their aura was gradually strengthening, and they estimated that they would be able to advance to generals in a few hours.

Taking this opportunity, Bai Ye also looked at the first batch of young scorpions.

Unlike the scientific dimension of the previous life, where a female scorpion could lay 20 to 40 scorpion eggs at a time, and I don’t know if it was due to the energy influence of the Zerg space, the first batch of larvae only had four, um... two males and two females.

The male and female baby scorpions inherited the talents of their scorpion father and scorpion mother, the frost bloodline and the royal magic patterns respectively. Bai Ye felt a little regretful that there was no baby scorpion with both talents, so he could only wait to cultivate it later.

An hour later, the two giant light cocoons slowly shattered, and the tangible war beast field quickly swept across.

“Hiss~!
Hiss~! "

The Ice-Armored Scorpion and the Black-Armored Giant Scorpion that had successfully advanced roared towards the sky in excitement, because their beast souls had successfully advanced while being of the same origin. The changes in their appearance were the same as before, except that their bodies had become much larger.

The size of the black-armored giant scorpion and the ice-armored scorpion has increased by two times, reaching an astonishing length of fourteen meters and a height of more than two floors, comparable to a fully-insured Dongfeng Hercules semi-trailer.

There was no change in the skills of the Ice Armor Scorpion after it advanced to the Ice Armor Scorpion General. Instead, the Black Armor Giant Scorpion's royal magic pattern talent gave it two powerful new skills, and even its race changed.

【Silver Scorpion】

[Gender: Male]

[Strength: Young Warrior/Mature Stage]

[Talent: Royal Magic Pattern]

[Abilities: Super-Strong Pincers, Silver-Stripe Heavy Armor, Bloodthirsty Madness, Strong Acid Poison Beam]

[Current status: Evolved from the warrior-level demon - Silver-striped Scorpion to the commander-level demon - Silver-striped Scorpion King (only 10000 natural days are needed), and the remaining time for evolution is natural days (0/10000).]

[Note: This is a top-grade silver-striped demon scorpion that has been fused with the royal demon pattern. It is worth training. This general-level demon has a talent entry slot (1/2)]

The Silver-Striped Scorpion is covered in silver light and looks like a ruthless heavily-armored tank berserker, making it extremely reassuring.

Bai Ye was not in a hurry to add more talent entries. He planned to go to places like the magic market and the beast taming base to look around and see if there were any more suitable talent entries.

After integrating the royal magic patterns, the Silver-veined Scorpion is more inclined to take the route of close combat. The frost bloodline of the Ice-armored Scorpion General is obviously more suitable for the route of spell turrets. Naturally, Bai Ye has to teach them according to their aptitude.

"The head of the family wants me to enroll in Mingzhu Academy again next year, make a splash at the Qing Campus Beast Fighting Competition, and at the same time make a name for the Bai family.

I calculated that there are still about ten months until the Beast Fighting Contest. Before that, it depends on how much the Zerg space and magic skills can be improved. "Bai Ye calculated in his mind.

After going through the outline in his mind, Bai Ye began to focus his energy on space stardust.

His space stardust has already broken through to the primary level 2. In the next six months, he will strive to break through to the intermediate level of space and master the intermediate level 1 magic of space - "Space Rhythm - Compression".

Bai Ye was not in a hurry to make public the fact that the two poisonous insects were successfully promoted to generals. It took only a few hours to cultivate two general-level insect monsters. It might not be a good thing to show off too much, so he had to hide his shortcomings appropriately.

A week later, Bai Ye informed Bai Wanpeng, the patriarch of the Bai family, that he had successfully advanced the two slave insects into small generals. As he lived up to everyone's expectations, he naturally received more resources.
