Chapter 159: Secrets of Time Travel Exposed? _2
The increase in the Bond Improvement Co-operation Index was very slow, almost imperceptible.
Therefore, it couldn't be that he had just begun the nurturing and felt an improvement in the bond.
Lin Su planned to try it for a few days before ending the nurturing before the finals of the preliminaries, to see if the Bond Improvement Co-operation Index could increase by one point over those three or four days.
During these days, for Qiuqiu, the greatest regret was probably not being able to challenge the Beast Taming Towers.
After completing the nurturing, Lin Su exchanged several Bond Improvement Co-operation training methods that might be more suitable for him, based on Qin Nan's suggestion.
Then, Qin Nan's laboratory welcomed a travel-worn elderly man.
Looking at the dignified, pale-faced, white-haired elder, Lin Su suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open.
Good heavens...
What was it like seeing that someone who used to be in textbooks stand alive before him?
Lin Su was experiencing it right now.
"Chief Researcher Qin?!" Lin Su couldn't help but exclaim, then turned to look at Qin Nan with an incredulous gaze, who was smiling nonchalantly.
Is Nan sister the granddaughter of Qin Yunzhang?!
Even though both their last names were Qin, Lin Su had never thought in that direction.
"It sounds weird to call me that; just call me Grandfather Qin," Qin Yunzhang chuckled, grabbing Lin Su's hand candidly and said, "Lin Su, right? I've heard about you. I heard from Nan that your Guardian Beast Co-operation is quite special, could you show me?"
"Grandfather... he just finished nurturing..." Qin Nan interrupted, her expression turning weird.
When she was teaching Lin Su to nurture, she completely forgot that her grandfather might come to observe Lin Su's Guardian Beast Co-operation.
"Hmm..." Qin Yunzhang fell into thought.
"It's okay, I'll just finish up now," Lin Su said, smiling slightly after receiving feedback from Qiuqiu, "It just started not long ago. I can continue after the demonstration; it would be just right to try and end the nurturing."
"That would be troubling," Qin Yunzhang adjusted his glasses, his face revealing a look of anticipation.
Lin Su thought for a moment and ended the nurturing in a similar way to disengaging the co-operation, while also re-summoning Qiuqiu.
"Meow, meow? (。✪ω✪。)" (Hey buddy, what does nurturing feel like?)
As soon as Qiuqiu appeared, Qiuqiu curiously approached to ask.
"Hee... ( ̄‿ ̄)" (It's somewhat like...)
Qiuqiu muttered softly, sharing its recent nurturing experiences with Qiuqiu.
While the two pets whispered among themselves, Qin Yunzhang's gaze immediately turned to the newly appeared Qiuqiu.
His expression held a trace of bemusement, "Has your Trickster Clown... evolved?"
"Yes, it's been a while since he evolved," Lin Su scratched his head.
"Hmm... Once your Beast Taming Space issue is settled, let's discuss the evolution of the Trickster Clown," Qin Yunzhang chuckled, "Just right, I'll see how to evolve the Trickster Clown I have in my research institute."
What?!
Lin Su blinked rapidly, quickly realizing something, "The second Trickster Clown, is it with you?"
"That's right," Qin Yunzhang's eyes flashed slyly; he also knew that Lin Su, as the owner of the first Trickster Clown, had intentionally concealed the data, "That Trickster Clown was induced through special research methods of mine. According to my estimates, it's possible that the Trickster Clown species has not yet been widely born."
Lin Su: "..."
So if it weren't for Qin Yunzhang's special inducing method, the Trickster Clown species might have taken a long time to emerge?
In that case, wouldn't he not have been suspected of almost losing his qualification?
"Alright, let's not discuss this for now; the most important thing is your Beast Taming Space issue," Qin Yunzhang cleared his throat and quickly brought the conversation back, "Is it convenient to demonstrate the Guardian Beast Co-operation now?"
"Of course, no problem," Lin Su quickly nodded.
The suspicion was, after all, due to his own violation of academic integrity by hiding the data; he couldn't blame Qin Yunzhang for it.
And in front of this great figure, who was a hero of the Yanhuang Alliance, Lin Su greatly admired him and naturally cooperated fully.
He glanced at Qiuqiu beside him, casually picked it up, and allowed Qin Yunzhang to first test the pet's base energy level.
"Very well bred indeed!" After looking at Qiuqiu's data, Qin Yunzhang exclaimed with a hint of surprise, then his eyes sparkled with anticipation, "Okay, let's begin now!"
Lin Su nodded, quickly activated the Synchronization Jewel.
After a burst of goose-yellow Cooperation Light, he and Qiuqiu once again entered the co-operation state.
Watching the data feedback from the testing device, Qin Yunzhang instantly fell silent.
With his authority, there was nothing within the Yanhuang Alliance he couldn't access or inquire about.
On his way here, he had already reviewed the results of Lin Su's Ghost Energy Synchronization Rate several times.
Therefore, during the young man's Guardian Beast Co-operation process, the increase index indeed had anomalies.
"During the process of Guardian Beast Co-operation, did you experience any discomfort, like feeling very weak in the Beast Taming Space?" Qin Yunzhang couldn't help but inquire.
"No discomfort whatsoever," Lin Su shook his head, then added, "I've already trained in the Guardian Beast Co-operation state all morning today."
Qin Yunzhang stroked his goatee, paced back and forth in the laboratory, and after a moment, his eyes suddenly brightened with a brilliant insight.
"I've thought of a possibility!"
