Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 926 - 390: The Reason for Feifei’s Mutation? Yun Sheng’s Proposal! (Part 2)

"The Pet Beast World is truly wondrous..."

Watching as these two old fellows play with Feifei’s core with mechanical hands, hands marked by thick calluses and burns.

Meanwhile, in Su Ping’s soul contract, Feifei’s cries also resounded:

"Damn, don’t... sob sob sob... Feifei is dirty now! I’m sorry, Ely, Ah Ning, Ailin, Xiao, Bobo..."

Su Ping’s forehead was lined with black streaks.

Just as Su Ping was about to lose his patience, the two finally stopped, and the Mad Saint blinked with his mechanical eyes emitting scarlet beams, saying:

"Su Ping, do you know how your pet beast was born? We suspect it’s very likely related to the current research project at the Mechanical Association."

Su Ping slightly raised his eyebrows: "What project?"

The Mad Saint didn’t answer directly but tantalized him:

"You know the birth of mechanical pet beasts, right? It primarily requires the infusion of electromagnetic information into a special resource called the ’Gold Elemental Core’ to complete awakening!"

Su Ping nodded in agreement.

Gold Elemental Core sounds similar to the Heart of Gold in the Five Elements Core, but in reality, they’re quite different.

In fact, calling it a resource is somewhat tenuous, although some do treat it as such, and indeed it is a Monarch Level metal attribute resource.

However, this thing is more about the birth of its elemental elf.

Moreover, the birth is of an advanced elemental elf.

Compared to lower-level beings like Little Flame’s fire spirit, those born through Gold Elemental Core are higher-level gold elemental elves, with a race limit from Commander Level to Monarch Level.

Upon transforming into a mechanical core, its potential level decreases, but potential can be increased through mechanical body blueprints, even achieving evolution.

This is why the mechanical core’s value is so high, and mechanical pet beasts are considered luxury pet beasts by the new era.

Even the basic mechanical core is like this, and activating a Gold Elemental Core into a mechanical core involves a success rate that, if failed, can lead to great loss.

"The Mechanical Association is always searching for ways to reduce the cost of mechanical core birth, primarily by seeking alternative methods for mechanical core creation. I believe that not only our Dragon Nation, but also Lion Nation and Eagle Country are doing the same.

Even Eagle Country, where mechanical pet beasts are most advanced, may have achieved some breakthroughs in this area."

The Mad Saint continued speaking, openly acknowledging the strength of his adversaries.

Su Ping nodded again.

But he stayed silent, patiently waiting for the discourse.

"According to our speculation, the Gold Elemental Core necessary for mechanical cores, aside from forming innately, can also be cultivated postnatally! This cultivates the grading of the mechanical core!"

"Hm?"

Su Ping frowned: "Mechanical core grading?"

"Exactly, grading is done based on the level of metal resource from which the core is born!"

At this point of the speech, it was quite clear.

The so-called grading of mechanical cores is merely a pretext.

But the main focus is this aspect.

"So, you mean, Feifei’s birth wasn’t a regular mechanical core, but rather likely born from a Gold Elemental Core in a metal of psychic element, transformed through mechanical activation into this form?!"

Su Ping raised his brows.

"Precisely! We’ve always been searching for a Gold Elemental Core naturally born with unique attributes to create distinct mechanical pet beast cores, Su Ping, your pet beast might be from this source!"

Wu Kuang replied.

Su Ping’s brows furrowed.

He remembered his first encounter with Feifei in his ’Black Blood’ sports car, he had asked Feifei.

And at that time, Feifei gave him an ambiguous answer.

Perhaps its metal body was different at birth.

Su Ping couldn’t deny his interest was piqued.

"The Gold Elemental Core itself, born from the veins of metal resources as advanced resources, could it inherently differ?"

"Of course it can." Zhang Lan chimed in:

"For instance, the Monarch Level Wan Ren Water Iron and Monarch Level Monarchic Magneto-Gold, the Gold Elemental Core born from them cannot be the same?

The mechanical core birthed from Wan Ren Water Iron, although metal element, undoubtedly has some water affinity, while Monarchic Magneto-Gold excels more in electromagnetic force.

Also, considering the Commander Level Mystic Rock Steel Vein, the Gold Elemental Core born from this Commander Level is distinct from others."

Monarchic Magneto-Gold?

Su Ping felt a stir in his heart.

"Did the Mechanics Association master a technique to actively incubate Gold Elemental Core from metal resources?"

Upon saying this, both showed slight embarrassment, and Wu Kuang replied helplessly:

"The association has been experimenting in this regard, and I believe the day is not far off.

Zhang Lan just cited the two metals as the most frequently tested and closest to success within the association."

"Oh? May I hear about it?"

"There’s no harm in that. The Gold Elemental Core of Wan Ren Water Iron is due to the Mechanics Association’s possession of a Secret Realm with abundant Wan Ren Water Iron veins, producing many Gold Elemental Cores,

while the activated mechanical core naturally integrates more efficiently with water attribute metal resource materials, being the foundational core best suited for ocean mechanical pet beasts.
