The Ice Rock Bull King was breathing heavily, its blood coagulating on its body under the high temperature.
In front of it, there was a huge deep pit, with lava flowing out of the cracks on the pit walls, gathering into a pool of magma at the bottom. Bubbles occasionally formed and burst, the extreme heat distorting the air around it, casting the surroundings in a dark red hue.
The Thorny Forest behind it had already been shaken apart, and the Ice Rock Snow Bulls were looking at their king with fear.
By this time, the Ice Rock Bull King was at its last gasp, its body covered in various lacerations while Qiuqiu, facing it, remained like a statue, covered in cooled black magma.
Shao Zifeng and others stood at a distance, quietly watching everything that unfolded.
Lingling was still contemplating what kind of line to use.
Crack.
At that moment, the cooled magma cracked, pieces falling from the statue-like Qiuqiu. As the cooled magma faded away, Qiuqiu’s gaze, unscathed, bore into the Bull King with fervor.
“Roar!”
Qiuqiu had won again!
Thump!
The Ice Rock Bull King trembled all over, its knees giving way as it knelt down submissively, lowering its proud head.
Soon after, the herd also kneeled down one by one.
“It’s over!”
Cang Haiyuan popped his head out from behind the vine door.
Everyone slowly walked out, marveling at the surroundings.
The snowy plain, usually covered in snow, now exposed black rocks riddled with cracks, with rolling hot lava.
In that instant, they felt as if they had left Antarctica and were standing in front of an erupting volcano.
“Ying ying~”
Upon seeing Shao Zifeng, the just-powerful and domineering Qiuqiu quickly shrank down and flew towards its egg.
Perching on Shao Zifeng’s shoulder, Qiuqiu pointed with its tiny paw at the kneeling Bull King, mumbling and boasting to him, its small face filled with pride.
“Lord Qiuqiu, truly worthy of being the Duke’s contracted Dragon Rider, besides the Duke and me, you must be the most formidable in our Purple Flower Realm.”
Lingling floated quietly beside Shao Zifeng, her cool voice resonating in everyone’s heart.
“Ying!”
Qiuqiu rapidly nodded its tiny head, the little fool completely oblivious to the fact that Lingling had ranked it third, still blissfully happy.
“Look over there.”
At that moment, Wei Yibo’s exclamation came from ahead, and Shao Zifeng looked up.
Next to the huge deep pit, the large-bodied Ice Rock Bull King was radiating points of light, which gathered above its head like a mist.
After the last wisp of light was drained, the Ice Rock Bull King suddenly let out a mournful cry, its body rapidly shrinking and eventually reverting to a regular Ice Rock Snow Bull.
That energy pulled from its body dispersed and evenly fell upon each Ice Rock Snow Bull, finally vanishing from sight.
Now, the herd seemed to have forgotten its fear, standing there docilely looking at the people, its muscles occasionally twitching, a habitual act to shake off the snow. A few meter-high Snow Calves curiously approached them, their wet noses sniffing at the people.
“Professor, what is this?”
Yang Qi pushed his glasses up, bending down to embrace the large head of a Snow Calf, a look of disbelief on his face.
“This…” Chen Yixin looked rather hesitant, unsure how to explain the phenomenon, as she had never witnessed mutant creatures reverting before.
“In many herd-based mutant creatures on other continents, indeed it’s true that only one king is allowed. But it’s unheard of for a mutant creature to directly revert after being defeated.”
As researchers, they possessed great interest when faced with such unknown phenomena, for if they discovered something before others, it would bring them supreme honor and might even be passed down through the ages.
While the group was continuously discussing, Shao Zifeng looked at the former king of the herd that had returned, his face revealing a contemplative expression.
He vaguely understood what was happening, although the explanation about the Ice Rock Bull King was not very clear in the external attachment, it did mention, “Only after it is defeated will a second bull king emerge in the tribe.”
Before this, he had thought that the emergence of a second king meant another bull would replace it, but now it seemed it was not that simple.
After glancing at Chen Yixin, who had fallen into deep thought, Shao Zifeng stepped forward a few steps.
“You saw that ball of light just now, didn’t you?”
“Light, what light?” Chen Yixin was slightly stunned, obviously not catching on immediately.
“The ball of light that separated out before the Bull King regressed.” Shao Zifeng slowly guided her: “It’s the last light that was evenly distributed to every bull.”
Upon hearing Shao Zifeng’s words, Chen Yixin furrowed her brow and thought carefully.
Chen Yixin, being who she was, quickly grasped the key point, her expression quickly relaxing, “You mean, only after the Bull King is defeated and regresses do all the bulls in the herd get a chance to evolve and thus a new king is born.”
“Hey, I didn’t say anything.”
Chen Yixin gave Shao Zifeng a glance and looked over at the Ice Rock Snow Bull herd, feeling more and more that this was possible, and couldn’t help saying, “What a magical species, I really wonder what their original form is; we’ve never seen anything like it.”
“Maybe they’re not from Earth.” Shao Zifeng muttered softly.
“What did you say?”
Attracted by their conversation, several people gathered around.
“Professor, if every single one has the hope of becoming a king, what kind of method do you think they will adopt to evolve?” Wei Yibo asked curiously.
“Perhaps through battles, after all, it’s how these types of communal creatures usually select their king.”
At that moment, Cang Haiyuan sauntered over, holding his chin with a serious expression, “Professor, I have a question.”
“Go ahead.”
“You mentioned they are gentle by nature, would they fight for the chance to evolve?”
Wang Hongcai finally found a chance to speak; he looked at Cang Haiyuan somewhat disdainfully, “Being gentle doesn’t mean they won’t struggle, especially these herd-based species, they fight viciously for mating rights.”
“Oh.” Cang Haiyuan looked annoyed and glanced at him, “Who asked you?”
“You…”
“What about me, wasn’t someone previously adamant that there were no creatures here?”
“I!” Wang Hongcai’s face turned red with anger.
“What about me, stop pretending with me.”
“Psh! Nonsense.”
Wang Hongcai, who usually stayed in the laboratory, couldn’t outtalk him, his face red, his hand pointing at Cang Haiyuan was shaking.
Seeing this, Yang Qi quickly tried to smooth things over, “Alright, alright, we’re all teammates, no need to fight. Hongcai, put your hand down… Old Cang, you also tone it down.”
“Spare me.”
Cang Haiyuan snorted and turned away, pulling out a cigarette and sniffing it beneath his nose.
“Right, Professor.” Yang Qi, worried the two might clash again, quickly spoke, “Since this type of bull is a new species, as the discoverers, do we have the naming rights?”
Yang Qi’s words made everyone show an eager expression, for naming a newly discovered mutant creature was an honor indeed.
Chen Yixin nodded and turned to Shao Zifeng, “Zifeng, what do you think we should call it?”
“Ah.” Shao Zifeng, who was secretly giving Cang Haiyuan a thumbs up, blurted out, “Ice Rock Snow Bull.”
“Alright, that’s what we’ll call it!” Chen Yixin decided.
