74: Evolve the Dark Hunter! (Part 2)

Time came to Wednesday night, at which point Lin Shu had already received all the evolution Materials.

He began preparing for the evolution of Dark Veil Hunter, as it had some environmental requirements.

It had to be conducted in an extremely dark environment.

Fortunately, Meihu Island provided such a place, which saved a lot of trouble.

Because of the environmental requirements, the scheduled time was at night, so the daytime could not be wasted; he repeated the daily routine of the past two days.

In these two days, Lin Shu incidentally leveled up Dark Veil Hunter by two more levels, reaching Rank 27.

He also increased his Mental Energy to 300 points, reaching the Second Rank; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to bear the aftermath of Dark Veil Hunter's evolution.

He had 215 proficiency points remaining.

The higher the Rank, the higher the success probability of the evolution naturally becomes, making it easier to cope with the energy backlash caused by the evolution.

It reduces the occurrence of some accidents.

At this moment, Lin Shu and Wu Song had arrived at the evolution venue dedicated to pet beasts inside Meihu Island.

This place used modern equipment and machines to simulate scenes like sunrise, night, and rainy days, which could well assist the evolution of pet beasts and provide some convenience.

Entering the interior of a building similar to a large electronics factory, the space inside was very large and appeared somewhat empty.

There were 28 different types of venues inside, capable of handling various evolution environments; it could be considered quite complete.

The price, naturally, would not be cheap; the venue Lin Shu booked today cost a full 300,000 per hour.

And this was still a mid-to-low level price.

This money was naturally advanced by Brother Wu.

Walking in the smooth and flat corridor, they arrived at the entrance of the venue simulating a dark environment.

Opening the venue, the originally pitch-black venue became instantly clearly visible.

What came into view was a venue about the size of a basketball court, with dozens of crisscrossing mechanical arms ready above.

Inside, there was also a black rhombic crystal the size of a palm; presumably, this was the core of this dark venue.

After taking a few casual glances, Lin Shu took out the five items needed for Dark Veil Hunter's evolution from his space ring.

He began a simple setup.

Dark Veil Hunter was waiting expectantly on the side, its two antennae twisting excitedly, walking and circling around, clearly extremely looking forward to the upcoming evolution.

Wu Song brought a stool, his eyes filled with a hint of expectation; this Hall Master's evolution method really had high requirements.

It was almost as difficult as the evolution of his own Double-Bladed Mantis to the Lord quality; it was truly exaggerated.

However, why it would require space-attribute evolution Materials left him a bit puzzled.

But thinking of the combat performance of the Hall Master's pet beast, he felt it was reasonable again.

As for other evolution methods, he hadn't even thought about such a possibility.

These evolution paths weren't cabbages that you could just pick up from the ground whenever you wanted.

The Double-Bladed Mantis lay on the ground, half-closing its eyes as it watched Lin Shu preparing in front.

Incidentally, it glanced at Dark Veil Hunter; it always had a premonition that this guy's evolution wouldn't be that simple.

A few minutes later, Lin Shu had also finished the setup.

The Fifth-Rank mantis-type skeleton was placed in the center of the venue, and then he used the Fifth-Rank spiritual item, Extreme Dark Sand, to form a triangle around the outer perimeter of the skeleton, with the distance neither too close nor too far.

Although it was just a skeleton, it was complete after all, and it was Fifth-Rank, with a size not small, occupying a full two meters.

Lin Shu still spent quite a bit of effort to move it over.

Fortunately, there was quite a lot of Extreme Dark Sand, otherwise it would be embarrassing if he couldn't surround it.

Immediately, he began to place the other three Materials.

The two corners at the bottom were placed with the 5th-Rank spiritual items, Dark Source Soul Crystal and Void Gazer Stone, respectively; these two positions didn't have any specific requirements, they could be placed however.

Finally, the tip of the triangle was placed with the most important Material, Void Origin Spirit Stone.

After this, the final preparation ceremony was completed.

Wu Song looked at this final formed ceremony with curiosity, apparently seeing this kind of scene for the first time.

However, he didn't say anything, intending to ask together after it was over.

Lin Shu also sent the news of his pet beast's evolution to his mentor, but unfortunately, the other party hadn't replied yet.

Wu Song took a photo and sent it over; after doing all this, he placed it outside along with Lin Shu's phone, which was also to avoid some accidents.

Everything was ready, and Lin Shu called the excited Dark Veil Hunter over.

He urged it, saying: "In a moment, you will lie under that bone, don't move around."

"Subsequently, the dark and space energy will all condense in your body, it might be a bit painful."

"But you must hold on, you cannot give up."

Dark Veil Hunter patted its chest with its forelimbs, indicating that it could definitely do it, "Rest assured!"

Seeing this, Lin Shu didn't say much and let Dark Veil Hunter go into the triangular ceremony.

Dark Veil Hunter carefully entered the circle and slowly lay flat under the skeleton, afraid that if it was careless, it would affect the entire evolution process.

Seeing this posture of Dark Veil Hunter, it was clear that it attached great importance to this evolution, so Lin Shu was completely relieved.

"Brother Wu, it's ready, you can start the machine."

Wu Song, who was sitting next to the switch, stood up and pressed the red button without hesitation.

In just an instant, the originally bright venue became as dark as night, and endless darkness filled the field of vision.

The venue was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard, full of emptiness and darkness.

Lin Shu squatted halfway on the spot, staring nervously at the middle position, although he couldn't see anything now.

A moment later, the originally motionless triangular ceremony seemed to have a chemical reaction.

Strands of silver-white light points radiated from the Void Origin Spirit Stone at the tip, causing new light points to appear in the originally pitch-black venue.

The silver-white light points turned into a light ball the size of an egg, starting to wander within the triangle.

It was like a paintbrush, completely connecting the three corners.

A complete triangle flashing with silver-white light was outlined.

The Materials or spiritual items above the three corners all began to release the energy inside them.

The Extreme Dark Sand and Dark Source Soul Crystal were not to be outdone, and patches of black light dispersed like smoke.

Gradually, they intersected with the silver-white light points and slowly fused together, forming a long silver-black energy beam.

It immediately reached the skeleton above Dark Veil Hunter, directly surrounding both of them, forming a sphere filled with black and white light points.

The tyrannical energy began to inject into Dark Veil Hunter's body, and the two types of energy were still confronting each other inside, giving it a feeling of being sliced by a thousand knives.

The violent and uncontrollable energy rammed recklessly, and the piercing pain made Dark Veil Hunter unable to resist.

Its body was shrouded in black fog and silver-white light, its triangular head twisted together; clearly, the speed of energy influx was still accelerating at this moment.

"Roar!"

A heart-wrenching, painful long roar echoed through the venue.

Lin Shu clenched his fists; this was the most critical moment of the evolution.

Dark Veil Hunter, you must hold on!

Wu Song and the Double-Bladed Mantis were also startled when they saw such a commotion.

What's going on?

Why is your evolution process so thrilling!

Hearing such painful sounds, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat, hoping nothing would go wrong.

Immediately, he looked at the black and white sphere with worry.

The Double-Bladed Mantis felt a bit empathetic; it crossed its arms, closed its eyes slightly, and began to pray for Dark Veil Hunter.

Agonizing screams appeared one after another, and because it was too weak, the roaring sound became increasingly smaller.

At this moment, Dark Veil Hunter was already tottering, but it still gritted its teeth and struggled to support itself.

Besides its tenacious will, what allowed it to persist until now was the belief that it wanted to become stronger to protect its master!

Therefore, it would definitely persist until the evolution was successful.
