This time, David Jones did not make a special pick. He scanned the surroundings and randomly picked a jade box to open, revealing an ancient, worn-out book in front of him.

“Even though it's old, it isn't valuable as an antiquity.”

Looking at this historical book with its yellowing cover, missing numerous pages, and leaving only a few left, David Jones shook his head helplessly.

In Blue Star, Trainers choose to pass valuable knowledge and secrets to the next generation through Heritage Stone, not recorded in books.

After all, knowledge recorded in books is easily lost or forgotten in history, while the durable, weather-resistant Heritage Stone can keep the information intact under the erosion of time unless intentionally destroyed by external forces.

Therefore, common people or low-rank Trainers usually record essential knowledge in books.

However, the fact that this ancient book was kept in a jade box indicates its original owner highly valued it.

To avoid missing something beneficial due to carelessness, David Jones scrutinized the ancient book several times, even though he didn't think there was anything peculiar about it.

“As expected, I can't understand it!”

David Jones sighed in frustration as he read the complex and obscure ancient texts in the book.

Although he was well-learned and had extensive exposure to pharmacy and pet training, this ancient text that he couldn't grasp its specific meanings still puzzled him.

“These ancient texts have many strokes, delicate lines, and the characters have numerous turns. They should be from the time after the Neolithic Period and before the Star Calendar,” theorized David Jones.

After carefully examining it, David Jones's intuition told him this book concealed numerous secrets.

However, it is regrettable that he would be completely illiterate in that Savage Era and could not understand the meanings of the book at all.

“Let it be, next.” After contemplating fruitlessly, David Jones turned his attention to another jade box.

After all, we are now in the digital age. Unless the characters recorded in the ancient books were a particularly obscure language, he had many ways to figure out the meaning of this book.

“Why is there another book!” He scratched his head as he opened the next jade box.

However, unlike the last dilapidated ancient book, this jade box revealed a stack of fresh documents, and the text written on them was in Easthua language that he could understand.

[New Experiment 0023 (Report on the Feasibility of the Ice-FireDragon Experiment)]

Project Leader: Senior Researcher Daisy Keynes.

The moment he saw the signature at the end of the research report, David Jones's pupils shrank.

“The King Level Trainer ambushing me turned out to be a senior researcher!”

It is known that Trainers who can become researchers are generally scholarly and hold vast knowledge of Beast evolution practices.

This enables them to find a most stable and cost-effective evolutionary route amidst the infinite progression possibilities of the Beasts.

Therefore, Trainers that can become researchers generally come from affluent backgrounds; otherwise, they could not afford the significant resources required when conducting Beast-evolution experiments.

Becoming a regular researcher for Trainers is already arduous, let alone a senior one!

Every senior researcher must meet at least one criterion: discover a secure, stable evolutionary path for a King species.

Thinking of this, David Jones gulped in bewilderment.

No kidding!

Even a senior researcher wanted Rainbow's Flood Dragon Essence so much that she risked breaking the Trainer Guild's ban to ambush a beast taming genius. This means that the Flood Dragon Essence must have precious uses he was unaware of.

David Jones burned Daisy Keynes's name into his memory, considering whether to report her or not after finding out about her background when he left the Mesona Space.

So what if Daisy Keynes is a senior researcher and a King Level Trainer?

This brutal act of murder violating the Trainer Guild's ban. To protect myself, I killed her. After all, I have a reliable backing from my teachers, I am not afraid.

The only issue is how to explain how a newbie Trainer like himself managed to kill a King Level Expert during a sneak attack!

Thinking of this, David Jones sighed in vexation.

If because of this Lolo's existence were exposed, it might remind the interested parties of the legendary dragon egg. He wouldn't be able to stand against the pressure from legendary figures at that time.

After weighing the pros and cons, David Jones decided to next step on whether or not to report her after he confirmed Daisy Keynes's affiliations.

Then, a gleam of light flashed through his fingers, and he put the Ice-FireDragon experiment report into his Star Ring.

Next, David Jones had a faint guess about the items in the remaining five jade boxes.

Sure enough, the treasures in these jade boxes were primarily high-grade pet resources needed for the Ice-FireDragon Experiment.

[Heart of the Wave Whale]: a Level VII aquatic resource, the energy core of the Seventh-Order Tyrant, the Wave Whale, can be used as the primary material for the evolution of aquatic pets or Ice-FireDragon evolution.

[Hengyang Red Crystal]: a Level VII fire resource, a precious crystal formed by absorbing the essence of Hengyang. It contains an incredibly pure Fire Arcane Force. After absorption, it can significantly increase the strength of fire pets and can also serve as an evolution material for Fire Tyrants.

[Moon Star Spine]: a Level VII ice resource, a high-level resource of the Cold Essence. After absorption and refining, the probability of ice pets advancing to Tyrants can be increased by 10%. It can also be used as an evolution material for Ice Tyrants.

[Cold Flower]: a level VI resource for Ice and Fire types. After pets refine it, they have a certain chance to gain ice or fire attributes. Also, it can serve as an evolution material for Ice and Fire type pets.

[Earth Barrier]: a middle-tier Arcane Implement for Rock species, it can produce a guard that can withstand a full blow of a Sixth Stage Middle Rank when attacked. However, the defensive guard can only be triggered once within a day automatically. And the holder could also actively input Arcane Force to form a varied defensive guard depending on the strength of the Arcane Force.

Having completed viewing the detailed information of these treasures with the Identifying Spirit Eye, excitement and jubilation were apparent on David Jones's face.

This senior researcher's wealth was even more substantial than he imagined. There were four Level VII Tyrant pet resources alone, more than the number of level VI resources!

Other than the heart of the Wave Whale, which David Jones didn't know how to use, the rest of the high-grade pet resources matched perfectly with Rainbow and Daphne's attributes.

The most regrettable part for David Jones was that there was no Level VII wood resource among the jade boxes. The only resource that could be remotely associated with the Dragon species, the Solar Seed, wasn't compatible with Lolo from the Wood species, at all.

This won't do!

After all, his lucky escape was possible solely due to Lolo's help.

Glancing at Lolo, who was beside him, grinning foolishly at the pet resources, David Jones was suddenly filled with a happy dilemma.

“How should I reward Lolo?”
