Chapter 221 Finalized
The official shelter had previously called the source beasts "exotic beasts".
Lin Shi's heart skipped a beat, he just spoke too quickly.
He blinked twice calmly:
"Why? Since they are all beasts that have evolved through source power, wouldn't it be more appropriate to call them source beasts? I usually call them source beasts."
Unexpectedly, he attracted the approval of a researcher as soon as he finished speaking:
"You think so too? We have long wanted to change the name of the exotic beasts to source beasts!"
Even Li Xianke looked at Lin Shi in surprise.
The name of the exotic beast began to spread among the survivors.
The source beasts appeared because they absorbed the source power. As rigorous scientific researchers, they had long wanted to change the name of the exotic beasts to source beasts.
However, the term "exotic beast" has now been widely circulated, not only in Shashi, but also in other cities with survivors.
The people from the Research Institute wanted to correct it again, but Lin Tianrui and others said it was just a name and did not take it seriously, so they kept delaying the correction of the name.
Lin Shi's name of the source beast brought him closer to the researchers.
After Lin Shi understood what happened, he laughed and felt relieved.
"Actually, it's good to call it the source beast. It's more appropriate."
"Chief Lin, did you hear that? I hope you can quickly popularize this name."
A researcher said with some dissatisfaction.
With this tone, people who don't know would think that this researcher is Lin Tianrui's boss.
Lin Tianrui couldn't say anything yet, so he could only smile bitterly and nod:
"I know."
Then everyone put the materials brought by Lin Shi on the machine for testing one by one.
The first few were fine. Although they were all source materials of the third-level source beast, after being shocked once, everyone was just amazed at four consecutive third-level source materials.
Until Li Xianke put the tiger tail taken from the fourth-level saber-toothed tiger into the test machine.
As the numbers on the display jumped until they stopped.
The moment the data appeared on it, it seemed as if the laboratory had pressed the pause button.
All the researchers in this laboratory fell silent.
"5150"
More than 3000 points, which means that the owner of this source material is a fourth-level source beast.
The only fourth-level source beast that has appeared in Shashi is the beast king that appeared in the last terrible beast tide.
A saber-toothed tiger with traces of atavism, extremely valuable for research!
Just three seconds later, all the researchers in the laboratory began to breathe heavily.
"Fourth level!! Am I dazzled!"
"Is it the beast king?!"
"Beast king? The beast king I dream of studying? Am I still asleep? Let me pinch it!"
...
Li Xianke, who is old, ran to Lin Shi without caring about his image, grabbed Lin Shi's arm and shook it hard:
"Is it that beast king? Is this the source material from that beast king?"
Everyone except Lin Tianrui seemed to want to burn Lin Shi with scorching eyes.
Lin Tianrui also looked at Lin Shi in surprise.
After Wang Chao came back to report the situation last time, Lin Tianrui had guessed that Lin Shi would not have solved the saber-toothed tiger.
Because when they later cleaned up the remaining source beasts, they did not find any trace of the saber-toothed tiger.
But guesses are always guesses, and it is also possible that the saber-toothed tiger escaped back to the mountains.
Now that he saw the fourth-level source material, Lin Tianrui was sure that Lin Shi had killed the saber-toothed tiger.
Otherwise, how could there be fourth-level source materials?
Facing so many burning eyes, Lin Shi's eyes did not change at all, but he pulled out the arm that was grabbed by Li Xianke and said:
"Which beast king are you talking about? I killed more than one fourth-level source beast."
Lin Shi certainly knew that bringing the source materials produced from the saber-toothed tiger to make source devices would expose the fact that he killed the saber-toothed tiger.
He killed the saber-toothed tiger, which did not harm the interests of the official. After all, he eliminated the troubles they could not solve, and the official had to thank him.
The only people whose interests were harmed by him were Qi Yun and his people.
Therefore, he had to guard against Qi Yun looking for trouble with him. So he was not unprepared.
Before coming, Lin Shi had already processed the materials from another set of saber-toothed tigers, making the other pair of fangs different from this pair in shape and weight.
This time, in order to create a source device, Lin Shi spent a lot of money.
"What? You still have it?!"
Li Xianke didn't have as many twists and turns as Lin Shi, and he believed it immediately after hearing it.
It was also thanks to Lin Shi's accidental creation of the name of Li No. 2 that everyone in the official shelter knew it.
Li Xianke didn't doubt him, and looked at Lin Shi with enthusiasm:
"Can you let me see it!"
"I didn't bring it with me when I went out today. I can show it to Dean Li when I have a chance."
Lin Shi was calm when he said panic.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Li Xianke said three "good"s with a face full of excitement, like a child in his 50s or 60s.
"Don't worry, Li, I will personally supervise the casting of the source device this time, and I guarantee it will be done beautifully!"
Li Xianke was so happy that he had already thrown away his previous little resentment towards Lin Shi.
Lin Shi also showed joy in his eyes. It couldn't be better to have the dean personally take action. Seeing this, he did not hesitate to say good things:
"Then I'll trouble Dean Li. You are a very nice person."
"Hahaha! No trouble, no trouble!"
Both parties were happy.
Li Xianke immediately called the scientific researchers responsible for casting the source device and discussed the best casting plan.
It took nearly three hours to finalize the source materials needed to cast the source version of the wheel axe.
They are the fangs and tail of a saber-toothed tiger, and the teeth of a third-level giant lion.
For other auxiliary materials, Lin Shi proposed to use the best,
and listed a list of metals and auxiliary materials.
It is estimated that it will cost more than two million contribution points.
Although it is expensive, the resources in the end of the world are precious.
Moreover, Lin Shi chose some metals that were very expensive and rare before the end of the world.
At present, it is preliminarily estimated that the casting process will last for more than a week, and the electricity consumed is a huge number.
The energy consumption and labor costs in the later stage are not a small amount.
Except for Lin Shi, no one in the shelter can afford this price now.
Not even Lin Tianrui.
Lin Tianrui is the leader of the shelter, but this does not mean that he can use the materials in the shelter at will.
The mobilization of large amounts of materials needs to be discussed and voted by all senior executives to confirm that they have corresponding use value.
Others couldn't do it any more. With more than two million contribution points, it would take an unknown amount of time just to hunt source beasts.
After confirming the casting plan and casting time with Li Xianke and others, Lin Shicai and Lin Tianrui left the research institute.
When the two returned to the ground, the sky had already darkened.
Lin Tianrui immediately said:
"Brother Li, it's getting late. Come with me to eat, so that I can show my hospitality."
Lin Shi was about to refuse, but suddenly remembered that he didn't bring any food when he came. If he gave people the impression that he didn't need to eat or drink, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
Thinking about the appetite of himself and the Demon King now, Lin Shi said:
"My battle pet and I may be able to eat more."
