When Li Yi saw the pure white light of evolution pouring out from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bookstore, illuminating half of Redstone Town, a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Then, he stood up from the stone slab of the temple and strode towards the bookstore.

Along the way, other Digimon came one after another from all directions to join him.

Finally, when he stood in the square in front of the bookstore, there were already hundreds of Digimon behind him.

Although about half of them are infant Digi that he and Betamon rescued from the mine, their bodies are not as big as the watermelon he bought in his previous life.

But after the number reached hundreds, they still occupied the boss's space.

But just when they were about to fill the open space in the square in front of the bookstore, the white light of evolution poured out from inside the bookstore and occupied the central position of the square.

Then——

A green data symbolizing the natural soul appears at the center of the light of evolution, forming a new digital core.

Based on the new digital core, the skeleton, flesh, and skin appear one after another, eventually forming a three-meter-tall cactus beast!

The next moment, Cactusmon, whose body was covered with spikes and was wearing a pair of red boxing gloves, and whose style looked completely different from Baloomon's period, slowly opened its eyes.

After opening his eyes, the cactus beast looked around and said:

"Sorry, I made too much noise in my evolution and disturbed everyone!"

Although due to evolution, Cactusmon's voice is no longer as soft as it was during Baloomon's time, and has become duller.

But whether it was Li Yi, Betamon, Bhikkhumon, or other Digimon, they all heard a familiar feeling from this sentence.

Belonging to Balumon, it has a gentle and restrained feeling!

Li Yi felt that the smile on his face was getting brighter.

But just when he looked at the Cactus Beast and was about to say "congratulations" or something like that, suddenly a black thing, like a little thing that had just rolled in coal, poked half of its head out of the glove of the Cactus Beast's right hand! <

/p>

Black ball beast!

After Cactus Beast felt the changes in his hands, he gently pinched the black little guy out of his gloves, then held it with both hands and said warmly:

"Blackballmon, this is Greymon, this is Betamon, this is Bhikkhumon..."

"Now, it's your turn to say hello to everyone!"

Under the guidance of the Cactus Beast, the Black Ball Beast, which was just a few minutes old, shouted angrily towards Li Yi and the others, ‘Hello everyone!’

Li Yi looked at his energetic and lively appearance, and couldn't help but feel fondness in his heart.

Although among the juvenile Digimon rescued from the mines, there is no shortage of popular Digimon like Blackballmon.

But obviously, he is still closer to the black ball beast that broke its shell in Red Rock Town.

But——

Li Yi stretched out his right paw, took the black ball beast from the cactus beast, then closed his eyes and felt it carefully.

A vibration similar to that of the Digimon in the mine, but with a lower amplitude, is spreading outward from this Black Ballmon.

‘As expected, the Digicores of Digimon born after the massive growth of data in the digital world are like this.’

‘Fortunately, compared to Niangaomon and the others, this vibration amplitude is much weaker.’

‘Probably, it will take two to three hundred years of accumulated damage before the digicore will collapse.’

Li Yi said silently in his heart, and then put the black ball beast that was about to climb up his arm back into the palm of the Balu beast.

The black ball beast's face immediately showed a confused and aggrieved expression.

Although he is only an Infant Stage 1 Digimon, his intelligence is already about the same as that of a four-year-old human baby.

He could clearly feel that Li Yi's actions now contained something called 'rejection'.

Li Yi turned his face and tried not to look at the black ball beast.

Different from his pity and sympathy for Niangamon and those young Digimon brought back from the mines, he loves Blackballmon, the first Digimon born in Red Rock Town, from the bottom of his heart.

But it was his love that made him unable to accept the "flaw" of the Black Ball Beast's lifespan of only two to three hundred years.

Because after evolving to a mature stage, the digital core, whose consultation and calculation capabilities have been greatly improved, can tell him clearly, understandably, and without error.

One day, he will witness the death of the black ball beast in front of him.

Moreover, his powerful computing power can even allow him to simulate such a scene in his mind.

An extremely heart-wrenching picture.

So——

‘Since we are destined to be separated, it’s better not to get too familiar with each other.’

Li Yi warned himself silently.

But at this moment, the cautious voice of Black Ball Beast suddenly sounded.

"Greymon, did I do something wrong?"

When Li Yi heard the sound, he felt that his chest was suddenly hit by a hammer, which made him feel stuffy and uncomfortable.

Finally, he sighed helplessly, turned his head again, and said to the black ball beast:

"It wasn't you who did something wrong, it was me who did something wrong!"

When the black ball beast heard Li Yi's words, it suddenly became energetic again.

I don’t care what Li Yi did wrong, I just said openly:

"It doesn't matter, I forgive you!"

Li Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. In the end, he could only shake his head, and then gently tapped the black ball beast with the tip of his claw.

A bit of golden light, representing the energy of courage, poured into the body of the black ball beast along the tips of his claws.

"Thank you for your forgiveness, this is a thank you gift."

"This is also your reward for being the first Digimon to break out of its shell in Red Rock Town."

Following Li Yi's words, golden light turned into special data and poured into the body of the black ball beast.

The warm and pure data flow made the Black Ball Beast's eyes narrow in comfort, like a cat being petted.

Seeing this, Li Yi showed a smile again on his face, raised his head and glanced at the cactus beast who had been watching everything quietly, and said:

"Next, the safety of Redstone Town will be entrusted to you."

The cactus beast nodded seriously and looked at Li Yidao seriously:

"Don't worry."

"As long as I haven't fallen down, I will never let the enemy step into Red Rock Town!"

Li Yi felt relieved after hearing this, but he always felt like he couldn't help but laugh.

Especially when looking at the dark, round eyes that look like two big holes on the body, I can't help but smile.

However, out of politeness, he still did not laugh out loud.

After all, no matter how good-tempered an honest person is, he will still get angry.

Riqi's determination to look down on other people is a very lack of quality in his opinion.

Finally, Li Yi gave Dr. Agumon a wink and waved goodbye.

Under the watchful eyes of Blackballmon, Cactusmon, Betamon, Bhikkhumon and other Digimon, he and Dr. Agumon walked towards the direction of Chita.
