Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1190: alarm

Aside from Ya Bao and Ting Bao, Qiao Sang, Mi Jiala, and Little Qunbao all had somewhat solemn expressions.

Even Dragon King was uncharacteristically serious.

There were still three days until the fire meteor was set to fall… Qiao Sang’s mood was heavy.

Mi Jiala coughed beside her.

“Penpen.”

Pen Jiami translated the previous conversation.

Seeing that it was indeed as she had thought, Mi Jiala’s mood grew even heavier.

In the face of such a natural disaster, even as an S-Class Beast Master, she was powerless to change anything.

As time passed, even though it was evening, the sun overhead showed no signs of setting; instead, it grew hotter and more intense.

Menzhou.

The scorching sun hung overhead.

Everyone and their Pets sighed as they looked at the sun above them.

“It’s already 9:30 PM, and the sun is still so strong. Are people even allowed to live anymore?”

“I feel like the days are getting longer and longer. Let’s just abolish the concept of night.”

“Do you feel like the weather has gotten a lot hotter?”

“Hasn’t it always been this hot?”

“Oh my god, I strongly demand that all upcoming matches be held indoors. If they’re outdoors, I’ll die of heat just watching the game. I even bought tickets for the evening, but it’s no different from the morning.”

On the street, a simply dressed woman held a parasol and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

A stylishly dressed girl next to her handed over a cold ice ball, saying:

“Mom, why don’t you keep this?”

“What do I need this for?” the woman chided. “I bought this especially for you. Keep it safe and take it to college. Zhengzhou is much hotter than here.”

Upon hearing this, the girl immediately withdrew her outstretched hand and asked with a grin:

“How much did this cost? I’ll buy one for you too when I have money.”

“I don’t need you to buy me one,” the woman said. “Your living expenses now not only support you but also your Fire-Eyed Vulture. Where would you have extra money?”

“I’m a Yu Beast Master now. I can go out and do part-time jobs with the Fire-Eyed Vulture,” the girl said dismissively.

The woman was about to say something when suddenly, a sharp, piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire city.

People and Pets walking on the street stopped and looked around.

In tall buildings, bungalows, shops, and malls, many people and Pets also stopped and looked out the windows.

A clamor arose from every corner of the city.

“You scared me! What’s going on?”

“I don’t know.”

“Is it an alarm? Or a fire alarm? It doesn’t sound like either.”

“I remember this should be the sound of a disaster alarm.”

“Disaster alarm? What happened?”

As the alarm continued to blare, everyone and their Pets instinctively felt panic, confusion, and fear.

After an unknown period, the alarm stopped, and a mature, steady voice, as if amplified, resonated throughout every corner of Menzhou from high in the sky:

“Everyone, please evacuate Menzhou in an orderly manner within two days. Everyone, please evacuate Menzhou in an orderly manner within two days. It is predicted that fire meteors will fall in three days. Do not panic. Please bring essential items and evacuate in an orderly manner.”

“Staff who can perform coordinate transfers will provide free transfers 24 hours a day. Please do not panic and evacuate in an orderly manner.”

Immediately after, a steady Pet voice sounded:

“Fangfang.”

“Fangfang.”

“Fang…”

Before it could finish speaking, everyone and their Pets had already frantically scattered in all directions, rushing home to pack their belongings.

“Damn it! Why are the fire meteors here?!”

“Ahhh! I just paid off my mortgage a few days ago!”

“Forget the house! Hurry home, grab your things, and leave! What’s more important, the house or human lives?”

“Mumu!” The young Pet didn’t know what was happening and looked at the people and Pets rapidly leaving around it, very flustered.

“Don’t be afraid. I’ll take you to safety.” The young man beside it waved his hand, recalling the panicked Pet into his yu beast codex.

After doing all this, his hand trembled slightly, and then he dashed away at the fastest speed of his life.

Hotel.

By the huge French window.

The woman with waist-length black hair frowned as she watched the commotion outside, then turned and decisively said:

“Meimei, pack your things. Dragon King, stop practicing. Get ready. We’re leaving here.”

“Penpen.”

“Momo.”

Zhengzhou.

Fire Spirit Ore Vein.

Mi Jiala looked at the sky and said in a deep voice:

“The sun is getting bigger and bigger.”

Qiao Sang looked up and found that it was indeed true.

If she hadn’t paid attention before, she might not have noticed, but she had just looked a short while ago and could clearly feel the change in the sun’s size.

Li Ou Yas looked up at the sky with a serious expression, then suddenly, its body slowly grew larger.

It is said that a divine Pet’s body can cover the sky, but Li Ou Yas didn’t grow to that extent; it stopped at a size of about thirty meters.

“Li Li.”

Then, it gently patted the ground with its paw, and the entire wasteland instantly developed huge cracks.

The incredibly solid ground suddenly exploded, and countless fire spirit crystals soared into the sky.

A terrifying high temperature suddenly dropped, and all the fire spirit crystals instantly melted, turning into countless fire crystals that surged towards Li Ou Yas’s direction.

Li Ou Yas stood firm, and countless fire crystals all poured into its body.

Ya Bao, with a swollen belly, burped and stared blankly at the scene before it.

“Gulp~”

Just as Ya Bao let out another burp, Li Ou Yas looked over.

Then, a stream-like flow of fire crystals separated and surged rapidly towards Ya Bao, quickly merging into its body.

“Ya Ya!”

Firelight flared brightly around Ya Bao.

This… Qiao Sang hissed, feeling a vague sense of foreboding in her heart, and urgently said:

“Didn’t you say the fire meteors would only fall in three days?”

Mi Jiala was silent for a moment, then said with a solemn expression:

“The fire meteors are in three days, but that doesn’t mean the sun’s explosion is also in three days.”

Qiao Sang’s heart suddenly clenched, and she looked up at the sky.

The sun overhead emitted a dazzling halo. Aside from being a bit bigger and hotter, it didn’t look particularly different from usual.

Is it, is it going to explode now?!

“Li Li.”

As thoughts flickered, Li Ou Yas suddenly turned and called out to the colorful flower bud Xia La La.

The next second, it looked at the sky with a serious expression, pushed off with its four limbs, and transformed into a fiery light, shooting straight into the sky.

“Xia Xia!”

The colorful flower bud Xia La La reacted, cried out anxiously, and followed closely behind.

However, before it could even reach a height of a hundred meters, a red barrier suddenly descended, blocking its path.

The dazzling halo expanded, engulfing the fiery light emanating from Li Ou Yas.

“Xia Xia!”

Xia La La let out a mournful roar.

Li Ou Yas… Qiao Sang looked at the scene before her and felt a heart-wrenching sorrow.

At the same time, no one noticed that the Everstone on Ya Bao’s paw lit up with a white glow. (End of Chapter)
