Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 153: Hypnosis
Qiao Sang handed over the crystal in her hand.
She didn’t think much of it, simply feeling that the Ghost Absorption Lamp had worked too hard to pick it up and she was just helping out.
She recognized this crystal; it was called nether yang crystal, and the energy contained within it could achieve an effect similar to absorbing life energy.
It wasn’t something taught in school, but rather from a very popular movie she had seen before.
In it, the Ghost-type Pet Suck-Suck Ghost Baby was a major villain, specializing in absorbing human life energy, and the protagonist relied on the nether yang crystal to escape death three times, which left a deep impression on her.
The Ghost Absorption Lamp had lost its wick, and theoretically, it shouldn’t have been able to sustain itself for long outside, but seeing the nether yang crystal, Qiao Sang had no more doubts.
Although she wasn’t sure where the Ghost Absorption Lamp got it from, the nether yang crystal was indeed a tonic for the Ghost Absorption Lamp that had lost its wick.
The Ghost Absorption Lamp looked at the nether yang crystal in front of it and paused, the violently shaking flame inside its lampshade subsided, becoming even smaller than the initial weak flame.
It wanted to raise its arms but found that it had no strength.
The Ghost Absorption Lamp tried to look up but found its head couldn’t move either, so it could only look up at the human in front of it with its eyes.
“Ghost Absorption.”
Qiao Sang was slightly startled and placed the nether yang crystal from her hand into its mouth.
She didn’t understand what the Ghost Absorption Lamp was saying, but she sensitively detected what it was trying to express.
“Qunbao~”
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost floated over at this moment.
Seeing that the Ghost Absorption Lamp hadn’t attacked her Yu Beast Master, it floated beside it and sniffed curiously with its nose.
The death aura is so heavy, even more severe than the human lying upstairs…
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost suddenly felt hungry and skillfully took off its ring, pulled out some milk, and started drinking it.
After swallowing the nether yang crystal, the Ghost Absorption Lamp wanted to leave, but found that it still couldn’t move; there was nothing for it to do but lie motionless on the ground.
“You’re the Pet of the Old Lady from apartment 702 upstairs, aren’t you?” Seeing that the Ghost Absorption Lamp couldn’t move, Qiao Sang initiated a conversation.
Although she had found the Ghost Absorption Lamp, it was the middle of the night, and considering the Old Lady’s advanced age and reliance on the wick to sustain her, Qiao Sang decided to wait until the Old Lady woke up in the morning to find her.
Anyway, the Ghost Absorption Lamp was so weak right now, and with her Ya Bao and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, she wasn’t afraid of it running away.
If she could persuade it to return willingly with words, that would be even better; in its current state, she was afraid that one more fight would cause it to fall apart.
The Ghost Absorption Lamp’s body stiffened upon hearing this.
“The Old Lady misses you very much, and you must miss her too, right?” Qiao Sang continued.
The flame within the Ghost Absorption Lamp’s body swayed.
“Birth, aging, sickness, and death are normal; if you maintain her life with the wick and make yourself like this, she won’t be happy.”
As Qiao Sang finished speaking, the Ghost Absorption Lamp suddenly looked up, as if it had suddenly gained strength within its body.
It didn’t understand why this human in front of it knew about the wick.
“Go see her, and spend the last moments together well.” Qiao Sang sighed.
She was sincere in saying this; in her opinion, rather than stubbornly dragging on for a few more days, it was better to have important people by her side during the last days.
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost drank its milk, blinking its eyes, looking at its Yu Beast Master for a moment and then at the Ghost Absorption Lamp; it didn’t understand.
The Ghost Absorption Lamp understood.
This one had come to capture it.
It had hidden from many people these past few days and understood that they were all sent by its Yu Beast Master to find it.
It looked at the human in front of it, its vision started to blur again, and when it focused its eyes again, it seemed to overlap with the figure of its Yu Beast Master from its younger days.
“God Lamp, from now on I’ll just call you God Lamp. When I want something, I’ll make a wish to you. How does that sound?”
The Ghost Absorption Lamp snapped back to reality.
It couldn’t be caught yet.
Qiao Sang saw that the Ghost Absorption Lamp wasn’t speaking, thinking it hadn’t listened, and wanted to say a few more words.
But the next second, she found it staring at her, its eyes slowly turning purple.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, a familiar figure blocked her.
It was Little Treasure Hunting Ghost.
…
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s head felt a bit dizzy, and when it cleared up, it found its Yu Beast Master bending over and smiling at it.
“Ghost Absorption!”
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost excitedly pounced over; its Yu Beast Master was fine!
But it quickly froze; what did it just say? Ghost Absorption?
“God Lamp, from now on I’ll just call you God Lamp. When I want something, I’ll make a wish to you. How does that sound?” its Yu Beast Master said with a smile.
God Lamp?
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost was a bit confused; wasn’t it called Little Treasure Hunting Ghost? Was it going to change its name?
Immediately after, the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost became even more confused because it found itself nodding uncontrollably and responding with a sound.
“Ghost Absorption!”
Qiao Sang in front of it smiled. She closed her eyes and crossed her hands over her chest: “I want to become a Professional Beast Tamer, travel the world with God Lamp, and make it to the Regional Competition.”
“Ghost Absorption.”
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost paused; it didn’t mind this wish, but could she please not call it God Lamp? It still thought Little Treasure Hunting Ghost sounded better.
“God Lamp, you promised.” Qiao Sang said, opening her eyes and smiling.
“Ghost Absorption.”
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost blinked.
It’s over, it’s over, its Yu Beast Master can’t understand what it’s saying anymore.
Qiao Sang happily lifted it over her head.
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s eyes widened instantly, because there was a mirror behind its Yu Beast Master, clearly reflecting its current appearance.
This wasn’t it!
…
Xi Ying Community.
Qiao Sang picked up the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost and sighed in relief when she saw that it was just sleeping soundly.
She hadn’t expected the Ghost Absorption Lamp to still have the strength to use skills even when it couldn’t get up.
Qiao Sang felt a bit guilty; it was also her fault for being too relaxed. Fortunately, the Ghost Absorption Lamp had used Hypnosis, so it would be fine once the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost woke up.
Qiao Sang looked at the Ghost Absorption Lamp lying motionless on the ground.
“You, even if I fell for your Hypnosis, what good would it do? You can’t even move.”
The Ghost Absorption Lamp looked at her without speaking.
Qiao Sang’s eyelids twitched, and she suddenly felt a lack of security.
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost was under Hypnosis, Ya Bao was sleeping, what if the Ghost Absorption Lamp suddenly did that again?
Qiao Sang held the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, took a step back, turned, and quickly went to the sleeping Ya Bao, freeing one hand to frantically shake it: “Ya Bao! Wake up! If you don’t wake up, Water Luyana will come and spray you with water!”
“Ya.”
Ya Bao smiled with its eyes closed, seemingly having a sweet dream.
Qiao Sang: “…”
Sleeping like this, no wonder Water Luyana always succeeded…
…
“God Lamp, I’m sorry, it’s my fault you’re so hurt.”
The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost watched the person who looked just like its Yu Beast Master holding it, tears and snot streaming down.
It wanted to say it was fine, but its mouth moved without making a sound.
Its eyes uncontrollably closed, and when they opened again, it found itself in a different place.
This time it seemed to be lying on a bed, and everything around it was white.
The person who looked just like its Yu Beast Master sat nearby, looking much thinner.
“From now on, we won’t go to the secret realms. I’ve thought about it, there’s nothing good to see in the outside world anyway.”
“Ghost Absorption…”
“God Lamp, I don’t want to take risks anymore, I want to settle down.”
Mission ends tomorrow!
