Chapter 184: Sample, come here

Although the current Yu Beast society appears peaceful on the surface, where there are people, there is a dark side.

Before Pets became widespread, there were only human traffickers, but as the Yu Beast society developed, the profession of beast traffickers emerged.

People engaged in this profession are generally ordinary people or low-level Yu Beast Masters.

They neither dare to capture Pets in secret realms nor dare to target Pets that have undergone an evolution.

Because even Intermediate Pets that have only evolved once are mostly not too small in size, and if an Intermediate Pet senses something is wrong, a casual skill release can cause a large commotion.

Most importantly, even if they succeed, if the Yu Beast Master who owns the Intermediate Pet is B-level or above, not only will the danger factor increase sharply, but they also won’t be able to force the Pet to forcibly break the contract.

Therefore, without exception, their targets for abduction are small, naive, and easily deceived Beginner Pets.

Of course, cases of beast traffickers abducting Pets are isolated incidents, and each occurrence makes social news.

After all, there are really not many people doing this line of work nowadays.

The last beast trafficker reported in the news was three months ago.

According to his confession, he had staked out a training institution for a month and finally managed to target a Little Qiu Pu that had no Yu Beast Master picking her up or dropping her off.

So he spent a fortune buying aromatic fruits that have a great attraction for Grass-type Pets, and as he expected, Little Qiu Pu became close to him.

Later, he successfully took Little Qiu Pu onto a long-distance black car that didn’t require identity verification, using the excuse of taking her to eat more aromatic fruits.

Due to the contract, a Yu Beast Master will sense if their Pet’s body is abnormal, so he could only keep Little Qiu Pu happy with good food and drink before the black car left the local area.

As a result, that evening, with a flash of white light, Little Qiu Pu directly evolved into a Sweet Flower Pu.

And that wasn’t all.

A minute later, the Sweet Flower Pu, eating the aromatic fruits he had bought on loan, suddenly disappeared from the black car.

The beast trafficker was instantly dumbfounded.

He only learned after he was arrested that Little Qiu Pu’s owner was actually a B-level Yu Beast Master, and Little Qiu Pu was the fifth Pet he had contracted.

No matter where Little Qiu Pu went to play, as long as she was still in the local area, the B-level Yu Beast Master could directly summon Little Qiu Pu back using his yu beast codex.

And his existence was revealed without reservation by Little Qiu Pu after she evolved into a Sweet Flower Pu.

This beast trafficker burst into tears upon learning the truth, vowing to turn over a new leaf and never engage in this line of work again.

After the news reported this incident, many beast traffickers washed their hands of the business, and the already few cases of Pet abductions did not occur even once for several consecutive months.

However, Qiao Sang felt that she still couldn’t be careless.

After all, it’s just that fewer people are doing the beast trafficking, not that no one is doing it anymore.

A Beginner Pet like Ke Guan Meow, walking on the street, radiating the aura of alliance coins, might just be targeted.

Ke Guan Meow’s Yu Beast Master is truly bold… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and then asked, “Why did she specifically ask for Treasure Hunting Ghost?”

“I recommended her,” the Miss at the front desk replied, “She wants to find a Beginner Pet that can teleport to be her sparring partner, and currently, your Treasure Hunting Ghost is the only one in our club that fits the criteria.”

…

After understanding Ke Guan Meow’s information, Qiao Sang walked into Training Ground No. 2.

She saw a Pet wearing a sun hat and sunglasses sitting in the first row of the spectator seats, eating the free fruit provided by the club with extremely elegant movements.

Qiao Sang was stunned for a long time; if she hadn’t known beforehand that it was Ke Guan Meow, she really wouldn’t have recognized her with the hat and sunglasses on.

“Ke Guan?”

Ke Guan Meow heard the movement, turned her head, and elegantly tilted her head.

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, then said, “Little Treasure Hunting, translate this.”

“Xun~”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost appeared to provide real-time translation.

She didn’t say much, just introduced her identity.

After Ke Guan Meow confirmed that Little Treasure Hunting Ghost could teleport, she took out a phone from a bag placed on the seat next to her with her paw, opened the camera, and aimed it at the training ground.

Then she took off her sun hat and sunglasses and walked to one side of the training ground with extremely elegant steps.

Goodness, she even wants to record it… Qiao Sang felt a deep admiration for Ke Guan Meow’s Yu Beast Master at that moment.

In a sense, it’s not easy to train a Pet to such an extent.

Qiao Sang looked at Ke Guan Meow, who had now fully revealed herself.

A large head, short limbs, a white cat fur, and purple eyes, small flat feet and ears that were also purple.

Coupled with a charming curve and a purple diagonal hook-shaped tail, and the purple crown on her forehead, she gave off a feeling of two words: elegance.

“Ke Guan,” Ke Guan Meow elegantly called out, signaling to begin.

“Little Treasure Hunting, go.” Qiao Sang nodded to Little Treasure Hunting Ghost.

“Xun~”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost floated into the training ground and immediately concealed her figure.

Qiao Sang watched Ke Guan Meow’s movements with a serious expression, not daring to be careless.

This battle was quite different from previous ones; without a Yu Beast Master directing from the side, she couldn’t react based on the opponent’s commands.

Moreover, as a sparring partner, she also had to provide appropriate suggestions during the battle.

Ke Guan Meow showed no panic looking at the disappeared Treasure Hunting Ghost; her right foreleg stepped forward, and a blue glowing energy shield expanded outwards from her center, stopping when it reached a radius of about 50 centimeters.

Qiao Sang was stunned when she saw this; Mysterious Bodyguard, a defensive skill, allows one to be surrounded by mysterious power, preventing oneself from falling into abnormal states.

It seemed very useful, but one of its fatal flaws was that it couldn’t prevent abnormal states caused by the opponent’s abilities.

In short, for Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, who has the Penetration ability, this thing is useless…

After casting Mysterious Bodyguard, Ke Guan Meow elegantly raised her head, seemingly saying, “Come on, little one, come here.”

“Xun…”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost appeared, curiously approaching to examine the Mysterious Bodyguard shield.

She extended a short claw and poked the blue glowing shield; ripples spread where it was poked, and the short claw passed directly through the shield and entered.

“Xun?”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost tilted her head.

The next second, her entire body ignored the blue shield and penetrated through it.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost blinked innocently at Ke Guan Meow.

“Ke Guan!”

Ke Guan Meow was Stunned, her fur immediately bristling, no longer able to maintain her elegance.

Clearly, she had never encountered such a situation in her past battles.

Now it was her turn to step in… Qiao Sang cleared her throat and explained:

“Your Mysterious Bodyguard skill can defend against interference-type skills, but it’s not very useful against fast opponents or those with certain abilities.”

“If Treasure Hunting Ghost had used Teleportation and attacked you up close just now, you would have suffered injuries before you even had time to release that move.”

“Ke Guan…” Ke Guan Meow looked blankly at Qiao Sang.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost took the opportunity to stick out her tongue, wanting to lick her.

Just as her tongue was only 0.05 centimeters away from Ke Guan Meow, Ke Guan Meow jumped back a step, extending her right front paw to make a stop gesture.

“Ke Guan!”
