Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 263: Disappeared

“Hello?” Qiao Sang answered the phone casually.

A deep, mature male voice rang out: “My surname is Yang, and I just accepted the task you posted. Is it convenient for me to come over now?”

Qiao Sang glanced at Water Luyana, who was standing stiffly beside her like a stone pillar, not saying a word, and decisively said, “Convenient!”

After hanging up the phone, she opened the task platform on her mobile phone to check the personal information of the person who accepted the task.

[Name: Yang Du, Gender: Male, Age: 53 years old]

[Yu Beast Master Level: B]

[Task Capability Rating: B]

[Task Completion Rate: 98%]

[Task Good Review Rate: 86%]

[Number of Negative Reviews: 9 (viewable)]

B-level Beast Tamer… Qiao Sang looked at this piece of information and exclaimed, “Good heavens!”

To be honest, it was her first time posting a task, and she hadn’t set specific requirements for the Yu Beast Master. For a B-level Beast Tamer to accept it under such circumstances, it would be a pity if she didn’t buy a lottery ticket with such luck.

The higher the Yu Beast Master level, the greater the disparity.

In one city, there might still be a few hundred C-level Beastmasters, excluding the elderly, but B-level Beast Tamers, including those retired and elderly, might not even reach a hundred in the entire province.

Not to mention how difficult the B-level Beast Tamer assessment is, the 50% brain development requirement alone stumped nearly 90% of Yu Beast Masters.

This level system is like a pyramid; the higher up, the fewer there are.

50% brain development coupled with the title of B-level Beast Tamer absolutely earns him the title of “big shot.”

Should I wash some fruit and make a cup of tea to wait for the big shot? But it seems there’s no tea at home… Qiao Sang inexplicably thought of this.

“Ding-dong.”

At this moment, the doorbell rang from the entrance.

So fast?!

Qiao Sang rushed over and opened the door.

“Yang Du?”

“It’s me.”

The man speaking had a lean face and sharp features. A bit of stubble paired with messy hair gave him a decadent vibe. He looked nothing like a 53-year-old middle-aged uncle, but rather a promising young man around 27 who worked overtime every day and had no time to groom himself.

If it weren’t for the previous example of the principal, Qiao Sang would probably find it difficult to associate a 53-year-old with the person in front of her.

“Come in.”

Qiao Sang led him to sit on the living room sofa.

Yang Du stared at Qiao Sang and said, “I want to confirm first, is the reward you offered real?”

“It’s real.” Qiao Sang poured a glass of water and placed it in front of him.

Yang Du stared at Qiao Sang for a while, then sighed and said, “I’m sorry, but this matter is very important to me. Are your parents home now? I’d like to discuss the specific Healing plan with them.”

“No, I live here alone.” Qiao Sang replied, “I posted the task, so you can just ask me whatever you want.”

Yang Du instantly got a headache; he felt that this task was probably accepted for nothing.

“Never mind.” Yang Du formed a hand seal, and a red star array lit up on the ground.

A large Pet appeared in the living room: a four-legged creature, mostly blue with black fins and a white belly, possessing thick arms and body, and a fin on its head extending backward, connecting with its tail fin which also extended towards the tail.

General-level Pet, Deep Sea Swamp Monster.

As expected of a B-level Beast Tamer, he immediately summoned a General-level Pet… Qiao Sang silently sighed in her heart.

“Dadou, you stay here. I’ll pick you up in ten days.” Yang Du said.

“Ze.”

The Deep Sea Swamp Monster, also known as Dadou, nodded.

“Then I’ll be leaving now.” Yang Du said this to Qiao Sang and prepared to get up and leave.

“Wait!” Qiao Sang called out.

Yang Du turned to look at her.

Qiao Sang said helplessly, “You’re just leaving it here. What about its food?”

A General-level Pet’s single meal could completely consume a working-class person’s monthly salary.

Yang Du calmly said, “I’ll have my Pet deliver food every day. You just need to open the door then.”

Qiao Sang glanced at the Deep Sea Swamp Monster and sighed, “There’s one more thing. I wanted a Pet that could stay with me 24 hours a day and perform Rain Prayer anytime. The Deep Sea Swamp Monster is very powerful, but I still have to go to school, and with its large size, it’s clearly impossible for it to follow me to school.”

Sometimes, a task isn’t better just because the Yu Beast Master taking it is more powerful; suitability is the most important thing.

Yang Du said indifferently, “I understand. I’ll cancel the task.”

With that, he waved his hand and recalled the Deep Sea Swamp Monster.

“Ya.”

“Lulu.”

At this moment, Yabao and Water Luyana walked over from the courtyard.

Yang Du’s eyes suddenly widened, his breathing quickened, and his face was filled with shock and ecstasy. His gaze could no longer move away from the light blue Pet.

Water Luyana?!

This is Water Luyana?!

To cure his illness, he had researched all possible Healing methods and naturally knew that Water Luyana’s Healing Light was a god-tier Healing skill.

However, although he was a B-level Beast Tamer, he was not enough to be seen in the entire alliance. Let alone applying for Water Luyana’s Healing, he couldn’t even meet her.

And such a rare and precious Water Luyana actually appeared right before his eyes!

The impact of that moment was indescribable.

“What’s wrong?” In a daze, he heard the girl’s voice beside him.

“Lulu.” Water Luyana called out with a coy expression.

“Ya…”

Yabao’s body tensed up.

Qiao Sang looked confused.

Water Luyana didn’t say anything directly, just moved two steps to the left.

Yabao followed, moving to the left.

Water Luyana walked two steps forward, and Yabao also followed, walking forward.

“Lulu…”

Water Luyana stopped and looked at Qiao Sang.

Now you understand, right…

Qiao Sang: “!!!”

Qiao Sang looked at Yabao with a disappointed expression, thinking, I told you to go show your charm! Not to be a bodyguard!

“Ya…”

Yabao looked at his Yu Beast Master with an innocent expression.

Just as Qiao Sang was about to speak and correct Yabao’s image in Water Luyana’s mind, Yang Du asked in a hoarse voice, “Are these two your Pets?”

“Yes.” Qiao Sang turned her head and said, “I’m sorry to have made you come all this way for nothing.”

Speaking of which, it was her fault for not clearly stating the requirements when she posted the task.

“For nothing? No!” Yang Du’s颓废样 changed, his eyes shining brightly as he said, “This task, I’ll take it!”

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment: “But the Deep Sea Swamp Monster…”

Yang Du interrupted, “You don’t have to worry. Although I don’t know why you want a Pet that can perform Rain Prayer 24 hours a day, I guess you just want it to be able to rain anytime.”

“The Deep Sea Swamp Monster can’t accompany you to school, but I can!”

Qiao Sang was confused and asked, “You want to follow me 24 hours a day and accompany me to school?”

“Yes!” Yang Du nodded.

“It’s fine if you stay here with me, but how will you accompany me to school? Our school doesn’t allow outsiders in.” Qiao Sang said.

Yang Du immediately smiled, formed a hand seal, and summoned a two-meter-tall Pet that was entirely white with a zipper on its front belly.

“Maodou, let me in.”

“La…”

This Pet, named Maodou, pulled the zipper on its front all the way down.

After the zipper was opened, its abdomen was empty.

Yang Du crawled inside.

“La…”

The Pet named Maodou pulled the zipper back up.

Then, it disappeared.

P.S.: Sorry, because everyone in my family except me has Yang, I dealt with some things tonight and was late.
