Chapter 675: Shell characteristics

On the way, the two chatted idly.

Before long, they had become quite familiar with each other.

Doreen finally asked the question that had been piquing her curiosity for a long time: “What is your Ghost-type Pet called? I’ve been searching on the Pet Identifier for ages, but I can’t find it.”

“It’s called Ghost Ring Spirit,” Qiao Sang said. “Perhaps it’s a Pet from Blue Star, so the common Pet Identifiers on the market don’t have its data.”

Doreen was utterly bewildered, looking at Xiao Xunbao, who was still playing “cat’s cradle,” with a shocked expression.

To be honest, she had considered many reasons why the Pet Identifier couldn’t find it, but she never imagined that the Pet in front of her wasn’t a Pet from Super Dormant Star!

“How did you contract a Pet from Blue Star?” Doreen couldn’t help but ask.

Qiao Sang glanced at her: “Because I’m from Blue Star.”

Doreen: “!!!”

A Blue Star person?!

She had lived until now, and this was the first time she had seen a human from another planet in real life!

In an instant, the image of the young girl before her became extremely mysterious.

Doreen looked at Qiao Sang with burning eyes, no longer composed, and asked a series of questions:

“How did you come to our Super Dormant Star?”

“What procedures do you need to go through to go to other planets?”

“I heard there are no wild Pets on the roads of Blue Star, is that true?”

“Have you been to a Secret Realm? What does it look like?”

Qiao Sang answered patiently.

To be honest, the feeling of answering questions for someone older than herself was quite nice.

Suddenly, Qiao Sang remembered something and asked, “What about your Ghost-type Pet? What’s its name? I saw it was on you the whole time later.”

“You mean Smokescreen Spirit,” Doreen said with a smile. “It has the ‘Shell Attachment’ characteristic, allowing it to stay on me and increase my defense.”

“Earlier, wasn’t I directly attacked by Undergrudge Yodo in the morgue? If Smokescreen Spirit hadn’t attached itself to me in time, I’m afraid I’d be lying in the ICU right now.”

Qiao Sang felt a sudden pang of envy upon hearing this.

If Xiao Xunbao also had such a characteristic, she wouldn’t have had to spend money every day acting as a sandbag during this period.

However, after a quick thought, the pain from bond evolution was from the inside out, so Shell Attachment probably wouldn’t have much effect. She then felt a little better, realizing her time as a sandbag wasn’t entirely in vain…

The two chatted a few more sentences, and when they reached an intersection, Doreen said,

“Let’s add each other as friends. If there are any Ghost-type Pet competitions in the future, I’ll call you to join.”

“Okay.” Qiao Sang took out her phone and exchanged contact information.

After saying goodbye and Doreen left, Qiao Sang walked a distance along the road and came to a spacious area where she formed a hand seal and summoned Ya!.

She couldn’t quite describe her feelings at that moment; she just wanted Ya! to come out and relax a bit too.

The First District does not prohibit large Pets from moving on the streets. Many people, in order to show off, would even spend a lot of money to rent a large Pet to act as a display.

After all, the size and strength of most Pets are directly proportional.

Previously, Qiao Sang had always worried that Ya! would cause an accident with just a casual movement, so she hadn’t summoned it.

However, she now realized that Yu Beast Masters with strength are actually quite free-spirited. Even when they summon large Pets to move around outside, there are rarely incidents of passersby being injured, because everyone seeing high-level, large Pets will proactively avoid them.

Qiao Sang felt it was time for her mindset to change.

Otherwise, constantly worrying about this and that would easily lead to mental exhaustion.

“Ya!”

As soon as Ya! came out, seeing that it wasn’t the living room or the outdoor training ground, it immediately raised its head and let out an excited cry.

The surrounding passersby quietly moved away. Some passersby, seeing a Pet they had never seen before, even summoned their Flying-type Pets and flew into the sky to find a good angle for taking pictures.

“We’re going back like before,” Qiao Sang said, looking up with a smile.

“Ya!”

Ya! wagged its tail and let out a cheerful cry.

Immediately, its eyes glowed blue, and Qiao Sang was controlled by psychic power to land on its back.

Honestly, she hadn’t noticed it before, but after sitting on Steel Treasure for so long recently, sitting on Ya!’s back felt truly comfortable… Qiao Sang stroked the fur on Ya!’s back, felt the softness beneath her, and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes lit up at the sight, and it stopped playing “cat’s cradle,” floating onto Ya!’s back.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao rolled around on Ya!’s back, looking utterly comfortable.

“Ya!”

Ya! let out a long cry, its flame-formed wings fully spread, like a streak of fire, soaring straight into the sky.

Leaving a crimson stroke in the night sky.

…

After dinner, Qiao Sang returned to her bedroom and drew the curtains.

She sat cross-legged on the bed and began Meditation.

After an unknown amount of time, her phone began to vibrate.

Qiao Sang opened her eyes and saw Xiao Xunbao training Dark Shadow Control less than two meters in front of her.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Seeing her Yu Beast Master looking at it, Xiao Xunbao grinned and trained Dark Shadow Control even more diligently.

This competition wasn’t for nothing… Qiao Sang felt happy inside, but on the surface, she picked up her phone with a melancholic expression and chose to answer.

A low voice sounded:

“May I speak with Ms. Qiao Sang?”

“This is she,” Qiao Sang said.

“Hello, I am a Staff member for the Ghost-type Pet Negative Energy Collection Competition. Our emotional energy collection bottle is still with you,” the other party said.

Qiao Sang thought the organizer wanted it back and asked, “Something came up for me midway, so I didn’t return in time. Are you sending someone to pick it up, or should I deliver it?”

The person speaking had a smile in their voice: “We had a live broadcast throughout, and we are aware of your situation. The reason for my call this time is to offer you a proposal. Would you be able to bring your Ghost-type Pet to us to film a promotional video for the Ghost-type Pet Negative Energy Collection Competition? Regarding the emotional energy collection bottle and the energy you collected during this competition, we will not be reclaiming them.”

Qiao Sang hesitated for a moment and asked,

“How much time will it take to film this?”

“It won’t take too long, just half an hour,” the Staff member said. “If you don’t have time to come to us, we can bring the equipment to your location. There is still a quarter of a year until our next Ghost-type Pet Negative Energy Collection Competition, so you just need to finish filming within one month.”

Qiao Sang immediately nodded: “Okay, then once I’ve decided on a time, I’ll send a text message to this phone number.”

“Alright, I wish you a pleasant life.” The other party finished speaking and hung up the phone.

It seems the organizer knows Xiao Xunbao is a Pet from Blue Star… Qiao Sang wasn’t particularly surprised by their request.

Although Super Dormant Star usually doesn’t allow Pets to absorb emotional energy freely, for organizers of these competitions, emotional energy collection bottles and these emotional energies aren’t particularly valuable items.

For Xiao Xunbao, as a Ghost-type Pet from Blue Star, to film a related promotional video, they would definitely profit.

Just as she was thinking, the doorbell rang outside.

Who is it, so late at night… Qiao Sang put on her shoes and went to the surveillance video to take a look.

A face slightly more haggard than she remembered appeared on the monitor.

It was the Vice Principal.
