Chapter 684: It’s a lot of fun (two-in-one)

An hour later, Qiao Sang vomited out the Forging Worm, her face pale.

Er’ma timely brought a glass of water.

Qiao Sang took it and drank it all at once, diluting the nauseous feeling.

“Thank you,” Qiao Sang let out a long breath and thanked her.

“It’s what I should do,” Er’ma said, then thought of something and asked with a smile, “Do you want to continue training with the Forging Worm, or continue tomorrow?”

Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and asked, “Can I take the Forging Worm back for training?”

In the second stage, the Forging Worm had to travel through the meridians in her body 99 times. If she only trained once a day, it would take 99 days.

But by that stage, she would have already gone to university, and it was unclear if she would have time to come here then, so she naturally hoped to finish this training as soon as possible.

She had just tried it once, and it took about an hour. If she could take the Forging Worm home, she could train at least three times a day, saving travel time.

Er’ma said:

“Are you looking for the Forging Worm to provide home service? It’s possible, but this Forging Worm is not my Pet. The home service fee is also different from the one here. You’ll need to ask this Forging Worm’s Yu Beast Master for specifics.”

After speaking, she had a slight smile on her face: “I’ll go ask for you now.”

“Okay,” Qiao Sang nodded.

For some reason, she felt that Er’ma had become much more respectful towards her.

That’s right, it was respect.

Could it be that she had endured the pain and allowed the Forging Worm to travel through her body once, earning Er’ma’s admiration?

Er’ma pushed the door open and left.

At this moment, Tang Yi, who was beside her, gave a thumbs-up: “Awesome, I admire you.”

“Admire what?” Qiao Sang sat down on the sofa next to him and asked.

“You accepted having an Insect-type Pet travel through your body so quickly,” Tang Yi asked sincerely, “Aren’t you disgusted?”

Qiao Sang glanced at him: “What do you think?”

It seems she was disgusted… Tang Yi looked at Qiao Sang’s pale face and uncontrollably imagined himself swallowing a Forging Worm. He suddenly felt nauseous, looking as if he was about to vomit but couldn’t.

Please don’t suddenly retch while looking at me… Qiao Sang complained inwardly, subtly shifting her butt on the surface, moving a little further away from Tang Yi.

After retching, Tang Yi drank a mouthful of water from in front of him, let out a long, turbid breath, and said:

“I think this training method might not be suitable for me…”

Qiao Sang advised, “You can try it first.”

Hearing this, Tang Yi hesitated.

The scene of Qiao Sang enduring the Punching Child’s 200 kg punch without injury was still fresh in his memory.

But the later scene of the Forging Worm being swallowed also left a very deep impression on him…

Just then, Er’ma pushed the door open and walked in, saying:

“The Forging Worm’s Yu Beast Master agreed, but he requires a fee of 3000 alliance coins per hour, and the time for home service each day can be decided by you.”

“Alright,” Qiao Sang didn’t waste words, stood up and said, “Then let the Forging Worm come to my place this afternoon. I’ll send you the address.”

3000 alliance coins per hour, if calculated as one hour per session, 99 sessions would be… Tang Yi silently took out his phone, opened the calculator, and did the math.

297,000 alliance coins…

Forget it, he doesn’t deserve to train… Tang Yi put his phone back in his pocket.

…

Three in the afternoon.

Qiao Sang sat cross-legged on the bed in her room, Meditating.

“Ding-dong~”

The doorbell rang.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao was playing on the computer with Superpower and didn’t want to get up, so she called out to Steel Treasure, who was training Iron Wall nearby.

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure put away Iron Wall, walked to the door, and looked at the surveillance.

Seeing it was the Forging Worm from the morning, he extended his wing and opened the door.

“Forging.”

The Forging Worm slowly crawled in, displayed the work badge hanging around its neck, and then picked up the stopwatch it carried to start timing.

“Steel Guard.”

Seeing this, Steel Treasure extended his wing and covered the stopwatch.

“Forging?”

The Forging Worm showed a confused expression.

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure pointed to the location of his Yu Beast Master’s room not far away and called out, indicating that timing could only begin when it officially started helping with the training.

“Forging.”

The Forging Worm didn’t mind this. It nodded and slowly crawled inside.

“Steel Guard!”

Steel Treasure followed closely, raising his voice.

Qiao Sang heard the sound, slowly opened her eyes, saw a Forging Worm crawling in at the door, and greeted it: “You’re here.”

“Forging.”

“Forging?”

The Forging Worm first nodded, then called out, asking when it could start?

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure translated simultaneously.

“Right now,” Qiao Sang said.

“Forging.”

The Forging Worm then pressed the stopwatch, then took off its work uniform and work badge, and jumped into Qiao Sang’s mouth.

Damn it, it still hurts so much… Qiao Sang’s forehead was sweating, and she curled up on the bed.

Seeing this, Steel Treasure turned and went into the kitchen to pour a glass of water, placed it on the bedside table, stared at his Yu Beast Master for a while, then ran to the bathroom to wet a towel, wring it dry, fold it into a block, and place it on his Yu Beast Master’s forehead.

He had flown to many places and seen many humans, and he remembered that humans always did this when they were uncomfortable…

Steel Treasure stared intently at his Yu Beast Master.

The dampness on her forehead slightly diverted Qiao Sang’s attention, making her feel less uncomfortable. She slowly let out a breath.

Steel Treasure observed for a while, then returned to the living room to continue performing Iron Wall, deeply hiding his功与名.

“Ding-dong~”

Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang again.

Steel Treasure glanced at Xiao Xunbao, who was already in a frenzy on the computer, withdrew Iron Wall, and went to the door to look at the surveillance.

It was a human he had never seen before.

“Ding-dong~ Ding-dong~”

The doorbell rang twice more.

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure pressed the talk button and called out.

The person at the door was visibly stunned: “Is this Miss Qiao Sang’s home? I am a Staff member from the Negative Energy Collection Competition organizer, here to film a promotional video for Ghost Ring Spirit.”

Steel Treasure recalled in his mind and found that there was indeed such a matter.

He extended his wing and opened the door.

“Your…” The Staff member’s smile froze when he saw the figure opening the door: “Yu Beast Master?”

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure pointed to Xiao Xunbao, who was still playing on the computer in the living room, and called out, indicating that his Yu Beast Master was unwell and should not be disturbed, and that they could directly find Xiao Xunbao for the promotional video.

The Staff member carried a Ghost-type Pet with a pointed horn on its forehead.

“Translate it,” the Staff member said to his Pet.

“Ghost,” the Pet with the pointed horn translated.

The Staff member looked at the Ghost-type Pet not far away, which seemed to be typing on the keyboard, and hesitated: “This doesn’t seem to be Ghost Ring Spirit?”

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure patiently explained.

It evolved.

“Translate it again,” the Staff member said.

“Ghost.”

Hearing what his Yu Beast Master said, the Staff member was stunned: “You said Ghost Ring Spirit has already evolved?”

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure nodded.

Didn’t they say Ghost Ring Spirit was a High-level Pet on Blue Star? That contestant named Qiao Sang clearly looked underage… The Staff member was silent for a moment, then took out his Pet Identifier and aimed it at the Ghost-type Pet that was still typing on the keyboard.

Soon, the Pet Identifier made a sound:

“Sorry, identification failed.”

Identification failed… The Staff member put down the Pet Identifier, looked at Steel Treasure, and said:

“I want to see your Yu Beast Master.”

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure stared at him, his expression calm.

She’s not feeling well. If you don’t film now, you can reschedule for another time.

This time, the Staff member didn’t let his Pet translate, but frowned and repeated: “I want to see your Yu Beast Master.”

He didn’t really want to communicate with a Pet. For a villa like this, even if the owner wasn’t home, there should be a butler or something to greet him.

But no one came out to receive him at all.

What’s there to say to a Pet? The language isn’t even the same, and it would be terribly troublesome to film later.

Seeing that the Pet in front of him seemed to have no intention of calling its Yu Beast Master, the Staff member took out his phone, just about to contact Qiao Sang.

“Steel Guard.”

At this moment, Steel Treasure called out and walked towards a certain spot.

He should have called his Yu Beast Master a long time ago… The Staff member put down his phone when he saw this.

Ten seconds later, he heard footsteps, but not the kind of human walking.

“Steel Guard,” followed by the sound of that Pet.

The Staff member looked up and saw a red figure over 6 meters tall, full of Pressure, walking from behind the original bird-like Pet.

“Ya.”

Ya Bao remembered what the fourth brother had just told him, stared at the human in front of him with an unfriendly expression, and called out.

Staff member: “!!!”

Oh my god, what kind of Pet is this… The Staff member only felt a huge shadow envelop him, blocking all light.

His heart pounded faster, and he couldn’t help but take a step back.

“Steel Guard.”

Seeing this, Steel Treasure subtly curled his lips and called out.

“Quick! Translate!” the Staff member said urgently.

“Ghost…” The Pet with the pointed horn was also pressured by the powerful aura, leaned closer to its Yu Beast Master, grabbed his arm, and translated with a nervous expression.

It was still the same sentence: She’s not feeling well. If you don’t film now, you can come back next time.

The Staff member dared not come back next time. He said eagerly:

“I’ll film it now!”

With that, he quickly took out various filming equipment.

Steel Treasure saw this scene and showed a satisfied expression.

“Steel Guard.”

It flapped its wings, indicating that it was done and that Brother Ya Bao could continue his training.

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao inexplicably felt that something was not quite right. He thought about it for a moment, then shook his head.

His Yu Beast Master was uncomfortable right now, and he needed to watch this human to prevent him from disturbing her.

“Steel Guard.”

Upon hearing this, Steel Treasure said no more, moved aside, and began training Iron Wall.

Suddenly, a “boom boom” sound of an explosion rang out from outside.

Steel Treasure was all too familiar with this sound; it was the noise Brother Ya Bao usually made when training his skills.

It removed the Iron Wall, glanced to the side, and showed a puzzled expression.

Brother Ya Bao was clearly staying nearby…

Steel Treasure thought for a moment and walked towards the open-air training ground. Then, it saw a group of Flame Qilu using fire-type skills.

“Steel Guard…”

Steel Treasure looked at the scene before him, deep in thought.

It knew that Brother Ya Bao could use many clones to train different skills simultaneously, but it never knew that the main body and clones could be so far apart and still do their own things…

If it learned this move in the future, could it also do many things at once and save time…

……

An hour later.

“Forging.”

Forging Worm put his work clothes back on, bowed, and slowly crawled out the door.

Qiao Sang lay on the bed, her voice weak: “Go well…”

She recovered for a moment, picked up her phone from the side, wanting to see how much time she had spent exercising this time.

She lit up the screen, which showed two unread messages:

“Hello, I am the Staff responsible for filming the Ghost Ring Spirit. I have arrived. Are you home?”

“I have finished filming. I didn’t expect your Ghost Ring Spirit to have evolved. Congratulations!”

Huh? Already finished filming? Qiao Sang sat up, recalling that she had indeed heard some movement outside just now.

The sound insulation of the building materials here was too good; as long as the door was closed, she could barely hear anything. Only Qiao Sang could still hear some sounds, but what was being said specifically was not very clear.

She had originally thought it was Ya Bao and the others making noise, but it turned out to be the people filming the promotional video…

Qiao Sang replied with a message:

“I wasn’t feeling well just now. Was there any problem with the filming?”

The other party replied instantly:

“It was filmed very well, and all your Pets were very cooperative!”

Qiao Sang felt relieved and exited the message inbox.

She wasn’t worried that Xiao Xunbao’s evolution would cause problems with the filming. After all, she had experienced Ya Bao evolving into a Yan Ling Dog before filming and knew that Pet evolution was actually beneficial to the publicity side.

However, she hadn’t expected Xiao Xunbao to cooperate with the filming and ensure its smooth progress when she wasn’t on site.

“Steel Guard.”

At this moment, Steel Treasure pushed the door open, called out, and expressed its desire to learn the clone skill.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment:

“Why did you suddenly think of learning the clone skill?”

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure flapped its wings, indicating that it felt learning the clone skill would allow it to do many things at once, just like Brother Ya Bao.

Qiao Sang was both surprised and not surprised by this answer.

Steel Treasure had always had its own ideas and knew what direction to train in, but she hadn’t expected it to want to learn the clone skill now.

This skill was simply too much of a bug for her, who had a Gold Finger.

One Pet would be fine, but if all her Pets used clones like Ya Bao, it would definitely make people notice something was wrong. If she ever participated in a highly publicized competition in the future, her past would surely be dug up.

When each Pet’s skill was just learned, it could reach minor or even major proficiency in just one day due to simultaneous training with clones. Anyone with a bit of thought would know there was a problem.

If only one Pet was like this, people would at most marvel at its talent, but if every Pet was like this, people would probably explode.

After all, netizens’ imaginations should not be underestimated.

Fortunately, Xiao Xunbao and the others all had their own training methods and combat styles, and their training progress was not slow.

So she hadn’t let Xiao Xunbao and the others learn the clone skill.

Qiao Sang pondered for a moment, then said:

“Alright, I’ll figure something out, but don’t fall behind on the progress of other skills, especially Iron Wall.”

“Steel Guard.”

Steel Treasure nodded seriously, indicating understanding, then walked out of the room, thoughtfully closing the door behind him.

Forget it, if Steel Treasure wants to learn it, let him learn it. At worst, I’ll just wait a while before releasing newly learned moves in front of people… Qiao Sang thought to herself.

She didn’t realize that she had never doubted the possibility of Steel Treasure learning the clone skill.

……

Qiao Sang was no longer her old self. She now held an unlimited card and was on vacation. Her first thought was to take Steel Treasure to a professional training institution for the clone skill.

After searching online, she arrived at her destination that same evening.

This was a training institution located not far from her residence. The trainers there almost all held High Level certificates and were usually very difficult to book.

However, consulting about prices did not require an appointment.

The consultant pushed the trainers’ profiles forward and said:

“Our trainers here are definitely first-class in the First District. They have taught…”

Qiao Sang interrupted: “Who teaches the clone skill in the shortest amount of time?”

The consultant thought for a moment, then pointed to a man with an afro in one of the photos and said:

“Mr. Everett is a High Level trainer. He once taught a Pet the clone skill and how to use it flexibly in just half a month. At that time, that customer also introduced many of his friends.”

“What? Half a month at the fastest?” Qiao Sang’s tone was slightly shocked.

Another one who was impressed by Mr. Everett. It seems this deal is solid… The consultant smiled: “That’s right, it’s half a…”

“Is it that slow?” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but interrupt again: “Is there anything faster?”

Consultant: “…”

She somewhat doubted if she had heard correctly.

Teaching the clone skill in half a month, and that’s slow?

She controlled her facial expression, maintaining a smile, and said:

“The clone skill is an intermediate-level skill. Learning it in half a month is already very fast, and it also depends on the Pet’s talent. Ordinary Pets cannot learn it that quickly.”

Qiao Sang was a little disappointed and asked again:

“Is there nothing faster?”

The consultant shook her head: “No.”

“Then forget it.”

This speed is not as good as training by myself… Qiao Sang stood up decisively and walked out.

The consultant was utterly bewildered.

She just left?

Could it be that she was really complaining that half a month was too slow, and not just messing with her?

……

Qiao Sang returned home, thought for a moment, then called Ya Bao and Steel Treasure, saying:

“Ya Bao, when you train Mars Rain recently, control the power to be a little smaller, and let Steel Treasure practice moving and dodging below.”

Ya Bao had learned the clone skill in a baseball training hall. Mars Rain, in terms of both power and density, was stronger than an automatic baseball pitching machine. Steel Treasure is so smart; if it replicates Ya Bao’s training method, it will probably learn the clone skill.

Now that she had finished the first stage of defensive training, even if Steel Treasure was hit by Mars Rain, she should be able to withstand it…

“Ya!”

“Steel Guard.”

Ya Bao and Steel Treasure both called out at the same time, indicating understanding.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang showed a gratified expression.

The best thing about her Pets was that she didn’t have to worry much about their training.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

At this moment, Xiao Xunbao, who was playing on the computer nearby, widened his eyes and called out to the screen with a fierce expression.

Go! Charge! Don’t be a coward!

Except for Xiao Xunbao… Qiao Sang silently added in her heart.

……

2 AM.

Xiao Xunbao drank energy recovery liquid while controlling the keyboard with his Superpower.

“Charming Fatty: Bro, you play hard. Last time you actually called your partner Yu Beast Master?”

“Xiao Xunbao?”

Xiao Xunbao tilted his head, showing a puzzled expression, and typed with his Superpower:

“Not a partner, just my Yu Beast Master.”

“Charming Fatty: Hahaha, alright, young man, I can’t keep up with you guys.”

Xiao Xunbao didn’t quite understand the meaning of this sentence and typed a reply:

“I don’t use my feet, I float.”

“Charming Fatty: Alright, still immersed in your Pet persona? What, is your Pet persona a Ghost-type Pet or a Superpower System Pet?”

Xiao Xunbao used his Superpower:

“What Pet persona? I am a Ghost-type Pet.”

“Charming Fatty: …You’re strong.”

Xiao Xunbao felt a little proud when he saw these two words.

“I am inherently strong.”

“Charming Fatty: … ”

Xiao Xunbao was about to use his Superpower to type again when suddenly, he felt something, and his eyes lit up with bright blue light.

The next second, the coffee table, computer, sofa, television, dining table…

Everything in the living room floated up.
