Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 718: Bazhi Mountains (Added third update for Xueyuehuashi leader)
The next day.
During the second class break, Qiao Sang had Xiao Xunbao directly transfer her to the entrance of the Seventh Research Base.
Yu Liandun University’s research bases prohibit unauthorized personnel from entering, and also prohibit Pets from using skills or characteristics to enter.
If one enters without swiping a card, an alarm will immediately sound inside, and if caught, they will be given a disciplinary record.
It was considered one of the stricter school rules.
Qiao Sang handed her student ID card to the mechanical-type Pet.
The mechanical-type Pet scanned it with its eyes and quickly let her through.
Qiao Sang walked into the research center, holding Ya Bao.
Doctor Dorarisa was holding a glass test tube containing purple liquid and feeding it to a Grass-type Pet, about 30 centimeters in size, with two green leaves growing on its head.
The Pet with two green leaves on its head cooperatively drank it, even smacking its lips.
“Alright,” Doctor Dorarisa looked at the mechanical clock on the wall and said, “Come find me again in two hours.”
“Dada.”
The Pet with two green leaves on its head nodded, then walked towards the direction of the supervision area.
“You’re here,” Dorarisa looked at Qiao Sang and greeted her.
Qiao Sang hummed in response and asked curiously, “What was it drinking just now?”
“That’s a Dada Grass with emotional apathy,” Dorarisa explained, “The potion I gave it can slightly activate its emotional perception.”
After speaking, she remembered Qiao Sang’s Ice Kexilu and smiled:
“Ice Kexilu’s Healing Light can only treat physical conditions; it can’t treat situations like the Dada Grass, which can only be slowly addressed step by step.”
It was an eye-opener; Pets could also have emotional apathy… Qiao Sang thought of her purpose for coming here and got straight to the point:
“Yesterday, my Ice Kexilu transferred two waves of desperate emotional energy. Will this emotional impact have a time limit?”
Dorarisa replied:
“That depends on Ice Kexilu’s own emotional digestion. Pets have diverse personalities; some Pets are easily affected and fall into a dead end, while others are more carefree, and the impact will disappear in a few minutes.”
Isn’t the latter referring to Xiao Xunbao…? Qiao Sang thought of another matter and said:
“I have an elder who said there’s a Pet called Ji Si Dan (Gis Egg) on our Blue Star that can amplify the target’s emotions to the strongest degree. Is this related to the emotional energy vibration frequency?”
Dorarisa was stunned for a moment, her eyes suddenly lighting up: “Are you sure it amplifies to the strongest degree?”
“Yes,” Qiao Sang nodded.
Dorarisa’s face was excited:
“If it truly amplifies to the strongest degree, then it would be of immense help to our research!”
She began to speak volubly:
“Actually, there are many Pets that can influence the target’s emotions, such as the Swift Butterfly, which is relatively common on our Super Dormant Star. I’ve experimented with many such emotion-influencing Pets, but the results showed that they actually affect dopamine in the brain, not directly control the emotional energy vibration frequency.”
“Later, we felt that the emotional energy influence wasn’t strong enough, so we’ve been looking for Pets with S-rank emotional characteristics, but unfortunately, such Pets are too difficult to find.”
“If what you say is true, then Ji Si Dan (Gis Egg) might be able to replace Pets with S-rank emotional characteristics as research assistants!”
“I’m going to apply for a report right now! To have Ji Si Dan (Gis Egg) transported from Blue Star!”
After speaking, Dorarisa turned and left impatiently.
Uh, I haven’t even said that Ji Si Dan (Gis Egg) is monopolized… Qiao Sang opened her mouth.
At this moment, the class bell rang.
Never mind, family monopolies are different from endangered Pets; as long as they are willing to pay a sufficient price, the other party should agree.
Qiao Sang looked at the empty air beside her.
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Xiao Xunbao appeared, its eyes glowing blue.
The next second, Qiao Sang disappeared from where she was.
…
The students of Yu Liandun University had incredibly stable mentalities.
After searching for a whole day, Ghost Sense only found one in the restroom.
In the evening, Qiao Sang returned home.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao saw the computer on the coffee table in the living room, its eyes lit up, and it instinctively floated over.
Qiao Sang coughed.
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao’s body instantly stiffened, and it turned its head pitifully.
Qiao Sang coldly refused:
“No playing.”
She had read the yu beast codex before bed last night and saw that Xiao Xunbao’s Substitute had already reached the Profound Meaning peak.
Continuing to train like this now would not have any training effect.
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao instantly became emo.
“Ya Ya.”
Ya Bao comforted it, indicating that the computer was boring and it was better to train with it.
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao looked at Ya Bao, revealing an expression that said, “You don’t understand anything.”
Qiao Sang unconsciously looked at Ghost Sense, finding that it had no reaction.
It seems Xiao Xunbao is no longer desperate about not being able to play on the computer…
What a pity… Qiao Sang felt a strange sense of regret.
After dinner, and after the Forging Worm’s home service ended, Qiao Sang washed up and rested for a bit, then took Lu Bao to the Nine Realms Amusement Park.
“Gan Gan!”
As soon as they arrived at the Aquatic High-Altitude Competition area, Ghost Sense, who had been quiet all along, suddenly sniffed its nose, revealing an expression of “It’s alive!”
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao, in her arms, already had experience translating for her Yu Beast Master, and without needing a reminder, it automatically translated.
There’s so much desperate emotion!
Lu Bao was still affected by the residual desperate emotions, and her mood was low, with no particularly strong reaction.
Isn’t this an amusement park? How could people feel desperate here? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then saw that the targets Ghost Sense was looking at were all very familiar.
Soon, she remembered where she had seen these people.
Goodness, aren’t these all the tourists who had been lining up to play the Aquatic High-Altitude Competition here for a while now?
Watching them occasionally glance at her and Lu Bao, Qiao Sang immediately understood why they were desperate.
Didn’t expect this kind of gain… Qiao Sang suppressed a smile and nodded at Ghost Sense.
“Gan Gan.”
Ghost Sense had good comprehension; although the human in front of it wasn’t its Yu Beast Master, it still understood the meaning of the nod.
The next moment, Ghost Sense concealed its form.
When Ghost Sense swaps the target’s emotions, it will show a white mist. Although it shouldn’t be too obvious at night, it’s still better not to be too blatant… Qiao Sang looked at Lu Bao, who had been quiet all along.
I hope it can collect faster; she doesn’t want to see Lu Bao constantly enveloped in desperate emotions, yet not meeting the standard for evolution.
Better a short pain than a long one…
Two hours later, Lu Bao consecutively won first place, but her mood became increasingly low.
…
The next day.
8:30 AM.
Qiao Sang, carrying a backpack with Lu Bao inside and holding Ya Bao, arrived beside a landmark Pet statue at Yu Liandun University.
Three minutes later, Charles and a brown-haired girl walked over side by side.
They were all carrying backpacks that looked like they had super large capacities.
“Gan Gan…”
Ghost Sense saw its Yu Beast Master and instinctively wanted to float over, but then remembered its mission and restrained itself, making no move.
“Let me introduce you, this is Carol from the Training Department,” Charles said with a smile.
“Hello,” Carol extended her hand.
“Hello,” Qiao Sang smiled and shook her hand.
“This is Qiao Sang from the Beast Taming Department,” Charles said.
Carol glanced at Ya Bao and said:
“I’ve heard of you; you’re only a freshman, yet you’ve already trained two General-level Pets.”
Am I already that famous…? Qiao Sang was in a good mood, then thought of something and asked:
“Just the three of us?”
“Just the three of us,” Charles looked at the watch on his wrist and said, “It’s getting late, let’s set off now.”
“Where is the destination?” Qiao Sang asked.
Charles smiled: “Mount Bazhi.”
Mount Bazhi? Qiao Sang had no reaction.
She wasn’t familiar with Super Dormant Star; after this period of study, at most, she only knew the difference between the Upper Tenth District, Middle Ten Districts, and Lower Tenth District, as well as some basic information about the Pets here.
Charles completely disregarded the possibility of Qiao Sang’s “ignorance.” Seeing that her expression didn’t change at all upon hearing the words “Mount Bazhi,” he couldn’t help but secretly admire her.
As expected of the unprecedented prodigy of the Beast Taming Department, to remain so calm upon hearing that they were going to the dwelling place of the Royal-level wild Pet, Earth Land Two Dragons.
