Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 787: Phantom beast Adenix (add to Leng Huanzi Alliance Leader)
Pilit was first stunned when he saw Qiao Sang’s action, then frowned slightly and asked, “Why did you recall Ice Aipalu?”
He was all too familiar with the action of recalling a Pet.
Although Ice Aipalu didn’t disappear before his eyes, Qiao Sang’s abrupt action, combined with Flame Qilu and Ghost Ring King still being outside, clearly indicated that she had recalled Ice Aipalu.
This action, combined with Qiao Sang’s awakened state, made Pilit somewhat worried.
Only a little over an hour had passed, and such a good opportunity to soak in the energy pool—he believed Qiao Sang wouldn’t recall Ice Aipalu so early unless something truly went wrong.
Qiao Sang paused for a few seconds, suppressing the nauseous feeling, and said, “Lu Bao has finished absorbing the energy.”
Pilit: “???”
Finished absorbing? That shouldn’t be…
Pilit never expected that answer.
Ice Aipalu should still be in the early General-level stage, and Ice Aipalu can awaken Ultra-level skills through the awakening stone. Its talent should logically be among the top, so it shouldn’t have absorbed energy to the point of saturation so quickly…
At this moment, a Staff member walked over and confirmed:
“Miss Qiao Sang, the security personnel just contacted me and said Ice Aipalu disappeared from the energy pool. Did you recall her?”
There was actually surveillance in the energy pool, so the scene of her being force-fed insects…
No, no, no, calm down, others don’t know that bird was her…
Qiao Sang calmly “Mm"ed.
“Do you need to rest now, or shall I continue to take you to the next place for a tour and experience?” The Staff member noticed that the black-haired girl’s complexion was not very good and asked.
“I want to rest for a bit,” Qiao Sang said.
“Alright, please follow me, I’ll take you to the rest area,” the Staff member said respectfully and then began to lead the way.
On the way, Pilit finally couldn’t help but confirm:
“Are you sure Ice Aipalu has absorbed enough energy?”
“Yes,” Qiao Sang was still in a state of not having fully adjusted.
She opened her mouth, wanting to reveal that the invariable stone had lit up: “Lu Bao…”
But as soon as she spoke, Qiao Sang’s heart skipped a beat, and her mind instantly cleared up a lot.
Even if the energy was fully absorbed, without emotional excitement and a temperature of minus 60 degrees, the invariable stone couldn’t possibly change.
If she told the truth, Teacher Pilit would immediately realize that something was abnormal.
Qiao Sang paused, then continued, “Lu Bao was in a lot of pain at the time, and Healing Light was almost continuously being used without stopping.”
Pilit was silent for a moment, then comforted her, “Ice Aipalu hasn’t evolved for long, so it’s inevitable that she absorbs less energy. You don’t need to worry too much; this kind of pain won’t happen again after she leaves the energy pool.”
No wonder Qiao Sang’s complexion wasn’t very good just now. He didn’t expect Ice Aipalu could only absorb for such a short time…
Healing Light can indeed restore one’s state, but Ice Aipalu was constantly soaking in the energy pool, which meant that as soon as she finished Healing, the next second, she would feel pain again.
If Ice Aipalu really persisted in casting several waves of Healing Light in there, that’s already pretty good…
Under the guidance of the Staff, the two arrived at a private lounge.
As soon as Qiao Sang stepped in, she wanted to form hand seals to summon Lu Bao.
But it was her first time using the invariable stone on a Pet, and she wasn’t sure if the invariable stone on Lu Bao’s neck was still glowing.
If it was still glowing, Teacher Pilit would definitely realize something was wrong.
Moreover, Lu Bao’s body size in the energy pool was its true size, so when summoned, it would definitely be that size. The lounge wouldn’t fit her, and even a more private place like the restroom wouldn’t be big enough for Lu Bao to stay in…
When it came to the Gold Finger, Qiao Sang inevitably thought more deeply.
She kind of wanted to go back…
When the Staff brought coffee and a plate of exquisite pastries, Qiao Sang spoke:
“Teacher, should we go back now?”
Pilit was stunned: “Aren’t you going to visit more?”
This was free…
Qiao Sang shook her head: “My purpose in coming here was for the energy pool. Now that the matter is settled, I have other things to do when I go back.”
Her will was truly firm. Facing the temptation of free play in Ita Valley, she could remain so unmoved…
Pilit secretly admired her in his heart, stood up, and said, “Then let’s go back.”
The Staff member hurried forward and said:
“We still have many other projects here. Are you really not going to experience them anymore?”
He was assigned specifically to receive her, and if management knew that the distinguished guest he was hosting was leaving so early, he would definitely be categorized as incompetent.
“No,” Qiao Sang stood up and shook her head.
“Then we’ll save the experience quota for you. Please be sure to come back and have a good experience next time,” the Staff member said hastily.
The higher-ups had specifically instructed that Miss Qiao Sang should ideally be unable to resist this place.
Although he didn’t have time to watch the competition, other distinguished guests who came here had discussed the champion of the Beastmaster Star Tournament.
The most discussed topic was the Healing Light of her Pet named Ice Aipalu.
Today, they had intercepted many distinguished guests who wanted to come forward and strike up a conversation.
Although the higher-ups didn’t explicitly say so, he knew their intention was to give Miss Qiao Sang a wonderful experience here, so she would come often in the future.
This way, other important figures seeking Healing Light would come here by reputation.
So, with this decision, the higher-ups would definitely not blame him.
“Well done,” sure enough, the praise from the higher-ups came through his earpiece.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Before Qiao Sang could speak, the little Xiao Xunbao beside her nodded vigorously, indicating that they would definitely come next time.
Qiao Sang glanced at Xiao Xunbao, then withdrew her gaze and smiled:
“Okay.”
…
Villa.
As soon as Qiao Sang entered the living room, she formed hand seals.
Two orange-yellow star arrays lit up.
She couldn’t tell if it was an illusion, but she always felt that the orange-yellow star arrays were a bit brighter than before.
Soon, Lu Bao and Steel Treasure appeared simultaneously within the star arrays.
The invariable stone wasn’t glowing, so it seemed this thing wouldn’t always glow…
Qiao Sang observed Lu Bao’s state and the invariable stone, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked:
“Lu Bao, are you okay?”
“Ice Ai…”
Before being recalled to the yu beast codex, Lu Bao had just cast a Healing Light, and combined with the yu beast codex’s own Healing effects, Lu Bao’s excruciating pain had already disappeared. However, she let out a cry of displeasure, indicating that her absorption time was too short and she hadn’t absorbed all the energy in the energy pool.
If you keep absorbing, the invariable stone’s level might need to be upgraded to a higher one…
Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said gently, “You’ve already absorbed to the highest level of the General-level stage. The energy in that energy pool is probably enough for several General-level Pets to absorb.”
“Ice Ai.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Bao’s eyes lit up.
Qiao Sang was present at the scene and understood the specific situation, adding, “The reason you absorbed so quickly is because you actively circulated energy for absorption, while others were simply soaking in it as if it were a hot spring.”
“Ice Ai.”
Lu Bao immediately perked up, her eyes brightened even more, and her tail unconsciously wagged.
“Wait!” Qiao Sang’s expression suddenly became serious.
Seeing this, Lu Bao unconsciously tensed up.
“Did your body get bigger?” Qiao Sang asked hesitantly.
She didn’t notice it when she was a bird; everything looked big. Now that her usual visual senses had returned, looking at Lu Bao, she realized something was off.
Standing next to Steel Treasure, she didn’t feel as small as usual.
“Steel Slash.”
Steel Treasure glanced at Lu Bao, nodded, indicating that she had indeed gotten bigger.
“Ice Ai…”
Lu Bao breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought it was going to be something else…
“Ya Ya…”
Ya Bao stared at Lu Bao from the side, and for some reason, her eyes lit up, revealing an eager expression.
…
At the same time.
Ita Valley.
The Staff member who routinely checked the energy pool every day looked at everything before him with a blank expression, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
The energy pool’s water… how did it all become clear?!
He clearly remembered that today’s notification only said one General-level Pet had entered!
…
Midnight, 12:02 AM.
Bedroom.
Lu Bao’s level indeed reached the million cap…
Qiao Sang’s consciousness withdrew from the yu beast codex and returned to reality.
At this moment, her phone beside her vibrated.
Qiao Sang picked up her phone and found it was a text message from Virginia, the Dean of the News Academy:
[Sending you a piece of news, the Illusion Beast Ardenih has appeared in the 30th District.]
Illusion Beast Ardenih?
Before Qiao Sang could react, the other party sent another text message:
[You probably haven’t seen our Super Dormant Star’s Illusion Beast before. Are you interested in going to see it?]
This, the 30th District is so big, can an Illusion Beast just be found by looking for it…
It was false to say she wasn’t tempted. Qiao Sang replied:
[Is there some special tool for finding Aodinihi?]
She remembered that when she was in the Hollow Region, she had auctioned off the Qingfeng Compass, which was said to be able to find the legendary Pet Qingqingni.
Dean Virginia quickly replied:
[No]
Qiao Sang: “…”
Happy 520!
