Chapter 88: This is 5 million!

Gone was the narrow mountain path, and before Qiao Sang’s eyes was a large, open green area.

Her gaze immediately caught sight of two wild Pets.

On the grass, a Lijian Sparrow was chasing an Anrong Worm.

A normal-sized Lijian Sparrow is about 14 centimeters, but the one before her was plump and large, clearly overfed.

It looked about 25 centimeters, its body mostly grape-grayish-brown, its head chestnut-brown, with a black stripe running from its head to the tip of its tail.

Its beak appeared particularly long and sharp for its body size.

Lijian Sparrows are gregarious Pets, and even if there weren’t many on the mountain, there must be others of its kind nearby.

Qiao Sang didn’t think of going up to battle these two wild Pets.

A Flying-type Pet not flying but chasing a slow-moving Bug-type Pet on the ground, even deliberately lagging behind as if unable to catch up, clearly indicated they knew each other and were playing.

She also didn’t want to be the bad guy when others were having a good time.

The Lijian Sparrow, currently on a diet, sensed Qiao Sang’s presence.

Seeing that it was brought by the Magnetic Armored Rat mother and child, it paid no heed and turned its head to continue its great weight-loss endeavor.

After covering half the distance through this area, the Magnetic Armored Rat’s mother stopped.

“Ci ci.”

It pointed to three trees in the area that still had half-green bao li fruit on them and chirped.

Qiao Sang looked at the scene before her and could no longer move her feet.

This type of fruit is called bao li fruit.

After eating it, there are no special effects; it just makes one meal equivalent to three.

If one is short on funds and cannot afford to raise a Pet, they can buy bao li fruit, ensuring that after a Pet eats one a day, it will not want to eat anything else.

Of course, this is only effective for Pets below High Level.

Research indicates that once a Pet reaches High Level, it needs to eat three bao li fruit a day to be effective, and a General-level Pet needs to eat six.

However, even so, many Yu Beast Masters choose to buy bao li fruit for their Pets to save money.

As a millionaire, Qiao Sang certainly wasn’t stuck because she saw bao li fruit.

She stared stiffly at the huge black and silver figure in front of her.

Who can tell her why there’s a General-level Silver Tail Sea Serpent on Huangming Mountain?!

Under the middle bao li fruit tree, a giant snake-like Pet, about four meters long, was coiled; its front three-quarters were black, while the remaining tail end was a cold silver.

As the third evolutionary form of the Short-tailed Snake, Qiao Sang was not unfamiliar with it.

The Short-tailed Snake’s first evolutionary form is only the Long-tailed Snake, and its second evolution can only be into the Silver Tail Snake.

However, the third evolutionary form from the Silver Tail Snake has two states.

One is the Poisonous Black Python, a pure Poison-type Pet, and the other is the Water-Poison dual-type Silver Tail Sea Serpent.

The Poisonous Black Python is the normal evolutionary form of the Silver Tail Snake.

But to evolve into a Silver Tail Sea Serpent, two conditions must be met.

First, it must be in the sea, and during evolution, it must hold a Poison Dewdrop in its mouth; neither can be missing.

This is absolutely not a Pet that should appear on Huangming Mountain!

Taking advantage of the Silver Tail Sea Serpent not opening its eyes, Qiao Sang picked up the Fire Fang Dog, who was still curiously staring at the tree, and tiptoed back.

“Ya?”

The Fire Fang Dog looked confused.

Shouldn’t they be going forward?

The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost quietly drank its milk on Qiao Sang’s head.

It only wanted milk and had no interest in fruit.

The Magnetic Armored Rat mother and child watched Qiao Sang walk in the opposite direction, paused, then followed.

Only when she retreated to the side of the still playing Lijian Sparrow and Anrong Worm did Qiao Sang feel safe.

It was very abnormal to encounter a General-level Pet without a Yu Beast Master nearby on Huangming Mountain.

The Magnetic Armored Rat showed no abnormality when it saw the Silver Tail Sea Serpent, indicating that the Magnetic Armored Rat knew of its existence.

But this Silver Tail Sea Serpent could absolutely not be a wild Pet.

Not to mention whether there was a Poison Dewdrop item, just the condition of being in the sea alone means there’s no sea, let alone Huangming Mountain, in the entire Hanggang City.

She hadn’t had time to think much just now, but recalling the Silver Tail Sea Serpent’s appearance now, it was indeed very strange.

Its face was dark, so nothing could be seen, but the silver tail part of its lower body had three very deep, untreated, festering wounds.

For a Short-tailed Snake to evolve into a Silver Tail Sea Serpent, its Yu Beast Master could not possibly be without money for Healing.

Stepping back, even if they were temporarily strapped for cash, this was a General-level Pet; a normal person would take out a loan to try and heal it.

And there was no Yu Beast Master next to it.

Abnormal.

Extremely abnormal.

Countless thoughts instantly filled Qiao Sang’s mind.

After a moment of contemplation, she pulled out her phone and chose to call the Patrol Department.

Two seconds later, Qiao Sang’s face fell.

No signal, actually…

Although Huangming Mountain is a mountain, it’s not the kind of desolate place where no one usually goes; occasionally, people choose to hike, watch the sunrise, and exercise.

Ye Jingwen had even posted on her Moments when she climbed the mountain before.

She thought for a while, then picked up her phone again and called the Police Station.

Two seconds later, Qiao Sang panicked.

Why couldn’t she call the Police Station?!

It’s important to know that generally, even without cell signal, one can call the police because it’s an emergency call, and the transmission application has high priority.

The signal here was intentionally blocked, Qiao Sang immediately concluded.

The inexplicable appearance of an injured Silver Tail Sea Serpent without a Yu Beast Master, combined with the blocked signal, two abnormal things together, made Qiao Sang sense danger.

She wanted to go down the mountain.

“Ci?”

At this moment, the Magnetic Armored Rat’s mother next to her called out in confusion.

Still having a bit of curiosity, Qiao Sang asked, “Have you seen the Yu Beast Master of that Silver Tail Sea Serpent just now?”

“Ci.” The Magnetic Armored Rat’s mother shook its head.

Qiao Sang had nothing else to ask.

Just as she turned to go down the mountain, the Magnetic Armored Rat she had saved pointed to the left.

“Ci ci.”

“You know?” Qiao Sang was stunned.

“Ci.”

The Magnetic Armored Rat nodded.

It had seen him when it secretly met its lover.

Although Qiao Sang was very curious about what kind of Yu Beast Master the Silver Tail Sea Serpent had, and why it wasn’t given Healing and was brought to the mountain, there were too many suspicious points.

She decided it was best to leave first.

“I’m leaving now, I don’t want the fruit. I hope we’ll have a chance to meet again,” Qiao Sang said to the Magnetic Armored Rat mother and child.

After saying that, Qiao Sang hugged the Fire Fang Dog and pushed aside the bushes she had come through.

When she came out and looked, she saw the Magnetic Armored Rat mother and child staring at her with wide eyes.

Qiao Sang was stunned for a long time, then gave an awkward laugh and quickly pushed aside the bushes behind her.

What appeared before her was still the Magnetic Armored Rat mother and child.

“Ci?”

“Ci?”

The Magnetic Armored Rat mother and child both tilted their heads in the same direction at the same time.

Ghost hitting the wall!

Qiao Sang completely panicked.

“Ya!”

The Fire Fang Dog jumped out of Qiao Sang’s arms and looked around vigilantly.

Qiao Sang forced herself to calm down.

Any strange occurrences in this world are caused by extraordinary creatures.

The current scenario, whether it’s an illusion cast by a Superpower System Pet, a mirror space, or a dream or ghost hitting the wall by a Ghost-type Pet, all are possible.

There is also a not-low-level Superpower System or Ghost-type Pet on this mountain.

A Pet capable of casting skills of this level absolutely cannot be a wild Pet found in a rural town.

“Where is the Yu Beast Master of that Silver Tail Sea Serpent? Take me there,” Qiao Sang said.

“Ci.”

The Magnetic Armored Rat sensed Qiao Sang’s seriousness and also became serious.

Seven minutes later.

Qiao Sang hid behind a tree, staring in shock at the pale-faced man lying in the grass with his eyes closed.

Holy crap!

This is 5 million!
