Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 991 - 801: It Must Be That Flute-Playing Guy (Two in One)
Chapter 991: Chapter 801: It Must Be That Flute-Playing Guy (Two in One)
[Chen Shu, 34 years old, C-rank Beast Tamer, Pet Beast Shadow Demon, Double-headed Gorillagon, Nile Crocotta, Saintly Mushroom...]
[Fulanri Dicaprio, 36 years old, C-rank Beast Tamer, Pet Beast Ugly Karon, Fierce Cycle Eagle, Fighting Horn Rabbit, Breather Grass...]
[Pral Paret, 31 years old, C-rank Beast Tamer, Pet Beast Chaos Magnet, Storm Owl, Snow Gilalei, Sand Tomb Turtle...]
[Flirting Tatter, 30 years old, C-rank Beast Tamer, Pet Beast Water Carrier Duck, Radio Wave Toad, Agatelize, Wooden Lotus Soldier...]
[Leo Diesel, 27 years old, C-rank Beast Tamer, Pet Beast Echo Chiming, Fire Dance Butterfly, Malice Specter, Little Ferry Dragon...]
All of them are C-rank Beast Tamers... As Qiao Sang reviewed the profiles of the five sent over by Heidi, her gaze lingered on the photos of Pral Paret and Leo Diesel, recognizing them as the two individuals she had just encountered in the waiting lounge.
They’re clearly here for Adinixi... Qiao Sang wasn’t surprised at all.
She took a deep breath, gathered her focus, and began searching for detailed information on their Pet Beasts.
Although her recent studies had given her a general understanding of these Pet Beasts’ ranks and attributes, she didn’t know much about their specific traits, weaknesses, and habits.
Two members of this group had already revealed themselves. Since they knew she was here, they would undoubtedly make their move before she boarded the plane.
Faced with opponents who could attack at any moment, it was essential to gather intelligence beforehand to respond effectively.
Such preparation had become a habit for Qiao Sang from her competition days.
Even though the airport had arranged a private VIP room for her and stationed her Pet Beast outside for guard duty, she couldn’t rely solely on others. To prepare for any eventuality, she had to act cautiously... Qiao Sang thought to herself as she reviewed the files.
She began with Shadow Demon, examining one entry after another.
Soon, she came across Echo Chiming.
[Echo Chiming, Psychic Series General-level Pet Beast, possesses a voice as melodious as singing, though its sound can inflict pain or hallucinations on its opponents. Because its size is even smaller than typical low-level Pet Beasts, it often goes unnoticed. Beast Tamers usually train it to master Barrier-type skills to isolate disturbances and operate covertly.]
Leo’s Pet Beast—it belonged to the man who had approached her earlier. No wonder she hadn’t heard anything from inside the restroom earlier; it was probably Echo Chiming using its sound-isolation technique, reminiscent of the skill her spy mentor’s Pet Beast had utilized back in the day... freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Just as she speculated, Qiao Sang’s ears twitched as she heard the sound of footsteps moving from near to far, the Pet Beast stationed outside was now leaving.
Suddenly, all the lights in the room went out.
The entire space plunged into darkness.
"Ya!"
Yaobao, who had been drowsy, instantly perked up, alertly scanning the surroundings.
Qiao Sang felt a chill as she quickly formed a Seal Gesture with her hands, preparing to summon Xun Xun and have it use Spatial Movement to escape the room.
The airport’s guardians turned out to be less reliable than expected. She had thought noise from outside or a fight might tip her off, but instead, they had left directly.
Who knows what persuaded them to move away...
The adversaries clearly knew she was in this room. Walking out the door meant the likelihood of being ambushed was high. The safest option now was to use Spatial Movement to leave.
Otherwise, she would remain in the light while her enemies stayed hidden in the shadows—a dangerous disadvantage.
"Hehe~"
Just as Qiao Sang formed her Seal Gesture, a distinct and melodious call reverberated.
Invisible soundwaves rippled through the air.
Instantly, pain coursed through her entire body.
Echo Chiming... Qiao Sang immediately recognized the culprit behind the attack. Enduring the pain, her hands didn’t falter in performing the Seal Gesture.
The defensive training she had undergone wasn’t in vain.
The pain was excruciating, but still bearable.
Soon, an orange-yellow Star Array illuminated the room, and Xun Xun emerged from the array.
Meanwhile, a dark shadow suddenly burst out from the wall, splitting rapidly and surging toward Qiao Sang like a frenzied tide.
"Go!"
"Xun Xun!"
Xun Xun’s eyes glowed blue.
In the next instant, Qiao Sang and Yaobao vanished from their original location.
The dark shadow struck empty space, glancing around as if searching for signs. Not finding any, it merged like flowing water, seeping through the doorframe and writhing briefly in a particular direction—akin to shaking its head in frustration.
Then, it continued slithering forward.
In the corridor, the shadow passed by the returning Seeker Beast.
[Anomaly detected, anomaly detected, energy anomaly detected.]
"Cha-cha."
The Seeker Beast lowered its gaze to examine the shadow still flowing forward.
