Chapter 1030: Soul Ferry Cat
Chapter 1030: Soul Ferry Cat
Speaking, he raised his hand and glanced at the time on his wristwatch.
"It's about ten minutes until the Prediction."
"Wuwu."
Bao Wu Wu perked up, floating forward to the spot where it had appeared before, eyes filled with anticipation.
"Did Bao Wu Wu find you any treasures this time?" Gao Renhe asked casually.
"Wuwu..."
Bao Wu Wu's body stiffened.
"Surprisingly, it did", Qiao Sang said. "In Lost Town, it found a Mask Puppet. If it weren't for that Mask Puppet, we wouldn't have left Lost Town safely."
Bao Wu Wu stared in disbelief.
As a researcher, Gao Renhe naturally knew the capabilities of a Mask Puppet and couldn't help but reflect:
"That's indeed a rare familiar."
The two chatted casually, and soon, ten minutes had passed.
Several Mystic Rifts appeared outside the alley, but none appeared inside.
As time went on, Bao Wu Wu's anticipation turned to disappointment, and its entire body seemed to be shrouded in a cloud of gloom.
Gao Renhe sighed.
"Looks like the Mystic Rift didn't appear this time."
Qiao Sang looked at Bao Wu Wu and comforted it:
"Don't worry. If it didn't appear this time, it will next time, or the time after that. The Mystic Rift you're waiting for will definitely show up again."
"Wuwu..."
Bao Wu Wu, with tears in its eyes, floated over and hugged Qiao Sang, sobbing.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker, moved by the emotion, couldn't help but sniffle and wipe its nose.
"Are you going back to Doctor Zhang Tai Dong?" Gao Renhe asked.
Qiao Sang countered, "Why?"
"If you're going back, you can take Bao Wu Wu with you and drop it off", Gao Renhe said. "If not, I can keep it here and send it over when I have time."
"Wuwu!"
Before Qiao Sang could respond, Bao Wu Wu suddenly floated behind her, gripping her clothes tightly.
Migala looked over.
Gao Renhe hesitated.
"You want to stay with her?"
"Wuwu!"
Bao Wu Wu nodded.
Gao Renhe asked again, "You're not going to Doctor Zhang Tai Dong?"
"Wuwu!"
Bao Wu Wu nodded firmly.
Gao Renhe looked at Qiao Sang with a complex expression. "I didn't expect you to have formed such a deep bond with Bao Wu Wu in such a short time."
He paused, his tone slightly sour. "I've brought Bao Wu Wu to find the Mystic Rift so many times, and it's never been this attached to me."
Qiao Sang: "… Neither did I."
Honest to goodness, she hadn't done anything. In such a short time, she had even spent half of it lying in bed.
"Do you want to take Bao Wu Wu with you?" Gao Renhe asked.
At the B-Class Beastmaster level, one could carry an unbonded Beast Companion.
If it were anyone else, taking a Bao Wu Wu that could find Celestial Treasures for free would be a no-brainer, but with Qiao Sang, he wasn't so sure. After all, each of her familiars was so rare, and she had even seen the Mystic Black Ram's eyes.
Qiao Sang looked at Bao Wu Wu and asked seriously:
"Do you really want to stay with me?"
"Wuwu!"
Bao Wu Wu nodded, its eyes filled with determination.
"Even if we can't bond?" Qiao Sang asked again.
"Wuwu!"
Bao Wu Wu nodded firmly.
Qiao Sang was deeply moved. She had never expected Bao Wu Wu to trust her so much in such a short time. She said warmly:
"Then we…"
Before she could finish, Migala suddenly spoke:
"It's appeared."
Qiao Sang froze, then looked up to see the space where Bao Wu Wu had been slowly cracking open, revealing a Mystic Rift.
Gao Renhe exclaimed with surprise:
"This is the Mystic Rift where Bao Wu Wu first appeared!"
As he spoke, Qiao Sang felt a streak of purple light flash past his eyes, and Bao Wu Wu appeared in front of the Mystic Rift.
"Wuwu!"
Bao Wu Wu seemed ready to float right in, but then it paused, as if remembering something. It turned around and waved its claws enthusiastically, then turned back and floated into the Mystic Rift without a second glance, vanishing from sight.
Qiao Sang: "……"
Suddenly, a familiar about twenty centimeters tall, mostly purple with amber eyes and two tails, emerged from the Mystic Rift.
When it saw the humans below, it immediately adopted a wary expression, raising its tails and gathering energy.
Qiao Sang, thinking of Bao Wu Wu, kindly warned:
"I think you should go back now. If the Mystic Rift disappears, you might not be able to return home."
"Dodo."
The two-tailed cat familiar hesitated, the purple energy around its tails dissipating. It nodded at Qiao Sang, then turned and floated back into the Mystic Rift.
The Mystic Rift slowly closed, and space returned to its peaceful state.
Silence fell around them.
Qiao Sang sighed:
"Who would have thought Bao Wu Wu would leave like that, but it's probably for the best. It came here to return home, after all."
No one responded.
Qiao Sang turned to see Teacher Mikara and Gao Renhe staring blankly at the spot where the Mystic Rift had disappeared. Gao Renhe's mouth was wide open, his expression frozen in shock. Qiao Sang couldn't help but ask:
"What's wrong with you two?"
Mikara seemed to come to her senses, her expression extremely complex as she looked at Qiao Sang and said:
"That familiar just now was a Soul Ferry Cat."
Qiao Sang was taken aback for a moment, then his face filled with shock:
"What? A Soul Ferry Cat?!"
...
An hour later.
At the airport.
In the waiting hall.
"I never thought the Soul Ferry Cat everyone was searching for would just appear like that..." Qiao Sang mused.
Mikara was silent for a moment before saying, "I think you have some luck on your side. As they say in Dragon Nation, it's your fortune."
Bond Qingqing Ni saw the eyes of the Mystic Black Ram, and a Soul Ferry Cat just appeared out of nowhere.
Qiao Sang's heart stirred, and he promptly recounted his encounter with the Fortune Seeker in detail.
Mikara was silent for a long time, finally processing the information, and murmured:
"You actually saw a Phantom Beast..."
Hold on, you're missing the point. The focus should be on the Fortune Seeker's ability and my luck... Qiao Sang thought, but he humbly asked:
"Could it be that the Fortune Seeker blessed me, which is why I have such good luck?"
Mikara pondered for a moment and replied:
"That's unlikely. Any ability has a time limit. Even if the Fortune Seeker did bless you, it wouldn't last this long."
She paused and added:
"Luck is also a part of one's strength. Don't overthink it; it's a good thing."
At that moment, the airport's announcement system crackled to life:
"Attention, passengers, please note the boarding announcement. Verify your flight number and gate information, ensure your luggage is properly stowed, and carry all important items with you. When boarding, please return your familiars to the Beastmaster Codex..."
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker heard the announcement and seemed to remember something. It removed its Ring and pulled out a large bag, calling out.
Qiao Sang was taken aback:
"You mean Bao Wu Wu gave this to you?"
"Xunxun~" Treasure Seeker nodded.
