Chapter 1033: Still Not Surrendering?
Qiao Sang's mind flashed with the information on Abyssal Bite, and he humbly asked:
"How do I practice this?"
"First, you need to channel Dark-type energy into your fangs", Migala explained effortlessly. "Then try to create a shadow. This can be difficult for familiars whose primary attribute isn't Dark-type, but don't worry. You can buy some Dark-type stimulation potions and apply them to your fangs. This will help with the initial practice of Abyssal Bite."
Having a teacher by his side was truly convenient; he didn't even need to search the internet for help. Qiao Sang reflected on this and asked another question:
"Which Dark-type stimulation potion has the best effect?"
Migala thought for a moment and replied:
"There's one called Malice Elixir. It works well. If you buy it from the Imperial Beastmaster Academy, you can usually get a bottle for 1 credit."
Such a straightforward potion name... Qiao Sang asked:
"What's the market price outside?"
"About 50,000 Union Coins", Migala said.
Qiao Sang blurted out, "Then I'll just buy it outside."
Migala didn't say anything in response.
The credits from the Imperial Beastmaster Academy could be exchanged for things unavailable outside. For students who weren't short on money, if something could be bought with cash outside, they generally wouldn't waste their credits, even if it was just 1 credit.
After seeing Qiao Sang generously purchase the S-Class Nether Chrysanthemum, she knew he was also someone who wasn't short on money.
...
High in the sky.
On a plane bound for Eagaria.
Qiao Sang sat in a spacious business-class seat, wearing an eye mask.
Fate Spirit had made a prediction for the next destination, and it wasn't clear how long the journey would take—anywhere from a few months to possibly even years.
Treasure Seeker had absorbed a large amount of energy. According to the hospital's tests, it could reach the late Commander Rank, or even the peak. If that was the case, this trip to Eagaria should allow Treasure Seeker to evolve.
During this time, Steel Treasure could learn Abyssal Bite, and he could also use his credits to exchange for some necessary items.
The last time he bonded with Qingbao, the Dean had promised he could exchange for any item, but he hadn't decided yet. If he couldn't make up his mind, he could ask Teacher Mikara for advice; she knew far more good things than he did.
There was also little Tinglong. It was said that the Imperial Beastmaster Academy had a study that could determine how long it would take for a Beast Companion Egg to hatch. He could try it out to have a better idea.
As he was thinking, the announcement came over the intercom:
"Dear passengers, we are about to arrive in Eagaria..."
Qiao Sang took off his eye mask and looked out the small window, gazing down at the myriad lights below and the occasional Mystic Rift.
Eagaria was indeed too dangerous. The Mystic Rifts were more numerous than in Xi Han City of the Ten Ghost Cities, and there was no completely safe place.
In the Zhitia Region, as long as you didn't go to the Ten Ghost Cities, you could at least be safe in other areas. However, that was also good. More Mystic Rifts meant more opportunities. Remember, as long as you defeated the familiars that emerged from the Mystic Rifts, the school would award you the corresponding credits... Qiao Sang watched the city lights drawing closer, his thoughts wandering.
The plane landed smoothly, and Qiao Sang immediately summoned Fangy and the others.
As they walked, the number of people turning to look at him was remarkably high, nearly 80% or more, with passersby frequently glancing over, a reaction that was unusual even in a metropolis like this where familiars of all shapes and sizes were a common sight.
He wore a simple T-shirt and a casual ponytail, with no luxury items on him. The only thing that set him apart and showcased his wealth was Fangy and the others.
The first time he came to Eagaria, he didn't get this much attention... Qiao Sang thought for a moment and concluded:
It seems many people in Eagaria watched the Hollow Region Tournament, and most of them became fans of Treasure Seeker. Judging by their reactions, they were looking at him mainly because of Treasure Seeker.
“Xunxun~”
Treasure Seeker noticed the gazes around him and couldn’t help but puff out his chest, striking his most confident pose.
Migala frowned slightly and said,
“Something’s not right. Once we’re out, we’ll immediately teleport away.”
To prevent passengers from evading security checks or skipping tickets, Eagaria’s airport did not allow teleportation or Spatial Shifts inside. They could only do so once they were outside.
Qiao Sang was taken aback but didn’t doubt her. She nodded and said,
“Okay.”
But she couldn’t help but ask,
“What’s wrong?”
“These people are filled with hostility,” Migala said gravely.
“Seven of them have secretly called the police.”
She paused and glanced at Treasure Seeker subtly.
“The target of their calls is the Ghost Ring King.”
Qiao Sang: “!!!”
Treasure Seeker: “!!!”
Qiao Sang immediately opened her hearing, and the surrounding sounds flooded into her ears:
“This must be the Ghost Ring King.”
“No doubt about it, the golden Ring and hair, it’s a Variant Ghost Ring King.”
“Who’s that with it?”
“Probably its Beastmaster.”
“Oh my gosh, I always thought it was a Wild Familiar, but it turns out it has a Beastmaster. So, all those things were done at its Beastmaster’s command?”
“I don’t get it. Why would the Ghost Ring King’s Beastmaster make it steal students’ homework?”
“Or maybe it was the Beastmaster who made it strip Olson Velasquez?”
“Hey, Police Station? I’ve spotted the Ghost Ring King at the airport…”
“Is that really the wanted Ghost Ring King? Should we go for it? I remember the bounty is 1 million Union Coins.”
“Don’t be rash. The Ghost Ring King is a Champion-level familiar, not something we can handle.”
“Why give it to the police? Give it to Olson Velasquez! He’s offering a bounty several times higher than the wanted notice!”
The ground seemed to split open!
Damn, it wasn’t because they recognized her from the Regional Tournament through Treasure Seeker. They mistook Treasure Seeker for another wanted Ghost Ring King! Qiao Sang’s lips twitched, and she lowered her voice,
“People probably mistook Treasure Seeker for another wanted Ghost Ring King. I think we can explain it when the time comes.”
“Xunxun?!”
Treasure Seeker took a step back, as if he had been dealt a heavy blow.
“They won’t listen to your explanation,” Migala said calmly. “They’ll just catch the Ghost Ring King and take it to the police station before they have time to listen.”
That made sense. If they believed it was a wanted criminal, they would naturally catch it first and confirm later at the police station… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.
She had heard this from the teachers who had checked Fangy and the others. She had thought Treasure Seeker was a Variant Familiar and wouldn’t be mistaken, but it turned out the wanted Ghost Ring King was also a Variant Familiar, with the same golden color as Treasure Seeker, and it hadn’t been caught yet…
Suddenly, a semi-transparent Barrier enveloped the area.
Qiao Sang’s thoughts came to an abrupt halt, and she stopped in her tracks.
A black-haired, black-eyed woman walked up to the Barrier and said coldly,
“Ghost Ring King, you have the nerve to show your face so openly after being wanted. You’re out of luck today. Surrender now and come with me to the police station!”
Qiao Sang: “…”
Treasure Seeker: “…”
Ya Ya: “???” (End of Chapter)
