Chapter 189: Refresh Elixir
Chapter 189: Refresh Elixir
Qiao Sang didn't hesitate and agreed.
Training alone might feel monotonous and uninteresting for a familiar.
But when two familiars train together, they can find the process more enjoyable, which can serve as a great motivation for those who struggle to stay motivated.
While Fangy isn't lacking in enthusiasm for training, Treasure Seeker certainly is...
Recently, every time it returns home, it tends to circle around the Virtual Helmet, its eyes filled with longing, almost as much as when it was a newborn and hungry for milk.
By helping Fangy train its Anti-Dizziness skill, Treasure Seeker can not only increase its proficiency in Psychic Power but also divert its attention away from the Virtual Helmet. It's a win-win-win situation.
"Ya!"
Fangy nodded at Treasure Seeker, signaling it to spin as hard as it could.
In its mind, it imagined itself looking much more stylish than the pink familiar in the video.
Especially for the final pose, it had already thought of the perfect stance.
"Let's start slow, okay?" Qiao Sang suggested.
Fangy gave a look that said, "This is a piece of cake."
"Ya Ya!"
Just spinning around, how hard could it be?
"Xun Xun~"
Treasure Seeker nodded in agreement.
Spinning around is a breeze for Big Brother Fangy.
"Alright, you two train. Take a break if you get tired." Qiao Sang said, then picked up her phone from the coffee table and sat on the sofa, looking down to search for the forum login.
After hesitating for a moment, she opened the private message page with "School's Out, Sun's Out."
If it's true that Crown Cat left home because it was unwilling to practice Farting, she felt a 0.05% responsibility. It would be more reassuring to ask if Crown Cat has returned.
She swore it wasn't to find out if she still had a chance at the 100 million.
While Qiao Sang logged into the forum, Treasure Seeker watched Fangy with excitement in its eyes.
"Xun!"
Let's start!
"Ya!"
Fangy nodded.
Come on!
Treasure Seeker extended its two Short Toes and channeled energy within its body.
Under the control of Psychic Power, Fangy began to spin.
At first, the speed was slow, and Fangy looked quite relaxed.
"Ya."
After just a couple of rotations, it called out to Treasure Seeker to speed up.
"Xun~"
Treasure Seeker had an expression that said, "Of course."
Then it increased its energy output dramatically, and a bright blue light enveloped not just its Short Toes but its entire body.
"Ya!!"
Fangy felt a blur in its vision, and its brain buzzed. It let out an instinctive cry.
Qiao Sang was startled by the sound and looked up.
She saw Fangy as a spinning blur of white and red.
"Treasure Seeker, maybe slow down a bit. Fangy looks like it's about to pass out", Qiao Sang said hesitantly.
Treasure Seeker was panting heavily, its two extended Short Toes trembling slightly.
It was a low-level familiar, and even with its Psychic Power proficiency at mastery, its energy reserves were limited. Using Psychic Power to its current maximum had rapidly drained its energy.
"Xun..." Treasure Seeker's eyes were filled with determination and trust in Fangy.
Just spinning around, how could Big Brother Fangy not handle it!
Indeed, with Fangy's determination, practicing spinning should be fine, but the speed was just too fast, making it hard to even see its head... Qiao Sang couldn't help but ask again, "Fangy, isn't this speed too fast?"
"Fangyfangy"
Fangy's voice, distorted by the rapid spinning, echoed through the living room.
It... can... do... it...
Fangy wanted to cry. Her Little Brother trusted her so much; how could she say she couldn't do it?
Qiao Sang relaxed and lowered her head to start typing.
【I just saw your message. I don’t know if you’ve found your Crown Cat yet.】
After editing the message and confirming it was fine, she clicked send.
A large red exclamation mark appeared.
Failed to send.
Qiao Sang then remembered that she had blocked him.
Just as she was about to remove him from the blacklist,
“Xun!”
Treasure Seeker’s cry made Qiao Sang quickly lift her head.
When she looked up, she saw Fangy swaying from side to side, her eyes full of stars.
Three seconds later.
“Thud.”
Fangy collapsed.
Qiao Sang: “……!”
……
At 7:02 PM.
Qiao Sang, riding Fangy with Treasure Seeker perched on her head, set off for the nearest mall.
Fangy walked with a dejected look.
“It’s okay, everyone starts like this. Let’s buy a few bottles of Refresh Elixir. When you get dizzy from training, a bottle will make you feel better,” Qiao Sang comforted.
“Xun xun…”
Treasure Seeker, lying on his Beastmaster’s head, weakly agreed.
Although he hadn’t used his mastery-level Psychic Power for long, it had still drained a lot of his energy.
With the comforting words of Qiao Sang and Treasure Seeker, Fangy’s mood quickly improved.
The nearest mall to Changan Road was five kilometers away on Huanle Street.
Under the neon lights, the mall at night looked vibrant and colorful. In the center of the square, a musical fountain was surrounded by five Powerful Ducks wearing bow ties and playing violins.
In rhythm with the music, Water Shrimps occasionally leaped from the circular pool, spraying water columns of varying heights.
The place was bustling with people.
To be honest, since the Familiar Marathon, Qiao Sang hadn’t seen so many people in a long time…
Staying low-key, she put Fangy into the Beastmaster Codex in a quiet spot outside the square.
…
Half an hour later.
Qiao Sang walked out of a potion store on the third floor of the mall.
She had bought 10 bottles of Refresh Elixir, spending 9,900 Union Coins.
Although it was nearly 10,000, she wasn’t worried. After all, she still had a seven-figure balance in her bank account.
Qiao Sang went to the second floor of the mall, intending to buy three cups of milk tea to share with Fangy and Treasure Seeker on the way back.
Just as she was about to join the queue, someone tapped her shoulder.
Qiao Sang turned around to see a fair-skinned girl exclaiming excitedly, “It’s really you! I thought I might have mistaken you.”
Since not much time had passed and her memory had improved, Qiao Sang immediately recognized her as the girl who had argued with Shi Gaofeng at the school gate.
She’s quite social… Qiao Sang managed her expression and smiled, “Are you here alone?”
“I’m not here to play,” the girl said, a bit embarrassed. “I’m here to work. The one-star review for the Phantom Water Sprite is still there, so I can’t take on high-paying, easy missions yet. I had to bring it to a clothing store in the mall to work as a model.”
Qiao Sang understood. The Phantom Water Sprite’s Transformation Trait was not only popular among students and office workers but also in clothing stores.
Some people bought clothes for loved ones who weren’t around, unsure if they would fit. If a clothing store had a Phantom Water Sprite, it could transform based on photos and reported height and weight, helping customers choose.
Others felt a difference between their mirror image and their real self, making it hard to decide on clothes. Having a Phantom Water Sprite in the store was very helpful.
However, working in a clothing store was tiring and paid less than other missions.
