Chapter 254: I Have Something to Tell You
Registration?
Shi Gaofeng was taken aback and turned to Xu Yajie, who was instructing Powerful Duck, and asked, "What do you mean, what did she go to register?"
Xu Yajie thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know, but it's definitely not a familiar."
Shi Gaofeng couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Duh, I could have figured that out myself."
Qiao Sang already had two familiars. Registering a third one was out of the question, even a toddler could figure that out.
Hanggang Beastmaster Center.
Window 10.
Qiao Sang handed over her number slip and ID card and said, "Hello, I'm here to register a familiar."
It had been one minute past the Beastmaster Center's closing time. Normally, the staff could refuse to process any more transactions and pack up to go home.
However, the female staff at Window 10 greeted Qiao Sang with enthusiasm.
Staff members who are so considerate, unwilling to let a client wait for just a minute or two, are usually new to the job, still filled with passion and a sense of novelty.
"Sure."
The staff member smiled as she took the ID card and placed it on the scanner. After smiling all day, her smile was starting to feel a bit stiff, but she managed to maintain it.
The staff member stared at the information displayed on the computer, her mind going blank.
Fifteen years old?
Two familiars?
What did she say again? She wants to register another one?
Qiao Sang had registered two familiars before and knew the process. Without waiting for the staff to speak, she made the hand signs and summoned Aquariana, ready for the confirmation.
A green Star Array lit up outside the window, nearly blinding the staff member.
Actually, a green Star Array wasn't that rare. Not only green, but even the red Star Array, which represents a B-Class Beastmaster, could occasionally be seen in the Beastmaster Center, given the high concentration of Beastmasters.
But a Beastmaster with a green Star Array who was only fifteen years old was quite shocking.
Fifteen years old, just starting out as a Beastmaster, and already with a green Star Array?!
The staff member took a while to regain her composure.
"Hello, please place your familiar on the window for scanning."
One of the job requirements was to recognize all the familiars in the region. If they encountered a familiar from another region or one they didn't recognize, they could use the identifier to confirm it.
With just one glance, the staff member was certain this familiar wasn't from the Yuhua Region.
If there were such a cute familiar in the Yuhua Region, it would have been all over the news.
It certainly wouldn't have gone unnoticed by someone who had memorized the "Comprehensive Guide to Yuhua Region Familiars."
Qiao Sang placed Aquariana on the window.
Aquariana glanced at the human in front of her, then lazily sat down and began licking her right front paw.
The staff member aimed the identifier at the light blue familiar and scanned it.
A holographic screen about five inches tall appeared above the identifier.
At the same time, a mechanical voice announced:
[Aquariana, an endangered Water-Type Basic Familiar from the Ancient Fog Region. The gem on her forehead can emit a magical Healing Light.]
The staff member's eyes widened in shock.
Endangered?!
There are only a handful of them left in the entire world?!
The staff member took a deep breath, suppressing her excitement, and began registering the information.
"Here you go, please take your ID card." The staff member handed the ID card back to Qiao Sang with both hands after completing the registration.
"Thank you." Qiao Sang reached out to take the ID card.
But when she tried to pull it back, it wouldn't budge.
She was puzzled and tried again, but it still wouldn't come loose.
"What's the matter?" Qiao Sang asked, looking up in confusion.
"Sorry." The staff member quickly released her grip and apologized.
"It's fine." Qiao Sang put the ID card in her pocket.
Before she could turn to leave, the staff member hesitated for a moment and finally couldn't resist asking, "I've never seen an endangered familiar before. Could I take a photo?"
"Sure thing." Qiao Sang replied cheerfully.
She was already used to people asking to take photos with her familiar. After all, Fangy was often surrounded by people eager to snap pictures.
Besides, the staff member had helped her with her business even after clocking out, leaving a stellar first impression. Taking a photo was a small request, and there was no reason to refuse.
The staff member excitedly picked up her mobile phone, opened the camera, and snapped a photo of Aquariana, who was still licking her paws.
Then, she seemed to remember something and subtly moved the phone up, capturing the young girl by the window in the shot as well.
A 15-year-old Beastmaster with a Green Star Array, paired with a nearly extinct familiar, was bound to become a big shot someday!
Skyview Manor 1705.
Qiao Sang sat at her desk and skillfully opened her computer to browse posts discussing how to train the Rain Invocation skill.
Though she wasn’t in a rush, Aquariana had been pressing her hard, asking three times within the hour since they got home.
Deciding that she didn’t have any pressing weekend homework, Qiao Sang turned on her computer.
There were quite a few posts about Rain Invocation skills.
After all, Rain Invocation had a wide range of applications, and anyone who mastered it would be in high demand.
Qiao Sang casually clicked on a post and gave it a quick scan.
[Anyone with common sense knows that advanced skills like Rain Invocation should be trained by professionals. Discussing it online will only get you a list of training academies. ]
[You know nothing! I’m broke! I’m broke! Do I have to spell it out for you?]
Qiao Sang felt a pang in her heart and quickly switched to a more popular post, where many netizens were commenting.
[Some idiot suggested taking the familiar to a place where it rains all year round to experience it. I tried it, and three months later, my familiar hadn’t learned Rain Invocation, but I got arthritis. ]
[Don’t even get me started. Another idiot suggested taking the familiar to a place where it’s always dry to push it. I did it, and after half a month, my familiar went from whining to growling, almost biting me. ]
So much for that, Qiao Sang sighed and continued scrolling.
[Once you have the traits of a Shaman, be sincere, and ideally, know how to dance. When you communicate with the heavens, Rain Invocation will surely succeed!]
[Are you having fun, upstairs?]
[To make it rain, you need clouds. I think we should first figure out how to make the familiar form clouds. ]
[I get that. Clouds are formed when mist droplets condense. When there are enough mist droplets, white clouds turn into dark clouds. ]
[We all know this, it’s common sense. The question is, how can a familiar condense mist droplets?]
Mist droplets. As Qiao Sang read through the refreshing posts, her thoughts raced.
She didn’t know about other familiars, but Aquariana could use Water Mist. Water Mist and mist droplets were just different states of the same substance—dispersed and condensed. It was definitely worth a try to train her!
The netizens were truly talented!
In less than five minutes, they had given her such a great idea!
Qiao Sang was about to call out to Aquariana but stopped, remembering that it was likely practicing Healing Light next to the Treasure Seeker.
It was better not to disturb Aquariana’s practice.
Aquariana had only about ten days left before it would evolve with the help of points. The most important thing now was to get its Healing Light to mastery within this timeframe.
And Heartbreak.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and then went out to call Fangy into the room.
"Yah!"
Fangy wagged her tail and looked at Qiao Sang with wet eyes.
Qiao Sang was silent for a while before finally speaking.
"I have something to tell you, about Aquariana."
