Chapter 396: Seabed Hotel (Second Update)
Chapter 396: Seabed Hotel (Second Update)
This guy really has no sense of judgment... Jiang Xiu grumbled to himself.
Despite being an A-Class Breeder, after receiving the message from Glacialia's Beastmaster, the number of fellow Familiar Trainers of the same rank who were vying, both openly and secretly, to come and work for free in the Ancient Fog Region was overwhelming. He couldn't figure out how those researchers, who were always buried in their studies, got such reliable information.
He only managed to secure this job because he had some connections from his university days with Liu Yao.
Well, there are still a few more days. Let Qiao Sang enjoy the local culture and scenery of the Ancient Fog Region for now... Jiang Xiu turned to the Seasalt Lizard and said, "Let's go."
"Seasalt."
The Seasalt Lizard nodded and slowly crawled into the waterways, stopping at the shore.
"You can just climb on up", Jiang Xiu said as he seated himself on the Seasalt Lizard.
Unlike other Water-type Companion Beasts in the waterways, which had seats on their bodies, the Seasalt Lizard was large enough that its body had natural protrusions at regular intervals, perfect for resting on.
The four of them quickly climbed on.
Jiang Xiu sat at the front and patted the Seasalt Lizard's head.
In the next moment, the Seasalt Lizard's mouth opened, and a giant, semi-transparent Water Bubble enveloped its entire body from head to tail.
This isn't going to be a dive, is it... Qiao Sang thought just as the Seasalt Lizard plunged into the water.
Suddenly, the scene changed dramatically.
Normally, the underwater world at night would be pitch black, but at this time, the Seacitywaterways were bathed in a deep blue, with various mysterious, glowing Water-Type Supernatural Creatures making the underwater world incredibly beautiful.
It was as if they had entered another world.
Damn! This is so beautiful, and there are so many familiars... Qiao Sang was stunned by the sight.
All around them, various Water-type Companion Beasts swam in groups, all of which she had never seen before.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker's eyes sparkled with excitement as it pressed its face against the inner wall of the bubble, looking out.
"Wow! I have to post this on my social media!" Xu Yixuan exclaimed, taking photos with her mobile phone.
Sun Boyi tried to maintain his dignity as a teacher but couldn't resist taking a couple of photos as well.
Jiang Xiu turned around and saw the amazed expression on Qiao Sang's face, feeling very satisfied.
He had known that no one could resist the underwater scenery of the Ancient Fog Region.
"Are these all wild beast companions?" Qiao Sang asked.
Jiang Xiu flashed a charming smile and explained, "The Ancient Fog Region is different from Yuhua Region. Our city is built over water, and it's impossible to drive away all the wild beast companions in the water. So, we decided to live in peace with them. As long as we don't disturb them, everything is fine."
As he spoke, a slender, transparent familiar with wing-like side flippers outside the bubble blew a kiss to Treasure Seeker.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker was so excited that it wanted to break out of the bubble.
For the first time in its life, another familiar had shown it a friendly signal upon meeting.
It wanted to be friends!
Qiao Sang quickly pulled Treasure Seeker into her arms, startled.
Jiang Xiu laughed and said, "That's a Kisswing. It likes to blow kisses for fun. It has kissed countless others, so don't take it too seriously."
Without Qiao Sang having to say anything, Treasure Seeker understood.
It stared at the Kisswing, which had already swum away and was now blowing kisses to another familiar.
"Xun..."
Treasure Seeker's face fell, its newfound hope of friendship shattered.
But fortunately, Treasure Seeker's attention was easily diverted.
Before long, it forgot about the Kisswing and was excitedly watching other Supernatural Creatures from the inner wall of the bubble.
……
The Seasalt Lizard didn't swim toward the surface but instead headed deeper into the water.
Half an hour later, the three of them, Qiao Sang, Xu Yixuan, and Sun Boyi, were left speechless as they stared at the luxurious hotel enveloped in gigantic Water Bubbles.
"Is the school really being so generous this time?!" Xu Yixuan was thoroughly amazed.
This was the kind of awe that could only be felt after two years of participating in the competition and staying in budget hotels each time.
The building before them met every standard of a five-star hotel.
In the Ancient Fog Region, the same level of luxury underwater was three times the price of a land-based hotel.
In other words, staying one night in this five-star hotel was equivalent to three nights in a five-star hotel on land!
Sun Boyi hesitated, "Coach Jiang, I think I booked a different hotel."
They must have taken a wrong turn... Xu Yixuan felt a bit disheartened.
Jiang Xiu smiled, "I checked the hotel you booked. The rooms were small and not convenient for training. You've had a long journey, and it's not easy to come to the Ancient Fog Region. You should stay somewhere comfortable."
"So I rebooked you into this hotel. The Seacity Familiar Arena is right above it, making it convenient for your matches."
"The rooms I booked all have floor-to-ceiling windows, so you can enjoy the underwater scenery while you sleep. I think your Water-type Companion Beasts will love it."
After saying this, he glanced at Qiao Sang, as if to say:
I booked this hotel specifically for Glacialia; it will definitely love it!
They were actually staying in this hotel... Xu Yixuan was pleasantly surprised and couldn't wait to move in.
Sun Boyi thanked him, his expression complicated as he looked at Qiao Sang, clearly knowing why Jiang Xiu had done this.
……
Each of the three got their own room.
The decor was extremely luxurious, and various Water-Type Supernatural Creatures passed by from time to time, creating no sense of suffocation. It felt as if they could breathe and live underwater.
Qiao Sang summoned Fangy and Lulu, who were still asleep, and lay down on the bed, feeling her eyelids grow heavy as she drifted off to sleep.
The next day, Qiao Sang was awakened by a chorus of "Ya Ya!" and "Xunxun!" and "Lulu!"
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Fangy and Lulu excitedly pressing their noses against the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing outside.
Fangy and Lulu were close together, their tails wagging in sync, as if they had suddenly become good friends.
Qiao Sang sat up, a bit stunned by the scene. "You two made up?"
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy, hearing its Beastmaster's voice, turned around and excitedly jumped over in a few quick steps.
Qiao Sang instinctively caught it.
"Lulu."
On the other side, Lulu, hearing this, first froze, then turned her head away, displaying a tsundere expression.
Who said I made up with that guy?
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy didn't care what Lulu said. It excitedly pointed at the window with its paw and called out twice, indicating how beautiful the view was.
Qiao Sang stared at Fangy for a few seconds and asked, "Didn't you hate water the most?"
"Ya?"
Fangy was taken aback, looking confused.
That's true, but it doesn't seem to hate it as much now...
Qiao Sang understood what was going on.
Since Fangy's Evolution, it had gained a Psychic Type attribute, which made it less averse to water.
During training in the Courtyard with Lulu, water sometimes splashed on it without it showing any displeasure.
Plus, Lulu was always practicing Water Skills nearby, so it had gotten used to it over time.
However, this was a good opportunity to mend the relationship between Fangy and Lulu, so she wouldn't reveal the real reason.
Qiao Sang pretended to think for a moment, then exclaimed, "Is it because of Lulu that you don't hate water anymore?"
"Fangy."
Fangy seriously recalled and realized that it did start to dislike water less after Lulu came.
So, it nodded.
"Lulu..."
Lulu's body stiffened at the conversation.
Qiao Sang seized the opportunity. "Lulu, we're in the Ancient Fog Region now. You're more familiar with the water. If we go out to play, you need to keep an eye on Fangy."
"Xun!" Treasure Seeker called out, reminding everyone of its presence.
"And Treasure Seeker", Qiao Sang added.
"Lulu."
Lulu didn't look at Fangy, but it stiffly nodded, acknowledging the task.
