Chapter 634: Spatial Lockdown
Chapter 634: Spatial Lockdown
Qiao Sang didn’t consider herself an absolute good person, nor was she one to meddle in others' affairs.
But the boy in front of her was someone she had brought out from the Subway. She felt she could at least ensure his safe delivery to the police station.
The man in a police uniform who had just appeared was suspicious, arriving even before the real police.
There were two possible explanations for this.
Either it was a typical scenario of corruption seen in TV dramas, or someone had a familiar with the ability to track others.
Rationally, Qiao Sang believed the latter was more likely, but she had seen enough TV shows and movies to know that the former was also a possibility and couldn’t be ignored.
So, the safest option was to take him to the police station herself.
Caution was useful; only by being sufficiently cautious could one avoid risks.
“I’ll do as you say,” Tim said without hesitation.
Despite her young appearance, the girl in front of him gave him an inexplicable sense of security.
Seeing that he had no objections, Qiao Sang picked up her mobile phone and started the navigation.
4.3 kilometers, not too far… Qiao Sang glanced at Fangy.
Before she could speak, Fangy understood her intent through a look and began to grow in size.
Qiao Sang nimbly mounted Fangy’s back and extended her hand to Tim. “Get on.”
Tim was taken aback but reached out and grabbed Qiao Sang’s hand. With a quick pull, she effortlessly lifted him onto her back.
Having undergone multiple replenishments, her strength was now far greater than that of an average adult male.
Tim’s body was tense, his nerves on edge.
This was his first time riding a familiar…
“First, we’ll go straight for one kilometer,” Qiao Sang said, looking at the navigation.
“Yah!”
Fangy called out, indicating understanding.
Straight? Tim looked at the alley ahead, which ended in a wall, and a question flashed through his mind.
How can we go straight? Do we just pass through?
Just as he was wondering, Fangy’s limbs left the ground, and he began running in the air.
Whoosh… The wind picked up, and Tim’s view suddenly opened up.
He quickly grabbed Qiao Sang’s backpack out of fear.
This familiar can actually run in the air… Tim’s mind buzzed, unable to process the sight.
He had seen many wild beast companions before, but never a familiar without wings that could move through the air by running…
At that moment, Lulu’s head suddenly poked out of the backpack.
“Ahh!”
Tim, who was only 0.1 centimeters away from Lulu, jumped back instinctively and let out a scream.
“Icechill.”
Lulu called out expressionlessly before retreating back into the backpack.
Steel Treasure, flying beside Fangy, glanced at Tim silently.
Cowardly human.
“Xunxun~”
Treasure Seeker covered her mouth and giggled.
“Don’t be afraid, it’s also my familiar,” Qiao Sang said from the front. “It just told you not to grab the backpack.”
Tim stammered, “O-Okay.”
Riding one, carrying one, with another invisible one, and one more flying beside, it felt like being fully equipped… Tim took a deep breath, feeling a mix of emotions as his sense of security soared.
Five minutes later, Qiao Sang looked at the navigation. “Now, turn left.”
“Yah!”
Fangy called out and turned left.
But after running less than a hundred meters, Fangy suddenly stopped, looking ahead with a wary expression.
No… Qiao Sang had a bad feeling and looked forward.
She saw a transparent film ahead. If not for her excellent vision and careful observation, she wouldn’t have noticed it.
Under Panoramic View, an invisible film enveloped the surroundings, like a barrier.
Qiao Sang’s expression changed.
With her recent intensive studies, she immediately recognized that a familiar had cast Spatial Lockdown.
Spatial Lockdown, a Psychic Type Advanced Skill, could confine a target within a space, making it the bane of Spatial Shift…
While Qiao Sang was thinking, a woman in her thirties with golden wavy hair and dressed in black clothing appeared, riding a two-meter-tall, mostly white bird familiar. She flew in without any hindrance and entered the film.
Tim's body stiffened when he saw the woman, and he whispered, "She's the Beastmaster in charge of theft in that organization."
It seemed they had been located. Otherwise, how could she have found them so accurately? Qiao Sang had deliberately taken an empty path... Despite her calm exterior, her heart sank.
With the Spatial Lockdown skill active, the Treasure Seeker couldn't use Spatial Shift to leave. It looked like a fight was inevitable. She wondered what level of Beastmaster the woman was...
"You didn't use Spatial Shift to go directly to the Police Station, so I guess you and your familiar aren't familiar with the area", the woman said with a smile. "You're not from around here, are you?"
Qiao Sang looked at her but didn't speak.
The woman's smile slowly faded. "If you hand over the boy behind you, you can leave. This isn't something you should get involved in."
Qiao Sang remained silent.
The woman's face darkened. To be honest, if the girl in front of her didn't look so young and wasn't an Amber Star Array, she would have attacked already.
But reason told her that someone with such high talent must have a significant background. And the familiar she had was so rare that she didn't recognize a single one... The woman's face brightened again. "I think there might be a misunderstanding."
To leave, Qiao Sang needed to either deal with the woman or the familiar casting the Spatial Lockdown. There seemed to be only one white bird familiar around, so it must be the one casting the Spatial Lockdown... Qiao Sang subtly glanced at the bird familiar perched on the woman's shoulder and asked, "How did you find me?"
"Sorry, that's a secret I can't reveal", the woman replied, not forgetting her purpose. "I hope you'll hand over the boy behind you."
Tim instinctively clenched his fists. He was afraid that this unknown Beastmaster would really take him.
It must be this bird familiar. There couldn't be a Ghost-type Companion Beast like the Treasure Seeker that could both use Invisibility and have Psychic-type attributes... Qiao Sang confirmed this and decided it was time to act.
As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Steel Treasure's body trembled. Dozens of purple feathers shot out from its body, transforming into streaks of purple light and hurtling toward the woman and her white bird familiar.
Good job! Steel Treasure truly lived up to its Bond Evolution status! Qiao Sang's spirits lifted. Even if the bird familiar wasn't injured, if it panicked and lost its balance, it might fail to maintain the energy required for the Spatial Lockdown. Then, the Treasure Seeker could use Spatial Shift to leave!
At that moment, a voice identical to the Treasure Seeker's echoed, "Oh, let me see what familiar this is... Ravenous Swallow, a Flying Type Intermediate Familiar. It's larger than others of the same level because of its huge appetite, but being large doesn't mean it's powerful."
"I'll take another look... Indeed, there's nothing special... Oh! Is this a battle? Go! Charge! I believe it's no match for you!"
"Xunxun."
The Treasure Seeker put away the limited edition Familiar Identifier from the Star Insight Series, keeping its abilities under wraps.
Qiao Sang: "!!"
A Flying Type Intermediate Familiar?
Where was the Psionic Familiar casting the Spatial Lockdown?!
