Chapter 638: Healing Light Doesn’t Work?
Qiao Sang took a long look before recognizing the bald man as the Beastmaster who had the Lunaram earlier.
Good grief, how did he end up like this... Qiao Sang seemed to have an idea and glanced at Steel Treasure.
"Steel Guardian."
Steel Treasure showed the feather it had plucked earlier, chirping to confirm it was indeed its handiwork.
This skill could make a good barber... Qiao Sang stifled a laugh and praised, "Not bad."
"Steel Guardian."
Steel Treasure tucked the feather away, its mouth curving into a modest chirp, indicating it still needed more practice.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Where else could it practice? It’s not like it could find a few people to practice on... Qiao Sang inwardly grumbled and then remembered the main matter.
"The Police Station is here, let's go in."
...
"Name?"
"Qiao Sang."
"Age?"
"Sixteen."
"How did you encounter the child?"
"On the Subway..."
Inside the Police Station, Qiao Sang was giving a statement about her Familiar.
Outside, a few officers were whispering to each other.
"From Blue Star?"
"Yep."
"Didn't they say she’s the Beastmaster who recently Bond Evolved the Steel Sparrow?"
"It's her. See that Familiar with the white mask around its eyes? That’s the Steel Guardian Falcon, the new Evolution Form of the Steel Sparrow."
"Wow! To Bond Evolve a Familiar like the Steel Sparrow, how did she do it?"
"It gets better. Do you know why she’s here?"
"I heard something about someone stealing from her on the Subway."
"Yeah, but it’s not just that. She encountered a child who was tricked into inciting public unrest."
"Whoa... Those Ghost-type Beastmasters from the Organization, right?"
"Exactly. And on her way here, she ran into some of their people and brought back two Ghost-type Beastmasters."
"Wow, that’s incredible! She looks so young... Who are the two Ghost-type Beastmasters she brought?"
"Candace and Dik."
"Dik?! The one with the Advanced Familiar Lunaram and the Brigadier Wet-Hair Giant?!"
"Keep your voice down..."
"How did I not see him?"
"That bald guy with no hair on his head."
"!!!"
Inside the room, Qiao Sang finished her statement and stood up, then thought of something and asked:
"Can I ask a question?"
"Of course", the officer helping with the statement said kindly.
"How did they find us even after I used Spatial Shift a few times?" Qiao Sang asked.
"That child, Tim, has a Wraith Eye from the Wraithvine, which can track him at any time", the officer explained.
Ah, so it was the Wraith Eye... Qiao Sang understood.
During her last Field Practice Class in Zone 27, Teacher Airen had attached a Wraith Eye to them.
The Wraith Eye can also show real-time visuals, right?
Does that mean they saw the internal organs of the person?
Qiao Sang shuddered at the thought of what it would look like on a security camera.
Suddenly, the officer remembered something and said seriously, "By the way, be careful in the Nineteenth District, especially avoid Left Pong District. According to our information, their base is there. Since you’ve brought us two of their people, they might try to get back at you."
Qiao Sang: "!!!"
Hey, don’t say such scary things all of a sudden!
Qiao Sang’s face turned a bit pale as she asked, "What should I do?"
"Either get a powerful Beastmaster to protect you, or avoid Left Pong District and leave the Nineteenth District as soon as possible", the officer said. "If you encounter any danger, you can contact us."
If I really do encounter danger, by the time you get here, I’ll probably be long gone... Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.
She walked out of the room, and Tim quickly approached. He didn’t say anything, just looked at her with big, wide eyes.
"Have you finished the interrogation?" Qiao Sang asked.
"It's done, but I still need to help them reconstruct my memories..." Tim paused, then whispered, "Thank you."
"Don't worry about it", Qiao Sang replied, composing herself and smiling. "It was nothing."
It wasn't nothing at all... Tim thought to himself.
He knew that if it were anyone else, they wouldn't have cared about his situation.
Back at the coffee shop, even if they had noticed the police officer acting suspiciously, they would have turned him over without a second thought...
Tim took a deep breath and mustered the courage to ask:
"Can you tell me your name?"
The Beastmaster in front of him smiled warmly. "Qiao Sang."
Qiao Sang... Tim silently repeated the name in his mind.
He knew he would never forget it, the name that changed his fate.
...
In an underground black market.
Two middle-aged men, both wearing hats, were walking and chatting.
"We need to abandon the Terry Station route. The police have traced it."
"Who was the Beastmaster who brought Dik to the police station?"
"Don't cause her any trouble. I had someone check her background; she's an interstellar exchange student from Blue Star."
"What's so special about an interstellar exchange student? She's from Blue Star, so if she disappears, who would know it was us?"
"She was exchanged to Sai Nan High School in the Third District. Do you know why she was here?"
"Sai Nan High School... that's a great school. Why?"
"Because she's already been accepted into the Imperial Beastmaster Academy. She's here for a tour and doesn't need to prepare for the National College Entrance Exam."
"Imperial Beastmaster Academy? Really? That's just a high school student?!" The middle-aged man looked shocked.
"While on the subway, one of our people was there. I checked their memories, and they saw her post on social media", the more serious-looking man explained.
"I see. What about Dik? He knows a lot about us, and Candace too."
"I'll have someone erase their memories", the man said calmly.
...
Qiao Sang felt a wave of pressure as she left the police station, realizing there might still be danger ahead.
Maybe she should find a powerful Beastmaster to follow, or get Fangy to evolve sooner, and leave this place as quickly as possible...
But Qiao Sang quickly shook her head, dispelling the thought.
No, Fangy's evolution is crucial and must not be rushed. Moreover, the vice principal hasn't provided the Blazing Star Hound's detection data yet...
Qiao Sang's thoughts settled, and she decided to focus on training to become stronger.
With the Treasure Seeker's Spatial Shift, she could always escape if she couldn't fight back.
Even if the enemy used dirty tactics, as long as she didn't die immediately, Lulu could revive her.
If things got too tough, she could always go to the mission center and find a powerful bodyguard to get her through the next month...
Qiao Sang opened her mobile phone and prepared to navigate to the Sota Hotel.
But just as she was setting the location, she had a sudden thought. She made a gesture with her hands, summoning the Treasure Seeker.
Instead of floating in the air as usual, the Treasure Seeker fell downward.
Qiao Sang quickly caught it.
"Xunxun..."
The Treasure Seeker's face was bright red, and its body was burning hot.
What did it inhale... Qiao Sang's heart sank as she looked at the closed eyes of the Treasure Seeker.
"Lulu, Healing Light."
"Icechill."
Lulu emerged from the backpack, and the gem on her forehead emitted a blue light that enveloped the Treasure Seeker.
When the light faded, the Treasure Seeker was still red-faced and asleep, but its body temperature had dropped significantly.
Qiao Sang felt a wave of panic.
The Healing Light didn't work?
She quickly picked up her mobile phone, opened the navigation, and typed in "Beastmaster Center."
