Chapter 807: Where Have I Seen You Before
Chapter 807: Where Have I Seen You Before (Combined)
A pleasant female voice echoed through the public announcement system:
"Passengers, all wild beast companions have been successfully expelled from the airport. However, due to the damage caused by the wild beast companions, all flights have been delayed. New departure times will be announced as soon as the situation is under control. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will do our best to provide the assistance and support you need. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation."
The passengers in the waiting hall burst into cheers.
Rather than criticizing the airport for its negligence, they were first filled with a sense of relief and joy at having survived the ordeal.
...
On the tarmac.
Staff members were busy repairing the ground and inspecting the damage to the aircraft.
Although they had been careful not to use large-scale attack skills during the battle, the sheer number of wild beast companions, and the second wave, had still caused some damage to the planes.
Fortunately, the second wave of wild beast companions arrived and left quickly, so the damage wasn't too severe.
Archer looked at Qiao Sang with a genuinely grateful smile: "We really owe you a lot for this. Without your help, the wild beast companions wouldn't have been dealt with so quickly."
Qiao Sang smiled back: "Helping everyone is also helping myself, after all, I'm here too."
If it weren't for her, this whole situation might not have happened...
What a noble child, helping so much and not even taking credit... Archer's gaze grew softer.
He then seemed to remember something, pulled a business card from his pocket, and handed it to her: "This is my card. If you ever come back to Zone Thirty, feel free to contact me if you need anything."
I doubt I'll ever come back to Zone Thirty... Qiao Sang took the card, glanced at it, and put it away: "Thank you, I will."
"Where are you headed?" Archer asked.
"First District", Qiao Sang replied.
First District... Of course, only a place like First District could produce such a prodigy... Archer couldn't help but glance at the familiars he didn't recognize.
Zone Thirty is known for its numerous wild beast companions, and you can see most familiar species here, including some particularly rare ones.
Beastmasters from the Lower Ten Districts and Middle Ten Districts who want to bond with rare familiars but don't have enough budget often come to Zone Thirty to try their luck.
However, even with the variety of familiars in Zone Thirty, Archer didn't recognize any of the familiars in front of him.
They must be incredibly rare...
Archer withdrew his gaze and asked: "Which flight are you on?"
"Which flight are you on?"
"It's the 3:30 AM one", Qiao Sang said with a wry smile. "I was about to board when this happened."
Archer pondered for a moment and said: "It will take several hours to inspect all the planes parked here. If you're in a hurry, there will be another flight to First District arriving in about ten minutes. I can help you change your flight."
Qiao Sang's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Of course", Archer smiled. "Flights from Zone Thirty to the Upper Ten Districts are usually the least crowded. I'm sure there will be plenty of seats on the next flight to First District."
"Thank you so much!" Qiao Sang said gratefully.
She had just managed to deal with those five people and didn't want to wait around for more trouble, especially from that A-Rank Beastmaster. Who knows what tricks he had up his sleeve.
"It's the crew who should be thanking you", Archer said, turning to make a call to the staff who handle flight changes.
Qiao Sang took out her mobile phone and dialed Professor Bilet's number again.
"Beep beep~"
This time, the call connected, and a familiar voice came through the speaker: "Hello."
He finally answered... Qiao Sang's spirits lifted, and she eagerly asked: "Teacher, are you okay?"
"I'm fine", Bilet's voice sounded a bit strange, as if he had just been crying and his nose was still stuffy. "You haven't boarded yet?"
"Not yet. Something happened, and I had to change my flight. I'll be boarding soon", Qiao Sang replied, recalling the voice she had heard earlier. "Are you really okay?"
"I'm fine", Bilet coughed a couple of times, and his voice became a bit more normal. "Just head back to First District. Those two people seem to have received some news and are on their way to you. I'll buy a ticket for tomorrow and head back."
He paused, then his voice cracked, but he quickly composed himself and continued: "I won't talk any longer. There are a lot of wild beast companions on the road."
Qiao Sang: "...Okay."
She hung up the call and looked at her mobile phone, deep in thought.
Professor Bilet must have run into some trouble, but it didn't seem to be anything dangerous...
At that moment, Archer hung up the phone and walked over, smiling. "Get ready, the flight has been rescheduled."
……
Outside the Thicket, in an open area.
Birit put down his mobile phone, and tears streamed down his face uncontrollably.
He never expected the other party to play such a dirty trick, making his familiar release tear gas just to make his commands incoherent.
It was despicable to the extreme!
Fortunately, Qiao Sang had already left; otherwise, her seeing him like this would have been a huge embarrassment for a teacher.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from nearby.
Birit's eyes instantly sharpened, and he turned his head, his voice tinged with sobs. "Who's there?"
"Dosi."
In the Wasteland, a Doxidora poked its head out.
"It's you..." Birit said, tears still streaming down his face.
He recognized it as the one that had provided Qiao Sang with the Adinix lead.
"Dosi..."
The Doxidora looked around cautiously before slowly approaching and stopping beside Birit.
"I don't have any food on me right now", Birit said, thinking the Doxidora was looking for something to eat.
"Dosi?"
The Doxidora looked at the tears streaming down his face, its expression filled with confusion.
"Are you asking why I'm crying?" Birit guessed, still crying.
"Dosi."
The Doxidora nodded.
"Because I was hit by tear gas", Birit replied.
Upon hearing this, the Doxidora suddenly turned and ran into the Thicket.
Birit didn't pay much attention and continued to cry. He was preparing to wait until the effects of the tear gas wore off before leaving.
After a few minutes, a commotion came from the Thicket, as if something was running toward them.
Birit's eyes, though tearful, sharpened as he looked in the direction of the sound.
The Doxidora that had left earlier returned, holding a green plant in its claws.
"Dosi!"
The Doxidora stopped in front of Birit and offered the green plant to him.
"Is this for me?" Birit asked hesitantly.
"Dosi."
The Doxidora nodded.
"What is it?" Birit asked, taking it and still crying.
"Dosi."
The Doxidora raised its claws and pointed to its nose.
Birit, a person with considerable experience, having entered the Hidden Realm multiple times and surrounded by familiar behavior researchers, immediately understood the Doxidora's meaning.
"Are you telling me to smell it?"
"Dosi."
The Doxidora nodded again.
Birit, still crying, picked up the green plant and gave it a casual sniff. It wasn't that he was unguarded around the wild beast companion; he had interacted with this Doxidora before and knew it had a good temperament. Plus, it was only an Intermediate Beast, posing no real threat to him.
"This grass is really pungent", Birit said, his face showing disgust as he moved the plant away.
Suddenly, he felt something and paused, staring at the Doxidora. "The grass you gave me can neutralize the effects of the tear gas?"
"Dosi." The Doxidora scratched its head, embarrassed.
It didn't leave but looked at Birit with eyes full of anticipation.
Birit's tears stopped, and his mood improved. He smiled and said, "I really don't have any food on me."
"Dosi..."
The Doxidora's face fell at the lack of food.
"But I have something you might need", Birit continued.
He pulled a brown crystal from his pocket.
An Earthstone, a crucial artifact for Earth-type Beast Companions to evolve. He remembered that the Doxidora's evolution condition was to use an Earthstone.
For ordinary Beastmasters, Earthstones might be extremely valuable, but the one Birit had was neither too high nor too low in level, making it useless for him both in practical and collection terms.
He kept it in his pocket purely because he had an Earth-type Beast Companion that liked to snack on Earthstones, so he always had one on hand.
"Dosi..."
The Doxidora took the Earthstone, looking puzzled, unsure of its use.
"Place it on your forehead and channel your energy", Birit explained.
If a familiar's energy was full and met the evolution requirements, touching the evolution stone would cause it to glow.
But the Doxidora's stone didn't glow, indicating that its energy levels hadn't reached the required threshold.
There were two possibilities: either its energy was far from the required level, in which case using the evolution stone would be ineffective, or it had already surpassed a certain threshold, in which case channeling energy would help it evolve.
For familiars, it was best to wait until their energy was completely full before using the evolution stone for the best results.
But that only applies to familiars bound to a Beastmaster. For wild beast companions, when it's time to evolve, they naturally must do so.
After all, in the world of the strong preying on the weak, the survival environment for wild beast companions is harsh. If their strength is insufficient, they might not even get enough to eat.
Birit wiped away the remaining snot and tears from her face, then looked up at Neudikaka, who was keeping watch in the sky, and said:
"Let's go."
"Nu."
Neudikaka called out, its eyes glowing with blue light.
In the next second, both it and Birit vanished from their spot.
"Dosi..."
Doxidora hesitated for a moment, looking at the Earthstone in her hand before slowly pressing it to her forehead.
Just before she started circulating her energy, she felt a moment of dizziness, looking at the scene before her.
An open field, wasteland... it seemed so familiar...
Doxidora snapped back to her senses and began circulating the energy within her body.
Under the moonlight, the wasteland swayed in the silent open field.
A blinding white light suddenly illuminated the area.
...
The next day.
First District.
Airport.
After the plane landed smoothly, Qiao Sang got off, deactivated her Flying mode, and received a message from Professor Bilet, confirming that she had successfully boarded.
She silently let out a sigh of relief.
At that moment, a staff member approached her and respectfully said:
"Are you Miss Qiao Sang?"
Qiao Sang was taken aback for a moment but nodded in response.
"A Beast Car has been prepared for you. I'll show you the way", the staff member said and began leading her.
She had almost forgotten about the Vip service... Following the staff member, Qiao Sang arrived at a bird familiar on the tarmac, which had a carriage attached to its back.
The staff member opened the door.
Not bad, this saves the time of leaving the airport... Qiao Sang stepped inside.
The door closed.
The bird familiar flapped its wings forcefully and soared into the sky.
"Ya!"
Fangy opened the window and looked out at the scene below.
"Ice Ai."
Lulu's head was next to Fangy's, also looking outside.
Steel Treasure, feeling quite good, practiced its newly learned Clone skill.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker glanced at Fangy, then at Lulu, and finally at Steel Treasure. Realizing that everyone seemed to have forgotten something, it approached its Beastmaster and pretended to cough to draw attention.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang asked, putting down her mobile phone.
"Xunxun?"
Treasure Seeker lowered its voice and called out, indicating that the flute player in the Ring needed to be dealt with.
Qiao Sang was about to speak but suddenly remembered that Adinix might be able to see the outside world through the Ring, which meant it could also hear the sounds outside.
With this in mind, she swallowed her original words and said:
"Since it likes to stay inside, let's not disturb it. We'll talk about it when we get home."
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker nodded.
Fine, after waiting so long, it doesn't matter if it takes a little longer...
...
Fifty minutes later.
Villa.
"Xunxun!" As soon as they entered, Treasure Seeker couldn't wait to call out and then collapsed on the sofa, indicating how exhausting the journey had been.
After speaking, it occasionally glanced at Fangy and the others, as well as its Beastmaster, waiting for a reaction.
"Good job." Qiao Sang said and headed to her room.
"Ya!"
Fangy, full of energy, went to the training ground.
Steel Treasure followed the same direction.
"Ice Ai."
Lulu glanced at Treasure Seeker, then the gem on her forehead glowed blue, casting light on its body. After the blue light faded, she turned and walked toward the indoor swimming pool.
Treasure Seeker: "???"
Treasure Seeker blinked, looking at the empty living room, completely baffled.
Why is this completely different from what I expected!
Everyone should take turns talking about how tiring the journey was, and then I would dramatically recount my contributions.
When the flute player comes out to play the flute, I would take my place as the leader.
That's how it should go!
At that moment, Qiao Sang came out with a pile of snacks, then went to the kitchen to open the fridge, taking out everything edible and placing it on the dining table. She then turned to Treasure Seeker and said:
"Ask Adinix if it wants to come out now."
"Xunxun!"
Here it comes!
My Beastmaster didn't forget about this guy!
Treasure Seeker perked up, took off the Ring, and its head immediately dove inside.
After a few seconds, it emerged, enlarged the Ring, and used its claws to pull out Adinix, whose body and head were both quite round.
