Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448: Chapter 423: The Furious Eyeball Fish

Jiang Xiu suddenly realized he had made a mistake.

The young girl’s contract with Bingke Xilu was an accident, but the Liaoxing Dog and the Treasure-seeking Demon were not.

To be able to contract such highly talented Pet Beasts and nurture them to this extent in such a short time, how could her family possibly be short of money!

Born into an extraordinary background, naturally, she had high standards; no wonder she wasn’t interested in the warm water stones...

What else was in his backpack... Jiang Xiu silently reached into his backpack to search.

"Aren’t you going to pick it up?" Qiao Sang saw that Professor Jiang hadn’t moved or spoken for a while, so she asked again.

Jiang Xiu was silent for a moment before calling out, "Haizi."

The Sea Salt Lizard showed an expression that screamed speechlessness, speeding up towards the spot where the warm water stone had sunk and gulped it down in one bite.

Not long after, a water current gushed out from a blue circular spot on the back of the Sea Salt Lizard.

After the water dissipated, the warm water stone reappeared there.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang asked with interest, "Is this a skill or a trait?"

As Jiang Xiu put the warm water stone back into his backpack, he explained:

"This is a storage trait, considered the lowest level one; my Sea Salt Lizard can store a small amount of items internally and use its mouth or this circular spot for storing and transferring. However, the storage time is very short, if something is kept inside for more than five minutes, it will be digested."

That’s something new... Qiao Sang thought to herself.

...

In the following time, every minute or so, they saw materials suitable for Pet Beasts.

Jiang Xiu’s backpack was continuously being filled and emptied, repeating the cycle without ever flattening.

"There seems to be something over there..." Jiang Xiu said in a numb tone.

He felt as though he was an NPC in a game, always repeating the same actions and words.

Following his gaze, Qiao Sang’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Is that a Dark Serene Crystal?"

Seeing Qiao Sang’s interested look, Jiang Xiu instantly perked up, pretending to take a closer look, then said with certainty:

"It is a Dark Serene Crystal!"

"Professor, aren’t you going to pick it up?" Qiao Sang asked.

Jiang Xiu waved his hand dismissively and said in an indifferent tone, "I’m not interested in the Dark Serene Crystal, but if you want it, I’ll have the Sea Salt Lizard pick it up for you."

Professor Jiang really is an odd one, interested in warm water stones valued around a thousand but not in the Dark Serene Crystal worth at least tens of thousands... Qiao Sang marveled in her mind and then spoke up:

"I’ll have Lubao pick it up."

With Qiao Sang’s words, Lubao quickly sped up and reached the place where the Dark Serene Crystal had fallen. Just as it stretched out its paw to pick it up, it suddenly noticed a dark red sphere nearby, several times larger than the Dark Serene Crystal.

"Bingke."

Lubao placed one paw on the Dark Serene Crystal and another on the dark red sphere, preparing to pick up both.

But when its paw lifted, the dark red sphere didn’t budge an inch.

"Bingke!"

Lubao put more force into it.

"Zhu Zhu!"

Suddenly, a roar sounded close at hand, causing the dark red sphere to wobble.

Beneath the sphere, a pair of dark red eyes abruptly opened.

After seeing Lubao, the originally ferocious and violent gaze of the dark red eyes paused for a moment.

"No good, it’s the King-level Pet Beast, the Explosive Eyeball Fish!" Jiang Xiu exclaimed, "Quick, call back Bingke Xilu!"

King-level Pet Beast?! Qiao Sang felt a chill in her heart and quickly waved her hand, summoning Lubao back into the Beast Taming Codex.

"Zhu Zhu!!!"

The very next second after recalling Lubao, the Explosive Eyeball Fish let out a roar that was even more furious than before.

The water rippled as a large Pet Beast, almost deep blue in color, with protruding eyes and dark red spheres on its forehead and tail, appeared within Qiao Sang’s field of vision.

"Ya Ya!"

Yaobao showed an excited expression at the sight of the Explosive Eyeball Fish, as if eager to fight right away.

Why is it that every time you see something strong, you want to fight? It’s a King-level Pet Beast; we can’t beat it... Qiao Sang noticed Yaobao’s eagerness, the corner of her mouth twitching as she said, "This is underwater, are you sure you want to go out and fight?"

"Ya..."

Yaobao stiffened, quietly staying within the embrace of its own Beast Tamer without moving.

Dammit, it really still hates water!

Jiang Xiu on the side spoke with a grave expression, "The most troublesome one in this part of the sea is this Explosive Eyeball Fish, I didn’t expect we’d run into it so soon."

Jiang Xiu replied, "I need to ensure your safety first, it’s not very convenient right now, communicating with this Explosive Eyeball Fish can easily lead to a conflict." _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}
