Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1562

Chapter 1562. Chapter 1556 The Fragrance of Life (Part Two)

“Let me check again,” Seri said, picking up the device and re-checking Xia Bao.

After about three minutes, he put down the device and said, “In Xia Bao’s battle form, she has Grass, Psychic, Poison, and Water types. Grass type energy accounts for 82%, Psychic type 8%, Poison type 7%, and Water type 3%.”

82% Grass type energy. Qiao Sang’s heart sank.

An expert specializing in pet energy and skills had published a paper stating that a pet’s main attribute energy must account for over 95% to have a chance of learning advanced skills at higher levels.

82% main attribute energy percentage—that’s too low.

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Michaela asked, “What about Xia Bao’s normal form?”

“In normal form, no Poison or Water type energy was detected in Xia Bao,” Seri replied.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, and she asked, “What are the energy percentages in normal form?”

Normal form only has two types of energy, which are easy to distinguish. Seri didn’t need to turn Xia Bao back to normal form to answer:

“Grass-type energy is 99%, and Psychic-type energy is 1%.”

It seemed her worries were unnecessary. Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief, then voiced her earlier guess:

“Xia Bao gains an extra attribute in battle form with each evolution. Will it gain an extra attribute with every future evolution?”

“I don’t know about that,” Seri laughed. “No breeder has ever had the honor of examining Xia Lala before.”

Meaning, there was absolutely no information about Xia Lala’s physical data. Just

as Qiao Sang was about to ask something else, Xia Bao suddenly called out:

“Xia Xia.”

It was true that it would gain an extra attribute in battle form with each future evolution.

“Xun Xun,”

Little Xun Bao said with an envious expression.

Each evolution grants an additional attribute.

It unconsciously imagined itself breathing fire like Brother Toothpuff, radiating cold air like Lu Bao, freezing everything around it, and then, like Steelpuff, its arms shooting out like blades to attack its opponent

. “Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao imagined the scene, its expression even more envious.

Qiao Sang looked at Xia Bao and subconsciously asked, “How do you know?”

After asking, she understood and asked again, “Did you inherit more of this kind of content?” “

Xia Xia.”

Xia Bao nodded.

“What is Xia Bao saying?” Michaela didn’t understand and asked.

Seri looked over; he didn’t understand either.

“It said that with each evolution, its battle form will gain an additional attribute,” Qiao Sang said.

She didn’t feel particularly happy about this.

Although it had more attributes and learned more skills, the new skills awakened with each evolution would be scattered—one attribute skill awakened, another attribute skill awakened—making it difficult to awaken a particularly powerful skill.

Speaking of which, Xia Bao can’t use poison-type skills in its normal form. After evolving, will its awakened skills be divided into two parts?

One part is the skills for the normal form, and the other part is the skills for the battle form?

Qiao Sang recalled the special nature of Xia Bao’s Beast Taming Codex and a thought struck her.

If Xia Bao’s normal form and battle form can awaken different skills respectively, wouldn’t it have two or three more skills than other pets with each evolution?

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang couldn’t wait to immediately enter the Beast Taming Codex to check.

Seri exclaimed, “Truly worthy of being a legendary mythical beast! It gains an attribute with each evolution. Apart from mechanical-type pets, I’ve never seen a pet with so many attributes.”

“Xia Xia,”

Xia Bao said, feeling embarrassed by the praise.

Michaela frowned slightly, deep in thought, and said,

“Too many attributes for a single pet isn’t necessarily a good thing for a professional beast tamer.”

Not a good thing? Xia Bao paused, subconsciously looking at its beast tamer.

“I originally thought the same as you, but if Xia Bao could awaken different skills in different forms, that would be an absolute blessing,” Qiao Sang said.

“Xia Bao’s combat form skills can’t be used in its normal form. I think Xia Bao might be able to awaken different skills in both forms.”

“Experts have already studied this,” Sai Rui said. “After evolving, multi-form pets awaken skills that are no different from ordinary pets. It’s just that some skills are sealed in the normal form and can only be unlocked in the combat form.”

“There are also some multi-form pets that can awaken different skills in their normal and special forms, and the number of awakened skills will far exceed that of other pets.”

He paused, then said with certainty,

“Xia Lala is definitely the latter.”

Qiao Sang nodded in agreement,

“I think so too.”

“Xia Xia,”

Xia Bao understood that it was being praised and became shy again.

“For professional beast tamers, quality is more important than quantity of skills,” Michaela said in a deep voice. “In Xia Bao’s combat form, poison and water skills make up a very small percentage. Even if it awakens far more skills than other pets, the levels of these skills…”

“No, no.”

Before she could finish speaking, Wu Yuanwang impatiently called out, indicating that Xia Bao was a phantom beast, and definitely different from other pets that could change forms.

Michaela frowned.

Her worries were not unfounded.

Although Xia Bao was a phantom beast, its main ability was to revive all things. She had never heard of it being good at combat before. She needed to make Qiao Sang understand as soon as possible that if Xia Bao’s awakened skills were scattered in attributes and not high in level, then it would have to focus on learning some skills instead of practicing these awakened skills.

Although Wu Yuanwang interrupted her, Michaela opened her mouth, still wanting to continue what she hadn’t finished saying.

But just then, the eyes of the woman beside her, Penjami, glowed blue, and an invisible force controlled Michaela’s head to look in Xia Bao’s direction.

“Xiaxia.”

Xia Bao’s head drooped, and the flower bud on her neck seemed to wither, looking very sad.

Michaela: “!!!”

Michaela suddenly realized that her words had caused Xia Bao’s condition, and quickly echoed Wu Yuanwang’s words, saying,

“You’re right, Xia Bao’s situation is definitely different from other multi-form pets!”

Wu Yuanwang glanced at his beast tamer with considerable surprise.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Bao raised its head, the flower bud on its neck swaying, as if it had come back to life.

“I have a pretty good understanding of Xia Lala’s situation. As for the energy pills, I can finish making them within a week,” Seri said. “As before, the energy pills will be made into two types, one for consumption in normal form and one for consumption in battle form.”

“Xia Xia.” Upon hearing this, Xia Bao showed a pained expression.

Qiao Sang remembered another important matter and asked,

“One of the toxins in Wu Yuanwang’s body…”

Seri interrupted, “Who is Wu Yuanwang?”

“Wu Wu.”

Wu Yuanwang called out.

“It’s me.”

Seree looked over.

“It’s the Void Lord of No Wish.” Qiao Sang continued, “One of the toxins within the Void Lord of No Wish is said to allow poison-type pets to rapidly increase their energy. I want to know, given the significant level difference, is it okay for Xia Bao to absorb this toxin while it’s near it? How long should it absorb it each day?”

Seri pondered for a moment before answering seriously,

“The Void Lord of No Wish does indeed have a toxin that allows pets to rapidly increase their energy, but that’s for poison-type pets. Xia Lala’s primary attribute is grass, so theoretically, it can absorb this toxin in battle form by circulating poison energy to increase its energy.”

“But this increases poison energy. If it absorbs it for a long time, the proportion of poison energy in Xia Lala’s body will increase rapidly in battle form, which is not conducive to its future growth.”

“Therefore, I don’t recommend absorbing it this way.”

Indeed, Xia Bao’s primary attribute is grass, and it will gain an additional secondary attribute with each evolution. Its primary attribute energy proportion in battle form is already less than 90%. If the poison energy increases further, the grass energy proportion will be even lower. Qiao Sang thought to herself as she glanced in the direction of the Void Lord of No Wish.

Wuyou’s body stiffened.

What did that mean?

It didn’t need its toxins anymore?

Then its reason for staying was gone?

Josang said, “I understand.”

Seri wanted to say something more.

Michaela spoke up, “Go back and make the energy pills as soon as possible. Contact me if you need any materials. If they’re made, don’t mail them. We’ll be moving between different cities recently, so I’ll have Meimei pick them up directly.”

Although Seri wanted to stay longer, he nodded and said,

“Okay.”

“Meimei, see him off,” Michaela said.

Hearing this, a thought flashed through Josang’s mind: You were able to have Meimei pick him up instead of going back by yourself, all thanks to Teacher Jacqueline.

In that instant, Michaela’s eyes glowed blue, and she disappeared with Seri. Wuyou turned

and went back to its room, somewhat dejected.

A short while later, it came out with its luggage and headed towards the door.

Michaela was taken aback: “What’s wrong?”

Wuyou ignored her and continued walking towards the door.

Josang called out,

“No Wish.”

No Wish stopped and turned around.

Michaela: “.”

“What’s wrong?” Josang asked.

“No.”

No Wish sighed and called out, indicating that it felt there was no need for it anymore, and it would go back to its room.

Originally, it could help find the Guide Shuttle, but the Guide Shuttle came to it on its own. No problem, it could stay and let Sharara absorb poison energy faster, but that wasn’t necessary either.

It couldn’t think of a reason to stay and live there anymore.

Josang gestured with its head towards the room No Wish had come from and said, “Isn’t this your room?”

No Wish was stunned for a moment.

Josang continued to ask,

“You don’t think Sharara doesn’t need your poison anymore, that you’re no longer useful, so you want to leave, do you?”

No Wish didn’t speak, which was taken as an admission.

“That’s exactly what I was thinking.” Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said, “Even if Xia Bao doesn’t need to absorb the toxins, I still hope you can stay and live with us. We’re heading to the Laughing Kingdom tomorrow, so we can travel together.”

She paused, then added,

“Teacher Michaela thinks so too.”

Michaela reacted quickly, saying, “Of course I think so too.”

Wu Yuanwang was silent for two seconds, then looked at Qiao Sang and called out with some emotion,

“Wu Wu.”

Since you’ve said so, of course I’ll stay.

After saying that, her expression became serious, and she called out again,

“Wu Wu.”

I’ll help you find that alien pet.

The Object-Knowing Monster glanced at it, giving it a “you” look, but quickly composed itself.

Wu Yuanwang picked up her luggage and turned back to her room.

Although Wu Yuanwang ignored Michaela the whole time, she still felt a strange stirring in her heart.

She keenly sensed that her relationship with Wu Yuanwang was improving. If she had said this before, Wu Yuanwang would definitely have rolled her eyes or snorted coldly, saying, “I don’t care what you think.”

But now, it said nothing, and even stayed behind.

“Teacher, when are we going to Laughter Kingdom tomorrow?” Qiao Sang asked.

Michaela gathered her thoughts and said,

“In the morning. We’ll go after breakfast tomorrow.”

Then, she suddenly remembered Xia Bao’s matter about multiple attributes. She was about to speak, but then remembered Xia Bao’s sad expression, and swallowed her words. Never

mind, she’d talk to Qiao Sang again when Xia Bao wasn’t around.

“Okay, I’ll go pack my things first.” Qiao Sang said, walking towards her room and

closing the door.

Qiao Sang didn’t pack immediately. Instead, she leaned against the headboard, closed her eyes, and focused her consciousness on the Beast Taming Codex, quickly flipping to the page about Xia Bao.
