Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1577
Chapters 1577 and 1571, “Everyday” (combined)
“It actually learned the mental link! Little Xunbao’s learning talent is truly amazing!” Qiao Sang was overjoyed.
In a flash, the data behind the mental link changed from 1 to 2.
Little Xunbao had successfully established a mental link with the doll. Qiao Sang instantly understood, her consciousness quickly returning to reality.
“Xunxun!”
Opening her eyes, she saw Little Xunbao excitedly call out, indicating that its mental link had succeeded again!
Of course, with this cheat-like ability, once you succeed, you won’t fail again. Qiao Sang beamed,
“Great! We can finally try the method Xiao Yulai mentioned.”
The blue light in Little Xunbao’s eyes faded, and it looked at its Beastmaster, calling out curiously,
“Xunxun?”
How do we get these dolls to people who truly like me?
This is a good question. Qiao Sang fell into deep thought.
Directly listing the dolls with online or offline pet shops didn’t seem feasible. It wasn’t that she was afraid these shops wouldn’t allow the dolls to be listed, but the number of dolls produced was limited, and she had to ensure they reached the hands of people and pets who genuinely liked Little Xunbao.
If they were sold in stores, people might buy them because the dolls were cute or because they knew something about Little Treasure Hunter, but not to the point of genuine liking them. In that case, the dolls would be essentially wasted.
It’s better to ensure the dolls reach people and pets who genuinely like Little Treasure Hunter. Qiao Sang suddenly thought of something and said,
“Why don’t you start a live stream?”
“Xunxun?”
Little Treasure looked puzzled and called out.
Why start a live stream?
“Most of the people and pets watching your live stream like you,” Qiao Sang said. “You can pick some familiar fans who specifically come to watch each live stream and give them the dolls.”
“Xunxun?”
Little Treasure called out, wondering what if everyone was no longer on Tianyuan Star?
Although its popularity had increased significantly, its fans were still the fewest on Tianyuan Star.
Qiao Sang smiled and said, “Your fans are all over the interstellar space. Don’t worry, with such a large population and animal population
on Tianyuan Star, there are definitely fans who genuinely like you.” She had counted the number of dolls; there were only a hundred. Even if Xiao Xunbao had the fewest fans on Tianyuan Star, she should still be able to find a hundred who genuinely liked it.
Hearing this, Xiao Xunbao raised its paw, scratched its head, and became a little embarrassed.
But soon, it lowered its paw again, showing a serious expression, and called out,
“Xunxun~”
It felt the same way.
After saying that, Xiao Xunbao picked up its phone, ready to start a live stream, wishing it could find fans who genuinely liked it right now and send all the dolls away.
Qiao Sang instructed,
“There are only a hundred dolls, so you must carefully select the fans. It’s best to choose some who are closer to our current location so that we can send them over faster.”
After the mental link is successful, if you want to feel the power of emotions through the medium, the distance cannot be too far. Let alone being separated by a planet, even if separated by a country, the mental link may break at any time, and you won’t be able to feel the emotions on the other end.
Therefore, according to the information available, pets capable of absorbing faith power generally reside in one country, where statues are erected. It’s rare to find pets with this ability having statues in other countries.
She didn’t know much about this, but she did know that the range of the mental link varied depending on the pet’s level and proficiency. If
the distance was too far, the mental link would fail or even break. Little Xunbao had just learned the mental link, so its sensing range couldn’t be too far.
If she could find a nearby fan and confirm that Little Xunbao could sense and absorb the fan’s genuine affection through the mental link with the doll, she could directly add skill points and quickly increase its proficiency.
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao called out while operating the phone, indicating that it understood and would personally deliver the doll to its true fan.
Qiao Sang understood Little Xunbao’s plan, her lips twitching, and said,
“Don’t teleport there to deliver it in person.”
“Xunxun?”
Little Xunbao stopped, looked up, and called out with a puzzled expression.
Why?
Qiao Sang patiently explained,
“You’re practically a famous beast now, every move you make attracts attention. If I personally deliver it to someone, there will definitely be online discussions. There are plenty of smart people online; they might analyze that you’re trying to absorb energy through the doll. If that’s the case, delivering the doll will seem purposeful, and people’s liking for you might decrease.”
“Besides, you can’t completely judge whether someone genuinely likes you based solely on how long they watch your livestream. Some haters will also keep following their disliked characters.”
“If you unfortunately find a hater, they might discover the hidden spiritual power in the doll and then use it to locate you.”
“In short, there are many hidden dangers.”
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao showed a “how scary!” expression and cried out, indicating it wouldn’t deliver it to the other person. It would deliver it to their house when they weren’t around and then leave.
Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and said,
“That’s not a good idea either.”
“Xunxun?”
Little Xunbao looked puzzled.
Why?
Qiao Sang paused for two seconds, then said tactfully, “People usually associate dolls that suddenly appear in their homes with bad omens. Once you find fans who genuinely like you, just have the delivery person bring them.”
This was half-truth. It’s true that people often associate dolls that suddenly appear in their homes with bad omens, and some are even afraid of them. However, these dolls are mostly ghost-type pets, because many people are afraid of being cursed.
Many horror movies show similar scenes.
But if it’s a pet of another type, people are more likely to be surprised and wonder who sent it.
Even if the sender is a fan of Xiao Xunbao, if that person encounters bad luck later and discovers the hidden spiritual power within the doll, it’s hard not to overthink and connect the dots.
There’s no need to specifically tell Xiao Xunbao about this prejudice against ghost-type pets.
“Xunxun,”
Xiao Xunbao showed an “okay” expression, then turned on its live stream, quickly got into the zone, enthusiastically waved its paw at the screen, and called out:
“Xunxun~”
“Everyone, I’m back~”
Qiao Sang watched quietly from outside the screen, not disturbing anyone.
The morning sun slowly rose.
Qiao Sang opened the window, enjoying the cool breeze, looking at the scenery outside, and taking a sip of her freshly poured juice.
It was still early, and there weren’t many people or pets on the street, only a few flying pets flying overhead.
Suddenly, Qiao Sang sensed something, turned her head in a certain direction, and greeted,
“You’re back.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiu Bu Gu appeared in her sights.
It looked surprised and called out,
“Jiu Jiu?”
You woke up so early today?
Jiu Bu Gu had floated out to play after dinner last night and only just returned, so it didn’t know when Qiao Sang had woken up.
“I didn’t sleep much last night,” Qiao Sang said.
“Jiu Jiu?”
Jiu Bu Gu floated into the house, calling out, indicating why she hadn’t slept.
“It’s not that I didn’t sleep, I just slept for a little while,” Qiao Sang explained. “I woke up in the middle of the night to train Little Xunbao’s mental link.”
“Jiujiu.”
Jiu Bugu looked at him with a sigh and called out. After saying
how hard
he had worked, it scanned the living room and looked at Little Xunbao, who was livestreaming by the coffee table, and called out:
“Jiujiu?”
Wasn’t it training its mental link? Why was it still livestreaming?
“It has already learned it,” Qiao Sang said. “Now it’s selecting fans in the livestream who genuinely like it.”
Because there were only a hundred plush toys, Little Xunbao was being quite careful in its selection, hence the current livestream.
Jiu Bugu’s expression froze for a moment, and it called out:
“Jiujiu?”
It has already learned it?
Qiao Sang nodded and said “Mmm.”
“Jiujiu!”
Jiu Bugu’s voice suddenly rose and it called out.
So fast!
The loud voice woke up Michaela and Ya Bao in the room.
“Xunxun~”
In the living room, Little Xunbao turned to look at Jiu Bugu, revealing a bright yet feignedly humble expression. It flicked its paw forward and barked, indicating that it hadn’t learned it quickly; it had only tried four times under the guidance of its own beast tamer.
Qiao Sang: “…”
Was it being arrogant?
“Jiu Jiu?”
Jiu Bugu’s eyes widened, and it barked.
It learned it after only four attempts?
“Xun Xun~”
Little Xunbao nodded.
“Jiu Jiu!” Jiu
Bugu praised sincerely.
This was amazing!
Even though it was an Emperor-level pet, learning high-level skills had never been so easy.
“Xun Xun~”
Little Xunbao couldn’t suppress its smile and barked, indicating that it was nothing.
At this moment, Mikaela, with disheveled hair, pushed open the door and asked,
“What did you learn?”
Just as it finished speaking, the door to Qiao Sang’s room opened, and Qingbao and Gangbao also came out one after another.
Seeing this, Little Xunbao quickly waved its paws to the audience, then ended its broadcast at lightning speed, preparing to chat with Qingbao and the others about learning the Mental Link.
Just as it ended its broadcast, Qiao Sang said,
“It’s Mental Link! Little Xunbao learned it last night.”
Qingbao: “!!!”
Qingbao looked at Little Xunbao in shock.
Penjami, whose face had been drowsy, suddenly became alert and looked at Little Xunbao.
Michaela looked bewildered: “Learned it last night?”
“Xunxun~”
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Little Xunbao felt relieved, puffed out its chest, and called out brightly, indicating yes.
After speaking, it even gave Qingbao a proud glance.
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao gritted its teeth secretly, a slightly irritated breeze blowing around it.
“So annoying, so annoying!”
Qiao Sang pretended not to hear the wind around him and laughed,
“I learned it last night. Little Xunbao is very smart; it only took four tries to learn it.”
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao didn’t mince words and nodded, indicating that it was correct.
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao gritted its teeth a little harder.
“It seems Little Xunbao’s talent is even higher than I imagined,” Michaela remarked.
Under the halo of Qiao Sang, who became an S-rank Beastmaster at the age of 18, Michaela was only stunned for a moment before easily accepting the news.
“Penpen?”
Penjiamei couldn’t help but call out, indicating how it was trained. Was it according to the method it taught?
“More or less,” Qiao Sang said, “It’s just that Little Xunbao’s training object was changed from a doll to a substitute.”
Penjiamei thought for a moment and understood, calling out emotionally,
“Penpen.”
How come it hadn’t thought of that?
Michaela chuckled,
“Using a substitute as the target does make it easier to learn the mental link, but the main reason is that Little Treasure’s talent is too high. I’ve never seen any pet learn a high-level secondary attribute skill in such a short time.”
Tingbao, who had just twisted its body and flown out of the room, glanced at Michaela.
“Xunxun~”
Little Treasure puffed out its chest, nodded proudly, and called out, indicating that it had seen it.
Qingbao couldn’t stand Little Treasure’s smugness, so it looked at its own beast master, called out, and changed the subject:
“Qingqing.”
It was hungry.
“I’ll order some food.” Qiao Sang picked up her phone and started contacting the butler.
The hotel room that Teacher Michaela booked this time still had a dedicated butler service, and the hotel also took care of all kinds of food. If the hotel didn’t have what you wanted to eat, you could tell the butler, and they would specially go out to buy it and deliver it to your door.
Half an hour later, the dining table was full of various hot dishes.
Beside him, streaks of yellow electricity appeared on Tingbao’s body, then converged into a single beam, channeling all its energy into the Object-Knowing Monster.
The Object-Knowing Monster wore an expression of enjoyment, and after a moment, it called out,
“Shishi.
I’m full. “
Tingbao dissipated its lightning power, not immediately going to eat breakfast, but instead calling out,
“Tingting.
Your recharging time is getting shorter and shorter. “
The Object-Knowing Monster’s heart skipped a beat.
Just as it was thinking about how to reply, Tingbao called out again,
“Tingting.
Don’t worry about me, I can feed you first. “
The Object-Knowing Monster was silent for two seconds, sighed, and called out,
“Shishi.
Okay, I’m still a little hungry. “
Tingbao gave a “I knew it” look, and without another word, streaks of yellow electricity reappeared on its body, concentrating on the Object-Knowing Monster.
The Object-Knowing Monster cursed inwardly, but outwardly maintained an expression of enjoyment.
Meanwhile, at the dining table, Michaela, while enjoying breakfast, asked,
“How do you plan to give the doll to the people and pets who like Little Treasure Hunter?”
“Little Treasure Hunter will stream in the livestream,” Qiao Sang explained, then added, “Little Treasure Hunter has been streaming since learning its skills, so the fan base should be pretty much set.”
She then looked at Little Treasure Hunter, asking with her eyes if that was correct.
“Xunxun~”
Little Treasure Hunter swallowed an energy pill, looked troubled, and meowed, indicating that it felt everyone liked it, making it difficult to choose.
Qingbao rolled its eyes beside it.
Qiao Sang: “.”
Qiao Sang asked, “Have you almost made your choices?”
“Xunxun~”
Little Treasure Hunter nodded and meowed, indicating that although it was difficult, it had already made its selections. (End of Chapter)
