Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193 -183: Hey Kid, Come Over Here

Though the current Beast Taming society appears peaceful on the surface, where there are people, there is a dark side.

Before Pet Beasts became popular, there were only human traffickers, but as the Beast Taming society developed, the profession of beast traffickers emerged.

Those engaged in this profession are typically ordinary people or low-level Beast Tamers.

They neither dare venture into Secret Realms to capture Pet Beasts, nor dare lay hands on those that have undergone any evolution.

Because even those that have evolved only once generally are not very small in size, and a mid-level Pet Beast upon sensing something amiss can cause quite a stir with a random release of a skill.

What’s more, even if they were successful, in the event the Beast Tamer who owns the mid-level Pet Beast is ranked E or above, not only would the risk escalate dramatically, but also the traffickers couldn’t forcibly break the contract with the beast.

So the targets of their trafficking are without exception small-sized, naive, and easily deceived low-level Pet Beasts.

Of course, beast trafficking is an isolated incident, and every time it happens, it makes the social news.

After all, there are very few people engaged in this line of work nowadays.

The last time a beast trafficker made the news was three months ago.

According to his confession, he had staked out a training institution for a month and finally set his sights on a small Jupu without a Beast Tamer to pick it up.

So he spent a fortune to buy Fragrant Fruit, which was highly attractive to Grass-type Pet Beasts, and, just as he expected, the small Jupu grew close to him.

Later, he convinced it to come with him for more Fragrant Fruit and successfully took the small Jupu onto a long-distance hacker bus that required no identity verification.

Since the contract would allow the Beast Tamer to sense any abnormalities in the Pet Beast’s body, he could only appease the small Jupu with good food and drink while the hacker bus had not yet left the area.

As a result, that very evening, in a flash of white light, the small Jupu evolved into a Huan Tianpu.

But that wasn’t all.

One minute later, while eating the Fragrant Fruit he had bought with borrowed money, the Huan Tianpu suddenly disappeared from the hacker bus.

The beast trafficker was instantaneously dumbfounded.

It was only after his arrest that he learned that the owner of the small Jupu was a B-rank Beast Tamer, and the small Jupu was his fifth contracted Pet Beast.

No matter where the small Jupu wandered off to, as long as it was still in the area, it could be summoned back directly with a B-rank Beast Taming Codex.

And his presence was fully revealed by the now evolved Huan Tianpu.

After learning the truth, the beast trafficker broke down in tears on the spot, vowed to turn over a new leaf, and swore off the trafficking business forever.

After the news reported the incident, quite a few beast traffickers washed their hands of their past deeds, and the already rare cases of Pet Beast trafficking hadn’t occurred even once in several months.

However, Qiao Sang felt he couldn’t be careless.

After all, it wasn’t that there were no beast traffickers left, just fewer of them.

Pet Beasts like Ke Guan Miao that walked down the street exuding the aura of Alliance Currency could be targeted at any moment.

The Beast Tamer of Ke Guan Miao is really careless… Qiao Sang silently reflected and then asked, “How did it come to specify Treasure-seeking Ghost?”

“I recommended it,” the receptionist replied. “It wanted to find a low-level Pet Beast capable of Teleportation to spar with, and your Treasure-seeking Ghost is the only one in our club that fits the bill.”

…

After getting a clear understanding of Ke Guan Miao’s information, Qiao Sang walked into Training Field No. 2.

There he saw a Pet Beast wearing a sun hat and sunglasses sitting in the first row of the spectator seats, elegantly eating the complimentary fruit provided by the club.

Qiao Sang was stunned for a while, if he hadn’t known in advance that the other party was Ke Guan Miao, he might not have recognized it with the hat and sunglasses on.

“Ke Guan?”

Ke Guan Miao, hearing the commotion, turned its head and tilted it elegantly.

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, then spoke up, “Xiao Xunbao, translate for me.”

“Xun~”
