Chapter 271: Chapter 259: Local Heterochromia
“Xun?”
Xiao Xunbao, upon hearing his Beast Tamer’s words, first showed a puzzled expression, then anxiously teleported in front of the full-length mirror in the living room to look at himself.
The next second, Xiao Xunbao’s screams echoed throughout the house.
“Xun!!!”
Two minutes later.
In the living room.
“Ya Ya…”
Yaobao patted the weeping Xiao Xunbao with his paw as a sign of comfort.
It’s just that you’ve shrunk a bit after evolving, no big deal…
“Xun Xun!”
Seeing Yaobao, who was now N times his size, Xiao Xunbao cried even harder.
Why is there such a big difference between our evolutions!
“Lulu.”
Shuilu Yana nodded in agreement beside them.
The difference is indeed quite significant.
“Xun!”
Qiao Sang watched from the sofa as her three Pet Beasts interacted, feeling reassured. With Yaobao and Shuilu Yana comforting Xiao Xunbao, things shouldn’t be too bad…
She picked up her phone and went online to look for answers.
Although Xiao Xunbao now looked much better than a regular Treasure-seeking Demon, this was still not a normal situation.
In the real world, it was basically very difficult to meet someone with a contracted Treasure-seeking Ghost, but online, as soon as you searched for issues related to “Treasure-seeking Ghost,” a bunch of Beast Tamers with contracted Treasure-seeking Ghosts would appear to discuss below.
Qiao Sang went to the forum.
She posted a thread titled “#Why did my Treasure-seeking Ghost evolve into a smaller version of Treasure-seeking Demon, and why is the color slightly different#”.
Shortly after, she received dozens of comments.
“Without understanding, are you just showing off?”
“No picture, no truth—unless you show us a photo.”
“One look at the poster’s ID, and you know they’re a regular braggart.”
Showing off?
Qiao Sang was somewhat baffled for a moment. What does showing off have to do with this?
As she pondered, dozens more replies popped up in the thread.
“Could it be that the Treasure-seeking Ghost was malnourished, leading to the smaller size after evolution into a Treasure-seeking Demon?”
“The one above is an honest person, assessment complete.”
“Let’s disperse. Why gather here to listen to the poster boast?”
“How can you talk about the poster like that? Don’t you know online that everyone has at least one variant colored Pet Beast?”
Variant color?
Qiao Sang stared at these words for a moment, then instantly understood why the netizens mentioned showing off—they assumed she was boasting about the different color of her Treasure-seeking Demon.
She looked up at Xiao Xunbao, who was still engulfed in sorrow, and quickly shook her head to rid herself of the impractical thoughts.
Xiao Xunbao already belonged to the Psychic Series. If he also had a variant color, wouldn’t that be defying the heavens?!
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Qiao Sang typed a reply:
“I’m seriously here to ask a question. I can guarantee that my Treasure-seeking Demon is not a variant colored Pet Beast. Its body is the same grey as a normal Treasure-seeking Demon, only the tip of its tail is a slightly different color. Putting color aside for now, the main issue I don’t understand is its size.”
Immediately, netizens commented below:
“Don’t you know about partial variant coloring?”
“Damn, at first I thought the poster was just bragging, but with this explanation, it seems like it might be true.”
“If I’m not mistaken, your Treasure-seeking Demon might be a Pet Beast with partial variant coloring. Some part-variant colored creatures might have a certain chance of an energy anomaly, making it possible for their size to differ after evolution from other beasts of the same species, like Cui Tong’s Whirlwind Colt that has only a variant colored tail but is twice the size of other Whirlwind Colts.”
“The one above actually took it seriously…”
“The analysis in post 47 makes sense, but have you considered that the poster only noticed the different color after the Treasure-seeking Ghost evolved into a Treasure-seeking Demon? That means the color was normal when it was a Treasure-seeking Ghost. Variant colored beasts are usually determined at birth; it’s not likely that they become variant colored only after evolving.”
“Brother speaks the truth; I was wrong.”
