Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 968

Chapter 968: Chapter 786: Why Don’t We... (Too Short, Suggested to Be Read with the Next Chapter)

The two of them arrived at another bar.

This place was more chaotic, filled with the smell of smoke, alcohol, and sweat.

Qiao Sang instinctively frowned.

Under the alternating flashes of light pollution, the DJ on stage energetically mixed his tracks.

At least the performer this time was an actual person... Qiao Sang thought to herself.

"Xun!"

"Xun Xun!"

Little Xunbao appeared, and unconsciously started nodding its head to the rhythm of the music.

Qiao Sang scanned the surroundings, trying to spot any Pet Beasts that might resemble Adinixi.

Soon, her gaze met with a beast whose body was mostly black, with yellow eyes and six round disc-like structures extended on either side of its head.

"Jie Jie?"

Just as Qiao Sang was about to look away, the beast approached with a friendly smile and called out.

"Ya Ya."

Yaobao helpfully translated.

This guy’s asking if you want to pet its head.

How forward... Qiao Sang was just about to decline when Billet interjected:

"That’s Jie Nao Yuan Yuan. Its spiritual power is incredibly strong. It’s said that anyone who pets its head will experience heightened brain activity and get an instant energy boost."

That does sound interesting... Qiao Sang glanced at Jie Nao Yuan Yuan’s head, her hand itching to reach out.

"Gangzhan?"

Suddenly, Gangbao called out to Jie Nao Yuan Yuan, seemingly asking if petting came at a price.

"Jie Jie."

Jie Nao Yuan Yuan’s expression said it all: "Of course."

Though Qiao Sang couldn’t understand Jie Nao Yuan Yuan’s language, she understood Gangbao’s words. Coupled with Jie Nao Yuan Yuan’s expression, she didn’t need Yaobao to translate to get what was going on.

What the hell, so it’s asking for money? No wonder it randomly came over to offer head-petting... Instantly sobering up, Qiao Sang shook her head and refused. "No petting."

She had heard that some wild Pet Beasts in the lower districts did odd jobs in human society to earn Alliance Currency. Beasts like this, willing to trade services for money and then spend it on what they needed, generally wouldn’t attack humans unprovoked.

Rejected, Jie Nao Yuan Yuan turned around without a word and walked away.

"How did you know it wanted money?" Qiao Sang looked at Gangbao and asked.

"Gangzhan."

Gangbao flapped its wings, indicating that it was obvious.

True, Gangbao had lived in the lower districts before and was fairly familiar with how things worked there. Unfortunately, Gangbao wasn’t originally from the Thirtieth District; otherwise, it might’ve been able to rally its kin to help with the search... Suddenly, a thought struck Qiao Sang, and her eyes lit up. She called out to Jie Nao Yuan Yuan’s retreating figure: _{fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm}

"Wait!"

Changed your mind about petting it? Billet glanced at Qiao Sang.

"Jie Jie."

Jie Nao Yuan Yuan was good-natured and came back with a smile.

Qiao Sang took out her phone, tapped on the screen, and showed it a picture of Adinixi. "If you see this Pet Beast, head to the Beast Taming Center and find me. I’ll pay you a generous amount of Alliance Currency as a reward."

The Thirtieth District was teeming with wild Pet Beasts. If they could enlist wild Pet Beasts to help with the search, the chances of finding Adinixi would increase significantly!

Since Jie Nao Yuan Yuan seemed eager to earn money, it shouldn’t refuse.

"Jie Jie!"

After listening, Jie Nao Yuan Yuan shifted its gaze from the phone to Qiao Sang’s face, showing an "offended" expression before turning and walking away.

Qiao Sang: "..."

She couldn’t understand what it said, but it sure felt like a profanity-laden rejection...

"Why didn’t it agree?" Qiao Sang asked, puzzled.

"Maybe it thinks you’re trying to harm Adinixi," Billet suggested, turning to look at her. "Gaining a wild Pet Beast’s trust is really difficult, especially for the wild Pet Beasts of Chao Su Star. To them, humans are humans, while other wild Pet Beasts are allies who must resist humankind together. In its eyes, your request may have looked like a scheme to capture and harm Adinixi."

"Gangzhan."

Gangbao nodded, confirming Billet’s analysis.

Just great. Now she came off as the villain. The trust between humans and wild Pet Beasts? Nope, nonexistent... Qiao Sang sighed.

"Gangzhan."

At that moment, Gangbao pointed with its wing at her phone and then at the distant figure of Jie Nao Yuan Yuan, conveying the idea of using the phone to try again itself.

"Alright!" Qiao Sang perked up dramatically, handing over the phone.

If nothing else, she trusted Gangbao to be reliable.

Soon enough, Gangbao headed toward Jie Nao Yuan Yuan with the phone.

"Gangzhan."
