Chapter 586 The Problematic Object-Recognizing Monster (Part 2)

“Qingqing?”

Qingbao perked up, quickly taking the yellow crystal and exclaiming with delight.

This is Dragon Flash Amber?

“Antenna.”

Wire Beast nodded.

“Xiaxia!”

Xiabao called out happily, indicating that the Dragon Flash Amber was exactly what their Beastmaster was looking for!

“Qingqing.”

Qingbao nodded happily as well.

This should be it.

“Antenna.”

Wire Beast understood, smiled, and called out, indicating that the gift was exactly what they needed, which was wonderful.

“Qingqing.”

Qingbao looked at it, her eyes crinkling, and called out, indicating that this gift was nice, and she accepted it.

…

On the other side.

Qiao Sang and Ya Bao had moved to another street.

Ya Bao’s eyes glowed blue.

All the items on the entire street were simultaneously controlled and suspended in mid-air by an invisible, powerful force.

Qiao Sang and Gang Bao searched everywhere.

After searching for a while, Gang Bao suddenly noticed something, turned to look at the motionless Object Recognition Monster, and called out:

“Gang Quan?”

Why aren’t you looking anymore?

“Every day…

because searching like this is impossible…” The Object-Knowing Monster thought to itself, but calmly called out,

“Shishi.” ”

I’m getting tired of searching. ”

Hearing this, Qiao Sang turned around and suggested,

“Why don’t you go back and recharge Tingbao?”

The Object-Knowing Monster: “…”

“Shishi,”

the Object-Knowing Monster called out, indicating it wasn’t so tired as to need recharging yet, and could wait for them.

“Then you should rest for a bit,” Qiao Sang said, continuing the search.

Gangbao also began searching.

Yabao stayed put, its eyes glowing blue, maintaining its telekinesis.

The Object-Knowing Monster watched for a while, feeling a pang of pity, and finally called out,

“Shishi.” ”

You won’t find it by searching like this. ”

“I know the chances of finding it are slim,” Qiao Sang said, not stopping her search. “But we should try, just in case.”

The Object-Knowing Monster sighed heavily inwardly and called out twice,

“Know-knowing.”

“Know-knowing.”

What you’re looking for is Tingbao’s evolution material, so it definitely contains energy. You can’t just search by appearance; many energy-containing materials don’t appear out in the open like that. You have to sense where there are special energy fluctuations to have a chance of finding it.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang and Gangbao both stopped what they were doing and turned to look at it.

“Sensing energy fluctuations?” Qiao Sang blurted out.

“Know-knowing.”

“Know-knowing.”

The Object-Knowing Monster nodded and called out twice, indicating that although energy exists in the world, the energy fluctuations contained in special materials are different. If a pet with the same energy as the material were to sense it, it would be easier to detect. You should let Tingbao come and search.

Upon hearing this, the first thought that flashed through Qiao Sang’s mind was: That makes perfect sense! Compared to searching blindly on a large scale, searching by sensing special energy is definitely much more effective.

Then came the second thought: Why does the Object-Knowing Monster seem to know so much? It’s nothing like an ordinary low-level mechanical pet…

Just then, Steel Treasure’s voice rang in their minds:

“Steel Power.”

I also felt it knew too much, unlike an ordinary mechanical pet.

Something’s wrong with it… This thought flashed through both Qiao Sang and Steel Treasure’s minds simultaneously.

Different types of mechanics create different types of mechanical pets, including knowledge-based mechanical pets. These mechanical pets are knowledgeable about many things; they can answer any question that can be found online.

But the Object-Knowing Monster clearly doesn’t belong to this category; it shouldn’t know so much.

Seeing that Qiao Sang hadn’t spoken for a while, the Object-Knowing Monster suddenly realized it had said too much and called out:

“Knowledgeable.”

These were things its own beast tamer had told it before.

“Do you believe it?” Qiao Sang asked in her mind.

“Steel Power,”

Steel Treasure called out, indicating half-believing, half-doubting.

“Tooth!”

While they were communicating, Tooth Treasure called out, indicating that they should quickly get Ting Treasure to come and find them!

Qiao Sang: “…”

Qiao Sang said, “I’ll have Tingbao come and try.”

Although she felt that the Object Recognition Monster might be a bit complicated, it had indeed been diligently helping to find alien pets during this time, and right now, the important thing was indeed to find the Dragon Flash Amber.

Qiao Sang raised her hand, preparing to form a hand seal to summon it.

However, just as she was making the second hand seal gesture, Qingbao’s voice suddenly came from not far away:

“Qingqing!”

Qiao Sang stopped and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Qingbao and Xiabao floating over happily.

“What’s wrong? Why are you so happy? Have you found the Wire Beast?” Qiao Sang asked.

“Qingqing.”

Qingbao floated to its Beastmaster’s side and nodded.

Finding the Wire Beast wouldn’t make Qingbao so happy; it seemed that the gift it gave was very much to Qingbao’s liking… Qiao Sang asked with a smile, “What did it give you?”

“Qingqing!”

Qingbao brushed against the white clouds on its body, took out a yellow crystal from them, and called out.

It gave me the Dragon Flash Amber!

“Dragon Flash Amber?!” Qiao Sang’s voice suddenly rose.

“Qingqing.”

Qingbao nodded with a smile.

At the same time, a pleasant breeze blew around it.

It knew its beast tamer needed this.

“Really?” Qiao Sang held the Dragon Sparkle in Qing Bao’s paw, examining it carefully.

Gang Bao leaned closer.

The Object-Knowing Monster looked astonished.

What a coincidence? This human named Qiao Sang needed Dragon Sparkle, and Qing Bao’s gift was Dragon Sparkle?

It remembered their previous conversation; this should be a rare material.

The Object-Knowing Monster looked at the human before it, a complex expression flashing across its face.

This human was undoubtedly favored by this world…

“Ya Ya?”

Ya Bao, still using its telekinesis, called out.

It found Dragon Sparkle?

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Bao nodded and called out.

The blue light in Ya Bao’s eyes faded.

All the suspended objects on the street fell down at once, making loud “bang bang bang” sounds.

“It really is Dragon Sparkle…”

Dust flew, water splashed, and everything fell. Amidst the chaos, Qiao Sang stood there, looking at the yellow crystal in her hand, overjoyed.

“Qing Qing.”

Qing Bao called out triumphantly, indicating that it was of course Dragon Sparkle; it wouldn’t lie.

Gangbao glanced at Qingbao.

He hadn’t expected to get the Dragon Flash Amber so easily… Qiao Sang laughed inwardly, but outwardly he also laughed, though he restrained himself considerably:

“Hahahaha! That’s great! This trip wasn’t in vain, all thanks to you, Qingbao!”

“Qingqing,”

Qingbao called out, indicating that it didn’t have anything else.

Its tone was humble, but its expression was somewhat smug.

“Of course it’s all thanks to me, of course it’s all thanks to me…” Qiao Sang pretended not to hear the sound of the wind around them, saying,

“This was originally a gift from the Electric Wire Beast, but now it has to be given to Tingbao, so you don’t have a gift. Is there anything you want? I’ll buy it for you.”

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao looked thoughtful, calling out, indicating that it needed to think about it carefully.

After merging with the tornado, Qingbao really followed its heart quite a bit. If it were before, it would definitely have pretended not to need anything… Qiao Sang was inexplicably happy for Qingbao, and said gently,

“No rush, take your time thinking about it. You can tell me anytime you’ve decided.”

“Qingqing,”

Qingbao’s eyes curved into a smile, and it nodded.

“Let’s go.” Josang put away the Dragon Flash Amber and looked at Steel Treasure.

“Steel Treasure.” Steel Treasure called out, pressed the miniature shrinking bracelet, and its size slowly increased.

The Object-Knowing Monster’s eyes glowed blue.

Josang and Tooth Treasure disappeared from their spot and appeared on Steel Treasure’s back.

Steel Treasure flapped its giant wings, creating a powerful gust of air as it flew into the sky, quickly turning into a black dot.

…

Ten minutes later.

Hotel room.

Josang opened the hotel room door.

“Why are you back so quickly?” Michaela sat on the sofa, somewhat surprised.

You know, Josang had only been gone for a little over an hour.

Josang closed the door, turned around and smiled:

“Because the Dragon Flash Amber has been found.”

Thunder Treasure, who was closing its eyes to digest the power of lightning, suddenly straightened up and looked over.

“Dragon Flash Amber?” Michaela was stunned at first, then showed a look of astonishment:

“The Dragon Flash Amber has been found?”

She remembered that Josang went out to find the Electric Wire Beast and the alien pet beast, how did she find the Dragon Flash Amber?

Did she buy it from a store?

Just as Michaela was lost in thought, Josang smiled and said,

“Qingbao found the Wire Beast that wanted to give it a gift. Dragon Flash Amber is the gift from the Wire Beast.”

“Qingqing,”

Qingbao nodded.

Upon hearing this, Michaela looked surprised again: “The Wire Beast can actually give such a valuable gift.”

Saying that, he stood up, walked over quickly, and said,

“Let me see.”

Josang took out the Dragon Flash Amber from his pocket and handed it over.

Michaela took it.

Tingbao’s eyes were fixed on the moving yellow crystal.

Michaela picked up the yellow crystal, squinted at it in the light, and examined it carefully, both impressed and delighted:

“This is real Dragon Flash Amber.”

Tingbao’s eyes lit up.

“I didn’t expect that finding the Wire Beast would bring such a surprise,” Josang smiled.

Michaela put down the Dragon Sparkle, glanced at Tingbao, and suddenly thought of something. She said,

“It is indeed a Dragon Sparkle, but we don’t know its exact level yet. Tingbao is still some time away from evolving, so I think it’s best to test the level of this Dragon Sparkle. If the level is too low, I think we need to look for more.”

Tingbao’s eyes flickered, unusually showing no displeasure at Michaela’s words.

Indeed, to evolve more perfectly, a higher-level evolution item is definitely needed… Qiao Sang nodded, “I’ll take it to be tested tomorrow.”

Then, she thought of something, looked at Tingbao, and said,

“Tingbao, recharge the Item Recognizer; it’s a little tired.”

Item Recognizer: “…”

“Tingting.”

Tingbao nodded, twisting its body to the Item Recognizer’s side, crackling yellow lightning appearing on its body, controlling the energy to concentrate and strike the Item Recognizer.

The Item Recognizer’s lips curled up, revealing an expression of enjoyment.

Qiao Sang looked at the Item Recognizer thoughtfully.

…

It was one in the morning, the moonlight was hazy, and the thunder had stopped.

In a hotel room,

Qiao Sang lay on her side on the bed, holding her phone, searching for information about the Object-Recognizing Monster.

Suddenly, Gang Bao’s voice rang in her mind:

“Gang Quan?”

Why aren’t you asleep yet?

“I want to see the information on the Object Recognition Monster,” Qiao Sang responded in her mind.

“Steel Power?”

Steel Treasure called out in her mind, indicating whether she had found anything.

“Nothing.” Qiao Sang put down her phone, rolled over, and put her hands behind her head, saying in her mind, “There’s really too little information about the Object Recognition Monster.”

“Steel Power.”

Steel Treasure responded in her mind after a two-second silence.

Actually, aside from occasionally behaving like a mechanical-type pet that wasn’t up to its level, the Object Recognition Monster was otherwise fine.

“I know,” Qiao Sang said in her mind, “I just think it’s weird, like it’s hiding something.”

“Steel Power?”

Steel Treasure called out, indicating whether she wanted to get a different Object Recognition Monster.

Qiao Sang was silent for a few seconds, recalling her interactions with the Object Recognition Monster, and said,

“No, everyone and every pet has their own secrets. The Object Recognition Monster just needs to help identify alien pets.”

“Steel Power.”

Steel Treasure called out, indicating that it felt the same way.

Qiao Sang and Steel Treasure stopped communicating, closed their eyes simultaneously, and drifted off to sleep.

…

At the same time.

On the street, under the pale yellow streetlights, the Object-Knowing Monster walked along, sniffing the air.

“Grumble…”

its stomach suddenly growled.

“Every day…”

the Object-Knowing Monster sighed heavily.

It wondered when this would end…

The

next morning, Qiao Sang got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Little Treasure appeared out of thin air at the door. After glancing at the still-sleeping Qing Bao, it floated into the bathroom, came to its Beastmaster’s side, and whispered,

“Xun Xun?”

When are we going to participate in the competition?

Qiao Sang put down her toothbrush, glanced at it, and asked, “Why did you suddenly think of the competition?”

“Xun Xun~”

Little Treasure called out shyly, indicating that the prophecy was true—wasn’t it evolving in the competition? So I want to participate.

Qiao Sang chuckled, “That depends on your energy reaching at least the late-stage Emperor level.”

“Xun Xun…”

Little Treasure wilted, then, as if remembering something, turned to look outside, and then whispered again,

“Xun Xun?”

Could you slow down Qing Bao’s evolution?

Qiao Sang looked at it with a “what do you think?” look.

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao drooped again.

“Actually, you don’t need to worry too much,” Qiao Sang comforted it. “Even if Qingbao evolves, it won’t be stronger than you right away. You have the Same Destruction ability and so many curse-type abilities. It won’t really do anything to you. Besides, it’s wearing the Calming Bell now. Just don’t deliberately provoke it.”

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao looked like it really was, and called out, indicating that it felt Qingbao’s temper had gotten much worse.

“Because it’s still fusing with the tornado and has been affected by the violent energy. It will be better once it’s fully fused,” Qiao Sang said.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao’s eyes lit up, and it called out, indicating that it really was?

I’m not sure either… Qiao Sang smiled and said,

“Of course it’s true.”

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao smiled happily.

Qiao Sang continued brushing her teeth, when suddenly she thought of something. After rinsing her mouth, she looked at Xiao Xunbao and asked,

“Regarding absorbing energy through the mental link, how much can you absorb now?”
