Its eyes glowed red as it scanned passengers one by one. 𐍂\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lightseeker Beast, with its x-ray-like Perception Trait, could conduct full-body scans without causing harm to humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before its discovery, airport staff relied on handheld detectors to find metal objects. However, concealed items, like capsule-sized contraband, often went unnoticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With its ability to scan without violating privacy or causing harm, the Lightseeker Beast became indispensable at airports, significantly increasing its value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang stood still as the beast scanned her from head to toe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Light.” The red glow faded, and the Lightseeker Beast gestured for her to proceed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Plane\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in the plush seats of the first-class cabin, Qiao Sang stretched out comfortably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The direct flight to the Ancient Guwu Region would take over ten hours. Finally getting a taste of luxury, she wasn’t about to skimp on herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this upgrade really free?” Xu Yixuan asked excitedly from a seat nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, I had an upgrade voucher.” Qiao Sang replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since she felt bad about making her teacher and Xu Yixuan endure a long flight in economy class, she had used her voucher to upgrade them as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I love you!” Xu Yixuan grinned widely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When we land, I’ll treat you to dinner!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Boyi, seated nearby, smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need for that. When we land, just let me know what you’d like to eat, I’ll treat you instead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three continued chatting until the plane took off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gazing out the window, Qiao Sang felt an unusual sense of loneliness without her beasts, Yabao and Little Treasure, by her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the first-class seat reclined into a bed, Qiao Sang closed her eyes, mentally reviewing the data she’d sorted yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The files, compiled by different people, contained overlapping yet varied information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, most reports on Ancient Guwu Region’s Qin Shuoran mentioned his advanced beast, Optimistic Sea Lion, possessing two advanced skills, withSteam Explosionat intermediate mastery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a few reports stated the skill had reached advanced mastery. To err on the side of caution, Qiao Sang noted it as advanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similarly, regarding Lianke Region’s Yuan Xiaotian, only one out of 31 reports mentioned his advanced beast, Healing Bloom, having the Chlorophyll Trait, a trait that doubles speed in sunny weather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the lack of consensus, Qiao Sang included the trait in her notes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes:Always prepare for the strongest version of your opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing her mental review, her thoughts drifted to Lubao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given Lubao’s description, it was clear finding the place would be near impossible.
