Chapter 1015

It opened just like that? Qiao Sang was both pleasantly surprised and a bit unexpected.

"Ouo." The purple skull head poked out of the window and called out.

Even if Qiao Sang couldn't understand what it was saying, she knew she could go in, so she quickly said thank you and walked in.

Just after walking two steps, she retreated and asked:

"Which building is Dr. Zhang Taidong in?"

"Ouo." The purple skull head pointed inside and called out.

"Xunxun~" Little Xunbao, in a great mood, translated for the first time.

It said that a colleague inside will come to pick us up.

Didn't expect someone to come to pick us up; this treatment is a bit too good... Qiao Sang walked into the gate again.

She waited under a shade tree not far away.

Shade tree, which can grow shade fruits that Ghost-type pet beasts like to eat, can help Ghost-type pet beasts increase some energy while preventing hunger.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao floated to the tree, looked at the black tree fruits emitting a sweet fragrance above, and saliva flowed out slightly involuntarily.

Suddenly, the leaves rustled, and a pet beast about fifteen centimeters tall, generally light purple, looking like a teapot, hung upside down from above.

Tea Shadow Pot, Ghost-type beginner pet beast, can automatically secrete black tea in its body. It is said that people who drink this tea can see some things they usually can't see for a short time, such as invisible Ghost-type pet beasts... Qiao Sang looked up at the Ghost-type pet beast hanging upside down above, and relevant information appeared in her mind.

She was not very surprised that there were Ghost-type pet beasts here; after all, this is research related to Ghost-type pet beasts. Even if she didn't know anything else, there must be many Ghost-type pet beasts.

"Tea tea?" The Tea Shadow Pot glanced at Little Xunbao and called out with a confused expression.

"Xunxun~" Little Xunbao answered with a grin.

"Tea tea." The Tea Shadow Pot looked at Qiao Sang and showed an "I see" expression.

"Xunxun~" Little Xunbao pointed to the tree fruits on the tree with expectation.

"Tea tea." The Tea Shadow Pot shook its head, but opened its mouth and bit off the tree fruit next to it in front of Little Xunbao, eating it with a smug look.

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao showed a disappointed expression.

"Huhu!"

"Huhu!"

Just at this moment, a pet beast generally dark purple, looking like a teapot, floated from afar, calling out with an anxious expression.

On the shade tree, the Tea Shadow Pot was startled and "whooshed" into the tree.

Pot Shadow Monster, Ghost-type advanced pet beast, the advanced form of the Tea Shadow Pot... Qiao Sang recognized the pet beast that was calling out.

Could it be the Ghost-type pet beast that came to pick me up...

Just as Qiao Sang was preparing to greet the Pot Shadow Monster, Little Xunbao suddenly pointed to the position where the Tea Shadow Pot was hiding and shouted:

"Xunxun!"

The Pot Shadow Monster's eyes lit up, turned into a purple light and quickly came to the shade tree, moved its handle, turned it into a claw and grabbed into the leaves, and pulled the Tea Shadow Pot out.

"Tea tea!"

"Tea tea!"

The Tea Shadow Pot struggled, but couldn't break free at all.

"Huhu." The Pot Shadow Monster showed a grateful expression to Little Xunbao and called out.

"Xunxun~" Little Xunbao waved its hand, indicating it was just a small effort.

The Pot Shadow Monster floated away, grabbing the Tea Shadow Pot.

"Tea tea!" The Tea Shadow Pot struggled while calling out angrily at Little Xunbao.

Even if Qiao Sang couldn't understand what it was saying, she could feel it was cursing very dirtily.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao picked its nose provocatively at the Tea Shadow Pot.

And then it sensed something, looked down, found its Beast Tamer was looking at itself, quickly put down its claws, blinked its eyes, and did its image management again.

Qiao Sang asked with a smile:

"How did that Tea Shadow Pot provoke you?"

"Xunxun!"

As soon as this was mentioned, Little Xunbao got excited, floated to its Beast Tamer's side, showed an indignant expression and pointed to the tree fruit above.

"Yaya!"

Like Ya Bao, who understood the whole conversation, called out, indicating you did a beautiful job.

"If you like eating this, I'll buy it for you when we go out." Qiao Sang said.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao was happy, floating around its Beast Tamer and Like Ya Bao constantly.

Just as it was floating energetically, it felt a gaze, looked to the side, found Gangbao was looking at itself, stopped quickly, straightened its posture, and did its image management again.

Gangbao: "..."

You think that just because you are like this, I won't remember your look just now...

Gangbao's inner world is indeed much richer than its expression... Qiao Sang thought.

Gangbao's body stiffened, trying to empty its mind and not think too much.

"Ask ask?"

At this moment, a pet beast about one meter tall, generally gray, with a head shaped like a water drop, and two holes on the top of its head, inside which was deep and dark as if the aura of the abyss was flowing, floated from afar and called out.

"Xunxun~"

Before Qiao Sang could open her mouth, Little Xunbao nodded repeatedly.

No.

"Xunxun..."

The action was very honest, but the words spoken were completely opposite. Little Xunbao realized what it had said, showed an expression of astonishment, and covered its mouth.

"Ask ask." The pet beast with a head shaped like a water drop smiled and started floating forward.

Without needing Like Ya Bao and the others to translate, Qiao Sang knew this pet beast was the one leading the way, so she quickly followed.

Counter-Question Ghost, Ghost-type General-rank pet beast, likes to ask questions. The target of the questions will uncontrollably want to answer, but the answers are all opposite. Also, only targets who understand will be affected, meaning only the Beast Tamer and pet beasts who have contracted it will be affected by the Ask-Heart trait, uncontrollably answering questions. Therefore, everyone is not very willing to contract it... Qiao Sang looked at the pet beast leading the way, and relevant information flashed in her mind.

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao remembered its abnormality just now, silently took out the long-lost pet beast identifier, and aimed it at the Counter-Question Ghost.

A voice similar to Little Xunbao's sounded soon:

【Oh my, Master, you haven't used me for a long time. Let me see... Counter-Question Ghost, Ghost-type General-rank pet beast, possesses the Ask-Heart trait. People and pet beasts who understand the questions will definitely answer with opposite answers. It's terrifying and uncontrollable. It is recommended that you stay away from it.】

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao showed an expression of sudden realization.

The Counter-Question Ghost in front seemed not to hear and continued to lead the way.

Qiao Sang and Like Ya Bao and the others followed behind the Counter-Question Ghost, walked into a building, performed facial recognition, took the elevator to the third floor, and entered a research room.

As soon as they entered, more than a dozen Ghost-type pet beasts of various forms looked over in unison.

Among them, two were the Tea Shadow Pot and Pot Shadow Monster seen not long ago.

If this scene were placed on a Beast Tamer who is afraid of Ghost-type pet beasts, they would probably be scared to faint directly. Qiao Sang didn't feel much, felt emotional after seeing many Ghost-type pet beasts here, and then placed her gaze on a man sitting in front of the console not far away, wearing a white lab coat.

This person's facial features were soft, with a comfortable scholarly air, looking at most about 30 years old, and one couldn't tell at all that he was already 126 years old.

Qiao Sang recognized that the person in front of her was Zhang Taidong, whom she checked last night.

Before she had time to greet him, he heard the movement, turned his head, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he stood up:

"It really is you, sit down quickly."

Saying this, he looked at the Tea Shadow Pot and said: "Pour tea."

Qiao Sang sat on the sofa in the rest area.

"Tea tea..."

The Tea Shadow Pot floated over reluctantly, tilted its body, and started pouring tea.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao picked up a teacup, put it in front with a smile, and called out, indicating it also wanted some.

The Tea Shadow Pot just pretended not to hear.

Zhang Taidong saw this scene and said:

"Tea Shadow Pot, pour a cup for the Ghost Ring King too."

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao pointed to the teacup with a smug look.

"Tea tea..."

The Tea Shadow Pot's body stiffened, but it still poured the tea in.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao grinned, picked up the teacup in front of the Tea Shadow Pot, and took an elegant sip, imitating what it saw on TV.

Zhang Taidong introduced with a smile:

"The tea in this Tea Shadow Pot's body is good for Ghost-type pet beasts and people. Moreover, after drinking a lot, it can let the Beast Tamer better absorb the feedback from the Ghost-type pet beast, and reach the realm of spirit vision faster."

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment:

"Spirit vision?"

Zhang Taidong was also stunned for a moment, then explained with a smile:

"It's just like Ghost-type pet beasts, seeing things that you usually can't see."

Qiao Sang understood in seconds, picked up the teacup and drank a sip solemnly.

"Didn't expect that after you won the championship of the Kongkong regional competition, you came to our Zhitiya region." Zhang Taidong said with a smile.

"I came mainly because Little, the Ghost Ring King, wanted to come to the Zhitiya region to take a look." Qiao Sang smiled: "I also didn't expect you would let me in so readily."

Zhang Taidong laughed:

"You just won the championship of the Kongkong regional competition; it should be me who feels honored to see you. I have never seen a regional champion as young as you, and you came to find me for research related to Ghost-type pet beasts. How could I have any reason not to see you."

Must say, Dr. Zhang Taidong really knows how to speak... Qiao Sang thought.

Zhang Taidong looked at Little Xunbao, his eyes full of appreciation:

"Your Ghost Ring King is cultivated very well."

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao heard the praise and flipped its hair proudly.

Zhang Taidong laughed, then thought of something, his expression became serious, and said:

"If you have anything you want to ask, just ask."

This is what I was waiting for... Qiao Sang said bluntly:

"I want to understand what another possibility of Ghost-type pet beast evolution is. I have read your paper, but there is no clear evolutionary path on it. I want to know something more concrete."

Little Xunbao looked over with expectation.

Zhang Taidong pondered for a few seconds and said slowly:

"I also discovered it not long ago. Ghost-type pet beasts can also absorb some kind of positive emotional energy to stimulate the potential in their bodies. This potential can promote evolution."

Pausing, he added:

"You should also know the situation in our Zhitiya region. Compared to people in other regions, we definitely love Ghost-type pet beasts."

"I won't hide it from you. I first discovered this potential in Ghost-type pet beasts from other regions. Later, I did experiments on many Ghost-type pet beasts and found that only a very small number of Ghost-type pet beasts can absorb this energy, but the amount absorbed is not enough to make them evolve."

"Later, I applied for local Ghost-type pet beasts from almost every region and found that the feasibility of Ghost-type pet beasts from other regions absorbing this energy is much higher."

Qiao Sang asked impatiently: "So what exactly is this energy?"

"It is positive emotional energy." Zhang Taidong organized his language and said:

"Excluding the Ghost-type pet beasts in the Zhitiya region, I did experiments on 1011 Ghost-type pet beasts of different races and found that only 65 Ghost-type pet beasts can absorb this energy, and the positive emotional energy they can absorb comes from things they care about."

"For example, the Ugly Night Flower in the Kongkong region cares about being ugly, so I gave it more care, increased its gorgeousness, and after other people and pet beasts sincerely praised it for becoming better-looking, it produced happy emotions inside and absorbed this energy of sincere praise."

"Or for example, the Walking Ghost in the Xilv region."

"It is one of the few Ghost-type pet beasts that won't float, and it often feels inferior. I let it eat a floating potion without knowing it, let it float for a short time, and the surrounding Ghost-type pet beasts didn't know either and expressed surprise at this."

"The Walking Ghost produced happy emotions and absorbed this energy of surprise."

"Actually, whether it is the Ugly Night Flower or the Walking Ghost, there are many things that make them happy, but only these two things can make them produce happy emotions while absorbing the surrounding positive emotional energy."

"So my conclusion is that this absorption of emotional energy comes from things they care about most."

Pausing, he added:

"The things every Ghost-type pet beast cares about are different, so I can't give an accurate statement, and can only call on everyone to let their Ghost-type pet beasts produce happy emotions."

Qiao Sang digested this and asked:

"Does this absorbed energy definitely lead to evolution?"

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao sat on the side with an attitude of listening carefully, its serious look exactly the same as when it first used a substitute to play on the computer.

Zhang Taidong said rigorously:

"First of all, not every Ghost-type pet beast can absorb this power. Secondly, individual pet beasts that can absorb this power have signs of evolution in their body data, but none of them triggered the final light of evolution."

"This research is still being explored, but what I can guarantee is that there will definitely be Ghost-type pet beasts that will evolve because of absorbing this energy."

Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and asked:

"Why do you think almost all Ghost-type pet beasts in the Zhitiya region cannot absorb this energy?"

"That's a good question." Zhang Taidong laughed.

After laughing, he sighed and said:

"I'm just guessing. Beast Tamers in the Zhitiya region are too good to Ghost-type pet beasts. Their living environment makes them have almost nothing they are particularly obsessed with. Since there is nothing they particularly care about, the happy emotions produced are not the specific kind, and they cannot absorb positive emotional energy."

Good guy, it's actually because they are too good to their pet beasts... Qiao Sang then thought of something, and her heart instantly cooled by half.

She considers herself quite good to Little Xunbao too. It is happy about this and that every day because of some small things, and its enthusiasm for things it is interested in is only three minutes.

Looking at it this way, Little Xunbao's situation seems to be about the same as these Ghost-type pet beasts in the Zhitiya region...
