Chapter 1165: Fire Meteor Crater

Ice Song Fox, an Ice-type General-tier pet beast. It loves to sing, and its voice is as bright and pleasant as a soprano. Hearing the Ice Song Fox's singing on a sweltering summer day can even make one forget the heat for a moment... Qiao Sang looked at the pet beast in the distance that had suddenly grown in size. Information related to it surfaced in her mind, and she immediately thought of something. She took out her phone and snapped a photo of it with a "Click."

"Qingqing?"

Seeing this, Seeing Qingbao called out curiously.

Why take a picture of it? Is it because she thinks it looks good?

As it spoke, it cast a scrutinizing gaze toward the Ice Song Fox in the distance.

It had been by its Beast Tamer's side for so long, yet it hadn't seen its Beast Tamer take many pictures of it.

"Looking good is one aspect." Qiao Sang put away her phone and smiled. "I saw so many people following it, and I thought this Ice Song Fox might be a celebrity, so I took a picture while I was at it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Ice Song Fox in the distance turned its head to look over, revealing an expression that said, "You have some taste."

Then, its stride became even more haughty.

Little Tingbao watched from the side as its Beast Tamer flirted with another pet beast, but it wasn't as annoyed as it usually was.

Now that it had been contracted, it no longer lacked a sense of security like before.

"It's not necessarily a celebrity pet beast." Teacher Mi Mi Jiala said calmly. "On Yan Tian Star, the most popular pet beasts aren't the Dragon-type or Fairy-type, nor those rare ones, but the Ice-type and Water-type. Especially in places like Menzhou where the weather is exceptionally muggy, Ice-type and Water-type pet beasts basically have a group of people and pet beasts following them when they go out."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang's first thought was: It's a good thing Lubao usually stays in the backpack; otherwise, based on its level and charm, wouldn't it cause a traffic jam?

Her second thought was: So this Ice Song Fox isn't a celebrity after all...

"Super Xunxun~"

Little Xiao Xunbao poked the backpack and called out, indicating that if Lubao came out, many humans would definitely like it.

Lubao ignored it.

"Super Xunxun..."

Little Xiao Xunbao felt snubbed and silently floated back to the side.

"Yaya?"

Like Ya Bao called out, indicating: Are they Fire-types unpopular?

Qiao Sang glanced at it, revealing an expression that said, "What do you think?"

"Yaya..."

Like Ya Bao understood its Beast Tamer's meaning and sighed.

The humans and pet beasts here are too strange; they actually don't like powerful existences, but instead like them based on attributes. It didn't even feel like the weather here was that hot.

"Fire-types aren't unpopular, but powerful Fire-types are still popular." Qiao Sang said. "Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many battle competitions."

"Yaya!"

Like Ya Bao revealed an expression that said, "I knew it," and felt better inside.

Just as Qiao Sang and Like Ya Bao were talking, Teacher Mi Mi Jiala had already finished setting the location. She placed her phone in front of Penjiamei and said:

"Go here."

"Penpen."

Penjiamei called out, its eyes glowing with blue light.

The next second, the two of them and the group of pet beasts disappeared from the spot.

Ice Sea Hotel.

Qiao Sang looked at the hotel name in front of her and hesitated:

"Are we staying in a hotel this time?"

Since arriving on Yan Tian Star, they had stayed in either villas or homestays. By comparison, hotel rooms were inevitably too small.

Teacher Mi Mi Jiala gave an "Mm" sound. "This is the coolest hotel in Menzhou. Xianxianpu and the others will be more comfortable staying here."

Outside, she was clearly much more cautious and didn't call Xia Lala by name.

With Lubao around, it would be cool wherever they stayed... Qiao Sang didn't say anything more and followed Master Teacher Mi Mi Jiala into the hotel.

As soon as they entered, the surrounding temperature plummeted.

"How is it? Isn't it very cool?" Teacher Mi Mi Jiala asked.

Isn't this how it feels whenever the air conditioning is on... Qiao Sang complained internally, then said: "It is quite cool."

Teacher Mi Mi Jiala smiled. "The cold air here is provided by Ice-type pet beasts. Some bacteria in air conditioners might spread through the airflow, but cold air generated by Ice-type pet beasts won't."

Qiao Sang had heard of some hotels using Ice-type pet beasts as air conditioners to make themselves seem more high-end for publicity, but wasn't that just the Ice-type pet beast being at the central hub, and it still required equipment to transmit the cold air out?

She immediately thought of something and scanned the hotel lobby.

Soon, she saw a white bear-like pet beast about three meters tall sitting on a sofa in the corner, drinking energy recovery fluid while emitting visible cold air from its body.

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment. Recalling what Master Teacher Mi Mi Jiala had said earlier, she couldn't help but look astonished:

"This hotel doesn't have an Ice-type pet beast in every room, does it?"

"No." Teacher Mi Mi Jiala said.

I thought so, how could there be such a luxurious hotel... Qiao Sang felt a strange sense of relief.

"However, one of the features of this hotel is that it has rooms like this." Teacher Mi Mi Jiala said unhurriedly. "I booked exactly this kind of room."

... Qiao Sang said: "Isn't Lubao here?"

"Bingdilamu needs to go to the training ground for training usually. What should Xianxianpu and the others do if they stay in the room then?" Teacher Mi Mi Jiala asked in return.

Thank you for remembering to add "and the others" after "Xianxianpu"... Qiao Sang offered flattery without a trace:

"Master is still the most thoughtful."

After completing the check-in procedures, led by the staff, the two of them and the group of pet beasts went up to the presidential suite on the top floor.

Opening the door and entering the suite, the ceiling height and layout were just like a villa, spacious and luxurious.

Sure enough, with Xia Lala around, it's impossible for me to stay in a bad place... Qiao Sang sighed internally.

"Number Three." The staff called out.

A jellyfish-type pet beast, about three meters tall and generally white in color, walked out from within.

"This is Number Three, who will provide exclusive service for you. You can tell it whatever temperature you want the room to be, and it will create the most comfortable temperature for you." The staff said.

"Yuanyu." Number Three nodded.

Yuan Ice Jellyfish, a dual Ice and Water-type high-tier pet beast, often likes to wander in shallow seas. Compared to other high-tier pet beasts, its hearing has obvious defects. On the competition field, Beast Tamers often need to shout for it to hear instructions... Information about the pet beast in front of her surfaced in Qiao Sang's mind, and she said:

"Then I'll trouble you."

"Yuanyu?" Yuan Ice Jellyfish called out, asking what temperature to set now.

"Super Xunxun~"

Little Xiao Xunbao helped translate.

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said: "24 degrees, please."

"Yuanyu."

Yuan Ice Jellyfish nodded, then went to the corner and began to emit cold air.

Although it's said there's no risk of bacterial infection compared to air conditioning, the disadvantage is also very obvious: there's no privacy to speak of... Qiao Sang thought to herself.

At this time, the staff member who was still in the suite said:

"If you don't like having Number Three in your line of sight, you can let it go to the inner room. It can still serve you from inside. If you want to adjust the temperature, you can directly press the virtual screen on the bedside to operate it, no need to specifically go to the room where Number Three is staying."

Good guy, it has a hearing defect, and once the door is closed, it can neither be seen nor heard. This is specifically finding a Yuan Ice Jellyfish to be an "air conditioner," right... Qiao Sang sighed internally.

Before she could speak, the staff member continued:

"If you have any needs, you can call the front desk or inform Number Three."

Qiao Sang nodded and said:

"I understand."

"Then I'll be going now. I wish you a pleasant stay." After finishing, the staff member turned and left the room, thoughtfully closing the door.

Xia Lala floated over to the Yuan Ice Jellyfish and leaned in to look curiously.

Yuan Ice Jellyfish looked at the Xianxianpu in front of it, and a sense of affection inexplicably arose in its heart. It raised a white tentacle and placed it about one centimeter above Xia Lala's head.

Then, a crystal-clear water droplet dripped from the tip of its tentacle.

"Xia Xia~"

Xia Lala couldn't help but squint its eyes, revealing a comfortable expression.

"Yuanyu."

Yuan Ice Jellyfish was stunned for a moment, then called out in admiration, indicating: You are truly amazing, you can even speak the language of other races.

Xia Lala realized something, its body stiffened, it revealed an awkward smile, and silently floated back to Qiao Sang's side.

Teacher Mi Mi Jiala glanced at the layout of the suite and said:

"I'll stay in the inner room, you take Xianxianpu and the others to stay in the largest room."

"Okay." Qiao Sang didn't act coy with Master Teacher Mi Mi Jiala.

She had many pet beasts, and they basically stayed outside. Most importantly, this hotel was clearly prepared specifically for Xia Lala, so naturally, they should stay in the best room.

Qiao Sang went to the room, took off her shoes, leaned halfway on the bed, and searched for news related to the fire meteor that fell in Menzhou a hundred years ago.

Little Xiao Xunbao took off the ring at the first opportunity and skillfully took out toiletries and daily necessities from it, as well as some food.

"Bingdi."

Lubao called out from the side.

"Super Xunxun~"

Little Xiao Xunbao responded, then took off another ring and reached into it.

Not long after, it took out a spherical box and handed it to Lubao.

Lubao took it and opened it, revealing crystals emitting cold air.

These were all identified Ice Gu Huan Crystals and Ice Souls, already stored in boxes according to different grades and quantities.

One box a day, no need to worry about eating too much.

Lubao threw the crystals into its mouth and bit them to pieces with a "Click."

Little Xiao Xunbao took off another ring, took out a water tank and Holy Essence Water, poured the Holy Essence Water into the water tank, and finally, its eyes glowed with blue light, thoughtfully controlling the water tank to be by the floor-to-ceiling window where there was no sun, and the view was good.

Clearly having the life of a lackey, yet it likes to act like the boss... Seeing Qingbao shook its head as it watched Little Xiao Xunbao busy itself.

"Super Xunxun~"

Suddenly, Little Xiao Xunbao called out.

Number Five, help me take these things into the bathroom.

Seeing Qingbao: "..."

Seeing Qingbao remembered that it had just called Little Xiao Xunbao "boss" yesterday, so it endured it, but didn't take action.

"Super Xunxun?"

Little Xiao Xunbao looked at Seeing Qingbao, revealing an expression.

"Qingqing..."

Seeing Qingbao floated to the bed, lay down, and called out in a sleepy tone, indicating that it was very tired now and wanted to sleep.

"Super Xunxun~"

Little Xiao Xunbao called out thoughtfully.

Then you sleep.

Saying this, it took the toiletries and floated toward the bathroom.

Seeing Qingbao opened one eye, watching Little Xiao Xunbao's busy back, feeling a bit proud, yet inexplicably feeling a bit unable to bear it.

After pondering for a moment, it finally got up, took the remaining toiletries, and floated toward the bathroom.

Qiao Sang leaned halfway on the bed, checking the news, and gained some understanding of the aftermath of the fire meteor in Menzhou a hundred years ago.

The fire meteor didn't land in the whole of Menzhou, but in an area originally called the Shangyue District.

After the drought, the Shangyue District was rebuilt. Because one location suffered significant topographical changes and the ground was rolling hot all year round, it was not suitable for rebuilding. That area was specifically cordoned off and turned into a nature reserve, named "Menzhou Fire Meteor Crater."

Qiao Sang navigated and found that it was a place 32 kilometers away from the hotel.

That's fine, not too far, just a matter of Little Xiao Xunbao's space movement...

Qiao Sang put down her phone, her thoughts drifting uncontrollably.

The ground is rolling hot all year round, could it be that Sun Crystals are still left underneath...

Although the possibility is not high, it is not completely impossible.

However, that place has already become a nature reserve. Even if there are Sun Crystals underneath, it's not easy to go down and explore casually.

Unless, there is a pet beast that can drill into the ground but won't damage the surface...

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang couldn't help but look at Little Xiao Xunbao, who had just come out of the bathroom.

"Super Xunxun?"

Little Xiao Xunbao noticed its Beast Tamer's gaze, looked over, and revealed an expression that said, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Sang slowly raised a smile.

7:30 PM.

Menzhou Fire Meteor Crater ticket office.

Many people and pet beasts were queuing to enter.

The weather in Menzhou is hot during the day, so basically no people or pet beasts come out to play. Most people come out at night, and the closing times of various attractions are correspondingly delayed.

After buying tickets and entering the attraction, a heat wave more intense than outside rushed toward them instantly.

"Tingting..."

Little Tingbao called out aggrievedly toward the backpack.

Lubao didn't respond, but the next second, cold air spread from the backpack, and the temperature plummeted.

"Tingting!"

Little Tingbao called out gratefully toward the backpack.

"This is where the fire meteor landed back then." Teacher Mi Mi Jiala looked at the super-large crater group in front of her, which had over a thousand craters and a depth of a hundred meters, and said in a deep voice.

The thousand-plus craters were either large or small, all in an elliptical bumpy shape, densely gathered in the same area, very visually impactful.

This is where the fire meteor landed a hundred years ago... This is just a small part of it. If it were the whole Shangyue District, how terrifying would it be... Qiao Sang took a deep breath, eased the shock in her heart, and asked:

"Do you think there will still be Sun Crystals here?"

Answering her was a rather deep voice from the side:

"Hahaha, don't think about it, the Sun Crystals are definitely gone. Such precious things were dug out long ago."

Qiao Sang turned her head to look, only to find that a group of people and pet beasts had gathered around her without her knowing.

Clearly there was still a lot of open space around, but everyone insisted on squeezing toward this side.

Seeing Qiao Sang turn her head to look at them, the crowd and the pet beasts all revealed friendly smiles, as if they were familiar.

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment and took a step to the left; everyone followed to the left.

She took a step forward; everyone followed forward again.

At this time, the uncle who spoke just now leaned over with a smile and asked:

"Little girl, what kind of prop are you using? It's quite cool."

Qiao Sang: "..." ===== CHAPTER 1166 =====
