Chapter 156: Lost Town

~8 min read 1,533 words

Qiao Sang followed the formation and sent a 【?】

The next second, the chat interface showed 【Shi Gaofeng withdrew a message】

Although the battle group of the sophomore school team has six people, the daily training and actions of the individual battle group and the team battle group are basically separate, so two groups were built.

There are five people in the Invincible Holy Water group that Qiao Sang is in, and usually, everyone except Zheng Zheng Guoping chats.

Now that Zheng Zheng Guoping suddenly appeared, it scared Shi Gaofeng into quickly withdrawing his message, fearing that he would be named.

Wang Yao looked at the bunch of people who suddenly bubbled up in the group and was speechless.

So you were all there!

She suppressed the urge to complain and looked up at the sentence Qiao Sang sent, feeling a bit of a headache.

From accepting the mission to now, it has only been one day, and she completed the mission of looking for a ghost-type pet beast without a time limit?

Even finding people isn't this fast!

She just wanted to send a message to ask how it was completed, but after typing two words, the latest three messages in the group made her heart tremble, and she pressed the delete key.

All three were sent by Zheng Zheng Baolong.

【Zheng Zheng Guoping: Picture】

Clicking on it, it was the rating and evaluation given at the end of the mission details page for finding the Ghost-Absorbing Lamp.

【Zheng Zheng Guoping: Voice】

【Zheng Zheng Guoping: Voice】

Both were 60 seconds long.

She had a cheap hand and converted the first voice message into text.

【You guys look at Qiao Sang, she is a grade younger than you, and she has such efficiency when completing the mission for the first time, and she completed it so well. Look at how many missions you have done? How many times have you gotten five stars? Look at others...】

There is no need to listen to the second voice message to know that he is still scolding them.

Wang Yao was chilled to the bone by these words. Since she was a child, she has always been the child of someone else.

Since contracting the Great Flame Sparrow and being admitted to the best Saint Water Middle School in the city, who among the people around her wasn't full of envy when mentioning her.

Even in Saint Water Middle School, which is full of geniuses, she was selected into the individual battle group of the school team. It would be a lie to say she wasn't proud.

Before Qiao Sang came, she was also the one who was scolded the least in the team.

Is she bad? She is not bad!

It's just that Qiao Sang is too abnormal.

Zheng Zheng Baolong is too much, actually comparing them with a pervert. Wang Yao's heart hardened, and she just wanted to type to defend herself.

Just at this moment, Zheng Zheng Baolong sent another message.

【Zheng Zheng Guoping: By the way, how are the missions of you three going?】

Wang Yao looked at the Great Flame Sparrow's impatient face and immediately cowered.

Forget it, wait until the mission is completed before refuting...

Zheng Zheng Guoping appeared, and no one in the group spoke anymore. Seeing that no one spoke, Qiao Sang exited and opened other message interfaces.

【I'm a potential stock: Qiao Sang Qiao Sang, what do you think of the Fire Butterfly?】

The message was from half an hour ago.

Qiao Sang's eyelid twitched. "I'm a potential stock" is Fang Fang Sisi's ID. She has asked about all five evolutionary forms of the Cotton-Section Worm this summer vacation.

【I think it's good】

Fang Fang Sisi replied quickly.

【Right, I think so too! So I made a decision to let the Cotton-Section Worm evolve into a Fire Butterfly!】

Qiao Sang was already used to it and typed a line leisurely.

【What are you going to do?】

【I'm a potential stock: I specifically went to ask a breeder. If you want to evolve into an excellent Fire Butterfly, you must first become a brave Cotton-Section Worm, otherwise, even if it evolves with a Fire Stone, it won't be as brave as other fire-type pet beasts, and its fire-type energy will be greatly reduced】

Qiao Sang suddenly had a bad premonition.

A few times before, when Fang Fang Sisi wanted the Cotton-Section Worm to evolve into a Snow Butterfly, in order to let it adapt to the cold in advance, she put it in the refrigerator for half an hour every day.

Later, when she wanted it to evolve into a Poison Butterfly, she went online every day to find recipes for dark cuisine and made them for it to eat.

Later, she changed her mind again and wanted the Cotton-Section Worm to evolve into a Water Butterfly, so she took it swimming for a long time. I don't know how she taught it, but she actually made the Cotton-Section Worm, which couldn't swim itself, learn to swim.

To tell the truth, she still admires Fang Fang Sisi's Cotton-Section Worm. It was tossed like this and actually held on.

Thinking that the Cotton-Section Worm didn't know what it would encounter this time, Qiao Sang felt a bit unbearable.

She sent a message to inquire.

【What are you going to do?】

【I'm a potential stock: I asked others, the best way to practice courage is to

Qiao Sang paused for a moment, then typed into the chat box: 【Is that the one at number 231?】

【I'm a Potential Stock: I didn't notice, wait for me, let me check.】

After waiting for three seconds, Fang Fang Sisi replied.

【It is! How did you know? Have you been there already?】

It really was the one she had seen on the task list. Qiao Sang opened the chat box, just about to reply, when the chat window vibrated.

【Then are you playing the "Lost Town" escape room? That Cotton-Sun Jie Worm that drops from the sky in the third level, the one with blood still on it, is actually my Mianmian.】 She followed this with a shy emoji.

Qiao Sang: "..."

【So you let the Cotton-Sun Jie Worm be an NPC?】

【I'm a Potential Stock: I took it to play once, but we didn't clear the level. I wanted to play again, but it's too expensive—it costs 1000 Alliance coins. So I had the Cotton-Sun Jie Worm go work, and once we've earned enough, we'll go try again.】

The corners of Qiao Sang's mouth began to twitch. The Cotton-Sun Jie Worm's experience this time really was quite miserable...

After thinking for a moment, Qiao Sang typed a line.

【How much does the Cotton-Sun Jie Worm make working there for a day?】

【I'm a Potential Stock: 100 Alliance coins.】

Qiao Sang expressed sympathy once again. Working hard for ten days just to spend the money to scare yourself—what is the point...

8:22 PM.

No. 231 Qinshe Road.

Quite a few passersby looked up at this escape room that had only recently opened, wanting to go in but not daring to.

Because the shop's decor was primarily black, and it was constantly flickering with simulated candlelight that dimmed and brightened, it was clearly a horror-themed escape room.

Inside, a young girl wearing a purple dress was holding the escape room menu, flipping through it page by page.

"Hello, would you like to play the single-player escape room or the multiplayer one?" a handsome staff member nearby asked.

Qiao Sang flipped through it for a while and asked, "Do you have an escape room just for pet beasts?"

After chatting with Fang Fang Sisi, she suddenly remembered what Wang Yao had said: if you want to improve a pet beast's mental strength, let it experience something scary and then overcome it.

Like Ya Bao basically feared nothing in heaven or on earth.

As for water, it just hated it, it wasn't fear.

If she had to say, Qiao Sang felt it was probably afraid of scary things, like Ghost-type pet beasts.

Back when they watched horror movies, and when they saw the Healing Xixi Ghost Treasure or encountered the Treasure-Hunting Ghost, Like Ya Bao's reactions were all intense.

So, Qiao Sang brought Like Ya Bao here to give it a try.

Overcoming fear, after all, is most effective when it does it itself.

"We do." The staff member swapped to a different menu and handed it over: "The escape rooms in this one are all for pet beasts. Do you want a single-pet room or a multi-pet room?"

After learning that the girl in front of him was a Beast Tamer, the staff member changed his address from "you" (informal) to "you" (formal).

"Single-pet, please," Qiao Sang said.

"Then I recommend 'City of Ghost Shadows,' 'Confinement Space,' and 'Lost Town,' which are on pages 2, 8, and 9 respectively. You can take a look," the staff member introduced.

Lost Town?

Qiao Sang paused. Wasn't that the escape room where Fang Fang Sisi's Cotton-Sun Jie Worm worked as an NPC?

"That's the one," Qiao Sang said, flipping to page 9 and pointing at the words "Lost Town."
