Beast Taming: Starting From Zero Chapter 711: Emotion Swap
When Qiao Sang saw Feeling Ghost leading Lubao into the living room, she was momentarily stunned.
Although they had only spent less than a day together, she had already gotten a sense of Feeling Ghost’s personality.
It was the timid, introverted type, always sticking close to Lubao. Even when tasked with seeking out despair energy, it would quietly sniff around the same spot without moving an inch.
Unless Lubao moved first.
But now, with Feeling Ghost floating ahead and Lubao following behind, it was a truly unusual sight.
At that moment, Feeling Ghost stopped beside Little Treasure. Its eyes began to glow purple, interrupting Qiao Sang’s train of thought.
Qiao Sang noticed Little Treasure's face full of despair and immediately thought of Feeling Ghost’s mission. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Sense Sense.”
Feeling Ghost’s eyes glowed violet.
At the same time, one claw from each of its hands extended a stubby toe.
Soon, two wisps of white mist rose from the heads of Little Treasure and Lubao.
Upon closer inspection, the mist from Little Treasure’s head was clearly much denser.
The two wisps of mist swapped places.
As the thinner mist entered Little Treasure’s body, his expression of despair froze. He looked up from the computer, seemingly confused.
HIs substitute looked up too.
“Xun Xun!”
Little Treasure and his clone exchanged a glance, then broke into a look and began furiously typing on the keyboard.
“Lu…”
Lubao, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment. Then, as if remembering something, her tail drooped, cold air seeped out of its body, and she took on a thoroughly dejected appearance.
Watching the emotional changes in Little Treasure and Lubao, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but feel a sincere sense of awe.
After all, Lubao had never shown that kind of expression before.
In that moment, Qiao Sang clearly realized, Lubao had hope of feeling despair.
At some point, Liu Yao had walked over.
He watched the emotion-swapping scene, then after a moment of contemplation, suddenly spoke: “I just remembered, on Blue Star, we also have a pet beast that can cause emotional changes in its targets.”
“What is it?” Qiao Sang asked with interest.
“It’s called Gisdan. It’s a pet beast from the Bainy Kingdom.” Liu Yao explained.
“I’ve never seen one in real life, only read about it. They say it can amplify a target’s emotions to the extreme.”
!!!
Qiao Sang froze, a storm of thoughts crashing through her mind. All she could think about was Dr. Dosharila’s research on pet beast emotional energy vibration frequencies.
And thinking about it, Gisdan’s ability also alters emotional fluctuations.
Various ideas flashed through Qiao Sang’s mind.
She couldn’t help but wonder:
As she pondered this, Liu Yao added: “Unfortunately, Gisdan isn’t from our Dragon Nation. And in Bainy, it’s apparently monopolized by a single family. Otherwise, with that pet beast, Ice Xilu’s evolution would be much smoother.”
Qiao Sang immediately realized that even if she returned to Blue Star, she likely wouldn’t get to see one.
“Yeah, that really is a pity.” She sighed.
Liu Yao didn’t stay long. He picked up a cup of homemade coffee and returned to his room.
Qiao Sang sat on the sofa, observing Lubao.
“Lu…”
Lubao was surrounded by a low-pressure mood.
Her emotions had changed, but her memories hadn’t.
She understood that she was in this state because of the emotion swap, but she couldn’t help but recall many things.
“Lu…”
The more Lubao thought, the more despair she felt.
“Sense Sense.”
At that moment, Feeling Ghost spoke up, indicating that time was up.
Two visible wisps of white mist rose again from Little Treasure and Lubao’s heads and swapped places.
The mist descended and disappeared.
“Xun Xun…"
Little Treasure, who was fiercely hammering away at the keyboard, froze. He looked at Feeling Ghost, then at his beast master. As the emotions returned, he remembered today was the last day he could play the computer without limits. He pouted, wiped away an imaginary tear, and put on a face before continuing to type.
“Lu…”
As Lubao’s own emotions returned, she recalled her previous state. She felt a bit stirred, because she had truly experienced despair.
But soon, her mood sank again.
Although the despair had been triggered by the swapped emotions, the issues she had recalled were indeed real possibilities.
Qiao Sang noticed the change in Lubao’s condition, and her eyes lit up.
Then she remembered something and looked at Little Treasure, still playing on the computer.
Qiao Sang paused for two seconds, then said aloud: “Little Treasure, Yulianton University offers classes just for pet beasts. I want to sign you up.”
Little Treasure: !!!
Little Treasure froze instantly, even the computer screen lost its charm.
His substitute, overwhelmed by the surge of emotion, destabilized and vanished on the spot.
“Xun Xun…”
Little Treasure looked like he had been pierced by a thousand arrows, staggering a step with unsteady footing.
“Sense Sense!”
Feeling Ghost’s eyes sparkled and turned purple again.
Quickly, white mist rose once more from Little Treasure and Lubao’s heads.
This time, the mist from Little Treasure was even denser than before.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang silently whispered an apology to Little Treasure.
Three minutes later, after the mist returned to their rightful owners, Little Treasure looked up at his beast master, teary-eyed, wearing a expression.
Qiao Sang smiled and said, “You don’t have to.”
Actually, she had just been joking.
After all, Little Treasure’s emotions were far too easy to read.
She’d only been at the school for two days, she hadn’t even looked into whether there were separate classes for pet beasts.
“Xun Xun!”
Little Treasure froze for a second, then burst into a joyous expression and leapt into his beast master’s arms.
“Lu…”
On the other side, Lubao, sinking deeper into gloom, quietly turned and returned to her room.
