Chapter 686 Except Myself (Two in One)
The next day, Qiao Sang woke up, washed up simply, and went to the kitchen, where he saw the vice-principal was already busy.
"Wait another five minutes, it will be ready soon." Liu Yao said as he prepared energy pills for Yabao.
Qiao Sang walked to the side and asked:
"How can I help you?"
"No need." Liu Yao was busy with his work, without even looking up. "I just adjusted the formula of the energy pills a few days ago based on Yan Qilu's current physical condition and made new ones. You don't know which one belongs to whom."
It feels so good to have an A-level trainer around... Qiao Sang sighed in his heart, and suddenly heard some movement nearby.
She turned her head and saw Xiao Xunbao opened the refrigerator and was searching for snacks inside.
"Don't move." Qiao Sang said.
"Xunxun?" Little Xunbao turned his head with a slightly confused expression.
"We'll have breakfast soon, don't eat snacks now," said Qiao Sang.
“Xunxun…”
Xiao Xunbao looked at the things in the refrigerator, then looked at Qiao Sang, and then pointed in the direction of the living room.
Qiao Sang looked in the direction that little Xunbao pointed and saw another little Xunbao looking at the computer screen. He seemed to be watching some tear-jerking movie, and from time to time he picked up the tissue in his paw to wipe his tears.
Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds and asked:
"Did it ask you to get a snack?"
"Search."
The little treasure hunter in front of him nodded.
Qiao Sang thought of something, sensed it in the Beast Taming Code, was silent for a moment again, and asked: "Are you a substitute?"
"Search."
"Little Treasure Hunt" nodded.
Could a stand-in be used like this? Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao who was silently wiping tears not far away with an extremely complicated expression, then retracted his gaze and said:
"Don't get it any snacks, just tell it that it's going to have breakfast soon."
"Search."
"Little Treasure Hunt" nodded, closed the refrigerator, and floated back to the main body.
Qiao Sang looked in the direction of the stand-in.
It just went over and spoke to Xiao Xunbao, who nodded and immediately took a tissue and gave it to the substitute. Then the two Ghost Ring Kings stared at the computer screen and soon their eyes became teary, and they started wiping their tears at the same time.
Qiao Sang: “…”
At the dining table, Qiao Sang was enjoying the breakfast prepared by the vice-principal, but his mind was not on the food.
"What are you thinking about?" Liu Yao asked.
Qiao Sang lowered his voice and asked, "Vice Principal, do you think that when a Stand reaches the ultimate level, it will develop its own consciousness?"
When she was reading the Beast Taming Code last night, she discovered that Xiao Xunbao's stand had already been trained to the ultimate level, but had not yet reached the peak.
Liu Yao instantly understood what Qiao Sang was worried about.
He glanced at the Ghost Ring King who was eating, and said, "The Stand has reached the ultimate level, so it is impossible for its consciousness to be generated independently. It just stays in the outside world for a longer time, and can understand the original body's thoughts and feelings. It can feel what the original body feels."
"A Substitute at the Ultimate level can act independently. Your Ghost Ring King must have trained his Substitute to the Ultimate level. He felt lonely playing on the computer alone, so he used his Substitute to play with him."
At this point, he paused and said earnestly, "But it's better for your pet to play less with computers, especially since your Ghost Ring King is still young and in his golden growth period."
In fact, Liu Yao had wanted to say the last sentence a long time ago. During this period, every time he came back or went to the toilet at night, he saw the Ghost Ring King and his stand-in playing on the computer.
This is definitely not a good habit.
But Qiao Sang's pets have already been trained to this level, so it is not easy for him to intervene and preach.
This time, he finally got the chance.
Qiao Sang smiled a little: "Don't worry, Xiao Xunbao is training when he uses his substitute. His proficiency in the substitute was not so high originally, but it has improved recently when he played computer games with his substitute."
Hearing this, Liu Yao seemed to be thinking about something.
Indeed, thinking back on it, the Ghost Ring King's substitute has become much more agile recently than before. If someone is not familiar with it, they will definitely not be able to tell the difference from the original...
Could it be that as long as a substitute is used, no matter what one does, the proficiency of that skill can be increased? Liu Yao fell into deep thought for a moment.
The little Xunbao next to him was eating energy pills quietly, as if he didn't hear the conversation.
"Xun~hiccup~"
At the same time, in an unused room somewhere, a ghost ring king did not eat anything but was playing on the computer while burping.
…
After breakfast, Qiao Sang came to the room, half-laid on the bed, took out his mobile phone and opened a second-hand platform.
She couldn’t use a credit card to buy shares, so she could only buy some rare materials and props in physical stores or major websites for secondary sale.
This is not an easy thing to do.
If you want to sell the goods quickly and raise money, you have to lower the price. But if the price is too low, people won’t believe it’s genuine. If the price is slightly lower than the market price, people will think it’s second-hand and think the price is too high.
It's very difficult to deal with.
It took Qiao Sang more than half a month to collect enough money to invest in Hughes.
Fortunately, Ou En and Wen Xiao have not officially started their own businesses yet, and they are easy to talk to, otherwise the cooperation would probably have failed.
Qiao Sang answered the buyer's questions.
After some haggling, bargaining, and tireless communication, the deal was finally successful.
Qiao Sang put down his phone, looked at Gang Bao who was training Iron Wall, and said:
"Gangbao, pack up the Ice Mist buds. Someone wants them."
"Steel Guard."
Gangbao put away the iron wall, nodded, and walked out the door.
Qiao Sang looked at Gangbao's back with a face full of relief. Although Gangbao didn't talk much, he observed and understood almost everything.
Just talking about that batch of goods, knowing where they were placed, what they looked like, and their names was amazing. At least she had never seen any other pet like this before.
Suddenly, Qiao Sang thought of something and his consciousness entered the Beast Taming Codex.
The page flipped and quickly came to the page about Gangbao.
【Name：Steel Guard Falcon】
[Attributes: Steel, Flying]
[Level: Intermediate (8466/10000)+]
During this period, Gangbao trained with Lubao, but he did not learn how to split himself. She thought that with more energy in his body, training might be easier, so she added some points to its level every once in a while.
Gangbao had participated in the pet competition in the third district and accumulated a lot of points, which were enough for it to evolve directly into a high-level pet.
I had planned to wait until Steely's skills reached the ultimate level and then use the points to evolve it.
After all, its next stage is unknown, and it is impossible for me to be so lucky to get another Dream Enlightenment Stone.
Unfortunately, Gangbao doesn’t have a clone of Yabao, nor a substitute for Xiaoxunbao. He has to go to bed on time for the feather problem and can’t stay up late to practice like Lubao.
In addition to spending two hours doing mobility training with Lubao during the day, he also has to practice Iron Wall, air absorption and wing blades for himself as a fragile beastmaster, and occasionally he has to take care of five spawning stones, so he is very busy.
With the current level points, if I continue to train like this every day, I’m afraid that if I don’t master any of my skills, it will have to evolve naturally.
It seems that in the next period of time, I have to reduce the number of items that Gangbao trains and focus on practicing one of them...
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang took a look at the proficiency of Iron Wall, Air Absorption and Wing Blade respectively, and exited the Beast Taming Code.
Eight minutes later, Gangbao pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as it came in, it noticed its own beastmaster's gaze towards it.
"Steel Guard?"
Gang Bao called out, asking if there was anything wrong. "It's like this." Qiao Sang got straight to the point: "I'm going to let you practice a skill alone next."
"Steel Guard?"
Gangbao showed a puzzled expression.
Why? Qiao Sang patiently explained: "You will evolve in a while, so you have to make plans in advance. If you have a skill that reaches the ultimate level, you will be stronger than the pets that evolve at the same time in the early stage of evolution, and your potential will be greater than others."
She was not just saying this casually, but it was a conclusion she had drawn based on Yabao and the others' previous experience.
"Steel Guard..."
Gangbao was stunned when he heard this.
Is it going to evolve so soon?
It feels like it hasn't been long since I evolved into the intermediate form...
But since my own beastmaster said so, it should be correct...
"Steel Guard?"
Gang Bao raised his head and looked at his beastmaster.
So what skills will it practice alone next? Qiao Sang asked with a smile:
"What skill do you want to practice?"
"Steel Guard."
Gangbao thought for a moment and called out, wanting to practice Iron Wall.
Qiao Sang was a little surprised.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
You know, before the incident in District 19, Steel Treasure was not very active in practicing Iron Wall, and it was more inclined to skills that could cause damage to the target.
Could it be that it was practicing the Iron Wall for its own sake... Qiao Sang felt warm in his heart and was deeply moved. He asked softly, "Why do you want to practice this skill?"
"Steel Guard."
Gangbao calmly expressed his views.
Among the skills it is practicing now, Iron Wall is the simplest, so by practicing this skill, it can improve its proficiency faster.
Qiao Sang: “…”
It’s too early to be touched... Qiao Sang controlled his facial expression and said, "You are right."
In fact, she had looked at the proficiency of the skills before, and the skill she wanted Gangbao to practice was also Iron Wall.
Its Iron Wall has now been trained to the late stage of great success, close to perfection, and is the skill closest to the ultimate level among the three skills.
"Steel Guard."
At this time, Gangbao showed a serious expression and shouted, indicating that in addition to the Iron Wall, he also wanted to continue practicing the clone.
Qiao Sang stared at Gang Bao for a while, but didn't ask why. Instead, he nodded:
"good."
She could see Gangbao's determination to learn how to clone himself.
"Steel Guard."
Upon hearing this, Gangbao grinned slightly.
…
Seven o'clock in the evening.
Open air training ground.
In the dark night, large chunks of hail fell from the sky like translucent stones.
A purple figure quickly moved back and forth through it, preventing the hail from touching it at all.
At first, Gangbao was still able to do it easily, but as time went on, it gradually became a bit difficult.
Practicing clones is equivalent to reducing the time spent practicing iron wall, and Gangbao is aware of this.
But it always felt that it was just a little bit away from learning how to clone itself, so it was unwilling to stop practicing.
Hurry up, hurry up... As long as I can learn how to clone myself, I can spend more time on the iron wall...
Gangbao gritted his teeth, showing a determined expression, and his speed, which had originally slowed down, accelerated again.
"Bang!"
At this moment, a piece of hail hit its wing.
Gangbao's body shook and his speed slowed down suddenly.
The hail was still falling, hitting Gangbao continuously.
"Steel Guard!"
After all, Gangbao is still an intermediate pet. Although hail is classified as advanced because it is a weather skill, the pet that uses this skill is Lubao. Lubao has been practicing with Gangbao during this period, and his proficiency has long been improved. So many hailstones hit Gangbao in succession, and it couldn't bear it at all, and couldn't help but scream.
When Lubao, who was below, saw Gangbao falling from a high altitude, she subconsciously wanted to use the healing light.
Energy was circulating in its body, and the gem on its forehead glowed blue.
But at this moment, Gangbao, who was less than 5 centimeters from the ground, spread his wings and flew high into the sky again.
"Bingke..."
Lu Bao was stunned for a moment, then immediately retracted the healing light.
High in the sky.
Dense hailstones fell madly, and many of them hit Gangbao.
Gangbao gritted his teeth and controlled his body.
Hurry up, faster!
It feels like it is about to learn how to clone itself!
It felt it! "Steel Guard!"
Gangbao gritted his teeth, the energy in his body suddenly exploded, and his speed suddenly increased to an extreme.
At the same time, a white light appeared on its body.
Below, Lubao raised her head.
All I saw was a figure like white lightning running around in the hail, so fast that I couldn't see its specific outline at all.
"Bingke..."
…
In the room.
"So, after so many days of practice, you didn't learn how to clone yourself, but instead learned how to use lightning?" Qiao Sang was surprised after reading the Beast Taming Codex, but also very excited.
"Steel Guard..."
Gangbao nodded helplessly.
It had always thought that the skill it was just a step away from learning was clones, but it didn't expect it was another skill.
Qiao Sang smiled and said:
"Lightning Flash is great. This skill is quite good. It can be used to attack as well as move and dodge."
Lightning Flash is generally a mid-level skill that can only be learned by pets with strong explosive power, movement speed, and physical strength.
With this move, it can keep up with the speed even among some electric-type pets of the same level that are famous for their speed.
"Steel Guard."
Seeing that his beastmaster seemed very happy, Gangbao's originally depressed mood improved a lot. He barked, indicating that he would not practice the clone anymore.
"Why?" Qiao Sang was a little puzzled.
In the morning, Gangbao looked determined to practice clones.
"Steel Guard, Steel Guard."
Gangbao flapped his wings.
When it was training recently, it had the feeling that it was about to learn a new skill. It thought it had learned the ability to clone itself, but it turned out to be a flash of lightning. After learning this trick, it no longer had that feeling.
Therefore, before the Iron Wall is trained to the ultimate level, it does not intend to waste time on training clones, and will wait until the Iron Wall mission is completed first.
The goal is so clear... Qiao Sang smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll practice clones later."
"Bingke..."
Lu Bao beside her watched the scene silently.
It always feels that recently, whether it is Yabao, Xiaoxunbao, or Gangbao, they have made rapid progress, except for itself...
A darkness flashed across Lubao's dark blue eyes.
It walked to the tank containing the sacred water, jumped in, and immediately lay down, closing its eyes and circulating its energy.
