Hearing this, Little Treasure's eyes lit up. He then thought of something and quickly raised his claw to check the real-time energy detection bracelet on it.
The numbers on it were jumping frantically.
"Xun xun..."
Little Treasure slumped back into dejection once more.
He pocketed the realization that the jumping numbers meant his energy was still unstable.
"The Clothes-Changing Totem hasn't been caught yet, has it?" Qiao Sang said.
"You can try to deplete your energy as much as possible right now."
"Xun xun..."
Little Treasure didn't have much confidence.
He had been depleting his energy all along earlier.
"It's still not enough."
Qiao Sang offered a solution: "You can cast Shadow of Darkness and Substitute at the same time, letting them release skills together to strive to exhaust all the energy inside your body."
Pausing, she said seriously: "We shouldn't give up until the very last moment."
"Xun xun!"
Little Treasure stared fixedly at his Tamer, then revealed a determined expression that said I'll try again, vanishing on the spot with a teleport.
"Gang zhan?" Gangbao glanced at Little Treasure, who had appeared outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and let out a cry, asking do you really believe Little Treasure can complete his evolution before the Clothes-Changing Totem is apprehended?
How could that be? The Public Security Bureau already knows the Clothes-Changing Totem's location... Qiao Sang knew that Gangbao's thoughts were synchronized with hers, so she didn't hide it and spoke the truth directly in her mind:
"If the Clothes-Changing Totem gets officially caught, Little Treasure definitely won't train as seriously as he is now. It's better to take advantage of this moment to fully stimulate his desire to train, letting him practice as much as he can while he's motivated."
Gangbao: ...
She had actually thought her Tamer really believed it earlier...
Could it be that her Tamer was already able to control the power of the bond between them?
Boom!
A violent explosion sound came from outside.
Little Treasure started this after his energy was already mostly depleted from his rest, and he went back out to train after barely resting, so he'll definitely exhaust his energy very quickly... Qiao Sang took a glance at the news on television, pulled out her phone, and dialed Teacher Flauda's number.
After two rings, the call went through.
"Did something happen with the Ghost Ring King?" Flauda asked.
"No," Qiao Sang said.
"I wanted to ask if you have any higher-grade energy-depleting potions over there?"
Flauda understood instantly: "Do you want to help the Ghost Ring King stabilize his energy sooner?"
Qiao Sang gave an "mm," choosing not to mention that Little Treasure wanted to evolve early to find the Clothes-Changing Totem and fight it again.
"I do have some." Flauda spoke professionally.
"However, I suggest you still let the Ghost Ring King consume a lower-grade energy-depleting potion. That way, the energy depleted each day is stable, making it easier to observe."
Qiao Sang fell silent for a moment, then asked: "A high-grade energy-depleting potion shouldn't cause any harm to the body, right?"
"No." Flauda gave an accurate reply.
"It's just that if too much energy is depleted, it's inconvenient to observe, and it might cause energy that the Ghost Ring King could originally absorb to disappear directly, which isn't worth it. But if you insist on letting the Ghost Ring King take it, I suggest you come to my place, or prepare an energy tester yourself to monitor its condition after consumption."
"Understood." Qiao Sang said.
"Teacher, do you have a high-grade energy-depleting potion on hand right now? I want it immediately."
"Yes." Flauda asked.
"Are you coming over to my place now?"
"No." Qiao Sang said.
"I'll have the Guinauke go fetch it."
Having spoken, she placed the phone in front of the Guinauke and said: "Help me fetch something."
"Gui gui..."
The Guinauke glanced at the human in front of it and didn't refuse, extending its claw into the phone screen.
"Qing qing...
Qingbao floated over to the side, revealing a novel expression that said this actually works too.
Sure enough, it's not just computers, as long as it's an electronic device, the Guinauke can enter it... Qiao Sang marveled inwardly.
After about a dozen seconds, the Guinauke withdrew its claw from the phone, holding a bottle of energy-depleting potion.
Qiao Sang placed the phone to her ear and said: "I've already received the energy-depleting potion on my end."
Flauda chuckled: "I didn't expect that I only mentioned the Guinauke once, and you already brought it over."
Pausing, he asked with a slightly puzzled tone: "I saw the news. Haven't you already found the Clothes-Changing Totem and cleared the Ghost Ring King's name? Why is the Guinauke still by your side?"
Because clearing his name isn't enough... Qiao Sang said: "Because I rented it for a full day and don't want to waste the credits."
Flauda: ...
Returning to the main topic, Flauda exhorted: "This energy-depleting potion is an A-grade. After letting the Ghost Ring King consume it, you must monitor its energy."
"Understood." Qiao Sang said solemnly.
After chatting for a few more words, she hung up the phone and took the energy-depleting potion from the Guinauke's claw.
"Gang zhan?"
Gangbao glanced at the energy-depleting potion and gave a cry, asking didn't you say you don't believe Little Treasure can complete his evolution before the Clothes-Changing Totem is apprehended?
"I don't believe it."
Qiao Sang looked at Little Treasure outside the floor-to-ceiling window, who was controlling his Shadow of Darkness and Substitute to unleash skills, and said calmly: "But since Little Treasure wants to evolve so badly, I have to make an effort to let him try."
Looking at her Tamer, Gangbao finally understood why her bond sensing had failed earlier.
Because at that time, what her Tamer was thinking about was simply letting Little Treasure evolve.
At this moment, the host broadcasting the news said: "Just moments ago, all personnel on Shuanghua Road have been safely evacuated, and the Public Security Bureau has successfully trapped the Clothes-Changing Totem..."
While broadcasting, the television screen switched to surveillance footage.
Qiao Sang and Yabao's group simultaneously looked at the television.
In the clear video footage, the Clothes-Changing Totem could be seen continuously teleporting in midair, slamming into and attacking a translucent barrier.
However, the barrier merely rippled with rapid waves and was not destroyed because of it.
"Xun xun..."
Just at this moment, Little Treasure floated back in, his face full of exhaustion.
Gangbao silently picked up the remote and changed the channel.
Beautifully done... Qiao Sang praised in her heart, then looked at Little Treasure and asked: "Is your energy all exhausted?"
"Xun xun..."
Little Treasure nodded tiredly, then raised his claw to reveal the real-time energy detection bracelet on it, tears spilling down unstoppably.
"Xun, xun xun..."
B-but the energy still hasn't stabilized...
Qiao Sang walked up to Little Treasure, handed the energy-depleting potion over, and said softly: "Then try taking this."
"Xun xun..."
With mucus hanging from his nose, Little Treasure lifted his head.
"I remember you've been training all day today and haven't taken an energy-depleting potion yet." Qiao Sang said.
"Xun xun..."
Little Treasure looked at the energy-depleting potion, reached out his claw to take it, and downed it in one gulp.
Time passed minute by minute.
Little Treasure raised his claw, keeping his eyes on the data on the real-time energy detection bracelet the entire time.
Unable to contain the curiosity in their hearts, Yabao and Qingbao also huddled over to watch.
The numbers on the real-time energy detection bracelet gradually slowed down from their initial frantic jumping, eventually fluctuating between only a few digits before finally stopping at 982,000, completely stabilizing.
"Xun xun!
Little Treasure's eyes grew brighter and brighter. After waiting a few seconds and seeing that the numbers on the real-time energy detection bracelet didn't move again, he looked at his Tamer and let out an excited cry.
It stabilized! His energy had stabilized!
"Yap yap!"
Yabao let out a cry, feeling happy for Little Treasure.
"Not bad, your energy has stabilized. Find all your evolution materials." Qiao Sang said with a smile.
"Xun xun!" Little Treasure sniffled his hanging mucus, quickly took off his round ring, and reached his claw inside.
The energy limit for a General-level pet is 1,000,000. 982,000 can only be considered as having stabilized, it hasn't reached the limit yet. However, the real-time energy detection bracelet itself can only detect an approximate range and isn't precise.
To understand the exact energy, one still needs to use an expensive energy tester, or otherwise, look at the Beast Codex...
Qiao Sang didn't say anything, directly entering her consciousness into the Beast Codex.
In fact, it didn't matter whether Little Treasure's energy had stabilized at the limit of a General-level pet's energy or not, her original intention was just to get his energy to stabilize.
As long as it was stable, whether it was 800,000 or 900,000, she could use the Beast Codex's cheat to directly bring him to the energy limit of a General-level pet, and then let him evolve.
The pages flipped, quickly turning to the page concerning Little Treasure.
Name: Ghost Ring King (Little Treasure)
Attributes: Ghost, Psychic
Level: General-level (992,001/1,000,000) +
It's no longer jumping... Seeing this, Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief.
One had to know that some time ago, the data concerning Little Treasure in the Beast Codex was just like the situation before with the real-time energy detection bracelet he wore, the data jumped frantically and couldn't stabilize at all.
She indeed hadn't had confidence in letting Little Treasure evolve before the Clothes-Changing Totem was arrested, but as long as his energy could stabilize, she would definitely let him evolve... Recalling Little Treasure's poor mood and frantic training from earlier, Qiao Sang hesitated no longer, frantically adding points.
"Xun xun~"
Little Treasure pulled out his evolution materials, solemnly arranging them in front of himself.
Qiao Sang opened her eyes, her tone carrying a smile as she said: "Begin."
"Xun xun!"
Little Treasure nodded, placing the Ghost Tear into his mouth, his left claw picking up the Umbral Marrow Silver, and his right claw picking up the Mingzhu Flower.
Immediately afterward, he swallowed the Ghost Tear.
At the same time, Qiao Sang's consciousness entered the Beast Codex, adding the final point behind Little Treasure's level.
She opened her eyes, only to see a bright white light flare up in front of her. She couldn't help but narrow her eyes, stepping back a few paces.
"Gui gui..."
Looking at the white light, the Guinauke revealed an envious expression.
"Qing qing..."
Qingbao revealed a surprised expression.
She hadn't expected Little Treasure to actually evolve today of all days.
Lubao's expression didn't change much, her tail merely wagging a few times, clearly also feeling happy for Little Treasure's evolution.
"Yap yap!"
Yabao, on the other hand, wagged his tail wildly, his face full of excitement.
"Gang zhan..."
Gangbao glanced at her Tamer, always feeling as if a powerful and mysterious aura enveloped her entire body.
Qiao Sang thought of something, pulled out her phone, and dialed Teacher Mikayla's number.
A few seconds later, the call went through.
"What's wrong?"
"Little Treasure is evolving.
Du du... The call hung up.
In the next second, Mikayla appeared in the living room wearing slippers.
"The Ghost Ring King is evolving this quickly?" Mikayla looked at the white light of evolution, a hint of shock flashing through her eyes.
The data given by Flauda clearly stated that the energy was still in an extremely unstable state, no matter how one sliced it, it should have taken at least a month or so.
"Little Treasure wanted to evolve quickly, so he trained through the night yesterday, and he's been training all day today as well. Just now, I also gave him a bottle of A-grade energy-depleting potion." Qiao Sang explained.
Mikayla was taken aback: "Is the Ghost Ring King that hardworking?"
In her impression, the Ghost Ring King didn't seem like the type to be so driven.
Qiao Sang said: "Did you forget? When you came over yesterday, he was also working hard at training."
Mikayla recalled for a moment and found that it really was the case.
Qiao Sang thought of something, came to the room to bring out a professional camera to set it up, aiming it at the white light.
It takes a long time for a General-level pet to evolve into a King-level pet. The Clothes-Changing Totem was already trapped earlier, and right now it's highly likely caught. Even if Little Treasure evolves, he won't be able to catch it. It's better to play the handsome look of his evolution back for him at that moment to make him happy...
While thinking, Qiao Sang looked at Gangbao, wanting her to praise him more when Little Treasure finished evolving.
Pets could also hear surrounding sounds when they evolved, so she could only communicate with Gangbao via thoughts.
"Gang zhan."
However, before she could state her thoughts in her mind, Gangbao took the initiative to give a cry in her mind, indicating she knew what to do.
It's actually quite nice to have a pet that shares a mutual understanding with oneself... Qiao Sang felt touched.
"Since the Ghost Ring King can evolve today, then after the Steel Sword Falcon finishes soaking in the Energy Bath, we will set off." Mikayla said.
"Where to?" Qiao Sang asked.
"We'll look at the Fate Spirit's prediction when the time comes." Mikayla said.
"Can't we make the prediction right now?" Qiao Sang asked again
Mikayla explained patiently: "Only taking action immediately after testing is the most accurate."
So that's how it is... Qiao Sang felt like she had gained more knowledge once again.
Time trickled away bit by bit.
Unsure of how much time had passed.
The white light in front of them finally dissipated.
Qiao Sang focused her gaze to look.
A pet with a body size of around seventy centimeters appeared before her eyes. Its body was largely black, and on its head rested a golden crown larger than its head. The crown was covered in purple patterns, with several strands of golden hair wrapped around its perimeter, and a long golden braid curled out from within the crown.
Golden rings hung from both sides of its ears, its two claws, and its neck, and its golden eyes shot out a majestic aura.
It looked both like Little Treasure and unlike Little Treasure.
"Xun xun!"
With both claws resting on his hips, Little Treasure split his mouth into a grin, letting out a highly spirited cry.
The majesty in his eyes completely dissolved.
Now it looks like Little Treasure... Qiao Sang said to herself.
"Yap yap!" Yabao let out an excited cry.
"Lu di." Lubao's tail wagged twice, her expression calm.
"Qing qing..."
Qingbao floated around and around Little Treasure, sizing him over curiously.
"Gang zhan!"
"Gang zhan!"
Gangbao shed her usual composure, looking at Little Treasure with an admiring expression that said so handsome, how can you be this handsome.
"Xun xun~"
Under Gangbao's praise, Little Treasure's back grew straighter and straighter, his head lifting higher and higher.
Subsequently, he thought of something, his eyes flashing with blue light as he looked toward the television.
The television had changed channels.
The young host was still broadcasting the relevant news: "Just moments ago, the Public Security Bureau successfully apprehended the Clothes-Changing Totem..."

T/n: What's your two hated story tropes? And if were to happen to you, what would you choose between the two? I'm very curious bout this one. Me is the accidental pregnancy trope then the miscommunication trope. I take the latter trope any day, coz I ain't raising no baby in this economy.
