Chapter 82: Energy Recovery Liquid

Aunt Wang and Mother were neighbors since childhood, and their hometown was also on Water Trade Road. However, Aunt Wang married a man who lived in the town center at Chen Chun Community.

Qiaosang rode a bicycle, which her aunt usually used for grocery shopping, to the town center.

Firefang sat in the front basket, while Little Treasure Ghost, as usual, perched on Qiaosang's head.

Qiaosang allowed Little Treasure Ghost to always perch on her head.

Who could refuse a pet beast that helped block the sun on a scorching summer day?

Chen Chun Community.

After parking the bicycle, Qiaosang went to Unit 501, Building A.

Aunt Wang opened the door and stood there in a daze for a moment.

She looked Qiaosang up and down, her gaze lingering on Firefang and Little Treasure Ghost for a longer time, then said in disbelief, "Qiaosang?"

"It's me, Aunt. Mom asked me to bring something to you," Qiaosang said.

"Come in, come in quickly. You've grown into such a big girl, I almost didn't recognize you," Aunt Wang said hurriedly.

Qiaosang remembered her baby fat and flat chest when she looked in the full-length mirror this morning.

A big girl?

No.

She was still a little girl...

"Aunt, this is what Mom asked me to bring you," Qiaosang said, sitting on the sofa and giving Little Treasure Ghost a nod.

Little Treasure Ghost, being very understanding, took out the specialty from the ring.

"Your mom is really something, making you come all the way here and even bringing gifts. Why be so formal?" Aunt Wang laughed.

She got up, poured two cups of tea, and placed them on the coffee table, ready for a heart-to-heart chat.

"I heard from your mom that you got into Saint Water High School?" Aunt Wang asked.

"Um, yes," Qiaosang replied.

"I also heard from your mom that you participated in a competition right after graduation and won first place," Aunt Wang probed.

"Um, yes," Qiaosang wasn't surprised at all that her mom had mentioned these things.

I didn't expect that what Xiangting said was actually true...

I just questioned her yesterday, and today her daughter comes to slap me in the face...

Aunt Wang suddenly felt that her proud son wasn't so great anymore.

"What do you usually eat?" Aunt Wang suddenly asked.

"Ah? Whatever Mom cooks, I eat it," Qiaosang replied, a bit taken aback.

Looks like I need to ask Xiangting for the recipe...

Then I'll have to listen to her boasting again...

"How about your daily routine?" Aunt Wang continued.

Qiaosang was a bit stunned; it felt like a doctor asking a patient questions...

Before Qiaosang could answer, Aunt Wang asked several more questions in a row.

"Did you go to any tutoring classes in your third year of junior high?"

"What does Firefang usually eat?"

"How do you usually get along with Firefang?"

"Actually, my son wanted to contract a fire-type pet beast as his first, but I refused. What do you think about him contracting a fire-type as his second?"

Qiaosang: "..."

She understood; this was an interview.

Qiaosang politely declined Aunt Wang's invitation to stay for dinner and called her mother to report that her mission was completed.

Mother was very satisfied.

...

Qiaosang rode her bicycle back to the old house, where Firefang was still leisurely drinking milk.

Qiyuan milk could restore a pet beast's stamina, but the effect wasn't immediate.

Even after drinking several bottles, Firefang hadn't fully recovered.

With so much free time, it would be a waste to follow the same training schedule as in Hanggang during the summer.

Qiaosang quickly had an idea.

As someone with hundreds of thousands of credits, she went straight to online shopping and bought 30 bottles of F-grade energy recovery liquid.

F-grade energy recovery liquid was used to restore the energy of beginner pet beasts.

People living in the city usually didn't need to buy energy recovery liquid; they just let their pet beasts recover naturally.

For competitions, the organizers provided energy recovery liquid and other supplies, so taming masters didn't need to buy them.

Most people who bought energy recovery liquid were taming masters heading to secret realms.

People who could go to secret realms wouldn't casually summon beginner pet beasts, as they were useless in secret realms.

This led to a significant difference in the sales volume and price of F-grade energy recovery liquid compared to other grades.

However, even so, one bottle of F-grade energy recovery liquid cost 2000 Alliance Credits.

After all, for taming masters whose pet beasts lacked healing skills, this could be crucial in secret realms.

Girls can't stop shopping once they start, and Qiaosang was no exception. After buying the F-grade energy recovery liquid, she started looking at other items.

She used to have no money, but now that she had money, she naturally wanted to look around more.

Qiaosang lay on the bed, scrolling through her phone, while Little Treasure Ghost floated over and curiously stared at the screen.

The phone displayed items needed for fire-type pet beasts.

Qiaosang wanted to buy an item that could accelerate the absorption and condensation of fire-type energy for Firefang.

Such items were always in high demand on the market.

They could speed up energy absorption, shorten the growth cycle of pet beasts, and help them evolve faster.

Although Firefang had a golden finger, it wasn't possible to fight 24 hours a day and always win.

Having an additional way to absorb energy was definitely beneficial.

Moreover, such items could help pet beasts release corresponding attribute skills faster.

Although they weren't allowed in competitions, they were useful at other times.

Qiaosang looked for a long time and finally chose an E-grade Fire Condensation Pearl.

The prices of pet beast items varied greatly.

It depended not only on the item's grade but also on who made it.

If the maker was a master whose name could be found online, even an F-grade item made by them would be more expensive than a D-grade item made by a certified but unknown pet beast forger.

Qiaosang specifically chose a small shop with good reviews and credibility.

After a long conversation with the customer service and promising to post beautiful pictures and a long positive review, she finally bought it for 120,000 Alliance Credits.

Although the customer service gave her a significant discount, she still felt it was too expensive.

If an E-grade item made by an unknown pet beast forger cost this much, who could afford higher-grade B or A items?

No wonder the richer taming masters were more powerful.

Others could buy items as easily as playing, while you had to risk your life to buy them. How could you compare?

Just as Qiaosang was about to exit the online store and look at other things, a gray short toe suddenly appeared on her phone screen.

Turning her head, she saw Little Treasure Ghost looking at her with watery eyes.

"Xun~"

Little Treasure Ghost cooed affectionately.

Qiaosang: "..."

"You're still too young. I'll buy it for you in a month."

Little Treasure Ghost was taken aback, then took out a bottle of milk from the ring and handed it to Qiaosang.

"Xun~"

"Xun xun."

Qiaosang: "..."
