Chapter 86: The Adventures of the Magnetic Mouse

5 min read1,279 words

This summer vacation, the ultimate goal of returning to her hometown was to train Firefang to evolve.

Finding some wild extraordinary creatures to battle was part of the training plan.

Actually, Jiao Sang's favorite place was the small forest in Tan'an Township.

Because climbing the mountain was troublesome, while the small forest in Tan'an Township was on flat ground, making it easy to come and go.

But since she had already come to the foot of Huangming Mountain, she thought she might as well go up and train with some wild pet beasts.

On Huangming Mountain.

Jiao Sang vigilantly observed her surroundings.

Although this was not a secret realm, and high-level wild extraordinary creatures would not appear, necessary safety precautions were still required.

When facing an environment with wild pet beasts, the biggest taboo was to be careless.

The mountain path was winding, and Jiao Sang walked on the narrow path, with Firefang and the Magnetic Mouse leading the way.

The surroundings were eerily quiet; after walking for several minutes, she hadn't seen a single wild pet beast.

Jiao Sang focused her gaze on the Magnetic Mouse leading the way.

It wasn't that there were no wild pet beasts at all…

The Magnetic Mouse's body trembled, inexplicably feeling a chill.

Ten minutes later.

Jiao Sang finally saw the first wild pet beast — a Saddle Velvetworm.

Its body was brown with a yellow-green saddle, making it look like a saddle, and its saddle-like body was covered with white, velvety fine hair.

"Firefang!" Jiao Sang immediately called out.

"Fire!"

Firefang immediately stopped and assumed a battle stance, while the Magnetic Mouse was startled and also stopped.

The little treasure seeker was perched on Jiao Sang's head, watching curiously.

The Saddle Velvetworm heard the noise, turned its head to look, and then slowly crawled past Jiao Sang without any concern.

Jiao Sang stood there, stunned for a moment.

This was quite awkward…

Some low-level wild pet beasts were quite simple and non-aggressive; as long as you didn't provoke them, they wouldn't attack without reason.

The Saddle Velvetworm clearly belonged to this category.

Jiao Sang found it hard to bring herself to attack such a type of wild pet beast.

"Fire?"

Firefang looked at its tamer in confusion.

Jiao Sang cleared her throat and said, "It's fine, I just wanted you to be careful while walking."

"Fire."

Firefang felt embarrassed.

It had misunderstood its tamer's intention.

After walking for another ten minutes on the mountain path.

The Magnetic Mouse stopped and pointed to a certain spot, making an inviting gesture.

"Magnetic."

"Magnetic, magnetic."

Without needing Firefang to translate, Jiao Sang understood the Magnetic Mouse's meaning from its actions.

She was about to refuse when her peripheral vision suddenly caught something.

Compared to other areas, the grass in that spot was moving particularly noticeably.

"Firefang!"

"Fire!"

Firefang's eyes changed, and it once again assumed a battle stance.

In the next second, a slightly larger Magnetic Mouse suddenly emerged from the grass and launched an attack without hesitation.

Golden electricity spread from its body, and an electric arc instantly shot straight at Jiao Sang.

Seeing this, Firefang didn't think twice and rushed forward to block the electric arc with its body.

Fortunately, Jiao Sang quickly reacted and grabbed Firefang, rolling to the side.

The electric arc hit the ground, sparks flew, and a small pit was left behind.

"Fire!"

"Fire, fire!"

Firefang turned back and looked at Jiao Sang with concern.

"I'm fine," Jiao Sang quickly got up and shook her head.

She was afraid that if she moved slowly, another electric arc would hit her.

After seeing that its tamer was fine, Firefang's body suddenly burst into red flames. It angrily looked at the suddenly appearing Magnetic Mouse and was about to charge forward.

However, just as Firefang was about to charge, the Magnetic Mouse actually rose into the air, floating there.

"Magnetic!!!"

The floating Magnetic Mouse struggled desperately, its eyes glaring at Jiao Sang, as if it wanted to bite her.

Jiao Sang also noticed the commotion and turned to look at the little treasure seeker.

At this moment, the little treasure seeker's eyes no longer held curiosity.

It glowed blue, its body floated in the air, and its yellow eyes turned blue.

Jiao Sang was stunned for a moment.

Using telekinesis to control objects and living beings were two completely different concepts.

The energy required for the latter was much greater.

Yet, the little treasure seeker could use telekinesis to control another creature, and it was a wild pet beast struggling fiercely.

Considering the little treasure seeker was only four days old…

Firefang quickly regained its senses.

It dug its hind legs into the ground, and the flames on its body expanded. In a flash, it charged forward.

Its speed was so fast that it seemed like a red flash.

Just as Firefang leaped to collide with the Magnetic Mouse, a yellow figure blocked in front of the Magnetic Mouse.

Firefang's fiery charge was so powerful that it knocked the yellow figure and the Magnetic Mouse it was protecting away.

"Magnetic!"

"Magnetic!"

The two Magnetic Mice cried out in pain simultaneously.

In no time, both Magnetic Mice fainted.

Jiao Sang looked at the smaller Magnetic Mouse that had just rushed out to block, and everything became clear.

The larger Magnetic Mouse that had suddenly attacked was clearly acquainted with the Magnetic Mouse she had brought back.

It must have recognized her as a bad person and chosen to attack…

Jiao Sang looked at the Magnetic Mouse she had brought back, which was now lying unconscious on the ground, with sympathy.

This child had been through a lot these past few days.

After finally escaping and almost making it home, such a distressing event had to happen.

She felt this experience could be written into a book.

She had even thought of a title: "The Adventures of the Magnetic Mouse."

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

Firefang, realizing it had knocked out the small companion it had been chatting with, ran to Jiao Sang's side, calling out anxiously.

"It's fine, you didn't do it on purpose. Even if you had noticed it blocking the way during your charge, you wouldn't have been able to control the fiery charge in such a short distance," Jiao Sang patted Firefang's head to comfort it. "I have medicine, and it can be used to treat it."

Since she hadn't contracted a pet beast with healing skills, Jiao Sang had bought some healing medicine to be prepared for any emergencies.

She had bought some healing medicine from the pet beast base after contracting the little treasure seeker.

Even if she didn't go to a secret realm, it was always good to have some on hand.

Sure enough, it came in handy so quickly.

"Little treasure, medicine." Jiao Sang turned to look at the little treasure seeker.

Firefang already had a name, and Jiao Sang didn't want to favor one over the other. But she couldn't think of a good name, so she simply called it Little Treasure, removing the "ghost" part.

The name had been used for two days, and the little treasure seeker liked it very much.

The little treasure seeker was currently floating beside the larger Magnetic Mouse, about to use a Dream Eater to restore its energy.

When Jiao Sang called it, the little treasure seeker's body stiffened, feeling as if it had been caught doing something bad.

"Treasure~"

The little treasure seeker decisively abandoned what it had intended to do.

It floated back to Jiao Sang's side, took off the ring, and pulled out a bottle of medical spray.
