205: Chapter 205 Changing Pants

As the owner of the Sharp-toothed Piglet, Tang Yao had spent quite some time in the world of Fantasy Jianghu. She had gained a good understanding of attributes, skills, and other unique game elements. After seeing the attributes of her Sharp Tooth clearly, she couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.

Of course, what made her happiest wasn't that Sharp Tooth's attributes had suddenly become much stronger after swallowing the monster essence, but rather that in the bottom right corner of Sharp Tooth's attribute panel, there was an additional note for 'Resurrection': 'Current pet will resurrect 24 hours after death.'

It was just a short sentence, and even when Tang Yao focused her consciousness on this note, no further information appeared. However, this short note was enough!

"Sharp Tooth can resurrect!" Tang Yao shared happily with Gualing and Xiao Niao.

Gualing was stunned for a moment, then a look of happiness appeared on his face. "That's great. From now on, you can rest assured and let it fight alongside us. I think its current strength is quite decent; keeping it hiding in the back is just a waste of combat power."

"Okay, okay." Tang Yao had no objections and agreed happily. She then held Sharp Tooth and instructed it: "In the future, you can't run away when you encounter monsters. You have to fight with us."

Tang Yao spoke to the Sharp-toothed Piglet, which had finished eating the monster essence and looked exactly the same as before, except for its name turning green. To her surprise, the Sharp-toothed Piglet nodded in a human-like manner, as if it could understand what she was saying.

Seeing the Sharp-toothed Piglet being so well-behaved and sensible, Tang Yao said in a doting tone: "But you don't have to be afraid. Your big brother Xiao Niao can cast Recovery Spell. When you get hurt, he will definitely help you recover." As she spoke, Tang Yao pointed her finger at Xiao Niao, clearly introducing to Sharp Tooth who its big brother Xiao Niao was.

Xiao Niao didn't think much of it at first, thinking it was just healing. It didn't matter who he healed, as long as this Sharp-toothed Piglet could stand in front when encountering monsters, it was no problem for him to cast a few 'Recovery Spell's on it. However, when Tang Yao pointed at him at the end, the Sharp-toothed Piglet really seemed to understand and looked over in the direction Tang Yao was pointing. It gave him the feeling of meeting distant relatives during holidays, where the relative pulls their child over to greet him. Moreover, looking at the human-like expression on the Sharp-toothed Piglet as it looked at him, Xiao Niao had no doubt that if this Sharp-toothed Piglet could speak, it would shyly call him 'Big Brother Xiao Niao'. This inexplicable association made Xiao Niao feel a wave of awkwardness. Although the Sharp-toothed Piglet was indeed quite cute and he didn't dislike it, the little guy was still a pig after all... "Heh, heh." Xiao Niao awkwardly avoided the gazes of Tang Yao and Sharp Tooth.

However, amidst the awkwardness, Xiao Niao couldn't help but ponder the changes in the Sharp-toothed Piglet.

He had checked Sharp Tooth's attributes before, back when they were outside the cave. Tang Yao had dragged Sharp Tooth to enter the cave, but Sharp Tooth refused to go in because it was afraid of the things inside... At that time, Sharp Tooth's attributes were very simple, only showing a white name and health points, and even the 'Charge' skill wasn't displayed. If other attributes and skills, along with the 24-hour Resurrection mechanism, were unlocked after the Sharp-toothed Piglet swallowed the monster essence and evolved into the green superior grade, the 'Charge' skill had been witnessed by them in previous battles, and it had even caused a 'Stun' status twice, playing a significant role! In other words, the 'Charge' skill was possessed by the Sharp-toothed Piglet at least before it ate that monster essence.

Then why hadn't this 'Charge' skill, which it already possessed, been seen in the Sharp-toothed Piglet's attribute page before? Why did it only appear in the attribute column after it ate the monster essence?

Tang Yao and Hu Gualing didn't care about these trivial details, but Xiao Niao was different. He had been introverted and shy since he was a child and was not good at communicating with others. He often thought about his own things silently in his heart, so his mind gradually became meticulous, and he could notice many details that were easily overlooked. This was the case when writing code, doing business, and even playing games.

Now his keen intuition told him that the changes in Sharp Tooth after eating the monster essence didn't seem wrong, but unfortunately, when he thought about it carefully, he always felt something was off.

Why was a skill that it already possessed not displayed before, and only shown after it swallowed the monster essence and advanced?

Xiao Niao frowned and thought, feeling that he had vaguely grasped a clue, but was suddenly patted heavily on the shoulder. Looking up, he saw Gualing with one hand on his shoulder, while the other hand took out a pair of beginner linen pants from his backpack. "I just remembered your pants are torn. Although it doesn't affect the battle much, it's not comfortable to be bare-bottomed, is it? Take my pants and change into them." Hu Gualing very generously handed over the beginner linen pants in his hand.

Xiao Niao was stunned for a moment, but soon remembered that this was the linen pants Hu Gualing wore before changing into the 'pants of the vibrant white boar'. These pants were almost identical to the ones he was wearing now. It was likely something that every new player had when creating a character, and it wasn't worth much. Plus, since Gualing now had that blue-quality white wild boar pants, these beginner linen pants were of no use to him. Since that was the case, Xiao Niao smiled in a friendly manner and accepted the pants from Gualing's hand without any burden.

These linen pants were useless to Gualing, but they were quite good for him. Because the seat of the pants he was wearing now had long been torn with two holes and a piece of fabric had been ripped off. Although he didn't feel anything while fighting the Mutated White Wild Boar because he was full of tension, now that the boss had been defeated and the loot had been picked up and distributed, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable as he relaxed. Although Gualing's linen pants were a bit loose, they were at least intact. He had to change into them quickly and couldn't let his butt be exposed for a long time.

Xiao Niao thought to himself, but then heard Hu Gualing ask casually: "By the way, Xiao Niao, what were you thinking about just now?"

"Was I?" Xiao Niao thought for a moment, but for a while, he couldn't remember what he had been pondering. However, it probably wasn't anything important, so he didn't dig deeper. "Probably just a normal lapse in concentration, it's not important. Anyway, where should I go to change these pants?"
