148: Chapter 148 Stone Cocoon
Stone Cocoon, as the name suggests, is a state where a Pet Beast, upon its health dropping to a certain limit, transforms into a Stone Cocoon enveloped by rock elements.
The Stone Cocoon is extremely sturdy and difficult to destroy. A Pet Beast that enters this state will fall into a long slumber, slowly recovering from its injuries.
Yue Yun finished browsing the skill details, his brows slightly furrowed: "Miao Sang shares health points with me. If I continue to be attacked, will Miao Sang be unable to be immune even if it enters the Stone Cocoon state?"
A flash of inspiration passed through his mind.
Perhaps he could choose a skill that forcibly restores a large amount of health when health drops to the limit. After all, Miao Sang does not need to participate in battle, so there is no need to worry about subsequent weakness or other issues.
Mo Yu shook his head slightly: "There are quite a few life-saving skills suitable for Miao Sang, but there really aren't many suitable for you. Have you ever thought that your own combat power is limited? If you are suppressed head-on or even beaten to zero health, no matter how much health you restore, the effect will be limited."
He looked Yue Yun in the eyes, his tone serious and without a hint of jest, clearly thinking earnestly for Yue Yun.
"Besides, you are going to the front lines of the Mist Sea in the future. When you go into battle yourself, there is absolutely no need to release Miao Sang."
"What do you mean?" Yue Yun said, lost in thought.
He vaguely realized the intention behind Pan Xuan's recommendation of the life-saving skill—it was not to protect himself, but to protect Miao Sang, who lived and died with him but lacked combat power.
Seeing the change in Yue Yun's expression, Mo Yu knew that he had understood the intention behind choosing the life-saving skill.
"You are no longer Miao Sang's weak point, but Miao Sang has become your weak point. Only by protecting Miao Sang from external pressure can you completely let go and go all out."
[Life Manifestation] quantifies Yue Yun's life, making him immune to various substantial damage, almost equivalent to being immortal.
Enemies who have fought him would definitely not choose to attack him, but would instead target the flesh-and-blood Miao Sang.
"I understand."
Yue Yun's eyes gradually became firm.
"The Stone Cocoon skill is good. I'll choose this one!"
...
The third floor of the Beast Tamer Service Center.
Steam billowed in the lounge. Pan Xuan leaned against the edge of the bath, closing his eyes to rest, relaxing his body after two weeks of exhaustion.
His phone suddenly let out a sharp sound.
Pan Xuan's majestic eyes snapped open. He quickly dried his hands and picked up the phone. When he saw the targeted skills requested by Xu Qingfang and the others, his eyes were filled with satisfaction.
Especially Yue Yun's choice, which made him even more gratified.
"Being able to listen to advice is a good thing!"
The Stone Cocoon skill is indeed a good skill.
Although Yue Yun is smart, his judgment is not yet enough to support him in choosing this skill; it was clearly recommended to him by Mo Yu.
Pan Xuan approved their applications one by one, leaned back against the edge of the bath again to rest, and muttered to himself.
"If only they would cause less trouble for me!"
That is impossible.
With the Three Heavenly Kings gathered together, wouldn't it be a waste of their skills and their precious youth if they didn't cause trouble?
Thus, when Pan Xuan came out of the Beast Tamer Association, he encountered the Three Heavenly Kings forming a human wall to block him at the stairs.
Pan Xuan's face darkened on the spot.
"What are you three trying to do again?"
The Beast Tamer Association has very strict control over the Secret Realm. Violating the requirements would result in being banned from entering the Secret Realm at best, and being killed on the spot at worst.
These three dare to cause trouble here? It's purely like an old man eating arsenic—courting death!
Seeing Pan Xuan's expression becoming increasingly unfriendly, Mo Yu hurriedly stepped forward, his demeanor respectful and humble: "Teacher, how could you think that of us? This is truly a huge misunderstanding. We just saw that you have been exhausted for two weeks and wanted to share some of the pressure for you, so you can rest well and continue to lead us to sing all the way on the path of the Beast Tamer!"
Mo Yu spoke with passion, his tone rising and falling.
As he spoke, he paid attention to Pan Xuan's expression, even squeezing his eyes hard, trying to squeeze out some tears.
Pan Xuan closed his eyes, unable to bear looking at him.
He said angrily: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, spit it out!"
"Teacher, you really misunderstood."
Mo Yu remained calm and said righteously: "We know in our hearts how the teacher treats us, so we sincerely hope that the teacher will rest well and continue to lead us."
Pan Xuan did not answer.
"Although the conditions in Cangyuan Town are good, the teacher has stayed in the city for so long, so you must be unaccustomed to this place, right?"
Pan Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"My suggestion is for us to go back quickly so that you, Teacher, can rest earlier and recover your energy faster."
Mo Yu finally revealed his true intentions.
Pan Xuan's narrowed eyes swept over the Three Heavenly Kings. Mo Yu's face was full of fawning and treacherous expressions, while Xu Qingfang and Yue Yun also had shameless, fawning smiles, looking exactly like errand boys.
He sighed heavily.
Since the Three Heavenly Kings had said this much, how could he not know their thoughts? They just thought the bus was slow and wanted a ride.
After a jingle, Pan Xuan took the car keys from his waist and threw them to the Three Heavenly Kings, then spoke in a deep voice.
"Xu Qingfang, Yue Yun, Mo Yu."
"Yes?"
"Get lost!"
Pan Xuan's voice was full of energy.
The Three Heavenly Kings disappeared from view, scrambling away, and arrived at the parking lot outside Cangyuan Town in the blink of an eye.
They took the school bus when they came, but they were driving themselves on the way back.
The speed was naturally incomparable to the bus.
The feeling of racing on the road was free and unrestrained, making the Three Heavenly Kings feel comfortable all over. Recalling the impromptu trip after the Campus Championship, the car was suddenly filled with laughter.
If it weren't for being homesick, the Three Heavenly Kings might have changed course to drive to other cities and take another trip like that.
The journey there was slow and leisurely, but the way back was naturally faster.
Mo Yu drove the car to Jianghai Second Middle School: "I'll go park. Let's meet at the school gate tomorrow, then go to the Beast Tamer Association to collect the first batch of Awakening resources, and then go to my house."
The last sentence was spoken to Yue Yun.
Xu Qingfang and Yue Yun had no objections.
A gray-white contract rose in Yue Yun's hand. The summoned Miao Sang yawned, clawed at Yue Yun to climb onto his shoulder, and comfortably narrowed its beautiful cat eyes.
Yue Yun raised his hand to fiddle with Miao Sang's whiskers. Miao Sang's nose twitched, shaking its long and stiff whiskers, but it had no intention of resisting.
Yue Yun smiled and walked toward the Beef Noodle Restaurant.
"Uncle, a large bowl of beef noodles, extra noodles!"
The noodle restaurant owner was scrolling through short videos. Hearing this familiar voice, he was stunned for a moment, then put on a serious expression.
He knew that his opponent had arrived.
"Is the special training over?"
The noodle restaurant owner chatted casually, his hands moving quickly to drop the noodles into the pot to boil. At the same time, he took out the super large bowl reserved specifically for Yue Yun, preparing to feed this big eater.
Yue Yun responded just as casually, sat down in the noodle restaurant with familiarity, and held Miao Sang in his arms to caress and tease it.
When the super large bowl filled with noodles was served, Yue Yun, under the expectant gaze of the noodle restaurant owner, ate the noodles in a jiffy as he wished.
Yue Yun wiped his mouth with satisfaction: "Full!"
The noodle restaurant owner heaved a sigh of relief.
Uncle absolutely does not allow any child to go hungry in his shop!
In a good mood, Yue Yun got up to pay the bill, not forgetting to chat with the noodle restaurant owner for a few sentences. Miao Sang also took the opportunity to climb back onto Yue Yun's shoulder and lay down comfortably again.
Yue Yun walked towards the residential area with his hands in his pockets, his slender figure bathed in sunlight, glistening like gold.
