He didn’t even bother to retrieve the many bags he had stored earlier, and as soon as he left the restaurant, Lin Su headed straight for the hotel without hesitation.
Although Qiuqiu’s wound had barely stopped bleeding with the help of the Beast Taming Space, there could be no delay; he must receive proper treatment as soon as possible.
Feeling Qiuqiu’s pain in the Beast Taming Space, his heart ached all the more.
But he didn’t regret having Qiuqiu fight the Green Feathered Eagle with all its might, and he believed Qiuqiu felt the same.
"Hey, young man, stop a second!”
There was a voice coming from behind.
Is that calling me?
Lin Su slowed his pace slightly and turned to look back.
He saw a young man and woman, about his age, running toward him.
As Lin Su stopped, the two hurriedly quickened their steps until they reached him."Whew! You sure run fast, I almost couldn’t catch up,” Zhang Xuyang gasped for breath and smiled amiably at Lin Su, “Let me introduce myself, I…”
"Sorry, whatever it is, we can talk about it later. I need to get my beast treated as soon as possible,” Lin Su apologized, interrupting the stranger and spoke without hesitation.
Although still in the commercial area near the hotel, there was still some distance to the hotel—a walk of more than ten minutes. Right now, he could only think of treating Qiuqiu; nothing was more important than Qiuqiu’s well-being.
"Oh right, your beast is injured,” Zhang Xuyang suddenly remembered, and then offered immediately, “I have a healing beast, how about I treat it for you?”
Hmm?
Upon hearing this offer, Lin Su’s steps came to an abrupt halt.
Getting Qiuqiu treated earlier than possibly waiting another ten minutes to reach the hotel for Qin Nan to take care of it didn’t seem like a bad idea.
With this thought in mind, Lin Su looked toward Zhang Xuyang, “Thank you. I can offer Energy Cubes as a token of gratitude.”
"No need, no need, it’s nothing,” Zhang Xuyang shook his head and smiled. Beneath his feet, a web of light goose-yellow intertwined, and a Mushroom Baby quietly appeared beside him.
[Sequence IAM-0066
Species Name: Mushroom Baby
Species Tier: Lower Leader Tier
Attribute: Wood
Growth Tier: Elite Tier
Normal Energy Value: 4533P
Talent Skills: Healing Spore (Core Skill), Spore Parasite, Vitality Breath]
The Mushroom Baby in front of him was one growth tier lower than Qin Nan’s, but an Elite Tier Mushroom Baby’s healing abilities were already quite strong, more than enough to treat Qiuqiu’s injuries.
After examining the data displayed on the detector, Lin Su nodded, summoned Qiuqiu from the Beast Taming Space, and gently cradled it in his palm, placing it on the Mushroom Baby’s cap, soft as a pillow, “Please take care of her.”
"Gugi gugu! (*^o^*)” (Leave it to me!)
Little dots of pale green light emerged from the cap of the Mushroom Baby, converging towards the fierce wound on Qiuqiu’s paw. As the light slowly merged into the wound, the bleeding, which had resumed after Qiuqiu left the Beast Taming Space, immediately stopped, and the split flesh began to close up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Only then did Lin Su breathe a complete sigh of relief, turning his head to look at the Mushroom Baby’s Beast Tamer, “I really can’t thank you enough.”
"Don’t mention it,” Zhang Xuyang smiled, “Do you have time for a chat now?”
"Yes, what is it you wanted to talk about?” Lin Su inquired.
"Actually, it’s nothing important. I saw your battle with the Green Feathered Eagle from beginning to end, and frankly, I’m impressed that you could train your beast to such a level at its juvenile stage. So I wanted to get to know you. Let me introduce myself again—I’m Zhang Xuyang, a freshman at Capital University.”
"So you’re a senior. My name is Lin Su.” Lin Su’s eyes widened with a hint of surprise. Getting into Capital University was no easy feat; he hadn’t expected to meet a Beast Tamer from there.
"This is my cousin, Zhang Qingqing. She just graduated from high school this year. I guess you’re probably the same age as her, right?” After introducing himself, Zhang Xuyang turned to introduce the anxious girl crouching beside the Mushroom Baby and watching Qiuqiu intently.
"Hello, may I touch your beast? I promise not to disturb its treatment!” Upon seeing Qiuqiu up close, Zhang Qingqing’s eyes sparkled, and following her cousin’s introduction, she asked the question.
"You may,” Lin Su nodded slightly, seeing the expression on Qiuqiu relax a bit under the Mushroom Baby’s treatment and no longer hearing the pain-filled moans.
Observing the girl’s cautious touch on Qiuqiu, Lin Su let go of his last bit of wariness and turned towards Zhang Xuyang, “Yes, I’ve also just graduated from high school.”
"Have you thought about which program to apply for at Capital University?” Zhang Xuyang chuckled, unable to resist asking, “The registration for the university admission assessment will start soon; you must have considered it, right? Maybe I can give you some advice?”
Zhang Xuyang hadn’t considered the possibility that such a talented young man living in the first district wouldn’t apply to Capital University.
He secretly hoped that Lin Su would apply for the same major as himself, so that they would interact more in the future and form a good relationship. University was unlike high school; networking was very important.
"Um…” Lin Su’s expression turned slightly awkward, “Senior, you might be misunderstanding; I’m probably going to apply for Mountain City University.”
Although Qin Nan hadn’t explicitly said he had to apply for Mountain City University, having grown accustomed to the Evolver Institute, Lin Su had already made up his mind to do so.
