Chapter 28: Increase in Stats
In the following days, Xia Xin wandered around various enclosures at the zoo. At first, the staff in other enclosures were surprised by her presence, but later on, they ignored her and let her take photos of the animals or even touch and feed them.
What surprised the other zoo employees the most was that no matter how aggressive and disobedient the animals usually were, they would become gentle and friendly when they saw Xia Xin. It seemed like all the animals had lost their aggressiveness toward humans in her presence.
Because Xia Xin often appeared in other enclosures, many visitors would also take photos of Xia Xin when she and the other caretakers took videos of animals.
Hence, the netizens saw the following scenes:
The giraffe plucked a red and big fruit from the tree, bit it, and handed it to Xia Xin, as if saying, " Here, eat it."
The dolphins in the aquarium floated up and down in front of Xia Xin, showing an extremely enthusiastic "smile".
The cute little sea otters took out all kinds of "treasures" hidden in their armpits and gave them to Xia Xin.
…
In front of Xia Xin, all the animals did not seem to have any aggression and were extremely friendly to humans. Netizens could see the harmony and friendship between humans and animals from Xia Xin and the small animals.
For young people living under great pressure in modern society, the videos of Xia Xin interacting with the animals appeared relaxed and beautiful. They gradually fell in love with watching Xia Xin's interactions with the animals, feeling a magical "stress relief" from the videos.
In just over half a month, Xia Xin's fan base on the streaming platform had reached 470,000. For an ordinary person, gaining so many followers in less than a month was incredible.
Netizens gave Xia Xin affectionate nicknames like "Elf Princess" and "Little Sunshine."
The high-intensity interaction with various animals every day also rapidly increased the Animal Affinity points in the Beast Language System. Xia Xin's Stamina point quickly rose from 71 to 80. She could only allocate the remaining points to her Appearance and Charisma.
The basic stats panel was soon updated.
Host: Xia Xin
Age: 21
Stamina: 80
Appearance: 80
Charisma: 80
Beast Mastery: Newbie
After reaching 80 points in all basic stats, Xia Xin could continue to increase them further by earning 1000 Animal Affinity points.
After Xia Xin's Appearance and Charisma, both reached 80 points, she could feel a noticeable change in herself. Her originally fair skin became even smoother and more delicate, almost like that of a newborn baby. Her facial features became more exquisite and radiant.
The increase in Charisma made Xia Xin's aura even more charming, though she did not feel it herself. However, she noticed that the attention from the opposite sex seemed to be growing.
Tang Hai's attitude towards Xia Xin became even warmer, and he had asked her out for dinner and a movie several times, all of which she had refused.
Xia Xin felt somewhat uneasy. She did not want to increase her Appearance and Charisma; she just wanted to live as an ordinary person after being reborn.
Xia Xin had also asked the system if she could maintain her current stats, but the system said that if the basic stats did not improve, it would have an impact on the subsequent upgrades in Beast Mastery.
The system did not explicitly explain the specific impact, but Xia Xin vaguely guessed the connection between the two. She had no choice but to accept the setting from the system.
Since Xia Xin could not maintain a low profile, she tried to calm her mind and stop worrying about it. After all, there were many beautiful women in this world, and nothing wrong with it.
Xia Xin smiled helplessly. She found her current thoughts somewhat strange. Most people would hope to become more beautiful, but she wanted to be more ordinary.
Xia Xin estimated the time. At the current rate, she could meet the requirements for advancing her Beast Mastery to Level 2, Beast Tamer, next month. She wondered what changes this ability upgrade would bring.
"Miss, we've arrived." The taxi driver's voice interrupted Xia Xin's thoughts, and she paid by scanning the QR code before getting out of the car.
A colleague had resigned, so everyone gathered for a farewell dinner after work. As the next day was Saturday, they continued to a karaoke bar after dinner, and Xia Xin joined them.
After leaving the karaoke bar, it was already quite late. Xia Xin shared a car with a female colleague, and they arrived at the residential area.
Xia Xin checked her phone and saw that it was already past 10 p.m.
