Douluo: Subversion Begins with the Arrival of the Traveler

Chapter 96 Soul Beast Mount
"You're not sick, why are you talking nonsense?"

Sora grabbed Paimon while she wasn't paying attention and touched her forehead. The temperature was normal, so why did she start talking in her sleep?

"Damn, damn, damn, damn!"

Paimon finally broke free and flew directly behind Sora, sat on his neck and started pulling his hair.

"I was wrong, I'll compensate you..."

"How much compensation?"

"Pay one."

"no!"

"Then how much do you want, please come down and tell me first..."

"Uh~ five... no! Ten!"

"Okay, stop and do me a favor first."

Paimeng was a bit grumpy when he woke up, especially when he was woken up by a dream about eating delicious food. You can imagine what the result would be...

"Hum~"

Seeing that Kong had compromised, Paimeng did not attack again. Instead, he sat on Kong's neck with his head held high and chest puffed out like a victorious rooster, looking very proud.

"Can you help me understand what it wants to say?"

Sora asked Paimon, pointing at the trembling lion next to him.

"Eh? Who is this stinky lion?"

Paimon glanced at the Flame Maned Lion, and was so frightened that the latter wanted to bury his head in the ground, as if saying you can't see me.

I had originally thought this person's strength was the most powerful I had ever seen, but I hadn't expected this seemingly harmless flying creature to be able to ride on his neck...

It was indeed wrong, and now it finally knows who is the most difficult to mess with.

If you provoke this guy, he might try to reason with you, but if you provoke someone who is riding on his neck, he might die without knowing how he died...

"Yes, it seems to have something to say, but I don't understand it."

"Hey? How do you know I can understand it?"

"You're so capable, it's normal for you to understand."

Sora complimented Paimon appropriately, and the latter's mood immediately turned from cloudy to sunny.

"Hehe~ You think I'm awesome too, right~"

"You can say whatever you want to say now."

Kong didn't respond, but looked at the Flame Maned Lion and said.

"Roar……"

Upon hearing this, the Flame Mane Lion let out a tentative growl.

"..."

"..."

"What did it say?"

Seeing that the translator above him was doing nothing, Kong asked.

"What?" Paimon looked innocent.jpg

"Can't you understand what it says?"

“I didn’t say I understood…”

"...Weren't you laning against it before?"

"You mean when it roared at us?"

"Ah."

"I could tell it was ferocious and had bad intentions, so I scolded it."

"...Now can you see what it means?"

“I can’t tell~”

Paimon said this innocently, and then saw Kong actually take out a big pot from the void, and couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Traveler, why did you take out our cauldron? Are you going to cook something delicious?"

"Yeah, there's no point in keeping the emergency food. I'm planning on eating her."

"Hey? What? You can't eat me!"

Paimon immediately resisted, then seemed to think of something and hurried to make amends.

"You just want to understand what it's saying, right? That's pretty simple."

"Huh? Do you have any idea?"

"Give me our pot."

Paimeng stretched out his little hand and looked at Sora with a scornful look.

"Here~" Kong took out the Chen Ge pot from the void, and Paimeng drilled into the spout of the pot.

After a while, Paimon's figure appeared, and as her little hands opened, three objects that looked like Bluetooth headsets lay quietly in her hands.

"You can use this~"

Paimon said unhappily.

"..."

Isn’t this the void terminal of the Sumeru World Tree?

Kong looked at the light green void terminal headset and couldn't help but think of the little grass god who seemed weak but was actually stronger than anyone else and the great compassionate tree king who had dissipated his existence.

Let the world forget me...

In order to eliminate the disasters brought to the people by the forbidden knowledge, the first god of Xumi, the Great Compassion Tree King,
Choosing to sacrifice herself and dissipate her existence, everyone will forget her, including the little grass god who later became the god of Xumi...

Thinking about it now, I still feel a little uncomfortable.

Perhaps this is another meaning of traveling.

Sora shook his head, sorted out his thoughts, and said:

"We're not in Teyvat right now. Will this really work?"

"You can try it. You can create a temporary void terminal. I think it should be possible if it's just for conversation."

Paimon made a very wise analysis.

Sora took the Void Terminal, put one on his ear, and floated the other to the Flame Mane Lion's big ear.
As its body grew a lot bigger, it actually stuck to its ear.

Seeing this, Paimon also put one on his ear.

"Hello~ This is Paimon. Got it? Please reply. Over!"

"..."

The corner of Kong's mouth twitched as he glanced at Paimeng beside him. This guy was sometimes very smart, but sometimes so stupid.

"Big...you, good..."

"Ok?"

Just when Kong was questioning Paimeng's method, a childish voice came from the void terminal.

"Are you talking?"

Kong looked at the Flame Mane Lion, and the words in his heart were released through the void terminal.

"Yes... Sir..."

When the Flame Mane Lion saw that he could actually talk to this adult, he felt awe beyond words.

Although it has already developed intelligence, it has not yet reached the level of 100,000 years.
Therefore, it is not familiar with things that can be communicated suddenly, and can only try hard to say what it wants to express.

Is Paimon really a genius?
Sora glanced at the Flame Maned Lion, then turned to look at Paimon.

"What do you want to say to it?"

Paimon asked curiously when he saw Sora looking over.

Waking me up in the middle of the night, there must be something special going on, right?
"It looks like it needs some help..."

Kong looked at the soul beast with a puzzled tone.

"Yes, sir, I need help..."

"Huh? Really? Damn lion, you wanted to eat us before, but we didn't help you!"

Paimon crossed his arms and pretended to be very angry.

"Damn it... They drove me away. Please, sir, punish me..."

The Flame Maned Lion had a human-like expression, just looking at the huge lion head, but the sound it made was very childish. The combination of the two was a bit strange.

"Why are you being chased away? Was your territory taken away?"

Paimon was just talking, but if there was a real problem she would still think about it.

"Yes……"

The lion nodded repeatedly, and the wind whistled around him.

"So how do you want us to help you? Help you take back your territory?"

"No, please, sir, take me in..."

The Flame Maned Lion shook his head and expressed his wish.

"Eh? Traveler, does this stinky lion want us to adopt it? It's so big, how much food does it need to eat?"

Paimeng's first thought was that this soul beast was too big. It probably needed to eat a lot of food in one meal. How could he afford to feed it...

"I can find food by myself. Please, sir, take me in..."

Upon hearing this, the Flame Maned Lion immediately explained and pleaded anxiously.
