What do you mean I've traveled to worlds geared towards children?

"Hmph, none of your business."

The dark warrior responded coldly, raising her left hand and, amidst mechanical sounds, conjuring a strangely shaped hand cannon on her left arm.

At the tip of the hand cannon, invisible wave energy gathered, and in less than a second, the gathered wave energy was suddenly shot out!

boom! !

The shock shells released by the hand cannon flew out.

Ron had no intention of fighting him head-on. He leaned back and took several steps backward to create distance between himself and the dark warrior.

But at the same time, he also raised his hand, displaying the fantasy crystal he had just taken from the dark warrior:

"You can leave, but you can't take your things with you."

"!?"

The dark warrior abruptly turned his head to look at his right hand.

The fantasy crystal that had just been in her hand had now turned into a cold, hard block of ice, and she hadn't felt anything at all before!

How did they manage to do that?

The Dark Warrior turned to look at Ron, the expression on his visor now displaying anger.

She looked very angry.

But for Ron, it was nothing more than impotent rage.

"You're not convinced? Then...want to fight?"

Ron stood side by side with An Yan, keeping a close eye on the dark warrior. If the dark warrior made any unusual move, he would join the others in a 'righteous brawl'!

Perhaps under the rule of 'darkening makes you three times stronger,' dark warriors are very strong.

But no matter what, she probably couldn't beat four people ganging up on her.

What's more, Grandpa Mouse is coming soon.

"...Let's go."

As it turned out, the Dark Warrior was quite rational. A fierce expression appeared on her visor, as if she were glaring at Ron. Then, the black and purple vortex behind her expanded instantly, enveloping her, the mimic bat, and Tiger Master.

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing that the black-clad warrior was about to leave, An Yan quickly stepped forward and tried to call out to him:

"You haven't answered my question yet! Why are you helping the Dark Beasts! Why... why are you hostile to us!"

"..."

The dark warrior did not answer; her gaze was not even on An Yan, but fixed on Ron.

Even as her figure disappeared into the vortex, his gaze remained fixed on her.

Ron: "..."

Seriously? So petty? All I did was steal the Fantasy Crystal from you, is there any need to be so fixated on it?

Besides, this wasn't originally yours...

Ron scratched his head, thinking to himself that the Dark Warrior was a bit stingy.

However, once it was confirmed that the Dark Warrior had indeed left, and with Grandpa Mouse leading the Working Mouse and the Drilling Mole Rats rushing over, Ron finally relaxed.

A flash of light, and he returned to his original form.

Not only him, but An Yan and his group also returned to their original appearance.

The continuous battles had pushed everyone's physical strength to the limit. If they had actually fought back just now, the outcome would have been uncertain.

It's all for the best that the Dark Warrior can leave.

Chapter 42 Who's the male mom?!

This battle against the Dark Legion can barely be considered a victory.

They fought off Master Tiger and the unknown dark warriors who came to their aid. The Fantasy Crystal, which was almost stolen, was eventually retrieved by Ron.

Apart from everyone being exhausted to the limit, there were almost no losses.

Under the influence of the Fantasy Crystal, the four-eyed monster cats that had been corrupted by darkness returned to normal. Without Tiger Master's leadership, they immediately scattered and fled. Grandpa Rat and the others no longer needed to worry about the four-eyed monster cats continuing to attack the burrowing mole's territory.

Everything is moving in a positive direction, and it's a very traditional scene where the episode ends with the dumpling-making segment.

But... An Yan's mindset wasn't very good.

He remained silent after the Dark Warrior left, as if he were pondering something.

Ron could tell at a glance that this guy was thinking about why that mysterious fifth Phantom Beast Warrior was helping the Dark Phantom Beast.

Ron is currently unsure about this issue and therefore cannot provide a perfect answer.

However, even without Ron's guidance, given An Yan's personality and the experiences of a typical shonen manga protagonist, An Yan will eventually figure things out on his own and bring that dark warrior back to the main group.

Of course, the idea of ​​becoming weaker after being redeemed is a classic element that can't be ignored in this type of anime, but that's something for later, and Ron doesn't need to think about that for now.

The mythical beast warriors rested for a day at Grandpa Rat's place before deciding to continue their journey.

Before leaving, Grandpa Rat gifted the Mythical Beast Crystals to the Mythical Beast Warriors.

"Take this crystal." Grandpa Rat handed the Magical Beast Crystal to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen looked at the crystal in his hand, slightly bewildered:

"Huh? But isn't this the thing that you painstakingly made, Grandpa Mouse?"

Grandpa Mouse stroked his whiskers and smiled, saying, "This thing isn't very useful to me. Giving it to you will give you a better chance of saving this continent."

Activating the Fantasy Crystal requires the power of the Fantasy Beast Warrior.

Grandpa Rat can barely use it, but he certainly can't purify an entire area at once like the Beast Warrior.

Furthermore, since Grandpa Rat cannot venture to other places to save other places shrouded in darkness, entrusting the crystal to the Phantom Beast Warrior is the most appropriate course of action.

However, Grandpa Mouse wasn't without his own requirements.

He said to the Phantom Beast Warriors, "However, while this Phantom Beast Crystal is very effective in dispelling darkness, it is not very effective against Phantom Beasts that are themselves dark."

"If you want to truly banish the darkness, you'll probably have to go to the magic zone."

"The Magic Zone?"

A glint flashed in Ron's eyes, and he looked up at Grandpa Rat and asked, "The Magic Zone can help us strengthen our Fantasy Crystals?"

"Of course, that is the source of all magic on the Beast Continent. If it were them, they might be able to create more and stronger fantasy crystals."

Grandpa Mouse stroked his whiskers and said.

The Fantasy Beast Continent is divided into four regions.

The area where everyone is now is the Endless Forest in the south. Most of the magical beasts here are plant and animal species. Even if there are magical beasts that can use magic or other things, they are mostly still animals.

This includes the seemingly mechanical dark warrior, and the phantom beast fused with her, which is also an animal species called 'Mechanical Rabbit'.

While many animal-type magical beasts possess magic, the areas known as 'Magic Zones' are where magical magical beasts are most abundant.

There are many magical beasts, and therefore many kinds of magic. Perhaps in the magical realm, magical beasts have already created something similar to the magic crystal, but they just haven't found a suitable person to use it.

Therefore, if the Beast Warriors truly want to save this world, they will definitely need to make a trip to the Magic Zone and the Technological Kingdom.

After talking with Grandpa Rat, the Phantom Beast Warriors embarked on their journey once again.

During this time, Ron also found an opportunity to leave the path of the phantom beasts and return to reality.

The fourth and fifth Phantom Beast Warriors have already appeared, and he needs to go back to see what this storyline is like from an 'observer' perspective.

And, find out the purpose and identity of the fifth Phantom Beast Warrior.

……

"System, play 'Fantasy Beast Warrior'."

Back in reality, Ron didn't open his eyes. Instead, he lay on the bed and easily opened the system interface to review the plot of "Fantasy Beast Warrior".

Ron's experience in the Beast Continent corresponds to episodes five and six of "Beast Warriors".

There's not much to say about the plot of episode 5. Everyone falls underground, meets Grandpa Rat, and then An Yan and Chen Xiaolian confront Master Tiger. Finally, Ron comes to their aid.

The entire second half of episode five consists of fight scenes, including the scene where Chen Xiaolian is almost injured and Jiang Chen comes to her aid.

The fifth episode did not mention Jiang Chen's emotional journey; instead, it was placed in the sixth episode.

The sixth episode begins with Jiang Chen's story.

The main description is his thoughts when he saw the small, burrowing moles bravely confront a powerful enemy instead of fleeing.

Interspersed throughout are his memories of the present, and finally, under the protection of Grandpa Rat, he awakens, successfully transforms, and becomes a mythical beast warrior.

This part of the story is a fairly standard awakening plot, and Ron makes no comment on it.

On the contrary, Ron saw the children who bullied Jiang Chen in Jiang Chen's memory.

"Very well, so you've learned to bully others at such a young age instead of studying properly, huh? You'd better pray that there's no real-world storyline for the Mythical Beast Warriors, or I'll show you what 'the will of the overlord' really means!"

Ron squinted at the children, making a decision in his mind.
