Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

"With the root cause resolved, then this area..."

"It looks like it will take a lot of work to renovate it."

Luo Dongjun shook his head. The assassins' territory was either in the mountains, by the sea, or in the Gobi Desert.

In short, the area has much worse resources and environment compared to other places.

"Let's find a place to rest. Do you want to come back to Longhu Mountain with me?"

"The best way to nourish your spirit is in the mountains."

Luo Dongjun suggested that she could tell that Chi Hong was in very poor condition.

"It's alright, I'll eat some fruit to calm myself down." Chi Hong said, taking out a tree fruit from somewhere and taking a bite, which burst with juice!

A sweet aroma began to fill the air.

"Gulp~" Ye Rou swallowed hard, tugged at Chi Hong's arm, and asked, "Brother, can I have a bite?"

"Let's eat the big ones!" Chi Hong laughed and took out two more tree fruits, handing them to Ye Rou and Luo Dongjun respectively.

The three of them slowly left the place, and Luo Dongjun took out his phone to start typing a report.

Normally, reports are submitted through intermediaries. For example, if he were to carry out an assassination mission, Lu Yao would be the one to report to the organization.

"You don't have a middleman?" Chi Hong asked doubtfully.

"There was one originally," Luo Dongjun replied without even looking up. "But later, for some reason, that guy developed feelings for me. The way he looked at me was weird, so I killed him and dumped his body on the back of Longhu Mountain to feed the wild animals."

"Oh~"

A bead of cold sweat appeared on Chi Hong's forehead. Luo Dongjun seemed to be even more "ruthless" than he was.

The three chatted as they left the place that Chi Hong had overturned and returned to Lingchuan City.

"Bro, I heard you became a cop."

Inside a restaurant, Ye Rou held a large chicken leg, munching on it as she asked a question.

"Yes, and his official rank is quite high; he's a battalion commander," Chi Hong replied with a smile.

"Ha, you dog of a man, you wouldn't even be a dog if you were a cop, but you are, you're a dog!" Luo Dongjun sneered.

The four of them had been through life and death together, trusted each other, and could say anything to each other face to face without affecting their relationship.

"Oh....."

"I'm not a dog, I'm not a dog!"

Chi Hong said solemnly.

"Haha!" Ye Rou laughed loudly, then choked on a chicken bone, her face turning bright red.

"Holy crap! Boiled egg solo kills Crimson, chicken bone solo kills Rabbit?"

Chi Hong lifted Ye Rou up, and Luo Dongjun grabbed Ye Rou from behind with one hand on the back of her neck and slapped her back hard with the other. Ye Rou spat out a chicken bone.

"You fucking bastard!!"

"Rabbit Sister! Use the Aerial Moon Kick!! I'm going to destroy it completely!!"

Ye Rou was furious. The Moon Overlord Fighting Rabbit appeared instantly and raised its hand to throw off its shawl the moment it appeared.

"Garlic bird... garlic bird..." Chi Hong pressed down on the empty fighting rabbit.

"It's not easy to surge, it's not easy to surge..." Luo Dongjun held Ye Rou down.

Ye Rou sulked and sat back down. Luckily, they preferred to eat in private rooms; otherwise, they would have made a fool of themselves in the main hall...

Chi Hong's spirits had recovered slightly, but he was still fatigued. Just as he sat back down, his phone rang.

"Smart, brave, and strong, I really envy myself~~"

When I took it out, I saw that the contact name was Han Wu.

"Feed?" Chi Hong pressed the answer button and put it to his ear.

"Chi Hong! Something's happened! A ferocious beast has entered Dazhu District. Wu Dazhi is still in the building. This is definitely someone deliberately setting us up. They shut down the entire district's communication network. I just arrived in Jinling, Yuan Qingqing..."

"Yuan Qingqing fell into the sea; I suspect the chances of survival are slim..."

"Chi Hong, what's wrong?" Luo Dongjun frowned, she vaguely heard the words "ferocious beast".

"I understand. Now that you've arrived in Jinling, contact Lu Yao first. Judging from your voice, you seem to be seriously injured. I'll handle the rest."

"Send me the coordinates where Yuan Qingqing fell into the sea," Chi Hong said in a low voice before hanging up the phone.

He called Wu Dazhi again, but the phone indicated that it was out of service.

"My foundation is in trouble. If the root cause isn't sealed, how long will it take to recover?" Chi Hong asked Luo Dongjun.

"I'm using a secret method from Longhu Mountain to suppress it, and normally there's nothing wrong. If I don't suppress it, it will definitely hide within 24 hours, and it will reappear in less than three days."

Luo Dongjun's tone was serious; she had already realized that Chi Hong probably needed support.

This is a very rare occurrence. Since his debut, the assassin Crimson has never asked for reinforcements; he is usually the one providing reinforcements to others.

"Okay, once the Root Beasts start to occupy the area, many people will die, so this is also very important."

"Then, Ye Rou, come with me."

Chi Hong stood up, and immediately felt a wave of dizziness.

"Okay, big brother, I actually really want to take a trip to Tai Wan!" Ye Rou nodded. She seemed to have no concept of danger and always looked a bit dim-witted.

"Let's go now, we'll ride the dragon!" Chi Hong said, about to leave immediately, looking very anxious.

"Wait a minute!" Luo Dongjun called out to him, then took out a syringe from his bag, which contained a reddish-brown liquid.

"This is?"

Chi Hong took the vial of medicine. As far as he knew, the only person who could produce this thing was Shen Yuzhi.

"Mental recovery potion produced by Uncle Shen Yuzhi using ink."

"Because the materials used are very precious and the output is very low, the old Taoist once saved Ink's life during the time when ferocious beasts were rampaging on the border. Ink gave the old Taoist one in return for this favor."

"When I came out this time, the old Taoist gave me something he considered to be my life-saving item."

Luo Dongjun explained that, indeed, the most important thing for a beast tamer is mental strength. If they encounter a bloody battle and their mental strength is exhausted, having this thing can completely restore their condition to full, which is no different from going to an inn in an RPG game.

"Thank you." Chi Hong accepted it without any pretense. His condition was indeed not suitable for returning to the Greater Bay Area to sweep across the land, but with this, there would be basically no problem.

Right now, in the dimensional rift...

"Should we, like before, revert his physical condition back to what it was before?"

"Indeed, that would be much safer."

"He doesn't do this unless absolutely necessary. Every time he's exhausted from a battle, his mental strength grows stronger."

"I understand. According to human terms, if his mana bar limit just increases slightly, and then his own status time is reversed, isn't that the same as not increasing at all?"

"Correct answer."

"So save some chances to attack, wait until he uses that thing and recovers, then attack when he's not in good condition anymore..."

"So clever of you..."

"No, no, please praise my wit as being like that of the Father God..."

"I think I'll be able to get out soon."

"Shut up!!"
