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

"Ahead lies Captain Chi Hong!"

As a dragon rider, He Rui is truly an exceptional person!

However, the fact that she and Shi Sanjie, that lazy bum, had to work together to deal with Chi Hong fully demonstrates how dangerous Chi Hong is.

"it's me."

Chi Hong stood behind Xu Xiaobao and calmly spoke, without even asking who the other person was.

"It's actually a Dragon Rider! I, Xu Xiaobao, have only fought Dragon Riders a handful of times. Today is a perfect opportunity to relive that experience!"

"Enough with the chit-chat!"

"If you want to get close to my older brother, you'll have to spar with me first."

Xu Xiaobao stood with his hands on his hips, looking incredibly arrogant, completely disregarding He Rui.

Given the captain's authority, abilities, and network of connections, figuring out the details of Chi Hong and Xu Xiaobao would be incredibly easy!

However, He Rui did not do that; she had her own way of handling tasks.

"Hmm?" Chi Hong suddenly turned his head to the north, and Xu Xiaobao also looked over. There, another aura, no less powerful than the Dragon Tamer in front of them, was rapidly approaching!

"Gentlemen, please listen to me!!!"

"Don't do it!!!"

Shi Sanjie hadn't arrived yet, but his voice came first.

Riding her chameleon, she charged with extraordinary momentum to the middle of He Rui and Chi Hong's sides, stretching out her hands on the left and right, as if trying to mediate the fight.

"What does this mean?" Chi Hong frowned. This was a bit beyond his expectations, and he didn't like this feeling.

"I, Xu Xiaobao, have roamed the martial world for many years, and I've never seen things develop like this before," Xu Xiaobao said, nodding in agreement.

"I am Shi Sanjie, the captain of the Law Enforcement Headquarters!"

"But in person, Captain Chi Hong?"

Shi Sanjie, riding on the chameleon, clasped his hands in a fist salute towards Chi Hong and asked.

"It's me..." Chi Hong said helplessly. Only Xu Xiaobao liked to make this fist-and-palm gesture. Then he turned around and, sure enough, Xu Xiaobao had already subconsciously made the fist-and-palm gesture.

"Okay then!"

"I'll be frank, headquarters ordered me and her to take you down and bring you back to headquarters," Shi Sanjie said, pointing at He Rui.

"Then what are you waiting for?"

"Are you trying to disobey orders? Make your move!"

"We brothers will make sure you suffer a terrible death!"

Chi Hong nodded and said seriously.

Hehe~~~

"Captain Chi Hong, what are you saying?"

"Everyone's here to work, why are you risking your life for no reason!"

"I have no grudges against you in the past or present, so there's really no need for this."

Shi Sanjie grinned and said it so openly and frankly in front of He Rui!

He Rui's lips twitched, and she thought to herself, "No wonder he's the most notorious slacker in headquarters!"

"You just said that so smoothly to my face?"

"It seems like tattling doesn't really do any good..."

Shi Sanjie demands overtime pay even for a minute of overtime work. Rumor has it that when she catches illegal individuals, a tiny portion of their family property is confiscated, while the rest is embezzled by her through various means!

As a captain with terrifying SS-level strength, headquarters turned a blind eye to these actions as long as they weren't too outrageous.

As for this "degree," it's hard to judge. As an SS-rank beast tamer, many things simply don't apply to her...

"You mean...."

"Are you here... just to go through the motions?"

Chi Hong felt somewhat incredulous that the top combat force of the law enforcement organization would be so perfunctory in carrying out its mission?

It's clear they completely disregarded their leader's words!

"What else?"

Shi Sanjie asked with a look of astonishment, "How much money does he offer me to risk my life for him?"

"Ferocious beasts roam the outside world, and forbidden zones frequently shroud the city. Someone with my fighting ability being sent to mess with our own people? I'd have to be crazy to fight you to the death!"

"What if my hometown is invaded by ferocious beasts, and the resistance is only missing one person—me—but I'm injured fighting you and can't provide support? Where can I complain to them?"

"Is it even worth trying to reason with that ridiculous notion of 'dedication to one's job'?"

"No, it's not as simple as just being injured," Xu Xiaobao corrected. "It's being beaten to death, beaten to death alive!"

"Hehe~"

"That kid is so funny."

"But there are appropriate times for jokes, otherwise I'll give you some good juice later."

Shi Sanjie's lips twitched. A little brat, acting so arrogant towards him?

If she wore this out, where would she put the face of the great demon of Yanjing?

"Does that person over there think the same way?" Chi Hong asked He Rui.

He has now confirmed one thing: headquarters has very little control over the captains at the top.

But it makes sense. An SS-level beast tamer is already above other beast tamers. You should be grateful if he doesn't cause trouble.

Once these beast tamers go berserk, they can destroy an entire city in no time.

"........."

He Rui chose to remain silent. She had originally planned to use a couple of skills randomly and then run away.

She had already thought of how to write her report upon returning: "This thief is very strong; we must not act rashly." That would be enough!

Nobody will bother her!

However, this "playing it off" move directly disrupted her rhythm. What if Chi Hong thought, "Everyone else isn't fighting, but you are? Then I'll have a proper fight with you."

That would be a disaster!

It's a waste of time and energy; all your efforts are for nothing!

At her level of strength, the rewards from headquarters held almost no appeal for her.

"Well then, gentlemen, farewell!"

Seeing her silence, Chi Hong took it as a tacit agreement. So Xu Xiaobao manipulated the magic carpet and started moving. After they had gone far away, He Rui and Shi Sanjie did not make any move.

Just then, Shi Sanjie's phone rang, and she took out her phone to answer it.

"What??"

"That damn assassin, Chuan Hai, ran off to the Central Plains?"

"What was he doing in my hometown?"

"Damn it, I'm going to shove him down in the hot and sour soup and make him die, die, die!!!"

Shi Sanjie cursed loudly, then angrily crushed his phone in his hand.

"I'm leaving now. Remember to write the report and include me in it so I don't have to write it myself and we can avoid duplication of work."

"Rui-jie, see you later!!"

Shi Sanjie patted the big head of the Punishing Horned Lion, and the Punishing Horned Lion suddenly flapped its wings and sped off like a shooting star towards the middle and far distance!

He Rui's face was ashen; she clutched her chin, feeling a sharp pain in her head...

Headquarters of Law Enforcement.

"What? Shi Sanjie and He Rui didn't make a move?"

"After standing there facing off against Chi Hong for several minutes, Chi Hong simply swaggered past the two SS-level beast tamers???"

The gaunt old man, his face filled with shock, loudly confirmed with the law enforcement officer in front of him.

"Yes...that's right."

"Captain Shi Sanjie is used to slacking off, and you didn't even mention giving her travel allowance..."

"But Captain He Rui didn't make a move either, which I don't understand..."

The law enforcement officer also looked puzzled.

The elderly salesman plopped back into his chair, frowning and remaining silent. The law enforcement officer who had come to report the incident wisely made his escape.

He sat there for about ten minutes when He Rui called him.

"What exactly is going on?"

"You two SS-rank beast tamers just let him go without lifting a finger?"

"Give me a reasonable explanation!!"

The gaunt old man suppressed his anger and asked.

"this...."

"Let me tell you something..."

"No, let me tell you..."

"actually....."

"This Chi Hong..."

"Let me think..."

Then came a moment of silence...

Just as the gaunt old man was about to lose his temper and start lashing out, He Rui's voice came again.

"Enter the dream!"

"Yes! That Chi Hong is treacherous and cunning. The intelligence was wrong. He's not just a simple dragon rider. He pulled me and Shi Sanjie into a dream. We've rarely encountered such a powerful mental attack. We weren't paying attention and were pulled into the dream!"

"On the surface, only a few minutes had passed, but in reality, it took us a tremendous amount of effort and several years to escape this dream!!"

The gaunt old man: "........."

"Thanks for your hard work......"

He gritted his teeth and uttered those three words...
