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

"Get on the spaceship first, and I'll pay you back once you're seated."

Chi Hong was in a hurry to get somewhere, so he immediately left with Shi Nu.

Without hesitation, Yuan Zhou followed. For some reason, he felt that Chi Hong couldn't lie to him and would definitely help him pay back the money.

As for banning gods and such, sorry, Yuan Zhou can only say that there's nothing to talk about with a deadbeat like you.

After all, I don't owe a ton of money!

On the top of the spaceship, several "wall-mounted" aliens all looked towards one spot, where a very cool-looking spaceship appeared in their line of sight. By the time they realized it was a spaceship, the small spaceship had already appeared next to the large spaceship.

They maintained an oddly constant speed; if you used the small spaceship as a reference point, you might even get the illusion that their ship hanging on the wall wasn't moving at all.

"Mr. Chi Hong, Mr. Yuan Zhou, please."

The woman with the stone was very polite, at least that's what she thought.

Chi Hong nodded and entered the new spaceship through the connecting passage. Shi Nu glanced at the two figures from behind, a look of disappointment appearing on her face.

The next second, accompanied by the crisp sound of a coin being flicked, the Stone Woman immediately stretched out her hands in surprise and caught a cosmic coin.

"Looking forward to seeing you again!!"

May you soar through the stars!

Shi Nu was all smiles as she waved at Chi Hong's retreating figure. You should know that she had been working as a waitress on Blue Star for about ten years, and her salary was only about 50 universe coins.

Therefore, one Cosmic Coin is already quite good.

Upon entering the spaceship, Chi Hong discovered that there were no other passengers on board, meaning that the two thousand-plus cosmic coins he spent essentially chartered the entire ship.

This small spaceship is equipped with three attendants: one male and two mechanical lifeforms. These two mechanical lifeforms can take on any appearance you desire.

"Awesome."

Chi Hong sincerely praised him, but he was a sophisticated person, someone who had transcended vulgar interests, so he had no interest in those things. As for Yuan Zhou, all Yuan Zhou could think about was Chi Hong helping him pay off his debts; nothing else even crossed his mind.

Meanwhile, not far from this rapidly moving small spaceship—though "not far" is a bit of an exaggeration, according to Earth's calculations, it's at least 200 kilometers away. But at the speed of this spaceship, 200 kilometers is practically the same as being right behind you.

"Are you sure?"

"That guy who just sold several valuable items through the Universe Bank's system."

"Is it really inside that spaceship?"

Inside the pitch-black spaceship, an alien covered in a coral-like substance asked another companion a question.

It was a cosmic being with an exceptionally large head, an exceptionally small body, and an extremely abstract appearance.

"I'm certain I intercepted this information, Ger. That guy has at least 3000 cosmic coins right now!"

"More likely, not all of the items for sale were actually sold; it's possible..."

"He still has some on him..."

Big Head's tone was filled with excitement; clearly, he was greedy for money.

"Nearly 3000 cosmic coins!?" Ger clenched his fist tightly and said in a low voice, "That's enough to offend the Universal Bank!!"

"German, you're joking again."

"The Cosmos Bank wouldn't care about such trivial matters."

"Compared to the World Bank, we're not even worth as much as insects. Who cares if an insect takes away a tiny, insignificant scrap of food?"

The big-headed guy looked very confident and wasn't afraid at all.

As long as they don't take action against the people at the Cosmic Bank, the Cosmic Bank won't bother with those two scumbags.

"Okay, move the spaceship closer!"

"I'll go straight in, kill that guy, and bring his body to our ship, then leave!"

"Normally, employees of the Cosmic Bank are just employees and wouldn't bother with something like this."

"Why choose this fast but unprotected little boat over a large, well-protected ship? You deserve your bad luck!"

A sinister smile appeared on Ger's face. He tapped his enormous head and began to control the spaceship. Within seconds, the spaceship appeared next to the spaceship carrying Chi Hong and the others.

"Um?"

"Another robbery?"

"It would be best to take them all out at once, so I wouldn't have to make this trip. Anyway, I've already made my money this time."

The alien piloting the spaceship immediately noticed the anomaly. Instead of accelerating away or avoiding this clearly burglarized vessel, he chose to slow down...

At this moment, Chi Hong was helping Yuan Zhou pay off his debts, and since he had no experience of riding in such a chartered spaceship, he did not notice anything unusual.

Under Yuan Zhou's expectant gaze, Chi Hong contacted the Universe Bank.

Almost instantly, Rotom's phone emitted light, and a desk appeared in front of Chi Hong's eyes. It was a phantom image that looked very real, similar to a video call on Earth.

"Hello, Mr. Chi Hong~"

"I am a customer service representative from the Universe Bank. You can see my public service information in the top left corner. How can I help you?"

A chubby alien phantom with a head shaped like a clove of garlic and wearing a bizarre uniform appeared.

"I want to help someone with some loans."

Chi Hong remained calm, after all, he was now a client.

"Oh, of course, Mr. Chi Hong. Please tell me the other party's account name." Garlic-headed man asked with a smile. It was a smile because there was a hint of laughter in his tone. Chi Hong did not yet have the ability to read expressions from a clove of garlic.

"Yuanzhou, Yuanzhou in the Great Wilderness Starfield."

"I think I owe you about 50."

Under Yuan Zhou's hopeful gaze, Chi Hong recited Yuan Zhou's personal information.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chi Hong, Mr. Yuan Zhou currently owes our bank 68."

The garlic-shaped head seemed to be looking at Chi Hong; he had just retrieved information and owed even more...

Anyone who's played the Golden Spatula game knows that compounding interest is an excellent way to develop your economy in Hextech. But if you're the one getting burned, it's not great at all; it's downright terrifying...

"We have already contacted our fellow races in Mr. Yuanzhou's star system."

"Explode your contacts?" Chi Hong was taken aback.

"We also applied to the Cosmic Tribunal to freeze all of Mr. Yuanzhou's accounts, and that has been done."

"Freeze?" Chi Hong was taken aback again.

"If you can help him pay it off in one go, he only needs to pay 72 today."

"Didn't it just cost 68?" Chi Hong was taken aback again.

"Oh, if you want to return the money on my behalf, there will be a service fee. I hope you understand."

"I understand your mother's feelings, neighbor!!"

"I'm not paying you back! Go ahead and send someone to destroy Yuan Zhou if you dare! Otherwise, I'm not going to return a single cosmic coin!!"

Enraged, Chi Hong cut off all contact.

"Go to hell!!"

He had just severed contact when the hatch suddenly opened, and a very burly alien rushed in and immediately started fighting!

"So fast?" Chi Hong was surprised.

"Damn it, the capital is really going to kill me!!" Yuan Zhou jumped up, his body sprouting countless dark tentacles.
