Digimon: I really didn't want to be the Digimon Emperor!

The Sepikmon nodded, the patterns on its mask emitting a faint glow.

He paused for a moment, then said, "I have a bold idea, but I need everyone's cooperation."

“My plan… like this… like this…” Cheng Yuan began to explain his plan on the Digivice.

After listening, Kang Zhaodi scratched his head and said, "This... is too dangerous, and it's unknown whether it will even be useful."

Zhao Lu's stern voice came through: "That's right, class representative, please don't joke around with your life."

"I'm not joking," Cheng Yuan said seriously. "I'm confident. At worst, we'll have flying insect beasts to help us."

"Alright, Zhao Lu, it's settled then. Instructor Wang Lin and the PE teacher have no objections."

Cao Jin's inner monologue: I have a problem with that, but Instructor Wang Lin suddenly covered my mouth...

Wang Lin said, "You can give it a try, but you must be careful. If anything goes wrong, the flying insect beast will take you away immediately."

Wang Lin was full of confidence in the flying insect beast's ability to escape—if they couldn't beat it, couldn't they at least run away?

Cheng Yuan carefully observed the terrain, and a crazy plan gradually took shape: "Okay, let's deal with the savage beast's scouts first!"

Sepikmon, true to its Control-type Champion form, easily dispatched several Slugmon squads with the help of Puppetmon, Gearmon, Sandshrewmon, and Conquerormon Warrior. Just as they were preparing to retreat—

"Boom!" With the sound of a large tree falling, a colossal creature slowly approached. Although it was described as slow, each step it took covered several meters, its speed astonishing.

The Silverhorn Beast—over ten meters tall, even larger than Xu Xin's DarkGreymon. Its entire body is covered in heavy silver armor, and its enormous silver horn points straight to the sky. Most striking is its translucent abdominal armor, revealing a hollow interior, though its specific structure remains unclear.

"Found you!" The Silverhorn's voice boomed like thunder. "Minions, pack up the cubs and Digi-Eggs and take them with you! Monkey, stuff the gourd and brew wine!"

Everyone: "???"

How did monkey wine come about?!

Chapter 52 Jungle Ambush

Led by the Silverhorn, the Savage Beast Legion surged in like a tidal wave, causing the entire forest to tremble.

"Squeak squeak squeak!" The mischievous monkeys quickly climbed the tall pine trees, each carrying a handful of hard pine cones. These special pine trees were transplanted from elsewhere by the Sepiks over many years. When the pine cones were launched by slingshots, they would explode and spray out a large number of hard pine nuts, much like cluster bombs in human warfare.

Compared to the larger King Kong and Hanu tribes, the indigenous tribes are more adept at using external tools and implements.

"Pon! Pon! Pon!"

Pine cones were launched from slingshots, exploding like small grenades among the savage beasts. The pine cones rained down, and even with limited penetrating power, they were enough to injure or kill large numbers of the savage beasts. The beasts scattered in panic, and the scene became extremely chaotic.

"Hahaha!" Kang Zhao slapped his thigh and laughed so hard he almost fell over. "Look at those green-skinned dwarfs, don't they look like monkeys that have been stung by wasps?"

Zhao Lu pushed up her glasses: "To be precise, our allies are the monkeys..."

However, these pine cone bombs were like a tickle to the thick-skinned silver horned beast.

Although the first wave of attacks was fruitful, the number of pine cones fired was limited, and each one destroyed was one less available. Worse still, after suffering a loss, the savage beasts quickly learned their lesson. They either hid in cover, used wooden blocks and stone slabs as shields, or even used the still-living corpses of their companions as human shields.

The entire battle group maintained its tight formation and steadily advanced.

Even more worrying is that the wild beasts have begun to frantically cut down trees. As one large tree after another crashes to the ground, the monkey beasts gradually lose their advantage of being on high ground. Once forced to fight on the ground, these agile monkey beasts will be completely at the mercy of their predators.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Yuan said, "Instructor Wang Lin, according to the plan, have the flying insect beasts lure the silver-horned beasts away from the battlefield."

Wang Lin snapped her fingers lazily: "Okay, go ahead, flying insect beast."

The Flying Insect Beast flapped its wings and took flight, transforming into a streak of green light and disappearing into the bushes. It traversed groves and small battlefields, its agile and stealthy movements making it difficult for even many Digimon to detect its presence.

The flying insect beast had silently approached the silver-horned beast. This enormous creature was swinging its massive arms, uprooting trees that were blocking its path.

"Squeak—" The flying insect beast let out a sharp cry, gathering several energy balls on its wings and bombarding the silver-horned beast's groin.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The dazzling energy blast exploded beneath the silver-horned beast's crotch, causing no real damage but being extremely humiliating.

Although Digimon do not have a weakness in the genitals, the humiliation from this "precision strike" is off the charts.

As for why to attack this spot, Cheng Yuan said, "We need to use the most dazzling skills to hit its most shameful part, so that we can successfully provoke it. The angrier it is, the higher the success rate of the Sepikmon's skills."

"Awooo—!" The silver-horned beast roared deafeningly, its voice filled with anger and shame. "You despicable little insect! I'll crush you into dust!"

A gigantic hand, accompanied by a whistling sound, reached out to grab the flying insect beast. The flying insect beast nimbly flipped to the side, and the gleaming silver claw barely grazed its wing.

The flying insect beast nimbly darted through the air, each seemingly narrow evasion of the silver-horned beast's giant paw actually achieved through precise control of the distance. Cheng Yuan had already instructed them: the performance must be realistic, but not overdone—if they were actually caught, the whole act would be ruined.

The silver-horned beast, like a madman bitten by a mosquito, chased after the flying insect beast in a rage, completely disregarding how many of its own wild beasts it had crushed under its feet.

"Good stepping! Step on a few more!" Kang Zhaodi excitedly waved his fist.

The flying insect beast nimbly darted through the forest, occasionally turning back to taunt the silver-horned beast, beckoning with its index finger and saying, "Come on, big guy! Come on over here if you dare!"

Kang Zhaodi suddenly fell silent, scratching his head and saying, "I feel like I've been offended..."

The silver-horned beast was so angry it jumped up and down: "Shut up! When I catch you, I'll soak you in a wine gourd for a hundred years!"

Enraged, it unleashed the [Ghost Flame Bullet], a massive ball of orange-red flame roaring out, grazing the flying insect beast's wing, and exploding into a sea of ​​fire in the distant bushes.

The silver-horned beast was completely blinded by rage. It strode forward, charging like a runaway bull, utterly disregarding how many of its own wild beasts it had trampled. Its clenched teeth and furious expression made it look like a spoiled child determined to swat the wasps that had stung it.

The flying insect beast skillfully led it to a naturally formed canyon.

The terrain here is treacherous, with steep rock walls on both sides and a narrow, winding passage in the middle that can only accommodate three or four people abreast. The rock walls are covered with weathered cracks, and piles of rubble could collapse at any moment.

Cheng Yuan and his group had already ambushed behind the rocks on the high ground on both sides, and the pangolins and gear beasts on both sides were ready.

"Now!" Cheng Yuan gave the order.

"Earth-shattering claws!"

"Gear Saw!"

"Holy Light Bullet!"

"Boom!"

The entire mountainside collapsed with a crash, and countless boulders poured down like a torrential rain, instantly burying the Silverhorn Beast in a pile of rubble. Dust billowed into the sky, shrouding the entire canyon in a gray haze.

However, when the smoke and dust dissipated slightly, everyone gasped – the Silver Horned Beast's massive body still stood upright, though its gleaming silver armor was covered in dust and gravel.

Those boulders that would crush ordinary Digimon into mincemeat were nothing more than an uncomfortable "rock bath" for it.

The silver-horned beast was utterly aggrieved at this moment. First, it was sneakily attacked in the groin, and now it was covered in dust.

Thinking about how Sister Golden Horn would see him in this disheveled state when he got back, and how she would definitely use her signature move, [Thunderous Ghost Kick], to kick him into the lake for a bath—he hated bathing the most! That nasty water would seep into the gaps in his armor, making his whole body itchy!

"Roar—!!!" The furious roar shook the entire canyon. The silver-horned beast's eyes were bloodshot, and its entire body exuded a terrifying killing intent. It thrashed its body wildly, completely losing its mind.

"Chief of the Sepik Beast Clan, it's your turn!" Cheng Yuan turned and called out.

Sepikmon nodded, and the patterns on its mask began to emit a mysterious light: "[Soul Interference]!"

【Soul Interference】: Influence your opponent through soul interference, confuse your enemy, and cause them to make mistakes or fall into a state of confusion during battle.

A strange light enveloped the silver-horned beast, and its eyes immediately became confused.

"It worked!" Zhao Lu exclaimed in surprise.

Cheng Yuan asked one more question: "Instructor Wang Lin, can the flying insect beast directly deal with this monster?"

Wang Lin shook her head: "My flying insect beast excels at speed and surprise attacks, but lacks strong offensive capabilities. It's helpless against this kind of 'iron can'. Unless the leader is here!"

"Then let's stick to the original plan. I'll leave the rest to you and the flying insect beast."

Wang Lin nodded: "Remember, don't be reckless. If anything goes wrong, go with the flying insect beast immediately."

Cheng Yuan took a deep breath and pulled his goggles down over his head to prevent sand and dust from getting into his eyes and to ensure his visibility in the sandstorm.

Then, he solemnly took out an extravagantly designed helmet from his backpack—the hood woven from green leaves resembled a fluffy green wig, and the yellow wooden helmet, entwined with vines, had an exaggerated giant horn standing upright on it, with symmetrical curved small horns on both sides. The most amazing thing was the tattered cloth temporarily tied to his shoulder, which fluttered in the wind.

Everyone fell silent as they looked at the outrageously designed hat.

They had seen the video on Cheng Yuan's T-Rex machine, and this design was exactly like a cosplay of the Golden Horned Beast.

"Class representative..." Kang Zhao hesitated, then trailed off, "Your taste..."

"What do you know!" Cheng Yuan put on his helmet. "At this moment, please call me Golden Horned Cheng Yuan Beast!" Cheng Yuan felt that he had entered the state after shouting this name.

The puppy beast lay on his back, while the flying insect beast grabbed Cheng Yuan's arms and carried him toward the silver-horned beast in the dust.

The voice of the Sepikmon came from behind: "You only have 10 seconds! It will regain consciousness if it is attacked during that time!"

The flying insect beast and the "Golden Horned Source Beast" flew into the sandstorm.

Cheng Yuan saw the enormous shape of the Silver Horned Beast in the sandstorm.

At this moment, the Silverhorn was in a state of chaos. Hill-like rocks pressed down on its lower body, and it instinctively twisted its massive body. The silver armor rubbed against the rocks, making a piercing sound, and its giant arms swung wildly, stirring up waves of air around it.

Feeding the Silver Horned Beast

The silver-horned beast did not react.

Thinking of the Golden Horned Beast's rude nature, Cheng Yuan changed his tone: "Hey, you idiot little brother!"

The silver-horned beast turned its head in confusion: "Sister... Sister?"

Seeing that it had worked, Cheng Yuan continued, "Silly little brother, the enemy is too powerful. Quickly open the cockpit, let's combine into the Golden Silver Horned Beast and kill them together!"

"Sister..." It struggled and convulsed. In its chaotic state, it couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion. The gray shadow with giant horns in the sand made it think of its Golden Horn Sister, who, although fierce, was actually incredibly protective and loving towards it.

The silver-horned beast instinctively shuddered, and the hatch on its belly opened with a "whoosh," revealing its dark interior.

"Hurry, there's no time," Cheng Yuan said.

The flying insect beast swooped down and accurately threw Cheng Yuan into the cabin.

"Holy crap! Murder!" Cheng Yuan screamed as he fell into the darkness.

The little dog beast promptly deployed a sacred barrier, cushioning the impact for him.

The hatch slammed shut, and a faint fluorescent light illuminated the interior.

Cheng Yuan looked around and found that the cockpit was shockingly rudimentary—it only had a joystick controller and a transparent observation window.

"This design is so perfunctory..." Cheng Yuan complained, "There's not even a seat?"

He tentatively gripped the joystick and gently pushed it forward—

"Boom!" The silver-horned beast suddenly took a step forward, kicking up a large number of stones.

The silver-horned beast awoke instantly, clearly sensing the "foreign object" inside its body, and the entire cockpit suddenly began to shake violently.

Chapter 53 I will attack in the form of a silver-horned beast

"Oh no! It's awake!" Cheng Yuan frantically manipulated the joystick, and the Silver Horned Beast's massive body swayed and staggered like a drunken giant.

The entire cockpit shook violently, and Cheng Yuan felt as if he had been stuffed into a washing machine.

"This damn joystick is harder to control than an old-fashioned game console!" Cold sweat beaded on Cheng Yuan's forehead, his fingers turning white from gripping it so tightly. "The sensitivity is simply outrageous!"

"Woof! Cheng Yuan, watch out!" The little beast floated up and grabbed Cheng Yuan's collar with all four paws.

Cheng Yuan gritted his teeth and suddenly turned the joystick to the left—

"Boom!" The silver-horned beast staggered, its massive body crashing into a nearby hill, sending rocks flying. This attack left its once-shining silver armor covered in scratches.

"You bad guys, come out here..." The silver-horned beast's voice suddenly trembled with tears, like a child whose candy had been stolen, "I... I won't fight you anymore... Come out..."

Cheng Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Oh, so you're still a big kid who cries all the time?"

Cheng Yuan narrowed his eyes. The little dog was looking at him, guessing that he was probably up to something again...

"Little Silver Horn, don't cry. Tell your brother why you're fighting these naughty monkeys."

"Because...because Sister Golden Horn loves drinking the most..." the Silver Horned Beast sobbed, "Brewing wine with these monkeys has a fruity flavor and can also increase data volume..."

Cheng Yuan suddenly realized, "No wonder he was carrying such a big gourd!" He deliberately used a fierce tone to say, "That's all? I know more than that!"

The silver-horned beast fell silent.

Cheng Yuan grinned mischievously as he pushed the joystick: "You're not going to tell the truth, are you? Watch me show you the most dazzling ethnic style!"

The silver-horned beast's massive body suddenly began to writhe, its movements comically resembling those of a clumsy old woman.

The onlookers outside stared in disbelief at the scene—the majestic Silver Horned Beast was actually doing a square dance?

"I'll talk, I'll talk!" The silver-horned beast finally broke down.

"Tell me honestly, why did you capture those cubs?" Cheng Yuan's voice suddenly turned stern, and his fingers unconsciously increased the pressure on the joystick.
