"It seems..."
"You guys must be wanting to become Pokémon..."
Lord Lucky Squirrel didn't know much about the grudges between Northern and Outer regions, but he could clearly see that the two honey badgers completely ignored him, started circling around, attempting to continue their attack on Tang Lian behind him.
Especially when Tang Lian mentioned the golden family's true heirs were not in the Outer regions.
The two honey badgers seemed to have been triggered, spewing out trash talk like crazy, noisy, hyperactive, and frantic.
However....
Honey badgers do seem to have this personality, tough-skinned and thick-fleshed while also acting shamelessly, even disliked by people and dogs in Africa.
"Later on, Mr. An will stuff you all into Chinese-style Poké Balls."
Lord Lucky Squirrel swept his gaze around, bent over, and though his form hadn't advanced an inch, the lush green grass below seemed to sense something, all the blades bowed down creating a path straight to the honey badgers.
A breeze swept across.
The honey badgers' pupils suddenly contracted, and their thoughts blanked out, frozen stiff in place.
"Snap——"
A figure suddenly appeared from the void, and Lord Lucky Squirrel, as if walking in mid-air, kicked heavily onto the honey badger's cheek, wind surged up, sending the 1.73-meter-tall honey badger spinning up into the air.
Standing in the void, Lord Lucky Squirrel turned his sharp gaze to the other honey badger.
In the instant his gaze switched, including the Black-skinned Rabbit, all spirit beasts and humans focused on the honey badger that was struck beneath its jaw by Lord Lucky Squirrel.
At the moment of the kick, Lord Lucky Squirrel unleashed an ascending gust over the lawn, an invisible airflow made visible by the green grass, winds chaotic and swirling.
The honey badger caught in the upward gust should have spun, thrown to the ground and knocked unconscious.
But because of the gust, an extremely bizarre scene unfolded.
The honey badger spun rapidly, shedding spines, resembling a yoyo suspended in air.
[From a spy in the Outer Region, attempting to infiltrate Northern during the Security Bureau's transition to stir chaos by stealing spirit beasts. Mr. Lucky Squirrel, magnanimous, abandoned rest time, fighting tirelessly against the foreign enemy in three hundred rounds.]
[Wish Power +1]
A flash of gold in Lord Lucky Squirrel's mind, he paid no heed to the message, body like an arrow, kicking the other honey badger in the chest, pressing it into the ground with force.
"+1! So long!"
Lord Lucky Squirrel roared, grabbing the honey badger by the neck and lifting it over his head, then twisting and hurling it forcefully toward the ground in front.
Under the thrust as powerful as a rocket launch, the honey badger's face contorted from air pressure, even its fur emitted a "creaking" sound, the entire badger stiffened, dug deep into the ground plowing several meters.
The honey badger was buried completely in the grass, only a pair of stiff black paws remained above.
A ravine formed in the prairie, grass flying everywhere.
"Rabbit! Come face me one-on-one!"
Having just completed his warm-up, Lord Lucky Squirrel glared with anger toward the Black-skinned Rabbit, surrounding grass shot in all directions as he swung around.
Lord Lucky Squirrel possessed no supernatural powers, only an extremely robust and dominant physique.
His every move could disturb the surrounding air, creating chaotic currents.
"Chirp chirp chirp——"
As Lord Lucky Squirrel spun and stepped forth, the Black-skinned Rabbit's fur stood on end, its tail that should have curled shrunk and unfurled like a tape measure, measuring twenty centimeters in length, half of its body size.
"Gulp——"
Frightened, the Black-skinned Rabbit let out a "gulp," eyes flipping, body stiffened like iron, toppling to its left, no longer moving.
"Bleat——"
The Daurian Sheep buried by the Black-skinned Rabbit inhaled sharply, forming a basic concept of "General Engineer" in mind, simply being scared into stress response by sheer presence.
The Black-skinned Rabbit overwhelmed with fear, all muscles disrupted.
Only its heart muscles remained unaffected.
Had its heart failed, Lord Lucky Squirrel would have set a new record, glaring a spirit beast to death.
"......"
Tall and strong, with broad shoulders and a sturdy back, Tang Lian stared in a daze at the spinning, falling honey badger and the one half-buried in soil, muttering, "Lord Lucky Squirrel, what do you mean by Chinese-style Poké Balls? Should I go prepare them?"
While speaking, he glanced at the previously arrogant Black-skinned Rabbit.
The rabbit's mouth was now foaming.
"How come... they're all down?"
"Mr. An didn't even exert himself! I didn't even get to use the wooden pillar I brought over earlier..."
Lord Lucky Squirrel's exhilaration slowly turned to confusion, looking at Tang Lian with disbelief, big eyes staring back at each other.
"Stuff them in chicken cages and submerge them!"
After sitting in a car for a whole day, his rear numb and belly nearly chafed, Lord Lucky Squirrel, uninterested and waving his hand, signaled the Daurian Sheep to come over.
"Bleat..."
Trotting over, the Daurian Sheep instinctively pulled out its neck pouch, retrieving a broken, wrinkled hand-rolled cigarette, handing it to Lord Lucky Squirrel's mouth, striking a match to light it.
This time, Lord Lucky Squirrel didn't refuse, puffed vigorously to redden the cigarette end, sticking it into the honey badgers' rear ends, causing them to wiggle their paws.
"???"
Seeing this, Tang Lian and the Daurian Sheep visibly displayed shock, inhaling sharply, seemingly frightened by Lord Lucky Squirrel's actions.
Indeed... as the records describe, quite ruthless and formidable old chap!
"Don't misunderstand...."
After scorching the honey badgers' butts, Lord Lucky Squirrel seemed to notice their horror, waved his hand and said:
"Those old pirates making videos to slander, claiming our Xia Country's GDP draws from burning alien rears with cigarette ends. As an honest fox, Mr. An can't scorch alien rear ends yet, but foreign butts I can manage."
"I want to see if burning with cigarette ends brings a windfall to bank balance."
"However, those old pirates are obviously lying, my cigarette end didn't produce any gold coins." There was a hint of jest in Lord Lucky Squirrel's words.
Whether the fox is honest is another matter.
He clearly holds grudges.
"......" Both Tang Lian and the Daurian Sheep were speechless.
"Let's not talk about nonsense, let's get down to business."
Ansheng earnestly extinguished the cigarette butt, white fluffy fox tail swaying, perched on the ground, he turned to Tang Lian and said: "Although... Mr. An came to Botou because Tang You invited me for sightseeing."
"But I brought all the equipment, people included, and tonight I can airlift one more Guardian Level spirit beast."
"So tell me! Where are the defiant, troublesome, bouncing beasts, I'll go uproot their whole family."
"This international superstar, Mr. An will definitely become!"
Ansheng glanced at the Black-skinned Rabbit. The Daurian Sheep's mouth had described it viciously, but when tested, it showed no Wish Power.
Only the two honey badgers exploded with 1 point of Wish Power each.
