Lucario cast a glance at Chi Hong, seemingly confirming the next command: whether or not to take out that human.
As an Alpha Pokémon, chasing humans down and beating them up was practically a daily routine before being captured.
If it hadn’t been beaten into submission by Chi Hong in the game and captured to join his team, given its Alpha Pokémon personality, that man would have been sent flying up to the heavens long ago.
“Well…
since things have come to this, I’ve suffered a crushing defeat.”
“I won’t concern myself with that guy Cai’s matters anymore.
How about we stop here?”
The man was terrified now.
Forcing an awkward smile onto his face, he didn’t even dare to recall his pet beasts into his pet beast space.
Chi Hong didn’t answer him.
Instead, he glanced at the nearby bushes and bent down to pick up his jacket from the ground.
In the distance, police sirens could be heard.
Chi Hong unhurriedly put on his jacket.
He wanted to see what tier of pet beasts these law enforcers carried, and simultaneously make the name ‘Red’ a bit more renowned.
At this moment, the young couple hiding behind the bushes were practically pissing their pants!
A battle between A-Rank Beast Tamers was far too perilous.
As a newbie who could barely be considered a C-Rank, just hiding on the sidelines had left him so terrified that his entire body was tense.
Chi Hong made no move, and that man didn’t dare to either; he was terrified!
There were disparities even among A-Ranks.
For a top-tier A-Rank to instantly kill an average A-Rank like him was far too simple.
In reality, all Beast Tamers who reached the A-Rank knew clearly that only upon entering the A-Rank could one truly be considered to have stepped into the Beast Tamer circle in the truest sense.
After a short while, only when two law enforcement vehicles pulled up nearby did the man let out a long sigh of relief.
Law enforcement had arrived, so he was safe.
Going to prison was vastly better than being killed.
Even assassins generally wouldn’t dare to make a move directly in front of law enforcement; that was equivalent to challenging their authority and would definitely earn them special attention!
Meng Yi was in very low spirits today.
However, out of his sense of responsibility and identity as the captain of Jinling’s 5th Law Enforcement Squad, he still personally led his team out after receiving the report.
The primary scene was highly chaotic, and casualties had already occurred.
However, the person who died wasn’t exactly a good person.
He was a thoroughgoing piece of scum, a menace to society.
When Meng Yi saw the corpse, he nearly couldn’t hold back from uttering the words “good riddance.”
Since he was killed by someone, all his connections, his lawyers, and the fall guys willing to take the blame for him were rendered completely useless.
Dead meant dead.
But as a law enforcer, he couldn’t say those words out loud; otherwise, it might become leverage for others to attack him down the line.
The culprit wasn’t found at the scene, but traces left by them were present.
According to eyewitnesses at the scene, Cai Baocai’s top bodyguard, an A-Rank Beast Tamer, had given chase.
Glancing at the several law enforcers accompanying him, Meng Yi sighed.
The ones he brought this time were all rookies.
He had originally thought it wouldn’t be a big deal; these rookies only possessed B-Rank strength.
Rushing in recklessly like this, if a battle broke out, he would have absolutely no way to look after them.
In squads like his, only the squad captains possessed A-Rank strength.
Although law enforcement mobilized swiftly, making a temporary call for backup meant wasting time waiting for them.
So, he merely strolled around the vicinity, not recklessly approaching the park where Chi Hong was fighting.
This was why Chi Hong had heard the sirens a long time ago but had yet to see any law enforcers.
A path in the park had been completely destroyed, and the area was riddled with craters.
Beast Tamers battled solely to win.
It wasn’t that the more destruction caused to the surroundings, the more formidable one was.
One couldn’t judge a target’s combat prowess based solely on the degree of environmental destruction.
This was Meng Yi’s experience.
“Hey, Captain Meng, looks like the match is decided.
That Cai Baocai’s bodyguard lost.”
“If we arrived a step later, he’d probably be dead.”
“He has a daughter, right?
The intel says that because Cai Baocai paid to save his daughter, he chose to act as Cai Baocai’s bodyguard.”
A tall, short-haired woman pushed the car door open and stepped out.
She looked valiant and heroic, the uniform perfectly accentuating her excellent figure.
“Yeah.” Meng Yi nodded, then frowned as he looked toward the other side.
Chi Hong, bundled up tightly, and an unfamiliar pet beast with red-glowing eyes.
This pet beast looked extremely dangerous and didn’t seem to have exited its combat state yet, which meant it could violently attack someone at any moment!
“Please return with us for an investigation.
Keep in mind…
don’t make any unnecessary movements.” Another younger law enforcer raised his hand and summoned his pet beast.
It was a domineering-looking lion.
This lion sported a pair of wings, wore a police uniform, and had a sharp, single horn on its forehead.
This was precisely the symbol of law enforcement, the exclusive pet beast for captain-level officers in the organization.
The Judgment Horned Lion.
In terms of aptitude, a Judgment Horned Lion only needed to grow normally to achieve A-Rank strength.
However, due to the systematic training provided by the law enforcement organization, the strength of a Judgment Horned Lion was considerably higher than that of an average A-Rank pet beast.
“Hurry up and take me away!”
“That person is a murderer!
He’s a member of the assassin organization!”
The man, who was on the verge of despair, had hope for survival reignite on his face.
Although he had done plenty of heinous things following Cai Baocai over the years, he had money!
Even if he ended up being sentenced to over a decade in prison, it was still better than dying right now!
“Assassin organization?”
The young law enforcer’s expression instantly turned serious.
Beside him, Meng Yi and the female law enforcer also summoned their pet beasts. Find the original chapter at g.com.
Three Judgment Horned Lions growled lowly as they stepped forward.
According to law enforcement regulations, barring a major incident with mass casualties, the priority of apprehending assassins superseded any other case.
“You come over first.
Once we take down that Beast Tamer suspected of being an assassin, you’ll all undergo investigation together.”
Meng Yi said in a deep voice.
At this moment, the young couple in the bushes didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly.
Although law enforcement was just nearby, that guy was very likely an assassin!
This was far too terrifying!
“What the hell?
How did that guy Red fall into the hands of law enforcement?
I can’t help out with this, I need to go back and look after the kids.”
A low voice emanated from behind the young couple, scaring the two of them into screaming and running out of the bushes.
“Shit!”
Han Wu cursed angrily.
Pulling on his mask, he leaped out of the bushes and shouted, “Red!
Run, quickly!”
“Red?”
“Take both of them down!”
Meng Yi waved his hand, and the three Judgment Horned Lions mobilized together.
“Lucario, deal with him, then get me out of here.”
“Limit Break, use Dark Pulse.” Chi Hong narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke.
The man was getting closer and closer to Meng Yi’s trio, a look of joy beginning to appear on his face.
“I survived!”
The instant this thought appeared, a pitch-black beam pierced through his chest.
By the time he registered the pain, the beam had already vanished.
He barely even felt any pain, because his internal organs had been instantly destroyed by that brutal black energy.
“So fast!
He’s definitely an assassin!
We can’t let him escape!” Meng Yi roared, paling in fright.
“Psychic!”
Looking at the three Judgment Horned Lions closing in, Chi Hong spoke softly.
A red glint flashed in Lucario’s eyes, and the three Judgment Horned Lions collapsed into a heap as if their bodies had lost control.
Of course, this was merely the element of surprise and didn’t deal much damage.
Subsequently, Lucario hoisted Chi Hong over its shoulder.
Under the shocked gazes of the three law enforcers, it leaped high into the air and swiftly vanished from their line of sight.
“Call the station and lock down this area!”
“Hurry!”
“I’ll go after that Red!” Meng Yi roared.
He then leaped onto the back of his Judgment Horned Lion and began to pursue…
Red!
