After Chao Xia left, Chi Hong began to study his Pokémon game system.
It was exactly the same as in the game; Poké Balls, items, and Berries were all readily available.
It was just that, besides Mightyena, there wasn’t a single one he could use; they were all grayed out.
“Mightyena!
Come out and eat!” Chi Hong took out the red and white Poké Ball and released Mightyena.
This was not the game world; Pokémon truly needed to eat and rest.
After coming out, Mightyena barked at Chi Hong, then leisurely pushed the door open with its front paws and walked outside the warehouse.
Chi Hong also followed it out.
Mightyena looked around, then found a large tree, lifted a hind leg, and started pissing!
“Uh…
Of course, Pokémon are living creatures too, so they also need to excrete…
Then Ghost-types and…
a Creator God like Arceus shouldn’t need to, right?”
Thinking up to this point, an image of Arceus lifting its hind leg to piss uncontrollably popped into Chi Hong’s mind.
“Ew~~” He felt a chill and glanced at his PC Box; Arceus was quietly resting inside his Pokémon Box.
Not only did he have a complete Pokédex, he even had every single Pokémon.
Naturally, to complete the Pokédex so quickly, a certain mysterious power was essential.
For example…
Master Balls that broke past the quantity limit to reach 9,999, 9,999 Exp.
Candies, and the like…
They were innumerable!
“Awoo~” Mightyena let out a soft howl at Chi Hong, then walked up to him and affectionately nuzzled him with its large head.
“Let’s go eat!
As long as I have a bite to eat, you’ll have a bite too!” Chi Hong patted the dog’s head and led Mightyena back inside the warehouse, where he directly cooked up a massive pot of instant noodles!
One person and one dog ate heartily!
Of course, Mightyena’s appetite was much larger than Chi Hong’s.
“How was it!” Having finished several large packs of instant noodles between the two of them, Chi Hong crossed his arms and looked at Mightyena as he asked.
“Awooo!
Woof woof woof!!” Mightyena frantically wagged its tail, spinning around Chi Hong non-stop.
Pokémon were pretty much like this; as long as their trainer treated them well, they would be extremely excited even if they were just eating instant noodles.
Afterward, Chi Hong grabbed Mightyena and gave it a thorough, satisfying petting from head to tail, before taking it for a stroll nearby.
Because it was an abandoned warehouse, it was relatively remote, and wild pet beasts could be seen moving about on the roadside.
Of course, they were strictly of the early-route tier, no different from the stray dogs and stray cats of his past life.
Pet beasts of this level couldn’t be used for battling because they were virtually incapable of learning skills.
Naturally, this wasn’t an issue for Chi Hong; pulling out a Technical Machine would do the trick, it was just that he couldn’t pull one out right now.
Moreover, he currently had neither the money nor the energy to nurture a pet beast.
After all, he still had over a thousand Pokémon waiting for him to favor them.
Pokémon would absolutely never betray him, and he completely understood the characteristics and battling styles of every single one.
There was absolutely no need for him to seek something further away when he had it right here by cultivating some pet beast.
“Alright, it’s getting late.
Time to go back and rest. Find the original chapter at g.com.
By the way, let’s sleep together tonight!
It’s getting a bit cold, so I intend to use you to warm my bed!” Chi Hong said with a smile, pinching Mightyena’s canine face.
Mightyena stuck its tongue out, its tail wagging so hard it looked like it might snap off.
This was just how the setting worked: Pokémon could understand human speech, and trainers could also understand the intentions of Pokémon they had trained for a long time.
Returning to the warehouse, which had an old, dilapidated wooden bed, Chi Hong leaned against Mightyena and quickly drifted off to sleep.
He now felt that his future was looking incredibly bright!
Time flowed by quietly, and it was soon the latter half of the night.
A man wearing a mask and a baseball cap appeared beside the abandoned warehouse where Chi Hong was staying.
After briefly checking the surrounding environment, the man reached his hand toward the ground.
A beam of blue light appeared, and accompanying the blue light, a pet beast over a meter tall was released from his pet beast space.
This pet beast looked humanoid overall, even wearing pants.
Its upper body was covered in black fur, but its head was that of a cat.
A B-Rank pet beast, the Humanoid Cat!
It wasn’t adept at frontal assaults, but it excelled at sneak attacks and gathering intelligence.
The man pointed at a window of the abandoned warehouse.
The Humanoid Cat instantly moved over, not making a single sound during the process.
It extended its feline hand, popping out several sharp claws, and sliced right through the window’s latch as if cutting through tofu.
Inside the warehouse, Mightyena abruptly raised its head.
It sniffed with its nose, then quietly licked Chi Hong’s face without drawing attention.
Chi Hong instantly opened his eyes and immediately met Mightyena’s gaze.
Everything was communicated without a word.
The window was open.
Although the noise was virtually inaudible, Chi Hong still noticed it; after all, he had already received Mightyena’s warning.
He felt truly somewhat helpless.
This was definitely a heap of trouble brought about by Mightyena shocking everyone’s jaws off at the gym during the day.
‘I’m really speechless.
Don’t they know I have a large dog with me?
Do these people lack common sense?
A dog’s most sensitive body part is its nose, isn’t that common knowledge?’ Chi Hong grumbled internally, though on the surface, he made no movement.
The man entered the room and pulled a pistol from his coat.
With the Humanoid Cat following behind him, he crept over to the bedside.
He originally wanted to shoot directly, but upon entering, he realized that the pet beast was actually left out to sleep alongside its tamer, so he immediately changed his tactics.
If a single shot didn’t result in an instant kill, that Mightyena would definitely be awakened, and things could become very troublesome then.
“Kid…
pass on in peace.
Young Master Lin will look after this pet beast for you.”
The man slowly approached with his gun raised.
When he saw Chi Hong’s face, he was shocked to discover that Chi Hong’s eyes were staring wide open!
He subconsciously moved to fire, but a black shadow flashed by.
Before he could even react, his gun-holding right hand, along with his entire arm, was bitten off by Mightyena in a single bite!
This was not the Pokémon anime world; a human being attacked by a Pokémon could die!
Taking Thunderbolts and Flamethrowers head-on like a Super Pallet Town kid simply did not exist!
“Ah!!!” A miserable shriek rang out, and the man immediately backed away.
At the same time, with a wave of his hand, the Humanoid Cat’s sharp claws lunged straight for Chi Hong’s neck.
Chi Hong felt all the hairs on his body stand on end!
He was going to die!
A pet beast killing an ordinary person was just a matter of an instant!
Mightyena headbutted Chi Hong out of the way.
The Humanoid Cat’s claws struck Mightyena’s body, instantly leaving several gruesome scratch marks.
Flesh and skin were torn open, and blood flowed out.
Mightyena, however, didn’t make a single sound.
It simply leapt in front of Chi Hong, turned its head, and bared its fangs.
Thump~~~ A sound occurred, and Chi Hong raised his hand in astonishment, realizing it was actually a red and white Poké Ball.
As if recalling something, he glanced at the clock hanging on the wall; it was already past one in the morning.
“One a day?” Chi Hong raised his hand and threw the red and white Poké Ball, and a familiar figure appeared in his line of sight.
“It’s so late, are you going to let me sleep or not, meow!”
“Eh?”
“What’s the situation right now, meow?”
A creamy-white cat, less than fifty centimeters tall, stood there on its hind legs, rubbing its eyes with a paw.
“There’s another one?
The intel was wrong?” Not far away, the man clutching his severed arm grew extremely pale.
He turned around and bolted!
What a joke?
Two of them?
He had even lost an arm.
If he didn’t run now, he was guaranteed to die without any accidents!
The Humanoid Cat stood frozen in place for a moment, then also ran out.
“Meowth!
Assurance!” This Meowth was one Chi Hong had always kept in his party, so naturally, he was perfectly clear on what skills he had equipped it with, and he immediately issued the command.
Although Meowth hadn’t yet figured out what was happening, the instant Chi Hong’s command was issued, out of trust and tacit understanding for its trainer, it decisively executed the skill!
Its figure darted out like a ghost.
Soon after, a miserable shriek rang out.
It wasn’t a human voice, but rather a cry resembling a ‘meow’.
“What is this thing, meow!
Only after getting close did I realize how ugly it is, meow!!” At the same time, Meowth’s complaining voice echoed back.
“Chase after him and kill him!” Chi Hong stood up with an ashen face, patted Mightyena’s head, and spoke coldly.
A fierce glint flashed through Mightyena’s eyes as it charged straight out, its speed blindingly fast!
