Chapter 44: So-Called Physical Therapy
Chapter 44: Chapter 44: So-Called Physical Therapy
The Electric Flying Cat knew it could no longer play dead.
The big guy it had ambushed several times was already on the brink of a rampage. Continuing to play dead might just get it knocked away.
“Dian Dian…”
In a flash, the Electric Flying Cat’s mind raced and quickly decided on a strategy.
The next second,
it slowly opened its eyes, first pretending to rub its head, then looked up at the three guys in front of it with eyes full of fear and fright.
Tears brimmed in the Electric Flying Cat’s eyes, and its pitiful little face drooped as it sobbed softly.
Woo woo woo~
I didn’t mean to~
“Aoo….”
Seeing the Electric Flying Cat’s reaction, Cola scratched its head, turning to look at Spark, who had a serious expression, and barked softly.
Did we misunderstand her?
Spark did not respond, its deep blue eyes fixed intently on the sobbing Electric Flying Cat, a thoughtful look flashing across its delicate little face.
Something’s off… Really off.
“Snort snort!”
In contrast to the hesitation of the two little ones, the Gray-armored Wild Boar was unaffected, constantly reminded by the claw marks on its body that the little one opposite was extremely cunning!
In an instant,
the Gray-armored Wild Boar stomped heavily on the ground, and a thick, powerful wave of Earth-type energy surged rapidly across the ground, continuously attacking the Electric Flying Cat like a wave.
“Aoo…”
Seeing the Gray-armored Wild Boar launch an attack on the Electric Flying Cat without hesitation, Cola looked at the pitiable creature and showed a trace of reluctance.
But it gritted its teeth and chose not to intervene.
Forget it, as long as we successfully take this guy back to the master.
Rumble!
The ground beneath let out a tremor. Seeing that its trick didn’t affect the Gray-armored Wild Boar, the Electric Flying Cat had no choice but to spread its yellow thin wings, dazzling electric currents flickering as it flew upwards, successfully avoiding the Earth Step.
However, at that moment,
a scorching column of fire erupted from above, the extreme temperature making the Electric Flying Cat feel like it was in a furnace, its expression changing drastically, forcing it to abandon its plan to fly upward.
Landing back on the ground, just as it breathed a sigh of relief for dodging the sudden flames, it met a pair of clear, lake-like deep blue eyes.
These eyes were extraordinarily calm, yet they inexplicably gave it a massive sense of pressure, causing the Electric Flying Cat to tremble, losing any intention of escape.
Swallowing a bit of saliva secretly, the Electric Flying Cat looked down and saw the pair of icy cold, sharp claws on Spark, falling into silence.
Getting caught by those claws would be fatal, right?
In a short time, the Electric Flying Cat had already confirmed that this was a terrifying opponent it couldn’t face, and escape was just a fantasy.
If that’s the case…..
The Electric Flying Cat bared its teeth, giving a fierce yet adorable look, shedding all pretense of grievance and fear.
“Dian Dian!”
Kill or cut, do as you please!
“Aoo!”
Seeing this, Cola, who initially felt some sympathy, immediately became furious, its majestic dog head let out a low roar at the Electric Flying Cat.
I was fooled!!!
It’s all your fault!!!
Simultaneously, Cola secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thankful its master hadn’t come along.
“Snort snort.”
The Gray-armored Wild Boar shot a sideways glance at the belatedly aware Cola, with a faint sneer appearing on its rugged face.
Little buddy, now you see how cunning this guy is?
“Aoo aoo!”
Cola nodded repeatedly.
“Aoo?”
Afterwards, Cola turned to look at Spark, inquiring what to do next.
“Chee chee.”
Spark gently flapped its wings, a flicker in its eyes.
Take it back for the Beastmaster to handle.
…
“Why haven’t they come back yet?” Zhang Hao looked at the dark night, unable to see the little ones’ figures, and couldn’t help but speak.
Chen Yuan remained calm: “Don’t worry, they should be back soon.”
Spark is steady and calm, and Cola is brave and fearless. Together, these two little guys are unbeatable.
This mere fruit thief is no match to capture.
“Look, they’re coming back now.”
In the thick darkness, a bright, flame-like figure first appeared, followed by three figures in succession.
“Aoo aoo aoo~”
Cola trotted over to Chen Yuan, wagging its tail side to side, licking the palm of his hand with a sense of guilty unease.
Chen Yuan patted its head and asked, “Where’s the fruit thief?”
Cola stepped aside, allowing Chen Yuan to clearly see the fruit-stealing Extraordinary Creature—covered in reddish-brown fur with relatively short limbs, round cheeks with circular yellow electric sacs on either side, and yellow thin wings on its back resembling both a cape and wings.
Aside from the yellow thin wings, Chen Yuan thought this Extraordinary Creature looked at least seventy percent like a red panda, perhaps even cuter.
Such an adorable little creature, being a thief?
With an inner grumble, Chen Yuan saw Zhang Hao beside him already taking out his phone to snap a photo, asking casually, “Sending it to Song?”
“For my girlfriend, she likes cute animals like this,” Zhang Hao chuckled.
Chen Yuan said nothing, silently giving a middle finger.
“Spark, what happened earlier?” Chen Yuan asked Spark.
“Chee chee chee~”
Spark’s eyes remained calm as it recounted everything that happened earlier.
When he relayed the events to Uncle Zhao and Zhang Hao, they couldn’t help but click their tongues: “Playing dead and acting pitiful, this little guy is quite clever.”
“I’d say cunning.” Uncle Zhao’s perception didn’t include ’cute,’ glaring at this fruit thief just like the Gray-armored Wild Boar.
Can cuteness fill the stomach?
Hearing Chen Yuan and Zhang Hao discuss, those fruits are worth quite a bit of money, just wasted by this guy!
Chen Yuan looked at Zhang Hao: “Haozi, does the Beastmaster Association have regulations for handling situations like these where public property is damaged?”
“Yes,” Zhang Hao replied without hesitation. “First, capture it for some educational guidance, then decide on handling methods based on its disposition.”
“If it gains enough awareness and is willing to befriend humans, it gets sent to a newly established breeding base, waiting for a Beastmaster’s contract.”
“If unwilling but poses no threat to people, it’s released back into the wild.”
“If… after educational attempts it still poses a danger, more forceful measures are taken, engaging in ’physical therapy.’”
Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow: “Physical therapy?”
“A good thrashing, until it’s harmless to ordinary people,” Zhang Hao said nonchalantly.
Chen Yuan remained silent for a moment, yet couldn’t deny it’s the best course to protect ordinary people.
In the end, it’s all about prioritizing humanity.
“And this little guy now…” Chen Yuan hesitated.
“Hmm, it’s a bit late now, unsure who’s on gate duty today?” Zhang Hao furrowed his brows in thought.
Chen Yuan suggested, “Then I’ll take it back to the farm first, safer for me to keep an eye on it.”
“Perfect.” Zhang Hao beamed with joy.
He was actually hoping for this outcome, saving a lot of trouble.
Seeing the two ignoring it, arranging things with reckless abandon, the Electric Flying Cat suddenly got angry, baring its claws!
“Dian Dian!”
