Draw the Poké Ball at the start

"Why is it so far away? Didn't you say that the body of the imperial pet is on the outskirts of the mountain range?

How long have we been walking? Haven't we arrived yet? "

After resting at the gathering place last night, An Lan woke up Zhang Shaoyang and the others early this morning.

The three people who were still immersed in sweet dreams had no choice but to get out of the warm bed sleepily.

Fortunately, after having breakfast, the three of them gradually became energetic.

After setting off from the gathering place, the four of them followed the instructions on the map and quickly moved towards the location of the mysterious royal pet's body.

An Lan heard from Zhang Shaoyang that the body of the mysterious imperial pet was located on the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

I thought it wasn't that far from the gathering place, and it would only take half a day's walk to get there.

But now the sun has reached the top of her head, and she has not seen the shadow of the royal pet's corpse.

I couldn't bear it anymore, so I asked.

Hearing An Lan's question, Zhang Shaoyang, who was walking in front, stopped.

He raised his hand in front of his eyebrows, looked up at the sky, and said in surprise:

"We've only been walking for half a day, not that long. It's still early."

"Is it still early?"

An Lan's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

We have been walking all morning. If this is not a long time, doesn’t it mean that there is still a long way to go.

It was completely different from the journey she had imagined.

She frowned, stared straight at Zhang Shaoyang, and said:

"Tell me honestly, where is the body of the royal pet?"

Zhang Shaoyang looked innocent and took out the map.

He walked to An Lan who had stopped and pointed at the location of the royal pet's body on the map and said:

"I really didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, just see for yourself."

An Lan's suspicious eyes moved from Zhang Shaoyang's face to the map.

The map is not very big, about the size of an A4 piece of paper.

The map roughly marked the locations of small towns and gathering places at the foothills, as well as triangular symbols.

Having seen a map before, she knew that the triangle symbols represented mountains.

Among them, a red circle is clearly drawn near a triangular symbol not far from the gathering place.

If nothing else, that circle represents the body of the mysterious royal pet.

To be honest, according to the mark on the map, the body of the royal pet is really not too far from the gathering place.

But when An Lan noticed the distance between the small town at the foot of the mountain and the gathering place, she realized that the distance that seemed not far away was almost two days' journey.

Because the distance from the gathering place to the body of the royal pet is twice the distance from the foothill town to the gathering place.

In other words, it will be almost tomorrow afternoon when they arrive at the location of the mysterious royal pet's body.

Suddenly, An Lan's body became stiff, he slowly turned his neck, and his eyes seemed to be burning with anger when he looked at Zhang Shaoyang.

"Is this the 'periphery' you're talking about?"

Seeing An Lan gritting his teeth, Zhang Shaoyang swallowed silently, stepped back carefully, and said timidly:

"This is definitely the periphery, it's just that the periphery is a little bigger."

After a pause, he suddenly realized that he was the right one, and he couldn't help but feel more confident:

"I said, you don't know how big the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range is, right?

Even if it were twice as far away, it would still be within the peripheral range. "

An Lan was immediately speechless.

What Zhang Shaoyang said was not wrong. Anyone who looked at it would not be able to say that the body of the mysterious royal pet was not outside the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

It's just that her habitual thinking made her think that the periphery was not that far away.

At this moment, Sun Zhe, who had been acting as a sentinel and alert for any unusual movements around him, suddenly shouted:

"Senior, there is a situation."

At the same time, a small black dot fell from the sky and flew towards him quickly.

When the little black dot was about to hit his head, it suddenly hung in the air.

Only then did the black spot reveal its true identity, which was Sun Zhe's thorn bird.

Zhang Shaoyang and An Lan no longer wanted to argue about whether it was "peripheral", and they quickly walked to Sun Zhe's side.

Zhang Shaoyang asked:

"What's going on? Do you have a wild royal pet?"

Sun Zhe nodded solemnly:

"Yes, and there is more than one."

Meeting a wild royal pet in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range is just like meeting a human in the city. It is simply not normal.

After Zhang Shaoyang and the others set off from the gathering place in the morning, they encountered many wild royal pets along the way.

Wild royal pets that can be encountered soon after entering the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range are generally only warrior-level.

There are even many servants.

These wild royal pets are basically a piece of cake for Zhang Shaoyang and the four of them, as long as they don't have hundreds of them at once.

Therefore, whenever Sun Zhe found out that a wild royal pet was coming, the first thing he did was not scream.

Instead, they secretly whispered with Hao Jun for a while, and then the two of them ran away with an excuse.

At the beginning, Zhang Shaoyang didn't notice what the two of them were doing, and just thought they were defecating and peeing.

But after a few times, he realized something was wrong.

If he really pooped and peed, he must have pooped too frequently.

The two of them are not straight-minded, so how could they not be able to hold anything in their stomachs?

He followed them secretly to take a peek, and only then did he realize that they were secretly "fighting monsters."

Zhang Shaoyang didn't care about this, and was even very happy.

The fact that the two of them can take the initiative to train their royal pets shows that they also feel that their own strength is insufficient.

Originally, An Lan wanted to help, but after Zhang Shaoyang's persuasion, he gave up.

But now, Sun Zhe actually stopped training and issued a warning.

That meant that what came this time was not something he and Hao Jun could handle.

"Do you know what royal pet is here?" An Lan asked.

"Know."

Sun Zhe nodded heavily and was about to speak.

At this moment, Hao Jun suddenly shouted and ran over from a distance.

"Senior, save me!"

Suddenly, the three of them looked up.

In the distance, Hao Jun was seen swinging his legs desperately and running towards them crazily.

And behind him, there were several huge shadows.

Zhang Shaoyang and An Lan couldn't help but feel their hearts sinking.

Although they haven't yet seen clearly what royal pets those shadows are, they can already feel the auras of those royal pets.

It’s a commander-level royal pet!

Hao Jun is strong and not slow.

But compared to the few commander-level royal pets behind them, they are still a bit unsatisfactory.

When he ran to a position that was still dozens of meters away from Zhang Shaoyang and the others, the commanding pets were already chasing him.

Several fireballs as big as a washbasin were shot out and quickly hit Hao Jun's back.

The fireball's speed was a few blocks, and it arrived behind Hao Jun in almost the blink of an eye.

Just when Hao Jun was about to be hit, a layer of water shield glowing with lavender light appeared out of thin air, blocking the path of the fireball.

The seemingly thin water shield is extremely strong.

As soon as it was hit by the fireball, there was a sizzling sound and a burst of white mist floated away.

That's water vapor being evaporated from the water shield.

After receiving this blow, the lavender light of the water shield became a little lighter, but it finally blocked the fireball.

But there was more than one fireball.

As subsequent fireballs struck, the sizzling sound continued, and the glow of the water shield became increasingly dim, finally turning into a burst of white mist.

After breaking through the water shield, there were only three fireballs left out of the original number.

Let alone three, Hao Jun couldn't even hold one.

If hit by a fireball, Hao Jun's body would only turn into a pile of ashes, even if it were twice as strong.

Seeing that Hao Jun was about to die under the fireball, Zhang Shaoyang took action.
