Draw the Poké Ball at the start

"Hey, Shaoyang, you got up so early, why don't you sleep more?

We have to wait a little longer before we hit the road. You can go back and have a rest. "

Early in the morning, Qi Kaidong led two people on a patrol around the area.

As soon as he returned to the camp after completing his daily patrol, he saw Zhang Shaoyang walking out of the tent sleepily.

Bian Shang stepped forward with a smile and said.

The two people traveling with him also agreed and asked Zhang Shaoyang to go back and have a rest.

The attitudes of these people were in sharp contrast to when they first met Zhang Shaoyang.

In fact, it’s no wonder they are like this.

Ever since the big-mouthed Hao Jun revealed the truth that night, everyone in the caravan was in awe of Zhang Shaoyang.

Even Qi Kaidong raised Zhang Shaoyang's attention by several levels.

He originally thought that at Zhang Shaoyang's age, no matter how strong he was, he would only have a warrior-level royal pet like him.

But he didn't expect that other people's warrior-level royal pets were completely different from his warrior-level royal pets, and there were still three of them.

He asked himself that he couldn't escape in front of the commander-level royal pet.

And unlike him, Zhang Shaoyang is still so young, and there is obviously still a lot of room for improvement.

Maybe the next time they meet, Zhang Shaoyang will become a big shot that he can't reach.

When ordinary people face strong people, they either stay away from them or find ways to make friends with them.

Although Zhang Shaoyang is not yet considered a strong man, he is at least a strong reserve.

Qi Kaidong has been in the caravan for so many years, and all his edges and corners have been worn away.

Now he just wants to live a better life.

How can he live a good life just by relying on the warrior-level pet he contracted?

Of course not!

If you want to live well, you can only rely on the boss!

If he can't be a boss himself, he needs to find someone who can.

Now that he had discovered such a thick "thigh", of course he had to hold it tightly.

As long as Zhang Shaoyang can remember him a little bit in the future, what he does now will be rewarded.

As for whether he is still worried that Zhang Shaoyang and the others will have bad intentions for his goods this time.

He no longer had this thought at all.

With Zhang Shaoyang's strength, there is absolutely no need for him to do any tricks secretly.

If he really wants to snatch these things, all he has to do is release his three royal pets.

Zhang Shaoyang, who was stretching his back, stopped quickly when he heard Qi Kaidong's voice.

He looked at the sun hanging high above his head and said awkwardly:

"No, no, no."

It's almost noon now.

According to the practice these days, the caravan had already set off on the road.

But today it's still where it is.

It was most likely that the departure time was delayed because he hadn't gotten up yet.

Although he has become accustomed to the "enthusiastic treatment" of people in the caravan these days.

But after all, it slowed down the progress of the entire caravan, and Zhang Shaoyang was still a little embarrassed.

How could Qi Kaidong not see what Zhang Shaoyang was thinking? He quickly waved his hand and said:

"What I said is true. According to the original plan, we didn't hit the road until lunch today.

You could really go back to sleep again. "

Zhang Shaoyang was immediately curious as to why today's itinerary was different from the previous few days.

Could it be that the road ahead is not easy, so we set aside time to rest today?

Just when he was thinking wildly, Qi Kaidong had already told him the reason.

"According to the speed we are traveling, we will arrive at Tag City today.

The section of road after passing Tage City is not suitable for camping at night due to the increase in wild royal pets.

So we decided before departure that we would rest one night in Tage City and start our journey early the next morning.

Try to cover that stretch of road in one day.

Therefore, today's journey is relatively short, so there is no need to rush, as long as we can reach Tag City before dark. "

After hearing this, Zhang Shaoyang realized what was going on.

He scratched his hair and refused with a smile:

"No need, I slept long enough last night. Going back to sleep would be a waste of life."

After saying that, without waiting for Qi Kaidong to persuade him again, he asked Qi Kaidong where Hao Jun and Sun Zhe had gone.

He hadn't seen those two people since he woke up in the morning, and he still hadn't seen them after he came out.

He suspected that Hao Jun was still losing his temper and deliberately avoiding him.

Originally, it was the same, having one more trump card when going out would give you more confidence.

Zhang Shaoyang didn't pay attention that day and was completely exposed by Hao Jun.

Zhang Shaoyang almost exploded with anger.

But in front of outsiders, he still had to force a smile.

Fortunately, Hao Jun only talked about the encounter with the giant anaconda at that time, and did not have time to tell the story about the fur ball and Xiao Yin.

Otherwise, I am afraid that he will have the intention to kill people and silence them.

After that night, he never gave Hao Jun a good look, and he fully grasped the majesty of his senior.

Hao Jun himself realized his mistake and has been sincerely apologizing to Zhang Shaoyang and asking for Zhang Shaoyang's forgiveness.

But Zhang Shaoyang was a person who always wanted to make trouble without any reason, so how could he let Hao Jun off easily.

It was like a curse that kept chanting in Hao Jun's ears.

It was okay for a while, but for a few days, Hao Jun couldn't stand it anymore, so he began to avoid Zhang Shaoyang intentionally or unintentionally.

At the same time, he also took Sun Zhe with him.

Fortunately, Sun Zhe was still a general person and told Zhang Shaoyang about Hao Jun's condition.

After another round of analysis, Zhang Shaoyang was finally persuaded to stop talking about Hao Jun.

Who would have imagined that a consensus was reached the day before, and today Hao Jun actually started to play this trick again.

Zhang Shaoyang decided to have an honest talk with Hao Jun to resolve all problems.

Seeing that Zhang Shaoyang was really not allowed to go back to rest, Qi Kaidong told Zhang Shaoyang where Hao Jun was going.

After learning the whereabouts of Hao Jun, Zhang Shaoyang walked away on his own.

Found Hao Jun by a pond.

After some "friendly" negotiations, Hao Jun promised not to tell outsiders any information about himself in the future.

At the same time, you cannot deliberately avoid your own people.

Zhang Shaoyang also agreed not to use the "tightening curse" again.

After settling Hao Jun's matter, Zhang Shaoyang returned to the camp.

At this time, breakfast time has long passed, and Zhang Shaoyang can only eat a few mouthfuls of dry food to satisfy his hunger.

After lunch, the caravan continued on its way towards Tag City.

Unlike Rock City, Tag City is only a second-level city, and there is no branch of the Pet Masters Association in the city.

The entire city is only one-third the size of Giant Rock City.

However, due to the good geographical location of Tag City, it is adjacent to Thousand Needles Forest, Gale Wind Grassland and Echo Canyon.

Therefore, even if the number of pet masters in the city is compared with that in Giant Rock City, there is not much difference.

Maybe even a little more.

It's easy to cause trouble when there are more people, let alone arrogant pet masters.

Therefore, battles between pet masters and pet masters are often seen in Tag City.

The fight between royal pets will undoubtedly bring disaster to the pond, but in the end it will be ordinary people who are unlucky.

In order to ensure the safety of ordinary people living in Tag City, the Pet Masters Association has even considered making an exception and setting up a branch in this second-tier city.

However, after encountering joint opposition from all major city branches, this matter had to be dropped.

In fact, that's true, if we really make an exception and set up a branch of the Pet Masters Association here.

Other secondary cities can also find various reasons to require the Pet Masters Association to set up local branches.

Once the hole is opened, it is not so easy to close it again.

If every secondary city has a pet master branch, the main city's attraction to pet masters will undoubtedly be much reduced.

The vast majority of pet masters will definitely choose a city whose geographical conditions are conducive to hunting and exploration.

As for the main city, due to various relationships, except for a few exceptions, the rest are almost all built in very safe places.

This means that most major cities have no place to hunt or explore.

For a city, if the number of pet masters is not large, the city will inevitably slowly decline.

Whether ordinary people care about it or not, they are actually working for pet masters throughout their lives.

If the number of pet masters is small, ordinary people's lives will be difficult.

In order to live comfortably, ordinary people will inevitably move to other cities.

Over time, even the main city will be unable to bear it.

Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, any pet master branch in the main city will not allow the general association to set up branches in secondary cities.

But without setting up a branch, it would be impossible to watch all the ordinary people in Tag City die in the aftermath of the battle between pet masters.

After a brief and effective discussion, both parties made concessions.

It was agreed to set up a fighting place in Tag City specifically to resolve disputes.

It sounds similar to the Colosseum.

But in reality it's completely different.

The biggest difference is that the Colosseum has dedicated personnel to guard and judge the outcome, and pet masters are not allowed to kill each other.

But the battle scene in Tag City is different.

In addition to sending out necessary personnel to maintain order, the official did not have any guards or referees.

As long as two people agree to fight, it means that it must end with one party completely falling.

As for how to define "complete collapse", no one can tell clearly.

But after the battle site is established, the battle will end except for those who die.

The least severe ones left are imperial pets that are dead and paralyzed all over.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this cruel battle that Tage City, which is only a second-level city, has become "famous" throughout the Landor Continent.

I don’t know when, Tag City also had another name - Bloody City.

Even Zhang Shaoyang has heard this name many times in the Colosseum.

......

The sun was about to set. Normally at this time, the road outside Tag City would be empty.

But today, unusually, there is still a group of people moving forward on the road.

Judging from the appearance, this is a team running business.

There were less than 20 people in the entire team, and three carts were dragged forward by giant hoof beasts.

The only surprising thing is that only two of the three pallet trucks have goods piled on them.

The last one had three people sitting or lying on it.

Those three people, one fat, one thin, and one bald, were Sun Zhe, Zhang Shaoyang and Hao Jun.

After realizing that they were not far from Tag City, all three people jumped out of the car.

They didn't feel it a few days ago, but after knowing that they were going to the city to rest today, Zhang Shaoyang and the other three suddenly found that the caravan was moving a bit slowly.

In order to get into the city as soon as possible, the three of them helped the caravan for the first time after getting off the car.

"Xiao Junjun, fat man, you haven't eaten yet, so work harder!"

Looking at Hao Jun and Sun Zhe who were pushing the cart, Zhang Shaoyang said with hatred.

He thought that with their help, the cart could move faster.

But they never thought that even though the two of them were sweating from pushing, they didn't see the speed of the cart increase.

Zhang Shaoyang was immediately anxious.

Hao Jun wiped his sweat and muttered loudly:

"This is already my strongest strength, but I just can't push it. Why don't you, senior, try it too?"

Zhang Shaoyang did not believe in evil and joined in.

But after pushing it, he discovered that the speed of the cart had not changed at all from before he pushed it.

Hearing the noise made by the three people, Qi Kaidong walked over and asked in surprise:

"What are you doing?"

The three of them replied in unison:

"Trolley!"

Qi Kaidong's expression suddenly became very strange.

He was silent for a moment and said slowly:

"The cart is fixed to the giant hoofed beast. If you push it like this, you are pushing the giant hoofed beast. It will definitely not work."

The appearance of the giant hoofed beast is somewhat similar to the rhinoceros Zhang Shaoyang saw in his previous life.

It just doesn’t have rhinoceros horns and is twice as big as a rhinoceros.

In addition, the four hooves of the giant hoofed beast are several times the size of the rhino's hooves.

Judging from the weight alone, the giant hoofed beast weighs at least several tons.

Coupled with its own strength, let alone Zhang Shaoyang and the three of them.

Even if the whole caravan comes together, they may not be able to push it.

After hearing Qi Kaidong's words, Hao Jun and Sun Zhe immediately turned their eyes to Zhang Shaoyang, with a sad light shining in their eyes.

Zhang Shaoyang couldn't help but touched his nose awkwardly.

Qi Kaidong glanced at them with a smile, knowing that they were anxious to enter the city, so he shook his head and said:

"The giant hoof beast is a servant-level royal pet with a docile personality and timidity, but it is very powerful.

It is often the first choice royal pet for caravans to transport goods.

However, there is a disadvantage to being strong. Once it is frightened and loses control, it is difficult to control it again.

So we don't dare to let the giant hoofed beast run too fast to avoid accidents. "

Having said this, he paused, scanned the three people's faces, and then said:

"It's not far from Tag City now. If you want to get into the city quickly, you can go in first, and we will arrive soon."

Although Zhang Shaoyang was a little moved, he thought that now everyone was traveling together.

It didn't matter if they left now, so he refused.

Unable to speed up the caravan, Zhang Shaoyang and the others had to lie back on the cart.

Anyway, the extra weight of the three of them makes no difference at all to the giant hoofed beast.

Just like that, while the three of them were waiting anxiously, Tag City arrived.

He didn't feel it outside the city, but as soon as he entered Tage City, Zhang Shaoyang felt the "breath of the world" again.

At this time, it was not completely dark yet.

The city of Tagg was still bustling with people.

Many businesses facing the street have even lit their lights in advance.

Unlike Rock City where only a few streets were busy, in Tag City the whole city was as bright as daytime, with an endless stream of people.

And almost every shop and stall here sells things related to pet masters.

At a certain moment, Zhang Shaoyang even felt that Giant Rock City was a secondary city and this was the main city.

Zhang Shaoyang and the others followed the caravan and turned left and right on the street.

After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, we stopped in front of a restaurant called "Tongfu Tower".

Qi Kaidong asked the caravan people to wait outside and walked in himself.

Not long after, he came out again.

At the same time, there was a man dressed as an attendant following behind him.

No need to think, it must be the service staff of this restaurant.

Under the leadership of that person, the caravan members bypassed the restaurant gate, entered the hotel's accommodation through the side door, and settled down.
