Chapter 57 The Suddenly Appearing Armored Rhinoceros
Chapter 57 The Suddenly Appearing Armored Rhinoceros
"Paras?"
Looking at the few Pokémon in the grass, Qingyuan said with some confusion.
"Damn it, if I had known it was Paras, I wouldn't have hugged Scorpio. Now I'm so embarrassed!"
As Qingyuan put the Scorpion down from his arms, he thought to himself.
"Pila-shi!"
Looking at Qingyuan and the cat boss in front of them, the Paras huddled together, howling in fear.
Qingyuan didn't care about Paras's fear, and instead took out the Pokédex to scan Paras's information.
Anyway, he won't hurt them later, so what's wrong with scaring them a little?
Paras is similar to a cicada larva. It is mostly orange, with three pairs of legs, the first pair being larger and having sharp tips. It has five granular protrusions on its forehead and six teeth on either side of its mouthparts. Paras has very large eyes and black pupils. Two pale yellow-spotted red mushrooms are parasitized on its back.
A smile appeared on Qingyuan's face as he listened to the electronic music playing in the Pokédex.
Great, we've collected information on another type of sprite.
At this rate, he won't be long before he collects all the Pokémon in the Kanto region.
Qingyuan was feeling quite pleased with himself as he looked through Paras's detailed information.
The information was largely the same as what he knew in his previous life; the mushrooms on Paras were the main body.
The insects are merely puppets controlled by the mushrooms.
Once it evolves into Parasect, the insect's will will be completely killed.
"What a pathetic fellow!"
Qingyuan sighed as he looked at Paras's information.
Suddenly, Qingyuan looked at the information on the Pokédex and gripped it tightly with his right hand.
"This is a precious mushroom that can be used as a medicine for longevity!"
Qingyuan read out the information from the Pokédex, word by word.
"Boss Cat, use Split to pick the mushrooms off the backs of these elves!"
Qingyuan stared fervently at the mushroom on Paras's back and gave orders to the cat boss.
"Meow!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Cat Boss did not hesitate at all. His right paw flashed with white light, and he chopped off the mushroom on Paras's back.
"Pila-shi!"
Paras screamed as he was slashed, his eyes turning into circles as he instantly lost his ability to fight.
"Pila-shi!"
Upon seeing this, Paras, who was standing nearby, immediately hugged each other and screamed in terror.
The cat boss doesn't care if you're scared or not; it just grabs a kid and grabs them.
They quickly cut off all the mushrooms from Paras's body.
Qingyuan picked up the mushrooms from the ground one by one.
A total of eight Paras contributed thirteen mushrooms to Qingyuan.
Yes, not all pararas have mushrooms behind them.
Qingyuan carefully examined them and found that some of the Paras had their mushrooms bitten off on their backs by something.
Where the mushrooms used to grow, only a neat tooth mark remains.
Although Qingyuan felt a little sorry for the mushrooms that were eaten.
However, Qingyuan was still very happy to have harvested thirteen mushrooms that could be used as longevity medicine.
Although he didn't really believe that the mushrooms behind Paras could actually be used as a longevity elixir.
But this at least proves that the mushrooms behind Paras are edible.
This gave Qingyuan, who was still wondering what to eat for dinner after leaving the campsite, a new idea.
He decided to make mushroom soup tonight, since he only had thirteen mushrooms.
If they were to roast them, he and the other five would each only get two.
If it were made into mushroom soup, everyone could get a big bowl and enjoy it to their heart's content.
After thinking it over, Qingyuan released the little fire dragon and chased the scorpion away to gather firewood. He then instructed the little fire dragon to start a campfire.
Watching the little fire dragon struggling to start a fire, Qingyuan took out the cutting board from his backpack.
He planned to prepare the ingredients for the mushroom soup first.
"Huh!"
Just then, an angry voice reached Qingyuan's ears.
Qingyuan looked in the direction from which the sound came and saw an armored rhinoceros, its front hooves constantly rubbing against the ground.
At the same time, it pointed its single horn at Qingyuan and the others, making a charging stance.
"Groo-wa!"
The little dragon couldn't stand seeing the arrogant armored rhinoceros.
It charged up to Qingyuan, spitting out a burst of sparks at the armored rhinoceros in a provocative manner, and then adopted a fighting stance, letting out a loud roar at the armored rhinoceros.
"Huh!"
Seeing Charmander's behavior, the already furious Rhinoceros could no longer contain itself.
Its single horn flashed white light as it charged fiercely towards the little fire dragon.
"Little Charmander, get out of the way!"
"Boss Cat, use Iron Tail!"
Seeing the armored rhinoceros charging towards him, Qingyuan shouted his command.
Just by looking at the size and imposing presence of the armored rhinoceros, you can tell that this armored rhinoceros is of a high level.
Charmander is no match for us, so rather than letting Charmander get beaten up, it's better to let Persian take over the battlefield.
"Meow!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Cat Boss did not hesitate at all.
It charged rapidly toward the armored rhinoceros, its tail turning silver-white. Then, with a backflip, it smashed its iron tail toward the rhinoceros's head.
"Huh!"
Looking at the cat boss, who exuded a dangerous aura and was attacking him.
The armored rhinoceros quickly made the right choice, charging headlong into the cat boss with its glowing horn.
"Groo-wa!"
Seeing this, Charmander shouted in frustration.
It also wanted to fight the big Ironclad Rhinoceros and show Qingyuan how much stronger it had become after its special training.
"Little Charmander, come here and protect me closely!"
Seeing the cat boss fiercely battling the armored rhinoceros, Qingyuan, worried about being ambushed, casually called out to the little fire dragon.
The little dragon was immediately delighted upon hearing this.
Qingyuan asked it to protect him, which shows he believed in the little fire dragon's strength.
This made Charmander, who was feeling a bit annoyed because he couldn't fight the Ironclad Rhino to prove himself, suddenly happy.
Qingyuan ignored the little fire dragon's changing emotions; he was focused on watching the battle between Cat Boss and the Armored Rhinoceros.
After the clash between the horn and the iron tail, Cat Boss is now using its metal claws to launch a close-range attack on the Armored Rhino.
Ironclad Rhino held its own against Cat Boss's attacks.
The single horn on its head was like a giant sword, blocking all of the cat boss's attacks.
This armored rhinoceros is probably no lower than level 30.
Qingyuan looked at the armored rhinoceros fighting the cat boss to a standstill and guessed in his mind.
"Boss Cat, use a piercing sound!"
Seeing the two equally matched Pokémon, in order to find a way out, Qingyuan commanded the cat boss to change its moves.
After saying that, Qingyuan covered his ears first.
The little fire dragon next to him covered its ears almost at the same time as Qingyuan after he gave the order.
There was no other way; during these few days that Qingyuan and Cat Boss were getting used to each other.
It and the scorpions had been tormented by this piercing sound countless times.
This has led to the fact that now, whenever Qingyuan shouts a harsh sound, it will reflexively cover its ears.
"Meow!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Cat Boss retreated and stopped attacking the Armored Rhinoceros.
The armored rhinoceros was taken aback upon seeing this.
Before it could react, the eldest cat opened its mouth wide and let out a sharp cry.
