There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 167 Extra - Crisis Approaching

As it transformed, the little dragon's vitality grew stronger, and a profound power, seemingly appearing out of thin air, blazed intensely within it.

"Buzz!"

The next moment, Hao Chen seemed to hear a soft chirp, and then he saw the little fire dragon's body surge with immortal light, its radiance overflowing and soaring into the sky.

The intense heat caused the surrounding temperature to rise significantly, making it a veritable mobile heat source.

The dark aura that originally resided within the little fire dragon's body has now been transformed into its very essence by Hao Chen's blood essence and merged into the little fire dragon's body.

The heavens and earth seemed to bless the little fire dragon with a new life. The Dao resounded and transformed into a rune radiating a scorching aura, landing on the little fire dragon's forehead.

"Well……"

Before long, the little dragon slowly opened its eyes, as if it had been in the dark for a long time and then suddenly saw the light, and it was not able to adapt for a while.

The little dragon couldn't help but raise its little claws to cover its eyes. After a while, it finally readjusted to the light.

Just as the little dragon came to its senses, it reacted as if under stress, suddenly flipping over and quickly getting up from the ground.

After looking around and not seeing the figure that terrified him, the little dragon patted his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.

But soon, the little fire dragon noticed Hao Chen, who was quietly watching him from the side. He scratched his head in confusion, wondering if this was the person who had saved him.

"Waaaaaah!"

When faced with Charmander's question, Hao Chen was immediately embarrassed. He couldn't understand it at all, and no one had taught him the language of Pokémon.

However, Hao Chen's mind worked very quickly, and he understood what the little fire dragon meant by reading its thoughts.

Hao Chen patted the little fire dragon's smooth head and said naturally, "It's nothing. From now on, I'm your big brother. With your big brother protecting you, you don't have to be afraid."

The little dragon nodded as if it understood, but it didn't reject Hao Chen's idea of ​​being its older brother. On the contrary, it felt very comfortable to be by its older brother's side.

After seeing the little fire dragon's thoughts, Hao Chen thought to himself with annoyance, "It has already refined a drop of my essence blood, how can I not be close to it?"

"Now that I'm your older brother, I'll give you a little something to show my appreciation today."

After thinking for a moment, Hao Chen communicated with the World Tree and took a branch from it as a gift.

The little dragon looked at the twig Hao Chen handed it to, then asked in confusion, "Waaaaah (Big brother, is this for me to eat? But I don't eat this!)"

"This isn't for you to eat, but..." Hao Chen said, slapping the little dragon's chest and driving a branch of the World Tree into its body.

In an instant, the little dragon found itself feeling refreshed, its internal energy became more active, and it gained many more memories in its mind, or rather, it suddenly understood many things.

However, the little fire dragon, whose brain was not very big to begin with, could not understand this change for a while and could only look at Hao Chen.

Seeing this, Hao Chen picked up the little fire dragon and said, "Alright, don't overthink it. You'll understand when you grow up."

The next moment, Hao Chen suddenly slapped his forehead: "Look at my memory. Now that you're awake, I'll take you back first."

Hao Chen, holding Charmander, instantly reappeared in the operating room of the Pokémon Hospital.

Looking at the doctors who remained as still as statues, Hao Chen felt somewhat sorry for them. He quickly used his divine sense to transmit what had happened to Little Fire Dragon, and at the same time, he had Little Fire Dragon lie on the operating table pretending to have just woken up.

"Waaaaah (Don't worry, leave it to me, bro)"

Seeing that the little fire dragon was ready, Hao Chen snapped his fingers and left silently, and everything returned to normal.

As the doctor was preparing to operate on Charmander with his surgical instruments, he discovered that Charmander's wounds had actually healed.

At this moment, Charmander pretended to have just woken up, opened his eyes, and weakly looked at the doctor who was about to perform surgery on him.

"Waaaaaah!"

Listening to Charmander's cry, though weak, it was full of energy, and the doctors could only marvel at the Pokémon's excellent physical condition.

When Hao Chen appeared in the hospital lobby, he saw Xia Lianxing anxiously searching for something.

Hao Chen walked up behind Xia Lianxing and patted her on the shoulder: "Hey, what are you looking for?"

"Hao Chen, are you trying to scare me to death? Don't suddenly appear behind me, it's terrifying! Don't you know how scary it is to scare someone like that?!"

Hao Chen never expected that simply saying hello would provoke Xia Lianxing's harsh criticism, as if he had committed a grave offense.

"Okay, don't be angry. I just went to the bathroom." Hao Chen casually made up an excuse, thinking he could get away with it for now.

But the next moment, Xia Lianxing looked at Haochen suspiciously, as if she didn't believe him: "The toilet?! Which toilet did you go to? I've looked in all the toilets in the hospital, and I haven't seen you!"

"You've looked everywhere? Even the men's room..."

Hao Chen was completely numb. He just wanted to brush it off, but you actually went to look for him.

"Besides, going to the toilet is just an excuse. I'm a Pixiu, I don't need to go to the toilet. It would be strange if you could meet me in the toilet," Hao Chen thought to himself.

Seeing Hao Chen remain silent, Xia Lianxing panicked and quickly took out something that looked like a tablet: "Okay, enough of that. Here's the information you wanted. I've organized it all. Here!"

Seeing Hao Chen take it, Xia Lianxing finally breathed a sigh of relief. After spending so much time together, she had forgotten that she was dealing with a divine beast, not some sycophant.

Of course, this is not Xia Lianxing's fault. It's mainly because Hao Chen's human form made Xia Lianxing feel like she was with a friend.

She had gone to help Haochen find the information he needed, but when she returned, she couldn't find Haochen.

Realizing her hopes of becoming famous had been dashed, Xia Lianxing became anxious and searched everywhere for Haochen, even looking in the restrooms, but to no avail.

Fortunately, Haochen returned in the end. Xia Lianxing breathed a sigh of relief, but she also kept a closer eye on Haochen, as if she was worried that he would disappear again in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, at that moment, a nurse from the hospital suddenly came over: "Miss Xia, Little Fire Dragon has woken up."

"You're awake! Good, good, thank you."

As Xia Lianxing spoke, she grabbed Hao Chen and tried to go see the little fire dragon: "The little fire dragon is awake, let's go take a look, maybe I can tame the little fire dragon today."

However, when Xia Lianxing arrived with Haochen, they saw Lieutenant Lin standing outside with a worried expression.

"Instructor, what's going on?"

"Ah, it's Xia! You've come to see Charmander too, right? Come on over!"

Hearing Lieutenant Lin's incoherent words, Xia Lianxing was puzzled, but thinking that she might be able to subdue the little fire dragon today, she didn't think much of it.

Xia Lianxing straightened her clothes: "How do I look? Do I look good?"

Hao Chen stared at Xia Lianxing, who was constantly looking in the mirror and getting ready, with a black line on his face. He couldn't help but complain, "Please, are you going on a blind date or to see the little fire dragon?!"

"Of course we're here to see Charmander! Let's go in quickly, I'm so nervous!" Xia Lianxing said, pushing open the door and walking in with Haochen.

Soon, Xia Lianxing, upon seeing the little fire dragon, understood why Lieutenant Lin had looked so worried.

The little fire dragon was no longer weak as it had been at the beginning; it was not only full of energy but also looked like a completely different person.

Seeing the little fire dragon with some inexplicable golden patterns on its body, Xia Lianxing not only didn't find it strange, but also felt that it had gained a bit more mystery and beauty out of nowhere.

In addition, the flames on the little dragon's tail have changed from orange-red to light gold, making it practically Xia Lianxing's dream dragon.

However, this alluring little fire dragon ignored Xia Lianxing completely, not even glancing at her, and kept pouncing on Haochen, barking "Waaaah!"

"Haochen, what's going on? Why is the little fire dragon so clingy to you?!"

"Maybe it's because I'm handsome!" Hao Chen touched his face with a touch of self-admiration.

"Pshaw, I'm pretty good-looking too!"

Xia Lianxing was somewhat unconvinced and stared intently at the little fire dragon, but this frightened the little fire dragon so much that it kept burrowing into Hao Chen's arms.

"Waaaaah (Dude, is this woman crazy? Why is she looking at me like that, like she wants to eat me alive?)"

Hao Chen patted the little fire dragon's belly in an annoyed tone: "You're happy, she's taken a liking to you!"

However, the next moment, the entire hospital suddenly shook violently.

"Earthquake! Run!"

Someone shouted something, and everyone panicked.

Fortunately, this was a Pokémon hospital, and all the injured Pokémon were put into their Poké Balls by their owners and taken outside.

Golden runes flashed in Hao Chen's eyes. Through the power of the runes, he saw a strange beast standing above the hospital. It looked like a cow, but had four horns, human eyes, and pig ears.

In an instant, a description appeared in Hao Chen's mind: "On the mountain of Beiyue, there is a beast that looks like an ox but has four horns, human eyes, and pig ears. Its name is Zhuhuai."
