Chapter 101: Red Lightning

~8 min read 1,495 words

That Ye Ye Ranran's Desert Tail Fox was so capable was something Qiao Sang had never expected, and her emotions immediately relaxed.

With more than two hundred pet beasts, the Fire Tooth Dog was running second; there was no way it would end up in last place.

Over there, after the Fire Tooth Dog put on the yellow relay belt, it rushed out with a "whoosh."

"Xun!"

"Xun!"

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost shouted encouragement desperately.

While shouting, it also floated over.

Qiao Sang pulled it back with quick eyes and fast hands.

"Xun?"

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost looked innocent.

"Don't waste your energy; the sixth leg still depends on you. We'll go directly to Liuyang River to wait for Ya Bao," Qiao Sang said.

This was half-true and half-false; the first half was false, and the second half was true. She hadn't counted on the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost for the sixth leg at all.

Following the run was impossible; the third leg was 10 kilometers away at Liuyang River. With her small arms and legs, she would probably be finished before running halfway.

Besides, marathon competitions don't allow following the run. During the process, they have professional medical teams and technical services, and the logistics support is also very safe.

Following the run would lead to some unnecessary trouble and chaos in the competition, and would also lead to poor control of order.

Qiao Sang looked in the direction where the Fire Tooth Dog disappeared.

Ya Bao, we can only support you mentally!

Come on!

The Fire Tooth Dog ran forward desperately.

It remembered its own Beast Tamer saying to follow the main force in front, but in front, let alone a main force, there wasn't even a single competing opponent.

At this time, it also thought of the Six-Tentacle Snail that had run before it.

"Ya!"

The Fire Tooth Dog accelerated.

Then it could only follow that Six-Tentacle Snail first!

I don't know how long it ran.

The Fire Tooth Dog dragged its limbs tiredly, trying hard to move forward.

Now, let alone running, even walking was strenuous.

Although the pet beast marathon is different from the human traditional marathon, in general, it is a competitive sport with high load and a large amount of exercise and long distance.

Although pet beasts can use characteristics and skills to speed up their pace to increase the fun of the competition process, it is unrealistic to always use characteristics to release skills.

Excessive consumption of energy may cause the pet beast to run out of physical strength during the competition.

So pet beasts with marathon competition experience all run a section of the road by themselves and occasionally release skills to increase their speed.

When approaching the destination, they will use characteristics or skills to sprint for a while; Ye Ye Ranran's Desert Tail Fox was like this.

But the Fire Tooth Dog didn't know; it had been running with all its might since the start.

At first, it was fine, but when it slowed down, dozens of competing pet beasts passed it one after another.

The Fire Tooth Dog wasn't stupid either.

During the period, seeing several competing pet beasts use skills, it also released skills to speed up.

Flame Charge, Slam, it had used them all.

But it quickly became powerless.

The Fire Tooth Dog hadn't undergone professional training; what it had been practicing recently was basically about skills.

The few laps around Liu Gan Creek hadn't played any exercise role for the marathon at all.

In terms of physical fitness, it might still be considered not bad among pet beasts of the same tier, but it still didn't reach the standard of a marathon.

The scorching sun roasted the earth.

Even the Fire Tooth Dog, which was never afraid of heat, felt the torment.

The Fire Tooth Dog stuck out its tongue, breathing with difficulty; it felt that it was becoming more and more unable to breathe, and its limbs had to use a lot of effort to lift, simply harder to lift its legs than when it wore the weighted ring back then.

"Ya."

The Fire Tooth Dog called out unconsciously, its throat dry as if it were about to catch fire.

At this time, it suddenly thought of the water its own Beast Tamer mentioned.

It looked around, but didn't find any tables or water.

Not there yet?

The Fire Tooth Dog saw stars, looked at the front dizzily, and thought of the word "give up" for the first time.

So tired...

Really so tired...

"Ball."

A Bouncing Pig happened to pass by.

Its tail was like a spring, the end of the tail was a gray ball, and it was tied with the A099 competition bib.

I saw its tail stand upright, the gray ball at the end of the tail touched the ground, and using the spring-like characteristic of the tail, it jumped and jumped, instantly passing the Fire Tooth Dog.

"Ball."

The Bouncing Pig didn't leave immediately; it turned its head and smiled triumphantly at the Fire Tooth Dog, and provocatively raised its smallest short toe.

"Ya."

The Fire Tooth Dog was instantly enraged.

It wanted to roar at this Bouncing Pig, but the roar it emitted was so weak that only it could hear it.

Watching the Bouncing Pig in front turn its head and leave with a jump, the Fire Tooth Dog only felt a ball of fire in its heart wanting to rush over.

But the heart was willing, and the strength was lacking.

The momentum of rushing out was too fierce, and its already fatigued limbs simply couldn't support it. After two steps, the Fire Tooth Dog's legs softened and it fell down.

In a trance, it seemed to hear its own Beast Tamer calling its name.

Ya Bao.

Actually, it didn't like this name very much; it had no momentum at all, but its own Beast Tamer liked it, so there was no way.

If it fell here, would its own Beast Tamer be disappointed?

And the little brother, it was also waiting for its relay belt.

The Fire Tooth Dog suddenly felt a bit frustrated inside.

Its own Beast Tamer trusted it so much and told it to wait for it at Liuyang River; if it didn't arrive...

Really want to get up and continue...

The faint sparks in the Fire Tooth Dog's body gradually turned into flames. The next moment, the flames jumped, crimson flames surged, and instantly swept it from inside to outside.

"There's a Fire Tooth Dog here, it seems to have run out of strength, hurry and send..." "Damn!" The logistics staff was startled.

"What's wrong? What happened?" the person on the other end of the phone asked worriedly.

"Nothing, just a Fire Tooth Dog that fell down on its own suddenly caught fire... it should have triggered the Blaze characteristic, and then it ran away with a 'whoosh.' It's my first time seeing a fire-type pet beast run a marathon and run out a Blaze," the logistics staff explained with lingering fear.

It's like seeing a patient who fell down suddenly get up and perform a backflip for you, it's still quite scary...

Liuyang River.

Qiao Sang looked at the Bouncing Pig that was using its tail to touch the ground and jump toward the third leg handover point and sighed: "This tail is too suitable for this competition."

"I still think that Ice Snow Raccoon's skill is more suitable; it actually directly let the meat pads on its claws get stuck with ice balls and slid over. I don't know how it thought of it," Ye Ye Ranran said.

"In the middle of summer, the ground is so hot, that ice ball can't last long before it melts. It's just to relax a bit in the middle, but it can be seen that it put in the effort, and the balance is nothing to say," Qiao Sang analyzed.

"A pet beast marathon can think of a slightly energy-saving plan to buffer in the middle, which is enough. It mainly depends on the physical strength and endurance of the pet beast," Ye Ye Ranran laughed.

Qiao Sang was silent for a while and asked: "Then what if there is no energy-saving plan?"

Ye Ye Ranran pondered for a while and said: "Purely relying on physical strength and endurance? Probably not, right? That's so tiring. Everyone will prepare a plan for a pet beast marathon. I haven't seen any idiot come to the competition without a plan."

Qiao Sang: "..."

Heh, the idiot is right here.

"Xun!"

"Xun!"

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost suddenly called out excitedly twice.

Qiao Sang looked at the track.

I saw a figure wrapped in flames rushing over from afar, like a red lightning bolt, passing her eyes with a "whoosh" in an instant, and stopping only after passing the Bouncing Pig that was about to reach the handover point. ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
