Chapter 146: Only Idiots Would Believe It

Translated by Crystal of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

It only took one night for XiaoBao and the other's ‘act of glory' to spread across the Capital Star. After all, they either kidnapped or rescued a lot of beasts.

For such a sudden event, there were all sorts of rumors going on. Some say it was a beast invasion; some say it was a terrorist attack while a very small few believed it to be the only natural. After all, imprisoning beasts were immoral, there was just no way to justify it.

Other than that, the topic of gossip and of great interest was the person who looked identical to Commander of the Fifth Army/Fleet. (第五军团团长) Also, the arrogant, childish voice at the end.

It was only natural for b.r.e.a.s.t.s to rescue their comrades and blast the human base. However, that person was clearly human, so a human who sounded like a rebelling teenager and was a terrorist…treasonous!!

As a human, who could you work for the other side?! Beasts were already going wild, so why aren't you helping humans and dimming their fire? How could you help them!

So, it didn't take long for the central government to initiate an inspection. No matter the method, find and capture the leader and their beast alive.

The investigation simply lead the executive officers who got the order depressed and frustrated. When they went excitedly to the Fifth Army to find clues and witnesses, all they got was bizarre answers!

“Really, really, all I saw was a flash of bright light, and our commander was in front of me with a cannon! I even thought I was dreaming at first!”

“Pshh, I think our commanders got mind-controlled, otherwise how would the voice and body type be identical?”

“No, no, I didn't actually see the commander! The one I saw was the vice-commander! What should I do?!”

“Psshh, can you even see the other person's face with eyes like yours?! Let's see, near-sighted, astigmatism, glaucoma…”

“…say, if I say I saw a tiny old man…would you believe me?”

“…”

“Like h.e.l.l, I'll believe that!”

Thus, those officers who got the order just felt a wave of pressure wash over them. How was this possible?! Almost a hundred people saw a hundred different scenes! What was even weirder was that some say they saw a beast, others only saw a human, and some say the beast escaped at the beginning, but there was also someone who saw the beasts being taken away right in front of them…this was getting difficult.

Although the initial result was unfavorable, the officers chosen were indeed elites, thus after three days of brain-cell-killing-brainstorming, they finally came up with a somewhat plausible conclusion amongst the implausible ones.

This was the work of a well-organized rescue squad. There were six to ten level B beasts partic.i.p.ating with at least one specializing in creating illusions. They first shielded all of the beasts from sight to create the illusion of all the beasts escaping. Then, there was at least a lightning and fire type beasts who attacked. According to Zhang Yun's account, there was also a flying type beasts. Other than that, there was a child around eleven to twelve who had a high-level transforming ability.
