Chapter 25 The Security Guard's Dream
"Help me... Xiao Huolong... Help me..."

[Hehehe! You old devil, where do you think you're going to run this time!]

ho-

He gasped, and Xiao Huolong sat up abruptly from his sickbed at the Elf Center.

Old Red was captured by a group of Gastlys claiming to be messengers of the Soul Palace, and is being whipped every day while they're making medicine...

Why would I have this kind of dream?

Startled awake from his dream, Xiao Huolong began shaking the camera from side to side, immediately realizing something was wrong.

Mo Zhen was nowhere to be seen; only a pink-haired fat pig was frowning and muttering something.

"To insert or not to insert!"

This plush, pink-haired, chubby pig is scientifically known as a 'Almost Doll,' AKA Unova's Chansey, a unique experience pack in the black and white version of the game, and a designated nurse for furry lovers.

Seeing Xiao Huolong sit up from the hospital bed, Xiao Huolong gestured for him to lie down quickly. There were still five courses of medication left to be administered, and they would see how things went after those were finished.

This is the basic operation of Hezhong Medical: regardless of whether it's a serious or minor illness or whether it's effective or not, the expensive drugs from those pharmaceutical companies with vested interests must be arranged.

On the surface, this is a medical center for treating elves, but in reality, it is a pharmacy disguised as a hospital.

A whole host of miscellaneous tests and treatments can cost you tens of thousands of Hezhong coins even for a minor cold.

The United States' unique capitalist medical system will not rest until it has completely exploited these patients.

But at this moment, Xiao Huolong was extremely anxious and couldn't care less about what the pink-haired fat pig in front of him was saying.

It leaped off the bed with a somersault, its fighting spirit exploding instantly, followed by a rocket dash, and sprinted towards the outside of the Pokémon Center.

This is a small step for Xiao Huolong, but a giant leap for Hezhong Free Medical Care.

Upon seeing someone performing a free shopping spree inside the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy at the front desk immediately unleashed her [Loud Roar].

"Quickly grab that little fire dragon! Its medical bills haven't been paid yet!"

In an instant, almost all the Pokémon in the Pokémon Center rushed over from all directions to surround and capture it.

However, Xiao Huolong, who had been using fighting spirit to strengthen his body for a long time, had a physical quality far exceeding that of ordinary elves.

With its Tyrannosaurus Rex-like agility, it strode swiftly out of the Pokémon Center in the blink of an eye. The group of fat, big-eared experience pets inside the Pokémon Center couldn't even catch a whiff of its exhaust.

Witnessing this pioneering work in the medical field, Ms. Joey was heartbroken.

"Damn it... I must notify Officer Jenny immediately. We absolutely cannot let this guy get away with this!"

……

Early in the morning, a series of noisy and chaotic sounds broke the tranquility of the night.

Mo Zhen, who had been woken up, stretched on the haystack and immediately saw a rare sight.

The security team was seen locked in a tense standoff with an enraged orange-skinned lizard.

Upon seeing the familiar orange-skinned lizard, Mo Zhen realized that his black slave experience card had expired.

Xiao Mengzi was even more excited.

[Thank goodness it's Xiao Huolong! We're saved!]

Mo Zhen, sitting on the haystack, remained calm and composed, as if everything was under control.

"See, I told you so! As long as you have a good dream, everything will be alright!"

Faced with this ferocious orange-skinned lizard, the security team immediately formed a 10:0:1 formation, with 10 Hayoks leading the charge, while the fountain commander Riolu stayed behind to provide professional guidance.

At this moment, Riolu transforms into Coach Riolu, giving pointers to his powerful subordinates.

Upon witnessing this scene, Xiaomengzi immediately cried out in surprise.

【Quack! Lord Mo Zhen, this blue-skinned dog has mastered the Proficiency-level [Guidance] skill! This is a terrible situation! [Guidance] is a profound and complex skill.】

As a leader, you don't need to do any manual labor yourself; you only need excellent guidance skills to elevate the overall level of a team.

As the captain of the security brigade, Instructor Li improved the offensive and defensive capabilities of all members of the brigade by providing correct and reasonable tactical guidance.

Huh? You're asking why the stats on the watchdogs changed after the blue-skinned dog gave them some "guidance" from behind? Does this kind of awkwardly designed skill have any convincing internal logic?
Hey, that's what they call a "mechanism"!

You must understand that the mechanism is the fundamental basis for how this world works. Let us question the mechanism, understand the mechanism, and finally integrate into the mechanism!

On the battlefield, facing the ferocious hounds under Li's command, Xiao Huolong's eyes blazed with fury, and his fighting spirit surged like boiling magma!
Elder Chi, your disciple is here to save you now! All you rats of the Soul Palace, prepare to die!

I want to hit ten!
click!
With a sudden stomp that cracked the ground, Xiao Huolong, like a steam engine running at full power, unleashed his inner fighting spirit, unleashing the effect of "Lightning Flash" and launching a thunderous attack on the first attacking Hayok.

Seeing Xiao Huolong's aggressive approach, Hayok attempted to activate the [Bite] skill, intending to tear his opponent's vitals with his mouthful of sharp canine teeth.

However, in the world of martial arts, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken.

Xiao Huolong's fiery claws, imbued with the burning aura of his Blazing Technique, had already generated a surge of heat, striking Hayok's vulnerable jaw with precision from below like an arrow released from a bow.

"Ouch——"

A piercing howl ripped through the sky. Hayok, struck by the fire claws, was launched into the air by the immense impact. The dog tumbled and rolled, transforming into the Hayok Whirlwind. It drew a graceful parabola in the air, performing a backflip with a difficulty level of 10.0, and finally landed elegantly in the pond, splashing up huge waves.

"0 points, poor entry into the water, failed to minimize the splash."

Lying on the haystack, Mo Zhen leisurely commented on the battle.

After Xiao Huolong forcefully knocked away the first Hayok, it seemed to activate the [Deterrence] effect to kill the enemy. The remaining Hayoks scattered like frightened cockroaches and all retreated behind Coach Li.

This is the security effect: when a teammate is in a losing situation, the rejoining effect is automatically triggered.

Although the situation is tense, that's exactly what watchdogs are like.

After all... if someone fights to the death, can they still be called a security guard?

Why is it that even though everyone is wearing blue, people have awe for the police but disdain for the security guards? They should all know the answer to that.

However, these security guards who had been relegated to the second line did not give up the fight.

Upon returning to their unit, the Hayoks immediately unleashed the [Stare] skill on Xiao Huolong, while simultaneously providing [Help] to the security captain, Riolu.

In an instant, the tide of attack and defense turned. The entire Hayok team of the security brigade transformed into top-notch support players, setting up an ultimate one-on-one lineup with a score of 1:0:10, and initiating a ten-protect-one tactic.

"Woof woof woof woof—"

Amidst a unified bark, Riolu, as the captain of the security team, received the spiritual blessing of the Hayoks. At this moment, his domineering aura surged, became stronger, and exploded, making him 50% stronger than ever before!
At this moment, Riolu understood that the security team of Suanmu Farm had reached a critical juncture of life and death.

A team can't have everyone who's just coasting; there has to be at least one person who can step up and turn the tide in crucial moments.

If he, as the team leader, cannot stop this berserk lizard, the entire security team will face unemployment, and everyone will lose their livelihood.

As a seasoned professional, this blue dog knows that there is no job in the world more suitable for him than security guard.

This job is much more than just a job where you can just coast along and wait to die.

Dreams are such a thing...

Of course I have it!
My dream... is to be a security guard!

At that moment, Riolu's eyes suddenly hardened.

Mo Zhen's nonchalant expression suddenly turned extremely serious, because he saw Riolu's resolute eyes!

That's not the look of a lazy security guard, but the look of a dreamer!
With a resolute look in its eyes, Riolu strides into battle as if facing certain death.

Even a security guard has things he must protect!

Now is the time to fight for your dreams!
