# Chapter 1086: New Friend! Fat Orange
What do you mean you went off to catch a spy cat?
And you went wandering into the uninhabited zone?
The uninhabited zone is so dangerous now, and you dared to run in there with that useless Yuan?
Xia Yao rushed into the operations command room like a small whirlwind!
(‧̣̥̇ᵒ̌﹏ᵒ̌) "Secretary-General! Xiao Nan ran away from home! He eloped with Sister Zi Yuan!"
Yang Jian was stunned: "What's going on?"
But when he saw the note, his expression turned strange!
Could it be that Zi Yuan had another key vision, and they just acted on it directly?
"With Jiangnan's skills, nothing will go wrong. Just wait patiently!"
Maybe he'd bring back some kind of surprise!
Xia Yao clutched the note, looking troubled!
(・᷄~・᷅) She wasn't worried about Xiao Nan getting into trouble; the elopement was the real issue, okay?
Wang Dalei's eyes twitched: "A Platinum rank roaming around in the uninhabited zone? Nothing will go wrong? Only Jiangnan could make Brother Jian say something like that!"
...
Three days later, Fat Orange dashed through the uninhabited zone like the wind!
Zi Yuan excitedly rode on Fat Orange's back, her hair flying in the wind~
ヾ(❀╹ꇴ╹)ノ~ "Ya hoo~ I'm someone with backing now! From now on, if anyone says I'm useless, I'll have Fat Orange bite them to death!"
As she spoke, she kept raising her eyebrows at Jiangnan.
(๑◔╰╯◔ิ๑)
Jiangnan was currently rubbing his head, looking miserable.
Who knows how many wine bottles he'd smashed against his own head over these three days!
His head was covered in big red bumps!
He had to find a way to solve the itching problem; otherwise, the Didiwei was completely unusable!
It itched so much he wanted to tear his skin off!
Hmm? Tear skin?
Jiangnan seemed to have found another bug he could exploit. He'd have to try it sometime!
"Hey? Speaking of which, what did you wrap up in that animal skin? So precious you won't even let me see it?"
Fat Orange: !!!
"Not showing you! If you dare peek, I won't let you ride me!"
"Ahem~ Seriously now, the Ghost Beast Legion might not all follow my commands. After all, most spirit beasts really dislike humans."
Zi Yuan snickered quietly. A distraction technique, huh?
Jiangnan grinned: "Just do what you can. I've given them a path; they'll choose for themselves."
They charged all the way back to the North District. Fat Orange let out a beastly roar, summoning the Ghost Beast Legion for another meeting!
Hundreds of beasts gathered, but when they saw Jiangnan and Zi Yuan standing beside Fat Orange, they immediately became vigilant!
"Dammit? Humans found this place? Boss, bite them to death!"
"Hmph! Does Boss even need to get involved? I'll do it for her!"
The beasts roared to the heavens, and even the Day Cloud Tigers frowned, baring their fangs!
But Fat Orange let out a tiger roar, and the entire place fell silent. No beast dared to speak anymore!
"I've decided to cooperate with humans. Help them plant the vines, clear out other beast legions."
"Those willing to follow me, stay. Those who don't want to follow me, leave."
"But I can tell you clearly: humans will eventually completely suppress the uninhabited zone. No matter how much we struggle, that won't change."
"Maybe three years, maybe five years from now, nine out of ten beasts standing here will be gone. This is the trend of the times. We can't change it. If we can't beat them, we have to join them."
The moment these words were spoken, the beast legion exploded!
"Bullshit! You want us to be humans' pawns? No way! We'll fight to the death!"
"Traitor! We trusted Boss so much, and now she's become a human's lapdog!"
"I knew it. She's always hanging around the human base. Was she really undercover? She's already joined the humans!"
"Ptooey! She's been brainwashed by these two humans! Bite them to death! Brothers, charge!"
At this moment, thousands of beasts roared, eyes bloodshot as they stared at Jiangnan and the others!
Fat Orange's expression darkened. She meant well; she wanted them to live. Why couldn't they understand her...
Jiangnan patted Fat Orange gently. Although he'd expected resistance, he didn't think it would be this intense!
Just then, Old Tiger Granny stepped forward and roared: "Enough! All of you, shut up!"
The boiling beast legion was suppressed again!
Old Tiger Granny's face was dark, her eyes fixed on Fat Orange.
"Do you know what you're saying? As the leader of the beast legion, every decision you make determines life or death for them!"
"Are you really choosing to do this?"
Fat Orange's expression was serious: "Grandma taught me since I was young how to be a worthy king. I've been leading the beast legion, struggling to survive in the uninhabited zone."
"And this is my final answer!"
Old Tiger Granny was silent for a long time, then finally smiled calmly: "The little girl has grown up! I'm leaving the tiger pack to you!"
She silently walked to Fat Orange's side. Her actions already showed her stance!
Everything for survival. Old Tiger Granny supported Fat Orange's decision!
With Old Tiger Granny's move, the entire Day Cloud Tiger clan stood with her!
But the beast legion was still filled with curses, spitting, and throwing shit!
Just then, Big Macaque stood up: "All of you, shut the hell up! Let me ask you one thing!"
"Without Boss, would any of you still be alive? You'd have been hunted and roasted by other beast legions long ago!"
"How many times has Boss ever screwed you over? Be a beast with some conscience!"
Big Macaque's words quieted the crowd considerably!
Mountain Sable gritted his teeth: "Without Boss, I'd be dead long ago. I don't care about the rest of you, I'm sticking with Boss!"
He led his beasts to stand behind Fat Orange! With someone taking the lead, a third of the beast legion immediately supported Fat Orange's decision!
They were all loyal followers!
Fat Orange felt a warmth in her heart!
But Jiangnan stepped forward and announced loudly:
"The green vines will eventually cover the entire uninhabited zone. The weak beasts will be the first to be purged!"
"Fat Orange is fighting for a chance for you to live. Cooperate with humans! Want territory? You'll have it! Want food and spirit beads? There are plenty of spirit beasts waiting for you to hunt!"
"Worried about humans settling scores later? No need! Humans want the uninhabited zone stable, and you'll help maintain order there! Shared interests!"
"So why do you have to fight to the death? Isn't a win-win situation better?"
After Jiangnan's long speech, many more beast legions joined Fat Orange!
Fat Orange announced loudly: "Those who don't want to follow me, I won't force you. But if we meet again, we'll be enemies!"
Jiangnan said calmly: "You can also choose to join the Hellhound Beast Legion. They should be the last to be cleansed."
"Try to be one of the ones that survive to the end!"
The smart beasts naturally saw the current situation clearly. In the end, two-thirds of the Ghost Beast Legion followed Fat Orange!
The remaining third firmly held their ground!
Fat Orange let out a long breath: "More than I expected!"
Jiangnan grinned: "Let's go! Time to go back and finish what we started!"
...
At the main base, Yang Jian was still worrying about the planting!
Although they'd adopted the water wave diffusion method, the results were still not significant!
The number of spirit beasts in the uninhabited zone had accumulated to a terrifying degree. Every day, some broke through the vine forest walls!
Just then, alarms blared throughout the main base. Countless Dragon Abyss Dark Night soldiers rushed to battle positions!
Dark cannon muzzles swiveled, aimed at the uninhabited zone!
Nightingale burst into the command room!
(٥•̆口•̆) "Secretary-General! It's bad! A large-scale beast tide is charging the base! It doesn't belong to any known beast legion! It's coming from the North District!"
"The leader is actually a Dao Heaven Rank Day Cloud Tiger!"
Yang Jian's eyes widened, and he sucked in a cold breath!
"Hiss~ Dao Heaven Rank? Besides the Green Vine, there's actually a Dao Heaven Rank spirit beast in the uninhabited zone?"
"At a time like this, how did another mess crop up?"
He immediately rushed out!
Seeing the pitch-black sea of beasts and the Day Cloud Tiger standing over a hundred meters tall, Yang Jian's expression darkened!
Currently, Wang Dalei was the only one at the base. The other Dao Heaven Ranks were out planting!
They'd probably have a tough fight ahead!
Guan Tai: "Beast legion approaching firing range! Spirit-Binding Electromagnetic Cannon charging!"
But to everyone's surprise, the massive beast legion actually stopped?
Yang Jian's third eye opened, looking toward the beast legion. Was there someone on top of that Dao Heaven Rank Day Cloud Tiger?
Zi Yuan was waving frantically!
"Don't attack! Don't fire! They're on our side!"
Before Yang Jian could even process what was happening, Jiangnan suddenly appeared on the city wall!
"Brothers! No need to be nervous! This is an ally I brought us! The Ghost Beast Legion from the North District! From now on, they're fighting with us!"
Yang Jian's eyes bulged, smashing his glasses lenses!
Σ(ଵДଵ‧̣̥̇) "Huh? What did you say?"
This... this...
A Dao Heaven Rank Day Cloud Tiger leading a beast legion, and you brought them as allies?
Weren't you going to catch a spy cat? How did you...
Not only Yang Jian, but all the Dragon Abyss Dark Night soldiers were stunned!
This was the first time they'd encountered a large beast legion without a fight breaking out!
Fat Orange's massive body leaped over and landed heavily on the city wall!
Zi Yuan jumped down excitedly: "Let me introduce you! Our new friend, Fat Orange!"
Wang Dalei was trembling: "She's a Dao Heaven Rank spirit beast! Could you give her a less casual name?"
Fat Orange glared at Jiangnan fiercely, then rapidly shrank her massive body!
She returned to her fat orange form, landed on Jiangnan's head, and started scratching wildly!
"It's all your fault! What kind of crappy name is that? I'll scratch you to death!"
Now Wang Dalei's jaw hit the floor. He pointed at Fat Orange, stammering: "Wha... what the hell! You... you... aren't you that stray cat? How did you... it... hiss~"
"Holy shit!"
Thousands of words condensed into one holy shit!
Fat Orange said smugly: "What? Don't recognize me?"
Wang Dalei clutched his head, feeling like his world was falling apart!
So this big cat had been at the base all along? Undercover?
So that's what Jiangnan meant by a spy cat!
At this moment, every Dragon Abyss Dark Night soldier at the base stared dumbfounded at Fat Orange!
They couldn't believe that the stray cat that had been mooching around here for four or five years was actually a Dao Heaven Rank spirit beast!
Jiangnan grinned: "The uninhabited zone should finally be calming down."
