Pet King

Chapter 485: Time to Wake Up

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Famous!"

Famous vaguely heard somebody calling its name. It was tired after fighting the wolves last night so it wanted to keep sleeping since it had nothing to do when it woke up.

"What's wrong, Old Time Tea? Why don't you call me Brother Famous anymore? Have you finally changed what you call me? After I've been telling you for so long?" it murmured without opening its eyes.

"We have to go, Famous, or we'll delay today's shooting."

Famous moved its ears. There's something wrong with its voice.

It suddenly opened its eyes and saw that Old Time Tea was sitting across from it with an ambiguous smile. Old Time Tea was laying on the windowsill, not the yellow futon in the shrine.

There was an empty teacup between it and Old Time Tea.

Famous stood up suddenly, shook its head and looked around blankly.

It was not in the shrine, it was on the second floor of the pet shop.

The room smelled like elves. Famous could hear Galaxy and the American Shorthair playing hide and seek downstairs. Snowy Lionet was still whispering about a "raw beef brisket," and the noisy Richard was teasing the elves and other pets.

Zhang Zian was dressed nicely. He had taken off his sportswear and put on his outdoor clothes. Carrying the backpack he usually took to set, he checked the time on his cellphone and waited for Famous.

"Where am I?" Famous didn't know what was real and what was a memory.

"Where are you?" Zhang Zian was confused by the strange question. "You're home. You didn't sleep well last night, but you fell asleep just now. I didn't want to wake you, but if we don't leave now, we'll delay today's shooting."

"Home…"

Famous thought about this meaningful term.

It pondered for a moment, then looked at Old Time Tea.

The Old Time Tea in front of it was older, calmer, and gentler than the brave and tough Old Time Tea from the memory. Logically, Famous knew that this was the same Old Time Tea. The only difference was that this Old Time Tea lacked the comradery of fighting side by side with Famous.

Old Time Tea watched it and asked, "Famous, were you talking in your dream? I've never called you Brother Famous before. I may have, if I knew you ten years ago."

Famous felt a sense of loss. It missed the way the other Old Time Tea called it "Brother Famous."

However, the Old Time Tea from the memory wouldn't go anywhere because it would always stay in Famous' heart. When Famous experienced new adventures in the real world, it will return to that world and tell Old Time Tea.

"I just had a dream. A long dream." It smiled casually and jumped off the windowsill. "I'll you about it when I have time."

Zhang Zian thought to himself. Famous took a nap for a few minutes, and woke up with a completely different mindset, as if it had matured in a blink of an eye. Its tone was also different, almost old-fashioned.

He did not have time to ask Famous what happened, so he just went downstairs with Famous.

Famous looked at the layout in the pet shop, its eyes sweeping over Galaxy, Fina, Snowy Lionet, Richard and Lu Yiyun. Although only a few minutes had passed in the real world, a whole year had passed in the spiritual world. The sudden shift from wilderness to civilization reminded Famous of how fast time flies.

Liu drove a police car and parked it in front of the pet shop. As soon as he saw Zhang Zian come out, he immediately greeted him excitedly, "Zhang, today is the day for test shooting, right? Wang and I have been training more with Red Dragon and Prince, especially for biting. I guarantee that bulls**t Mastiff King will be bitten so badly that its own mother won't even recognize it!"

Wang was sitting in the passenger seat, while Red Dragon and Prince were sitting in the back. Today, they had taken a leave from the base to go to the shooting location to assist, but mainly to beat the Mastiff King. Zhang Zian had informed Feng Xuan about the test shooting in advance.

Red Dragon and Prince were close friends with Famous. Although, when they saw Famous today, they stood alert in the backseat because they did not recognize it. They did not settle down until they had sniffed Famous.

The two police officers were confident, but Zhang Zian was very worried.

When they arrived at the location, Zhang Zian found it very strange that there were very few staff members outside. Even the security guards were not doing their jobs, they were staring at their phones.

"Hello, may I ask if there is any shooting today? Where is everyone?" Zhang Zian asked a security officer.

The security officer knew him since there weren't many people on the crew with dogs coming and going, so he said, "Zhang, don't you know? Master Old Yang is making Big Teeth fight the Mastiff King! Everyone has gone inside to watch the fun. I would have joined them, but I have to watch the door. Hey, I wasn't finished! "

Before he could finish, Famous jumped through the gate, followed by Zhang Zian and the two police officers.

Since he had to wait for Famous to wake up, Zhang Zian was a bit late today. The shooting didn't normally start at this time. Usually, the actors were in the middle of getting their makeup done, the director was giving the actors some last-minute notes on a scene, and the designers were working on the set. That's why he wasn't in a hurry today. Who'd have thought that Master Old Yang would let Big Teeth fight the Mastiff King without consulting him?

Famous didn't know why it suddenly moved, perhaps it wanted to be an hero, or perhaps it was impacted by Old Time Tea's chivalry. It just knew that it wasn't possible for Big Teeth to defeat the Mastiff King. If it didn't stop the fight in time, Famous worried that Big Teeth would get hurt, or worse.

When Famous ran, Red Dragon and Prince followed, breaking free from Liu and Wang. The three dogs ran towards the power grid, one after another.

There were a lot of people surrounding the power grid. Fortunately, Feng Xuan had set up a layer of barbed wire outside the power grid just in case someone was pushed onto the power grid.

Feng Xuan and Old Yang were standing at the entrance of the power grid with grave expressions.

There was no camera, but the pyrotechnician was standing on the lift. Holding an tranquilizer gun up to his face, one of eye closed, the other looking through the scope.

Inside the power grid was silent. Zhang Zian and the two police officers were blocked by people, so they couldn't see if the battle between Big Teeth and Mastiff King was over.

Famous and the two police dogs were extremely fast, leaving Zhang Zian and the two police officers far behind. The two police dogs stopped when they approached the barbed wire, while Famous ran faster. Famous jumped over the barbed wire and landed in the power grid.

The crowd was in uproar!

"Which dog is that? It jumped so high! It's practically a flying dog!"

"You don't recognize it? That's the dog that plays Lightning!"

"No! Why did Lightning jump in there? If it's hurt, we'll have to replace it!"

"It's okay if it's slightly injured, what I'm afraid is that..."

Feng Xuan and Old Yang were astonished. They had been concentrating on the interior of the venue, that neither of them expected Famous to be able to jump over the power grid. Feng Xuan was so shocked that he almost had a heart attack!

It was Old Yang's idea to let Big Teeth challenge the Mastiff King. He weighed his options repeatedly and decided that Big Teeth was the best choice to take the risk. Big Teeth was just a retired German Shepherd, it was less important than Famous and the two police dogs. If Big Teeth failed, there was no need for Famous and the two police dogs to try.

Feng Xuan agreed with his opinion. For Big Teeth's safety, he let the pyrotechnician prepare. If Big Teeth was defeated, the pyrotechnician would instantly shoot the Mastiff King with a tranquilizing dart.

The pyrotechnician was a former military engineer with sniper training. However, he was not a sharpshooter who had never missed a target, so it would be difficult for him to shoot a moving dog. If the first shot didn't hit the Mastiff King, then Big Teeth would be in danger. Judging from the bloodthirstiness of the Mastiff King, it would be difficult for Big Teeth to fight off an attack until the second tranquilizing dart was placed in the gun.

Of course, it would be a happy ending if Big Teeth defeated the Mastiff King.

The pyrotechnician asked for Feng Xuan's instructions through a headset, "Director Feng, how should I deal with this situation? Should I shoot the Mastiff King first?"

The Mastiff King was so fierce that no one dared to enter the area inside the power grid when it was conscious.

At this moment, Zhang Zian and the two police officers arrived out of breath.

Feng Xuan quickly said to Zhang Zian, "Tell Famous to get out of there!"

There nothing Zhang Zian could do because Famous chose to go in there to rescue Big Teeth. Even if he issued an order, he was afraid Famous wouldn't come out.

Liu and Wang took the two police dogs and proposed, "Should we let Red Dragon and Prince in? So that the three of them can fight the Mastiff King together?"

Old Yang cursed, "Nonsense! Do you think this is just a fight? It's a test of leadership, just like how monkeys in the mountains fight to be Monkey King. Have you ever seen a Monkey King chosen through because of a group fight?"

He raised his hand and everyone looked to where he was pointing. All the other Tibetan Mastiffs locked in their cages were focusing on the area inside ​​the power grid, obviously very concerned about the outcome of this battle.

Having been in the police dog training base for more than two decades, Old Yang was very familiar with canine habits. It was important to win in a one-on-one fight. Even if they won in a group fight, it was difficult to convince others that they were indeed the kings.

Everyone kept voicing their own suggestions. For Famous and Big Teeth's safety, Feng Xuan made the decision to knock the Mastiff King out with the tranquilizing dart.

Just then, a deafening roar burst throughout the venue.
