Start as a Spiritual Planter: I Have a Game Panel

Chapter 61: Small Misunderstanding I

Not far from where Ram waited, Liam cruised along on an old hoverbike. It looked like a regular motorbike, though it hovered just above the ground.

"Each time we escape, it gets harder to stay hidden," he muttered, glancing down at the black puppy sitting in front of him.

The only change this time was that the dog had grown bigger since the night before but still wore the same playful grin.

This beat-up hoverbike was a basic model, used by low-level gang members for small jobs.

Unlike advanced hover bikes, this one is equipped with old-school mechanical steering, basic thrusters for aerial lift, acceleration, and basic flight control, with a top speed of 120 mph.

Liam had stolen it when he snuck out, this time he wanted to stay far away from that woman.

After being caught last night, he had been forced to work all night to satisfy her.

Sure, he absorbed a lot of Spiritual power from her emotions, but being a sex slave wasn't exactly his idea of fun.

"Little Black, you better not sell me out again for food pills like yesterday," Liam joked, rubbing the puppy's head.

He had no intention of taking the dog along, but ever since he found it, the dog became very attached to him and refused to stray far.

Left with no other choice, he had to bring it along.

"Awf, Bow-wow!" Little Black barked happily, enjoying the wind blowing towards its face.

He remembered clearly how small and frail it was when he found it next to a dumpster, the little creature had followed him everywhere, growing stronger and bigger with each passing day.

Upon closer inspection, Liam discovered that it was a 'mutant dog'— and it seemed to have awakened a special bloodline.

Being perfectly compatible with his Hunter profession, he decided to raise it as his pet.

The peaceful ride didn't last long. Out of nowhere, a huge boulder the size of a water tank came flying toward him.

With quick reflexes, Liam swerved the hoverbike to the side, narrowly avoiding the rock.

But the sudden movement threw him off balance, and before he knew it, he was crashing into the woods.

Everything happened so fast and the last thing he saw was a massive, bear-like creature with glowing red eyes.

"Boom!" Liam hit the ground hard, rolling to cushion the impact, holding Little Black tightly to his chest.

Blood trickled from his head as pain shot through his body, but he was alive thanks to his strong physique.

The hoverbike, however, was not so lucky—it had slammed into the ground and broken into a shower of metal debris, sending up a cloud of dust and smoke.

Ram, who was engrossed in training, heard the sudden noise.

He hurriedly stopped his practice with Ling'er and dashed toward the source of the explosion.

Although he was unsure of what the cause of sudden explosion, something told him this was connected to Liam.

"Who dares to sneak attack me?" Liam yelled into the woods, turning to Little Black, who had remained surprisingly calm.

The puppy's ears twitched, and it let out a low growl, as though it detected something afar.

As the smoke cleared, he scrambled to his feet, groaning from the pain. The woods were eerily quiet, except for the crackling of his ruined hoverbike.

He glanced around, trying to figure out what had hit him. Then he saw it—the figure emerging from the shadows.

It was massive, towering over him, with thick, blood-red fur-covered limbs and a hunched, muscular frame.

Its glowing red eyes locked onto Liam, filled with an animalistic rage.

It was Sid who used his transformation ability to morph into a humanoid bear and threw the boulder towards Liam.

As soon as he spotted the old hoverbike, he launched an attack, determined to prevent any gang members from discovering their secret hideout.

"Who the hell are you? Why did you attack me?" Liam demanded furiously, swiping at the blood dribbling down his forehead.

His hand moved to the small blade hidden on his thigh, preparing for a confrontation.

Little Black, aware of the impending threat, hunkered down, emitting a deep growl from its throat.

"You deaf or something? I asked you a question!" Liam snapped, his voice carrying over the sound of the wind rustling through the trees.

He was sure that this was not a monster beast but a human, over the years he had seen many such transformation abilities.

Sid, in his bear-like form, didn't respond with words. Instead, he lowered his head and let out another ear-splitting roar, shaking the branches above.

Without warning, he charged toward Liam, his massive paws thudding against the forest floor, each step reverberating like thunder.

Liam barely had time to react. "Is that all you got, furball?" he taunted, rolling out of the way just in time, narrowly avoiding Sid's powerful swipe.

With the help of enhanced reflexes, Liam slashed with his blade, aiming for Sid's exposed side.

But Sid was just as quick, twisting his large body out of the way and countering with a heavy backhand that sent Liam stumbling backward.

"Not bad for a brute," Liam muttered through gritted teeth, wiping blood from his mouth as he regained his balance.

Little Black darted around the two fighters, barking wildly, its small form almost comical in the midst of such a dangerous fight.

"Roar," Sid advanced again with another roar, faster than Liam expected for his size.

He swung another massive paw at Liam, who ducked just in time, the wind from the blow ruffling his hair.

Liam went in for another strike with his blade, but Sid blocked it with his arm, barely flinching as the blade scraped against his thick fur.

Then he responded with a swift, powerful punch that connected with Liam's midsection, sending him flying back into a nearby tree.

"Ugh!" Liam coughed as he hit the tree trunk, the impact momentarily knocking the wind out of him.

His vision blurred for a second, but he quickly steadied himself, refusing to back down.

"I've had worse from old ladies," with a fierce growl, he pushed off the tree and charged back at Sid, his blade flashing as he aimed for Sid's throat.

"Let's see how you like this!"
