"That unremarkable Honkai Beast is mine." After thinking for a moment, Rik chose to answer honestly.
Rik's first instinct had been to choose the golden one.
Don't find that strange. Rik lived during the Thousand-Year War, where humanity's most urgent goal was survival, so no resource could be wasted.
But considering that this was a peaceful era, where honesty and trustworthiness were supposedly the main themes, he painfully made that choice.
"Congratulations, honest child. All three golden Honkai Beasts are yours." With a wave of Chen Luo's hand, the three Honkai Beasts were stored inside Poké Balls and landed in front of Rik.
These Poké Balls really could store Honkai Beasts, and they worked in reality as well, but they were not genuine Poké Balls.
Chen Luo really had drawn Poké Balls as rewards before, but their effects were not very good. They could not capture Yakumo Yukari or Yae Miko.
These Poké Balls, however, were spatial storage tools Chen Luo had reverse-engineered through the card used to store Black Jeanne d'Arc, with Chen Gong's help.
Although the cost of each ball was not low, with Void Archive, they could now be manufactured cheaply.
"As expected." After accepting the three Poké Balls, Rik was quite pleased that his prediction had been correct.
"Don't 'as expected' me. If I hadn't wanted to give them to you, I would've just said, 'Oh, then I'll give you this ordinary Honkai Beast.' The point of this question wasn't whether you answered correctly. The point was whether I wanted to give them to you. Hurry up and thank Mr. River God."
"Thank you, Mr. River God," Hubie said.
"Good girl. Here, have this loli lollipop." Chen Luo handed Hubie a loli lollipop.
"By the way, how are your companions' injuries coming along?" Chen Luo asked
