"Wah!"
Just then, Mawile, who had been staying at the back all along, suddenly cried out.
"Hm?" Cheng Tian turned around and saw Mawile watching him with great interest. Only then did he remember that their battle was still unfinished.
"Um... sorry, Mawile. We're not in very good shape right now, and we're all exhausted..." Cheng Tian said apologetically. "Could we challenge you again tomorrow?"
He felt rather uneasy as he said this. After all, the Z-Crystal was in Mawile's hands, and whether to give it to them was entirely up to Mawile. Whether to accept their challenge also depended on Mawile's wishes...
Just then, Mawile suddenly tossed something over. Cheng Tian instinctively caught it and took a look-it was a Steel-type Z-Crystal!
"Huh?! We got it just like that?" Su Han said in surprise.
"Is this really okay?" Cheng Tian hesitated. "We don't have to beat you in battle or anything? Is that really all right?"
"Wah, wah." Mawile waved impatiently, seemingly not caring about that at all.
With that, Mawile turned to leave, only to stop halfway and retrace those steps.
"Wah."
Mawile pointed at the unconscious man lying on the ground over there. Su Han paused. "You want to take him away?"
"Wah." Mawile nodded.
"But... what use do you have for him...?" Cheng Tian couldn't help muttering in puzzlement, but he still didn't interfere, leaving Mawile to act freely.
Mawile clamped the huge jaws on the back of that head around one of the man's feet, then dragged him over to Steelix, who was lying on the ground, and gave Steelix an irritated kick.
Steelix stopped playing dead and eagerly scurried ahead to clear the way.
"Wah!" Before leaving, Mawile waved to the two of them, then dragged the man off without a backward glance.
"Goodbye..."
