Chapter 582: I'll Leave You Here
Chapter 582: I'll Leave You Here
Bolts of glaring flames descended from the sky.
The moment Flame Rain struck, the entire sky seemed to ignite in red.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Deafening explosions echoed continuously, the dense rain of flames creating a breathtaking yet terrifying scene of destruction.
Flames danced, nearly engulfing all the Scaleshield Moths.
Amidst the chaotic flames, Fangy stood proudly with Qiao Sang on his back.
Despite the flames spreading across the sky, they did not touch the area around Fangy.
The commotion woke Nadapong, who had been unconscious.
He opened his eyes to witness this apocalyptic scene and promptly fainted again.
On the ground, the familiar that resembled a rock rolled frantically to avoid the Flame Rain.
Beneath the pond, a pair of sharp eyes slowly opened.
In the high sky, the Scaleshield Moths scattered in panic, flying in all directions.
However, the Flame Rain was too dense, and they were nearly wiped out instantly.
Despite the heavy rain of flames, some Scaleshield Moths still managed to reach the safe zone above Fangy.
They flapped their wings, scattering scales.
Steel Treasure, who had been quiet, quickly flapped his wings, and a dozen Air Blades shot through the scales, heading for the Scaleshield Moths above.
The Scaleshield Moths moved to evade.
Lulu, who had already turned her head, opened her mouth, and a visible chill burst forth.
The cold spread rapidly, freezing the Scaleshield Moths that were dodging the Air Blades one by one.
Although the Scaleshield Moths were gone, the scales they had released continued to fall.
Qiao Sang instinctively wanted to cover her head with her clothes, but she suddenly remembered that she had already been hit earlier and stopped.
Since she had already been affected, and with Lulu there, it didn't seem to matter if it got a bit worse. As she thought this, she saw the Beastmaster named Nadapong, with a peaceful expression, move to a position just five centimeters above her head, blocking the falling scales.
Qiao Sang was taken aback for a moment, then realized something and looked at Treasure Seeker.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker, sensing his Beastmaster's gaze, gave a determined look with his glowing blue eyes, as if to say, "Don't worry, I've got this."
Qiao Sang was touched by Treasure Seeker's attentiveness.
But the next second, she remembered something.
Wait, you used Psychic Power to control Nadapong, what about Lulu... Qiao Sang's heart raced as she quickly looked at Lulu.
Lulu didn't fall but continued to hover in the air.
Qiao Sang was confused. What's going on?
"Yah!"
At that moment, Fangy called out.
Qiao Sang instantly understood. Fangy had taken over from Treasure Seeker, using Psychic Power to keep Lulu aloft.
I didn't even command them, and they're already this coordinated... Qiao Sang thought, feeling reassured.
By the time the Flame Rain ceased, only a few scattered Scaleshield Moths remained in the sky.
"Lilin!"
The Scaleshield Moths glared at Fangy, seemingly undeterred by the recent Mars Rain.
Qiao Sang, looking at them, recalled a phrase her teacher had once said in class:
"Some familiar races are particularly united. If their companions are injured, they will attack without fear, even if the opponent is hundreds of times stronger. These familiars generally have low intelligence and find it difficult to learn complex skills. Be cautious if you want to bond with such familiars."
Qiao Sang shook off the thought and prepared to command Lulu to launch the final attack.
Just then, the surface of the pond began to shake violently.
"Lilin!"
The Scaleshield Moths, as if responding to some terrifying presence, turned and flew away.
"Ganggang!"
Steel Treasure also sensed something and called out, his expression serious, signaling to leave quickly.
Qiao Sang looked at Steel Treasure, startled.
Steel Treasure's face was swollen, looking like a pig's head.
Qiao Sang immediately recalled the scene where the Scaleshield Moths had surrounded them, and Steel Treasure had been inside...
Her face wouldn't be the same as Steel Treasure's, would it...
And Fangy...
"Ganggang!"
Steel Treasure couldn't bear to see its Beastmaster lost in thought at such a critical moment.
It was about to flap its wings and tap its Beastmaster's head as a reminder when Qiao Sang timely said,
"I know."
Even though it was her first mission in the Supernest, she knew what to expect.
In such situations, there was definitely a big boss lurking beneath the Pond.
"Ganggang?"
Seeing the Pond shaking more violently, Steel Treasure grew anxious. Why weren't they leaving yet?
"Treasure Seeker, can you do it?" Qiao Sang looked at Treasure Seeker.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker understood what its Beastmaster was asking and nodded seriously.
"Let's go!" As she spoke, Qiao Sang waved her hand, recalling Fangy, Lulu, and Steel Treasure into the Beastmaster Codex.
Treasure Seeker's eyes glowed with blue light.
In the next second, Qiao Sang and Treasure Seeker, who were about to fall from the sky, instantly disappeared.
Qu Zhuo, riding on the Waveeye Hawk, arrived just in time to see Qiao Sang vanish.
At that moment, the violently shaking Pond slowly revealed a massive head with a large triangular sky-blue crown on its forehead, a protruding chin, and a thick ring of blue beard.
Qu Zhuo's eyes met the Springwater Kui's as it emerged from the Pond.
At that instant, the word "crap" echoed repeatedly in Qu Zhuo's mind.
...
Qiao Sang opened her eyes and found herself in a lush thicket.
A three-eyed spider familiar slowly crawled past her.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker quickly floated in front of its Beastmaster, spreading its arms protectively.
The three-eyed spider familiar glanced at Treasure Seeker, then withdrew its gaze and continued its slow crawl forward.
Treasure Seeker: "..."
At that moment, Qiao Sang smiled.
"I didn't expect you to be able to teleport so many people at once."
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker instantly forgot its previous mood and proudly puffed out its chest, indicating that it was no big deal.
Previously, when Treasure Seeker used Spatial Shift, it had only transferred one target. During the urgent situation with the Scaleshield Moth, she hadn't thought much and issued the command, only to find out that Treasure Seeker had indeed teleported both the mission giver and her daughter. This time, it had teleported her, Nadapong, his familiar, and Mular.
Hmm? Mular?
Qiao Sang thought of this and quickly looked to the side.
Soon, she spotted Mular, about two meters away, looking shaken.
Then Qiao Sang realized something and formed the hand seals, summoning Fangy, Lulu, and Steel Treasure one after another.
"Yah!"
Fangy, seeing the danger had passed, wagged its tail and barked happily.
Qiao Sang's lips twitched as she looked at Fangy.
The situation had been urgent, and she had been on Fangy's back the whole time, so she only now saw Fangy's front.
Fangy's head was swollen with red spots, not as severe as Steel Treasure's, but its usual handsome appearance was gone.
Strangely, Qiao Sang felt a bit of admiration for Lulu.
To remain so calm in the face of Fangy and Steel Treasure's current state...
If Qiao Sang could see her own face, she would realize that she was the worst off.
"Healing Light", Qiao Sang said.
"Icechill."
Lulu called out, and the gem on its forehead glowed with blue light, illuminating Qiao Sang's body.
When the blue light faded, Qiao Sang's redness and swelling subsided, and her face was once again clear and restored to its original state.
"Xunxun!"
Seeing this, Treasure Seeker excitedly floated around its Beastmaster in a circle.
As Lulu finished healing Fangy and Steel Treasure and was about to use Healing Light on Nadapong, Qiao Sang said,
"Let's skip that."
"Icechill."
Lulu quickly withdrew the blue light.
Now that Mular was far away, the mission was essentially complete. This place seemed quite far from the mission giver's home. Qiao Sang thoughtfully looked at Mular and asked,
"Can I leave you here?"
