Chapter 716: Sandland Wyrm
Chapter 716: Sandland Wyrm
The sudden snowfall had already halted.
But it was too late. Qiao Sang's entire body was covered in Ice Blossoms, freezing her in place like an ice sculpture.
"Icechill!"
Lulu's face changed dramatically as she anxiously circled around her Beastmaster.
The lingering despair from the past two days had affected Lulu, making her emotions more volatile and unable to remain as calm as before.
"Xunxun!"
The Treasure Seeker, who had instinctively teleported outside the snowfall range upon sensing something wrong, teleported back. It extended its claws and called out, signaling not to worry, as it had a plan.
With that, it raised its claws.
A thick, white energy instantly condensed on its claws.
Ah, it wasn't real snow after all, but the Frostflower Seal cast by Lulu... Damn! Wait! Stop! You're going to use Tile Split? Just have Lulu use Healing Light! Don't use Tile Split! Qiao Sang's mind was filled with curses, her inner voice screaming.
Though she was frozen and unable to move, her consciousness remained clear.
She could still think and see everything happening outside her ice shell.
When she saw the Treasure Seeker preparing to use Tile Split, she almost spat blood.
What if it goes wrong and splits her apart?!
Just as Qiao Sang's mind was on the verge of collapsing, the sandy ground suddenly exploded, and four thick, snake-like Thorny Vines shot out, lunging at Lulu and the Treasure Seeker.
"Xunxun!"
The Treasure Seeker had to stop its Tile Split action. It quickly cast two shadows with its claws, binding its frozen Beastmaster and teleporting them ten meters away, evading the Thorny Vines' attack.
"Icechill!"
Lulu swiftly took two steps back, a cold light appearing as her claw blades crossed, precisely cutting the Thorny Vines in front of her.
The Thorny Vines fell to the ground.
Lulu's expression turned angry as she looked at the three figures approaching from the sky, recognizing one of them as the one she had attacked earlier.
Though she didn't know their names, she was almost moved to tears.
"Yinyin!"
"Yinyin!"
The green familiar in the center, smaller than the other two, called out like a child reporting a grievance.
"Yinyin."
The two older green familiars grew increasingly angry as they listened.
Their wings swept backward simultaneously, causing a fierce gale to rise, sweeping away the surrounding plants.
Within a few hundred meters, smaller wild beast companions, clearly of lower intermediate rank, were frightened and fled.
Then, a green light radiated from their bodies, and they dove down from the sky in unison.
"Icechill!"
Lulu didn't retreat, her eyes fixed on the two approaching familiars as a massive wave of water surged around her.
But just then, the two green familiars, as they dove down, seemed to sense something. Their breathing suddenly quickened, and they halted their attack, hovering in mid-air without a sound.
Before Lulu stood a familiar about six meters tall, mostly gray-black in color with a golden crown on its head, radiating a powerful aura, coldly watching them.
Well, Dark Shadow... it does look the part... Qiao Sang mused, looking at the massive figure before her.
"Icechill..."
Lulu recognized the figure, pausing for a moment as the water around her dissipated. She turned to look at the normal-sized Treasure Seeker beside her Beastmaster.
"Xunxun~"
The Treasure Seeker winked at Lulu, giving her a look that said, "Don't worry, I've got this."
Lulu: "..."
"Yinyin..."
The two green familiars looked at the massive figure below with apprehension. After assessing the strength of their opponent, they decisively turned and flew away.
"Yinyin!"
The smaller green familiar quickly followed suit.
"Icechill..."
Lulu watched the three green familiars fly away, her mind involuntarily questioning itself.
I really am too weak.
The Treasure Seeker didn’t even need to show its true strength to scare the other party away.
And as for me... Lulu glanced at her frozen Beastmaster, feeling even more dejected.
Lulu! Use Healing Light! Use Healing Light! Qiao Sang felt a surge of excitement when Lulu looked at her.
At that moment, the enlarged Ghost Ring King dissipated, and the Treasure Seeker raised its claws again, with white, thick energy instantly condensing.
Qiao Sang: “?!!!”
Ah! Treasure Seeker! Stop! Stop!
In extreme panic, Qiao Sang saw the Treasure Seeker halt its downward swing.
Phew... Qiao Sang heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, it seems the Treasure Seeker still has some mental connection with her.
After all, she had been raising it since it hatched, and being a Psychic Type, it has a much stronger perception than other familiars. Even without a Bond Evolution, it usually understands her intentions with just a glance... Qiao Sang felt a strange sense of comfort.
The next moment, she noticed the Treasure Seeker looking up at her and Lulu with a serious expression.
Hey, what are you looking at? Can you turn around so she can see too? Qiao Sang was extremely curious.
She could sense that the atmosphere seemed different.
It felt like something was behind her, completely enveloping her in its shadow.
Unfortunately, she was frozen and couldn’t even move her eyeballs.
In the silence, the Treasure Seeker removed a Ring, took out the Familiar Identifier, and aimed it at the direction behind her Beastmaster.
A voice similar to the Treasure Seeker’s followed:
“Let me see... Sandland Wyrm, a Ground and Dragon type King-level familiar, very playful. Despite its high intelligence, it only thinks about causing trouble, making it a very troublesome familiar. However, once it evolves into an Imperial Tier familiar, the Dragon Twins, it will become much more stable... Oh, how did you encounter it? I suggest you run or surrender... Of course, if you must battle, please put me away first.”
“Xunxun...” The Treasure Seeker put the Familiar Identifier back into the Ring with a serious expression.
“Shalü.”
Behind Qiao Sang, a familiar with a deep brown body, black fur around its neck, two rows of black patterns on its belly, and red pupils, stood about ten meters tall, watching the Treasure Seeker and the Ice Blossom-covered Qiao Sang with interest.
“Icechill...”
A powerful aura pressed down, and even though the Sandland Wyrm hadn’t done anything yet, Lulu felt an unprecedented sense of danger.
Her heart rate sped up, and she instinctively moved to stand in front of her Beastmaster.
A King-level familiar, the Sandland Wyrm?!
Is it related to the Dragon Twins, the rulers of the Barzai Mountains?
Qiao Sang was stunned.
She never expected a King-level familiar to appear behind her!
At that moment, the Treasure Seeker’s eyes glowed blue.
Qiao Sang’s view was clear enough to see this.
She realized the Treasure Seeker was about to use Spatial Shift and quietly let out a sigh of relief, secretly grateful that Fangy wasn’t outside when she was frozen. Otherwise, Fangy’s first reaction would definitely not have been to run...
As she thought this, her vision went dark, and when it returned, the scene around her had changed.
At the same time, the Sandland Wyrm, seeing the intruders disappear, wore an expression that said, “Indeed, this is interesting.”
“Shalü!!!”
Then, the Sandland Wyrm raised its head and let out a thunderous roar.
The sound echoed over the Barzai Mountains.
In the next second, almost all the familiars in the mountains, who had been sleeping, opened their eyes.
