Chapter 856: Solving the Wastewater?
Lulu!
The scene before her nearly brought tears of relief to Qiao Sang's eyes.
While she had no doubt that Lulu's Healing Light could heal Yuan Jiewen and Bladeclaw, whether Lulu could successfully heal them within the effective time was uncertain, especially since Treasure Seeker had failed to cast Spatial Shift twice.
Lulu's Frost Haven was simply incredible, not only stopping the Blazing Bomb but also freezing Weak Pig King and Hydroknight in place, allowing Treasure Seeker to cast Spatial Shift without any hindrance. Lulu was undoubtedly the Mvp of this team battle!
Opportunity was fleeting, and time was of the essence.
Qiao Sang immediately said, “Let's go!”
“Xunxun!”
Treasure Seeker grabbed Channel Frog's claws, its eyes glowing with Blue Light.
At the same time, a faint sound of ice shells cracking came from Hydroknight's body.
In the next second, the group disappeared from the spot.
The temperature around them returned to normal, and the ice shells shattered completely.
“Water Festival!”
Hydroknight, watching the intruders vanish, roared in anger.
A powerful aura spread out.
The Water-type Companion Beasts in the Pond emerged from the water.
“Weak Weak…”
Weak Pig King, who had been disdainful just a moment ago, now shivered uncontrollably, breaking out in a cold sweat.
...
On the other side.
In the forest.
Looking at the dense tree canopies and the occasional Intermediate Wild Beast Companion that appeared, Qiao Sang heaved a huge sigh of relief.
She turned to Lulu and said sincerely, “Lulu, we really owe you this time.”
“Ice Ai.”
Lulu flicked its tail, indicating that it was just doing its job.
“Xunxun~”
Treasure Seeker tossed Channel Frog to the ground, took off the Ring, and pulled out a B-Class Energy Restorative, considerately handing it over.
“Ice Ai.”
Lulu extended its claws to take the bottle, opened it, and started drinking greedily.
The Frost Haven had indeed drained most of its energy.
“Fangy!”
Fangy, thinking back to the battle, was in a foul mood.
It felt it had been useless in the fight.
It couldn't blame itself for being unable to defeat the creature in the water, but even breaking the Barrier had almost turned into an attack on the humans...
“Steel Treasure, check the surroundings. If any powerful Wild Beast Companions approach, let me know,” Qiao Sang said cautiously.
“Steel Slash.”
Steel Treasure nodded, then gradually shrank in size and flew up into the sky.
“Are you alright?” Qiao Sang turned to ask the Big Client.
Migala put away her complicated expression and replied, “I'm fine.”
Honestly, she was surprised.
She hadn't expected Qiao Sang to resolve such a crisis and escape smoothly.
And they had all made it out unharmed...
That Hydroknight was clearly not at the early Royal Tier, yet Iceapura's Frost Haven had managed to control it for over three seconds.
Could the Frost Haven already be at a level above Novice?
Seeing that the Big Client was fine, Qiao Sang felt relieved and remembered the task at hand. She looked at Treasure Seeker and said, “Wake them up.”
“Xunxun~”
Treasure Seeker extended its tongue and licked Yuan Jiewen, Bladeclaw, and Channel Frog's faces heavily.
The human and two beasts shivered and gradually woke up.
Yuan Jiewen opened his eyes, sat up, and, upon seeing the surroundings, his previously dazed mind instantly cleared.
He looked at his arms and legs, then at Bladeclaw, and exclaimed in delight, “Boss, I knew it was right to trust you! You brought us out without a scratch!”
“Shell Blade.”
Bladeclaw nodded, displaying a look of agreement.
No, you were almost critically injured, and that was under Fangy's attack... Qiao Sang felt a bit guilty. Just as she was about to speak, a glance out of the corner of her eye caught a silhouette that seemed to be tiptoeing away like a thief. She immediately straightened up and said:
"Treasure Seeker, don’t let that frog get away."
"Qu qu!"
Channel Frog was startled, and water began to condense around its body as it prepared to make a quick escape.
But at that moment, a Shadow from the ground spread rapidly and wrapped around its legs with lightning speed.
"Qu qu!"
Channel Frog tumbled to the ground.
"Do you remember this person?" Qiao Sang approached Channel Frog, crouched down, and took out her mobile phone. She opened Liu Bo's photo and held it in front of the frog.
Channel Frog tightly shut its mouth, glared at Qiao Sang, and turned its head to the side, refusing to speak.
"Boss, let me pry its mouth open", Yuan Jiewen said, preparing to use a hand seal.
"No need", Qiao Sang waved her hand and looked at Treasure Seeker: "Hypnosis."
Hypnosis, when proficiency is high enough, can be used in various ways. Besides making the target fall asleep or influencing their dreams, it can also hypnotize them to speak the truth unconsciously.
"Xun xun~"
Treasure Seeker moved its claws.
The Shadow binding Channel Frog's feet instantly extended upward and forcibly turned its head.
"Qu qu..."
Channel Frog struggled desperately but couldn't resist the Shadow's strength.
Soon, it saw a pair of purple eyes.
Channel Frog's eyes gradually became vacant.
"Do you remember this person?" Qiao Sang placed the mobile phone screen in front of Channel Frog and asked again.
"Qu qu."
Channel Frog looked at the screen, stared at it expressionlessly for two seconds, and nodded.
Yes, it remembered.
"Ya ya."
Fangy acted as the translator.
"Where did you take him?" Qiao Sang asked next.
"Qu qu."
Channel Frog's voice was hollow as it called out.
To the water.
How could it be the water? Wasn't it in the forest? Could there be a water source in the forest... Qiao Sang frowned slightly and continued: "Is he dead?"
"Qu qu."
Channel Frog shook its head expressionlessly.
Unknown.
Unknown, so Liu Bo wasn't killed immediately... Although she didn't think anyone taken by a wild beast companion in the Hidden Realm and missing for a week could still be alive, Qiao Sang still held a sliver of hope and asked:
"What did you take him for?"
Compared to carrying bones or relics, she naturally hoped for a living person.
"Qu qu."
Channel Frog called out.
To deal with the wastewater.
To deal with the wastewater? Under Fangy's translation, Qiao Sang was taken aback.
Another unexpected answer.
Taking someone to deal with wastewater?
How exactly?
Could Liu Bo have a familiar specifically for dealing with wastewater that was discovered?
But that didn't make sense; she remembered his familiar was a Flying Type, which had nothing to do with water... Qiao Sang gathered her thoughts and said: "Take us to where you took Liu Bo."
"Qu qu?"
Channel Frog seemed to encounter a problem and remained silent. After a few seconds, it called out, asking who Liu Bo was.
Qiao Sang paused, then showed the mobile phone screen to it again:
"It's this person."
"Qu qu."
Channel Frog nodded expressionlessly and led the way.
Qiao Sang followed closely behind.
Lulu casually threw the empty potion bottle and hopped into her Beastmaster's backpack.
Migala silently followed alongside.
Yuan Jiewen hurried to keep up.
Not long after they left, a stream of water rose from the ground where the potion bottle had been, enveloping it before seeping back into the earth.
The spot where the potion bottle had been thrown was now empty. (End of Chapter)
