Chapter 604
Oceanblaze Beasts (Part 1)
“To the forest!” shouted Qiao Xue.
Mu Yu lifted Lu Xiong onto his back and sprinted through the moist, pungent forest littered with corpses, arriving at a large gully, where the erupting volcano was visible. They had no choice but to stop there for the oceanblaze beasts had already occupied the sky.
“Aren’t fiends supposed to be stronger than fiend beasts? Can’t you guys communicate?” Mu Yu questioned.
“It’s pretty much impossible to communicate with them because fiend beasts haven’t developed enough intelligence to communicate with us. With respect to your first question, a lack of brains doesn’t positively correlate to a lack of brawn,” answered Lu Xiong.
“Not only are oceanblaze Beasts one of the most powerful fiend beasts in the water but also a force to be reckoned with in the sky and moved in groups. As they are level six fiend beasts, their combat power rivals our own, especially when they are protecting their offspring.
“They reside under the ocean until they need to find a volcano for their eggs to hatch. The reason they choose to give birth at volcanoes is to let the lava hatch their eggs, consequently giving birth to fiend beasts impervious to lava. When the volcano erupts, their offspring will be shot out. If I’m not wrong, they’re heading to the volcano to fetch their newborns that aren’t able to fly yet.
“My gut feeling tells me they will perceive us to be hostiles and attack us if we bump into each other. With tens of thousands of them out there on ground and in the air, we’re heavily outnumbered. All we can do is wait until they’ve fetched their newborns,” informed Qiao Xue.
“How about I go intimidate them with my dragon status?” volunteered the dragon vine.
“Sit down. You won’t scare any level six fiend beast. If you’re lucky, you’ll give them a fright, only to then be shredded,” ribbed Xiaoshuai.
Mu Yu leaned Lu Xiong on a rock for the latter to rest more comfortably.
“Where are those three? I don’t sense them anywhere,” queried Mu Yu, expanding his search radius to ten kilometres.
“You can’t find them?” inquired Qiao Xue.
“Not a single trace.”
“Let me!” The dragon vine confronted the little one and threatened, “Get lost, or I’ll eat you!”
The little fellow finally froze stiff in place.
“Done. Let’s get going,” proudly said the dragon vine.
All of a sudden, the little fellow wailed.
“Roar!”
Rampaging footsteps approached faster than Mu Yu could curse.
“Big Earthworm, what did you scare the kid for?!” reproached Xiaoshuai, not speaking to the kid because it was too young to understand him.
“How was I supposed to know it was such a wuss? If it can’t stand up to a dragon, it’ll never amount to anything!” argued the dragon vine.
“Guys, can we get priorities straight?”
