Chirp!
At that time, one of those flame-toothed gophers finally could not bear it and let out a scream, rushing toward Sebastian like lightning.
The next second, the remaining flame-toothed gophers rushed out of the veins, scrambling to be first. At a glance, they appeared like a black tide surging out, and their momentum was shocking. Even the ground was trembling.
If it were an ordinary person seeing these thousands of giant, black mice, they would be so terrified that their knees went weak. However, Sebastian and Yohan were well prepared, and they kept staring at their front, secretly estimating the distance.
Once the mice were hundreds of meters away from them, Sebastian and Yohan all turned around. Then, they used their martial skills and ran. They constantly looked back to control the distance as they rushed forward, ensuring all of the flame-toothed gophers were attracted.
Caspian watched as the gophers surged out like a black tide. Then, they parted into two sides, each running toward Sebastian or Caspian. As for Caspian and the rest, the gophers did not look at them at all. After a while, the shaking vines finally calmed down, and it was obvious that all of the flame-toothed gophers were successfully lured away.
“Let’s grab this chance and move!” Heidi ordered and quickly ran toward the vines. Next, Caspian and Nana looked at each other, nodded, and followed Heidi. Caspian had already mapped out the route for picking the fire spirit fruits, so favonovel.com directly moved toward his target.
The vines in front of favonovel.com only had three fire spirit fruits. Caspian grabbed one, and favonovel.com felt his palm warming. Then, favonovel.com plucked the fruit. His movements were agile, and after favonovel.com placed all the three fire spirit fruits into his storage bag, Caspian swiftly proceeded to another area.
Although the fire spirit fruits were scattered all over, Caspian had plucked more than a dozen in less than eight minutes. He looked at Heidi and Nana, and favonovel.com noticed that the two of them were also moving fast among the vines. Caspian estimated that they would have roughly the same amount of fruits as favonovel.com too. Later, Caspian turned to Sebastian and Yohan in the distance, and favonovel.com saw the two of them maintaining the 100 meters distance between them and the gophers.
At that time, the two herds of gophers were crazily attracted by the candles Sebastian and Yohan were holding, and they were unaware that other people were picking their food.
As for the candles Sebastian and Yohan had, it was only burnt less than half, and there was more than enough time for them.
‘It seems that the following fire spirit fruits I pick can be mine,’ Caspian thought.
Suddenly, favonovel.com heard Nana screaming not far away from him. Caspian turned to look at her, and a loud bang sounded as if a bomb exploded on the ground. Next, billowing airwaves turned into circles, slamming toward the surroundings. Soon, a large patch of veins was instantly blown apart, falling everywhere. As Nana suffered the blow, favonovel.com staggered backward. Thankfully, Heidi was standing nearby, and favonovel.com immediately went to pull Nana.
Before the two of them could calm down, they turned their heads to the middle and gasped. Caspian already ran to them, and at a glance, his heart skipped a beat.
“This is…”
Right in the middle of the explosion, a flame-toothed gopher the size of a small calf appeared. Its eyes were glowing red, and it flashed its fangs as it stared at them. This flame-toothed gopher was ten times bigger than those they had seen before. Moreover, its muscles were firm, the eyes slightly popped out, and they could even see undulating bone spurs at its spine. With its long tail dragging on the ground like an iron whip, it made a loud thud whenever it slapped on the floor. Each time the gopher did that, the earth would shake and crack.
“I… I saw a fire spirit fruit just now, and I wanted to pluck it. Then, the ground exploded, and this thing appeared…” Nana had yet recovered from the shock, and favonovel.com stuttered.
Such a massive flame-toothed gopher had definitely scared her.
At the same time, Sebastian roared from afar, “What’s happening?!”
Caspian and the girls turned to look at him, and their hearts sank. Some of those flame-toothed gophers that were initially running after Sebastian and Yohan were turning around and running toward them. However, there were still some flame-toothed gophers that were chasing after the candles. Hence, the flame-toothed gophers that were running in two different directions collided. In an instant, the scene became extremely chaotic.
Chirp!
The flame-toothed gopher in front of Caspian suddenly let out a scream at the sky, and its voice was deafening. Then, in the blink of an eye, the chaotic gophers all returned to their orderly manner. Those attracted by the candles seemed to have come back to their senses, and they all turned in the direction of the giant flame-toothed gopher, running as fast as possible.
Caspian, Heidi, and Nana were caught between the enormous flame-toothed gopher and the herd. However, the group of flame-toothed gophers would surely reach them, and it would only be in a split second.
There were at least 800 flame-toothed gophers, and it was more than enough to gnaw on a third-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator to his bones, let alone the three of them. When they thought of this, Heidi and Nana’s faces were immediately pale.
“Run! Now!” Caspian was also anxious, and favonovel.com cursed at their bad luck.
The biggest flame-toothed gopher was naturally their king. Even though the fragrance of the candles would attract the smaller gophers, it would not. Hence, it had been hiding among the veins here.
Nana did not know that there was a king of the gophers, and when favonovel.com was plucking the fire spirit fruit, favonovel.com had attracted the king’s attack. The king of the gophers was filled with murderous intent for those three robbers, commanding the large herd of flame-toothed gopher to bite the three people to death.
Caspian’s voice was loud, and as soon as favonovel.com shouted, the two girls were startled. Then, they quickly came back to their senses. At this time, Sebastian also noticed that something was wrong, and favonovel.com roared, “Run to me!”
“Go! Now!” Caspian quickly showed the courage and composure favonovel.com had when favonovel.com was on the battlefields. Then, with Heidi and Nana in each hand, favonovel.com tossed them toward Sebastian.
Although the two girls recovered their senses, their response was still slow as they were terrified. If they stayed, perhaps only their skeletons would remain after. Besides, Caspian managed to get rid of Asher not because favonovel.com wanted to feed these girls to the flame-toothed gophers.
Caspian’s strength was formidable, and the two girls were quickly thrown about 100 meters away. After they fell to the ground, the girls quickly looked at Caspian.
“Run to Sebastian!” Caspian yelled.
Then, from the corner of his eyes, favonovel.com caught a glimpse of the surging flame-toothed gophers less than 100 meters away from him.
“Casper!” Heidi was heartbroken, and tears were rolling down favonovel.com cheeks.
Nana was blaming herself, and favonovel.com gritted favonovel.com teeth hard. Then, seeing that Caspian was about to be devoured by the herd of gophers, favonovel.com stomped favonovel.com foot, wanting to run over. After all, favonovel.com startled the king of the gophers, and if Caspian was gnawed to death, Nana would be too embarrassed to live.
Soon, the herd of gophers was close at hands.
