Chapter 22: Encountering a Strong Enemy?

Buzz off–

Xu Jingnian had the little guy bring the drone underground, and he then remotely maneuvered it to take off in the dimly lit crypt.

The drone’s thermal imaging turned on.

The image is almost always a faint layer of color, very blurry, the temperature of this underground is so low that heat sensing is greatly weakened.

He could only fly forward stiffly.

However, before he could fly forward for much distance ……, he saw the screen shake violently for a moment and was accompanied by a light ringing sound.

Bang!

Then the screen stopped moving.

“What happened, did we hit a rock wall?”

Xu Jingnian scratched his head.

It doesn’t look like this heat-sensing drone is going to be very good at exploring underground caves.

In this complex and cold environment, the imaging was terrible and it was almost impossible to maneuver accurately.

I don’t know if it can be upgraded.

Xu Jingnian thought.

“Genpou, go pick up the drone, it should have hit the wall.” He commanded.

The little pangolin, who had only turned back for a short time, looked puzzled, then turned his head and dove into that tunnel again.

Waiting from after crawling into the crypt.

Genpou, however, saw nothing.

“A?”

Most importantly, in front of it was a fork in the road that separated left and right, and both sides were so dark and deep that it was impossible to see anything.

“Uh, I remember it was supposed to fly left ……”

Xu Jingnian thought for a moment.

“It should be the left right, the drone is still flying fast, walk a little further.”

This situation is a bit difficult to deal with, the inside of this crypt is not safe at first sight, and going the wrong way might lead to danger.

“Be careful, run away immediately when you find something wrong, and if you really can’t, don’t bother with this drone.”

Xu Jingnian admonished.

“A!”

Genpou nodded.

It looked around cautiously, then took a step toward the dark tunnel to its left.

After stepping forward a dozen meters or so.

Although visibility in the pitch black was minimal.

Still, Xu Jingnian saw the drone tipped over on all fours on the ground, but strangely enough, not by the rock face, but lying right in the middle of the open space.

“No!”

Xu Jingnian immediately issued a command, “Little guy, pull back and leave the drone alone.”

“A?”

Genpou was puzzled, having seen the drone, why didn’t he go and pick it up?

But it was puzzled though.

And yet, they still trust their masters unconditionally.

Turned decisively and ran immediately with his short legs.

Phew!

At this time, both Xu Jingnian and Yuan Bao heard a sudden sound from behind them, followed by a sharp pain that hit them.

Got hit by something.

“It hurts, run!”

Due to the synchronization of his senses, Xu Jingnian was also struck by lightning, only feeling a sharp pain in his back and an accompanying numbness where he was struck.

“A ……”

Yuan Bao was trembling all over, it was terrified, and its short legs flew as fast as they could.

“Scary, scary, scary!!!”

Behind it, there was another eerie laugh, and it sent out another long-range attack.

Shoo–

Once again, a sharp pain came from his back, and this time, it even directly knocked Yuan Bao off balance and fell to the ground.

“Don’t be afraid little one, quickly climb up, we’re almost there!” Xu Jingnian hurriedly comforted, fearing that Yuanbao would simply swing for the fences due to excessive fear.

Genpou slumped to the ground.

It looked at the tunnel which was only a few meters away and tried to move its legs, but it couldn’t make a move, couldn’t stand up, and it was weak from fear to the extreme.

“A ……”

In his mind, Yuan Bao’s timid and helpless cries came, and Xu Jingnian commanded in a rush:

“Little one, can’t crawl then! Curl right up and roll into the hole!”

“A!”

Genpou, though scared, knew that if he didn’t follow his master’s instructions, he would really die.

So it decisively did as it was told.

Burying his head in the warmth of his stomach, his scales unfurled and he curled up all over into a hard ball of armor.

Guru Guru Guru ……

It started trying to roll up.

“Scary~Scary!”

At that moment, another long-range attack came, only to hear a swoosh, but instead, it was like pumping a gyroscope, knocking the sphere state of Yuanbao into rotation.

“A~~”

Now, the little pangolin’s head was spun around at high speed, and it was directly indistinguishable from the direction, and the bottom of its eyes seemed to have gold stars.

The escape tunnel, which is only a few meters away, has become an unreachable moat.

“No!”

Xu Jingnian angrily punched a mattress.

Seeing that his own favored beast was about to despair, he could only forcefully command, “Little guy, there’s no escape ……”

“There’s no choice but to give it a blast!!!”

“A…”

Yuan Bao, hearing Xu Jing Nian’s encouragement, slightly shot up a point of courage, but still couldn’t face the danger head on.

Seeing this, Xu Jingnian knew that it was only missing the last little bit of what it had fought for.

“Think about it, if you die like that, you’ll never get to eat fire crystals again, and ore that tastes better than fire crystals that you’ll dig up later!”

Pie ……

Xu Jingnian, who considered himself a treacherous businessman, could be considered very proficient in this skill, no matter what words came out of his mouth.

At that moment, the sound of tiny footsteps behind them stopped, accompanied by a clicking sound.

“Scary, scary!”

However, the other party didn’t seem to attack right away, but just stood back and let out a strange laugh.

“A ……”

The little pangolin was still hesitating.

Xu Jingnian added, “Most of all, little one, you haven’t eaten termites yet, that’s the number one food on the must-eat list of the pangolin!”

“That long thin tongue of yours is specialized for this ……”

“A?”

Upon hearing the word termite, Genpou’s racial genes seemed to awaken!

Although it does not know what this is, but firmly believe that do not eat the last termite, in vain as a pangolin ……

“A!”

Genpou finally mustered up the courage.

He braced himself on the ground with his paws and then stood up, as imposing as a little Tyrannosaurus Rex.

“You’ve worked up the courage, so turn your head and see what we’re up against, really?”

Xu Jingnian said.

The little pangolin had been chased by long range attacks, the key had sensory synchronization, and his body hurt.

So it’s annoying!

There was still some timidity in Yuan Bao’s eyes, but it eventually, turned around and finally got a full view of its opponent.

Only a lump of ice with limbs like lines stood on the not-so-flat rock in the pitch blackness.

No more than fifty centimeters tall.

At this moment, it was using its two tiny ice hands to condense an ice cone, which had yet to be fully formed.

“No, just this little thing …… chased us all the way?!”

Xu Jingnian was infuriated and laughed.

Yuan Bao’s size, all slightly larger than it, at least it looked like it shouldn’t be of the same magnitude.

The Ice Lump opened its toothless mouth, and from it drilled an eerie laugh, “Scary, scary!”

The unknown was the greatest fear, and when he actually saw that his opponent was such a small thing, Yuan Bao was actually less afraid.

“A!”

Genpou was also angry.

It raised its claws and charged straight up.

While Ice Pile just happened to be on his hands, he condensed two piles of ice cones and swooshed and threw them at Yuan Bao.

Xu Jingnian didn’t even need to command.

With the experience of taking a beating the first few times, Yuan Bao directly used his scale armor to resist the ice pick attack.

Then pounce on the ice heap.

It is like a zombie, press the ice pile and start to gnaw, the other side with ice hand block, then directly hand also gnawed.

Feet to scramble and gnaw too!

“Scary, scary!”

All this miserable look, the mouth is still strange smile, and chewed off, ice pile of good taste, chew, all chewed!
