Chapter 1064: Caught A Team

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

If the three-meters-tall underground gorilla had eyes, its eyes would certainly be filled with question marks at the moment. However, it did not have eyes, and just its movements showed how confused it was. It leaned its head toward the tunnel entrance and sniffed around, then finally stepped into the tunnel.

By the edge of the hole, Lin Qiao kicked the last dead animal into the hole, then turned and walked back.

Sixteen underground gorillas brought thirty dead mutated animals, including dogs, cats, rats, snakes, pigs, birds, and some weird creatures that she had never seen before.

Lin Qiao had indeed caught sixteen underground creatures. Her mission was accomplished, but she didn’t plan to go home so soon. She wanted to find out how those creatures lived underground. Perhaps, she would have some other discoveries.

As she prepared to walk out of the tunnel, she sensed the vibe of another underground creature.

Another one? The creature’s vibe was much stronger than the vibes of the ones that had been thrown into Lin Qiao’s space. It was clearly at a higher level.

Lin Qiao might not be able to cage the relatively stronger one, so she decided to kill it.

After making the decision, she began moving forward slowly. She was invisible, and those creatures didn’t seem to be able to sense her presence or smell her. Earlier, the sixteen underground creatures made no reaction to her at all.

She could feel those underground gorillas running around in her woods. No matter how they tried, they could not leave the woods. Meanwhile, the higher-leveled underground gorilla came closer and closer. Lin Qiao saw it bend its waist and lower its head, then prop its upper body with its strong arms. It was much larger than the sixteen that she had caught.

Judging by its vibe, the underground creature was as strong as level-four mutated animals. Meanwhile, the ones that she had caught were only at level-two.

The creature’s body had almost completely blocked the entrance of the tunnel. There was no space left for Lin Qiao to slip through. Therefore, when she approached the creature, she swiftly reached out a hand to grab its arm and then brought it into her space.

“Roar…” Sensing some strange scents coming from the surrounding area, the level-four creature turned around and then roared out loud in a panic.

The level-two underground creatures which had been darting about in the woods heard their boss and responded to it immediately.

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

Hearing its subordinates, the level-four creature gave a roar in delight. But soon, it became unhappy.

Lin Qiao stood on a tree near the creature and waved a hand to release a wisp of dark fire. The fire flashed toward the level-four creature and left a thin, long, shaking tail behind. Before the creature could react, the fire drilled into its ear.

“Roar…” The dark fire drilled into the creature’s ear, causing it to immediately suffer a severe headache. It roared in pain and then held its head as it started rolling on the ground. While rolling, it scratched its head with its claws. Its eye-less, extremely ugly face was soon covered in blood and wounds.

The level-four creature’s painful screams made the other underground creatures fall into silence. But soon, the level-four creature stopped struggling and quieted down.

Its head slowly shrank, and so did its body. Before long, a wisp of dark fire flew out of its head, slightly larger than before. It then started devouring the creature’s head, neck, and upper body.

The other underground creatures in the woods sensed Lin Qiao’s fire. They didn’t dare to make any sound anymore, as they were afraid that the dangerous fire might come to them.

The fire devoured the creature and then returned to Lin Qiao with some new energy. The creature was only at level-four, so the energy it had was far from enough for Lin Qiao. Last time, she had devoured ten level-seven creatures to replenish herself. The slight amount of energy that the level-four creature had was nothing for her.

Lin Qiao flashed out of her space and quickly moved toward the tunnel entrance. She had no idea how long it would take for the other underground creatures to find out that a squad had gone missing. She wasn’t curious about that though, and she soon left the tunnel that led to the junkyard.

She wondered where the nest of those creatures was.

Standing in the round-shaped room, she sniffed around and then went into a tunnel, from where she sensed a fresh earthy smell.

Back on the earth’s surface…

Lin Qiao had been in the underground cave for hours. Except for Yun Meng, her three pets had also been waiting for her at the entrance.

“Owowowooo…” The dog, the snake, and the mushroom, who hadn’t shown up for a while, were now staying at the entrance to the cave, looking inside it. The dog wanted to go in, but the snake didn’t let it.

Bowwow was lying on the ground with its limbs spread. It let out its tongue as it looked into the hole on the ground excitedly. One of its rear legs was dragged backward by Black’s tail tip, so it wasn’t able to go into the hole.

Besides the dog, the mushroom planted its roots in the ground and leaned its head forward, seemingly looking inside the hole.

Yun Meng squatted nearby and rested her chin on her palm, looking at the three. The dog didn’t seem to sense the vibe coming from the hole, but the snake seemed to be afraid of it. It didn’t even let the dog approach the hole. On the side, the mushroom was both curious and vigilant.

She wondered how Lin Qiao made the three from a group.

Bowwow didn’t plan to give up even though one of its rear legs was being dragged backward by Black. It moved its forelimbs to try very hard to move forward. It was strong, so its rear leg extended and bit by bit and Black’s tail was dragged forward.

Black reared up its head, and a look of anger could be detected from its eyes. Suddenly, it dragged Bowwow’s entire body backward and then wrapped itself around its body.

“Owowow!” The dog made a few rolls on the ground and then was disabled from moving by the snake. Meanwhile, the mushroom made no reaction to what the two had been doing. Yun Meng looked at the zombie dog speechlessly. It shouldn’t have made the snake angry.

‘See, you can’t move now,‘ she said to the dog with her eyes.

At that moment, the mushroom, that had been leaning its head into the hole, suddenly leaped into the hole.

“Oi!” Yun Meng didn’t see that coming.

“Owo?” Bowwow also turned to the hole and looked at the area where the mushroom was standing before.

Black felt so annoyed. It tried so hard to stop the dog from going in, but it now looked like the effort it had made was completely in vain. After all, it had thought the mushroom didn’t want to go in.
