My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome-Chapter 739 - 106: Assault on the Snow Mountain
Chapter 739: Chapter 106: Assault on the Snow Mountain
This ice-covered continent was exceptionally barren, and the occasional sight of mountains across the endless snow plains was already a rarity.
The piercing yet heatless sunlight hung above in the sky, fortunately, Kadu had given Shao Zifeng a mask, saving his eyes from being exposed to the glare for an extended period again.
"Stop!"
After rushing for the better part of the day, the somewhat fatigued group finally arrived at their first destination.
Kadu glanced at Shao Zifeng, then said something to the warrior behind him.
The warrior nodded, then raised his arm, and the Snow Eagle perched on his forearm cried out and took flight toward the nearby mountains.
As the Snow Eagle vanished into the snowstorm, Kadu spoke again, "Rest where you are."
The warriors silently took the bags from the backs of their Cobobite beasts, sitting together to share various types of raw meat. As they opened their water skins, the cool fragrance of alcohol drifted through the air. freewēbnoveℓ.com
Shao Zifeng dismounted from Yaya and looked at the beast meat divided amongst them before the journey, "Yaya, open your mouth."
"Gurgle."
Yaya obediently opened its mouth, took the meat from Shao Zifeng’s hands, swallowed it, and then licked its lips, seemingly wanting more.
Shao Zifeng looked at its gluttonous manner with annoyance and covertly took out two bottles of Elemental Potion to stuff into its mouth.
Yaya closed its eyes happily, lying in the snow, absorbing the energy from the potions.
Faint footsteps approached: "@#¥?"
Shao Zifeng turned and locked eyes with Kadu, both feeling somewhat embarrassed; without the little one, they could not even manage the simplest communication.
But it couldn’t be helped, Katir was simply too small to always be with them.
Kadu opted not to speak further, instead, she untied her water skin from her waist and passed it to Shao Zifeng.
Shao Zifeng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, declining her kindness. It wasn’t about the proprieties between men and women; he simply couldn’t drink alcohol, and besides, he had experienced the bone-chilling coldness of this world’s beverages...
Kadu did not insist, casually sitting in the snow, drawing her short sword to cut a slice of beast meat to eat, and then took a fierce swig from the water skin, the unrestrained manner exuding a free-spirited air reminiscent of warriors from the pugilist world.
Shao Zifeng sat down as well, noticing that everyone was eating, and felt awkward just sitting there, so he took a backpack from Yaya and began to rummage through it.
To avoid attracting attention, Shao Zifeng had casually grabbed a backpack to hang on Yaya before leaving. In the rush of departure, he had not seen which one he had taken.
After some searching, he felt a bit embarrassed; the backpack was the one he used soon after he first arrived through the portal. Because of the pet-space, he had put it aside long ago, but now it appeared in this manner.
The old backpack contained things he collected in his early years, including Elemental Ores whose energy was almost depleted, some low-level Elemental Potions, expired compressed biscuits, and a diary belonging to that guy Karen.
Rustle!
At that moment, a leather pouch rattled crisply. Shao Zifeng picked it up and memories of his time in Antarctica years ago surfaced in his mind.
The leather pouch contained two Queen Anne Gold Coins, a small bottle of liquor, and a gemstone ring, found alongside Karen’s diary.
Although these items were valuable, Shao Zifeng had eventually stopped worrying about money, and these treasures slowly faded from his thoughts.
After a rough sorting, Shao Zifeng took out the small bottle of centuries-old whiskey and the Ruby ring separately, deciding to return the favor with the Ruby ring since Katir had given him an amulet before the journey, thinking the little girl would probably love it.
As for the alcohol...
Shao Zifeng handed the portable flask with a smile to Kadu, who was eagerly eating.
Kadu looked at the flask, puzzled, and then back at him.
Shao Zifeng pointed to her water skin, then opened the lid of the portable flask. The rich aroma of the alcohol mixed with the scent of fruitwood immediately caught Kadu’s attention.
Kadu thanked him for the flask with a word, a simple thanks that Shao Zifeng could understand.
She looked at the flask in her hand, then at the beast meat in front of her, her eyes showing a hint of reluctance. Eventually, she cut off a piece with her short sword and handed it to Shao Zifeng.
Shao Zifeng watched her retracing her hand with the beast meat and was about to take it when he noticed the girl pulling it back slightly. He smiled amusedly and waved his hand at Kadu, indicating he did not need it.
This made Kadu feel embarrassed, but at Shao Zifeng’s insistence, she happily stuffed the meat into her mouth and took a habitual swig of the drink.
Then she stood frozen, her chest heaving rapidly.
"Pfft!"
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Kadu spat out the strong liquor and couldn’t stop coughing, drawing puzzled looks from the distant warriors.
"@#¥?"
With some embarrassment, Kadu passed the drink to Shao Zifeng, said something unintelligible, and then ignored him.
"Alert!"
At that moment, the sound of an urgent screeching came from above.
The Snow Eagle’s master’s face changed, and he hastily swallowed the beast meat in his mouth, picked up the spear beside him, and shouted loudly, "Alert!"
Over twenty warriors promptly got up, looking towards the mountaintop with vigilance.
"Alert!"
The screeching got closer, and the batter, wounded Snow Eagle struggled to beat its wings against the wind and snow, flying towards its master.
Seeing the warrior ready to catch it, Shao Zifeng’s expression changed, "Yaya."
"Roar!"
Yaya let out a low growl and forcefully stamped its paw down.
The ground shook violently, a crack opening on the ice, rapidly extending towards the warrior.
Boom!
A massive rock broke through the ice, and, under the bewildered gazes of the people, violently hit the Snow Eagle’s belly.
"Alert!"
The Snow Eagle cried out in despair as it was knocked back, slamming heavily against the mountainside, then slowly began sliding down.
Anger flashed in the eyes of that warrior, who turned and roared at Shao Zifeng, "#¥%!!"
The other warriors’ eyes were also filled with hostility, ready to start a fight at any moment.
"#¥!"
Just then, a tall figure stepped in front of Shao Zifeng, her stern gaze making the warriors reluctantly lower their heads.
Then Kadu turned to look at Shao Zifeng, as if asking for an explanation.
Shao Zifeng did not speak, but pointed in the direction where the Snow Eagle had fallen.
Following his direction, Kadu’s pupils shrank suddenly. She saw the Snow Eagle propping itself up with its wings, its neck twisting at extreme angles, with pronounced veins surfacing beneath the feathers.
The warriors too noticed the change in the Snow Eagle, their eyes showing disbelief.
"Alert!!"
The Snow Eagle’s feathers fluffed up, its crimson eyes filled with madness, emitting a hoarse screech at the people, lacking any of the previous clarity.
Before anyone could react, another strange noise came through the snow.
Figures leaped and darted across the mountain peak, rushing toward them at incredible speed.
