Chapter 265: Chapter 265

Beside the ice pool, Qian Qi and the B-level Magic Beasts stared at each other.

As the informant of Glacier Valley, the White Extreme Rat possesses extremely keen hearing and smell, as well as a super ability to burrow underground, making it almost ghost-like within the Glacier Valley. They know the gossip of every Magic Beast and are aware of the locations of all Magic Plants, enjoying the consumption of Advanced fresh carcasses and aspiring to establish good social relations with the major Magic Beasts.

The White Extreme Rat’s appetite is small, and naturally, the big-stomached Advanced Magic Beasts won’t bother catching a White Extreme Rat just for a taste, they are even more than willing to share a bite of their hunted food with the White Extreme Rat, hoping that if the White Extreme Rat discovers something good, they can share it.

Previously, when a Wind Snow Ape had one of its eyes injured by an unknown object, it was the White Extreme Rat that quickly spread the news, and their gossip-loving nature led them to track the scent of the eye to Qian Qi.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp—!" Below, the small White Rats chirped sharply.

Hearing this piercing shriek, Qian Qi couldn’t help but cover her ears. She hadn’t expected these little white rats to be soundwave-type Magic Beasts, and their loud voices actually made all the Magic Beasts present stop their attacks.

The only thing that could temporarily stop the Magic Beasts of Glacier Valley from fighting was surely the White Extreme Rat. No one knew what the White Extreme Rat said, but those B-level Magic Beasts all looked at Qian Qi in unison, their eyes full of contemplation.

Why are you all looking at me? Don’t look at me! I’m just passing by!

And what’s with these little white rats? Are they Magic Beasts proficient in 18 languages? Why can everything they say be understood by all the Magic Beasts?

Qian Qi, being held hostage, was filled with silent tears, not aware that in this instance that had existed in this world for a hundred years, the Magic Beasts had long discovered the end of the instance was a void. They couldn’t leave or return to the familiar places they once knew, and could only wander within this Glacier Valley...

Gradually, they formed their own entertainment and ecological system. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel·fiɾe·net

Through generations, the White Extreme Rats had long become familiar with the language of every Magic Beast in Glacier Valley, becoming the treasured mascots of the Glacier Magic Beasts.

In any case, they specialized in maintaining a balance, notifying everyone if there was good stuff, and never taking sides in Magic Beast fights, safeguarding their own lives by staying neutral!

Therefore, Qian Qi saw the ten or so Wind Snow Apes on the scene suddenly glaring at her angrily, but under the hissing of the White Extreme Rat and the obstruction of other Magic Beasts, they retracted their hostile gazes, crossing their arms and standing angrily at the side.

These Wind Snow Apes are loyal, but naturally coveted the heart and flesh of their boss after its death.

Nearby, a Demon Bear seemed doubtful of the White Extreme Rat’s words. It lifted a claw and prodded the small Qian Qi, and upon discovering her incredible hardness, it instantly let out a "Wah-howl."

A White Extreme Rat hopped onto Qian Qi’s thigh, chirping at her, as if its pearl-sized red eyes were showing off something.

Seeing that there was temporarily no danger, Qian Qi mused for a couple of seconds, then shook her head and said, "I don’t understand."

White Extreme Rat: ...

White Extreme Rat: "What should we do, this strong unknown creature seems to not understand."

White Extreme Rat A: "Should we use body language to gesture with it?"

White Extreme Rat B: "Or should we just bring out the heart and ask if it wants it?"

White Extreme Rat C: "If it doesn’t want it, then we can share it among ourselves."

White Extreme Rat D: "Yes, the rule established after losing that group battle was that the strong one who kills a Wind Snow Ape gets to enjoy half the heart first, and the remaining half can be shared with other Magic Beasts, and during the healing period after a fierce battle with the Wind Snow Apes, they can receive protection from those Magic Beasts."

This matter is guaranteed by their Water Master White Extreme Rat, and if anyone breaks the rules, they will definitely become a target among the Magic Beasts, unable to mix within this circle!

White Extreme Rat: "Alright then, Squad 327, go find the heart and see if it wants it!"

At the chirp of the White Extreme Rat, a string of White Extreme Rats burrowed into the Ice Ruins. Soon, they dragged up a chunk of heart and tossed it in front of Qian Qi.

Qian Qi glanced at it, not quite understanding what was going on. Did they intend to give it to her? There couldn’t be such a good thing, right?

Looking up, sensing the surrounding eyes filled with hunger, Qian Qi silently pushed the heart a bit farther, not daring to accept such a heavy gift.

A cheer erupted from the group of Magic Beasts.

The White Extreme Rats immediately lifted Qian Qi and transported her to the passage dug out from the Ice Ruins.

"What do they want to do now?" Qian Qi felt a bit exhausted as she saw the White Extreme Rats opening up paths within the Ice Ruins, then depositing her to where the heart meat was located.

The White Extreme Rat pointed at the chunk of heart meat, chirping at her as if signaling her to take the heart meat. Qian Qi had no choice but to reach for the heart and inadvertently bumped into the Ice Soul Xuanlong Grass.

The Ice Soul Xuanlong Grass suddenly lunged at her, and though she was fine thanks to her S-level Defense Armor, two pieces of Xuanlong Grass were clearly targeting the White Extreme Rats, and Qian Qi quickly pinched them, causing the Xuanlong Grass to explode in her hand!

A sound of gasping from the White Extreme Rats immediately followed, their eyes filled with admiration as they looked at Qian Qi.

A strong unknown species! It even saved their rat lives!

"It" is a gentle, good-natured beast!

Just as Qian Qi steadied the heart, the White Extreme Rats cheered and quickly carried her out of the Ice Ruins. Then, standing up, they vigorously beat their chests facing the Magic Beasts, chirping out a description.

"Strong one! Not afraid of the Ice Soul Xuanlong Grass!"

"Strong one! Strong!"

"Strong one! Protects us! Leadership quality!"

Seeing this, the Demon Bear that had previously poked Qian Qi instantly excitedly pounded its sturdy chest before her, displaying its strength. Seeing Qian Qi seem indifferent, it also hammered the ground with its fists, causing two huge ice spikes to rise up. It looked at Qian Qi’s heart in her hand with anticipation, hoping she’d choose it as the Guardian.

Qian Qi trembling: What are they doing!

Are they threatening her to give up the heart?

A person has to bow under a low eave. Qian Qi quickly pushed the large chunk of heart meat in her arms toward it. The Demon Bear hurriedly bent down, took it joyfully with both hands, and began to gobble it up, then sat next to digest it.

Seeing the Demon Bear succeed, the other Magic Beasts began excitedly demonstrating their strength to Qian Qi, "threatening" her to share the heart with them.

Aren’t you guys devils!

I’m just a small and weak human! You can’t all pick on me alone, even the company boss isn’t as exploitative as you are!

Alas, no Magic Beast could understand her language. Not only that, but more and more Magic Beasts were coming upon hearing the news, occupying the nearby hills and surrounding Qian Qi so tightly that not even water could pass through...

Meanwhile, the White Extreme Rats, cheering, transported Qian Qi into the Ice Ruins once again...
