Chapter 405: Chapter 405
In the distance, the towering volcano suddenly erupted with towering magma heat, accompanied by thunderous roars, unable to suppress the inner fervor any longer. It spewed scalding red-hot lava and fire stones towards the sky like a downpour of meteors!
The fire stones falling from the sky struck the earth like a natural disaster, igniting fiery flames upon impact, making the already distorted air even more suffocating. Many low-level Magic Beasts fell headlong, unable to rise again...
The volcano was incredibly powerful, and within seconds, the surging magma swept over the nearby area like a tsunami, causing countless Magic Beasts to scream tragically as they fled in all directions!
The speed at which the magma spread exceeded Qian Qi’s imagination!
Qian Qi glanced at the Fire Silk Grass boss, feeling intense reluctance. If the Fire Silk Grass was engulfed by the Magma Tsunami, it would surely die, and this instance would break without a fight, but...
She was just one step away, just one step from success!
And once the instance is conquered, they would have to wait five years to refresh a new instance boss!
Thinking about the easily attainable A-level reward slipping away before her eyes made her heart bleed!
"No way! I can’t stand it!"
Qian Qi glared angrily at the Fire Silk Grass and decisively placed Xu Jinghong on the Emperor Python King, declaring, "Emperor Python King, take Little Hong and go! Don’t look back!"
"What about you!" the Emperor Python King asked quickly.
"I’ll be right there!"
With that, she leapt down towards the Magic Beast Tide below like a warrior heading to a heroic sacrifice!
The Emperor Python King was dumbfounded. It couldn’t see Qian Qi anymore. Looking at the surging Magma Tsunami in the distance, it dared not be negligent, urgently fleeing eastward with Xu Jinghong.
"My contractor! You must catch up with us quickly!"
The Emperor Python King left those words, swiftly and cautiously bypassing the frenzied Magic Beasts’ frequent attacks, swatting away lunging Magic Beasts with its robust tail. Meanwhile, the Emperor Pythons on Qian Qi’s head fell off like shedding hair, transforming into giant pythons and crawling towards the Emperor Python King, rapidly clearing a path.
Finally escaping the attack range of the Magic Beast Tide, the Emperor Python King glanced back worriedly, yet couldn’t find a trace of Qian Qi.
"My contractor, you surely won’t have died!"
The Emperor Python King’s anguished howl echoed through the mountains, yet it dared not turn back to save Qian Qi. It could only flee while occasionally looking back, checking over a dozen times without seeing her catching up. Finally, gritting its teeth in resolve, it decided to turn back and take a look.
However, just as it turned its head, it suddenly saw the originally towering Fire Silk Grass tremble violently as if it had suddenly grown a meter taller!
Emperor Python King: ?
The Emperor Python King blinked hard, and the next second saw the once upright Fire Silk Grass suddenly tilt sideways, like something had cut it in half. It then started speeding its way!
Emperor Python King: !!!
Is this Fire Silk Grass a mobile-type Magic Plant?!
The sound of frenzied Magic Beasts running filled its ears. The Emperor Python King’s serpent body quivered, confirming that the frenzied Magic Beasts were indeed following the Fire Silk Grass boss running in this direction!
"Oh, mother!" The Emperor Python King immediately turned to run; oh no, sorry, it didn’t have legs. It desperately wriggled its snake body to continue escaping eastward, "My contractor! I’m sorry! You must survive!"
In front, the Emperor Python King and the pythons were crazily running. Behind, the Fire Silk Grass and a swarm of frenzied Magic Beasts desperately chased.
But somehow, that Fire Silk Grass seemed like a toddler just learning to walk, toppling down as it ran. After it fell a few times, the Emperor Python King couldn’t help but look back, puzzled, "What’s going on? I’ve never seen a mobile-type Magic Plant that trips over?"
Just after saying that, it saw the Fire Silk Grass boss shakily climbing up, stumbling towards its direction.
The toppling white fluffy petals trembled in mid-air. Though it wasn’t a human or a Magic Beast and shouldn’t show any expression, it strangely gave the Emperor Python King an illusion of feeling "so helpless, so bewildered."
The Emperor Python King finally realized something was off.
The direction it was fleeing was where it had separated from Moyu, but considering the direction of the volcanic eruption and the flowing magma, if the Fire Silk Grass boss were smart, it should have known to run southeast.
Yet no matter how it looked, it felt like... this Fire Silk Grass seemed to be chasing it!
Is it a misperception...?
The Emperor Python King rolled its eye and instantly rushed in another direction.
As expected, the Fire Silk Grass boss immediately changed direction, chasing its direction!
Emperor Python King: !!!
Oh no! This boss is targeting it!
But why? It shouldn’t have anything valuable on itself?
The Emperor Python King racked its brain, but its not-so-clever mind couldn’t figure out an answer. Meanwhile, on its head, Xu Jinghong, observing the nearby mountain mines, suddenly said, "Could it be that Qian Qi used some method to make the Fire Silk Grass ?"
Some dormant memories suddenly attacked, and a strange expression emerged on his face.
"My contractor isn’t dead?" The Emperor Python King was overjoyed, "Should we turn back to save her?!"
Xu Jinghong wasn’t quite sure either. What he just mentioned was merely a guess, and the most crucial problem was, even if he guessed right, how could they help Qian Qi upon their return, or would they become a burden?
Xu Jinghong quickly analyzed the current situation, yet remained undecided. Spotting the nearby Black Mountain, he suddenly pointed to a mountain, "Let’s go to that mountain top!"
The mountain top was high; one could clearly see the situation below, possibly also checking on Qian Qi and the Fire Silk Grass!
The Emperor Python King immediately twisted its body, rapidly crawling towards that mountain, and as they reached the summit, they noticed, in the distance, a massive Magic Beast Tide surging forward, the trembling Fire Silk Grass boss surrounded in the middle. Its two "big braids" dragged on the ground like crippled legs, leaving behind two horrid trails of blood...
Below the Fire Silk Grass boss, a tiny humanoid figure furiously carried the Big Strong Flower, wildly sprinting towards them!
If the Little Poisonous Venom Python were here, it would surely scream: Holy crap! It’s that move!
It’s the ’Attracting bees and snakes’ move, carrying the Poisonous Emperor Lotus and the little human to lure it far away, then launching a group attack to kill it!
She actually carried the Fire Silk Grass boss at this moment too!
The Emperor Python King was utterly dumbfounded, "I thought that Magic Plant was a mobile-type Magic Plant, turns out it’s actually a passive-type Magic Plant?!"
The Fire Silk Grass was truly wretched, being uprooted and dragged over such a long distance! The source of this content ɪs novel※fire.net
