Chapter 408: Chapter 408

"So it really is a volcano... Sister Sheng Qing, what do we do?"

Looking at the magma tsunami taller than the sky, Xi Pingzhe swallowed hard.

Qian Qi and Xu Jinghong are still inside. They should be able to escape in time, right?

Sheng Qing frowned and pondered for a moment, "Let’s wait for them first."

With such a big commotion, Qian Qi couldn’t not notice the volcanic eruption and will definitely head this way.

Xi Pingzhe nodded, took out his little notebook again, and kept it close.

Can’t let the magma swallow it up, it took a lot of effort to write.

After waiting for a while, seeing the magma tsunami getting closer, Sheng Qing finally caught sight of the fleeing Qian Qi and Xu Jinghong through the sniper scope, and saw Xu Jinghong riding the Emperor Python up the mountain.

As a student with sniping skills, there are specialized lip-reading courses at the school. Through the scope, she confirmed the solution Xu Jinghong said on the mountain and pointed her gun at the Fire Silk Grass, shooting at the right spots below the wound of the stalk to ensure Qian Qi could break the Fire Silk Grass.

Immediately afterwards, she cleared the Magic Beast Tide around Qian Qi and the Emperor Python King, ensuring they could leave with slightly less difficulty.

Can’t deny, she really helped a lot. Free from the hindrance of the Fire Silk Grass and the Magic Beast Tide, Qian Qi and Xu Jinghong quickly joined up with Sheng Qing and Xi Pingzhe.

Qian Qi didn’t waste words, directly shouting to the two, "Go! It’s not safe here!"

Not safe was an understatement; the volcano was still erupting, showing no signs of weakening, and escaping was a whole other question.

Sheng Qing immediately put away the sniper rifle, jumped onto the Emperor Python King, Xi Pingzhe hurriedly jumped on, and the Emperor Python King rushed toward the east.

Behind them, the magma tsunami surged, its overwhelming power seemingly capable of burning up the whole world. The splashing magma landed on them, instantly burning a large hole in the grass cover on Sheng Qing and Xi Pingzhe.

Their speed couldn’t match the speed of the pursuing tsunami.

The Emperor Python King was so anxious that it cried, "It’s over, it’s over! We’re going to die!"

Watching the magma wave looming overhead, Qian Qi’s expression darkened in thought, Xi Pingzhe and Xu Jinghong clenched their fists, faces slightly pale, Sheng Qing bit her lip, wanting to speak to Qian Qi but hesitated.

She didn’t know if asking Qiqi to bring out Qian Ba, to let her pet Qian Ba’s fur one last time before dying would be agreed to by Qiqi.

She wanted to touch something fluffy one last time before dying.

At this very moment, Qian Qi’s stern face was in tense negotiation with the system.

"Tongzi, take us out, and whatever you want in return is fine!" Qian Qi urged, the magma tsunami isn’t something to mess with, she couldn’t let the three of them die there.

The system unwillingly replied, [I’m only this big, how can I carry four of you! I can take at most two!]

Its small frame could already barely accommodate one Qian Qi!

With their lives at stake, Qian Qi had no patience for its nonsense, directly exposing its bluff with a cold laugh, "Who are you kidding? You can obviously enlarge yourself by hundreds of times!"

The system trembled with shock.

Impossible! It had never enlarged in front of Qian Qi! The only time, wasn’t it during the last time at the Chuyun Mountain Dungeon to eliminate someone, barely getting a little thicker!

And Qian Qi was unconscious at the time!

Seeing the system silent, Qian Qi immediately voiced her deduction, "The turtle shell from the Yanjiao Dungeon clearing reward was so big. For such a small panel like you to bury it underground, wouldn’t it take at least a day to dig and another day to bury?"

Yet it buried several zhang wide gigantic turtle shell into the ground so quickly and also got itself out of the instance. What other explanation could there be aside from enlarging itself to improve efficiency?

Maybe it can not only change size but shape as well!

Damn! Admitting defeat, it really had all its secrets laid bare by her!

So she had known it could enlarge since the Yanjiao Dungeon?!

And she hid it for so long, pretending not to know?

Damn? How did she do it? How did she manage to endure for so long without exposing it?

The system was going a little crazy.

Qian Qi laughed coldly, "Don’t I keep it quiet just out of kindness, to leave you some dignity."

"Think carefully, this is your one and only chance to extort me." She threatened, "If you don’t help, don’t expect me to spread knowledge anymore."

Qian Qi’s words were quite nuanced. The system shuddered slightly, then looked at her meaningfully.

Alright, given that the words have gone this far, it decided to extort...

Just as the system was about to agree to the deal, suddenly, a joyful yet heroic "caw" sounded abruptly in Qian Qi’s ear, like a landlord telling the peasants there’s no need to pay land rent this year, making Qian Qi instantly overjoyed.

"Contractor~ I’ve brought my wife to rescue you all——"

She looked up, seeing a gigantic Moyu, resembling a black Phoenix, streak across the sky at an incredibly bizarre speed, suddenly appearing before everyone. Then with its sharp, massive talons, it grabbed the Emperor Python’s snake body along with the people on it, swooping them into the sky like an eagle catching a little snake!

Below them, the towering magma tsunami surged past beneath their feet and into the ground. Being lifted into the sky, all they could see below were rolling searing magma waves. If they accidentally fell, there would be no body left.

Xi Pingzhe swallowed hard, clutching tightly onto the scale armor protruding from the Emperor Python King’s head, "S-scared me to death!"

He thought they were dead for sure!

Moyu flapped its wings, landing on Qian Qi’s shoulder, and with its small wings placed on its chest, it proudly said, "Contractor~ I found a girlfriend! Isn’t it super cool and safe?"

Qian Qi looked up at the Moyu hundreds of times larger than the Moyu she knew: "..."

"What’s its..." Qian Qi was not too sure about its level.

"A-level!" Moyu said proudly.

The A-level here refers to the power reaching A-level, with its evolution level unknown for now. It needs to be judged based on how many Magic Beast skills it can use.

However, looking at Ya Ya’s girlfriend, aside from its huge size, there is no difference in appearance from Ya Ya, it should be a D-level Moyu that evolved over time to become an A-level power Magic Beast.

Moreover, its speed just now was so fast that Qian Qi was almost envious to tears. The source of thɪs content is novᴇlfire.net

The female crow carried the Emperor Python King towards the east, and after picking up the waiting Little Ink Crows, began heading south.

This volcanic eruption was more ferocious than ever before. Previous eruptions were either less imposing or failed to pass the Fire Silk Grass, but this time it was a once-in-a-century major eruption, and no one could guarantee it wouldn’t swallow the northern valleys as well.

At this moment, relocation was best.

The female crow’s flying speed reached an extreme, and under Moyu’s command, they soon reached the Central Deep Forest Area. Confirming the magma tsunami couldn’t catch up, only then did they drop the Emperor Python King and the others to the ground.

Upon landing, the Emperor Python King started vomiting, both puking and shaking, "In my lifetime, urgh—getting saved by a natural enemy, urgh—"

It seems in the Magic Beast World, bird snakes of the same power level must also be irreconcilable foes.
