Chapter 343

"And you, Tuantuan, hurry up and wipe the table!" Inside a vast, resplendent palace.

The lamps blazed bright.

A Lolita girl, half-reclining on a chair.

A look of utter contentment on her face.

In her hand she held a black fruit, which she was eating.

While at the same time directing the bandage mummies to carry out their work.

It seemed—

A life like this filled her with boundless joy.

"That's wonderful, Buji Buji, look, you've got so many more friends!" "From now on, our palace is going to be lively!" The Lolita girl took a bite of the black fruit.

She spoke to the bandage bear standing respectfully beside her. "Buji, Buji!" And that great bandage bear—

Upon hearing the Lolita girl's words—

Obediently and meekly nodded its head.

Looking again at the entire palace—

Those bandage mummies—

Were all being ordered by the Lolita girl to do every sort of task.

Some were off playing here and there.

It looked like a scene of perfect domestic bliss.

"Th-this, what on earth is going on!"

"My body is actually not under my own control!"

"What exactly is this phantom beast's ability!" Inside the body of a bandage mummy.

Wei Wei Wuya's heart was seized with great terror.

Although his body was no longer under his control,

His mind remained clear. But—

The more it was so,

The more terror he felt.

His body actually could not help but obey that girl's commands.

What he did had nothing at all to do with his own will.

And before entering this palace,

He had seen outside the palace—

Bandage mummies piled up like mountains—and every one of those mummies was damaged.

Inside them!

Human skeletons were revealed, one after another.

When he saw that sight,

His body instantly trembled.

A deep terror welled up within him. "Beast tamers!" "Humans!" Clearly— Wei Wei Wuya realized those were people who had previously been captured by this strange Lolita girl.

Humans who had been made into bandage mummies.

And now, they had all been cast out to the outside.

Clearly!

Those were humans who had already died.

"Before long, I'll end up just like this!" Thinking of his own fate,

Even as a Diamond-rank beast tamer,

Wei Wei Wuya could not help but feel terror.

He raised his head and looked at the bandage mummy wolfhound beside him.

That was precisely Cao Cao Dexing.

At this very moment!

It happened that Cao Cao Dexing also raised his head.

The two men's gazes met.

Both saw the deep terror in the other's eyes.

They had been made into bandage mummies here.

Working day after day without rest.

Then slowly starving to death, dying of thirst.

Becoming a skeleton.

Thinking of such an end,

They both felt boundless fear.

But!

The terror in their hearts was utterly powerless.

No matter how afraid they were,

No matter how terrified,

They could not control their own bodies to flee.

They could not even command their own phantom beasts.

The Flame Spirit King and the Steel Devouring Beast were still at the door.

Guarding the entrance like guardian deities.

This feeling of helplessness.

Made Wei Wuya and Cao Dexing feel a deep despair.

"They say that a person dying of thirst, just before death, feels as if they are in the deep sea!" "Their whole body suffocates, feeling a tremendous water pressure erupting from within!"

"The brain has a huge pulling force, as if it wants to drain one's head dry!" "The throat feels as if it's being choked, the nose is unbearably uncomfortable!" Thinking of all these possibilities.

Wei Wuya and Cao Dexing grew even more fearful and desperate.

They looked at each other.

Both saw a patch of grey in the other's eyes.

That was a deep despair devoid of spirit.

In this lightless, sunless mine.

They had been made into bandaged mummies.

Nothing to eat.

Nothing to drink.

They could not call for help.

Of course!

Nor could anyone possibly come here to save them.

If someone really did appear.

It would only mean one more bandaged mummy.

Two soundless sighs.

Echoed in the souls of Wei Wuya and Cao Dexing.

Thump thump thump!

Just at this moment!

Light footsteps.

In this dark, quiet environment.

Like heavenly thunder, struck the heart of every beast-tamer.

Cao Dexing and Wei Wuya couldn't help but look up in pleasant surprise.

This feeling was just like being in a desert.

When someone suddenly hands you a cup of water.

Although a single cup of water may not be enough to walk out of the desert.
