Chapter 301

"Little, Chu, dead." The blood rage power on Da Bao's body became more and more intense, wrapping him as if he were a blood beast.

Chu Danqing understood what he meant; the "dead" Da Bao mentioned did not refer to the Miri leader, but to the Pure Yang Heavenly General.

While running, Chu Danqing also heard the Miri leader's words.

The so-called "Feeder" should be the elephant-headed god.

"Open your mouth!" Chu Danqing said immediately.

Da Bao also cooperated very well and opened his mouth.

Then Chu Danqing took out various consumables used to increase attributes, movement speed, etc., and threw them into Da Bao's mouth.

Da Bao didn't even chew and swallowed them directly.

As these temporary strength-boosting consumables took effect, Da Bao's speed increased by a large margin.

But even so, Chu Danqing could hear the sound of something approaching from behind.

The Miri leader had already caught up.

Chu Danqing had a plan in mind; his real goal was not to let Da Bao speed up to shake off the Miri leader.

Da Bao was carrying five people now; no matter how fast he was, it was limited.

Not to mention that this cave was dark and rugged, which already affected movement speed.

There was no possibility of shaking off the Miri leader; his real goal was to hold out until the white-furred monster.

The other party guarding here was likely to prevent the Feeder's statue and the Miri people from leaving the cave.

So in terms of strength, it must be far superior to the Miri leader.

"Despicable human, become the food of the great Feeder." The Miri leader's voice came.

Chu Danqing picked up the 100,000-lumen flashlight and shone it.

Relying on its own powerful strength, the other party directly ignored the physiological discomfort caused by the sudden change from dark to bright.

Borrowing this brilliance, Chu Danqing also saw the other party's appearance clearly; the spiral-shaped wound on its chest was covered by a huge elephant trunk.

The area extended by the elephant trunk was a layer of thick darkness that even the 100,000-lumen flashlight could not illuminate.

This was also normal; after all, it was just an ordinary flashlight, not a quality item.

How could it illuminate the darkness brought by a god?

The Miri leader revealed a ferocious grin and threw the stone hammer toward Chu Danqing and the others.

Da Bao's perception and instinct were a step faster; the whistling wind brushed past Rudolf's hair and smashed into the cave wall.

This made Rudolf's scalp tingle, his expression filled with terror.

Just a little bit more, and his head would have been smashed to pieces.

"White, here, close!" Da Bao said briefly.

Among the series of consumables, there were naturally those related to increasing perception attributes, so Da Bao could better sense the arrival of the white-furred monster.

Although he still couldn't determine the location, he could confirm it had arrived.

But because Chu Danqing was using the flashlight, the white-furred monster didn't dare to come over.

That was why he reminded Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing immediately turned off the flashlight; after the light source was gone, the white-furred monster swept over their heads.

A fierce fighting sound erupted from behind.

Because of the darkness, Chu Danqing couldn't see the situation clearly, but from the movement, he could guess how intense the battle was.

"Little Chu, no, uncomfortable, getting, heavier." Da Bao galloped all the way, and when he was about to reach the cave exit, he spoke.

"I see it." Chu Danqing saw the source of Da Bao's discomfort.

Borrowing the glimmer from the cave entrance, Chu Danqing saw the elephant-headed Feeder statue behind them come to life; it was no longer made of stone.

The Feeder's forearms were stiffly bent at the elbows.

Its shoulders were low and wide, its chest and navel were exposed, it had a bloated abdomen, and a long, snake-like elephant trunk hung down.

It was dragging the dying white-furred monster and standing behind them.

The elephant trunk swung up, the end growing a trumpet-shaped suction cup mouth, full of spiral sharp teeth, similar to the mouth of a lamprey.

The spiral-shaped wound on the Miri leader's chest came from the Feeder's elephant trunk.

The Feeder's elephant trunk landed on the forehead of the white-furred monster's pale old human face and began to suck.

The white-furred monster's body began to shrivel; in less than two seconds, only a complete pelt remained, which finally turned into ashes.

Chu Danqing couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

The next moment, the Feeder's elephant trunk kept enlarging in his field of vision, and the spiral sharp teeth presented in the elephant trunk slowly unfolded.

Chu Danqing saw the deep darkness within it begin to spread.

It looked like it was about to land on him.

Fortunately, Da Bao's speed was faster, and he stepped out of the cave a step earlier.

The moment the elephant trunk reached out of the cave, the flesh and blood turned into stone, and it couldn't move a single bit more.

The Feeder statue slowly retracted the petrified elephant trunk, turning back into the appearance of flesh and blood.

This Feeder, which might be a god's avatar or a god's statue, just stared blankly at Da Bao's retreating figure.

Finally, it slowly sank into the deep darkness of the cave, and its body stiffened back into a statue.

It was as if nothing had happened; the cave was still so calm.

Chu Danqing recovered with lingering fear; it was too dangerous just now; he almost lost his life here.

"Holy crap! Holy crap!! Holy crap!!!" He also said "holy crap" three times in his heart to express his survival after the disaster.

He originally thought that his biggest obstacle to completing the mission would be the Nightmare Walkers of the Nightmare Space, but now it seemed he had to find a way to survive and reach Mayflower Bay first.

This identity might have advantages, but the danger was equally great.

The danger came from the gods and monsters in the trial world.

As for the matter of the Covenant fooling the gods? After meeting the Feeder statue, this idea had already been thrown to the back of his mind.

Such an existence was simply not something he could calculate.

"Safe, now." Da Bao also stopped, panting, and put everyone down.

Just now, he could be said to be operating at overload; he didn't feel it before because his spirit was highly concentrated.

Now that he relaxed, Da Bao's blood-red fur was already soaked with sweat.

In addition to the cold sweat from nervousness, there was also hot sweat from not dissipating heat in time.

"It's good that you're okay." Chu Danqing replied, then looked at the female lawyer named Fila and asked: "Where are the inheritance documents?"

The three female lawyers had no injuries, just excessive fright.

After all, for ordinary people, this trip was indeed too stimulating.

"Mr. William, don't worry, I kept them very intact," Fila Lambert said, reaching into the clothing at her lower back and untying a slightly bloated waist bag.

Then she opened the waist bag to show Chu Danqing, which contained densely packed documents and some seals.

These things were key materials and items used for inheritance.

"I will keep the inheritance documents, Mr. Rudolf, you don't mind, do you?" Chu Danqing spoke politely, but in reality, it was not a discussion but a notification.

When he said this, Da Bao had already reached out and forcibly snatched the waist bag from the female lawyer Fila's hand.

"Of course there is no problem, William." Rudolf didn't dare to say anything.

Chu Danqing, this reserve noble who had not yet inherited the title, had exorcism spells and knight protection, so it was indeed safer to hand them to him.

As for this violating the industry code?

At this time, to hell with the industry code.

The code didn't tell them how to deal with terrifying Miri people and elephant-headed statues.

What's more, even if he objected now, it would be useless because Chu Danqing had already obtained the inheritance documents and placed them properly.

He didn't want to experience whether his face was harder or the other party's personal bodyguard's fist was harder.

Especially since this bodyguard had just carried five people and sprinted out of the cave.

"That's good, we have to catch up with the other lawyers quickly, otherwise it won't be a good thing if we get separated again," Chu Danqing said.

"Yes, but I'm afraid we can't determine which direction they went," Rudolf said worriedly.

Chu Danqing told them to wait outside the cave, but they weren't stupid; they couldn't possibly stay right at the cave entrance; they must have been looking for a safe place.

No matter how much money there is, one must have a life to spend it.

Da Bao sniffed the air and pointed in a direction, saying: "This, way."

The time since they left the cave was not long, so Da Bao could easily distinguish the direction they left by the scent left behind.

"Let's go." Chu Danqing waved his hand, signaling to set off.

Rudolf looked surprised; he didn't expect Da Bao, this personal bodyguard, to have this ability.

Worthy of being a bodyguard used by a noble; he is just different.

The noble's personal bodyguard in front of him, who looked a bit dull, was sent by the client who entrusted them and set off with them to find William.

They didn't pay attention before; after all, there were plenty of bodyguards who were taller, stronger, uglier, or dumber; as long as they could block a knife, it was enough.

"If it's this direction... it should be our original route."

"The map says there is a monastery called Ikram Monastery; we were supposed to replenish fresh water there."

"Now that we have lost the carriage, it will probably be dark when we arrive the day after tomorrow; we have to rest there for a night before setting off," Rudolf recalled and said.

As the leader of the team, he naturally had to prepare everything, including knowing some important locations on the route.

This job originally belonged to the guide, but the guide was dead, and the map was lost.

Fortunately, he remembered the general route, so it wouldn't be wrong in general.

Even if it was wrong, it didn't matter; Mayflower Bay was a famous port in the Golden Eagle Federation, not some nameless small place.

Just find a town and buy another map; it's just that after losing the guide, the expected arrival time will probably be delayed quite a bit.

"Oh? I remember it's a famous health resort, which later became depressed because of some scandal, that Ikram Monastery?" Chu Danqing asked.

William's memory contained some memories of this monastery.

"Yes, it is said that it was a murder case formed because of an incestuous taboo, but that was thirty years ago," Rudolf didn't know very well either.

Chu Danqing narrowed his eyes; why did he have an inexplicable sense of déjà vu that something was going to happen again?
