Chapter 302 Feeder

"Xiao, Chu, is dead." The power of blood rage on Da Bao's body grew thicker and thicker, making him look like a blood beast.

Chu Danqing understood what he meant. When Da Bao said someone was dead, he wasn't referring to the leader of the Rice Grain People, but rather the Pure Yang Heavenly General.

While fleeing, Chu Danqing also overheard the words of the leader of the Rice Grain People.

The so-called feeder should be the elephant-headed god.

"Open your mouth!" Chu Danqing said immediately.

Da Bao cooperated perfectly 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; he just swallowed it whole.

With the temporary power-boosting consumables taking effect, Da Bao's speed increased dramatically.

Even so, Chu Danqing could still hear the sounds approaching from behind.

The leader of the Rice Grain People has caught up.

Chu Danqing was aware of this; his real purpose was not to help Da Bao get rid of the Rice Grain Man leader more quickly.

Da Bao is currently leading five people, so even if they go fast, there are limits.

Not to mention, the cave is dark and rugged, which already slows down movement.

There was absolutely no way he could get rid of the leader of the Rice Grain People; his real goal was to hold out until he encountered that white-furred monster.

The enemy is likely stationed here to prevent the Feeder's statue and the Rice Grain People from leaving the cave.

Therefore, in terms of strength, they are bound to be far superior to the leader of the Rice Grain People.

"Despicable humans, become food for the great feeder," came the voice of the leader of the Rice Grain People.

Chu Danqing casually picked up a 100,000-lumen flashlight and shone it on.

Relying on their superior strength, the opponent completely ignored the physical discomfort caused by the sudden change from darkness to light.

By the light, Chu Danqing could see the other party's appearance clearly; the spiral wound on his chest was covered by a huge elephant trunk.

The area extending from the elephant's trunk is a dense darkness that even a 100,000-lumen flashlight cannot illuminate.

That's normal, since it's just a regular flashlight, not a high-quality item.

How can we illuminate the darkness brought about by the gods?

The leader of the Rice Grain People grinned maliciously and hurled his stone hammer at Chu Danqing and his companions.

Da Bao's senses and instincts were a step ahead; the whistling wind grazed past a Rudolf's hair and slammed into the cave wall.

This sent chills down Rudolf's spine, and his expression was filled with terror.

It was just a hair's breadth away from having his head smashed.

"Bai, he's here, close!" Da Bao said briefly.

Among the consumables, there were naturally some that increased perception attributes, which allowed Da Bao to better sense the arrival of the white-furred monster.

Although their exact location is still uncertain, it is certain that they have arrived.

But because Chu Danqing had a flashlight on, the white-furred monster didn't dare to come any closer.

That's why I reminded Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing immediately turned off the flashlight. Without a light source, the white-furred monster swept over their heads.

Instantly, the sounds of fierce fighting erupted from behind.

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

"Xiao Chu, no, it's getting more and more uncomfortable, heavier and heavier," Da Bao said as they sped along and were about to reach the cave exit.

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

Using the dim light coming from the cave entrance, Chu Danqing saw that the elephant-headed, human-bodied predator statue behind him had come to life and was no longer made of stone.

The feeder's forearm was stiffly bent at the elbow.

He had short, broad shoulders, a bare chest and navel, a bloated belly, and a long, serpentine trunk.

They stood behind them, dragging the barely alive white-furred monster.

The elephant's trunk waved, with a trumpet-shaped sucker at the end, and its mouth was full of spiraling sharp teeth, similar to that of a lamprey.

The spiral wound on the chest of the leader of the Rice Grain People came from the trunk of the feeder.

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

The white-furred monster's body began to shrivel, and in less than two seconds, only a complete pelt remained before turning to ashes.

Chu Danqing couldn't help but swallow.

The next moment, the feeder's trunk magnified in his field of vision, and the spiraling fangs inside slowly unfolded.

Chu Danqing saw the deep darkness within begin to spread.

It was about to hit him.

Fortunately, Da Bao was faster and stepped out of the cave first.

The moment the elephant's trunk emerged from the cave, its flesh and blood turned to stone, and it could no longer move an inch.

The predator statue slowly retracted its petrified trunk, transforming back into its fleshy form.

This being, perhaps an avatar of a deity or a predator of a divine statue, stared blankly at Da Bao's departing figure. Finally, it slowly disappeared into the deep darkness of the cave, its body stiffening back into a statue.

As if nothing had happened, the cave remained as peaceful as ever.

Chu Danqing, still shaken, realized how dangerous it had been; she had almost died there.

"Holy shit! Holy shit!! Holy shit!!" He mentally repeated "Holy shit!" three times to express his relief at surviving the ordeal.

He had thought that the biggest obstacle to completing his mission would be the Nightmare Walkers in Nightmare Space, but now it seemed that he would have to figure out how to get to Mayflower Bay alive first.

This identity may have advantages, but it also carries considerable risks.

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

As for the idea of ​​the covenant deceiving the gods? He had already put that thought out of his mind after encountering the Feeder statue.

Such beings are simply beyond my ability to calculate.

"It's safe now." Da Bao stopped and, panting, put everyone down.

He was working overtime just now; he hadn't felt it before because he was so focused.

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

Besides the cold sweat from nervousness, there is also hot sweat from inadequate heat dissipation.

"It's good that everything is alright." Chu Danqing replied, then looked at the female lawyer named Fila and asked, "Where are the will documents?"

The three female lawyers were not injured, but were extremely frightened.

After all, this line of work is indeed too exciting for ordinary people.

“Mr. William, rest assured, I have kept it in perfect condition,” Fila Lambert said, reaching into her lower garment to remove a slightly bulky fanny pack.

He then opened his waist bag and showed it to Chu Danqing, which contained a dense collection of documents and some seals.

These items are all key materials and objects used for inheritance.

"I'll keep the estate documents safe, Mr. Rudolf. You don't mind, do you?" Chu Danqing said politely, but it wasn't a discussion at all; it was a notification.

As he said this, Da Bao had already reached out and forcibly snatched the fanny pack from the female lawyer Fila's hand.

“Of course, no problem, William.” Rudolf didn’t dare say anything more.

Chu Danqing, a prospective nobleman who has not yet inherited the title, possesses exorcism spells and is protected by knights, making it safer to entrust the title to him.

As for whether this violates industry standards?

That's when you have to forget about industry rules.

The rules didn't tell them how lawyers should deal with the terrifying rice-grain people and elephant-headed statues.

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

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

Especially just now, this bodyguard bravely fought his way out of the cave, carrying five people through him.

"That's good. We need to catch up with the other lawyers quickly, otherwise getting separated again won't be a good thing," Chu Danqing said.

"Yes, but we probably can't be sure 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 entrance. They would definitely need to find a safe place.

No matter how much money you have, you have to be alive to spend it.

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

It hadn't been long since they left the cave, so the lingering scent allowed Da Bao to easily discern the direction they had gone.

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

Rudolf looked surprised, not expecting that Da Bao's bodyguard would have this ability.

As expected of bodyguards used by nobles, they are truly exceptional.

The seemingly simple-minded nobleman's bodyguard in front of them was sent by their client to accompany them on their journey to find William.

They hadn't paid much attention before, after all, there were bodyguards who were taller, stronger, uglier, or even a bit dim-witted; as long as they could take the blows, that was enough.

"This direction should be our original route."

"The map says there's a monastery called Ikramu Monastery. We were supposed to replenish our water supply there."

"Now that we've lost our carriage, it will most likely be dark by the time we arrive, so we'll have to rest there for the night before we set off again," Rudolf recalled.

As the team leader, he naturally had to prepare everything, including having a general idea of ​​some of the important locations along the route.

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

Fortunately, he remembered the general route, so he shouldn't make any major mistakes.

Even if something goes wrong, it doesn't matter. Mayflower Bay is a famous port in the Golden Eagle Federation, not some unknown little place.

All I need to do is find a town and buy another map, but without a guide, the expected arrival time will likely be delayed considerably.

"Oh? I remember it was a famous health resort, but it gradually declined after some kind of scandal broke out, that Ikramu Monastery?" Chu Danqing asked.

William has some memories of this monastery.

"Yes, it's said to be a murder case stemming from the taboo of incest, but that happened thirty years ago." Rudolf wasn't entirely sure either.

Chu Danqing narrowed her eyes, feeling a strange sense that something bad was about to happen again.
