I can understand what the furry creatures are saying, and I've become the number one beast tame

Chapter 165 It can't be a snake egg, can it?
On the left are rows of round holes, and on the right are rows of round holes.

Further ahead, there are rows of suspended cave walls.

"Wow! This is starting to feel like whack-a-mole..."

At this moment, Nan Ran felt that he was probably missing a hammer.

Wouldn't it be so much fun to start hitting it with lots of banging and clanging?
[Go that way, and you'll find the water lily bushes.]
The White Raccoon King hopped twice on Nan Ran's shoulder and pointed ahead.

Nan Ran looked in the direction its claws pointed and saw a vast expanse of white... stalactites?

It doesn't really look like a stalactite.

Nan Ran searched her mind for a long time for adjectives, but found that she didn't know how to describe the white things growing on the rocks in front of her.

But this thing definitely has nothing to do with plant fruits.

"Mimi..."

Nan Ran turned her inquisitive gaze toward the Frostbeast, full of anticipation.

After looking at it, the Frostbeast shook its head: [I'm not entirely sure either...]
It looks a lot like a water lily, but something just doesn't feel right.

Especially!!

The White Raccoon King said that if his rat offspring touched this thing, it would turn into a black, viscous liquid and release poisonous gas.

The Frostbeast was confused.

Because it had never seen a real water-glow fruit, it only knew a general description of its characteristics.

The things in front of it did indeed look very much like the water-glow fruit it knew.

But it always remembered what the White Fox King had said, and it couldn't help but feel a little uneasy...

Since it concerned the life and safety of the Flaming Lion, it dared not make a rash decision.

Otherwise, it might really harm the owner's pet...

The Frostbeast lowered its head unconsciously.

The Flaming Lion had arrived at its master's side earlier and must have had a deeper bond with it. Nan Ran, as if seeing through its little thoughts, stepped forward and patted the Frostbeast's little deer head.

"Don't think too much."

She looked at the clusters of water-glow fruits on the wall and made a quick decision: "Even if these aren't water-glow fruits, it doesn't matter."

"Since we're already here, whether it smells good or bad, poisonous or not, there must be a reason why these things are growing here!"

"Let's pick them and take them home first!"

It can't be a bunch of snake eggs instead of water-glow fruit, can it?

Although they do look quite similar...

Especially their close-fitting shape, like an egg that has crossed a mountain peak.

Why am I getting more and more scared the more I think about it?
According to the White Raccoon King, this thing must not be touched, or it will turn into a black, sticky, gelatinous substance.

Nan Ran then commanded the Frostbeast to wrap the entire Watery Fruit Cluster with frost, and then cut it off along with the stone wall, covering it with frost to preserve it.

After trying it once, just as Nan Ran had expected, the frozen water berries were not damaged.

Indeed, freezing means immortality!

Working together, the man and the beast picked three clusters of Watery Fruit in less than half an hour.

It's just a bit too tiring.

The walls of this deep underground palace are made of some unknown material, and they are exceptionally difficult to break down.

Even the dagger that the original owner's cheap former sect leader father left behind, which was said to be able to cut through iron like mud, could not easily leave a mark on the walls of this underground city.

You'll have to use every ounce of your strength...

Ouch! Ouch!
Nan Ran wiped away her sweat and was about to continue working hard when the golden retriever that was running around at her feet suddenly started barking loudly at her.
