Ron muttered to himself, but did not continue to stop An Yan.

After all, the idea that the baby insect and the giant spider were related was just his speculation; he had no evidence.

Furthermore, this is a world geared towards children; perhaps the existence of the bug babies is simply to lure out the next enemy...

Tsk, now that I think about it, this guy is even more suspicious!

With An Yan around, who could rival even fantasy-level monsters, a super-level monster enhanced by darkness was easily destroyed by him.

Ron even thought that if the fight between the Night Wolf and An Yan could be animated for three seconds in an anime, it would be considered that the Night Wolf was awesome.

Therefore, unsurprisingly, the baby insect was successfully rescued by An Yan.

But the rescued baby insect looked at everyone with a hint of confusion:

"Thank... thank you for saving me, but... but who are you? I've never seen a phantom beast like you before."

The baby insect tilted its head and looked everyone over.

Ron felt there was something familiar about this statement.

It's like the Digimon are saying, 'I've never seen a Digimon like you before.'

"We are not mythical beasts, we are humans."

An Yan explained this after de-transforming.

Ron: "..."

Okay, this conversation is more like that now.

"Humans...? A type of mythical beast I've never heard of before..."

"Humans aren't mythical beasts! Seriously, let's not dwell on that! Now that we've saved it, let's get going! I really can't stand insects and the like!"

Chen Xiaolian loudly interrupted everyone's conversation.

It's clear she really dislikes insects.

Chen Xiaolian's resistance was clearly written on her face, and An Yan could see it too.

To be considerate of his teammates' feelings, An Yan had no choice but to say to the bug baby:

"I'm sorry, we have very important things to do, so we can't protect you all the time. Do you have anywhere safe to go? If not..."

An Yan turned around and glanced back as he spoke.

His idea was really simple and easy to understand; it was obvious that An Yan wanted to send the baby insect to the peace dove.

Ron sensed An Yan's thoughts and hesitated to speak.

It took them three or four hours to walk from the doves of peace to here. If they want to send the baby insects back, won't it take another three or four hours?

Ron thought this method wouldn't work.

Fortunately, the baby bug wasn't without places to go. Hearing An Yan's question, the baby bug replied:

"Yes! My village is nearby! If possible, please take me back to my village."

“The village?” Ron nudged Jiang Chen with his elbow as if he had just thought of something.

Jiang Chen understood immediately, took out a map and glanced at it: "If I'm not mistaken, the village where the bug baby is located should be one of the two villages on our route."

"What a coincidence..." Ron muttered to himself.

Actually, it can't really be called a coincidence.

Now that darkness has descended upon the Mythical Beast Continent, the fact that weak, real-level mythical beasts like Insect Babies can survive in such a world means that they have a protector behind them.

It could be a fantasy-level mythical beast, or it could be a large number of extraordinary mythical beasts gathered together.

Only in a similar environment can the lives of weaker mythical beasts like Insect Babies be guaranteed.

A village formed by mythical beasts is undoubtedly such a place.

However, if it's a village...

Ron glanced at the baby insect leading the way, then turned to Chen Xiaolian and suddenly said:

"We're going to the village where the bug babies live later. Why don't you wait outside?"

"Huh? Why do I have to wait outside?"

Chen Xiaolian tilted her head in confusion.

It seems she hasn't grasped the seriousness of the matter.

Just as Ron was about to explain to Chen Xiaolian, the little bug leading the way said:

"arrive."

"So fast!"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

From the time he rescued the baby bug to the time he led the way to the village, it only took five or six minutes. I never expected that the village where the baby bug lived was so close.

It should have taken much longer to walk along the normal route...

Led by the little bug, everyone saw the full view of the village where the little bug lived.

This is a village made up of tall trees and various treehouses.

Wooden houses built from leaves and branches stand high above the trees, and between these treehouses, silvery silk threads form interconnected paths.

On these silk threads...

It's a baby insect!

So many... baby bugs!

"So many bugs..."

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Xiaolian unsurprisingly fainted on the spot.

Seeing Chen Xiaolian lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, Ron helplessly shrugged.

See? I told you you should have stayed outside.

Chapter 19 The Village Guardian, the Butterfly Fairy

"So many baby bugs..."

Jiang Chen's hand holding the illustrated guide stiffened. Even though he wasn't particularly afraid of insects, seeing so many caterpillars, each half a person's height, gathered together was still quite terrifying.

Even though most of the mythical beasts in the Mythical Beast Continent are quite cute.

“It seems to be a village made up of baby bugs,” Ron added from the side.

His words seemed like nonsense, but Ron immediately followed up with a curious question:

"But if there are only baby insects, what will happen to the safety of this village? There isn't even a single fantasy-level mythical beast."

The ranking system for mythical beasts in the Mythical Beast Continent is generally quite strict.

Even with the factors of attribute and racial advantages, it is rare for a lower-ranking unit to defeat a higher-ranking unit.

Although An Yan and Ron's contracted magical beasts are of the extraordinary level, they are actually more like fantasy level due to the strength of the magical beast warriors.

Even so, they still need to unite to defeat the Thorn Witch, who is also a fantasy-level being.

While the Thorn Witch herself was strengthened, this also means that the power gap between phantom beasts is basically insurmountable.

So, if this village really only has insect babies, a group of real-world level mythical beasts, or even just any extraordinary level mythical beast, could probably wipe them out.

Unless... there are other types of mythical beasts besides the baby bug.

"Because we have Lady Butterfly Fairy here," Baby Insect explained in response to Ron's question.

“Butterfly Fairy…” Ron looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen flipped through the encyclopedia: "Hmm, a butterfly fairy, one of the evolution paths of baby insects, it's small and cute... uh, a fantasy-level mythical beast?"

"Hey! You lot! What are you trying to do to my lovely children?!"

Just as Jiang Chen finished speaking, a tiny figure, no bigger than a palm, suddenly rushed down from above and shouted at the crowd in a very aggressive tone.

The tiny figure, no bigger than a palm, is entirely pink, with a pair of large and beautiful butterfly wings on its back and snail-like antennae on its forehead.

However, its overall appearance is closer to that of a human girl, only its size is only the size of a normal person's palm.

This mythical beast, which resembles a fairy from a fairy tale, is the Butterfly Fairy.

The guardians of this village.

"Ah...you...you've misunderstood, I didn't mean to hurt him!" An Yan quickly explained when he saw the tiny figure, no bigger than a palm, run out.

At this moment, the baby insect also said, "Lady Butterfly Fairy! I was in danger outside just now, and these people saved me!"

In a world geared towards children, misunderstandings arise quickly and are resolved just as quickly.

When she learned that everyone was the savior of the baby insects, the butterfly fairy's attitude immediately changed.

She led everyone to the treehouse above, poured them tea, and then said to them:

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you earlier. It's just that the forest has become very strange lately. Many of the magical beasts have become irritable and have been attacking our village frequently. Since you are unfamiliar faces, that's why I acted that way earlier."
