Chapter 67 Safety?
Chapter 67 Safety?
Lynn's side.
As soon as he jumped off the carriage, he attracted the attention of the giant mud toad.
He didn't even launch an attack.
It was as if he had always been the monster's target.
Lynn, however, didn't seem to care at all.
In any case, as long as we can lure it away, that's fine.
Since it was a summoned creature, Lynn didn't believe its stamina was limitless.
Moreover, it's not that he's incapable of shaking it off.
For him, a monster three stories tall might be a big deal.
But to nature, this size is nothing.
If he runs into the cave, he might be able to escape.
Thinking this, Lynn ran wildly while scanning the surrounding mountains.
The giant toad leaped up and pounced towards them.
Lynn swerved sharply to the side, barely managing to avoid it.
He immediately got up and ran wildly towards the mountains.
That was what he was thinking, but unexpectedly the toad suddenly stuck out its foul-smelling tongue with barbs and quickly attacked Lynn.
The monster's tongue moves much faster than it jumps.
Lynn was startled and quickly activated [Swift Legs].
The speed increased instantly.
He suddenly created some distance, leaving the toad behind him.
Lynn was getting closer and closer to the mountains.
He hurriedly searched for a cave.
The giant toad leaped again and pounced.
However, because the distance between them was relatively large this time, Lynn was not in a hurry.
He ran along the direction of the mountain range.
We searched the whole way, but we didn't find a single cave!
Damn it, why doesn't this damn mountain have any caves?!
Lynn cursed under his breath as he prepared to climb the mountain.
This monster is so big, it couldn't possibly be able to climb mountains!
If he climbs to the top of the mountain and stays there, he can starve to death!
After all, he had quite a bit of dry food and low-alcohol liquor in his storage ring.
With that in mind, Lynn chose a steep mountain and climbed up it in a few steps.
By the time the toad arrived, he had already climbed very high.
Lynn hung halfway up the mountain.
He looked down at the toads staring at him longingly from the foot of the mountain and laughed.
"Ha! Now you're dumbfounded!"
Lynn smiled.
The giant toad roared helplessly at the foot of the mountain.
It wanted to jump up the mountain.
Finally, however, he was dragged down by the slippery slime on his body and his underdeveloped toes, and fell down in a grayish heap.
Lynn was even happier.
The monster below puffed out its cheeks, as if holding its breath.
Immediately afterwards, a high-speed mud ball mixed with mud, rocks, weeds, and saliva rushed towards Lynn.
Lynn's expression changed, and his smile vanished instantly.
This beast can even attack from a distance!
He quickly let go of his hand, intending to jump to the side.
Unable to accelerate in mid-air, he was caught off guard and unable to dodge in time.
The mud ball was about to hit him.
At the critical moment.
A slender figure caught him and dodged the mud ball just in time.
Lynn came to his senses and stared wide-eyed at the figure holding him.
"Tina, what are you doing following me here!"
Tina, with Lynn by her side, kept dodging the giant toad's relentless mud ball attacks, having no time to pay him any attention.
Lynn quickly reminded her, "Tina, fly to the top of the mountain; its mud ball can't reach that far!"
Tina nodded.
After dodging a mud ball, they climbed upwards with Lynn.
Soon, they landed on the mountaintop.
Tina breathed a sigh of relief.
Lynn suppressed his doubts and did not immediately press Tina about her abilities.
He took out a water pouch and a few slices of bread from his storage ring and handed them over.
Then he took out a blanket and covered Tina with it.
Lynn was preparing to start a fire to keep warm.
Tina, however, was getting restless.
She looked a little nervous and hesitated before asking:
"Brother, aren't you curious why I've become like this?"
Lynn was squatting on the ground building a fire, without turning his head.
"Whatever secrets you have, you're still my sister. It's your freedom to tell or not."
Tina was touched and was about to say something.
Lynn's next sentence quickly followed.
"However, as your brother, I do need to know about this."
So, why is it that you've become a superhuman too?
Lynn cast a curious glance his way.
Tina swallowed back her emotions.
She pouted.
"Actually, I don't know either, it just happened suddenly."
"Tsk."
Lynn pursed her lips.
I don't know why you're asking me this.
The night gradually deepened.
The campfire flickered in the night wind.
The monster at the bottom of the mountain was still struggling to climb up, but it always fell back down after climbing only a short distance.
So Lynn told Tina to go to sleep first, while he prepared to keep an eye on this stinky toad.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard a noise behind me.
Lynn quickly drew his sword and cautiously stared at the other side.
A figure appeared.
Lynn shielded Tina behind him, lowered his breath, and prepared for battle.
"Hmph, so you're not welcoming me at all? Did I bother you two perverted siblings?"
It's Violet.
She climbed up with a sour face.
Her hair and clothes were a mess.
The area was covered with burrs, weeds, twigs, and other such things.
As someone who usually prides herself on being elegant and regards elegance as a principle of life, you can imagine how angry she is right now.
In particular, she also experienced the absurd situation of two outrageous guys jumping out of the car.
In short, she was absolutely furious.
If she hadn't seen a fire and smoke rising from a mountaintop late at night, she wouldn't have known whether they were dead or alive.
Lynn immediately sheathed his sword and said with a fawning smile, "Oh, isn't this Lady Violet? You're really amazing, you were able to find me by smelling the scent so late at night."
Violet stared at him coldly, as if he were looking at a dead man.
Lynn smiled awkwardly and scratched the back of his head.
"Haha, why aren't you laughing? Looks like my joke wasn't very appropriate..."
Violet clenched her fists and took a deep breath.
"Lady, grace, lady, grace..."
She kept muttering something in a low, rapid voice, making Lynn almost suspect that she was about to go crazy.
Fortunately, she recovered.
Violet sat on a nearby rock, glancing at him sideways, and said coldly:
"So what are your plans next? I'm asking you what your plans are next without me being here?"
Lynn puffed out his chest and laughed, "I refuse to answer that question, because there's no possibility that Lady Violet won't come back to save me."
Violet snorted, her expression softening considerably.
Lynn breathed a sigh of relief.
He's starting to understand Violet better now.
In short, it's like a donkey that's been pushed along.
Saying nice things has an excellent effect.
"I'm thirsty, give me some water."
Violet coldly extended her hand.
Lynn quickly handed over the water pouch.
She didn't even wipe the bottle opening before tilting her head back and taking a big gulp of water.
Her behavior at this moment was nothing like that of a lady; she was more like a hero from Liangshan.
Of course, he only dared to say these things in his heart.
Violet wiped her mouth and put the water pouch into her storage ring.
Her tone was somewhat like a helpless resignation.
"I've already called my father over."
Lynn immediately perked up.
They even summoned the Earl! Doesn't that mean everything's settled?
But before Lynn could have much time to be happy, Violet immediately poured cold water on his joy.
"But don't be too happy yet. My father came only to stop the archbishop or cardinal who were chasing after us."
As for the monster below, we'll have to deal with it ourselves.
Otherwise, we might be killed by the church's pursuers before my father arrives.
Lynn's expression froze.
This situation is somewhat difficult.
How can they solve it in such a short time?
We can't really let it starve to death, can we?
Can such a huge lump of food really starve to death in just one night?
Just as everyone fell silent.
Beside the campfire.
Tina weakly raised her hand.
"Um, maybe I can take down that stinky toad."
