The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 747 - 744: Fierce Beast Reveals Itself
Rustling, rustling, rustling——
It sounded like the wind blowing through leaves, faint and subtle, yet upon closer listening, one would realize it wasn’t the sound of leaves but of something rapidly approaching.
The sound stopped right in front of the School Clinic.
Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue peered through the dense lotus leaves, unable to see clearly what was in front of them.
They only heard a faint gasp of surprise, akin to one made by a person.
Something was rapidly heading towards them.
A Fierce Beast!
The brows of the two women knitted together as they held their breath.
A splashing of water sounded; it seemed the Fierce Beast had jumped into the pond.
Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue exchanged glances, preparing to reveal themselves and seize the culprit red-handed.
But at that moment, they suddenly heard a scream.
"Miaow!!!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
A white figure leaped out of the pond.
Take action!
Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue sprang out, and beside the pond, a mountain cat with brown-gray fur and the size of a small calf lay crouched on the ground.
A cat?
Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue were also taken aback; they hadn’t expected that this Fierce Beast causing such uproar at Qingtian Academy was actually a feline Spiritual Beast.
Of course, it was different from regular cats.
It was larger, with long, knife-like claws extending from its paws, its fur dark and glossy. Its eyes were as big as copper bells, currently filled with anger and pain.
The cause of the mountain cat’s screams was not other; they were the small crayfish in the pond.
Calling them small crayfish was somewhat of an understatement; they were more aptly described as Combat Lobsters.
The few crayfish in the Medical Hall’s pond had grown dozens of times larger, and they possessed a pair of powerful large pincers.
The Jade Pure Spring that Xin Lin had poured into the pond during the day had induced another transformation in their bodies.
The large pincers gleamed with a cold light, even sharper than blades.
Their bodies were marked with red patterns, true warriors of their kind!
The Combat Lobsters clearly had a strong protective instinct for the Spiritual Spring in the pond; therefore, as soon as the mountain cat approached, they launched an unhesitating attack.
The mountain cat, lured by the strong scent of the Spiritual Spring, had just bent down to drink when it was attacked by several Combat Lobsters.
A Combat Lobster clung to its tongue, and one was attached to each of its front paws; the three lobsters gripped it fiercely, causing the mountain cat to cry out in pain.
"Capture it."
Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue had been in ambush for two days, finally encountering their target and were not about to let it slip away so easily.
Xin Lin gathered her energy, and Murong Ziyue swept out her leg, both moving simultaneously to surround the mountain cat.
The mountain cat, in intense pain, saw the two approaching and a flicker of panic crossed its eyes. It spat out a breath of Fire Spirit to repel the Combat Lobsters, but their shells were exceedingly tough, impervious to the fire.
The mountain cat quickly dodged the attacks from Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue, its movements swift as previously described by Murong Ziyue.
After a few dodges, it narrowly escaped harm.
As dawn was about to break, voices came from ahead.
"Who’s there!"
Several members of the patrol team approached swiftly.
Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue paused, and the mountain cat seized the opportunity to escape.
"It’s us; we have found the Fierce Beast responsible for the attacks."
Following the source of the voices, Murong Ziyue saw Long Qingchen and several students from the Martial Arts Academy approaching.
