My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome
Chapter 384 - Chapter 384 Chapter 383 The Contract (Vote Request)

Chapter 384: Chapter 383: The Contract (Vote Request) Chapter 384: Chapter 383: The Contract (Vote Request) The endless snowy plains were flat and vast, the howling cold wind smoothing over the snow as though it were a white sheet of paper.

Yet on this white sheet, there now appeared a long drag mark.

At the very front of the drag mark lay a person, scraping at the icy snow with both hands, inching forward little by little.

“Everyone must die…haha…everyone must die.”

The raspy, weak voice dissipated in the cold wind. Valery had fallen into a semi-conscious state; his legs were hollow below the knees.

That was after his snow boots wore through, his legs turned to icy lumps, and then shattered to pieces.

The blood that flowed out immediately froze into chunks of ice, then flowed and froze again, leaving behind glaringly crimson ice gravel on the snowfield.

Before long, Valery seemed motionless for quite a while, as the bitter cold wind piled snow over him, leaving only a vaguely bulging mound of snow.

“Roar!”

The intimidating roar echoed across the snowy wilderness as Qiuqiu fluttered its wings and descended slowly.

The winds and snow ceased around it, and the snow on the ground melted rapidly.

Shao Zifeng jumped down from Qiuqiu’s back, followed by Lingling and the little deer.

Surrounded by the three companions, Shao Zifeng surveyed the environment around them.

“The trail disappears here…this meltwater,”

Shao Zifeng squatted down and noticed the meltwater tinged with a hint of red.

The trail they had been following was Valery’s, but due to the lack of cover on the plains, the trail was quickly buried by the accumulating snow. However, the red tinge in the meltwater caught his attention.

Looking up, the rapidly melting snow revealed more and more of the red liquid.

After searching around, the peripheral light didn’t give back any energy feedback.

Just as he was about to go forward for a closer look, Qiuqiu rested its huge head on his shoulder, whining like a puppy.

“Alright, alright, I won’t go. You do it then,”

“Whimper~”

Qiuqiu happily nuzzled his face with its big head and then stood up, its fiery dragon wings unfurling behind it.

Boom!

With a beat of its wings, a fierce gust of hot air instantly melted the snow in front of it, spreading out in a fan shape.

Shao Zifeng turned his body and shielded his eyes with his arm. He was alright, being near the less windy area by Qiuqiu’s belly. Lingling and the little deer weren’t so fortunate; being light-bodied, they were blown away by the gust before they knew it.

“Yo~”

The little deer reacted quickly, extending a few vines to entangle Shao Zifeng’s body, anchoring itself firmly.

As for Lingling…

“I am Lingling, the scribe! Even faced with the storms of hell, I shall not submit… Perish, ah ah ah ah—-”

Listening to the voice rising within, Lingling’s figure gradually disappeared into the blizzard.

Shao Zifeng helplessly pressed his forehead, realizing it was his fault. If he hadn’t drunk alcohol, he wouldn’t have done such a thing, and not long after that, Lingling had been evolving.

So long had passed, yet its memory still lingered before the evolution.

Quite the trouble indeed.

After a moment of reflection and waiting for the turbulence to weaken, Shao Zifeng lowered his arm.

The vast swath of snow in front had been cleared, revealing the smooth, mirror-like ice cap covered with puddles of water, and a person lay there.

“Qiuqiu, stay behind me.”

“Whimper~”

Shao Zifeng patted Qiuqiu and walked slowly toward the person.

The little deer followed beside them with a somewhat resentful look, glancing frequently in the direction where Lingling was blown away.

After all, if something happened to that idiot, as a symbiont, it would be unlucky too.

Stepping on the melted snow, ripples caused the meltwater to spread.

At a distance from the person, the little deer’s eyes shimmered as two vines extended and entangled the body, flipping it over.

Seeing the familiar face, it was indeed Valery who had run away before.

Only now his ashen face with disheveled beard, wide-open mouth, already lacked the breath of life.

Shao Zifeng remained vigilant and waded through the water, approaching Valery slowly.

As he crouched down to check, Shao Zifeng suddenly pulled out “Karen family’s Glory” from his snow boots and thrust it towards Valery’s chest.

Thud.

Hand raised, blade fell, and the dagger went directly into his chest.

[Name]: Karen family’s Glory

[Attribute]: Light

[Quality]:

[Status]: Intact

[Effect]: Evil Breaking: Adds ‘Soul Burning’ status to dark/ethereal attribute targets.

[Description]: The ancestors of the Karen family excelled in witch-hunting. To commend their contributions, the Church crafted this blessed dagger as a reward. At the request of Karen’s ancestors, the Archbishop personally inscribed ‘Karen family’s Glory’ as the name of the dagger.

Clutching the handle, Shao Zifeng’s eyes gleamed as he looked at Valery’s corpse, knowing the dagger, though not of high quality, had a special effect on dark and ethereal mutant creatures.

Although he was still unclear about the specific function of this effect, judging from the name, it should be quite powerful.

After waiting for a moment and seeing no reaction from Valery’s body, Shao Zifeng slowly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it into another spot.

Throughout the process, his expression did not change at all, as if he were stabbing a piece of dead pork.

After multiple attempts, Shao Zifeng felt somewhat disappointed.

It seems that guy has already left.

That’s right.

Valery’s life had already come to an end. Staying any longer was pointless.

After putting away the dagger, Shao Zifeng seemed somewhat unwilling as he searched Valery’s body.

Besides some ordinary trinkets, there was nothing of value. Meanwhile, Lingling, who had returned at some unknown time, found a few coins and squinted her eyes happily.

“Qiuqiu, Lingling, little deer, we’re going back.”

“Woo~”

“Yo~”

“Are we embarking on a new journey, Duke Sir!”

“Lingling, be normal.”

“Yes, Duke Sir!”

“Stop it!!”

“Understood, Duke Sir!”

Boom!

Qiuqiu’s flapping wings slowly took off, and accompanied by Shao Zifeng’s exasperated voice, they disappeared into the snowstorm.

After a while, one of Valery’s bony, white fingers moved.

Then came the arm, head, body.

Slim tendrils of dark mist churned around his body, with dense runes entwining his arm.

Thump.

The stiff arm propped up the ground, and the overturned body struggled to lie face down on the ground again.

With a claw-like grasp, Valery continued to crawl forward mechanically.

“Heh, I thought you would hold off a little longer.”

Valery’s body froze, and stiffly turned its head!

Whoosh!

“Squeak–”

With a flash of cold light, the dagger was nailed straight into Valery’s forehead, then a few flashes like electric currents shimmered on the blade, erupting into a blinding bright light.

Valery’s body convulsed violently, emitting agonized screams as the dark mist around him began to roil.

“Damn humans!! Didn’t you leave already!! Ah–”

Shao Zifeng watched with a smirk as Valery writhed.

“Because of the contract, after all, you were supposed to take him out of Antarctica, and not even a single part can be broken, right?”
