My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome
Chapter 424 - Chapter 424 423 Chapter Failed Deception

Chapter 424: 423 Chapter: Failed Deception Chapter 424: 423 Chapter: Failed Deception Looking at those cold eyes, Shao Zifeng felt a tightening in his heart.

“Gurgle.”

Yaya’s throat swelled, emitting a low growl.

“Don’t be impulsive.”

Shao Zifeng grabbed its forelimb and slowly closed his eyes.

In the void of perception, grey human silhouettes were outlined, busily surrounding a circular Array that was emanating an energy reaction.

With the lesson learned previously, the eight grey-lined Mutant Creatures did not stray far, cautiously guarding the surroundings.

Among these silhouettes, only one was different from the others, as hints of red appeared in the lines that formed his outline.

It signified that the person was suspecting someone might be spying here.

Just as Shao Zifeng thought he would come to investigate, a female human silhouette approached the man.

“Yidan, brother.”

The youth known as Yidan was the leader of these people; he was tall, and his thin clothing could not hide his muscular contours, giving him a steady and reliable appearance.

Feeling his arm being grabbed, the coldness in Yidan’s eyes slightly dissipated as he turned his head to look at the girl, his determined facial features softening a lot.

“Kadu, aren’t you supposed to be learning Array setting with your sister Casie? Did you need something from me?”

The girl, Kadu, subtly differed from the others; her skin was delicate, slightly glowing differently, with silver-white hair flowing like ice silk.

Though she shared the same physical traits, Kadu standing alongside others appeared more pristine and pure.

“Can’t I seek out brother Yidan if there’s nothing wrong?”

Kadu’s large eyes, shining bright blue, somewhat dazzled Yidan.

“Of course, you can, who would deny our little princess?”

Yidan indulgently tapped the tiny bridge of the girl’s nose, causing her to wrinkle it and reveal a pair of small fangs with a smile.

“But not right now, I suspect there could be natives here. To prevent our movements from being exposed, I need to investigate.”

Ignoring the girl’s discontent, Yidan raised his head to look towards where Shao Zifeng was hiding, “You should stay here and learn the methods of setting up Arrays from your sister Casie.”

“Natives!”

The girl disregarded Yidan’s latter words, holding onto his arm without letting go, her volume significantly increased, clearly very interested in the “natives” Yidan mentioned.

“Brother Yidan, let me handle the search for the natives.”

“No!” Yidan decisively refused.

“Why not.” Kadu pouted ineffectually, “Besides, I have Amao to protect me!”

Not far away, a blue ice cat that was on guard lifted its head and ran over with light steps.

“See, Amao will take good care of me.” The girl tugged at the whiskers of the large cat, “Amao, you’ll protect me, right?”

“Umm~”

The large cat squinted, enjoying its master’s “petting”.

“When I say no, it means no.” Yidan rejected coldly.

“Why not!” Kadu angrily flung Yidan’s arm away, “Father brought me here to temper myself, but you wouldn’t let me do anything. How am I supposed to grow?”

“How am I supposed to survive the next Muda Conference? Even if I luckily survive, do you not know what happens to a clan girl who fails?”

As she spoke, Kadu put on a pitiful expression, “Brother Yidan, do you really bear to see me marry into another clan?”

Yidan looked at the pure and charming Kadu, subconsciously wanting to say he couldn’t bear it, but considering his own stature, he merely whispered, “No, as long as we can secure this continent, the clan will have a way out, and the Clan Leader won’t marry you off to someone else.”

However, while saying this, uncertainty filled Yidan’s tone, evidently very familiar with the Clan Leader’s personality.

Seeing Yidan’s softened stance, Kadu continued, “Since brother Yidan is confident in securing this land, don’t you trust me?”

On hearing her words, Yidan looked slightly startled.

Indeed, they had explored this continent several times, finding it not only scarcely populated but its “tribes” also very weak.

These “tribes” huddled in strange square houses and even wore thick clothes to keep warm every time they ventured out.

If it wasn’t for the fact they had yet to explore the entire continent, he was confident they could easily overcome those weak ‘tribes’.

As Yidan still hesitated, Kadu’s blue eyes twinkled craftily, “Brother Yidan, if you don’t decide now, that Dead Worm might just wake from its demise, and I won’t set any Arrays.”

“You girl, actually scheming against me.”

Yidan then remembered there was still a high-level Dead Worm below.

Too much time had already been wasted; if the Array wasn’t set up before the Dead Worm awakened, another tough battle would ensue.

“I can agree,” Yidan glared at Kadu impatiently.

“Hehe.” Kadu revealed a fox-like smile.

“But… Casie must accompany you.”

“Ah~” Kadu’s face immediately fell, she pouted and sighed with feigned maturity, “Alright, alright, you adults are such a hassle.”

“Casie.” Yidan gestured to another older woman, “Keep Kadu safe.”

“Okay.”

Glancing at Kadu’s retreating back, then at the largely unarranged Array, Yidan knew he couldn’t delay any longer and quickly set back to work.

Shao Zifeng had been closely monitoring the scene across from him, noting how one girl was cajoling the tall man with coquetry, shortly after which two women with two mutant creatures walked over.

In the corner of his eye, blue points of light spun, and the data on the two beasts appeared before him.

[Name]: Wilderness Ice-toothed Tiger

[Growth]: Maturity

[Condition]: Light injuries, Poison (mild)

[Strength]: Sixth Order

…

[Skills]: Ice Spur, Frost Claw, Frost Roar…

…

[Name]: Ice Claw Lizard

[Growth]: Maturity

[Condition]: Light injuries

[Strength]: Sixth Order

…

Another two mid-level creatures.

Shao Zifeng watched the two people approaching and furrowed his brows tightly.

If there had been fewer of them, he could have been confident in trying to fight.

But now there were six people, and except for the high-ranking Kobobick Beast, the others were all sixth-rank; this power was not to be underestimated.

In his hand, he only had Qiuqiu, who had just been promoted to the sixth rank.

And Shao Zifeng had another concern.

These people seemed more like scouts. They should currently be focused on gathering information and surely would not want their presence exposed.

If he were discovered, if he could keep them all here, then his information could buy the higher-ups some preparation time.

If he couldn’t manage that, the other side might likely go all in and invade earlier than planned.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the mutant creatures.

Shao Zifeng knew very well.

He himself simply couldn’t hold onto so many people.

Shao Zifeng felt somewhat of a headache.

For an Earth that had just recovered for 20 years and hadn’t even mastered teleportation technology, how was it supposed to fight with these people?

What to do, what to do.

Squeak … Squeak.

The footsteps gradually came closer.

The heavy breathing of the mutant creatures grew louder and clearer.

Shao Zifeng leaned against the ice rock and took a deep breath, pulling off his gloves in one motion.

He decided to take a chance.

“Casie, let me see what the natives look like,”

Just having arrived at the boulder squad, Kadu pulled Casie, who was blocking their front, eagerly stretching his long neck to look.

At that moment, a black-haired man appeared in front of her.

He had a complexion different from her own pale skin, and his exotic, handsome face instantly stunned Kadu.

Casie’s heart tightened, just as she was about to speak out to remind her, she saw the man open his hand towards them.

A dark ring on his finger bore abstract patterns forming a sinister smiling face.

Shao Zifeng opened his right hand toward the girl, eyes tightly focused on the girl’s blue eyes, “You discovered the enemy, you are panic-stricken, and in your panic, you instruct your beast to use Frost Roar.”

As he spoke, the pattern on the dark ring on his finger seemed to come alive.

A dusky green glow flickered in the depths of Shao Zifeng’s pupils, and his lips curved into a sinister smile.

Kadu and Casie looked dazed, and then Kadu let out a fearful scream, “Ah–Amo, use Frost Roar!”

The Wilderness Ice-toothed Tiger was also slightly affected, and upon hearing its master’s command, it opened its mouth wide towards Shao Zifeng.

“Roar!”

Boom!

A tangible whirlwind carrying icy spurs enveloped Shao Zifeng.

Icicles exploded around him, snow and wind whirled fiercely, and the muffled roar thundered like a storm across the icy plain.

The huge noise caught the attention of Yidan and others; they put down their work and called their pets to prepare to assist.

Facing the overwhelming attack, Shao Zifeng still extended his right hand, an invisible forcefield opened, breaking down the elemental structure within the skills.

Glancing at the people rushing towards him, Shao Zifeng’s voice was urgent, “Your attack killed the completely unguarded me, leaving only blood and remains at the scene, and you feel extremely disgusted, running quickly back to your companions.”

“You tell your companions everything you saw, you tell them you completed the mission, and that when you return you will completely forget everything that happened here.”

This last sentence was a gamble by Shao Zifeng.

He didn’t know if the Deceiver’s Ring could permanently deceive ordinary people; it was the only solution he could think of.

The slack-jawed Kadu and Casie, after Shao Zifeng finished speaking, twitched the muscles on their faces, looked at him as if seeing a pile of rotting meat, and turned around, retching as they ran back.

After reuniting with their companions, Yidan merely glanced this way, then comforted Kadu and the others as they walked towards the Array.

Watching their backs, Shao Zifeng sighed in relief.

Recalling the expressions the two girls had given him a moment ago.

Being looked at as trash…

It really was a peculiar feeling.

With that incident, their work on the other side hastened.

Soon, they repaired a large teleportation array with a diameter of several meters.

In the twisting space, a blue vortex appeared at the center of the plain.

The people packed up their pets and walked towards the teleportation array.

Shao Zifeng activated his sensory perception.

He noticed the people’s colors turned gray again, vanishing one by one into the teleportation array.

Soon, only the two girls remained.

Then, Shao Zifeng noticed that the color lines of the girl who had previously seen him slowly changed.

Gray, pale red mixed with light blue, and finally a touch of green representing friendliness.

Shao Zifeng hurriedly opened his eyes, instinctively wanting to call Qiuqiu to keep the girl.

The girl slowly walked into the teleportation array.

Her form twisted as she turned her head, giving Shao Zifeng a sweet smile.

Then her figure disappeared in the Array.

Upon the mission’s completion, the energy on the Array became disordered.

Finally, it exploded violently, sending stones shooting in all directions.

“The Deceiver’s Ring … it really failed, didn’t it.”

Thinking of the girl’s smile,

Shao Zifeng felt somewhat heavy-hearted.

In that case, not much time was left for Earth …
