Chapter 137 - All is Understood, and No Words are Necessary (1)
She had managed to obtain five badges with no difficulty at all!
The effect of the Illusion Construct curse far exceeded her expectations. Not only could it control someone for a short time, but the victim would also regard the given task as their mission to be completed, no matter the costs!
After Cao Xu completed his mission, his bright expression immediately blurred into an out of focus gaze that once again looked at a far distance. Then he slowly turned and walked toward the cave.
Shen Yanxiao knew that after Cao Xu returned to the cave, he would completely forget about everything that had happened.
After she moved the five badges into her space ring, Shen Yanxiao’s agile figure hastily leaped back to the tree where the Vermilion Bird was at.
Vermilion Bird exerted a slight force on his little legs, and then his small figure circled in the air before he was seated on the tree branch.
“You used a combination curse?” The Vermilion Bird wrinkled his nose. He saw everything that had happened earlier on. Shen Yanxiao’s hand gesture was very fast, and that was clearly a combination curse.
“You recognized it?” The effect of the Illusion Construct curse was out of her expectations, and so Shen Yanxiao was in a good mood.
She realized that, in the future, she could toy with other people without leaving a single trace!
“I’ve met a few warlocks in the past. They were all shameless bastards, specializing in using curses to bully people.” The Vermilion Bird pouted as he mumbled.
“Oh? Could it be that you…”
“Shut up. How can a human’s curse control a mythical beast like myself?” The Vermilion Bird arrogantly crossed his arms as he turned his head to the side.
He would never tell her that he did fall into a warlock’s trap in the past.
Absolutely not!
Shen Yanxiao quirked her eyebrows. As it was late into the night, she did not intend to continue traveling. Even though the magical beasts there were not powerful, but they liked to travel in groups. Furthermore, she was also tired from her day, so she laid down on the tree branch.
At another corner of the Obscure Forest, four sorry figures continued to run around, and the silhouettes of a group of people with crystal lights could also be seen.
The morning broke as the first ray of sunlight lit up the Obscure Forest, and the dark surroundings finally ushered in the light.
Shen Yanxiao was still sound asleep when she suddenly felt as if a heavy stone was pressed onto her chest, and she had difficulty breathing.
She opened her eyes in confusion and saw a pair of scarlet-red eyes in front of her.
The Vermilion Bird had somehow climbed onto her chest. Even though his small figure did not weigh as much as an adult, it was still considered as ‘heavy’ for the thirteen-year-old Shen Yanxiao.
“What are you doing?” Shen Yanxiao glared at that pair of glowing eyes, as she wished that she could kick the Vermilion Bird that always did unexpected things.
“I’m waking you up.” The Vermilion Bird spoke in all seriousness.
“…”
“To ask you to watch a good show.”
“…”
Shen Yanxiao wordlessly lifted the Vermilion Bird before she rubbed her aching chest. Even if she had yet to develop, did that little kid not realize that it was rude to climb on top of a female’s chest so early in the morning?
After she secretly cursed a certain mythical beast for its lack of moral principles, Shen Yanxiao heard noises from somewhere nearby.
Cao Xu stood at the entrance of the cave with an ashen complexion as he looked at his four teammates who stood in front of him.
“Cao Xu, stop playing games. Hurry and give us our badges.” Meng Yiheng frowned and looked at Cao Xu, as Li Xiang, Shangguan Xiao, and Qian Shanni stood at his side. All of them had a dark expression on their faces.
“Badges? What exactly are you talking about?” Cao Xu felt as if he was going crazy. Meng Yiheng and the other three members had demanded their badges from him early in the morning, but how could he possibly have their badges!?
