After running for a long time, the seven-colored deer was really tired and sat down on the ground, refusing to get up.
Even though everyone had evolved to possess their ancient bloodlines, they weren't made of steel after all. Exhaustion and hunger left them feeling utterly worn out. "At this moment, if I could drink some clear, sweet spring water, or even just eat a little bit of food, I'd be completely satisfied."
Even though the Flame Dragon Elder had awakened the bloodline of his ancient ancestral dragon, and was a very powerful one at that, there was nothing he could do now.
They could only look up to the sky and sigh, unable to change anything before them, and felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
"Old man, can't you just shut up for a second? Talking about these things at a time like this, do you want to whet everyone's appetite?" The giant ape elder had a bitter expression on his face, his stomach was rumbling, his mouth was dry, and he really didn't want to move an inch.
Actually, Slime Mirror was just putting on a brave face. He was as stubborn as a boiled duck, refusing to utter a single word, though his expression clearly showed he was in great pain. "Everyone, cheer up! Everything might change?"
At this moment, Liu Ziming, the eldest brother, felt that if he couldn't do something, nothing could be changed and these people might already be in dire straits. What should he do?
But to his complete surprise, the two little ones, Ellis and White, had a completely different idea from theirs, and their spirits remained high. "Boss, leave this to us. Do you think we can find food and water?"
After careful consideration, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, concluded that they had basically escaped the attacks of the mutated alien creatures, and there was no terrifying demon king present, so safety should not be a problem...
Seeing that their eldest brother, Liu Ziming, was still hesitant, Iris and Bai couldn't wait any longer and turned to run out. "What are you two doing? Be careful, don't get lost!"
Although the old Flame Dragon was exhausted, he was still worried about the two little ones, Iris and White.
As for why he had such a deep and special bond with the two of them, even the old Flame Dragon himself couldn't figure it out.
If this is fate, it's probably the first time the old Flame Dragon has encountered such an opportunity, especially with two lively little ones like them. "Don't worry, we'll definitely find food and water. You two rest here and don't wander off!"
Ellis was much more lively than Bai, running and shouting loudly as if nothing in front of him was a problem.
Actually, neither of the two little guys knew how they were able to find food and water. It seemed they gained this ability after absorbing the mutated energy of the alien creature. "Boss, you're just letting these two little guys run off on their own? Won't they run into danger?"
The cat angel had a slightly frightened expression on its face, after all, the two little guys had just completed their evolution and were not yet mature.
1.9 But seeing the calm expression on Boss Liu Ziming's face, as if nothing had happened, Cat Angel had no choice but to shut her mouth.
"Hehe, everyone, don't worry. Iris and Bai will definitely find food and water because there are such things around here. Otherwise, I wouldn't have done this." The eldest brother, Liu Ziming, said something truly astonishing, and completely shocked everyone.
Because his formidable combat prowess, displayed time and again, was truly remarkable, and each time it was more powerful than the last, something they had never seen before.
"Boss, are you really an extraordinary being? Everything seems to be under your control. We're not in a survival game; it's like we're breaking free from ourselves."
Chapter 486 I Was Originally Extraordinary: Facing Heavenly Tribulation
Seeing the puzzled expression on the face of the giant ape elder, and the somewhat inexplicable tone of his writing, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, could only shake his head helplessly.
If I were to reveal my amazing system at this point, it would probably not be a safe move, and there might be unknown dangers involved.
"Don't overthink it, everyone. I just have a special sensitivity to unknown dangers. Other than that, I'm just like everyone else, except that I've had a few more opportunities." Boss Liu Ziming's explanation seemed reasonable, but no one believed it because they didn't think they were stupid.
If they believed their leader Liu Ziming's nonsense, they would think they were being incredibly ridiculous.
Time slowly passed, and about half an hour later, Iris and White still hadn't returned. Everyone's faces showed extreme tension. "Boss, could something have happened to those two little ones? So much time has passed, why haven't they come back yet?" The old Flame Dragon's expression was extremely tense, even more so than his own.
After all, although these two little guys are a bit bigger, they are only 28 years old and not that mature yet. Who wouldn't be worried?
"Hehe, don't worry, these two little guys will probably be back soon. If they weren't so playful, they would have been back already."
Everyone was used to Liu Ziming's extraordinary perception, because it had always been like this, and no one thought anything of it; it all seemed normal.
Sure enough, a little while later, Ellis and Bai, the two little ones, came running back hand in hand, carrying many more things, their faces beaming with joy. "My goodness, it seems the boss was right, otherwise he would have already taken action!"
Seeing the two little ones carrying so many bags and looking so tired and sweaty, everyone stood up happily and went to greet them. "Did you two little ones run into any danger? Why did it take you so long to come back?"
When everyone kept asking them questions, Ellis and Bai looked a little embarrassed. They had been out for so long because they were just playing.
But he refused to admit it, after all, he was thinking like a child, so he just smiled and didn't answer.
“You two, if you go out for this long again and keep wandering around, curious about everything, you’ll have to stay with the team and won’t be allowed to go out on your own anymore.” As the leader, Liu Ziming had to let the two kids know that they were a team and that everyone’s safety was on everyone’s mind. This was no joke.
If those two little ones run off and cause trouble again, that would be their biggest potential danger, and possibly their biggest problem. "Hehe, Boss definitely won't do it again. Something like that can't happen again, it can't possibly happen again!"
Although the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, did not criticize the two little ones, they knew they had really done something wrong, and their expressions looked very unnatural as they unloaded all the food and water.
After all, it was their own promise, and they successfully found food and water, so their contribution was undeniable. "My goodness, this is all the food you two little ones found? How are we supposed to eat this?"
"Holy crap, am I seeing things? You two little guys actually caught some small animals. What kind of operation is this?"
Everyone was quite thirsty, and after drinking some water, they were surprised to find that the two little guys had brought back small animals, and they were still warm.
When they heard people ask them that question, the two little ones stuck out their tongues and made a really funny face.
"Can't we just eat this food directly? How do we prepare it? It doesn't seem like there should be any major problems?"
"This kind of food smells and tastes especially delicious, and it's the freshest, so why can't we use it directly?"
Ellis and White, the two little guys, seemed quite self-righteous. If they weren't worried that everyone hadn't eaten in a long time, they probably would have swallowed all of this food whole, raw.
Seeing the two little ones' somewhat frightened expressions and their self-righteous manner, the eldest, Liu Ziming, could only shake his head helplessly.
"You've already done very well to find this food, but eating it raw will definitely harm your evolution. Remember this, you must never do this again." But with these things laid out here, without the Flame Dragon Elder's flame, they would have no choice but to eat them raw.
So the giant ape elder seemed to have seen through the situation, and quickly took action to carefully process the small animals, placing them on some vegetation. "Old man, please spare some of your flame? Otherwise, these things can't be used." Seeing the pleading look on the giant ape elder's face, the fire dragon elder felt incredibly miserable.
Because its previous 267 flames had been used up, it now had no energy left in its body and couldn't generate any flames at all. "Heh, what's so difficult about this? Leave this to me."
Since the goal is to find fire, apart from the Fire Dragon Elder, no one else can really think of a better way.
But to their complete surprise, the little guy Bai stepped forward and promised he could solve the problem, leaving everyone astonished. "What's so special about this? It's just fire! While I can't generate it myself, I can create it!"
Then, the little guy Bai took a wooden stick from somewhere and started spinning it around and around, faster and faster, until it was almost dizzying.
As the wooden stick spun faster, a tiny flame instantly appeared, looking quite magical.
"My goodness, these two little ones are just like the boss, they're practically monsters. Could they be extraordinary beings who have come here to undergo tribulation?"
And you know what? The old Flame Dragon's amazing idea would later be proven true. These two little guys were indeed extraordinary; they always seemed different from everyone else. What happened next left them speechless.
Chapter 488 Danger is Everywhere
After the group had eaten and drunk their fill, they rested there for a long time without encountering any danger, so their vigilance gradually diminished.
That's just how people are; if they live too comfortably, they might lose their awareness of the unknown. "Bai, have you felt a strange sound slowly approaching us?"
Ellis and White, the two little ones, were full of energy and vitality; their so-called rest was just playing non-stop.
So when a strange, though faint, sound approached them, Iris sensed it. "There really is a sound slowly, slowly getting closer, but what is it?"
Just as Bai and Ellis were feeling terrified, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, casually covered their mouths.
Even when the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, is asleep, his perception is probably beyond that of an ordinary person.
If these two kids talk loudly again, it will definitely attract the attention of that voice, and who knows what danger might occur. That's why the eldest, Liu Ziming, is acting this way. "You two better not make any noise here. If danger occurs, be sure to protect yourselves."
After making sure the two little ones were settled, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, tiptoed out and moved very quickly, which surprised Iris and Bai.
This was the first time they had ever witnessed their boss's speed, a speed they had never seen before.
"My goodness! Boss, that's incredible! Your movement speed is many times faster than the two of us combined!"
Ellis and White exchanged a glance. Neither said anything, but their keen intuition allowed them to anticipate each other's intentions. "We'd better wake up our own people quickly, otherwise, if danger strikes, it might be too late to escape." Despite White's introverted nature, his mind was quick, and he soon realized the problem.
Ellis offered no objection, gently waking everyone with her small hands and gesturing for them to be quiet, a warning of impending danger. "What are you two little devils up to? Where did our boss, Liu Ziming, go?"
Everyone's eyes said it all. Ellis and White, the two little guys, weren't stupid either, and they quickly started gesturing with their hands.
This was something the boss had instructed them to do beforehand: don't make any noise, or they might be threatened and attacked. "My God! That stinky spider has gone out alone again! He always does this?"
Slime Mirror's eyes were filled with endless worry. If anything happened to Liu Ziming, he would probably blame himself.
But he had no idea that danger was slowly creeping towards them. If Liu Ziming hadn't intervened beforehand, these people would probably have been in grave trouble. "Awoooooo!"
It turns out that those deformed alien creatures weren't all lured away by the clones of Ellis and Bai. Some of them actually sneaked over. Otherwise, how could Boss Liu not have noticed them?
Hearing that familiar call, everyone understood why their leader, Liu Ziming, would do such a thing.
"Since these guys are still up to no good and keep thinking about capturing us, let's show them what real strength is!"
Although the old Flame Dragon had lost his flames, he never dreamed that just as danger was about to strike, the energy within him would surge ten times stronger than before, leaving him with an unexpected feeling.
He was all too familiar with this feeling; otherwise, his expression wouldn't have been so bizarre. "Haha, my flames are back! Let these guys taste my Fiery Palm!"
The old Flame Dragon stood arrogantly in front of everyone, ready to unleash his flames if the mutated alien creatures dared to attack. "My goodness, these guys have such a keen sense of smell, they still managed to find us?"
The giant ape elder sat with his hands tightly clasped together, his eyes looking particularly solemn. If these creatures were to launch a sudden attack on them, he truly didn't know how to respond.
After all, their leader, Liu Ziming, had secretly run away, leaving everyone without their leader and filled with anxiety. "Boom boom boom!"
A series of loud noises drew everyone's attention, then everything returned to silence, as if nothing had happened. "Good heavens, it couldn't have been Boss Liu Ziming who took care of all those guys by himself, could it?" The silence was eerily quiet; you could even hear their breathing.
Everyone appeared extremely cautious, prepared to retaliate without hesitation should the mutated alien creatures attack. "I'm exhausted! Can't we stay here any longer?"
About a minute or two later, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, suddenly appeared in front of everyone like a ghost, which really gave them a big fright.
He appeared incredibly fast, covered in various substances, and looked rather disheveled. "What happened to the boss? Did those mutated alien creatures catch up with us?"
The Seven-Colored Deer clenched its fists tightly in front of it, its expression still showing great tension, and looked directly at its leader, Liu Ziming, and asked.
He was genuinely worried that if he were to face those mutated alien creatures (Wang Zhao) alone, he wouldn't know what to do.
Fortunately, their leader, Liu Ziming, was there for them. He was their strongest support, and they had become dependent on him. "Don't worry, they're just a few lucky creatures that managed to get food. They're not what you're thinking."
Seeing Liu Ziming's calm and collected demeanor, everyone understood that he simply didn't want to exaggerate the danger to avoid causing panic.
Because these people weren't fools, and were quite clever, they quickly guessed their leader Liu Ziming's intentions, so no one said anything more. "Hehe, boss, you must have had a fierce battle with those mutated alien creatures when you went out just now, otherwise how would you explain the smell on you?" Iris and Bai, the two little guys, were very familiar with the smell of the mutated alien creatures, and especially liked it.
Chapter 489 Liu Ziming's Worries
Bai and Ellis looked at their leader, Liu Ziming, but Liu Ziming didn't explain to them why he smelled like that alien monster.
Actually, the leader wanted to handle it secretly by himself. This monster had kept everyone safe, but unfortunately, it was quite resilient.
After struggling for two rounds, he miraculously recovered and was able to see this scene. The two little ones, whom Liu Ziming wanted to protect, shared the same sentiment. They had always wanted to protect their leader, Liu Ziming.
"Boss Liu Ziming, I really thought you humans were as simple as they are on TV."
Liu Ziming frowned slightly. This was a lot of information. Who could blame him when this little spider was usually so clever? And when did they even start watching TV?
Liu Ziming didn't answer, so Iris continued talking to him. Iris closed her eyes, and only Liu Ziming understood that she was reminiscing about a memory from a long time ago. Iris's memories were all short-lived. They weren't particularly smart, but they weren't stupid either. In short, they were both confused at the moment.
"I heard from the old Flame Elder that the TV is a small cube, and inside the box you can find all sorts of 267s, all kinds of strange and very interesting things." "Hehe, I thought you really had seen everything."
"So what? You're never too old to learn, and I'm still so young!"
Liu Ziming almost tripped and fell to the ground. What was all this about? These two little guys were very quick learners, but it was best to keep them away from other people. If they picked up some bad things, he wouldn't be able to control them. The little guys were innocent and cute, so they naturally needed someone to teach them. Therefore, he secretly thought it was time to hide these two away.
But now he faces another problem: how to make these two things easier to store? He doesn't want these two tails following him around all the time.
Two little guys.
"Senior Flame, come here for a moment!"
