Chapter 244 Extra - Tragic (1/2)

It wasn't easy, but we finally managed to take one down.

Before Xiaobai and Daju had regained consciousness, two intense killing intents came from behind.

The killing intent pressed down from behind and from both sides, and the remaining two sand scorpions rushed over quickly.

The enormous mouth opened, and two streams of dark green venom arced together in mid-air.

A poisonous net, reeking of sulfur, was instantly formed, sealing off all their escape routes.

The foul wind, carrying the scent of death, rushed towards us.

"Awoo!"

Daju's mind went completely blank.

Its chubby body moved faster than its will, lunging forward suddenly.

Big Orange's round body quickly appeared in front of Little White, shielding Little White, who hadn't even reacted yet, beneath its body.

The orange cat's back was completely exposed and was instantly caught in the falling poison net.

"Sizzle—sizzle—sizzle—"

The sound of flesh and bones rotting rang out in an instant.

A plume of white smoke, from burnt flesh and the acrid smell of burning fur, shot into the sky.

"Awooo—!"

The big orange let out a heart-wrenching scream, so shrill it was distorted.

Its orange fur turned black and curled at a visible speed, revealing the bloody, corroded wounds underneath.

The intense pain caused its massive body to convulse violently, almost collapsing to the ground.

But its four claws were firmly planted on the sand like four nails, not moving an inch, not putting any weight on the small body beneath it.

"squeak--!"

Little White was pinned down underneath.

The strong smell of burning and the scalding stench of blood assaulted its nostrils, almost suffocating it.

It could feel the warm body protecting it trembling violently from the intense pain.

Each spasm of the orange mouse caused the little white mouse in its arms to tremble, making the little white mouse's heart clench.

Big orange...

Its own little brother, Big Orange, actually suffered such serious injuries while protecting it!

Xiao Bai's mind went blank for a moment; all his plans, escape, and fear were instantly swept away by the strong smell of burnt blood.

All that remained was a rage that came from the depths of his blood.

"squeak--!"

A metallic scraping sound, accompanied by an ancient and majestic roar, exploded from its small throat!

The orange cat lying on its back jolted violently, and even the two sand scorpions that were preparing to launch their final attack froze for a moment.

The wind stopped, the sand grains hung in mid-air, and all around was deathly silent.

Little White's white fur moved without wind, each hair standing on end, the tips of the hairs shimmering with a fine silver light.

Its dark purple eyes were rapidly losing all color.

In the blink of an eye, they transformed into a pair of cold, pure silver pupils.

At the center of his brow, the pale golden treasure-hunting mark shone brightly, and a mysterious rune flashed by before disappearing.

"squeak!"

Another shriek rang out, but this time the voice lacked its previous naivety, replaced only by a chilling killing intent.

Little White emerged from under Big Orange.

It didn't look at the two sand scorpions; its silver eyes reflected only the charred flesh and blood behind the big orange.

Its little paws gently touched the orange cat's scorched fur.

"Waaah..."

The orange cat let out a low whimper in pain. It tried to nuzzle the white cat with its head, but it didn't even have the strength to lift its head.

Hearing this fragile whimper, Xiaobai slowly turned around, its pure silver pupils locking onto the two sand scorpions.

The moment those eyes fixed on them, the two ferocious third-tier demonic beasts felt a shiver run through their very souls.
