The flames within the swarm of Scale Armored Moths suddenly expanded, shooting into the sky.
Yaobao reverted to its original form, carrying Qiao Sang aloft.
Countless sparks fell, and upon closer inspection, one would realize that they were actually charred Scale Armored Moths.
"Lin Lin!"
An uncountable number of Scale Armored Moths raised their heads to look at the culprit high above.
They showed expressions of anger, swarming up from all directions.
Qiao Sang looked down at the swarm of Bug-Type Pet Beasts rushing towards her, and instantly felt her scalp go numb.
No matter what type of pet beast, such a large-scale swarm was terrifying!
"Ya!"
Yaobao bared its teeth, about to attack, when Qiao Sang promptly said,
"Run fast!"
This was a residential area; the vast majority of the residents were ordinary people. Setting aside the potential damage to houses from the fight, people would definitely be affected. They had to lure the swarm of Scale Armored Moths to an uninhabited place.
"Ya!"
Although Yaobao did not understand why it needed to run, it turned and fled immediately upon hearing its Beast Tamer’s command.
A group of Scale Armored Moths persistently chased after them from behind.
"What’s this?!" On the streets, passersby looked up at the scene, and exclaimed in shock.
The teeming Scale Armored Moths in the sky seemed to cover up much of the heavens.
"My goodness! Scale Armored Moths! Why are there suddenly so many of them?!"
"It’s terrifying! Where did they all come from?"
"Look! They seem to be chasing something?"
"Oh! My goodness! There’s a person on the chased pet beast!"
"Mommy..." A hundred meters away on the side of the street, a little girl clutched her mother’s clothes tightly, looking at the scene in the sky, her fear instinctual.
"It’s all right, it’s going to be all right..." Mai Ya murmured.
By now, she understood everything. For some reason, the Scale Armored Moths had awakened. The youth who had taken her task realized the danger and had used some skill to transport them to a safe place, but had taken the risk of luring the swarm of Scale Armored Moths away herself.
Even though she herself was still a child... Mai Ya’s eyes moistened, and then she seemed to remember something, pulling out her phone and dialing the emergency number.
...
Damn, why did they wake up so suddenly... Qiao Sang sat on Yaobao’s back, occasionally looking back at the swarm of Scale Armored Moths, puzzled.
Also, she was completely unfamiliar with the terrain! Where on earth could there be no people... While contemplating, Qiao Sang just felt her body inexplicably itchy, and her head ached.
If she could see herself right now, she would find her body was covered in red spots, her face was swollen, and she was unrecognizable.
"Xun Xun!"
Xiao Xunbao, leading the three others with Shadow Control, immediately teleported onto Yaobao’s back.
Just as Qiao Sang turned her head.
Xiao Xunbao saw its own Beast Tamer’s appearance, displayed an expression of shock, and let out a scream.
"Xun Xun!"
The next second, its eyes pooled with tears, crying profusely as if Qiao Sang was suffering from some terminal disease.
This left Qiao Sang somewhat baffled, but she had no time to ponder it, as she quickly pulled out her phone, opened the navigation, and started searching the nearby map.
Soon, she found a place that was not a residential area.
"Yaobao, turn left!" Qiao Sang confirmed the direction and commanded.
"Ya!"
Yaobao obediently changed course.
Both Yaobao and Xiao Xunbao could teleport, and Xiao Xunbao was even capable of Spatial Movement. Escaping from a group of intermediate-level pet beasts was not difficult for them, but if their departure caused harm to the nearby ordinary people, that was not what Qiao Sang wanted to see.
Maybe she should just lead them straight to the police station... For a moment, this thought crossed Qiao Sang’s mind.
But she immediately realized that it was inappropriate.
Police stations were generally located in urban areas. With so many Scale Armored Moths, one misstep could involve bystanders.
Amid these thoughts, Qiao Sang directed Yaobao to head toward the northwest.
