As the huge figure walked in, the surrounding fog dissipated, and a heart-palpitating pressure came over.
Hayashi River laid on the ground motionlessly. Before he fell, he had seen the appearance of this huge figure from Little White 1's surveillance.
This was a cheetah-type beast. It was six meters long and two meters tall. Its orange fur was covered in armor-like patterns, and when it walked, it made light sounds of friction.
Judging from its size, this cheetah-type beast's strength was comparable to a Level 5 Heart Warrior or above.
If it got close, this beast's lethality would be even more terrifying. Hayashi River estimated that even a Level 7 Heart Warrior or above might not be able to withstand it.
However, Hayashi River didn't panic. He realized that the pain on his forehead wasn't that strong.
Hayashi River already had a good understanding of the eyeball pattern. This kind of weak pain meant that it wasn't much of a threat to him.
However, anyone would be frightened when such a cheetah-type beast was in front of them.
Hayashi River even suspected that because the Cracked Scale Forest was full of strangeness, the magical ability's warning effect might be weakened.
The huge cheetah-type beast slowly walked closer and lifted its fan-like paw. With a slight wave, Amod's unkempt hair was blown away, revealing Blue Kitty underneath.
The little fellow lay there motionlessly, as if it was lifeless.
"Roar …"
The huge cheetah-type beast growled and used its paw to lightly reach towards Blue Kitty.
Facing the huge paw, Blue Kitty couldn't pretend to be dead anymore. It scurried to the side and meowed at the huge cheetah-type beast, "Meow …"
This meow was very soft, but with Blue Kitty's trembling body, it seemed to be saying, "Master cheetah-type beast, please let me go …"
Hayashi River lay on the ground, still motionless. He quietly activated the mechanical arm, preparing to activate the Heart Origin Weapon.
"I hope the power of this weapon can blast this beast away. With Little Meow and my strength, we should be able to save Sister Yi Xing and Amod …"
As he was thinking, the huge cheetah-type beast laid down, placed its head in front of Blue Kitty, and lightly roared.
Blue Kitty: "(⊙ o ⊙) …"
I seem to be able to understand what it's saying …
The little blue cat looked at its master who was pretending to be dead and meowed a few times, indicating that the cheetah beast had no ill intentions. It was just that it smelled its scent and came over to take a look.
"If you understood, why didn't you say so earlier …"
Hayashi River had already sat up and was tidying his robe as if nothing had happened. He confirmed once again that the warning from the eyeball pattern was indeed powerful. The strangeness of the forest had no effect on it.
The cheetah beast looked at Hayashi River and glanced at his right shoulder. It lowered its head even more as if it was afraid.
Hayashi River noticed this. Was this cheetah beast afraid of his mechanical arm?
"Ask it if it knows what's going on …"
As he said this, Hayashi River took out some cat food and asked Blue Kitty to give it to the cheetah beast.
The cheetah was eating cat food. It really liked this kind of food …
Hayashi River's mouth twitched. This was cat food for cat pets on the mainland. You're a feline, so you'll definitely like it. It's very expensive.
Then, with Blue Kitty acting as a translator, a human, a cat, and a cheetah beast had a brief conversation.
"Wanderer, Berserker … Deep in the forest, death …"
The cheetah beast's IQ was only equivalent to that of a two or three-year-old child. It couldn't be compared to Blue Kitty at all.
It could only express some simple things. It wasn't sure why Yi Xing and the others fainted.
There were two kinds of dangerous existences in this forest that made it afraid.
One was the Wanderer, and the other was the Berserker.
The Wanderer wandered around the edge of the forest, while the Berserker appeared in the middle of the forest …
However, something changed yesterday. The Berserker appeared at the edge of the forest, in the building in front of it. It was quite dangerous nearby, so the cheetah beast was forced to leave its territory.
"Roar …" The cheetah beast growled.
Blue Kitty called out. It was best to "translate" and leave this place.
"Can you help carry it?"
Hayashi River took out a large bag of cat food and wanted the cheetah beast to work. The latter happily agreed.
He took out a large storage bag and put all the bodyguards and soldiers inside. Then, he placed Yi Xing and Amod on both sides of the cheetah beast. Seeing that the big yellow beast still had strength to spare, Hayashi River knew that he had underestimated the beast's strength.
The strength of this cheetah beast was even greater than that of an elephant. Coupled with the cheetah's agility, a sudden collision could really kill a group of people.
On the cheetah beast's head sat Blue Kitty. This little thing looked left and right, like a cat pretending to be a leopard.
Then, Lin Chuan followed behind him. They left the path and headed to another part of the forest.
…
In the dense forest, there were a few low stone houses made of grey-white rocks.
Around the stone houses, there were layers of defense, electric pulse traps, flame throwers, ice bombs, and so on … These were half of what Hayashi River had on him.
In the house, everyone was lying down. Blue Kitty and the cheetah beast were on the other side. The two felines were enjoying their afternoon meal.
Hayashi River searched Yi Xing's body and carefully untied the Heart Elemental Equipment on the beauty's body.
"Meow …"
Lan Xiaomiao called out. Master, are you trying to take advantage of me while I'm down?
Roar … The cheetah beast also growled. It didn't understand what Hayashi River was doing and only agreed with Blue Kitty.
"You little thing, after we go back, you are not allowed to watch those rubbish soap operas …"
Hayashi River was speechless. During this period of time, this little thing had nothing to do and just watched soap operas all day. When it had nothing to do, it would bring those soap operas' plots to reality.
After this time, he must correct it properly. He couldn't let it continue like this.
As he searched Yi Xing's body, Hayashi River obviously didn't want to take advantage of him. He was looking for something.
For example, the map of this area and more secrets about the Cracked Scale Forest …
In the observation station, Hayashi River knew that Yi Xing was holding back and didn't tell him all the secrets of the Cracked Scale Forest.
After all, although Hayashi River was Master Tie Yin's student, he had just become a Mechanic and wasn't qualified to know more secrets.
"Found it …"
From Yi Xing's backpack, Hayashi River found a box. It was only the size of a palm and there were two types of locks on it. It wasn't a fingerprint or iris recognition lock.
One was a keyhole, and the other was a Heart Elemental Code Lock. It was known as the safest Sixty Layers Heart Elemental Code Lock.
Hayashi River started to have a headache. Opening the Heart Elemental Code Lock was easy, but where could he find the key?
Then, he realized that something was wrong. As long as he opened one of the two locks, the box would open.
Hayashi River chuckled in his heart. Heh …
He could tell that the keyhole was made later. Even if he knew the sequence of the Heart Elemental Code Lock, unlocking the Sixty Layers Heart Elemental Code Lock was an indescribable torment for a layman.
A minute later, the lock was unlocked. The top layer of the box was a monitoring device, and the bottom layer was filled with reagents filled with a light green liquid.
He turned on the monitoring device. The screen lock was Yi Xing's fingerprint. Hayashi River guessed that all the locks in Yi Xing's house were like this. If that was the case, he could consider buying one in the future.
"Damn … So this is what happened to the Cracked Scale Furnace in the past …"
Looking at the recording on the monitoring device, Hayashi River's expression changed. He understood the whole story of the Cracked Scale Furnace's transformation.
In ancient times, in order to fight against the beasts of the Five Seas, the Cracked Scale Furnace had conducted an experiment. It used the [Blazing Alloy] as the raw material to create a substance that could strengthen the bodies of living beings and create undying warriors.
This substance was called the [Blazing Substance].
After that, the experiment went out of control. The Cracked Scale Furnace exploded, and the [Blazing Substance] leaked out. The entire central area of the Cracked Scale Canyon became a wasteland.
From then on, the Cracked Scale Forest became a forbidden area. The terrifying turbulence of energy and the pervasive [Blazing Substance] were fatal to living beings.
The White Dwarf Kingdom had sent armies into the Cracked Scale Forest many times. It was not only for the [Blazing Alloy], but also to erase the terrifying existence created by the [Blazing Substance].
"The Wanderer that Big Yellow mentioned was a mutated creature that absorbed the [Blazing Substance]. It was actually a Wanderer, so it wasn't that dangerous …"
"As for the Berserker, after absorbing the [Blazing Substance], its body was strengthened, and its mind was in chaos. It was full of aggression and lost control …"
"The terrifying existence in the depths of the forest was the so-called undying warrior in the experiment …"
After looking at the recording, Hayashi River felt a headache coming on. Had there been a biohazard crisis here before? This was worse than he had expected.
As for the reason why Yi Xing and the others fainted, Hayashi River had also found it. Unlike the Wanderer, the [Blazing Berserker] would release the [Blazing Substance]. When inhaled for the first time, one would faint.
However, the symptoms were not serious, and the solution was simple. One only needed to sleep for a period of time, or inject an inhibitor, which was the light green reagent.
As for why he was fine, the Blue Kitty was fine. Hayashi River looked at the little guy, and the latter looked at him innocently. He shook his head. It was hard to say. He had a lot of secrets, so which one was the cause …
"Inject some inhibitor into Sister Yi Xing first. We'll talk about it when she wakes up …"
Hayashi River picked up a light green liquid reagent and injected a quarter of it into Yi Xing. According to the record, only one-sixth of the reagent was needed.
Considering the strong physique of the descendants of the Deep Blue Seafolk, Hayashi River chose a quarter.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain on his forehead, as if he had been scalded by boiling water. It was so painful that Hayashi River almost threw the reagent in his hand.
Da da …
Strange footsteps sounded, like a hammer hitting a rock, spreading far and wide in the silent forest.
In the house, the giant cheetah suddenly lay down, just like the Blue Kitty. It was shivering there, and it signaled the Blue Kitty with its eyes.
The Blue Kitty understood and showed a look of horror, waving its two claws.
Master, the Berserker is here …
Hayashi River covered his forehead and cursed in his heart. Do I need you to tell me that? My head is about to die from the pain.
Boom!
Outside the stone house, 300 meters away, a cloud of icy mist exploded. The Freeze Bomb had been triggered.
