Chun’s eyes trembled slightly, his fingers gradually tightened, and Fisher vaguely felt an itch on his skin, unsure if it was an illusion or influenced by his power. Fisher looked down and saw that all the hairs on his body stood on end, as if purple lights were flowing through his veins.
Chun seed sowhat annoyed, and even Hooked kiss did not expect his anger to co so abruptly. He looked at the cages below, frowned, and asked Hooked kiss,
"Why are they keeping slaves?"
Hooked kiss looked at the cages over there and replied,
"... No, the Muxiya Snake People never keep slaves; they usually devour them on the spot, so there must be a reason why they’re doing this now, Lord Chun..."
Before he could finish his words, Chun slightly raised his hand, and the next mont the entire coast began to quake violently.
"Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!"
The cals behind started to restlessly rouse, and Fisher instinctively reached out to pet its head, trying to calm it down, but as soon as Fisher’s hand touched it, the cal miraculously quieted down.
Its eyes revealed a "satisfied" look in a human-like manner, and it even stuck out its tongue to lick Fisher’s hand, prompting Fisher to chuckle as he tousled its mane, saying,
"Cunning cal, you’re just like that Angel."
"Gurgle gurgle!"
It shook its head and nuzzled Fisher’s hand coquettishly, seemingly not understanding a single word but expressing agreent.
Soon, thick branches sprouted vigorously from the ground, resembling mighty redwoods that pried apart the earth and the cliffs, overshadowing and enveloping the Snake People Tribe below like a natural disaster.
"Aaaah!"
"It’s an earthquake!!"
"Run!"
As Chun, Fisher, and the others slowly descended along the branches, the scene on the cliff below was finally fully revealed to everyone’s eyes.
The cliff’s underside had been completely hollowed out, forming an elaborate, interconnected system of winding caves where the snake people seed to reside for the most part. Upon hearing the terrifying commotion above, they all rushed out, but Fisher quickly noticed that many of them were dragging small carts filled with strange items. Without exception, those strange items resembled the sa incomplete Holy Objects inside this cal’s belly.
As the entire coast beca enclosed by enormous branches thick enough for four or five people to wrap their arms around, the panicked fleeing snake-n froze outside, gazing at the few individuals standing on the beach. At the sa instant, a low, angry roar abruptly emanated from the cave, echoed by the flickering shadows of the torches, sketching out an extrely robust silhouette...
"Who is it?!!!"
The silhouette shouted as such.
Chun stood motionless, watching as a "fully ard" red obese snake-man slowly erged from the cave. It was covered from head to tail in those incomplete Holy Objects, as if ard to the teeth. Its high and plump body looked both mighty and sowhat comical, with its two chubby hands wielding a pair of shiny weapons,
"Who are you?!! How dare you trespass into Kakafu Snake People’s territory! I am Kakaro, the brother of Kakafu Snake King, a loyal follower of Holy Descendant Sorobato! Let show you the blessings bestowed by the Holy Descendant..."
As the light from the weapon in the fully ard snake-man’s hand grew more intense, resembling a light bulb emitting extraordinary montum, the next second, amidst his aggressive words, his... er, one of his plump hands suddenly exploded, sprouting thick branches adorned with deep purple flowers.
"Ahhhh!"
Chun expressionlessly withdrew his finger, watching the snake-man who called himself "Kakaro" writhing in agony on the ground like a worm, while the nearby snake-people, swept by Chun’s life-suppressing gaze, all knelt, trembling with fear.
This group of snake-people ranked around six to the Ninth Rank, which made them a formidable force against lower-ranked humans or other demi-humans, but against the Mythical Species like Chun, their status instantly flipped, rendering them as insignificant as ants.
Seated on the single-humped cal, Fisher stroked his chin, scanning the surrounding area but not finding any sign of the elf woman. Gui ntioned she was waiting in the Kakafu Snake-man settlent, but he wasn’t sure if this was the place, as Chun ntioned there was another settlent to the north.
"... What are you doing here, who is Sorobato? What is your intent in trading with the Ideal Country?"
However, Chun appeared inexperienced in interrogating those he subdued and seed unclear on what to do next. He seed unaccustod to using power to suppress other races; more often, he was benevolent, and if not for witnessing their cruel act of slavery, he probably wouldn’t have pursued their motives.
"What trade... my brother and I have long parted ways; what we’re doing here has nothing to do with them. As for what we are doing here..."
