Giant Rock Nika (First Update)

Little Treasure, good job. You were reliable when it mattered... Qiao Sang praised inwardly as she looked at the complete absence of Wild Pet Beasts before her.

At that moment, Little Treasure raised its paw again.

You little brat, I praised you for nothing! Qiao Sang screamed inwardly.

"Ice Kexilu."

Just as the Brick Break condensed with white light was about to come down, Luobao cried out, signaling it to wait.

"Xun Xun?"

Little Treasure stopped and looked at Luobao with a puzzled expression.

Qiao Sang let out a relieved breath, feeling like she had narrowly escaped disaster.

"Ice Kexilu..."

Luobao scanned the surroundings, its expression grave.

"Xun Xun..."

Little Treasure looked around and likewise sensed that something was wrong.

Qiao Sang's attention had just been focused on Little Treasure's Brick Break. Seeing Luobao and Little Treasure like this, she immediately became alert.

Though she was frozen and unable to move, her senses remained intact.

Before long, Qiao Sang realized that the surroundings were far too quiet—an abnormal kind of quiet.

Not the tranquil silence of late at night, but the stillness before a storm.

Although she did not have much experience with wilderness expeditions, she understood that this atmosphere was anything but normal.

We've been targeted... Just as the thought arose, a white streak of ice suddenly shot down from high in the canopy, rapidly hurtling toward Little Treasure.

"Xun Xun~"

Little Treasure reacted swiftly, vanishing from where it stood and Teleporting directly to where the Freeze Ray had come from.

It raised its paw, instantly condensing a black Shadow Ball before smashing it downward.

Accompanied by a miserable cry of "Bubu!", a mostly white bird Pet Beast fell from the tree, landing on the ground with its eyes shut.
