"Thank you for the warning, but we're still going in." Xu Ran glanced at the Brightlight Blob, which seemed about to speak, then suddenly asked, "You're not planning to come in with us too, are you?"
The Brightlight Blob fell silent for a moment.
Just as Xu Ran thought it would give up, the Brightlight Blob suddenly spoke.
"Ploosh~" (Then I'm coming in too.)
"Hm?" This time, Xu Ran was genuinely surprised.
After all, the Brightlight Blob before him was only at the Elite Rank. Going in really would be no different from serving itself up on a platter, not to mention that it had just been doing everything it could to dissuade him from entering.
"Ploosh~" (I'll hide when you're fighting! I won't hold you back! And I can heal too!)
Looking at the utterly earnest Brightlight Blob, Xu Ran rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"So... why exactly have you been following us all this way?"
At that, the Brightlight Blob grew bashful again.
But after some hesitation, it finally gave its answer.
"Ploosh~" (I accidentally overheard your conversation with the Armored Beast King. I want to see the outside world!)
Understanding dawned on Xu Ran.
Perhaps because this little creature was so weak, they had focused almost all their attention on the Armored Beast King during their conversation and had failed to notice such a little creature hiding nearby.
With that, he could understand why the Brightlight Blob had kept following him.
After all, anyone who suddenly learned there was a new world outside would surely be curious to see it.
And since they had come in from outside, they naturally had a way to leave.
Having finally summoned the courage to say what it wanted, the Brightlight Blob looked at Xu Ran with hope in its large eyes.
