Chapter 1160: Ancient Forest
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The golden light shield was impenetrable both inside and outside!
“Are we safe?”
The emperor seed of Emperor Soho, forcibly expelled by Luke Yates, hung above his head, emitting a faint glow. The weak power supported the entire golden light shield, preventing it from being torn apart by the rat horde.
Colton Jansky, with teary eyes, wiped away his tears and mumbled, “It seems like the rat horde can’t get in.”
“The three of us can’t get out either!”
Tobey Lapras stood inside the light shield, feeling the overwhelming rat horde outside, causing his scalp to tingle.
Now they had a safe haven.
Luke didn’t rush to detonate the emperor seed.
He was very smart. Seeing a way out, how could he be willing to die?
Tobey wore a troubled expression, saying, “We don’t know how long this golden light shield can be sustained. The key is, the rat horde can’t get in, and we can’t get out!”
“I also don’t know if Big Brother and the others have received the signal Luke sent earlier.”
Colton sat on the ground, his face showing a worried look.
Luke nonchalantly took out a deck of playing cards from his pocket, mischievously saying, “How about we play a game?”
Tobey: “???”
Colton: “…”
One person looked bewildered, and the other was left speechless.
Luke was actually thinking about playing a game of cards at a time like this?
The rat horde outside had almost forced the three of them to death just now!
But Luke was different.
He was full of energy, and he was a bit too laid-back. He actually wanted to play a game with Tobey and Colton.
Tobey was desperate, saying weakly, “Luke, let’s not mess around, okay?”
“That’s right. If it wasn’t for you wanting to dig into the rat hole, would we be surrounded by the rat horde now?” Colton stared, saying with wide eyes.
Luke grumbled, “How would I know it was a rat hole? I didn’t think I’d dig up such a big nest.”
“This is a rat horde, and we happened to run into it. It’s just bad luck.”
Tobey sighed and couldn’t help but feel a headache oncoming.
The rat nest had erupted, and who knew how large the affected area was.
But the spirit beasts and plants in this area would surely be affected.
Regardless of whether it was a martial artist or a spirit beast, they would be besieged to death by the rat horde, their bodies gnawed right through.
Perhaps not even white bones would be left.
Luke wanted to play a game of cards, but Colton and Tobey didn’t want to play with him.
After all, the thought processes of these two troublemakers were somewhat more normal, and they were worried about how to get out.
Luke patted his b.u.t.tocks, stood up, and slowly moved the golden light shield.
This sudden movement startled Tobey, who asked, “Luke, what are you doing now?”
“Pushing it from the inside!”
Luke replied confidently.
But Tobey was really afraid that he would break the golden light shield.
By then, the three of them would undoubtedly be swallowed alive by the rat horde.
Luke pushed the spherical light shield, becoming more and more proficient at it.
Suddenly, above the overwhelming rat horde, a golden light sphere with a diameter of up to three meters appeared, spinning aimlessly without direction or purpose.
This strange phenomenon lasted for a full fifteen minutes.
Even the rat horde was dumbfounded.
The leader of the rat horde squeaked, instructing the rat horde to ignore it. The golden light shield seemed abnormal, and that there was something inside that made the rat horde leader fearful.
Inside the golden light shield.
Colton and the others took turns pushing the golden light sphere.
Tobey frowned and said, “Luke, are you sure you are giving the right orders?”
“I feel like we’re spinning in place!” said Colton with a serious expression.
Luke earnestly replied, “Be confident, get rid of that feeling!”
Tobey: “???”
At this moment, Tobey was nearly driven to frustration.
But Luke patted his chest and a.s.sured, “trust me. My sense of direction has never been wrong. Follow me, and I’ll make sure to lead you two away from the rat horde.”
“I have a bad feeling.”
Tobey had an expressionless face as he personally pushed the golden light shield, following Luke’s sense of direction.
As expected, without Luke directing, the golden light shield returned to normal. Following a winding and twisting route, it rolled toward the south.
The three of them took turns pushing, and the golden light sphere rolled smoothly.
After not much time had pa.s.sed, the golden light shield had already left the range of the rat horde.
The black rat horde didn’t chase after them. They were perhaps thinking that the golden light sphere was somewhat abnormal.
But any normal person wouldn’t spin in place for hundreds of rounds.
The golden light sphere rolled fast and unconsciously arrived in an ancient forest.
As for why it was ancient!
Because the trees in this forest were towering, comparable to the sky. The bark on the trees had peeled off layer by layer, and the roots were exposed on the ground, intertwining with each other.
Inside the light sphere.
Tobey was also tired. He stopped pushing the sphere and asked, “I think we’ve escaped from the rat horde. Let me sense it with my mental power.”
Only then did Luke remember that his spiritual aperture had been opened up, giving him access to the usage of mental powers.
Tobey angrily said, “Why didn’t you use your mental power to sense the situation outside when we were pushing the sphere just now?”
“Call me brother, and I’ll tell you!” Luke tried to salvage his IQ and dignity.
He wouldn’t tell Tobey that he had forgotten about having mental power due to the life and death ordeal just now.
Tobey sneered. No one knew better than him how Luke was like. This guy probably forgot about having mental power because of the life and death experience just now.
They grew up together, so they knew each other well.
Using mental power, Luke discovered another thing.
He could control the emperor seed.
Controlling the emperor seed with mental power.
Suddenly, the golden light sphere floated in mid-air.
Tobey: “???”
Tobey and Colton, who were covered in mud, were instantly enraged.
Luke could control the golden light sphere to fly, but he still made them push the sphere for most of the night.
This was too frustrating!
Tobey suppressed the impulse to chop Luke to death, asking with an expressionless face, “If you can control this thing to fly, why did you make us push it?”
“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”
Luke, who was controlling the golden light sphere, swayed it around and began to b.u.mp into things.
However, in this vast ancient forest, a terrifying behemoth was awakened.
It opened its eyes, which were vertical like washbasins.
Its eyes showed cold indifference and supreme majesty as it coldly stared at the golden light sphere in front of it. It quickly rolled toward it, and soon it reached in front of it, then collided with it head on.
Bang!
One collision was not enough; it was followed by a second.
And a third!
The ancient terrifying behemoth’s beastly eyes faintly revealed a trace of anger. It slowly moved.
A small mountain was moving!
It raised its claws and pressed down on the golden light sphere, giving it a gentle push.
Bang!
The golden light sphere shattered.
