My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 679 - 229 Special Spiritual Power
The group felt indebted due to the gifts they’d received, the honey-sweet mood making it seem less troubleso to search for the elusive Ke Lian. Each mber ard themselves and dispersed.
This world was fraught with danger, yet within certain boundaries, they had scouted it thoroughly enough to ensure temporary safety. Thus, they did not worry that loud calls would attract beasts, each shouting until they found Ke Lian under a dense hillside thicket.
At that mont, Ke Lian was crouched at the edge of a grassy patch, one hand on the ground, ear to the earth, seemingly observing sothing. When Mo Feng and the others approached, Ke Lian gestured for them to lower their voices.
"What is it?" Every soldier of the Blue Star Empire knew the unique sign language that allowed communication when speaking was not possible.
Mo Feng began using a few simple hand gestures to inquire of Ke Lian.
Ke Lian slightly raised his head, his gaze still fixed in the direction he was observing. He replied simply with gestures: "Unknown creature feeding, observe silently."
Everyone was focused on Ke Lian’s motions. Understanding the gestures, they exchanged glances and quickly mimicked Ke Lian’s position. Their eyes converged on the sa spot, only to be stunned by the sight of the "unknown creature."
The enormous creature strongly resembled one of the soldiers’ most detested Insect Clan mbers—the Humming Beast—with a massive flesh-pink body dotted with bits of earth, short grayish fur standing out, twitching ears, and a short curly tail...
Holding their breath, they observed the creature’s enormous mouth as it fed, their eyes falling on the sharp, long tusks, feeling more impacted by the sight than when a Humming Beast gnawed on buildings or its kin.
This creature was feeding on a conspecific pinned beneath its forelegs, visibly smaller, clearly an outco of intraspecies competition, with the smaller one losing and becoming a al for the victor.
Skin, flesh, bones, organs... The enormous creature consud bit by bit, an exceedingly bloody scene that had a combined visual and psychological impact beyond words, prompting several officers to struggle to look away.
Although the Insect Clan was vile and savage, their feeding was nowhere near as bloodthirsty and brutal as this creature’s.
Mo Feng lay beside Ke Lian, sowhat able to accept the scene, having witnessed nurous grotesque scenes alongside Ke Lian, making this bearable yet challenging. He endured without looking away.
Even so...
Mo Feng glanced at the serious expression on Ke Lian’s face, puzzled over the significance of observing this creature... Was it because it sowhat resembled a Humming Beast?
Thinking this, Mo Feng’s perspective grew sharp, as if superimposing the image of a Humming Beast on the creature, finding them increasingly alike.
Sa size, sa tusks, sa ferocity... Even surpassing the Humming Beast in those qualities! Mo Feng’s heart tightened, finally grasping Ke Lian’s intention.
The All-Star stance toward the Insect Clan was "exterminate without rcy," given how its existence continually hard their ho and people, making its existence entirely unnecessary.
Although there were no Insect Clan nearby, given this creature’s resemblance to a Humming Beast, perhaps it could be treated as such. They might even use this creature to discover a way to eliminate Humming Beasts.
With a thod to annihilate Humming Beasts, there were connections among the Insect Clan that could potentially be exploited, making their sequential extermination rely a matter of ti.
Mo Feng’s gaze on the creature burned hotter, his breath suddenly heavier, startling Ke Lian, who quickly pulled Mo Feng up. Seeing this, the others also rose, and together they sprinted up the hillside. With danger approaching, everyone’s instincts kicked in, rendering further reminder unnecessary, their steps almost perfectly synchronized.
The creature had extraordinarily acute senses, previously engrossed in its kin’s flavor that made it sowhat oblivious to its surroundings. However, as the al diminished, its perception sharpened, imdiately noticing the slight increase in Mo Feng’s breathing.
