Chapter 287 Mian Tian’s Ability
"Is it cold? I don't feel cold..." Su Qianqian subconsciously looked up at the sky above her head when she heard that. The sky was bright and blue in the afternoon. Although it was not as hot as before, the scorching sun still made people feel very hot.
"Uh, yeah, yeah..." Shi Yuan touched his nose and glanced at Mian Tian, who was shivering beside him. "But why do I feel a chill running up my spine?"
"What did you say?" Su Qianqian turned her head to look in his direction, and just caught a glimpse of Mian Tian's eyes that he had not yet retracted. The eyes were dark and cold, making people shudder at the sight of them.
Su Qianqian suspected she had seen it wrong, because Mian Tianxia had instantly changed back to his original cold and indifferent appearance, so fast that she couldn't react at all. When she looked at him, his expressionless face even showed a hint of innocence and obedience...
Ah this...
At this moment, Su Qianqian felt it was ridiculous. How could someone change their face faster than turning pages of a book?
……
The group hurried and finally arrived at the mountain.
Su Qianqian glanced around. This deep mountain and dense forest seemed to be unaffected by the hot weather outside. The tall ancient trees were still covered with green shade. The woods were shady and misty, and the strange smell of resin and earth lingered.
"Everyone, be careful. There are a lot of wild animals in this area." Nan Wu pointed to the grass not far away and reminded everyone.
Su Qianqian looked in the direction where she saw the grass covered with dead branches and leaves, and was filled with footprints of wild animals.
Some of the footprints were quite large, nearly half a meter long. It was hard to imagine how massive the original footprints were...
The group had not gone far when they encountered two wild beasts that looked like fanged porcupines blocking their way.
The body of the fanged porcupine was as thick as a hill, and its fangs burst out from both sides of its mouth. They were thick, pointed and sharp, and looked very scary.
"Stand back and let me come!"
Shi Yuanshou took the brunt of the attack and rushed forward, transforming into a beast-like brown bear.
A porcupine with sharp teeth was immediately knocked dozens of meters away by Shi Yuan's brute force.
Seeing this, the other fanged porcupine scratched its hooves uneasily, as if realizing that Shi Yuan was a tough guy. It turned around and rushed towards Su Qianqian, the thin female.
This beast is quite clever, it only targets those who look easy to bully.
However, it may be miscalculating.
Just as Su Qianqian was about to launch the ice cone condensed in her hand, a ball of faint flame suddenly flew out from her side and hit the fanged porcupine that was rushing towards her.
In an instant, everyone heard a shrill scream that resounded throughout the entire forest. In the blink of an eye, they saw the fanged porcupine, as strong and tall as a hill, covered in dark blue flames. It howled in pain, rolled and thrashed on the ground, as if trying to put out the flames burning on its body.
But it was obvious that this flame was not an ordinary flame. It was emitting a faint blue light, like a maggot on the tarsal bone. No matter how you flapped your wings, you couldn't extinguish it. It only burned more and more fiercely.
The terrifying high temperature emitted from the blue flames was so intense that everyone could feel it even from a distance, as if they were about to be roasted.
"It's so hot! Why is the fire so hot?!" Everyone wiped the sweat from their foreheads and quickly took a few steps back.
"Miantian, you, you actually have superpowers?!" Su Qianqian was obviously more interested in the blue flames than the heat. "What kind of superpower is this? Is it fire-related? It doesn't look like it..."
Normal flames should be red, but the dark blue flames released by Mian Tian were a bit like will-o'-the-wisp, or the legendary hellfire...
"...I don't know either." Facing Su Qianqian's question, Mian Tian shook his head and said calmly, "Ever since I awakened my superpowers, this flame has been like this."
Upon hearing this, Su Qianqian subconsciously looked at the back of Mian Tian's neck. There was no animal mark on the boy's cold white skin.
what happened?
Isn't it said that after an orc awakens his superpowers, beast patterns will grow on the back of his neck? The number of beast patterns represents the level of his superpowers...
But why is there no Mian Tian?
When she changed the dressing for Mian Tian, she didn't see any animal marks anywhere else on his body.
Could it be...hidden?
Thinking of this, Su Qianqian's eyes darkened. She had heard Gillian say before that generally only orcs with strength above level seven were able to hide the beast patterns on their bodies.
The four great wizards of Wanshou City have barely reached the seventh level in strength, but none of them can completely hide the beast marks on their bodies. How did Mian Tian do it?
Is he more powerful than the four wizards of Wanshou City?
Just as he was thinking, Shi Yuan had already returned with another fanged porcupine in his mouth. He looked at everyone blankly, not daring to breathe, and spat out the porcupine in his mouth. He asked, "What are you doing here? Where's the other prey?"
Nan Wu silently pointed to a handful of ashes on the ground not far away.
But in the time it took to speak, the fanged porcupine was burned alive to ashes, leaving not even a bone residue.
"Huh?" Shi Yuan turned around in surprise, still not understanding. "What is this pile of ash?"
Su Qianqian coughed lightly, walked forward, and looked at the fanged porcupine that Shi Yuan had brought back. It had been bitten to death. So she waved her hand unceremoniously and put it into her storage ring, saying, "This round, Shi Yuan wins for now. Xiaomian, although your fire is very strong, the purpose of our trip to the mountain this time is to hunt. You burned the prey, so you lose."
Facing Su Qianqian's judgment, Mian Tian didn't say anything. He just glanced at the ashes on the ground calmly, then nodded and said, "I understand. I will leave the body intact next time."
"Uh...if possible, you can also leave some alive." Su Qianqian said carefully, "For example, we can capture some wild deer or wild goats and bring them back to the tribe to raise."
"Why should we raise these wild beasts?" Shi Yuan was very puzzled by Su Qianqian's suggestion. In his eyes, prey were all food and not worth the effort to raise them.
Moreover, catching prey is not an easy task. If you don't take the opportunity to kill the prey with one bite, the prey will easily escape, let alone catch it alive.
"If you don't have that strength, just give up as soon as possible." Mian Tian said coldly, turned around and rushed into the dense forest ahead.
"Who are you calling incompetent?!" Shi Yuan was immediately enraged by Mian Tian's words. He didn't care about anything else and ran to catch up with Mian Tian. "Just wait for me, kid! It's just a matter of catching some live prey. I'll catch them in a minute!"
The two of them rushed into the forest together and disappeared in a moment.
Nan Wu showed a worried look: "That's the inner area of the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts. There might be powerful beasts hiding in there. Why don't we let them come back..."
"It's okay, nothing will happen to them." Su Qianqian concealed the meaningful look in her eyes, and just in time she caught a glimpse of several cuckoo beasts flying into the bushes from the corner of her eye. The smile on her face suddenly deepened.
