Despite the countless times the dark and dangerous emotions and forces surging within him, he was drawn into a dangerous situation.
but--
"I'm sorry, I will never do that again."
She Rong stepped forward and hugged Mao Duoduo tightly, repeatedly apologizing.
"She Rong, you're too strong." Mao Duoduo was caught off guard by the attack, mainly because the other party was strong and made her look particularly petite.
The two embraced, their intimacy and ambiguity almost burning away all pretense.
Cat Duoduo was both amused and exasperated. Even so, she could only cooperate and hug the other person back, gently clapping her hands.
She closed her eyes and told herself that things would get better from now on.
At this moment, the Serpent Rong slowly opened its eyes. Now, half of its pupils were a normal color, while the other was a strange scarlet.
Surprisingly, at this moment, he was a combination of reason and madness. Despite being in such a dangerous state, Snake Rong felt that if Cat Duoduo were by his side, he would be willing to stay in this state for the rest of his life.
Sunlight shone on the river.
The two figures embracing were reflected on the river, creating an atmosphere of extraordinary ambiguity and warmth.
When two people get back together, it's obvious from their interactions without them saying a word.
The cubs were overjoyed, excitedly banging on the bowls, indicating they wanted to celebrate properly, since they hadn't dared to eat much since their parents had argued.
"...That's hilarious! You ate so much before, and you still have the nerve to say you didn't eat much?" Cat Duo Duo smiled helplessly, tapped their heads, and quickly prepared a lot of delicious food for them.
At that moment, Gal also arrived.
"Gal, have a taste." Cat Dodo looked at the other person and couldn't help but smile, offering the other person the delicious food.
"Alright~" Gal smiled, ignoring the wary cub, thinking to himself that the most dangerous one should be the Serpent Rong.
The fact that the Serpent Barbarians showed no wariness towards his arrival gave him an unexpectedly unpleasant feeling...
Even so, after finishing his meal, Gal still took the initiative to tell people about his job.
They're taking a headcount, packing belongings, and finalizing plans for food storage and relocation over the next two months. They've even identified several suitable temporary accommodations.
The other party was so efficient that even CatDodo, who had boldly declared that he was giving up on White Tiger City, had to apologize, saying, "I'm sorry, I only said one sentence and you're already so busy."
"It's alright. To be honest, starting to build a city in another place doesn't seem like a bad idea." Gal thought for a moment, then chuckled softly as he revealed that he had also dreamed of learning from his ancestors and building his own White Tiger City.
It's important to understand that White Tiger City has been in use for a long time, and it has experienced many things in the past, so there are actually quite a few places that need repair, and the workload is considerable.
Sometimes, this patching-up work takes more effort and thought than starting from scratch...
"Thank you, Gal, for believing me."
CatDodo sighed and decided to tell the other person, "I've decided to go to the volcano tomorrow."
Noticing the serious look on Gal's face, CatDodo shrugged. "There's not much time left, I should give it a try. Whether it's true or not, I don't want my nightmare to become reality."
Regarding this, Gal never doubted CatDodo from beginning to end.
He simply nodded, then said to Senjie, who had just arrived, "Please take good care of the city's residents for the next period of time."
These words were enough to make Senjie's hands tremble and his belongings fall to the ground.
He stammered, "Gahr, where are you headed?"
In fact, Maoduoduo was also stunned, with Tuski screaming in her heart.
No way, don't tell her, Gal is already planning to leave White Tiger City...
As it turned out, her wild fantasies didn't come true. Instead, Gal smiled brightly and said, "I want to go with them to the volcano."
"How can you go! It's too dangerous there, even dangerous..." Senjie rushed to dissuade them without saying a word, and even kept giving Maoduoduo meaningful glances.
She felt really bad about the cat, and couldn't very well say that she was the one who started it. She guiltily looked away.
Gal said, "Don't worry, it won't be long."
As if he had thought of something, Gal smiled and asked CatDodo, "Would you mind if I were to join you as someone who might only be able to watch?"
Senjie kept giving Maoduoduo meaningful glances: hurry up and refuse.
The cubs and the Serpent Kings all looked at CatDodo: Should they refuse? Although, Gal's joining didn't really affect them.
Regarding this, Maoduoduo's throat moved, and finally she said, "Okay."
As if anticipating what Senjie might say, she proactively said to the person, "Don't worry, everything will be fine. We'll handle this quickly."
—If everything is correct.
Senjie sighed, looking at Gal's seemingly smiling but actually unyielding demeanor, and gave CatDodo a particularly resentful glance.
"...Alright, anyway, no matter what I say, you've already thought it through."
Upon hearing this, Maoduoduo immediately began to cough violently.
What can she say? She should just accept it obediently for now.
"Okay, let's go together."
Seeing Mao Duoduo's reaction, She Rong suddenly spoke.
In fact, his reaction surprised most people.
In particular, Gal looked at Serpent Rong with a puzzled expression, almost suspecting that the person in front of him had been replaced.
She Rong lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Since it's your choice, I'm willing to cooperate."
Look how perfectly these words resonate with people's thoughts.
At the very least, Maoduoduo did show a moved expression, "She Rong."
Gal watched this scene thoughtfully. "Very good, it seems the Serpent Kings have evolved. They seem to be becoming increasingly troublesome and dangerous."
Even so, he believed he would not lose to the Serpent Rong.
Since that's what they've said, no matter how helpless Senjie felt, he could only pat his chest and promise that he would do a good job in this temporary supervisory role.
CatDodo packed up that very night, and the next day they set off on their journey. After all, time was running out.
This journey was relatively easy, mainly because Gal, who was familiar with the roads, led the way and helped everyone avoid potential dangers. The route was safe and close to water sources.
All of this happened at night, when everyone was about to set up camp and prepare to rest, when a loud rumbling sound came from afar, and even the ground shook.
"No way, is this an earthquake?" CatDodo's heart tightened, and she instinctively protected the snake cubs.
