Fang Qingdai suddenly frowned.
The base originally had six healing-type ability users, but two of them went missing a few days ago.
Of the four remaining in the base, one was Mao Ling, and the woman in front of them was also one of them.
She was actually a member of Zhu Lingfeng's organization!
It's estimated that the two healing-type ability users who went missing earlier were also taken away by this woman.
Fang Qingdai had been wondering before that two living people, especially rare healing types, should have been under the base's close protection, so how could they have been captured so easily?
It turns out there was a ghost right next to them, and they probably colluded with someone from the inside to trick and deceive people away!
Back at base, remind Mao Ling to be careful of this woman and find out more about her background so we can follow the clues and find out more.
And that man...
He was still cursing and swearing, and seemed to have a very fiery temper.
Fang Qingdai was somewhat worried, unsure whether to deal with the people directly and then rescue the test subjects, or to use a diversionary tactic.
To be honest, either approach would alert the enemy.
As long as the test subjects in the secret passage go missing, Zhu Lingfeng will inevitably suspect Fang Qingdai, after all, she is the only space-type ability user, and only she has the ability to hide so many people without anyone knowing!
Fang Qingdai didn't want to reveal too much. What she had shown so far was enough to arouse Zhu Lingfeng's suspicion. If she went any further, she was worried that Zhu Lingfeng would be desperate and kill her even without evidence, just in case.
After much thought, Fang Qingdai came up with Jing Yi's plan.
Jing Yi plans to use the metal-type ability user in conjunction with the vortex quicksand to destroy and seal the passage.
Although there are no quicksand vortexes here, there are even more destructive beasts!
However, the beasts are uncontrollable. If they are recklessly led into the stronghold, even a slight mistake could result in a large number of casualties.
She had to find a way to completely control the beast's behavior.
The spatial water can indeed attract strange beasts, but the attracted beasts will go berserk in their struggle for the spatial water, making them even more difficult to control...
If only I had the abilities of the red fox!
Upon realizing this, Fang Qingdai frowned.
Although she still wanted to torment the red fox and avenge it for teasing and hurting the cat, she needed it to take some real action right now, so Fang Qingdai had to pinch her nose and turn to the black barrier.
After opening the black barrier, Fang Qingdai got straight to the point: "How about we make a deal?"
The red fox, like a dog, wrinkled its nose and sniffed around, circling as if searching for something. Suddenly seeing a light, it squinted its narrow eyes uncomfortably.
Upon seeing Fang Qingdai, it stopped sniffing and sat up straight and obediently, looking at Fang Qingdai with a fawning expression.
Fang Qingdai raised her eyebrows. This guy was indeed very perceptive. The paulownia wood displayed its power and completely bewitched the fox, making him lose all his previous arrogance!
It was precisely because it had a need that Fang Qingdai boldly approached it to discuss cooperation.
Fang Qingdai pointed towards the paulownia tree and asked the red fox, "You like it, don't you? I can't let you hurt its branches and leaves, but I can let you stay under the tree and get close to it!"
"By the way, I do the kind of thing that triggers the tree spirit every day. If you help me do what I want to do, you can stay by my side and receive the tree spirit's gifts every day I trigger it!"
Fang Qingdai made it up.
There were no tree spirits, and she wasn't sure if the red fox could get any energy from the paulownia wood if it stayed nearby.
But when Fang Qingdai received energy feedback today, the red fox did sense it and showed signs of actively coveting it.
Therefore, Fang Qingdai used this as bait, hoping that the red fox could help her achieve her wish.
Fang Qingdai had initially worried that the words were too long and convoluted and that the red fox wouldn't understand, but she had clearly underestimated the red fox's intelligence.
As soon as she finished speaking, the red fox nodded frantically, its little head almost shaking out a blur!
Fang Qingdai was quite surprised, and looked back at the paulownia tree, seemingly lost in thought.
She had verified that the paulownia tree had the ability to draw upon wood-based energy and promote plant growth.
Previously, I took it for granted that the paulownia tree was a tree, a sacred tree, and that it was only natural for it to have an impact on plants.
Little did they know that it also had such a strong influence on animals.
The cat hadn't shown much enthusiasm for the paulownia tree before.
wrong……
Fang Qingdai recalled the similar actions she took when she made a contract with the cat. She seemed to hear a faint phoenix cry. Although she did not achieve the same level of understanding as Xiao Teng, she could still sense the cat's subtle emotions.
That faint connection seemed to be gradually strengthening. Now, Fang Qingdai could communicate with the cat on the battlefield, and the two of them were invincible when they worked together.
I used to think it was just a tacit understanding that the two of us had developed, but when I think about it carefully, how could a wild and untamed desert cat really be absolutely obedient to her based on just a couple of empty vows?
How could they possibly develop perfect teamwork in just a few days of fighting?
It's probably still the effect of that phoenix cry.
It seems that, witnessed by the divine tree and the divine beast, they reached some kind of pact that was recorded by heaven and earth!
Therefore, paulownia wood does have an impact on cats, and a significant one at that!
The reason why the red fox is even more fascinated is probably because it is a spirit-type, and spirits are more sensitive to the divine power of the paulownia tree!
After figuring it out, Fang Qingdai revealed a sly smile.
She squinted, her expression even more cunning than the red fox: "Little fox, do you want to live under that sycamore tree forever, sleeping hugging the trunk every day?"
The red fox's eyes shone like two small light bulbs. It stood up, placed its front paws on the barrier, stuck out its tongue, and nodded frantically, looking exactly like a sycophant in an ancient imperial palace!
He has such a servile look on his face!
Fang Qingdai then took another cup of spatial water and placed it inside the barrier.
The red fox sniffed, its eyes narrowed slightly, and it happily stuck out its tongue to take a bite. Then its eyes suddenly lit up!
Temporarily ignoring the paulownia tree, the red fox happily finished a whole cup of spatial water before clearing its mind to look at Fang Qingdai with longing eyes again.
Fang Qingdai smiled: "Do you want to drink this kind of divine water every day?"
The red fox looked more and more like a dog, its tongue lolling out excitedly.
Judging from its appearance, it's just short of kneeling down and kowtowing to Fang Qingdai!
Fang Qingdai's voice grew softer and more seductive: "If you want, then make a contract with me!"
"Be my partner, fight alongside me, we'll forge a pact with our lives, and never betray each other!"
The red fox froze, its fawning expression vanishing. It narrowed its long, narrow eyes, scrutinizing Fang Qingdai inch by inch, its wariness and indifference evident in its gaze.
Fang Qingdai cursed inwardly.
That sly fox, she put on such a convincing act, but she was perfectly clear-headed and wasn't brainwashed by Fang Qingdai at all!
