Xiao Mao had no objections; he was already very satisfied to be able to participate in the battle.
Qingluan wrinkled her nose slightly; this arrangement was far removed from the image of a powerful and influential figure in her dreams.
Fang Qingdai smiled and gently pinched her nose, comforting her, "After this mission is over, I'll take you to find powerful mutated plants. Once you have a top-tier helper, you'll be ready to go to the battlefield!"
Not to mention the Azure Phoenix, she also urgently needs more powerful mutated plants.
She really doesn't feel safe with just Xiao Teng by herself!
Qingluan nodded, and after arriving at the mission location, she obediently found a safe spot to stay with Xiao Mao.
Xiao Mao was very excited. He pulled Qingluan to a sand dune with a good view, and then with a wave of his hand, four earthen walls appeared out of thin air, protecting the two of them.
"How about it? Isn't my earth shield amazing?" He looked at Qingluan proudly, expectantly waiting for her praise.
Qingluan nodded, but hesitated, "But how can we monitor the situation of my sisters if the seal is so tight?"
Xiao Mao's smug expression froze for a moment. He glanced at the completely enclosed space with no ventilation, then waved his hand sullenly and tore down the earthen wall.
Qingluan's lips moved slightly; she wanted to say that it didn't need to be completely torn down, just a few openings to make windows would suffice.
But her mouth wasn't as fast as Xiao Mao's movements; in the blink of an eye, the four walls had disappeared.
Xiao Mao is eager to get started, designing a new defensive wall.
In just a short while, I suddenly felt a strong gust of wind rushing towards me!
Qingluan's expression changed drastically as she looked behind Xiao Mao. Before she could even warn him, the yellow figure had already gotten close to Xiao Mao!
The sharp claws gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and one could foresee how flesh and blood would fly when one claw struck!
If you're unlucky, your major artery could be severed!
It's a desert cat!
Fang Qingdai and the others, who were still setting up traps in the distance, also noticed what was happening to Xiao Mao. Fang Qingdai's expression changed, and she shouted hoarsely, "Xiao Mao!"
When the desert cat's claws were only centimeters away from Xiao Mao's neck, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.
But the next second, an earthen wall suddenly appeared, barely blocking the desert cat's attack!
Xiao Mao suddenly turned around, waving his hand wildly. Before the desert cat, which had just crashed into the earthen wall, could react, it was trapped in an earthen cage!
Little Mao's eyes lit up: "I caught it!"
Fang Qingdai and the others, who were halfway there, breathed a sigh of relief.
The next second, the desert cat trapped in the earthen cage raised its sharp claws and tore open a gap in the three-finger-thick earthen tunnel with its two claws!
Xiao Mao's expression changed. He was about to use his superpower to fill the gap when several vines suddenly emerged and instantly entered the cage, binding the desert cat like a dumpling!
Especially its four claws with sharp nails, which were completely wrapped in vines and unable to move!
Xiao Mao turned around abruptly and saw Qingluan's hand still raised in mid-air, making a gesture to control the vines.
"Thank you so much, little sister! You're so reliable!"
Fang Qingdai, who had finally arrived, was panting heavily. Looking at the two who were smugly trying to take credit, she said irritably, "You two, stand on higher ground. More desert cats will be coming to your door soon!"
These two idiots chose the highest and most conspicuous sand dune in the area; no wonder the desert cat spotted them immediately.
Fortunately, the two of them seemed stunned, but they reacted quickly and actually managed to capture a desert cat by working together!
To everyone's surprise, after Fang Qingdai finished scolding, her two eyes, one big and one small, sparkled, and she said in unison, "Okay!"
"Sis, let's use this place as bait!"
Xiao Mao was excited and quickly erected an earthen wall to enclose him and Qingluan.
This time, the earthen wall is cage-shaped, with alternating horizontal and vertical grids, like a birdcage.
"Sister, give us some more bait. Brother Xiao Mao and I will stay inside as bait. You guys hide and wait for the desert cats to appear before catching them!" Qingluan also reached out her hand with great interest, asking Fang Qingdai for bait.
Fang Qingdai was ready to refuse without thinking. She didn't trust the two of them. One had just activated his superpower, and the other was too young. They were not reliable at all!
Huang Changming and Xuan Liu both thought the idea was good: "This is great. Desert cats are too fast. If we hide around, we still have a chance to get close. Otherwise, we strength-types will be at a disadvantage."
Xuanba also said, "If there is a conspicuous bait, my fireball will hit the target more easily."
Xiao Mao's Earth Release technique has a high density, which can block fireballs. Even if Xuan Ba directly throws a fireball, there is no need to worry about accidental injury.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Fang Qingdai remained silent for a while.
She was really worried.
But seeing Xiao Mao and Qing Luan so excited and eager to get started, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.
The wasteland is not like the 21st century; children cannot be raised like flowers in a greenhouse.
Qingluan is especially gifted, and the challenges she will face in the future will only become greater and more numerous. Overprotecting her now will not benefit her growth.
After thinking it through, Fang Qingdai sighed and nodded: "Alright, then you two will be the bait!"
She decided to lie in ambush closer so that if anything happened, she could rush over immediately and pull the two of them into the space.
After giving out a bottle of lure, Fang Qingdai and the remaining team members scattered around the earthen cage and lay in ambush.
Everyone buried themselves in sand to avoid leaving a trace.
Fang Qingdai was originally burying herself, but then she suddenly realized that she could have easily hidden in the space, so why was she burying herself?
She shrank into the space, took a position, and stared intently at the direction of the earthen cage.
With the help of the lure, it wasn't long before some desert cats showed up.
"Two in the southwest direction."
