Chapter 98
Suddenly, her sight was blocked by Phil. Phil only blocked the line of sight between her and Wen Gengting, and quickly squatted down again.
Cheng Fu felt her ankles were cold and found that Phil was using water to scrub her ankles which had just been entangled by contaminants.
He raised his head, as if he just remembered to answer Cheng Fu's question, and said softly, "I will work hard for the second little red flower, but I'm happy enough to have just one."
Phil stretched out his hand, not knowing whether he was checking whether the cleanliness was adequate or for other reasons, but as he spoke, he gently rubbed the skin near Cheng Fu's ankle with his fingertips, making Cheng Fu not know whether she should listen to him carefully or divert her attention elsewhere?
Cheng Fu pretended to be calm: "I am very optimistic about you."
She was not lying when she said this, because Phil's enthusiasm had always been among the top of her beastly husbands. If it weren't for Kelleher now, even if Phil said he was second, no one would dare to say he was first.
However, most of her beastly husbands are indeed awkward and reserved. Occasionally, a few of them are straightforward and can serve as a catalyst for livening up the interaction among the beastly husbands.
But... Cheng Fu couldn't help but look at the two completely opposite figures, one black and one white, in the bubble in the front.
It seemed that no matter how much the beastly husbands behind them quarreled, the place where they were was like a pure land, undisturbed, and they were only focused on their business.
Cheng Fu thought that with Eulenus's personality, after hearing that she had been given a red flower and that her progress was obviously ahead of Kelleher's, he would definitely seize the opportunity to mock others.
However, his performance surprised Cheng Fu the most.
But think about it, Cheng Fu saw the figure beside him who seemed to stand upright at all times. Since the birth of Eulenus, he has had a child from a wealthy family like Signus by his side. Now he is under Signus's nose. Cheng Fu thought that if it were her, she would definitely not want to let down in front of the person she regarded as a competitor at the critical moment.
"The main body of the pollutant is still some distance away, but look at those..." Olenus' voice sounded, and everyone looked forward.
It was difficult to light a fire in the sea, so Signus thought about it and cast a healing spell on Ourenus. A white light came on, which was just enough for them to see the scene on the seabed.
Eulenus: "..."
Healing is just a by-product, right?
Thanks to Signus, they did get a good look at the bottom of the ocean.
"So many fish eggs gathered together..." Xiao Wanyi's face turned ugly when he thought of the frog eggs in the cave.
"Look at the size, it's obviously the eggs of a giant beast. The reason why they are so concentrated... could it be the work of pollutants?" Wen Geng couldn't help but doubt it.
They had never seen the giant beast in its juvenile or egg form before, only mature forms.
Seeing the giant beast's eggs again at such a close distance, it is hard not to associate them with pollutants.
Moreover, the expressions of several guardian beasts gradually became solemn.
Kelleher looked at the other two bubbles. The three guardian beasts happened to fall into three different bubbles.
"I can't sense these eggs, can you?"
Behemoths hate ruins, so staying in ruins at night is basically the safest option.
The guardian beast could sense the breath of the giant beast to some extent, but this was the first time that it was so close to the beast but still couldn't detect the other party's existence at all.
Phil shook his head: "I can't sense them either."
"Could this be the purpose of pollutants?" Xi Qiancheng had to make this guess.
When coincidences become more and more, it is very likely that they are not coincidences, but someone did it deliberately.
Signus was already considering the worst-case scenario: "The giant beasts can't approach the ruins, but is it possible... that they can in their egg form?"
Once someone sends the soon-to-hatch beast eggs into the ruins, then the giant beast will not be a threat from outside, but will emerge from within the ruins!
In the ruins, besides ordinary orcs, there are also guardian beasts and pollutants!
"If the pollutants and the behemoth join forces, the guardian beasts in the ruins will be in danger." The more Cheng Fu thought about it, the more she felt that this matter might be far more serious than they initially thought.
A large number of hatched behemoths and pollutants working together to deal with the guardian beasts are likely to break the current balance and accelerate the collapse of the ruins.
"This matter must be conveyed. If it were just beast eggs, ordinary people could handle it. The problem is that where there are beast eggs, there may be lurking pollutants that escape. We must gather manpower before taking action." Kelleher said this, but he knew very well how difficult it was to deal with the escaped pollutants.
The pollutants in his ruins had not yet consumed him, but the stalemate between the two had lasted for a long time. If he had not met Cheng Fu, he would have died that day and become the nutrients of the pollutants, without even leaving the slightest trace of his existence in this world.
As Kelleher thought this, his eyes were fixed on the dark sea. Even his pupils turned vertical as he observed the seabed which seemed calm but was actually full of dangers.
Suddenly, he caught sight of something out of the corner of his eye. Before he could warn them, his body moved faster than his words. He used his body to hit the bubble they were in, knocking open the bubble where Cheng Fu was originally.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Wanyi almost lost his balance. The next second, the bubble shook again. He thought that Kelleher was going crazy again, but Xiao Wanyi found that the shaking amplitude of the bubble was unusual.
If it could be shaken up and down like this just by the impact of an orc, that would be too ridiculous.
Ollenus sighed softly, "The tentacles of this pollutant are too long, and the main body is too far away from the tentacles, so it seems that its scent is everywhere!"
"Then let's all attack together!" Cheng Fu simply drew her bow and arrow and shot it towards one place.
Unfortunately, the light was insufficient and Cheng Fu's arrow missed by a few centimeters.
The light brought by the light arrow illuminated the sea. Wen Gengting frowned and realized that the bubble they were in was tightly entangled by the tentacles of pollutants.
Moreover, if it weren't for Kelleher's previous collision, the target of the pollutants should have been Cheng Fu!
Of course Cheng Fu could see it clearly.
Kelleher's collision directly broke their bubble and knocked her into Phil's arms. Cheng Fu was still confused, but soon she understood why Kelleher did that.
He would rather take the place of Cheng Fu and get hurt, but he couldn't move around in the sea, so he had to resort to this last resort.
Kelleher also said to Xiao Wanyi: "Now, light the fire! Let her see more clearly!"
Xiao Wan also had the experience of lighting a target as the bull's eye the first time, so he was naturally familiar with it the second time.
Fire cannot be ignited in seawater, but it has nothing to fear in the bubbles created by the guardian beast.
