"Rabbit reports that Uncle Steward has been sent away."
"Lan Qing reports that the senior students in the dining hall have been sent away."
Just as the little ones were all staring longingly at the dining hall not far away, suddenly, the communication jade tokens on Shushu and Tutu, who were at the forefront of the little ones' army, lit up at the same time.
Upon closer inspection, it was clear that the message was relayed by Rabbit One and Lan Qing, who had gone to keep watch.
Once they saw what was on it, both the little potato and the rabbit's eyes lit up. They exchanged a glance, nodded silently, and gestured to their little tails behind them. Then, the two little ones took the lead and rushed out.
Seeing this, the little ones behind them carefully and quickly followed in their footsteps, each with an expression of excitement and anticipation on their face.
There was also a baby crane and a baby rabbit. Because they were only born not long ago, their feathers had not grown in yet, and their little feet were a bit wobbly when they walked, so they couldn't keep up.
Seeing this, the other older cubs immediately paired up, one cub on each side, and carried the baby cubs forward at full speed, with no one falling behind or being left behind.
Upon seeing this, the group of large beasts who knew what the little ones were doing and were secretly watching from behind all smiled.
Among them were the manager, whom they thought had been lured away, and the senior students from the dining hall.
After all, they were kids he had watched grow up, so how could the manager really bear to mistreat them? The reason he pulled this stunt was just to tease them.
At the time, the manager would never admit that he actually just wanted to tease the baby.
Originally, according to his plan, the silver fish would be available in the next few days. However, he did not expect that the little ones would be so impatient and come up with such a trick to catch fish.
He was really looking forward to seeing how the kids would behave when they explored the kitchen, where he had prepared a special gift for them.
Thinking of this, the manager looked at the group of kids excitedly rushing towards the kitchen, and instead of being angry, he smiled with particularly malicious intent.
The people who were originally standing next to him were so frightened that they silently moved away from him several steps. There was no other reason than that they felt that such a manager was terrifying.
Meanwhile, Shushu and Tutu had already led the charge into the kitchen.
Using the crossbows they had just obtained from the peak master of the weapon-making peak, they silently broke through the restrictions left by the steward and were immediately confronted by the entire courtyard of thorny sunflowers.
Before they could react, the flower buds, poised to unleash their power, began spraying stingers like a rain of arrows, throwing the little ones into chaos.
"Oops! We've fallen for their trap! Run!"
"Everyone, don't come in! Run! It's full of Spiny Sunflowers, there aren't any Silver Fish, ouch!"
"Waaah! I've turned into a pig-beast!"
Compared to the panicked cubs, the thorny sunflowers behind them were clearly excited, with one group even chasing after the sorghum and the rabbit.
It was clearly premeditated. If the little potato and the rabbit looked closely, they could even find familiar faces among them.
However, the potato and the rabbit had neither the time nor the mood to watch, because they were busy thinking about running away.
Unfortunately, there were too many other people following behind, and they couldn't find a place to squeeze out in a short time, becoming the first victims.
In a short while, the two cute little mice and rabbits swelled up into strange shapes.
Of course, the offspring behind them weren't much better off. Every single one of them was completely changed. Except for a few at the very back that were stuck in the air, almost all of them were affected.
After all, no one expected that the steward would give them such a big surprise.
In the end, after realizing they had been tricked, the little ones simply gave up and stopped trying to dodge. After dragging the few survivors down with them, turning them into pig-beasts, they launched a counterattack, heading straight for the Flame-Scorching Sunflower.
In an instant, the situation reversed, and this time it was the Spiny Sunflower that ran away.
As they ran, they fought with their babies, and fluffy leaves and other debris fell all over the ground.
Unfortunately, the thorny sunflower was ultimately the loser. The children held it down and pulled out most of its thorns before they reconciled and lay half-dead together in the yard.
The steward swaggered in at that moment, and when he saw the bunch of kids and the thorny sunflowers looking utterly hopeless, he immediately burst out laughing.
"Oh dear, what happened? Why are you fighting? Hey, little potato and little bunny, what happened to you?"
By the end, the manager's tone was full of laughter, which made Shushu and Tutu secretly pinch their little paws. After giving their friends a wink, they all pounced on the manager.
Upon seeing this, the manager immediately tensed up and turned to run away, only to find that the road behind him was already blocked.
Even in the sky, little cranes and peacocks flew, each with thorns in its claws and its eyes fixed on him with a piercing gaze, exuding a strong sense of threat.
Looking at the swollen little ones surrounding him, the manager swallowed hard and, without hesitation, quickly added several layers of shields to himself.
Just as he was about to show off, he saw Shushu and Tutu silently take out the unlocked crossbow.
At first glance, it was a high-level one. His own shield was no match for it. Instantly, the manager felt relieved.
"You want to eat silverfish, right? Come on, Uncle has some here, here you go."
As he spoke, he pulled out a storage ring with a hint of flattery and looked at the leaders of the little ones, namely Shushu and Tutu.
But he couldn't help feeling annoyed. He should have known better than to come out now. Sigh!
The two little ones, Shushu and Tutu, naturally guessed what the manager was thinking. They huffed arrogantly and told Boss Xian to go and get the storage ring.
Once they were sure the storage ring was full of silverfish and there was no trickery, the rabbit and rat waved their paws, signaling that everyone could step back.
So, the children surrounding the manager and the Thorn Flame Sunflower all made way, their actions so swift that even the manager couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Then, the little ones, having received their beloved silverfish, began to leave the kitchen in an orderly fashion, heading towards the place they had agreed upon beforehand.
Only after confirming that the last baby had gone far away did Shushu summon his flying artifact and jump up with Tutu.
Before leaving, Shushu slyly tossed a storage ring to the steward.
"Uncle, these are the spirit stones we used to buy the silver fish."
After saying that, without waiting for the steward's reaction, she controlled her flying magical artifact and sped away.
Seeing this, the steward, somewhat suspicious, wrapped the storage ring with a magical artifact. Seeing that there was nothing unusual outside, he even used his divine sense to probe the storage ring. After finding that there were only spirit stones inside and nothing else, he reached out and picked it up.
The next moment, the steward's voice rang out in alarm, almost cracking: "You two brats, come back here! Who taught you to hide thorns like that? Ugh, I'm so angry!"
Clearly, the manager had been stabbed again.
