Chapter 67 Will You Eat Your Own Wild Monsters?
Chapter 67 Will You Eat Your Own Wild Monsters?
The sun gradually moved westward, becoming larger and larger, its color began to turn orange, and its light became softer.
On a flat road that looked inconspicuous when viewed from close up, but seemed to be winding when viewed from a distance, a two-horse carriage was moving forward at a leisurely pace.
Another huge crab was wandering around the carriage, moving fast and slow, far and near.
There were golden wheat fields on the roadside, but because there was no wind today, the scene of rolling wheat waves could not be seen.
The man and the cat who poked their heads out of the carriage window were not disappointed, and quietly enjoyed the beautiful countryside.
“Hey~ I see the mountain, we’re almost there!”
The one who broke the silence was the cherry-haired boy on the crab’s back, “Uncle driving the car, hurry up!”
Happy complained, “Natsu is so noisy.”
Rod nodded, “Yeah, you don’t understand romance at all.”
Natsu was immediately annoyed by the two people singing the same tune, and bared his teeth and claws on the crab’s back, “When did you two become so close!”
Rod said, “When you were carsick.”
”Puff~” Happy tried to hold back his laughter, “And when you fell like a dog eating shit.”
”Assholes, stop the car and I’ll make you pay!” Natsu was so angry that his throat was on fire.
After a while of noise, Rod suddenly became serious:
”Naz, there are wild boars about 800 to 900 meters ahead, 5, no, 6!”
”Oh~~~ Can you see that far?”
Naz stood up on the back of the river crab and looked far away, but the road was not straight, and he could not see anything because of the terrain and wheat fields.
”Why don’t you try to smell the stench of the wild boar?”
Rod said casually, and Naz did it immediately.
He raised his head slightly, and his nose moved: “I smell it! Leave it to me!”
Naz pulled the tentacles of the river crab: “Go!”
”Naz!” Rod wanted to say that he had a plan to kill the pig, but Naz rushed too fast, and he couldn’t throw him down again.
Happi said: “Don’t worry, Natsu will be fine with wild boars.”
Rod said: “I’m worried that he will burn all the farmland.”
”Ai, that’s exactly what Natsu would do.”
”Ancient stone beetles!”
Rod sent out two groups of stone beetles to follow Natsu and be ready to… dig out firebreaks to reduce farmland losses.
”Shh~”
The driver stopped the horse: “Sorry, there are wild beasts ahead, and the horses are afraid to go.”
Rod got off the car and looked. There were indeed traces of wild beasts in the wheat fields beside the road. It might be the residual smell that made the horses afraid to move forward.
”Let’s stop here. The village is not far away.” Rod said, “Happi, get off the car!”
”Ai Sa!” Hobby flew out, still holding Natsu’s backpack and Rod’s suitcase in his hands.
Considering that there were traces of wild beasts nearby, Rhodes summoned another group of razor beaks and asked them to escort the carriage for a short distance.
Seeing the flames rising not far away, Rhodes and Habby quickly rushed towards Naz.
It took at most a few minutes to run over a distance of less than one kilometer, and that was because of the luggage.
And in these few minutes, Naz had already solved the battle.
Six wild boars of different sizes lay quietly on the ground, and the flames in the wheat field had not been completely extinguished.
Fortunately, the stone beetles dug out a barrier, so the fire did not spread to more places.
“Ahahaha…” Natsu, the culprit, laughed heartlessly with his hands on his hips, “Now you know how powerful I am, stupid wild boar!”
Happy flew over with Natsu’s luggage: “Natsu~”
”Happy, Rod, you are late, I solved them all! Ahahaha…”
He was very proud, as if he had won a three-person hunting competition.
Happy said: “Natsu is very strong, but you almost burned all the wheat fields.”
”It didn’t burn.” ”That’s because of Rod’s digging worms.”
”It’s a stone beetle.” Rod corrected, and then said to Natsu, ”Please, can you think clearly when using fire in farmland, woodland, and villages?”
”I have thought it through.” Natsu waved his fist, and a little flame came out of his fist, “Using so much fire is just enough to solve the wild boar. ”
Rod said angrily: “I asked you to think about the consequences and not burn the farmland!”
”Aren’t you still here!” Natsu said with a smile, “Sure enough, Mira said that inviting you to join the team was right!”
Even if you trust me so much, even if you mention Mira, I…
”No.” Rod found that he was almost fooled by Natsu, “Don’t build this strange trust with me! I’m not here to help you clean up the mess!”
Happi looked at the burning straw and asked: “What should we do here?”
”Run away quickly while no one notices.”
”Tell Natsu to eat the fire.”
Natsu and Rod spoke at the same time, then looked at each other in shock at the same time, and said at the same time: “Will you eat your own wild monsters?”
”You actually want to run away?”
The two were even more shocked: “Of course you have to run away after getting into trouble! ”
”It’s not that we can’t try.”
After hearing each other’s answer, the two said in unison this time: “You actually said this kind of thing so confidently!”
Seeing that the two of them went from saying it in unison to saying it in unison, Habby wanted to say “there is a relationship”.
…
After a lot of explanations.
Rod suddenly realized: “Oh~ So Natsu can’t eat the fire he sprayed or lit, he can only eat other people’s fire.”
Natsu asked again: “So your wild monsters are really edible?”
Rod said: “I don’t know, I just think that if I’m really hungry, I should borrow a claw from the Swift Crab to chew it, right? Anyway, the claws can regenerate.”
Natsu and Habby stopped drooling: “How cruel.”
The Rift Sprinter returned to the Summoner’s Rift.
”I’m kidding. ”
While he was talking, the fire in the small area within the firebreak had begun to shrink.
Wheat straw is hollow and not very resistant to burning. It does not generate much heat. The six wild boars lying on the ground were just blackened.
Rod asked the ancient stone beetle to split, and then dragged the six wild boars out.
Then he asked the wild monsters to dig the soil on the spot, fill the flames, and bury the ashes.
”Three-dimensional text WATER.”
Rod waved his hand, and about a basin of clean water was poured out, soaking the still warm land.
He repeated it several times to completely lower the temperature to avoid causing new fires.
After doing all this, Rod slapped his right hand a few times. He had just said that he was not here to do the aftermath work, but he still dealt with the hidden dangers left by Natsu.
He sighed: “Let’s go, drag all the wild boars to the village.”
”Ah? Why? ”
”We have to give an explanation for burning someone’s wheat field. We haven’t officially handed over the work to the client yet.” Rhode was worried that there would be trouble.
”It’s so troublesome.” Natsu complained. When he was in this situation, he would go directly to the client to make things clear.
As long as the task was completed, few people would care about this process problem.
”Who caused the trouble!”
If the stone beetle had not been sent over just now, Rhode didn’t dare to think about what would happen to the wheat field that stretched for countless acres.
Don’t be angry, don’t be angry, Rhode is not angry at all, it’s all for the rent.
But when I think about the fact that it will take a lot of such battles to completely solve the beast group problem…
Rhode has a toothache.
Is it best to let Gray and Natsu team up? (End of this chapter)
