Chapter 248 - Who Plays with Children Like This? (1/2)

Parker took a look at the baby snakes and then bellowed at them. “Roar!”

The pressure from a mature beastman suppressed the baby snakes, and they came to a stop as if the pause button had been pressed. The eggshells that they had been fighting over were practically crushed into snowflakes. Only half an eggshell was sent flying out, creaking as it swayed on the ground.

The baby snake that was the closest to the half eggshell threw a glance at Parker, then his longer and slender body twisted toward the eggshell before coming to a stop. Seeing that Parker didn’t make any move, he quickly dashed toward the eggshell and curled his body inside, leaving half a tail exposed outside as he wore a contented expression.

Bai Qingqing’s lips twitched. Who knew how snakes could wear a “contented” expression. It must be because she had classified baby snakes as young beastmen.

After all, they were living creatures with intelligence.

“Crackle.”

The baby snake curled up in the eggshell wasn’t able to remain content for long. The eggshell that had become brittle after drying out in the shade finally couldn’t withstand his weight anymore and crumbled.

The baby snake fell onto the ground, curling up his neck and looked toward the ground in a daze.

“Ssss—”

The other baby snakes who had been suppressed earlier exploded as if a drop of water had splattered into a pot of hot oil. They raised their heads and charged out toward the baby snake who had crushed the last piece of eggshell, and soon tangled up in a fight again.

They had grown in the eggshells and only knew that the eggshells had been giving them warmth. To them, the eggshells were undoubtedly like a mother, and maybe even the warmest rocking bed.

Seeing their “mother” being crushed, the baby snakes’ eyes turned from a light red to a blood-red color.

“Oh my god, they’re fighting again.” Bai Qingqing wasn’t able to care about being scared and quickly walked toward the baby snakes. Of course, she was still grabbing onto Parker as her shield.

Parker took a look for a moment before saying, “They’re attacking one of the snakes. This is too dangerous.”
