Winston wrinkled his nose and didn’t reply. Suddenly, something struck him, making him sprint maniacally towards Flame City.

“Tiger king?” Alva hurriedly caught up. As he ran, he transformed into his beast form and flapped his wings to take flight.

Gah gah—

Winston was still crawling on a sand dune when the peacock overtook him with a simple lurch forward. He looked up and transformed into a human once more.

“We don’t have time. Let’s go to Flame City directly. That should be where Carl is heading. We can only intercept him at the city entrance,” said Winston.

Alva nodded vigorously. He was about to take flight when his claws tightened, and the entire bird was pulled down.

Gah—

An agonizing cry rang out in the desert, mixed among the frantic flapping of wings.

Winston flipped around and rode on the peacock’s back. In his deep voice, he said, “Sorry, but you’re faster. I’ll give you the directions.”

Alva was speechless. Although he did once mention he could carry the weight of two males, that was just an analogy! He had never really carried males on his back before!

Forget it, the important matter at hand was to find Molly.

This was definitely his most humiliating experience. He decided he must make Molly pay him back in the future.

…

Darkness occupied one’s entire vision.

An intense earthy smell filled the air. Clearly, something had just been dug out, and the smell had yet to dissipate.

Biting her fingernails, Bai Qingqing felt remorseful. Why hadn’t she come with a wooden rod encased with luminous balls? It was so dark in there. It felt like she had gone blind.

Having not heard any movement outside for a good while, Bai Qingqing felt her way to the entrance of the hole and asked softly, “Curtis? Are you done?”

Still nothing.
