Chapter 377: Chaos in the Bandit camp (1/2)
Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce
Before leaving Boss Nuwyuse's tent, Leo obviously didn't forget to clean up the mess that he had made.
He quickly ordered his Earth Elementals to dig a big hole enough for a person to fit inside below the tent. Once it was done, he put Boss Nuwyuse's body inside before covering it with stone and then covered the stone's surface with dirt to make it looked like natural.
Afterward, he gathered together the dirt that was dyed red by blood and ordered the Earth Elementals to dig another hole to bury it inside. He repeated the same step with the first hole and finally, there was no longer any evidence left of a crime that had just happened inside the tent.
Only when everything was finished did Leo finally walked away to leave the tent.
Before walking outside the tent, though, Leo first sent out the Wind Elementals to scout around for any nearby Bandits. As soon as he confirmed that there were no Bandits nearby, he then quickly got out before starting to walk towards the direction of the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's nest.
Although Boss Nuwyuse's body was hidden somewhere hard to suspect, it would still not take that long for this camp to find his sudden disappearance suspicious.
After all, Boss Nuwyuse's position in this Bandit camp wasn't just any Tom, Dick, and Harry. He was the backbone, the pillar, and the brain of this Bandit camp, so he would certainly not just disappear out of nowhere.
No one would even assume that Boss Nuwyuse had suddenly gone greedy and escaped with the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs, even if they include that the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's eggs are the cause, because just like any organizations in the Celestial World, Mages that choose to join Bandit groups would swear an Oath not to betray the Bandit group as long as they were still members of the Bandit group.
In the first place, swearing on an Oath was the very basic requirement needed for every Mage to join any organization.
Therefore, Boss Nuwyuse, who is one of the Bosses of their large Bandit group, would definitely not betray them, or even if he does, he wouldn't dare do it due to the Oath.
Because of that reason, every minute right now basically counts. A time wasted means less Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs Leo could store inside the Storage Rings.
He needs to think quick, act fast, and make haste!
Soon, Leo finally arrived nearby the entrance of the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's nest. Before entering, he again made his Wind Elementals scout around for any nearby Bandits.
”1... 3... 6... 12... 24...”
Unlike before, right now there were a total of 24 Bandits nearby the entrance of the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's nest, hindering him from going inside.
If he wants to successfully achieve his goal, then he would need to first get past those 24 Bandits without raising any suspicion, then escape without again raising any suspicion. Of course, the latter part would be the hardest, because aside from escaping without raising any suspicion, he also needs to leave before this Bandit camp starts searching for Boss Nuwyuse.
In fact, considering that Boss Nuwyuse has just been investigating the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's egg a while ago when Yosles and Irilebant left him, the moment that someone found out and reported that he's not inside his tent, the first place they would immediately go would one hundred percent be the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's nest as they would assume that maybe he's over there looking for more suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's eggs.
That's why, right this moment, Leo is in a dilemma thinking of what he should do to get in and out of the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's nest before any of those could happen.
While Leo was thinking about that problem though, out of nowhere, the place suddenly turned even darker. At first, he thought that maybe a cloud has covered the moon, but as soon as he looked up, he then discovered that it was actually a shadow of something big above the Bandit camp that's making the place darker.
A big shadow looms over almost the entire Bandit camp, circling around while slowly causing the clouds to gather together, and soon after thunder began sounding up the sky.
ROAAAAAAR!
It was a Golden Thunderstorm Python!
The Golden Thunderstorm Python that appeared above the heads of everyone was around 100 meters long with a really thick and big body. It has a diamond-shaped head, golden colored eyes, and its scales were bright-yellow in color on the top and entirely black-colored in its bottom. Thunder surrounds its entire body, which occasionally shoots towards the ground.
Observing closely, the Golden Thunderstorm Python's cultivation was shockingly at the 8 Star level, implying that this Magical Beast doesn't belong anywhere around the Silver Kingdom territory.
In the Silver Kingdom, even a 7 Star Magical Beast would immediately be eliminated, not to mention an 8 Star Magical Beast with a high potential to become 9 Star and a low possibility of becoming a Beast Lord.
At this moment, seeing the sight of the Golden Thunderstorm Python, Leo quickly understood the reason why.
Just like back then at the Floating Mountain, the Golden Thunderstorm Python was the partner of the Yellow Skinned Anaconda, hence all of these Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs belong to it as well. No, at most it would claim the Golden Thunderstorm Python's eggs as the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs were useless in its eyes. Because of that reason, it's obvious that it will come looking for the eggs once it detects them.
What Leo had thought was actually the truth behind why the Golden Thunderstorm Python has appeared right this moment.
