Chapter 369 The Black Fog World (1/2)

There were eight Excellent-grade Labyrinth Watchers with rapid healing abilities. Gao Peng observed them secretly while slowly moving backward with his familiars.

One of the Labyrinth Watchers stood out, as it was much bigger than the others. That Watcher was a level higher than the rest, which were all at Level 50. It had already achieved the peak as a Lord-tier monster. It was also one grade higher than the rest, at the Perfect grade.

Roar… Roar… Roar, Gao Peng could only hear a series of roaring sounds, but he failed to understand any of the words.

Dumby listened for a while and then translated to him, ”Master, they're trying to tell us that they mean us no harm. They're here to ask for our help.”

After learning the purpose of these Labyrinth Watchers, Gao Peng set his worries aside because they didn't have any malicious intent.

They just need our help? Gao Peng didn't say a word as he was thinking deeply.

A few of the Labyrinth Watchers looked at each other, then turned their heads and said to Dumby, ”Please follow us.”

After hearing Dumby's translation, Gao Peng shook his head and asked him to tell them, ”We can't just follow you like that. This is your territory, after all, therefore, I don't trust you all.”

The Labyrinth Watchers looked at each other again, not knowing what to say.

A few moments of silence later, one of the Labyrinth Watchers became offended. He took a step forward and shouted while staring at Gao Peng.

The fire in Dumby's eyes was still. He raised his head and looked the Labyrinth Watcher right in the eyes, then he took out his tail from his back and said nothing.

Goldie rubbed its head as a sign of irritation and spit onto the ground. Ptooey!

I, Goldie shall not be insulted like this! Don't you dare yell at my people!

The rest of Gao Peng's familiars started causing an uproar among themselves. They made guttural noises of warning from their throats.

The leader of the Perfect-grade Labyrinth Watchers suddenly turned his head around and smacked the offended Watcher in the face after he yelled at them. The heavy smack left the Watcher spinning on the ground. It staggered and thudded its bum onto the ground. The Watcher looked at his leader in confusion, perhaps wondering why it had done that all so suddenly.

Roar! The leader rumbled deeply, giving him the warning to shut up.

He turned his head around again and took a glance at Gao Peng. He growled and said, ”We truly mean no harm to you. I just hope that all of you could help our master.”

Gao Peng was still alert, for he was still wondering whether these guys would offer them as a sacrifice without them knowing.

”All right. Please give me some time to prepare, and I will get back to you when I'm ready.”

The Labyrinth Watchers looked at Gao Peng without saying anything for around half a minute. The leader of the Watchers finally nodded.

”Fine, human. I hope you aren't trying to trick us.”

”Why would I trick you? You're welcome to come and ask around in the human world. You would find that I'm an honest and reliable man.” Gao Peng smiled.

”Honest and reliable man? Then you must be a man of your word from the human world who would do a lot better than all those swindlers.” The Labyrinth Watcher nodded in a serious way.

With Dumby's help, the leader's words were translated.

Gao Peng smiled with modesty.

”Oh, yeah. Did you raise all the monsters here?” asked Gao Peng while pointing at the Black Gecko on the wall.

The Labyrinth Watcher glimpsed at the Black Gecko and nodded. ”Yes, they're our source of food in the labyrinth.”

”Could you give us some of the Black Geckoes to raise? We could supply a lot of food for you.” Gao Peng became more aggressive once he noticed that the Watchers weren't as hard to deal with as he had imagined.
