Chapter 107: Greeted by an Unearthly Fragrance (1/2)
Translator: Soldier
There were flowers, pools and also a small pavilion.
Apparently, somebody built this secluded place.
Among everything in this valley, the giant, ancient tree in the middlemost position of the valley was the most intrusive. Its trunk was so thick that even ten people opening their arms hand in hand wouldn't be able to encircle it.
The source of that fragrance was the fruits on that gigantic tree, which were colorful, of strange shapes and giving off a special fragrance.
That fragrance was really tempting, especially for Yun Wu, who had been starving for a long time. She swallowed hard and could barely subdue her urge to rush over, pick a couple of those fruits and gobble them down.
But she had just raised her foot when she saw a magic beast on the other side of the valley out of the corner of her eye.
It had a tiger's head and a condor's body, which looked familiar to Yun Wu. Wasn't it a Tiger Condor a specimen of which she had once seen in the Magic Beasts Forest in the north?
Why was a Tiger Condor here? And it seemed as if that Tiger Condor had died not long before.
”Mom. Savory.”
Yun Wu was contemplating with a frown on her face when a babyish voice came from that gigantic tree.
She flicked a careful look at the tree and saw that fatty Reek sitting on a branch amid dense foliage was gnawing away at a red fruit in its hands, its little legs dangling.
Yun Wu cast a resigned glimpse at it.
But she didn't walk up to the tree but turned and headed for that Tiger Condor.
Though her strength had been fully restored after that sleep she had had in the bottomless pit, and she had no uncomfortable feelings, she still had to drink beast blood whenever she had the chance, just in case, since her body hadn't revived yet.
This Tiger Condor was in middle stage of Tier V. There were no wounds caused by fight in its body, except for two tiny, almost undetectable tooth marks in its neck.
Who else could have done this apart from that little guy?
