The soft soil squirmed as a massive centipede burrowed rapidly, evading the pursuit of the King's Cub.
Yet even so, its carapace was scorched black, emitting a burnt stench.
That was the terrifying Crown Flame, which had blanketed the surface with firepower. Fortunately, the Red Wind Centipede, being a commander-level Pet Beast, dove deep enough to escape this calamity.

Xiong Xiao's face was grim. His entire facial skin was damaged, revealing muscle tissue beneath the cracked seams. He then spat out a mouthful of black blood, mixed with all sorts of writhing poisonous insects.
How did the King's Cub appear at Experiment Site No. 7? This is too strange. I have to report it to the superior.
He stroked his face and peeled it off, revealing an odd face, a combination of ape and mammoth, with octopus tentacles floating off his face.
He indeed was Xiong Xiao.
