Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309: Chapter 306: Stealing Gems

’That’s two ferocious beasts in a row with Spiritual Skills. If I couldn’t figure it out by now, I’d have to be an idiot.’

She then asked, ’System, can you help me restore my spiritual power? It feels like the monster severed my connection to it.’

System: ’The items I have don’t have that kind of effect.’

Bai Su was about to say something else when the cocoon suddenly shook violently. From outside, she heard Lu Tingyan’s shout of alarm, "Watch out!"

A figure moved to block the space in front of her, followed by a muffled grunt.

Bai Su smelled the scent of blood coming from Lu Tingyan.

"Lu Tingyan! Are you alright?"

She was growing anxious.

There was no sound from outside.

Bai Su struggled, trying to tear open the cocoon, but the cocoon suddenly started to move on its own.

A person was squeezed in.

It was Lu Tingyan, blood flowing from his chest.

Their eyes met, and both of them froze in astonishment.

’The monster actually put both of us in the same cocoon?’

’What on earth is it thinking?’

While Bai Su was still stunned, she suddenly heard the monster’s voice again.

"Heh heh, so fluffy. How adorable!"

Bai Su: "..."

’After all this, it turns out the monster has a thing for fluff?’

Lu Tingyan had obviously heard it too; the corner of his mouth twitched almost imperceptibly.

Bai Su looked at his wound. "How are you?"

Lu Tingyan shook his head. "I’m fine."

But blood kept streaming from his shoulder, staining a large patch of the white cocoon red.

Seeing this, Bai Su quickly redeemed some medical supplies from the System Mall to treat his wound.

The sounds of fighting outside continued.

Lu Tingyan frowned. "This monster doesn’t seem very smart. If we can find its weakness and outsmart it, we still have a chance."

Bai Su said, "Unfortunately, my spiritual power is sealed right now. I can’t help with healing."

Lu Tingyan replied, "Mine is sealed too. It seems to be related to this cocoon."

Bai Su asked, "So, the people outside... their spiritual power isn’t sealed?"

Lu Tingyan nodded.

When he was outside just now, his spiritual power indeed hadn’t been sealed.

But this monster could spit a strange silk that not even Yelias’s spider silk could withstand.

Moreover, they couldn’t sense the monster’s presence at all and could only take its attacks passively.

Just a moment ago, he had sensed a faint presence and unleashed Tearing Space, but the monster had cleverly used Bai Su as a shield.

He’d had no choice but to use Instant Teleportation to get in front of the cocoon, and even then he barely managed to take the hit.

Bai Su tended to Lu Tingyan’s wound, her head lowered in thought.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "I have an idea. It’s worth a try!"

Lu Tingyan asked, "What idea?"

Bai Su said, "I’ve seen its true form. It should be a Fei Mo."

"Generally, Fei Mo are very fond of shiny things. We can try using that to lure it out, then go for a one-hit kill."

She still had a dagger that was guaranteed to hit its mark. If she could just lure it close enough, she was confident she could wound it severely.

Even if it didn’t die, it would be gravely wounded.

Lu Tingyan said, "If the opponent is a Fei Mo, it’s indeed worth a try."

Bai Su insisted, "It’s sure to work. It just said its lair has lots of glowing jewels, which proves it must be attracted to shiny things."

Lu Tingyan caught the key words in her sentence. "What did you just say? Its lair has many glowing jewels?"

Bai Su said, "That’s right."

Suddenly, she also realized something. She looked up and met Lu Tingyan’s gaze. "You mean..."

The two exchanged a look, a tacit understanding passing between them.
