Chapter 458: She Found A Baby Tiger

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Qiao was going to leave, but when she came out of her space, she heard the sound of a baby tiger. She turned to where the sound was from, and saw a tiny tiger rushing at her while howling.

The tiger looked only a few months old, fluffy, and with a round head and a pair of tiny ears. Its pair of eyes showed anxiety, panic, and helplessness. It quickly moved its four little legs and ran past Lin Qiao from the edge of the woods.

A weak tiger roar was heard from deep inside the woods. Perhaps, it was some other tiger responding to the baby tiger.

Roar!

Lin Qiao turned to the woods with surprise.

Why was a tiger in there? That area had been occupied by those rats, hadn’t it? That adult tiger which made that roar sounded weak.

“Awooo…” Hearing the adult tiger’s voice, the baby tiger roared eagerly and ran faster toward that area.

Lin Qiao was aware that it would be swallowed by the boa or the crocodile if it ran into the woods just like that. Those rats were also dangerous to the baby tiger. After all, they seemed to fear nothing but that boa.

She wanted to turn and leave. However, knowing that the little thing would soon be eaten like a snack, she could not bear to leave. She thought for a moment, then decided to follow behind the baby tiger and see what exactly was happening in the woods.

That adult tiger sounded to be in a bad condition. Otherwise, its voice wouldn’t be so weak.

The baby tiger moved fast. It nimbly darted into the grass and ran to the other side of the woods, where the boa and the crocodile had already entered.

Lin Qiao spent a moment thinking. The adult tiger’s roar was heard from the woods as well… Was there another battle happening in the woods? But weirdly, no other noises were coming out of the woods. If there was a fight, there should be voices.

She followed behind the baby tiger. Seeing it run forward boldly, she couldn’t help but worry about it.

‘Little guy, do you know where you’re running to?’

“Awoooooo…” The baby tiger rushed toward the woods while howling.

“Roar…” The adult tiger gave another roar.

Lin Qiao followed the baby tiger and ran for twenty minutes and found that the woods were seriously huge. She and the baby tiger had run for such a long while, yet no edge of the woods was seen.

Gradually, they were close to the group of rats again.

It was also a weird thing that those rats had retreated to such a long distance away after taking fright from the boa.

Lin Qiao hopped onto a tree, looking ahead and sensing the scents in the woods. The scent of rats has faded a little, so the other scents could be smelled.

Apart from the boa and the crocodile, Lin Qiao also detected the scent that shared the origin with the baby tiger… Actually, she sensed two of that kind of scent.

At first, she thought there was only one adult tiger in the woods. But then, as she sensed the tiger’s scent more carefully, she realized that she was wrong. There were two different tiger scents mixing together.

What was going on?

Based on the little tiger’s anxious look, she easily guessed that the two tigers in the woods were its parents. What were the two adult tigers doing in the middle of the woods, and why did they leave their cub out here alone?

The baby tiger rushed into the woods and saw the giant group of rats before stopping. Meanwhile, those rats spotted it as well. They all turned to it and gazed at it with green, beady eyes.

The little tiger wasn’t silly. Under the gazes of thousands of rats, it turned and ran as quickly as possible.

Squeak! Those rats chased behind it like a flood.

“Roar!” The baby tiger was so scared, so it couldn’t stop screaming while fleeing.

Lin Qiao looked at it and laughed, “You were rushing inside fearlessly just now! Why are you suddenly afraid?”

Anyway, she knew why. This place was filled with the rat scent. How could the little tiger possibly not sense it?

Being chased by those rats, the baby tiger fled from left to right. It was tiny, but it ran fast like it was flying. Lin Qiao had found that it was really fast when she followed it in.

But now, as it was chased by a huge group of rats, it was even twice as fast as before.

That rat group was enormous, but none of those rats managed to catch up with the little tiger. Lin Qiao observed the tiger for a while and found that it was rather smart. As long as it didn’t run into the boa or the crocodile, it would be fine.

Lin Qiao was more curiously about the situation of the two adult tigers. So, she leaped up and moved deeper into the woods by stepping upon treetops.

Soon, she found the source of the tiger scent.

The area that was hundreds of meters in diameter was crowded with giant rats. Those rats climbed onto each other and formed tall piles. The trees in this area were occupied by rats as well, even making them rustle.

Squeak! Squeak! The endless shrill squeals even gave Lin Qiao a headache.

She kicked away some rats on a tree and made a space for herself.

The rats which were kicked off the tree by her were so confused. They didn’t know why they were suddenly kicked off, because they saw nothing when they looked up.

The rats around Lin Qiao were startled as well. As they looked at that empty spot and saw nothing either.

Then, those rats immediately attempted to seize the empty area which Lin Qiao was standing in, but next, a stream of black mist was released from that place.

Rats had always had sharp senses for danger, so they stopped moving at the sight of the dark mist. A few of them didn’t manage to step back, and as a result, they touched the mist and vanished while screeching.

After that, all the rats moved away from that area.

Lin Qiao stood there and looked at the front, only to find a huge pile of rats before her. That was like a hill made from countless rats. She couldn’t tell why those rats were all piled together.

But soon, Lin Qiao figured it out. They did that because something was inside the pile.

She didn’t know what was inside, but she did see some rats fall off from the top, and then some other rats climb up there.

She managed to see a little of that thing inside the rat pile. That was something white, like a large ice block.

She didn’t approach there, but stayed where she was and carefully observed those rats.

She was about twenty meters away from that rat pile, but her great eyesight allowed to see everything clearly through the distance.

She looked around, wondering why didn’t she see the boa and the crocodile. Earlier on, she sensed their scents and found them moving this way. But now, they seemed to have taken another direction.

“Aw-aw-aw!” The baby tiger was growling outside. It couldn’t stop running, because it was tailed by a giant group of rats; it couldn’t get further into the woods either, so it got anxious again.

“Roar…” At that moment, a roar of an adult tiger was suddenly heard from under that rat pile.

Lin Qiao paused for a second, then stared at the rat pile with surprise.

‘Are those tigers down there?’

She looked at that grave-sized rat pile and figured out that underneath those rats were actually tigers.

“Awoo!” Hearing the adult tiger’s sound, the baby tiger immediately responded.

Lin Qiao couldn’t understand what they were trying to say to each other, as she only understood zombie roars.
