Beauty and the Bodyguard

8462 Chapter 8461-

Although the dark ice spike beetle was called a bug, its body was not small. It was the size of a donkey in the secular world, but its movements were very agile, like a ghost in The World of Ice and snow.

The defense of the living dark icicle beetles was extremely strong. Their shells were strengthened by the dark and ice attributes at the same time. They were extremely hard and could be said to be invulnerable. They were the nightmares of human warriors of the same level!

He couldn’t beat him to death and couldn’t run away. He was really helpless!

By right, the dark icicle beetle’s shell had such a defensive ability and was an excellent material for making armor, but the wondrous part was this.

As mentioned earlier, a living dark icicle beetle’s defense was extremely strong, but once it died, its shell would become crunchy, even less than a normal layer of ice of the same thickness!

Because of this, Zhang Yiming and the others did not have any other gains, because other than a little bit of meat, there was really nothing else!

Then again, it was also because of this characteristic that humans were too lazy to hunt for dark ice soaring beetles. First, it was not easy to kill, and second, there was no harvest after killing them. After working hard for half a day, they could not even have a full meal. Who had the time to hunt dark ice soaring beetles?

Only Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming, who couldn’t find anything to eat, had the mentality that no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. They made up for the weight with quantity, and that was how they had so many meat strips.

For a moment, the masked woman was a little confused. She didn’t know if she should continue to go out to find people or what.

She finally regained her senses and wanted to ask Fei daqiang if they had seen her subordinates.

In the end, before she could ask, her men who had gone out to hunt had also returned under the lead of the burly man!

However, these people were all empty-handed and had not gained anything.

Not only that, everyone who went out, including the burly man in the lead, was injured without exception!

Lin Yi glanced at them-yes, they were all alive, not a single one dead. It was a good thing!

If a few of them died, it would seem a little inappropriate for them to eat the meat …

That’s right, Fei daqiang put down the small mountain on his back and began to roast meat on the fire.

The meat strips had been processed when they were dug out, so there was not a trace of blood. When they came back, they were covered in snow and frozen. Now, they only needed to roast it over the fire, and soon a rich fragrance wafted in the cave.

Lin Yi’s barbeque skills weren’t bad, but Lin Yi didn’t have to do it himself. Fei daqiang had learned some skills, and the barbeque was good enough for everyone.

This scene directly stunned the masked woman!

What was going on?

So many of her men were injured, but Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming were fine?

Could it be that Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming had robbed and injured her subordinates?

It was no wonder that the masked woman would think this way. After all, Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming had returned with a full load, while her men had returned empty-handed and were injured!

The masked woman was about to ask her subordinates about the situation, but one of the injured people shouted indignantly,””Miss, those two people were too careless. They clearly saw us being besieged by the dark ice soaring beetles, but they just stood by and watched. They only killed those dark ice soaring beetles after they saw that we were all injured …”

“It is! If they had acted earlier, why would we all be injured? They’re clearly letting us exhaust the dark icicle beetles on purpose so that they can reap the benefits in the end!”

Everyone started to ask for Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming’s help. However, Zhang xiaopang was drooling as he looked at the roasted meat on the fire. He did not seem to care.

Fei daqiang curled his lips in disdain,””It’s really funny, you guys were the ones who said we didn’t want to form a team, and you’re also the ones who blame us for not taking action earlier! You’re being attacked by the dark icicle beetles. How do we know if you’re hunting or not? If we act too early, you’ll say we stole your prey, right?”

“We saw that you were about to be wiped out, so you probably weren’t hunting for dark icicle beetles. That’s why we came to your aid and saved so many of your lives! It’s fine if you don’t thank us, but you’re saying that we’re just sitting back and reaping the benefits? This was too laughable! By the way, what kind of consumption did you guys cause to the dark ice soaring beetles?”

Fei daqiang sneered,”why didn’t your Grandpa Fei see it?”

Lin Yi could imagine that these people wouldn’t even be able to break through the dark ice soaring beetle’s defense. A few blind attacks would only tire them out!

Zhang xiaopang finally shifted his attention away from the roasted meat. He sneered,””You were the ones who rejected our good intentions and didn’t want to team up with us, and now you’re blaming us? Could it be that you feel that you’ve suffered a loss for saving your lives, and want us to split the harvest in half with you?”

Those guys really did have such thoughts, but they just didn’t say it out loud.

The leader’s expression was somewhat unsightly. He frowned and raised his hand to stop this wave of clamoring. He said in a deep voice, “I’ll be honest with you. Don’t speak nonsense that’s far-fetched and disgracing our family’s reputation!”

“This matter was indeed our fault for not recognizing Mount Tai. We rejected the other party’s good intentions and were even rescued in the end. How can you have the face to ask others to do it? One had to know that in the previous situation, they were willing to help out because of their friendship, not because of their duty! Don’t be rude!”

The burly man had a lot of prestige in this caravan, so as soon as he spoke, the people who were clamoring before immediately quieted down.

The masked woman waited for everyone to fall silent before indifferently asking the large man what had happened.

In fact, there was nothing much to say about the course of the matter. It was similar to what they had said before. The burly man mainly talked about Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming’s help.

“Miss, the dark icicle beetle’s physical defense is extremely strong. Our attacks can’t even break its defense! That’s why he was in such a sorry state, and the two people on the other side were using spiritual awareness skills!”

“They almost didn’t make a move, just used spiritual sense attack skills, and they easily took care of those dark ice spike beetles!”

The burly man emphasized the words “spiritual awareness attack skill” to make the masked woman pay attention.

His efforts weren’t in vain-the masked woman’s eyes lit up as she stood up and walked over to Lin Yi, bowing slightly.”Thank you all for lending a hand and saving my brothers! Especially these two brothers, this little girl has a presumptuous request!”

“After the blizzard stops, can I invite you all to my house as guests? Don’t worry, there won’t be any danger! This little girl can use her character to guarantee it! I wonder if anyone has any opinions?”

Fei daqiang secretly pouted and thought to himself, you didn’t even show your face and don’t even know the person. Who would believe your character?

He handed the meat to Lin Yi respectfully before turning his head and hmphed coldly,”This young lady, are you blind? Don’t you understand who’s in charge here? Go ask our boss if you have any questions!”
