The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast-Chapter 455 - 418: The Lost Item, the Real Challenge

Chapter 455: Chapter 418: The Lost Item, the Real Challenge

Screech——!

With a prolonged bird cry, the Thunderbolt Gale Eagle swiftly descended and soon hovered in front of the cliff. Everyone’s eyes lit up because there stood a giant bird nest exactly as Lin Guang had described.

Before everyone could take a closer look, a dark silhouette flew out from the nest and stopped in front of them.

It was a giant raven with a wingspan of over ten meters. Its feathers weren’t purely jet-black, but shone with a slick metallic sheen under the sunlight. Its beak was robust and sharp, with obsidian-like eyes full of brilliance.

"Caw! Caw!"

Seeing the massive Thunderbolt Gale Eagle, it seemed a bit panicked, yet showed no sign of retreat, and instead began to nervously assert dominance, with the feathers on its head standing on end.

[Species: Thieving Crow]

[Potential: Blue Elite]

[Level: 54]

[Skills: ...]

[Trait: Treasure Hunting]

[Treasure Hunting: Likes to collect shiny, rare items, with a certain chance of stealing items from opponents during battles.]

Lin Guang’s eyes narrowed—Treasure Hunting trait!

Without hesitation, he raised his hand the next moment: "Sorry, you’ll be compensated."

"Lisa!"

He clasped his hands together in front of his chest instantly, with dark golden flames burning fiercely in his eyes.

Thump thump!

Feeling the power flowing into her body through the Equal Contract, and hearing Lin Guang’s somewhat ascended tone, Lisa’s eyes widened slightly.

This level of enhancement... was he serious?

He seemed a bit excited?

Could it be—

Her golden-green eyes trembled, golden particles flowed between her outstretched fingers, and upon a powerful grip, a bronze magic staff stood before her.

[Strong Spirit Thought]activated!

Feeling the terrifying aura exuding from the girl’s body, the enraged Thieving Crow showed a trace of human-like fear in its eyes, flapping its wings frantically but unable to escape Lisa’s spiritual power lock. The light cannon-like telekinesis drew a pale pink arc in the air and blasted onto its body.

"Eee~~~!"

The Thieving Crow was gently tossed away by a big hand, turned into a reverse shooting star, and disappeared from everyone’s view in the blink of an eye.

The skill did not hit it directly, so when the potential energy dissipated, it wouldn’t get hurt and could fly back normally.

Somehow, Lin Guang seemed to hear the voice of some comical trio fleetingly by his ear.

What an annoying feeling—

"Whew..." The girl exhaled a long breath, the magic staff dissipated into golden particles in the air, and she looked at Lin Guang.

Lin Guang reached out to Lisa, and glanced at the other two girls on the eagle’s back: "The two of us will go down and take a look."

Vishdair lifted his chin: "Go ahead, go ahead."

Chelina also nodded: "Be careful."

Lisa looked at Lin Guang’s extended right hand and then at his somewhat expectant expression on his face. Her golden-green eyes showed a mix of excitement and timidity.

She knew that this should be the final stop in their search.

Logically, she shouldn’t hold onto expectations because no matter how much rationality and probability theory are used to predict, finding the target is only a small probability event.

But... Lin Guang’s expression made her begin to fantasize about that unrealistic reality.

Will the answer really be in this nest?

In the next moment, she took the initiative to hold Lin Guang’s hand.

Under the guidance and cushioning of pink spiritual power, they both descended into the Thieving Crow’s nest.

The interior of the nest was nearly a hundred square meters, built with sturdy branches and some shining metal fragments, filled with sparkling and bizarre wonders, all laid bare under the observation of the second-level Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence.

The location of this Thieving Crow’s nest was quite cunning, undisturbed by other powerful Spirit Beasts, thus its wealth was considerable.

At a glance, many minerals and gemstone-like spiritual materials were piled at the most conspicuous spot in the nest, seemingly its usual sleeping place, showcasing its affection for these treasures.

These faintly glowing gemstones and minerals aggregated together, emitting considerable ethereal fluctuations, almost by accident forming a crude Spirit Rune Array capable of gathering surrounding ether.

——Living in such a place day in and day out indeed provides a great boost to one’s strength.

But these spiritual materials and minerals, due to their scant quantity, it’s apparent at a glance that their target isn’t among them.

And beside them, a heap of items that were strange and valueless to Spirit Beasts, like colorful pebbles, shimmering glass pearls, branches in the shape of a Holy Sword, and strange tiger-like stones, many products of modern civilization, even a scrappy green off-road vehicle with some traces of battle, probably left by some unfortunate Spirit Master.

Within this pile of things, their target was perhaps more likely to be hidden.

Rustle...

Lisa, unlike Lin Guang, didn’t have the convenience of the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence, so she could only shape [Strong Spirit Thought] into a large hand, picking up items one by one within the nest, dusting them off, and placing them aside.

Her actions were quite swift, with the heap of collections decreasing at a visibly noticeable speed.

Then.

When a certain two items revealed their true appearance from that pile...

Lin Guang and Lisa’s bodies trembled at the same time.

In an instant, the big hand formed by the Strong Spirit Thought disappeared in place.

"..."

Lisa, holding Lin Guang’s hand, came to that corner, squatted down, and personally brushed off the dust on the two items.

One was a suitcase that could still be identified as having been pink, though now most of the shell had fallen off. The remaining parts, covered with sequins and stickers, were worn down to the point of being almost unrecognizable. However, the inner lining still firmly held the items inside, preventing them from spilling out.
