Chapter 370: 210 Break Out of the Encirclement (Second Update)

Although the giant bird of prey had already left, the brief glimpse of it had left an indelible, shocking impression on everyone.

Such a terrifying creature, when unseen, is beyond imagination in its horror, and just one encounter is enough to instill a deep-seated fear in people’s hearts.

Fang Yuxin, with memories of her previous life, understood the terror of birds more clearly than the others. She felt the appearance of the bird of prey was like a signal of impending danger, for since its appearance, she had felt uneasy.

This unease came abruptly and powerfully, making it impossible for Fang Yuxin to ignore. Since nobody was nearby, she hesitated for a moment before deciding to stay and rest temporarily, and prepare before continuing on her way.

Bai Ye noticed her uneasy expression and couldn’t help but ask worriedly, "Miss Fang, what’s wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuxin glanced at him and after a moment said, "Please don’t call me Miss Fang anymore. Since we are companions, there’s no need to be so formal."

Bai Ye’s heart trembled quickly with anticipation as he asked, "Then what should I call you?" He thought "Xinxin" was a nice nickname but felt it might be too forward to ask directly, so he chose a more tactful way of asking.

Fang Yuxin, preoccupied with thoughts about the bird, didn’t notice the eagerness in Bai Ye’s tone and appeared quite indifferent, "From now on, just call me Yuxin." Calling her by her full name seemed too formal and distant, whereas calling her "Xinxin" was too intimate. After some thought, she chose a middle ground.

Bai Ye felt disappointed inside but showed little on his face, his mouth corners just slightly turned down, hardly noticeable unless looked at closely.

He realized Fang Yuxin was very concerned about the bird of prey and commented, "The one that just flew past must have been a large eagle, but unfortunately, it was too far away to make out its species. However, given its massive size, it must have mutated. Eagles are fierce birds naturally, and if mutated, they’re likely even more dangerous. If it attacks humans, with its speed and flying advantage, ordinary people would stand no chance."

Indeed, sighed Fang Yuxin, worried exactly about that.

Bai Ye discreetly observed her expression and continued, "It seems we’ll have to be extra cautious. There’s definitely more than one mutant bird, and if we encounter a group of mutant birds or zombie birds, it could be dangerous."

After he finished, he realized Fang Yuxin wasn’t listening but was instead turning to look at Fang Yuyang. At that moment, Fang Yuyang was still maintaining a posture of looking up, watching in the direction where the bird of prey had disappeared.

Bai Ye thought he must be very concerned about the bird of prey, but since it had already left, such staring seemed pointless. He only dared to think this to himself and certainly couldn’t say it aloud. After all, Fang Yuyang was Fang Yuxin’s brother, and he didn’t want to offend Fang Yuxin by speaking thoughtlessly.

Fang Yuxin had no such reservations and directly asked, "Brother, what’s wrong? What are you looking at?"

Fang Yuyang then came back to his senses, looked at Fang Yuxin, and said, "Xinxin, did you feel that the eagle was very formidable?"

Fang Yuxin immediately understood the implication of Fang Yuyang’s words. Just as Bai Ye said, the bird of prey must have been a mutant eagle, but too far to clearly see its species. Judging by its size and speed, the mutant eagle was indeed a formidable bird of prey and particularly suitable for Fang Yuyang with his Wind Element.

If Fang Yuyang could successfully bond with it, it could become a fierce and competent combat companion!

Thinking of Fang Yuyang, Fang Yuxin’s tense nerves suddenly relaxed. How could she have forgotten, Fang Yuyang’s Awakening was the Wind Superpower, making him a natural nemesis to those birds that fly with the help of wind!

In her previous life, she had been a burden to Fang Yuyang, but this life would be different!

With this thought, Fang Yuxin’s previously heavy mood lightened instantly. However, despite Fang Yuyang’s powerful Wind Superpower, some necessary preparations still had to be made.

Just then, Chen Si and others were still digging for the Crystal Core, giving her ample time to prepare. Fang Yuxin began channeling her True Qi to her fingertips, starting to inscribe a Defensive Array on the vehicle.

Seeing her actions, Bai Ye’s eyes slightly narrowed. After a moment’s thought and feeling he should excuse himself, he said, "I’ll go deal with those zombies."
