Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 188 Kill! (7538 words)

Sparkling Swamp.

This is a rich, abundant, and vibrant region.

Unlike the dense jungles of the Broken Soul Mountains, there aren't many towering trees here, but there are many mushroom-shaped trees.

Those mushroom-shaped trees are not very tall, most of them are only seven or eight meters tall, and a few reach twelve or thirteen meters. Their leaves are very hard, like rocks.

Like other native plants, the strange mushroom tree emits a peculiar phosphorescence.

Being here feels like stepping into a fairy tale world.

Here, there are fewer jagged rocks, but more tranquil ponds and streams.

Chen Fan crossed small ponds and traversed the wetlands quickly.

Monsters often appear around.

However, Chen Fan can now see the monster's attribute panel after moving more than 100 meters away, so he can avoid it immediately.

A little further ahead lies the Dust and Mist Canyon...

Chen Fan glanced at the system panel.

The system panel shows 210W of system power remaining.

Along the way, Chen Fan was somewhat hesitant about how to use these system energies.

This portion of system energy is insufficient to activate the first strike of the Nine Heavenly Severing Blades, nor is it sufficient to activate the Void God Body and the Whisper of the Demon King.

Using the "Copy 2" skill, you can copy the Beastmaster's skills to yourself, and now you can copy two skills.

Miscalculation...

The skills that Chen Fan most wanted to replicate were actually Old Ape's "Shadow Curtain" and "Ghost Step".

However, in order to take care of Chu Xuan and the others, Chen Fan sent the old ape and Xiao Qing back.

Which skill should I copy now?

Xiao Bai's Thunder Blade is currently not cost-effective, because Chen Fan's Nine Heavenly Blades combined with this high-grade Xuan weapon already provides sufficient attack power.

Xiao Bai's Lightning Chain is a skill suitable for group attacks, and is suitable for dealing with a large number of enemies whose cultivation level is similar to or lower than his own, but it is difficult to threaten enemies who are stronger than him.

Xiao Bai's Thunder Dragon has a very strong attack, but the charging time is about the same as that of the Nine Heavens Severing Blades. If you have this time to charge, you can use the Nine Heavens Severing Blades just the same.

Gangzi's bloodlust is quite powerful, directly increasing strength by 30% for 30 seconds, which is suitable for Chen Fan's current situation... where he dares not summon Gangzi.

Emerald's Wind Wings and Wind Binding are also quite good; one can be used to escape, and the other is a control skill.

Chen Fan felt a little irritated...

I had been waiting for the system energy to increase before I could unleash the first strike of the Nine Heavenly Severing Blades.

As a result, the energy increased significantly, but it was still not enough, so it could only be used to break through to the fourth rank.

Now things are in a bit of an awkward stalemate.

Chen Fan slowed down, narrowed his eyes slightly, and copied the two skills of the Beast Taming Space Jade.

"Wings of the Wind!"

"Wind Binding Technique!"

As soon as the skill was copied, Chen Fan felt a slight dizziness.

The last time I copied "Thunder Flash", I was being chased and didn't have time to experience it properly.

Now that he had copied these two skills, Chen Fan felt that his mind had suddenly become much richer.

These two skills seemed not to be Jade's skills at all, but rather skills that Chen Fan had used millions of times.

Chen Fan only needs to circulate his star power and think for a moment to activate these two skills.

The system's "Copy 2" skill is absolutely terrifying...

If you copy some powerful beast-taming skills, why would you need to cultivate any martial arts techniques?

After copying these skills, he no longer needed to forcibly borrow some of Xiaobai and Fei Cui's skills in battle.

Borrowing skills, after all, has significant limitations.

On the one hand, the usage time is only a few minutes;

On the other hand, once borrowed, the beast tamer will be unable to use the skill for a short period of time.

Now that it's been copied in this way, Chen Fan can use various skills with his Beast Tamer at the same time without any conflict.

Even Chen Fan wanted to call himself a "cheater".

at this time……

A vast canyon shrouded in mist came into Chen Fan's view.

At the mouth of the canyon, a group of fiery lions were taking a stroll.

Chen Fan dodged behind a mushroom tree and waited until the group of fiery lions left before quickly rushing inward along the right side of the canyon wall.

After walking more than forty miles into the canyon, faint human voices suddenly appeared ahead.

The fourth-rank realm possesses the ability to hear ants fighting, discern locations by the sound of the wind, and has extremely powerful perception.

Chen Fan's current mental strength has reached 465 Hz, far exceeding that of an ordinary fourth-grade cultivator!

Even from a distance, the commotion reached Chen Fan's ears.

Chen Fan looked up and saw a path sloping upwards on the mountain wall above him.

With a slight shift in his expression, Chen Fan bent his knees slightly, sprang into the air, and then, with his fingers forming claws, gripped the mountain wall with both hands. Like a nimble monkey, he leaped onto the path above the mountain wall in a few swift movements.

We hurried along the path, then wandered for a while through the winding canyons.

A group of figures appeared in Chen Fan's line of sight.

Ahead is a platform above the canyon.

On both the other side of the canyon and on this side, there were groups of people standing.

On the opposite side of the canyon, a young man dressed in silver armor sat in a chair with a beautiful woman in his arms, coldly watching the canyon below.

Behind him stood two middle-aged men with their hands behind their backs.

To the left of the young man in silver armor, an old man with white hair was prostrate on the ground.

The white-haired old man was lying face down on the ground with his feet bound by chains, and his outstretched right hand was pinned to the ground by a long sword.

A short knife lay in front of him.

He seemed intent on grabbing that short knife in front of him!

On this side of the canyon, four young men clad in heavy armor stared menacingly down into the canyon.

Chen Fan quietly moved forward a few meters, looked down, and was immediately shocked, his blood rushed to his head, and his eyes widened in fury!

Right below that canyon, more than thirty people were bound by chains and were screaming incessantly!

There were more than thirty people, including men, women, and children.

Nine of the children were pinned to nine stone pillars by a short, jet-black spear!

They were covered in blood, their heads bowed, their fate unknown!

"brute!"

Chen Fan was filled with grief and indignation, his anger rising to the heavens, and he was furious beyond control!

At this moment, the murderous intent in his heart reached an unprecedented level!

His insane killing intent nearly overwhelmed him.

The surrounding world seemed to have turned blood red!

Slaughter them!

We must kill them at all costs!

At this moment, only this one thought remained in Chen Fan's mind!

He unsheathed the long sword from his back, gripped the scabbard with his left hand and the hilt with his right, and slowly walked out.

"Um?"

Almost the instant he emerged from behind the rock, a group of people on the other side of the canyon, along with the four people on his side, all looked at him at the same time!

The four people on this side of the canyon, upon seeing the "mask" made of leaves on Chen Fan's face, didn't even ask any questions. They quickly spread out in a fan shape, drew their swords, and surrounded Chen Fan!

"Clang!"

Chen Fan suddenly drew his longsword and swept it horizontally!

A flash of light!

The four men were taken aback and instinctively held their longswords horizontally in front of them to block the attack.

"Pfft!"

The sharp and domineering blade light instantly cut the four people in two!

With star power comparable to the peak of the fourth rank, once the lightning power of the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade is unleashed, how could an ordinary third rank cultivator withstand it?

The armor worn by the four third-grade cultivators was as fragile as paper under such a single strike!

Chen Fan kicked one of the men's upper bodies down into the canyon, then walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at the young man in silver armor opposite him.

"well……"

Li Xinghe, dressed in silver armor, sighed and said, "In this world, there are always some self-righteous guys who like to play the hero and ruin other people's good deeds."

"But in this world, the weak have always been trampled on, and this has never changed since ancient times."

"No matter how angry you are, it's nothing more than an ant's roar against an unjust fate, it's meaningless."

"The group of weaklings below can lure out the Shadow Behemoth and then become its food; that is their greatest value."

"I'll give you a chance. If you back down now, I can let bygones be bygones."

"Otherwise, you will become one of them."

The beautiful woman in Li Xinghe's arms immediately giggled.

Chen Fan glanced at the group of people opposite him, his gaze lingering on the beautiful woman for a moment...

A level 18 Nine-Tailed Ice Fox.

That beautiful woman was actually a nine-tailed ice fox who had transformed into human form!

A fierce glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes as he quickly scanned the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox's skills.

Level 18...

Back when I was only at the third rank, second level, killing a level 18 demon was quite difficult.

but now……

At this moment, the white-haired old man whose right hand was pinned by a long sword below the canyon suddenly struggled, raised his left hand, and tried to pull the long sword pinning his right hand out!

"snort!"

The nine-tailed ice fox in Li Xinghe's arms laughed and casually flicked its right hand.

"laugh!"

An icicle about two feet long pinned the white-haired old man's left hand to the ground!

Not only that, rings of ice crystals started from the white-haired old man's left palm and quickly spread to his entire body, freezing him completely!

"You bitch!"

Chen Fan gritted his teeth.

Then the nine-tailed ice fox stood up and stepped on the white-haired old man's back, almost burying the old man's entire body into the ground.

Then, the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox turned around, smiled at Chen Fan, and said softly, "What can you do about this?"

"Are you angry? Feeling powerless?"

"boom!"

The rocks beneath Chen Fan's feet shattered, and he shot towards the other side of the canyon like a missile!

"I'll kill you!"

"You're asking for death!" A middle-aged man behind Li Xinghe casually slapped Chen Fan, who was in mid-air, with his right hand.

A massive palm print, like a tidal wave, crashed down on Chen Fan!

"Wings of the Wind!"

With a flash of wings behind him, Chen Fan quickly rose into the air, dodging the palm print, and then flew down to the top of the opposite canyon at an even faster speed!

"Wind Binding Technique!"

Before he even landed, Chen Fan pushed forward with his left hand and threw the "Wind Binding Technique," which he had copied from Emerald, at the nine-tailed ice fox.

"call!"

Before the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox could react, she was swept up by the whirlwind and bound more than two meters off the ground!

At that moment, Chen Fan crashed down, slashing his blade at the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox: "Die!"

The light of lightning, condensed into a blade, illuminated the darkness.

"presumptuous!"

The two middle-aged men behind Li Xinghe gave a soft shout and moved out like ghosts, blocking the nine-tailed ice fox.

The two were incredibly fast. As soon as they blocked the way, they simultaneously threw a punch at the blade light in the sky!

"roar!"

An ice dragon and a fire dragon roared in unison, entangled together, and crashed heavily into the blade light unleashed by Chen Fan.

"boom!"

An incredibly powerful force, centered on the point of contact between the blade and the two dragons, swept outwards in all directions.

The two middle-aged men were taken aback and took three steps back.

The Nine-Tailed Ice Fox and Li Xinghe, who was sitting in a chair, were caught off guard and were blasted away by the aftershock of the star power. They rolled around on the ground, looking extremely disheveled!

"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Hong, kill him!"

After getting up, Li Xinghe's face was contorted, and he roared hysterically, "Kill him! I want him dead!"

The two middle-aged men drew their longswords and then launched a fierce attack on Chen Fan.

Two longswords, one flashing with a cold blue light and the other flashing with a fiery red light, attacked Chen Fan like poisonous dragons from the left and right.

Unlike before, this time, the two of them unleashed their full power!

The two swords thrust out, and the two whirlwinds almost completely blocked the area in front of him, leaving Chen Fan with nowhere to hide!

A fierce wind swept through, cutting like a knife across the face!

Chen Fan knew that both of them were at the third level of the fourth rank and their swords were of a high level, so he dared not be careless. He activated his star power and unleashed the Lightning Flash.

"Crack!"

With a flash of lightning, he vanished from the sight of the two middle-aged men!

"What?"

Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong were stunned for a moment.

It's quite normal for those at the third rank or above to use martial arts techniques of various attributes.

But this kind of footwork that comes and goes without a trace is simply unheard of!

How could a Star Warrior who hasn't even condensed his Star Power Armor possess such bizarre movement techniques?

"Uncle Zhao, watch out!"

Before the two middle-aged men could turn around, Li Xinghe's exclamation rang out from behind!

Uncle Zhao didn't have time to turn around. His body sank down quickly, and then he rolled away in a tumble.

The blade flashed past Uncle Zhao's head, sweeping towards Uncle Hong with incredible speed.

Uncle Hong quickly sidestepped and created a shield.

"boom!"

The blade struck the shield, causing its light to flicker. Uncle Hong staggered back several steps!

But Chen Fan did not press his advantage. Instead, he suddenly turned around and swept his blade across Li Xinghe and the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox!

Li Xinghe's face was gloomy, but he did not retreat.

The Nine-Tailed Ice Fox flicked her sleeve lightly and let out a soft shout...

"An extreme cold ice wall!"

With a soft shout from the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox, a transparent ice wall engraved with countless runes appeared and blocked Chen Fan's path.

The blade light that Chen Fan unleashed struck the extremely cold ice wall with a muffled thud, immediately rebounding and sweeping back towards Chen Fan!

Chen Fan had previously looked at the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox's attribute panel and glanced at its skills, so he was prepared. With a simple step forward with his right foot, he easily dodged the rebounding blade light.

At this moment, the "Extreme Cold Ice Wall" split to the sides, and the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox quickly appeared, flicking its sleeves twice towards Chen Fan!

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss!"

Her sleeves seemed light and airy, but with a flick of her wrist, they produced a sharp, piercing sound.

It was like a whip lashing rapidly through the air!

In Chen Fan's perception, what was being violently lashed out at him was not a sleeve robe at all.

Those were simply two enormous white fox tails!

That's the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox's skill, "Nine-Tailed Combo"!

The enormous fox tail lashed out, causing the air to scramble to the sides with a deafening roar!

Such imposing presence is in no way inferior to that of Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong behind them!

Then, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong approached like ghosts and attacked Chen Fan's back!

Besieged on all sides!

A cruel smile immediately appeared on Li Xinghe's lips!

"snort!"

Although Chen Fan was not afraid, he did not want to continue this entanglement.

A flash of lightning appeared on his body, and then another lightning bolt, and he vanished into thin air!

The Nine-Tailed Ice Fox and Li Xinghe looked horrified and turned around abruptly!

But there was no one behind him!

"Star River, watch out!"

"above!"

Amidst Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong's exclamations, the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox reacted with incredible speed, creating a massive "Extreme Cold Ice Wall" that stretched upwards!

"die!"

Chen Fan, suspended in mid-air, unleashed a furious slash with his star power!

"boom!"

The domineering and unparalleled blade light shattered the extreme cold ice wall in one strike, cleaving the nine-tailed ice fox diagonally downwards from its shoulder!

"..."

The nine-tailed ice fox's body exploded instantly.

Blood and flesh flying everywhere!

The extreme cold ice wall does indeed possess the power to deflect attacks.

But it also depends on how strong the opponent's attack is!

With Chen Fan's current star power, combined with the top-grade Xuanbing weapon, the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, even an ordinary fifth-grade cultivator might not be able to withstand him unless they went all out!

"Bang!"

The moment the nine-tailed ice fox's corpse exploded, Chen Fan also landed on the ground with a thud.

"Uncle Zhao, save me!"

Seeing Chen Fan kill the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox with a single strike, Li Xinghe lost his previous composure and cried out in panic!

Behind Chen Fan, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong, their killing intent rising, attacked Chen Fan again from the left and right.

"Crack!"

Chen Fan used a lightning bolt to teleport more than fifty meters away.

"Um?"

Seeing Chen Fan suddenly teleport away, Li Xinghe and the others were stunned, wondering what kind of tactic this was.

A summoning array appeared right in front of Chen Fan.

A chubby orange cat crawled out of the summoning circle.

"What? He's a beast tamer?"

Li Xinghe and the other two were taken aback.

They had always thought that the guy with the leaves covering his face was a Star Warrior.

What kind of beast tamer fights for ages before summoning their beast?

What they didn't know was that Chen Fan originally didn't want to summon the beast tamer.

Firstly, the characteristics of a beast tamer are too strong. Once summoned, it is easy for people to remember it and then investigate its details... If you really intend to summon a beast tamer, what's the use of wearing a leaf on your face?

Secondly, let alone the level 6 orange cat, even Little White and the others are now struggling to keep up with Chen Fan's strength improvement and can no longer participate in battles at the fourth-grade level.

However, those two fourth-grade third-level cultivators were both veterans with extensive experience, and they were also wearing Star Power Armor, making them very difficult to deal with.

If we want to finish this quickly, we still need the old master's help.

"Depend on!"

As soon as the orange cat sensed the two people's cultivation levels, it immediately started cursing, "I thought you were summoning me out for dinner... I knew it, summoning me never brings anything good!"

"You never think of anything good, but when something like this happens, you drag me out of it..."

"Isn't this going too far?!"

Li Xinghe and the other two: "..."

Although the orange cat's grading cannot be determined.

But in their perception, the orange cat was pitifully weak.

What's going on?

Normally, beast tamers and beast masters grow together. Even if there is a slight difference in their cultivation levels, it is unlikely that the difference will be too great.

The guy in front of me with his face covered by leaves is no less powerful than Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong.

His tamed beast must be at least level 18 or higher, right?

Why does that orange cat seem so weak to me?

"Hey, let me go back!"

The orange cat meowed again: "You wouldn't help me break through faster, and now you make me do this kind of thing every day. I want to live a few more days!"

"Enough with the nonsense!" Chen Fan said. "There are still a group of people down there whose lives hang in the balance. I need to finish this quickly and give them a hand!"

The orange cat circled behind Chen Fan: "I'm afraid I'll die in an instant..."

Before he could finish speaking, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Hong attacked from the left and right!

"Crack!"

Chen Fan used the same old trick, flashing behind Uncle Zhao with lightning speed.

As soon as Uncle Zhao saw Chen Fan disappear, he immediately turned around...

"A mental thorn!"

The orange cat, which they had almost ignored, unleashed its skill.

Before Uncle Zhao's shield could even be deployed, he immediately screamed in agony!

"boom!"

The lightning-fast blade shattered the Star Power Armor and then cleaved Uncle Zhao's body in two with a single strike!

A bunch of self-important idiots...

Did you think that having the Star Power Armor meant you wouldn't need to wear battle armor anymore?

Chen Fan sneered and, without pausing, swept his blade across Uncle Hong.

Seeing Uncle Zhao killed with a single blow, Uncle Hong was terrified and retreated without thinking!

Chen Fan's strike missed its mark!

"A mental thorn!"

The orange cat then unleashed its skill on Uncle Hong.

Uncle Hong screamed and squatted down, clutching his head.

Before Li Xinghe could even react in disbelief, Chen Fan charged out like lightning, and with another swift strike, he killed Uncle Hong!

Even with a fifth-grade cultivator having erected a mental barrier, they couldn't withstand the orange cat's attack.

What's more, a mere fourth-rank, third-level being?

After killing Uncle Hong with a single blow, Chen Fan turned around and silently looked at Li Xinghe.

Li Xinghe's hand, holding the longsword, trembled as he said, "I am a member of the Li family of Shanghai. If you dare to kill me, the Li family will search high and low to find you and your family, and kill them all!"

"You can't escape!"

As he spoke, Li Xinghe gently touched a ring on the finger of his left hand.

A circular shield covered with countless runes immediately enveloped him completely.

Chen Fan remained silent.

A flash of lightning appeared on his body, and he activated Lightning Flash once more!

"brush!"

As soon as he appeared in front of Li Xinghe, Chen Fan's longsword flashed with light and he slashed down fiercely!

Just as the longsword made contact with the shield...

"boom!"

The violent energy exploded outwards, and Chen Fan's tiger's mouth went numb. He was pushed backwards by a tremendous force, and his feet plowed a deep trench in the ground!

Li Xinghe smiled slightly: "Even a fifth-grade cultivator wouldn't be able to break through this shield."

"You think you can kill me so easily?"

A glint flashed in the orange cat's eyes, and a sharp mental spike shot out.

"what!"

Li Xinghe screamed and collapsed to the ground, clutching his head!

The orange cat looked at Chen Fan with a hint of helplessness and said, "This shield blocked some of the mental energy, and the power of the mental spikes weakened considerably after penetrating the shield."

Chen Fan nodded slightly: "Continue."

The orange cat's repeated mental attacks tormented Li Xinghe to the point where he felt he could neither live nor die.

At this moment, Chen Fan had already unleashed all his star power and executed the first strike of the Nine Heaven-Severing Blades...

His feet began to move rapidly, his body leaving a trail of afterimages!

"A single slash shatters a thunderclap in mid-air!"

The peerless blade light seemed to tear through space, striking the circular shield that Li Xinghe had erected.

"boom!"

A blinding light erupted, and the shield shattered!

Li Xinghe, who was inside the shield, was cleaved in two by the blade before he could react!

As his body was split in two, the two halves of his corpse exploded with a loud bang!

Without even glancing at the corpse, Chen Fan quickly walked to the white-haired old man lying prostrate on the ground, placed his palm on the frozen body, and gave it a gentle jolt.

The ice melted...

Chen Fan reached out and checked; there was still a pulse.

After a moment's hesitation, Chen Fan sent the orange cat back to the Beast Taming Space, then picked up the white-haired old man, activated "Wings of Wind," and floated lightly down into the canyon.

The group of people below had long seen the battle above the canyon, and when they saw Chen Fanfei descending, they were all overjoyed and wept tears of joy!

Chen Fan swung his long sword and cut the chains binding those people.

Although these people were covered in wounds, they could move freely.

But when Chen Fan reached the stone pillars, he probed them with his spiritual power, and his heart sank...

The children who were nailed to the nine stone pillars were all dead.

Even the corpses were already ice-cold!

Standing in front of the stone pillar, Chen Fan's entire body stiffened.

At this moment, some of those who were freed from their restraints threw themselves against the stone pillars and cried out in anguish!

After a long silence, Chen Fan was just about to speak...

Suddenly, a glint flashed in his eyes as he looked up at the top of the cliff!

A man in his fifties appeared at the edge of the platform where Li Xinghe was killed!

And standing next to the man was a level 19 flamingo!

"Did you kill members of my Li family?"

The old man's voice came down from above the canyon.

It was a long distance away, but it felt like someone was speaking right next to my ear!

Those who had been weeping uncontrollably suddenly showed expressions of fear!

Chen Fan said in a deep voice, "Take these children out and give them a proper burial. You all head north, and I'll lead him south!"

After saying that, he moved swiftly and with a boom, rushed towards the south side of the canyon.

"snort!"

A soft hum echoed in the void.

Then the flamingo spread its huge wings and, carrying the old man, quickly caught up!

Although the rescued group was worried about Chen Fan, they were helpless at the moment and could only collect the children's corpses from the stone pillar and struggle to escape north.

……

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Every time Chen Fan stepped on the ground, it made a loud thud.

He pushed his speed to the limit and rushed hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.

In the air, the old man stood on the back of the flamingo, his eyes narrowing slightly.

This speed is already very close to the fifth rank.

A murderous glint flashed in the old man's eyes, and the flamingo beneath his feet immediately swooped down, lowering its altitude.

The distance between the two sides is rapidly closing!

"Rage!"

The flamingo cried out to the sky, increased its speed, caught up with Chen Fan, and then landed in front of him!

Chen Fan stopped.

The old man on the flamingo's back, with his hands behind his back, calmly jumped down and said indifferently, "Did you kill someone from my Li family?"

He had already asked that question once.

Chen Fan didn't say anything, but simply summoned the orange cat again.

"..."

The orange cat was furious and really wanted to scratch Chen Fan to death.

He's just a level 6 orange cat right now!

He was already trembling with fear after just facing those fourth-grade cultivators.

Now comes something even more powerful...

A powerhouse of that level could be wiped out with just a gust of wind!

What's most infuriating is that Chen Fan even sent Xiaoqing away.

Right now, he only has Gangzi's "Magic Crystal Armor" on him!

What good is Gangzi's level 9 magic crystal armor against a fifth-grade cultivator?

The orange cat had an urge to smash its head against a wall and die.

Just then...

Chen Fan took a step forward and unleashed a fierce slash at the old man!

"An ignorant child, trying to break a rock with an egg!"

The old man gave a cold shout.

Almost at the same time, the flamingo beside the old man opened its beak and spewed a mouthful of flame at Chen Fan!

The orange cat was terrified. It let out a strange meow and rushed to the right, but accidentally crashed into a rock, shattering it and embedding itself inside!
