While Fermo and Dami were looking for their wishes, Ren picked up a "heart" at his feet and examined it.
He was standing relatively close to the top of the "hill", so this "heart" was still intact, but it looked a little sluggish. Like the "hearts" below, it was almost impossible to find them because they were trampled by those big rats.
A complete one.
The "heart" in Ren's hand is light cyan, and there are many other colors on the ground around it, including black, yellow, and green. It's amazing that a tree can grow such a thing.
It's quite magical.
Just when he bent down to put the "heart" back, he suddenly heard a chirping sound not far away. He looked in the direction of the sound and found that several big rats were running towards this side.
They were accompanied by a few people with rat heads and brains.
Those people came straight towards them in a menacing manner. Renn looked back at Fermo and his son who were squatting on the ground looking for wishes. It seemed that those people were coming to find them.
"It seems that to solve this matter, we must think of some unusual methods."
Ren pondered for a while, without warning Fermo and Dami, but quietly ran under the "hill".
Just now, through the light shining from the mouse's eyes, he saw something quite interesting.
…
Fermo dug through the pile of "hearts" with both hands. Only when he saw the bright red "heart" would he stop, examine it carefully, then throw it aside and continue digging.
Just after he threw out another "heart" that looked very close to his wish, the surrounding light suddenly dimmed.
When he looked up, he saw that he was surrounded by four or five people.
The leading one had the most fierce appearance. As soon as Fermo raised his head, he grabbed Fermo by the collar.
"Is this guy just staying here and refusing to leave?"
A person next to him nodded quickly: "Yes, that's him. He won't leave no matter how much he scolds him. I don't dare to hit him..."
The leader said "poof" to him: "Trash!"
After saying that, he slapped Fermo directly, and the huge force knocked Fermo to the ground, moaning incessantly.
Then he looked at Dami, who was being carried over by his companions and struggling, and suddenly said angrily: "Why the hell is there still a little cub?"
He raised his mouse paw and wanted to slap Damiya, but his foot was held by someone.
I looked down and saw it was Fermo.
Fermo's voice was weak and he begged: "Don't fight, please. As long as we find my wish, we will leave immediately and won't cause you any trouble."
He responded with a kick from the team leader.
"Don't you cause us any trouble? I'm sleeping well at this point, just because you, a bastard, made me run away."
The leader squatted down, held Fermo by the back of his neck with one hand and pulled him up halfway, and grabbed a "heart" from the ground with the other hand.
"Wish?" He said with a sinister smile: "Do you know where this place is? A garbage pit! All the garbage brought here is garbage. You idiots, hugging a broken tree every day, I think about it every time I pass by
Laugh, who the hell cares about your wishes? You are just a bunch of useless garbage, and the wishes you made are also a bunch of useless garbage. They are no different from leftovers or broken buckets.
It’s rubbish!”
Under Fermo's desperate gaze, the leader crushed his "heart" in his hand, then threw Fermo to the ground and stood up.
A follower came up: "Captain, what should we do now? Throw them both out?"
"Throw them out for what? Beat them!" The leader glared at the followers: "Beat them harder, won't they refuse to leave? Then beat them until they can't walk anymore. They are just two trash anyway, so they will die here.
"
The follower glanced at Dami, whose mouth was covered by his companion, and asked with some hesitation: "Is this kid going to be beaten too?"
"Why don't you fight?"
Seeing that the man below was hesitant, the team leader pushed him away and walked towards Dami: "Damn it, if you don't hit me, I'll still be angry!"
Just as he was about to take action, there was a sound like rolling gravel.
When the team leader looked back, he discovered that a black object had appeared on the top of the small "hill" at some point.
If you look closely, you will see that it is a monster with a huge mouth and sharp teeth.
The monster's entire body is just a ball with a big mouth on it, which is more than one meter long. Other than that, it has no limbs or facial features.
After seeing what it was, the team leader looked puzzled and furious.
"What the hell is this?"
The big-mouthed monster opened and closed, and actually made human sounds.
"I want something to eat, something fresh to eat..."
"Pretending." The leader pushed a follower forward and said, "Find out the people inside. I'm really unlucky today. I encountered all kinds of things."
The follower came up with a knife in hand, and patted the big-mouthed monster with the knife: "People inside, come out! It's not me..."
Before he finished speaking, the monster opened its mouth and swallowed him whole. The monster closed its mouth, shook its body twice, and the follower inside let out a scream, and then there was no more sound.
"..."
The leader gritted his teeth and laughed angrily. He also took out the weapon from his waist and said as he walked: "You like to play, right? Okay, I won't sleep tonight. I'll catch you out later."
, let me have some fun with you?"
Then, after letting out another scream, the team leader who was extremely arrogant a second ago was also swallowed by the monster with a big mouth.
The remaining few followers ran away when they saw this, and the big-mouthed monster jumped fiercely and pinned the last one under him.
"I want something to eat..."
The pinned servant was in pain and frightened, and said mournfully: "What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat people..."
"Ah ah ah, don't, please, I don't taste good!!!"
"That was before..."
The follower wanted to curse, but the situation was pressing, so he could only cry: "Then what do you want to eat now?"
"Your hearts..."
The follower howled: "Isn't that the same?!!"
"This kind of thing on the ground..."
"..."
The follower had a grimace on his face, and he didn't know whether he was in pain or angry: "If you want this kind of mentality, aren't there a lot of them on the ground? You can eat whatever you want, just let me go."
“Not fresh enough…”
"We bring fresh ones here every day, you can just eat those."
"To be fresher..."
"If it's still fresh, then you can just go to the tree and eat it yourself!"
"Where is the tree..."
The attendant broke out in a cold sweat.
The monster in front of him didn't really look like a monster. Although he had been begging for mercy, he just didn't want to be swallowed. But now that the other person said it, he seemed to really believe that this thing was a monster.
"You don't really want to chew on the tree, do you?"
"Show me..."
The Big Mouth Monster is still concise and to the point.
Thinking that the other party might really be a monster, the follower felt furious. He pointed in the direction of Nelas City, and then he felt a light on his body, and the big-mouthed monster was gone.
After trembling twice, the follower rolled away and ran away.
Nearby, Dami, who was left behind, went to help Fermo while thinking:
"Is this the man-eating moon ghost Mr. Altaïr said?"
