Chapter 40 Archer Fish

Ye Feng's expression was grim, as the map indicated their next destination was the town of Kladen, which claimed to offer a sanctuary.

"Big brother, it looks like it's going to rain~"

As Ye Feng pondered, a small voice chimed in again.

"Rain?"

Glancing at the sky, which was bright and cloudless, Ye Feng was puzzled.

"Xiao Xiao, let's go, we need to find a place to shelter from the rain~"

Having learned from their experience with the gargoyle, Ye Feng decided to trust Xiao Xiao.

Besides, the weather in this remnant fire world was indeed unpredictable, as the sudden drop in temperature that felt like an instant winter had proven.

Soon, Ye Feng mounted his KT

Then, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao's speed increased drastically, narrowly avoiding the tumbling, roaring mudslide.

"Bi....Big brother, you...you...you..."

Clinging tightly to Ye Feng's waist with her hands and held between his legs, Xiao Xiao, looking at what was above them, was stunned.

Ye Feng had, at that very moment, opened the modified tent.

The strong wind that had been blowing fiercely from behind them happened to catch the opening of the tent, lifting it upwards.

Ye Feng, holding onto the tent, was naturally swept forward by this wind, leaving the mudslide that was almost catching up to them behind.

"Xiao Xiao, hold on tight~"

Ye Feng manipulated the two corners of the tent, controlling the angle of the wind entering it, shaping it into something resembling a parachute that allowed them to drift forward rapidly.

"Holy crap!"

Ye Feng yelped.

Amidst the surging floodwaters and mudslide, a relatively intact mound of earth and a massive rock were hurled high into the air, flying towards them.

The mound of earth and rock, launched skyward, was clearly moving faster than them. Within moments, it caught up and flew directly over Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao's heads, crashing heavily onto the bank on the other side of the great canyon.

By this time, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao had also just flown across the wide canyon, which was dozens of meters across.

The impact of the mound of earth and rock striking the ground sent shockwaves, causing the wind direction to suddenly shift and distort. Ye Feng's "parachute" instantly lost control, and they began to fall.

"Plop~ Plop~~ Sssshhh~ Zz~"

Fortunately, they landed in puddles of water, sustaining no significant injuries.

"Bi....Big brother, the...the mountain...it's gone!"

Crawling out of the water pit, Xiao Xiao looked back in the direction they had come from, her face filled with astonishment.

Ye Feng also turned to look, his heart greatly shaken.

The mountain they had been on moments before had been completely razed to the ground, leaving only the surging, raging floodwaters and mudslide...

"Beep~ Detecting Archerfish, distance 0 meters~"

Suddenly, the system's prompt sounded.

Before Ye Feng could react, a sharp pain shot through his backside.

"Ah~!"
