"Why is there no sound? What's going on outside?”
The white fox stared at the entrance of the valley anxiously with its big ears pricked up toot muttering softly.
The deafening beast roars outside the valley had turned into a strange silence, which undoubtedly made the white fox tremble with fear.
Its keen intuition sensed that something terrible had happened outside the valley. It was as if all the magical beasts had died, which caused this silence.
Just as the white fox was restless and distracted, a little fellow higher above it watched the white fox's every move with curious and shining eyes.
"It looks very uneasy, but isn't it very safe here in the tree? There's no need to be afraid of the magical beasts outside.”
This little fellow was Annie. She tilted her head, not understanding why the white fox was so uneasy.
She had been paying attention to this intruder the moment the white fox entered the valley. The snow-white and beautiful fox instantly aroused Annie's curiosity.
Annie knew about the berserk beasts outside the valley, but she wasn't worried at all. She just needed to stay on the tree.
Annie slowly flew to the sky above the white fox. She was kind enough to comfort the panicking white fox.
"Hello, this place is very safe. You don't have to worry about the berserk magical beasts outside.”
A crisp and pleasant voice suddenly entered the white fox's mind. In an instant, the white fox's soft fur stood up and straightened, like a cat with its fur standing on end.
"Who is it?"
Her slender and beautiful body tensed up, and her blue gem-like pupils contracted rapidly as she searched for the source of the sound.
They raised their heads and saw Annie hovering in the air. Their eyes sparkled like gemstones as they looked at each other.
"Little elf."
The information about the continent's races that her mother had told her about appeared in the white fox's mind. She instantly recognized the little fellow in front of her and her vigilant heart could not help but relax.
It knew that fairies were kind and timid creatures. Ordinary intelligent creatures could not see them at all. Only those ignorant magic beasts could come into contact with them.
"Hello, my name is Betty. Why do you say it's safe here?”
Recalling what the other party had just said, the white fox asked in confusion.
It wanted to know what had happened outside. It was obvious that the elf knew what had happened.
"Hehe, my name is Annie. This is my home and the tree's home. It's very safe here with the tree's protection.”
At the mention of the tree, Annie's cute little face revealed a proud and happy smile. She squinted her big crescent-shaped eyes and spoke in a proud and confident voice.
"Jia, Shu, could it be..."
A bolt of lightning flashed across the white fox's mind, and her expression suddenly changed. She looked at the giant tree below her in disbelief as if she had thought of something. She muttered to herself in shock,"Could it be that this tree is protecting this place?”
"Yes, yes, it's a tree. The berserk magical beasts outside are also dealt with by trees.”
Annie nodded her little head adorably and proudly. She didn't seem to care that the white fox's expression had changed drastically as she continued to throw out shocking news.
"This, this…"
After receiving an affirmative answer, the white fox was stunned for a moment and did not know what to say.
This was something that it could never have imagined. Staring at the giant tree below it, it could not see how it had killed the large number of berserk magical beasts outside.
Betty was a fox that had seen a lot of things. She had seen many strange magical beasts. She had even seen and come into contact with Class 7 and Class 8 magical beasts.
However, he had never seen such a mysterious and strange giant tree before.
" How interesting. Such high intelligence."
Lin Mu laughed as he admired the white fox's dumbfounded and bewildered look. He could not help but have the thought of teasing it.
In the next moment, in its daze, a green branch slowly stretched out and wrapped around the white fox's body at lightning speed, firmly binding it.
"Kaka ~"
By the time the white fox reacted, it was already too late. It twisted its body and struggled with all its might, letting out a shrill cry.
"Shu, don't scare it. Let it go.”
Annie looked at the struggling white fox and rolled her eyes.
"Haha, don't be afraid, little fox.”
The white fox's reaction was really interesting. Lin Mu also knew that teasing it was enough. Then, he slowly released the branches that bound it.
The white fox, which had regained its freedom, did not run around in panic. Instead, it lay on the tree trunk obediently.
"A tree that can talk, so powerful."
In just ten seconds, the panic and fear in the white fox's eyes gradually faded away, replaced by curiosity and awe.
"Little Fox, your name is Betty, right?”
The gentle and generous voice sounded in her mind again. The white fox looked curiously at the giant tree in front of her.
"Yes."
The white fox named Betty answered carefully. She did not dare to say anything else for fear of angering the giant tree and binding it again.
You can call me Holy Tree."
Lin Mu found it funny. The little fox's actions were very obedient and very smart. It knew how to deal with danger.
The fox was a very intelligent, cunning, and charming creature. It seemed that even in the other world, it was the same. However, it had become smarter and possessed a lot of wisdom.
From the series of reactions of the white fox, Lin Mu could tell that the intelligence of this little fox was not much lower than that of a human.
