Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 238
Chapter 238: Instant Killing Bart
Slight tremors came from the ground and the sound of beasts running got increasingly closer. Parker looked in the direction of the sound and his entire body took on a defensive stance.
“Where are my children?” Rosa’s sharp voice rang out, and the running sounds came to a stop. Over ten beastmen stopped in front of the bird’s shelter.
Bart, in his human form, looked around anxiously, his nose twitching quickly. He couldn’t hold it in and dashed into the bird’s shelter. Parker instinctively wanted to pounce forth to defend his own territory, but at the thought of those children, he forcibly held back the urge.
“Where are my children? Where did you guys hide them?” Bart bellowed.
It might be because the atmosphere didn’t seem right, or the scent of blood in the air had given him an ominous feeling, but Bart completely lost his cool. His eyes flashed a green light in the night.
Bai Qingqing couldn’t help but throw a glance toward Curtis’s stomach. Rosa immediately screamed, “You ate them?”
“Howl!” Bart lost control and transformed into his wolf form, pouncing viciously toward Curtis.
Curtis’s lips curled up in contempt. He tugged at Bai Qingqing’s wrist, bringing her behind him. Then, his body pounced forth abruptly.
Snake beastmen wouldn’t lose out to leopard beastmen in terms of explosive prowess. They might even be a notch higher in this area. Parker was able to take advantage of Bart with his explosive prowess, let alone Curtis, a four-striped beastman.
Bart’s move was clearly courting death.
Everyone was only able to see afterimages flashing about, then the sound of bones being forcibly broken rang out in the dead silence of the night. By the time they could see clearly, Curtis had one hand pressing down onto the wolf beastman, and the latter’s head rolled to the side, his bloodshot eyes still carrying the ferocious gleam from when he pounced forth to kill.
“Ahhh!” Rosa screamed out.
Even though Bai Qingqing was on Curtis’s side, she was also frightened by this scene. Her knees gave way and she almost fell to the ground. Thankfully, Parker was standing right behind her and had reached out his hands to support her.
Curtis let go of the wolf beastman’s corpse, then got up and looked toward Rosa. Rosa’s mates immediately surrounded her, and the tiger beastman carrying her retreated into the protective circle.
One of Rosa’s tiger beastman mates transformed into his human form and stood at the very front. There were three animal stripes on his face, but his age was clearly not considered young. He looked toward Winston, saying in a harsh tone, “Are you just going to watch coldly when our tribe’s female is being threatened?”
Winston looked toward him, wearing a perplexed gaze. “Our tribe? I seemed to have been chased out of the tiger tribe by her a long time ago. Moreover, I’m not watching from the side. I’m firmly taking Bai Qingqing’s side.”
“You!” The three-striped tiger beastman’s voice choked.
Rosa started bawling loudly, saying sobbingly, “Go get my father, the wolf king, and the ape king here. I want them to take revenge for my children and my mate… Boohoohoo…”
Bai Qingqing felt a little anxious when she heard that. With the wolf king and tiger king together, there’d be two four-striped beastmen. There was also the ape king. What if he couldn’t win against them?
She grabbed Parker’s arm and asked softly, “Should we get your father to come?”
Parker wore a contemptuous smile. His voice wasn’t loud, but every beastman present could hear him. “The tiger king might come to protect his female child, but the wolf king, haha… It’s only a male who has formed his own family as well as his children who have died. The wolf king wouldn’t take such a great risk over them.”
“Really?” Bai Qingqing was still worried. However, she suddenly realized a very serious problem. “Then, would your father still care about you?”
“Urgh…” Parker fell silent. If the wolf king didn’t give a care and insisted on standing up for Rosa, his father probably wouldn’t let things be.
Not long later, the kings from the four great beastman tribes had all arrived. The ape, wolf, and tiger kings had come after receiving notice from Rosa’s mate. However, no one knew how the leopard king received news about this matter.
