After it obtained the blood from all the preys’ heart’s, the three-legged strange bird suddenly flew towards the lava lake. It then used its sharp claws to easily extract a few lotus seeds from the lotus seedpod.
Seeing this scene, Yi Yun’s heart sank. The strange bird had taken all the matured lotus seeds away.
For a treasure at such a rank, it was probably not easy to pick it, including its tubers, in one go. Its tubers may be invulnerable to the slashing from swords and sabers. Besides, with so many strange birds watching, Yi Yun did not have the confidence in doing so.
It would have been pretty impressive if he obtained a few lotus seeds, but now, all the matured lotus seeds had been plucked away by the three-legged strange bird.
The three-legged strange bird placed the lotus seeds into the bone cup and then carried the bone cup into the cave on the mountain cliff.
That cave that was situated on the cliff was an even clearer target. It even had the strange birds’ leader guarding it. Yi Yun turned speechless upon seeing this. It was now even more difficult to obtain!
“This strange bird extracted the lotus seeds and the blood from the heart. It even used a desolate beast’s clavicle bone as a cup. What is it doing?”
Yi Yun felt that the three-legged strange bird was probably not going to simply drink the desolate beast’s heart’s blood, if not, with a desolate beast’s nature, they would eat the raw meat and drink the blood. They could just swallow it down, so what was the point of the bone cup?
For a desolate beast like the three-legged strange bird, it would not have been an easy task to create a container. Using a bone cup to drink blood would be extremely taxing for it, it did not have to do so.
However, regardless of what the three-legged strange bird wanted to do, Yi Yun was helpless. With his strength, he could not do a thing in such a strange bird’s territory.
After the three-legged strange bird disappeared, only then did the other strange birds complete their odd rituals as they began to feast on the prey on the ground.
Tens of strange birds rushed forward and immediately, flesh and blood were sent flying. Yi Yun noticed that, even when these strange birds ate, the few strange birds in charge of being on alert on the cliff did not relax at all. They remained behind to care for the lava lake. Only after the other strange birds were done eating would a few other strange birds fly towards the mountain. They then changed shifts with the few strange birds guarding on the top level.
“So strict!” Yi Yun was completely speechless. They were just a bunch of birds, yet the management of their lookout post was similar to humans. It felt impenetrable.
What was he to do?
