Chapter 236 236: The Threat of Wild Beasts

After digging up the genetic cores, Mabel, who was keeping watch nearby, approached them and said, "I don't recommend taking anything else besides the genetic cores. Although the bodies of these giants have high defense, it's mainly due to their race. Once they die, their skin becomes softer and the material value drops drastically. Not to mention, there's no record of any other part of their bodies worth keeping."

Barbara, who was completely covered in blood, said, "As far as I'm concerned, it's not worth it; just the genetic cores are enough." She waved her hand dismissively, showing her indifference.

Amon calmly suggested that they clean themselves up before leaving. As for the giants' bodies, since no one was interested, he proposed that they remove them from the water and leave them on solid ground to be devoured by random beasts that came along them. Although it may have seemed cruel to do so, it was a reality of life on the planet they were on. Besides, these giants had tried to attack them, and there was no reason to be overly reverent with their bodies.

After removing the giant bodies from the water, Amon and the girls bathed in the crystal-clear stream of the waterfall. The warm and sweet water was like a balm for their tired and dirt-stained bodies. In spite of the scorching sun, they allowed themselves to relax and enjoy the natural beauty around them, while water droplets reflected the colors of the rainbow. There was no need to undress, as the sun's heat would dry them quickly. Thus, they remained in cleaned themselves, they felt the lightness and freedom that nature provided. They could feel the energy of life pulsating in every tree, the water, enjoying the moment of peace and tranquility.

The soothing sound of water and the pure forest air enveloped them, creating a peaceful and tranquil environment. While they cleaned themselves, they felt the lightness and freedom that nature provided. They could feel the energy of life pulsating in every tree, every stone, every water droplet. After a few minutes, they got out of the water, feeling renewed and ready to continue their journey.

"This place is truly magical," Maisa whispered as she got out of the water.

The feeling she felt now was as if she had been embraced by nature itself. She could feel the connection with the environment around her as if she were part of it. The vibrant colors of the flowers, the gentle sound of the waterfall, and the fresh scent of the forest all combined in a unique and invigorating experience. The sense of peace and harmony emanating from this magical place was unparalleled.

Julia smiled in agreement and said, "Indeed, this place is amazing."

As soon as Amon and the girls left the area, a sense of danger hung in the air. Soon after, terrifying creatures emerged from the dense forest, their sharp fangs shining as they reflected the sunlight. The hungry eyes of the beasts were drawn to the bodies of the giants left at the edge of the waterfall, making them even more agitated.

A deafening roar echoed through the forest, announcing the beginning of the feast. The creatures advanced with voracity, tearing through the thick skin of the giants with their long, sharp claws. Their hunger seemed to increase with each bite, and the sound of their teeth crunching bones and flesh could be heard from a distance, echoing through the valley. The sight was terrifying, but for these carnivorous beasts, it was just another meal.

After hours of walking, the grandeur of this planet was revealed before their eyes. The vastness of the almost unchanged scenery left them disoriented as if they were wandering through an infinite desert. However, the presence of singularities such as crystal-clear lakes, majestic trees, and exotic plants was what made them aware of the geographical change.

Suddenly, Barbara broke the silence. "Well... we have indeed distanced ourselves considerably from the floating city, but so far we have not encountered any intelligent civilization, only some wild creatures and animals."

With a mischievous laugh and a touch of sarcasm in her voice, Ariel spoke slowly, adding a certain charm to her words, "Fufu~ Although it's true, our gains so far... are not bad, wouldn't you agree?"

Hearing this, Barbara blushed slightly, recalling what had happened a few hours ago... While alone with Amon, she had kissed him and things had heated up a bit... It was at that moment that she realized Ariel had witnessed everything, and despite having been bold earlier, she felt embarrassed.

Although Ariel did not say anything explicit, Barbara felt that she was insinuating something by speaking that way. However, Maisa, Julia, and Mabel seemed not to understand, which made them look at Barbara strangely when they noticed her blushing reaction.

Barbara took a deep breath and softened her embarrassment, answering simply and directly, "Oh, I think you're right."

Ariel was even more intrigued by Barbara's response and how she was able to control her embarrassment so easily. A playful smile appeared on her slightly reddened lips as she thought to herself, 'Hehe... she seems to be better at controlling her emotions since she and Amon had some "fireworks"... That's interesting~'

Ariel had already noticed these changes starting in Barbara before, but still thought she would be able to provoke her more easily. However, the fact that Barbara was able to recover so quickly, even in compromising situations such as when Ariel caught her in an intimate moment with Amon, left Ariel a little surprised.

Ariel looked at Maisa and Julia with a devilish smile curling on her lips, sending shivers down their spines as they anticipated that Ariel had some ideas in mind to tease them. Maisa and Julia went up to Amon and held onto his arm as if seeking refuge in doing so.

"Are you two hurt?" Barbara's melodious words evoked a flash of nostalgia in Maisa and Julia's memories. Although it was Barbara who uttered them this time with a playful tone in her voice, these same words had been spoken by Amon in the past.

Julia looked at Barbara and a smile spread across her lips. "You still remember..."

Barbara smiled back. "Of course, how could I forget?"

Julia nodded, feeling that even after years, that phrase would still be etched in her memory.

Amon smiled nostalgically, recalling the time when he barely knew how to interact with other people, especially with girls. At first, he hardly noticed their subtle advances...

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed through the forest, interrupting Amon and the girls' thoughts. They quickly realized it was something dangerous and Amon shouted, "Get in position!"

The sounds of animal footsteps were approaching, announcing the arrival of at least a dozen wild beasts. The girls became tense and ready for what was to come.

That was when the creatures emerged from the shadows of the forest with sharp fangs and hungry eyes, staring at Amon and the girls with an insatiable hunger. They were terrible creatures, with bodies covered in black fur and sharp claws capable of tearing the skin off a man with ease.

Amon and the girls had already grabbed their weapons and were on alert, ready to fight at any moment. The tension was palpable as they prepared to face the wild beasts that were approaching closer and closer.
