It is said that pangolins are timid, and Wang Tao has seen one this time.

It was a fourth-level mutant beast, but it still ran away the moment it saw the golden eagle. The golden eagle was only a fourth-level beast, and it didn't even have the courage to face it. This really broadened Wang Tao's horizons.

And it has to be said that this mutated pangolin runs quite fast. After turning itself into a ball, it rolled around in the forest, and the golden eagle couldn't catch up with it for a while.

Seeing this, Wang Tao stomped on the golden eagle and flew towards the mutant pangolin like a cannonball.

He was not familiar with the place, and if the pangolin really ran away, all his efforts would be in vain, so he decided to do it himself.

Wang Tao’s long-term flying ability is not as good as that of the golden eagle, but his short-term explosive power is much stronger than that of the golden eagle, and he caught up with the pangolin in an instant.

Although the pangolin was curled up, it could sense changes in the outside world. After feeling the breath of Wang Tao, it was suddenly frightened and rolled even faster.

If it fled after seeing the golden eagle, it felt that it was evenly matched with the golden eagle, and it retreated strategically for safety. Then, after seeing Wang Tao, it fled because it was really afraid of death! Because Wang Tao's fifth-level aura made it know that it had no chance of winning!
But it certainly couldn't outrun Wang Tao, and was even humiliated by Wang Tao's kick towards the golden eagle. The golden eagle grabbed the pangolin with its steel-like claws and flew into the sky. If it flew high in the sky and then dropped it, even if the pangolin was a fourth-level pangolin, it would definitely die!

The pangolin could obviously foresee its own fate, so it finally stopped being a ball and twisted its body madly, trying to break free from the golden eagle's claws. If it fell down now, it would at most get a little hurt, which it could accept.

After all, the pangolin is also a fourth-level lord, the same level as the golden eagle. The golden eagle cannot completely suppress it. Just when it is about to break free, Wang Tao flies over.

The fifth-order terrifying aura attacked the pangolin, and the pangolin froze instantly, feeling extremely desperate. It knew that it was completely finished this time, and it just depended on when the golden eagle would abandon it...

But at this moment, a voice that it could understand suddenly sounded in its mind.

"Submit, or die."

The pangolin's eyes suddenly widened, and then it looked at the man hovering next to it. This human could actually communicate with it!
Although it was unclear how this human did it, the pangolin nodded frantically to show that it was willing to submit.

"Wouldn't it be better if you surrendered earlier?"

Wang Tao looked at the pangolin with a smile. This pangolin has a decent IQ and can communicate.

The pangolin felt aggrieved because this person had never asked it before!

Wang Tao ordered the golden eagle to land. After a while, the pangolin finally stepped on the familiar land again. At this moment, it instinctively wanted to curl up into a ball and continue to run away, but reason stopped it. After all, it had just promised to surrender to that terrifying fifth-level human. If it ran away now, it was sure that the human would definitely kill it!

"very good!"

Seeing that the pangolin was trembling in front of him but did not run away, Wang Tao nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the attributes of the mutant pangolin again.

[Health Volume: 200000/200000]

[Blue amount: 200000/200000]

[Level: Level 4·Lord]

[Awakening: Earthwalker]

[Earthwalker: When underground, all basic attributes are improved comprehensively]

The size of this mutant pangolin is not small, as big as a calf, but its health is not high. Although its awakening can comprehensively enhance its own attributes, it must be underground and has certain limitations... So overall, its combat effectiveness is average.

Wang Tao was a little curious. Why didn't it burrow into the ground when it escaped just now? It must have the ability to burrow into the ground. If it had burrowed into the ground, Wang Tao might not be able to do anything about it.

After some communication, Wang Tao finally understood the reason. It was not that it did not want to, but that it could not. It was not digging very fast, at least it could not dig very deep before being caught, so it had to run first.

As long as it runs a certain distance and starts digging a hole, as long as it can dig it out before the golden eagle arrives, it can run away completely this time, but unfortunately there is still Wang Tao...

"Dig a hole for me to see."

At Wang Tao's command, the pangolin immediately waved its front paws and began digging into the ground.

"Huh? That's not too slow!"

Wang Tao originally thought that its digging speed was really slow, but after actually watching it, he realized that it was so slow in relative terms. Compared with the flying speed of the golden eagle, its digging speed was indeed slow, but if compared with the general third-level mutant beast, its digging speed might be faster than the mutant beast's running speed.

Of course, this is also related to the soft soil here, but no matter what, the speed at which it dug the hole has surprised Wang Tao.

"Follow me from now on. I will provide you with food, shelter and security. All you have to do is help me dig a hole."

Wang Tao patted the pangolin's head and said.

Hearing this, the pangolin was confused. Digging holes was a very common ability for it, just like running for other animals. Did this fifth-level human catch it just to make it dig holes? This was too simple...

Pangolin expressed his doubts to Wang Tao, and Wang Tao just smiled.

"The place I ask you to dig may not be easy to dig, and it's very deep. This task may not be difficult for you, but it is definitely not simple... I will take you there and you will understand."

Wang Tao signaled the pangolin to jump onto the golden eagle's back, and then flew with it to the previous cave.

"It's right here. Can you dig down?"

There are a lot of rocks in the cave, and digging is indeed not as easy as other things, but the pangolin still said it is no problem. If it can even overcome these rocks, then what kind of pangolin is it?

"Since you think it's okay, then start digging. I will also keep my promise and prepare some food for you first. What do you usually eat?"

Wang Tao knew that pangolins eat termites, but he didn't know where to find them. He knew that pangolins would definitely not eat only one thing, especially if they had mutated, otherwise they would probably starve to death.

The pangolin immediately said that it not only eats termites, but also eats all kinds of insects, including bees, honey and the like.

"Insects..."

Wang Tao frowned. Although insects have a wider range and are definitely easier to find than termites, it is not easy to get a large number of insects in such a short time. As for honey, it is easy to say. There is honey at the Red Maple Base. Wang Tao saw that there are beekeepers there who raise a lot of bees... At this time, the pangolin suddenly licked its long and thin tongue, and then told Wang Tao that it knew where there were insect nests, and they were mutant insects. But those insects were in groups, and it could do nothing to them.

"Okay, then you just keep digging, I'll get you some food!"

Wang Tao nodded, then left with the golden eagle and the others, leaving only the pangolin here.

Seeing Wang Tao and the others leave, the pangolin's little eyes suddenly turned. If it escaped at this time, wouldn't it be able to regain its freedom?

It was somewhat tempted, but when it thought of Wang Tao's terrifying strength, it became a little scared. If it was caught, wouldn't it be dead?

And this person said he was going to find food for himself. If it can really provide food, then it won’t be a loss even if he loses his freedom! After all, it’s just digging a hole, which is as easy for it as walking...

In the end, Pangolin decided to wait and see if the man kept his word. If he kept his word, he would follow him. If he lied to him, as long as he didn't die, he still had a chance to escape. After all, he was digging a hole. If he really dug deep underground, even a fifth-level human would not be able to stop him from escaping!

In the sky, feeling that the pangolin's breath had not disappeared, Wang Tao immediately nodded with satisfaction.

"You're smart... Let's go find food for it!"

Wang Tao did not want to enslave the pangolins, and he did not have the means to do so. He wanted the pangolins to cooperate with him like the lightning and golden eagles and become his partners. So Wang Tao would definitely do what he promised.

Not long after, the golden eagle carried Wang Tao, Lightning and Taxue to one of the places mentioned by the pangolin.

Seeing the densely packed insects of unknown species below, Wang Tao suddenly got goose bumps.

At this time, the insects seemed to sense the golden eagle in the sky and raised their heads, making some very uncomfortable noises.

Their leader also came out, a fourth-level lord.

[Health Volume: 600000/60000]

[Blue amount: 300000/300000]

[Level: Level 4·Lord]

[Awakening: Spray poison gas]

[Poison gas spray: can spray extremely toxic gas]

Seeing the attributes of this fourth-level lord, Wang Tao knew why the pangolin couldn't take them down. Although the pangolin was covered with scales and could curl up into a ball when in danger, its high defense might not be effective against these poisonous insects.

This might be a very troublesome problem for the pangolin, but it was not a big deal for Wang Tao. He was far away and sent out two heat energy rays, instantly killing and injuring a large number of insects.

The lord made an unpleasant sound towards Wang Tao, and poison gas also sprayed out of its mouth, but the distance was too far, and it could not hurt Wang Tao at all. Wang Tao sent out two more heat energy rays, and this fourth-level lord had no ability to resist at all, and was killed by Wang Tao directly.

Once the lord died, the other insects fell into chaos. Wang Tao killed some more, but not all of them. Because he found that there were still many eggs in the nest of this poisonous insect, and it was obvious that it could continue to hatch insects. There was no need to kill them all, and they could be allowed to provide food for the pangolin for a long time!
Anyway, these insects are all very large, and the dead ones should be enough for pangolins to eat.

Wang Tao flew down, quickly collected the dead insects and spoils, and then flew back to the cave.

Outside the cave, Wang Tao found that he could no longer sense the pangolin's breath, but Lightning indicated that it was still inside, just in a deeper position.

Wang Tao went in immediately, and then he saw a small hole in the big cave that was slanted downwards. Although it was a small hole, the size of this mutant pangolin was not small, and it also considered Wang Tao, so the hole was large enough for Wang Tao to walk in.

Wang Tao was standing at the entrance of the cave. Before he could call it, he heard a rustling sound, and then saw the pangolin running out.

Wang Tao didn't waste any words and threw a large number of insects on the ground. When the pangolin saw it, his eyes lit up. It had wanted to eat these poisonous insects a long time ago, but unfortunately it couldn't beat their lord, so it had to give up. Unexpectedly, this time it finally got to eat them, and among these poisonous insects was their lord!
"Squeak~"

The pangolin immediately expressed his gratitude. Since Wang Tao kept his promise, it also kept its promise and decided to follow Wang Tao. After all, digging holes would give it food to eat, which was more comfortable than its life in the mountains!
However, the pangolin also told Wang Tao that the deeper you go, the harder it is to dig. Since it mutated, it has dug a lot of underground stones, but it has never encountered such a difficult place to dig... Of course, it rarely digs so straight underground, so it is not sure whether other places are the same.

Hearing this, Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

The more abnormal it was, the more he felt he could dig something out!
So he let the pangolin continue digging, and if it felt any danger, it should run out quickly.

Although there are no destructive creatures now, those creatures must be strong before they are promoted to destructive level. If they are really dug out, the pangolin may not be able to defeat them...

At this time, the pangolin suddenly told Wang Tao that it had some of its own kind and asked if it needed to call them over.

Although pangolins are solitary animals, they are connected after the mutation because they have become intelligent.

"Are there any of our kind? Well, go and call them over. They will be treated just like you, and I'll make sure you don't have to worry about food and drink!"

Wang Tao was immediately overjoyed. If there was only one pangolin, the speed might be a bit slow. If there were multiple pangolins, the efficiency would be doubled.

Then he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said:

"By the way, my name is Wang Tao. I'll give you a name, let's call you Xiaojia!"

"Squeak~"

The pangolin responded, then ran happily to call its own kind.

Wang Tao could feel that the pangolin had not lied to him, so he returned to the Red Maple Base and asked Han Youlin for some honey to improve the pangolin's food later.

Wang Tao returned to the cave again and waited for about three hours. Just when Wang Tao thought he had made a mistake, Xiaojia finally came back with more than a dozen pangolins of all sizes. The weakest was level two, most were level three, and two were level four. However, most were elites, and there were only three lord-level ones, including Xiaojia.

But this was enough for Wang Tao, after all, it was just digging a hole.

Wang Tao took out a lot of insects and honey and let them have a good meal. Then, without Wang Tao's instructions, Xiao Jia took the initiative to lead a group of pangolins to work in the cave. (End of this chapter)
