Chapter 145:
“What? An Astral Manticore? Where did you find it?”
Just as Murphy was about to set out on his daily territory patrol, he received a bead communication from Tris, but the content left him bewildered.
He was aware that there were such dangerous creatures as Astral Manticores roaming in his city, but he had already killed the mother manticore, and its venomous tail stingers were still lying in his spirit bag. According to Adele, they were suitable for making into throwing daggers, but since the Crimson Citadel currently had no capable blacksmiths, Murphy could only keep them for the time being.
But where did this little manticore come from now?
Damn!
Could it be that old Finoch’s ominous words had come true, and that mother manticore had actually laid eggs in the city, which have now hatched?
This would be a dire situation.
There were already enough dangerous and troublesome things in this city, no need for more troubles!
“How would I know where your warriors captured this little manticore? Its eyes have just opened.”
