"Ah, where's my watermelon?
"
nLooking at the messy watermelon shed, Mcgee was dumbfounded.
n
"Who did it?
"
nHearing Mcgee's shock, the Spider Queen and little Spirit Fox ran over, thinking they could consume big watermelons again.
nBut seeing the big watermelon disappear in front of them, the two beasts were stunned.
n
"Ah! Where are my watermelons?
" The little Spirit Fox widened her eyes.
nThe Spider Queen was also stunned, looking around with seven or eight eyes.
nAt this time, Mcgee also recovered and looked at the Spider Queen and the little Spirit Fox.
nThere was no other beast here. Mcgee could guarantee this.
nBecause he would go on patrol every day to check if there were any traces of beasts coming.
nIn addition, there was the Spider Queen's spider web defense outside. Logically speaking, it should be impossible for a beast to break through his defenses.
nCould it be the little Spirit Fox and the Spider Queen?
nBut this thought existed in Mcgee's mind for a second before it was dismissed.
nThe little Spirit Fox had been following him all this time and had no time to commit such crimes.
nMoreover, he doted on his first beast very much, so naturally, he would not be stingy with it.
nIt also knew that, so it wanted to eat, there was no need to sneak.
nAnd the Spider Queen had no appetite for watermelons.
nAlthough she also ate, it was far from reaching the point of greed.
nBut who was it?
nMcgee frowned.
nThen he slowly walked up.
nThe watermelon shed was badly damaged.
nIt could be seen that the other party seemed to have picked it with great difficulty.
nSuddenly...
nMcgee found something unusual.
nOn the path in the watermelon shed, there were a few rows of shallow footprints.
nMcgee squatted down. The footprints were triangular.
nIt was definitely not human.
nAnd the feet of the little Spirit Fox and the Spider Queen, one was a five-clawed one, and the other was a needle-like footprint. So, naturally, it was neither of them.
nAnd the feet of the Steel Fairy were similar to humans but also not triangular.
n
"Could it be that a beast really came in?
"
nMcgee voiced his guess.
nThen he looked at the little Spirit Fox.
nThe little Spirit Fox also climbed down and kept pulling. Finally, after looking for a while, she said,
"This footprint is indeed from a beast, and there is also the smell of a beast in the air.
"
nThe Spider Queen also nodded.
nHis guess was confirmed. Mcgee nodded and continued to search for clues.
nThe watermelon in the field was not cut off.
nMcgee found a second clue.
nIt should have been bitten off. Unfortunately, the teeth were not big, and it took a lot of biting to succeed.
nIt seemed that this beast was not big.
nBut how did it avoid the surveillance of the Spider Queen?
nIf it could easily bypass the Spider Queen's vigilance and get inside, would that not mean that its defense was useless?
nThinking of this, Mcgee frowned.
nHe suddenly thought that the problem now was not the watermelon.
nIf he could not find this beast, it was very likely that his own safety was a problem.
nBecause it could stealthily steal so many watermelons without being discovered if it wanted to kill people, who could resist the beast present?
nIt seemed that he had to find this beast quickly.
nMcgee looked around, then instructed the two beasts to start looking.
nBut after searching for a long time, Mcgee still could not find it.
nIt was as if the beast had never been here.
nJust as Mcgee was about to bring the little Spirit Fox outside to look for it.
nSuddenly, there was movement in the sweet potato field.
nMcgee and the little Spirit Fox hurriedly looked over.
nThey saw that the soil buried with the sweet potato was slowly lifted, and then a small sweet potato was dug out and quickly disappeared.
nJust when Mcgee thought that the other party had left, the other party committed another crime, but like before, he still could not see what kind of creature it was!
nMcgee looked at the little Spirit Fox and the Spider Queen and whispered,
"Invisibility?
"
nThe two beasts nodded.
n
"This is troublesome!
"
nMcgee frowned.
nAt the moment, he could only catch the other party's figure through the sweet potatoes. Once it was alarmed, it would definitely escape quickly. By then, it would be as difficult as climbing up to the sky to find it.
nAt this time, the little Spirit Fox was ready to use magic to kill the beast directly.
nSensing the little Spirit Fox's actions, Mcgee hurriedly stopped it.
n
"Why don't you kill it?
" The little Spirit Fox asked in confusion.
nMcgee shook his head and replied in a low voice,
"If you can't hit it and let it escape successfully, it will be difficult for us to catch it again!
"
nThe little Spirit Fox was not stupid. It nodded and obediently put away its flames.
nAt this time, Mcgee also thought of a way to catch the thief.
nIt seemed that he had to use the previous method of catching the Steel Fairy.
nBut why did the system prompt not appear?
nCould it be that there was a problem?
nMcgee frowned. The system still did not prompt him.
nSo Mcgee was not prepared to wait.
nGod knows how long this invisible beast would stay. But, if he let it go, Mcgee would want to cry!
nSo Mcgee told the Spider Queen his strategy.
nThe Spider Queen nodded and then slowly left.
nSoon, it found a few of its cubs and made a big spider web according to Mcgee's instructions.
nTo ensure the sturdiness of the spider web, it specially prepared two layers.
nWhen it was ready, it brought a few small spiders and moved toward the invisible creature.
nAfter arriving at the predetermined position, Mcgee nodded to the Spider Queen.
nThen, with a hand gesture, he had the four children of the Spider Queen drag the spider web and start to surround the invisible beast.
nBut when the small spider was dragging the web, it unexpectedly made a noise.
nAt this time, everyone revealed nervous expressions.
nMcgee quickly stretched out his hand to signal the little spider to stop.
nAfter stopping, everyone did not make any movements and slowly waited.
nAt this time, a gust of wind blew, startling the sweet potato leaves on the ground to rustle.
nThe invisible beast mistook the sound for the wind.
nTherefore, it was relieved a lot, and once again picked up the sweet potato.
nSeeing the invisible beast move again, Mcgee, the little Fox Spirit, and the Spider Queen let out a sigh of relief.
nThen, they signaled the Spider Queen to continue standing.
nAfter the accident last time, they were very careful. Soon, the four spiders were positioned.
nWith Mcgee's order, the big spider jumped up and jumped down from the invisible monster. There was a white spider web above its head. As the Spider Queen landed, the spider web instantly covered the entire sweet potato field.
nAfter the Spider Queen landed, the four small spiders quickly pressed down on the four corners.
nFeeling the sudden attack, the invisible monster instantly panicked. It did not look in the direction and ran away.
nIt was very nervous as it ran and lost things.
nAt this time, the little Spirit Fox moved.
nIt found the right time to jump and instantly pressed the invisible monster down.
nThe monster that was pressed down squeaked loudly, but it could not move at all.
nMcgee came to the front and looked at the monster that had already shown itself. He frowned and said,
"It's actually a beast tamed by an owner?
"
n...
