I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 282 Thunderstorm Approaching Ahead

Having lived through a lifetime, Lezhi, who is already familiar with all sorts of tricks, sees through them but doesn't say anything. Ah, that's the good thing about youth—you can only grow by stepping into countless pitfalls!

On the surface, they seemed quite relaxed, but in reality, the valley had already experienced several rounds of earthquakes, each stronger than the last, and the next, even larger tremor could occur at any moment. Time was of the essence, so the team quickly set off in an orderly manner according to the commander's plan.

Because of the large number of members in the group, the birds and beasts were inevitably a little flustered at first, but with the efforts of all the tree spirits, although it was difficult, they at least began to move.

The lark, responsible for bringing up the rear, once again used its wings to swat a bird or beast that had strayed off course back into the group. After looking around, its focused and cautious demeanor made it seem very reliable.

The birds and beasts that were caught in the gaze felt a chill run down their spines, and flew even more intently.

Compared to the brook, which at least appears quite dedicated, the fluffy bird is much more leisurely. Birds and animals naturally have a wide field of vision, allowing it to take in its surroundings without much effort.

Therefore, apart from the furball itself, no one knows how wide its vigilance range is. It seems to be handling things with ease, but in reality, it is because it is very confident in its abilities and is sure that it can react in time to any unexpected events.

Maoqiu noticed Fanle Bird's deliberate display and scoffed inwardly.

It had long suspected Fanle Bird's little scheme, but as always, as long as it didn't dance in front of it and steal Lezhi's attention, Maoqiu said it couldn't be bothered to pay any attention.

Whether these birds and beasts would be incorporated into the Spirit Feather Clan, or whether it would only be a temporary cooperation and then no longer be in contact, was of no concern to Maoqiu.

Its biggest worry right now is that its previous plan to send the chick away has failed. But it doesn't matter. If it doesn't work once, it will try again. It will always find an opportunity. Until then, let that little brat be smug for a while longer.

Unaware that it had escaped a disaster, the fledgling peeked out from the bundle on Lezhi's belly. Its body was now covered in downy feathers, and it was no longer the little monster with fleshy skin. When Lezhi held it in his arms, it was like holding a plush toy.

"Chi chi chi~"

"What's wrong? Are you hungry?"

"Chi chi chi~"

Seeing that the chick swallowed the food that was fed to it and then refused to eat any more, Lezhi guessed that it might not be hungry, but rather wanted to say something.

However, because the baby bird's babbling was so difficult to understand, Lezhi couldn't hear it clearly. She only vaguely heard the baby bird seem to be saying what it wanted.

Seeing that its mother hadn't understood, the fledgling wasn't annoyed. It simply stared at the gradually gathering clouds in the distance with its tiny black eyes, a hint of anticipation in them.

Even if Lezhi understood what the fledgling said, he still wouldn't know what it wanted, because the fledgling said, "Sparkling, I want sparkling~"

They said they wanted something sparkly, but their eyes were fixed on the clouds...

A strange light flashed in the eyes of the fledgling black bean. Young birds always have many strange ideas. Lezhi didn't make things difficult for herself. If she couldn't understand, she couldn't understand. Maybe the fledgling was just entertaining itself.

On the contrary, Lei Xiu, who was not far away, although he did not hear the conversation between Le Zhi and the fledgling, he keenly caught the direction in which the fledgling's eyes were fixed.

Thick clouds came into view in the distance, and Lei Xiu's heart sank.

In just a short while, the layers of clouds had piled up to a considerable thickness. Because of the cloud cover, that area was visibly darker than other areas. Coupled with the earth shaking below, even just looking at it from afar was enough to inspire awe, and it felt as if even the air was much thinner.

To make matters worse, the clouds weren't content to stay in one spot; they were spreading outwards at a visible speed. The route the Hui people had to take was precisely where the clouds were headed next.

Without Lei Xiu specifically reminding him, Le Shan, the leader, also noticed the situation. Due to the tacit understanding cultivated over a long period of time, the guards hardly needed to communicate with each other in words. With just a quick movement, the team members following closely behind Le Shan immediately adjusted their posture and quickly caught up.

Compared to the strict discipline of the Spirit Feather warriors, the birds and beasts were much more free-spirited. Fortunately, with Red Flame and Egg Yolk leading the way, and given that birds and beasts are naturally much faster and more resilient than tree spirits, the group quickly regained its stable formation and continued to advance rapidly after a brief moment of laxity.

Even though Leshan reacted so quickly, natural disasters always seem to strike without reason.

One second the sky is clear and smiling at you, the next second dark clouds are gathering, as if they are about to destroy everything in darkness.

The light disappeared in just a few breaths. When the team, who were flying with their heads down, realized that the surroundings had suddenly darkened, they looked back and found that the clouds had completely occupied the sky, and not a single ray of light could penetrate it.

The sounds of clouds colliding with each other gradually became clearer, and suddenly everyone realized that darkness was not the biggest crisis they were facing.

The real danger lies in the unpredictable and ever-present thunderstorms.

As intelligent beings, the tree spirits certainly have a sense of awe towards thunderstorms. Apart from the madmen of the Thunder Clan, the others will avoid them if they can. However, it's not that they are terrified when they actually encounter them.

Especially since those present were all battle-hardened warriors. You should know that they had all undergone professional training, and their tribe even had a special course to teach them various methods of properly avoiding thunderstorms.

Furthermore, the Thunder Clan has been testing the waters with their own bodies. They've been courting death for so many years, and we've never heard of any of their members dying from being struck by a thunderstorm. Therefore, the clan has conducted special research and come to the conclusion that the Tree Spirit Clan's physique is naturally more resistant to thunderstorms.

In contrast, the Zerg and the birds and beasts are not as capable.

Humans are afraid because of the unknown. When you truly understand the reality beneath the surface of fear and come up with a solution, much of the fear will dissipate.

Therefore, upon discovering that a thunderstorm was about to break out, although the Spirit Feather warriors looked displeased, they remained relatively calm. Even when lightning flashed before their eyes and thunder roared in their ears, they only quickly assessed whether they needed to deviate from their flight direction, without changing their flight posture.

Birds and beasts are not so fortunate. If the disappearance of daylight is a disaster for many diurnal birds and beasts, then thunderstorms are a nightmare for all of them.

Instinct tells them that they are helpless against this attack from the sky and can only try their best to dodge it; there is no other way.

Many of the birds and beasts present had even witnessed their own kind or insectoids being struck by lightning and left barely alive.

If we really want to talk about it, perhaps the psychological impact of thunderstorms on birds and beasts is, in some ways, greater than the shadow itself. After all, being attacked by a shadow at least won't kill you on the spot, although the pain is prolonged and lingering.

Thunderstorms are different. If a creature is hit head-on by a thunderstorm, very few can escape. Even if it is lucky enough to survive, the unfortunate creature will not live for long, as the damage caused by a thunderstorm to the body is irreversible.

Therefore, when the rumble of thunder sounded, the previously calm flock of birds and beasts began to go out of control for the first time. Several birds and beasts subconsciously stopped moving forward, and stood frozen in place, their eyes filled with terror.

Many birds and beasts, overwhelmed by panic, ran amok without realizing it, and in an instant, the flock was thrown into chaos.
