Lin Fan had no idea what this thing was, but he could feel an intense feeling coming from it.

Whatever was the cause of these fluctuations really wanted to come out of the Storage Ring.

So Lin Fan sent his spiritual sense inside to see what it was.

He was surprised to find that it was a golden ball that had been inactive for a long time. This was a golden ball that had wings that were almost transparent that seemed to be flying around in his Storage Ring.

That was what was causing these strong fluctuations.

But he hesitated in letting this thing out.

After all, it was clear that this snitch was agitated by something and he didn't want it outside while he was in a place like this.

If it were to cause a commotion, then all of their attention would immediately fall onto him and he would be caught by the Control Toad.

That was the last thing that he could allow to happen.

So Lin Fan tried doing all that he could to calm this snitch down, but it just wouldn't settle no matter what he did. It seemed like it was determined to get out of the Storage Ring.

It seemed like there was something outside that was really riling it up.

At this point, there were even traces of spiritual energy leaking out of the Storage Ring.

This was not something that he could stop, so he knew that it was only a matter of time before he was discovered because of it. He had no choice but to let the snitch out of his Storage Ring.

But of course, he would only let it out on his conditions.

With a thought, the snitch appeared in his hand, but his hand had been tightly closed so that it wouldn't be able to move an inch. At the same time, with his hand tightly closed like this, he was able to suppress the spiritual energy that was coming from the snitch.

So no matter what it did now, it wouldn't be able to cause a mess.

However, he could feel it moving in his hand.

It was moving even more intensely than when it was in the Storage Ring, almost as if there was something here that was inciting it. It was as if it was sensing something that…seemed to enrage it.

That was what Lin Fan was feeling from the snitch.

Lin Fan brought his hand with the snitch up to his face and whispered, "You can understand me, can't you?"

The snitch suddenly stopped moving before trembling once as if it was saying yes.

Lin Fan couldn't help being caught off guard when he felt this.

He had thought that this was just an artifact that had been created by Feng Yu for the test, but now it seemed like that wasn't the case. With how it reacted, it seemed that this was some kind of artifact that had a consciousness…

He had never heard of something like this before…

Well, no, he had.

His sword Gramr was an example of that, but it wasn't a cultivation world item. Gramr was more of a magic item from the magic continent, so it couldn't be considered an item from this cultivation continent.

But then again, did a snitch seem like something from the cultivation continent?

No matter how he looked at it, it seemed more likely that this was something from the magic continent.

After all, a snitch was from a certain series that was all about magic.

Since Feng Yu was most likely a transmigrator, it made sense that he would have been interested in the magic continent and had gone there before. This snitch should be something that Feng Yu had brought back from there.

After taking some time to gather his thoughts, Lin Fan brought his hand forward again to say, "If you can understand me, I want you to come to an agreement with me."

He waited for the snitch to respond and there was a single shake just like before.

It seemed that it was willing to listen to him at the very least.

Lin Fan couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief when he felt this.

He had thought that it would be a pain to deal with this snitch, but now it seemed like it would be easy. After all, as long as it was able to communicate, then he would be able to reach an understanding with it.

Lin Fan gathered his thoughts again before saying, "It's very simple, I don't know what you're agitated by, but there's danger all around us right now. I need you to stay quiet for now until we're out of danger. Once we are out of danger, I will help you find whatever it is that has gotten you this riled up. Alright?"

Lin Fan felt that he was being very reasonable with this compromise, but he was still worried that the snitch wouldn't agree to it.

But to his surprise, the snitch suddenly shook to show that it understood and would agree to this.

He had thought that he would need to do a bit of convincing to get this snitch to go along with his suggestion, but it seemed that it was very willing.

Lin Fan couldn't help hesitating since he felt that the snitch had agreed too readily. It almost felt like it was too easy…

But he couldn't just doubt the snitch for too long or it would be a bad show of faith.

It would show that he didn't trust it and that was no way to build a proper relationship.

So after a moment of hesitation, he opened his hand and let the snitch out.

The snitch just laid there in his hand for a bit before suddenly unveiling its wings.

It flapped it a few times before floating up in front of his face.

It seemed like it was done with the freakout that it was having earlier and was ready to listen to his orders.

Lin Fan patted his chest and let out a sigh of relief when he saw this.

But the moment that he did this…the snitch suddenly flew into the cave.

It seemed that it had been waiting for this moment where he let his guard down to fly into the cave.

When he saw it flying into the cave, Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile of regret…

He regretted that he thought he would be able to trust this thing…after all, it was nothing more than a sentient magic item. It wasn't as if he was close to it, so he shouldn't have trusted it in the first place.

The only thing that he could do now was find a way to run.

Since it had run in alone, it would draw all of the attention while he ran.

As for fighting the Control Toad and its puppets, he completely gave up that idea right now. Once he lost the element of surprise, it was certain that he would lose this battle.

So he didn't even think about fighting for a single second.

Lin Fan did however look forward again to see how the snitch was distracting the Control Toad and its puppets. But when he saw what was happening inside of the cave, he couldn't help being shocked.

That was because even in his wildest dreams, he never would have expected to see what he was currently seeing.

The snitch was flying around the room, flying over each of the puppets standing there.

As it did, it released a golden powder that fell onto these puppets.

Then the moment that the golden powder fell onto the puppets, they suddenly fell to the ground convulsing. It was as if there was something happening inside of them that was causing them to act this way.

When he looked closely, Lin Fan could see the veins on the bodies of these puppets popping out. There seemed to be something black that was crawling under the veins of these puppets, like some kind of black liquid.

Finally, it came to an end when one of two things happened.

Either these veins popped and black liquid spurted out all over the place, or there were these black worms that came out of the skin of these puppets.

Either way, it seemed that they broke free of the control of the Control Toad, though one way was clearly much more dangerous than the other.

For those that suffered the first result, it was hard to imagine that they were still alive…

For those that suffered the second result, they were most likely alive even though they weren't moving. It seemed like they had fallen unconscious after the agony of getting the worms chased out of them by this golden powder.

Lin Fan just watched on in shock as he couldn't believe what was happening.

But he finally understood why the snitch was so agitated.

It was most likely because it had sensed its mortal foe and wanted to take it down.

As for what that mortal foe was…it seemed like it was this Control Toad and the Control Worms that it used.

As he watched all of this, Lin Fan couldn't help thinking of what the system had told him.

He already had the 'means' to take down this Control Toad, it was just that he had no idea what it was.

It was the snitch that the system was referring to.

It was just a good thing that he had picked this up before this Control Toad had appeared.

It seemed like there was nothing that was done for no reason in this Minor World.
