The Sand Demon Worm sensed the two of them escaping, but didn't care.

It opened its monstrous jaws wide at the top, swayed its body, and gnawed towards the campfire with a gust of fishy wind.

There were roasted mushrooms that Qiao Yang had just thrown down, which had been smoked and blackened at this time, exuding a rich aroma.

The place where the roasted mushroom was located was bitten out of a large pit by the sand demon earthworm, the muscles of the head squirmed, and the burning fire did not seem to do any harm to it, and it swallowed it directly, along with the soil and firewood.

Satisfied with the food that attracted it, it shuddered and burrowed back into the hole that had broken through the ground.

After another wave of shaking, the valley returned to calm.

Qiao Yang and Gu Mier ran wildly for hundreds of meters, and they were relieved to see that the terrifying demon beast behind them did not chase after them.

Gu Mier held on to a tree trunk, panting, her legs were weak, and she said with some palpitations: "What was that just now?"

She felt a powerful aura, and it was full of malice, such an energy fluctuation was by no means an ordinary team level demon beast.

Qiao Yang also tried to calm his beating heart, his eyes met Gu Mier, he smiled bitterly, and said, "General-level demon beast." ”

This was the highest-level wild demon beast he had ever seen so far.

It's not domesticated by demon tamers, there are contract restrictions, but wild monsters that really harbor malice towards humans.

Gu Mier's face turned pale, Qiao Yang's words were consistent with the result she expected, but she still felt extremely frightened when she heard it with her own ears.

"It's not that ...... Have all the demon beasts above the rank level in the valley been killed, how can they be ......?"

"I don't know. Qiao Yang shook his head, paused for a moment, and then said, "But I have three conjectures now. ”

"You say. Gumiel leaned against the big tree behind him and sat down regardless of his image.

"First, this monster beast just burst out of the ground, so it's likely that it was also underground when the school cleared the valley and was not detected. ”

"There is this possibility, some demon beasts are naturally good at concealment, even if they are one or two levels higher than it, they may not be able to find their traces. ”

Gu Mier, who calmed down, also thought about it, and agreed with Qiao Yang's idea, and then continued: "And I heard that there was an accident in the jurisdiction near Jincheng, and the place originally used for military training was also affected, so I temporarily chose to build a site here, and there was something missing in a hurry, it is very likely!"

"How do you know?"

Qiao Yang glanced at her suspiciously, he had only seen it on some sporadic news recently, saying that the area under Jincheng Township was not peaceful, but he did not report it in detail.

I thought that a lot of news was suppressed by the government, and he didn't want the people nearby to cause panic, but he didn't expect that it was also involved with Jinda.

Gu Mier didn't care, and replied, "Daddy told me before I came to Jincheng, tell me to be careful when I go to the wild area. ”

Qiao Yang nodded, didn't dwell on this issue, and continued to analyze the current situation.

"The second possibility is that the school did clean up this area, but this monster beast advanced by chance after the school cleaned it up and before we arrived. ”

"Could it be such a coincidence......" Gumiel was clearly not convinced.

"Yes. I've been to the Secret Realm once before with the Demon Trainer Guild, and it's just a small secret realm that restricts entry to the soldier level and below. But after we entered, a demon beast in the secret realm advanced. ”

"Huh?" Gumiel's mouth was wide open and his expression was exaggerated.

Qiao Yang lowered his head and sighed, "So the probability of this is very small, but it is also possible." ”

"But the demonic beast's aura fluctuated...... It doesn't look like it's just advanced, so why ......?"

"You're right, it's already in the late stage of the general's rank. Do you remember the Potions Club student in the final of the beast breeding competition? In the world of monsters, there are so many strange things that nothing is impossible. Qiao Yang asked rhetorically.

"Guan Yueming?" Gu Mier had a good memory, and quickly searched for the corresponding character in his mind.

His potion directly made the earth-shaking dog successfully promoted, and he also reached the peak of the team's main level by the way. ”

Gumiel was silent, something she had also witnessed with her own eyes, and there was no way to refute it.

"As for the third possibility, I think it's also a test for the school. ”

"Test?"

"Hmm. Qiao Yang looked in the direction where the two were fleeing, his eyes were not focused, and his expression was calm.

"I found that the school likes to use this way to test the level of students, do you remember the first round of psychological testing?"

"The big banyan tree?"

"Yes, it seems to be a strong team in the late stage, but because it is a plant demon beast, it limits its pursuit ability, as long as it runs out of the attack range, it can be said that there is no threat. ”

"Yes~" Gu Mier's eyes lit up, "This general-level demon beast is also menacing, but it doesn't pose any substantial threat to us." ”

Qiao Yang turned his head, with a teachable look, and said: "And the wild area is full of dangers, in order to simulate this environment full of variables, it is not impossible for the school to release a general-level demon beast after notifying in advance that there is only a team level." ”

Gu Mi'er nodded like pounding garlic for a while, and said to Qiao Yang with a slightly funny look of adoration: "Then you say, what should we do next!"

"Go ahead and pinch the bracelet. Qiao Yang didn't think about it, and replied directly.

"Ahh

Qiao Yang glanced at her with disgust and explained: "The current three situations are just speculation, if it is the last one, it is easy to say, if it is the first two, then the situation is not good." ”

"At the moment, the signal has been blocked, the communicator is useless, and the only way to contact the school teacher is to smash the bracelet. ”

"In the case that it can't be ruled out that this is just a test, of course, you can't pinch yourself, so let's continue to find a lonely classmate to bully it. ”

Qiao Yang said his next plan in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner.

In the military training base, several teachers are discussing how to deal with the more than 20 students whose bracelets were broken and forcibly "eliminated", whether to issue another bracelet for them to continue their training, or to dismiss them first.

No one noticed the thrilling encounter that the two-person team had just encountered in the surveillance video.

The students outside the prefabricated room were all in a state of apprehension, like prisoners being escorted to court, bowing their heads and waiting for the verdict to be announced.

"If I can go back, I promise to kill the dog man and woman!"

A male classmate with a grim look spat and gritted his teeth quietly.

"It's okay to snatch the food, I don't think the skills are as good as others, but it's too much to pinch the bracelet!"

Another woman in a silk suit also had a bad face.
