Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Last Straw That Broke the Camel's Burden
In just a few hours, there were suddenly six fewer people in a huge team. Five of them died tragically in front of everyone with an extremely horrific appearance. And in the team, there are also demonic beasts disguised as companions, threatening their lives at any time.
For a while, the tension and fatigue of the team gradually spread into despair. The people sat on the ground in a daze, and no one spoke. As the sky darkened, silence and silence hung over everyone's heads, making this eerie jungle even more eerie.
Xiao Ranran stood in the center of the line. She thought she should say something, but she didn't know what to say. Lin Shufan patted her shoulder and shook his head.
Xiao Ranran looked at Lin Shufan's sunken eye sockets and pursed her lips tightly. In the end, she could only sit on the ground helplessly.
From a predicament to a desperate situation, it is often only a moment. Xiao Ran curled up and hugged her knees tightly with her hands. Lin Shufan sat beside Xiao Ranran. The shoulders of the two touched lightly.
This time, Xiao Ranran didn't dodge.
"I can get out of this jungle." Xiao Ranran persuaded herself so in her heart. Although she still believes in it, it is no longer the unwavering belief that she left with everyone, and only the belief that she is alive.
Xiao Ranran didn't even dare to think about how likely it was that she could leave this forest?
At this time, Xiao Ranran needs a fulcrum that can support herself. Lu Qianfan didn't know where he was, and it seemed that the only person Xiao Ranran could rely on at the moment was Lin Shufan.
As night fell, the mysterious roar of the beast once again lingered in everyone's ears. The invisible pressure in everyone's hearts was a little heavier.
The straw that broke the camel's back did not know when it would come.
The fear in her heart made it difficult for Xiao Ranran to sleep, so she simply kept vigil around the team. She looked up, and the leaves obscured the night sky, and she couldn't see half of the light of the stars and moon.
"Roarβ"
The sudden roar of the beast made Xiao Ranran stumble. She looked into the depths of the forest and saw a hill-like figure slowly standing upright!
In the dark night, those eyes that radiated a crimson light were particularly fierce!
Xiao Ranran even forgot to breathe for a moment! He slammed the guard post on his waist and shouted, "Captain-level demonic beast!" β
A shrill whistle pierced the silence of the forest.
"What? Lieutenant level? "The people who were awakened quickly fell into a panic." Are we finally going to die? β
However, when Xiao Ran ran back to everyone in embarrassment, they saw nothing.
Lin Shufan frowned slightly. He pulled Xiao Ranran to his side and asked sharply, "Ranran, what's the matter?" β
"Captain-level Demonic Beast." Xiao Ranran breathlessly said, "Just now, I saw a captain-level demonic beast ...... near us!" β
Lin Shufan pressed Xiao Ranran's weak shoulders with both hands and said, "Ranran, calm down." β
Xiao Ranran, who had a thousand burdens on her shoulders, shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and run!" β
"Ran!" Lin Shufan stared at Xiao Ranran's eyes and said, "You calm down and look around, there's nothing here!" β
Xiao Ran was stunned. She looked around at the crowd and saw that their expressions were not panicked, but angry, as if they were denouncing a mischievous child.
Xiao Ranran looked back behind her, where were those crimson eyes? "Am I mistaken?" Xiao Ranran questioned herself. "No way, I saw that monster just now! How could a mountain-like body be an illusion? β
Lin Shufan patted Xiao Ranran's shoulder. "Don't be nervous. You're just too tired. No one noticed the hideous smile on his lips.
"That can't be an illusion!"
Lin Shufan shook his head. He straightened Xiao Ranran's messy hair, and said distressedly, "You can rest here." β
"Look over there!" Suddenly, someone pointed into the distance. "Is someone coming to our rescue?"
"It's light! It's the rescue team! They've come to our rescue! The crowd who had just been at the bottom of despair suddenly boiled.
Xiao Ranran looked in the direction of the man's finger, and sure enough, she saw a little light in the distance. The flickering light grew bigger and bigger in her eyes. In the illusory light, a figure slowly walked towards her.
"Ranran, I'm here to pick you up."
The voice was like a dreamy sound, intoxicating, making Xiao Ranran instantly unload all her defenses. She reached out to the figure in the light, longing for warmth in the halo. "Qianfan, you're finally here......"
At the moment when Xiao Ranran's fingertips were about to touch the figure in the halo, a hand suddenly pulled her back to reality from her trance!
"Ran! There's something wrong with this light! The dark yellow mecha warrior stopped in front of Xiao Ranran and said, "I'll drag this guy, you go and wake up the others." β
Xiao Ranran shook her head vigorously. She looked at the light again, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on her back! Behind that light, there was a demonic beast with hideous tentacles! If she really touched that figure just now, I'm afraid she would be swept away by the tentacles in an instant!
If it weren't for Lin Shufan's vigilance, this magical beast would definitely bring a fatal blow to this desperate team.
"Thank you." Xiao Ranran urgently summoned the Demon Armor Rain Spirit. The rain bow opened, and an arrow shot into the air. The icy rain fell quickly and landed on the faces of the students who were in a trance.
"This ...... What the hell is this......" The students who woke up from their hallucinations froze in place. The beautiful scene in front of me turned into a bubble, and when I woke up from a sweet dream, I saw that it was still a darkness of despair, which no one could accept.
"No, don't...... I'm going back! I don't want to die! β
The straw that pressed the camel came too quickly.
"Bang!" Lin Shufan was whipped in the chest by a demonic beast, and the dark yellow armor burst out with firelight. He got up from the ground, threw a grenade at the beast, and shouted, "Hurry up!" I can't stop it! β
"I'll help you!" Xiao Ranran pulled out the rain bow and shot an arrow at the demonic beast's body, but the effect was minimal. "The body is so heavy." Xiao Ranran felt that her movements were much clumsier than before, and she would feel tired just by shooting arrows with a bow.
The tentacle demonic beast seemed to notice Le Xiao Ranran, and its tentacles squirmed for a while, and it actually propped up its body! The monster opened a pair of disgusting mouths and mocked the powerless Xiao Ranran condescendingly.
Captain-level Warcraft, even the weakest Captain-level, will bring a sense of oppression that far surpasses that of non-commissioned officer-level Warcraft.
Looking at that abrupt mouth, Xiao Ranran's feet seemed to be filled with lead. A tentacle fell from the sky, but Xiao Ranran was stunned in place, unable to move.
"Roarβ"
"Ran!" At the last moment, Lin Shufan threw Xiao Ranran to the ground, barely avoiding the sharp tentacle.
Without allowing for half a minute of hesitation, Lin Shufan bounced up as fast as he could. He pulled Xiao Ranran up from the ground and said, "Hurry up!" β
"Ah......" Xiao Ranran, who was still in a trance with her head, was pulled by Lin Shufan's wrist and ran towards the depths of the forest in a panic.
Perhaps, it is the Ji people who have their own natural appearance. Or perhaps, there must be a sparse in one hundred secrets. The direction Lin Shufan chose was precisely the gathering point of the Rotten Bone Demon Monkey. And at the other end of this direction, there is precisely a rapid march.
"Thousand sails! Calm down! Tang Jie panted and grabbed Lu Qianfan and said, "Slow down!" The dimensional trap here is too complicated, and the concept of distance is stretched too long. It's getting too dark now, and if we don't pay attention, we'll get lost! And, at your current speed, our physical strength simply can't keep up! β
"How am I going to calm down! You saw it too! That's Nagarjuna's corpse! Lu Qianfan's eyes were bloodshot, and he said angrily: "They have already done it!" Do you think I can still be so laid-back? β
Lei Guiyun put his hands on his knees and said, "Boy, we know you're in a hurry!" But we've bottomed out all of our magic power now. Even if we can get there now, we will be wiped out. β
Xia Zhuoer was supported by Mu Meng and stumbled up. She panted and said, "Brother, calm down." We've been on the march for two hours now. β
Tang Jie said: "The trail here is too complicated. Xiao Ranran, they, most likely, walked around here indiscriminately, crossing a large distance through shortcuts. If we march as quickly as you do, it will be even less likely that we will catch up with them if we miss the traces they have left behind. β
Lu Qianfan gritted his teeth and hammered his fist on the tree beside him. As if he wanted to vent the anxiety in his heart, he scolded: "Is this team leader a pig's head? At this time, shouldn't it be better to hold your ground and wait for rescue? Even if there are rotten bone demon monkeys hidden in the team, they just need to gather together and not give the monster a chance to attack! What are they doing! β
"In this case, if they encounter a demonic beast, or something as troublesome as the rotten bone demon monkey, they are likely to lose their cool."
Lu Qianfan suddenly said: "On Lin Shufan's resume, he has a record of hunting demonic beasts alone, and he has led the team to face the big demonic beast group. In his experience, it shouldn't be so. β
"They've been stuck here for too many days, and anyone can lose their judgment in this situation." Mumont finally took a breath and inserted two lighting sticks on the ground. He said, "Qianfan, we have to take a break first. β
Lu Qianfan let out a long breath and forced himself to calm down. He said, "I'm sorry, I was too reckless. β
Lei Guiyun waved his hand and sat on the ground. He said: "Xiaotang, I can't see that you are not very old, and your physical strength is so good." β
Tang Jie sat on the ground embarrassed and said, "When I was a child, I went on an adventure in the mountains and forests with my father. Who knows, Lu Qianfan is a madman, running wild for so long, and his physical strength is still so abundant. β
Lu Qianfan didn't tell them that his physical ability was almost twice that of humans in this world. He said to Tang Jie: "Genius, I always feel that there is something strange in this. β
"What, do you suspect that Lin Shufan is on it?"
Lu Qianfan was just about to speak, when his eyes suddenly turned cold. He and Lei Guiyun shouted almost at the same time: "Alert! β
"Don't! Other! Other! I'm a student at Kyorin University, not Warcraft! "A boy came out of the grass. Looking at his big sparkling eyes, Lu Qianfan always felt as if he had seen him somewhere.
"Can you summon magic armor?" Tang Jie asked vigilantly.
"I can, I can. But I'm just a student of the Martial Arts Academy, and I don't have combat effectiveness. The boy said.
Tang Jie waved his hand and said, "Just summon it." β
"Oh, okay." The boy straightened up and clumsily summoned the magic armor.
Seeing the white iron magic armor that was only formed with the help of the school, Tang Jie said, "It can be lifted." β
"Why do you want me to summon magic armor?" The boy asked puzzledly, looking at Tang Jie with a pair of big watery eyes.
"Make sure you're not a Bone Rotten Demon Monkey in disguise. Monsters don't summon magic armor. Lu Qianfan finally remembered who this boy was. He was the boy who was disguised by the Rotten Bone Demon Monkey just now, Long Biao.
"I didn't think of using this method."
"What do you mean? Where are the others? How is Xiao Ranran? After confirming that the boy in front of him was a member of Xiao Ranran's team, Lu Qianfan's heart was about to jump out of his throat. He couldn't wait to hear the news of Xiao Ranran.
Long Biao said: "I don't know, I was expelled by them. β
"What?" Everyone was stunned.
Xu was finally rescued when he saw it, Long Biao's emotions were slightly excited, but under Xia Zhuoer's comfort, he quickly calmed down. When the mentality is stable, the IQ also rises. Long Biao logically and clearly told them what had happened in the past few days.
After listening, Lu Qianfan said, "Brother Mu, what do you think?" β
"I feel that Lin Shufan's decision is too strange. Not only is it rashly pursued, but the way to find a way out is also unreasonable, almost arbitrary. But I think it might be a matter of experience. β
Lu Qianfan said: "After the accident of Nagarjuna, Lin Shufan locked Huang Ya as the murderer without any basis. The Rotten Bone Demon Monkey gave Huang Ya a breath, more like he was deliberately telling everyone that there are demonic beasts among you. Sister Zhuoer, what do you think? β
"Do you mean psychological pressure? There are indeed signs of this. Lin Shufan's behavior seems to be deliberately arousing suspicion among students and putting huge pressure on everyone's psychology. β
"And what is his purpose in doing this?"
"I think it's for Xiao Ranran." Long Biao suddenly said: "All the boys in the team want to chase the goddess." Lin Shufan too, since we met the Warcraft, Lin Shufan and Xiao Ranran have been talking more and more. β
Lu Qianfan frowned. How is this trick so similar to his own chasing Qi Zining? Sure enough, the scumbags in the world are as black as ...... He said, "Let's go on our way." β
"I think you have the potential to pick up skin." Lei Guiyun was reluctant, but his body stood up honestly.
"When your wife had an accident, you were crazier than Qianfan, let's go." Xia Zhuoer snorted.
"If you dare to touch a single hair, I'll kill you."
