Fear grows, like barnacles packed with hearts.

"So many years, such a long time, countless dedication, hard work, sacrifice ......"

The hoarse and gloomy voice is still whispering obsessively, and between the words is exaggerated to perverted tenderness,

“...... Honey, it turned out that I was wrong. ”

I held my breath, sticking as low as I could to the clammy earth, my whole body cold and stiff as if it had been poured with cement.

But from the depths of the cavern, in addition to the blasphemous and ghostly tones, there was a slight slow grinding sound, echoing and cascading, and finally climbing over the rock wall and into my ears covered with cold sweat.

It turned out that the murmurs mixed with the dream were not auditory hallucinations.

A river of fear poured over his head, drawing all the speculation about the current situation into his mind, but no matter how he looked at it, the creature hiding in the shadows was anything but a friendly kind.

Having come to my conclusion, I immediately grabbed the rock wall like a gecko and cautiously stepped back.

The fluorite glow in the distance flickered, and every time it lit up, it would shine a floating dust, which was contaminated in every corner as far as the eye could see with the indescribable imagination.

I lowered my face, the tip of my nose almost touching the cold ground.

Click-

Suddenly, an extremely subtle cracking sound came from the tip of my right finger, which was not obvious, but it still startled me. Fighting through the vicious torment of my heart, I shuddered and twisted my pupils to look at the object I was holding down—the shriveled branches scattered across the land.

In an instant, I just felt like the sky was spinning, and I almost fell to the ground without support! After all, the way I came here was full of weathered remains of this plant!

Those stumps and leaves that I didn't care about are now like hidden traps, and once I accidentally step on them, I am afraid that only a tragic end will be left for what greets me.

Depend on!

I scolded in my heart with all my might, but my body still honestly refused to deviate half a point.

What to do? Have you been lying here all the time? And what the hell is that, and why is it in such a place?! Could it be ......

Suddenly, I suddenly thought of an extremely outrageous explanation, but it was also the only possibility at the moment - the murderer of Xun and a group of dwarfs, maybe it was it. And if it's the same as I thought, the monster that swallowed it before should be nearby, or at least some of it, still here.

Thinking about it, I subconsciously looked at the bottom of the passage, and among the cascading dead leaves, there seemed to be some strange shapes, the square outline, the gel-like bloated texture, and the pungent smell that vaguely wafted from it, all marked obvious facts.

I slowly raised my index finger and staggered towards a smaller sac, waiting until my skin touched the blurred shadow, and goosebumps swarmed all over my back.

Trembling, I withdrew my fingers, and then stood in front of me in a daze, a filthy dark green in the dying dim light.

Finally, the fantasy in his mind became a reality, and the demonic hallucinations broke through the skull and roared towards the frozen darkness in the distance.

No, I can't stay here any longer, even if I die, I can't be twisted into that disgusting monster like Xun!

The uncontrollable rise and fall of my chest, every muscle crumpled in unspeakable horror, I no longer care about the possibility of being discovered, I just want to escape from this purgatory-like evil hole in the shortest possible time!

Click, click, click-

Suddenly!

Just as I was groping desperately, a series of branches suddenly cracked sounded, cutting my frantically beating heart like a razor!

Something, right behind me, was crawling slowly.

The swollen green tendons pressed against my forehead, and I sent the remaining strength to my neck, struggling through my spine, and looking at the bleak shadows not far away.

Although I didn't want to admit it, when my vision became clear, I recognized that there were countless pale arms clinging to the mud and rocks.

Each of the creatures that seemed to have fallen out of a nightmare, snaking like a long snake, entangled and shuttling with a complexity that cannot be described in words, was like a staggered and wriggling maggot in the deepest part of the lake. And the tip of this strange ball of flesh still has a shriveled outer skin hanging from the end, and on the wrinkled face, three dark black holes are pointing apathically forward.

When I saw this picture, I suddenly opened my mouth and tongue like a fool, and with the rapid contraction in the abdominal cavity, an endless stream of acid water was squeezed out of the bottom of my stomach.

"Wow-"

I retched, the viscous burning liquid trickling down the corners of my mouth to the floor, my arms twitching like chaff, and almost instantly, I knew of the impending death.

And this time, no one can pave the way for me.

"Damn...... ...... want to kill me."

All the repression in my memory exploded at this moment, and I picked up the wooden thorn that had been hidden in my sleeve for a long time and held it between my eyes.

Beyond the jagged sharpness in my hands is the courage of me to be driven to the end of my life,

"! Come on! I want your grandfather's life! ”

I staggered to my feet, roaring like madness, saliva and sweat spilling everywhere in an instant.

The whispers of anger in my ears suddenly dissipated, and all that remained of the cavern was my high-pitched roar, echoing into the unreachable darkness.

At this point, there is no way back.

Whether it's the treacherous arm in front of me or the mysterious monster, they must have sensed my presence. The only remaining variable is where I will end up dying, or ......

I squeezed the wooden thorns in my palm tighter, and this weak weapon may also be suitable for the weak.

Swish!

Suddenly, in the light of light, I could only hear the wind rising! The explosion of the air resounded through the entire tunnel in an instant! Before I could move, Xun's withered skin had already flashed to the top of the cave, and the pale and terrifying giant claws filled all my vision in the blink of an eye!

At this speed beyond the limits of human reactions, I couldn't even scream, I could only stare at the palm of my feathered palm in the air, and the bone spurs that broke through the skin on it could tear my flesh apart in a second, and I couldn't even leave a decent corpse!

Perhaps it was a deliberate joke from the heavens, or perhaps it was to be able to appreciate the impending death, time suddenly stood still, and in the cracks of consciousness, I could hear my own soft lamentations and relief from the depths of my soul.

At least this relief is fortunate for me.

Buzz————

However, just as I was about to close my eyes and choose to face destruction, there was a crisp trilling sound unique to the sword blade behind Yu Xu's white palm. Then, on this stage woven by despair, a magnificent movement sung by iron and blood was played.

I saw the flesh cut off layer by layer under the blade, and the bones shattered in the impact; I saw the rich turbidity of the elixir syrup, gushing out from the smooth incision, splashing on the top of the dark cavern like a brilliant Milky Way; The arms were like dolls that had lost their support, spinning and flying behind my ears under the action of inertia, and the person holding the sword rushed in front of me impartially.

"Huh?"

The hideous expression could not be transformed into an ecstatic look under such a drastic change, and I spoke in a hoarse voice, and tears almost flowed down like a flood.

"Why are you in—ahem!!"

Before the words of greeting could be spat out, the god-of-war figure immediately threw an old fist and slammed it into the center of my chest. Just as I was overwhelmed by this majestic force, she saw the right moment, dodged closer, and took advantage of the opportunity to grab my neckline and run like a mad hare!

"Lean !!"

Dragged through a craggy hole, I suddenly felt like a kind of torture of tying people to the back of a car and speeding all the way. But this inappropriate thought only existed for a few seconds, and then it was replaced by a deeper fear.

Because the direction of the sprint is the position of that monster!

Suddenly, I screamed like a shrew scolding the street,

"! Turn around! QuickTM U-turn!! ”

But apparently, the woman was not going to be obedient.

"Hold on!"

"Huh?!"

Her impatient voice sounded, squeezing my few sanities out of my shell, and I couldn't resist anymore, and my backhand obediently hooked her tight waist.

Suddenly!

Gravity seemed to be forcibly erased, and I burrowed into the air like a wisp of flying leaves!

Before I landed, I twisted my shoulders to look into the depths of the cave, and saw that all the mud and stones that dared to stand in the way of the cave were shattered into pieces by a powerful and precise slash! And in her run, which was almost close to the ground, the sound of the monster squirming was also approaching at an exaggerated speed!

Just one more step! It's just that the fish is dead and the net is broken!

"!!"

I tore open my throat and howled with the loudest voice in my life, and the fear of the unknown in my heart was vented in the cramped cave!

Click!

The end of the long leap. The moment her toes touched the ground, she suddenly twisted her body, lowered her center of gravity, and brushed the ground in an exaggerated arc, then instantly compressed every joint to the limit, and the next moment, she pierced into the direction at right angles to the cave like a flying away from the string!

"Lean !!"

I didn't understand the current situation, and in a panic, I hurriedly raised my arm to protect the back of my neck, but the expected collision did not happen, and I still kept holding a sword in one hand and running in the other hand.

"? Not a dead end? ”

Puzzled, I opened my eyes in amazement, and for a moment I couldn't figure out why there were other forks in this straight tunnel.

Of course, reality doesn't give me a chance to think, and it wasn't until this moment that I understood the reason for my urgency.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The stone walls around me began to shake violently, and the fragments of the stone branches poured down on my body like a torrential rain, and behind the countless intertwined foreign objects was a huge figure with a blood-red body.

The next moment my eyes locked, I froze completely, and it can only be said that thanks to God's curtain, I was not allowed to see this heart-wrenching scene alone.

I can't describe this in words that ordinary people can understand, but the only thing I know for sure is that the giant, covered with visceral stumps, will obviously not let me live intact.

"瑗...... Run faster. ”

Almost pleading, I added with tears and sorrow,

"! Come on! It's about to catch up—"

"Pavilion!! Under!! ”

Suddenly, my messy train of thought was brutally cut off.

For in the distance, the beastly howl of the monster reminded me of a man, a man whom I could never see through, who could not understand, and who, in the same tone and madness as him, roared at me reverently,

"Mori!! Forest!! Want to kill the forest!!

I'm going to kill her first!!! ”
