Wind Thunder Island used to be a large-scale island city, but after more than 3,000 years of destruction by runestone beasts, this place has long been unrecognizable.

Even the once prosperous city is overgrown with weeds, some high-rise buildings have collapsed, there are many abandoned vehicles on the road, and the rusty shell is covered with the hideous scratches of runestone beasts.

When night fell, the entire Wind Thunder Island was shrouded in darkness, the storm was raging outside, and the city was filled with terrifying cries from time to time.

Click-

A pair of leather boots shattered a pile of white bones, Zhong Lu looked down, and felt a little chill in her heart, because she couldn't tell whether this was the bones of a rune beast or a human bone.

Higashizawa bent down and picked up a dark green badge from the ground.

"Wind Thunder Badge?"

His brows furrowed slightly, the Wind and Thunder Badge was the most important life-saving prop for all the runes who participated in the Wind and Thunder Trial, how could it be thrown on the streets of this city?

"There seems to have been a lot of fighting here." Tang Yu squatted on the ground, dipped the blood on the ground that had not dried with his hand, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it.

"It's human blood."

Without waiting for Tang Yu to judge it, Dong Ze had already come to the result.

"How do you know?" Zhong Yang asked.

Dong Ze threw the Wind and Thunder Badge in his hand into Zhong Yang's hand, and Zhong Yang couldn't help but look pale when he saw it.

The architecture of a city is better for a night than in the wild, but when humans think like this, so do rune-stone beasts.

So what looks like a safe city is actually a murderous city.

"It seems that the owner of this badge was attacked before, and he lost the badge, but I am afraid that his life and death are unknown." Tang Yu said.

Zhuang Xiang and Zhong Lu couldn't help but shudder, and Zhong Lu asked weakly, "Why don't we go somewhere else for the night?" ”

After seeing Dong Ze's methods, Zhong Lu's posture also lowered a lot, but in front of Zhuang Xiang, she still looked high.

"The wild will only be more dangerous, don't think too much, cheer up and find a safe place first."

Under Tang Yu's leadership, everyone found an abandoned shopping mall, the gates of this shopping mall had collapsed on all sides, and half of the building was surrounded by arm-thick vines, which looked a little gloomy.

However, it is located on the edge of the city, and the internal structure is not yet responsible, which is beneficial for Dongze and them.

Walking into the mall, everyone didn't notice anything wrong, and everyone chose an activity room on the second floor as a place to spend the night, and they worked in pairs and took turns keeping vigil.

Through the broken window, Higashizawa looked out the window, there was no moon in the sky, and the city was pitch black.

"Let's ...... Not ready for a bite to eat? Zhuang Xiang rubbed the pork belly on his stomach and asked in a low voice.

"What else do you eat with fat all over your body, do you want to add food to the rune stone beast?" Zhong Lu said in disgust.

Zhuang Xiang said dissatisfiedly: "People are iron and rice is steel, why don't you let people eat?" ”

"Everyone is a Fu person, it's not a big deal to be hungry for a day or two, and now when you go out to find food, I'm afraid you will encounter a lot of trouble." Tang Yu said kindly.

Zhuang Xiang listened, didn't talk much, directly found a clean place in a small corner, and fell asleep.

For the pampered Zhuang Xiang, the past few hours can be regarded as exhausting him.

"Dead fat man, the snoring is so loud, what if you lure the rune beast over?"

Zhong Lu kicked Zhuang Xiang gently, Zhuang Xiang turned over, and the snoring was small.

"Let me and Higashizawa Shou in the first half of the night, and you guys have a good rest." Tang Yu's cultivation is the highest, so his words are still quite weighty.

Zhong Yang and Zhong Lu didn't have any objections, took out the sleeping bag in their backpack, spread it on the ground and fell asleep.

Higashizawa frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

……

Time passed minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, it was already twelve o'clock in the morning.

Tang Yu and Dong Ze leaned against the corner, neither of them feeling too sleepy.

Tang Yu took out a pack of cigarettes from his backpack, handed it to Dong Ze, and asked, "You gave us a big surprise today." ”

Tozawa put the cigarette on his ear and did not smoke it directly, the night has a special meaning for him, he does not like to smoke at night.

Smoke can be disorienting, can make people let their guard down, and can disrupt vision...... In short, not a good thing.

"Now you are the first on the list, even if you are eliminated now, I believe that many universities will throw olive branches to you." Tang Yu said with a smile.

"You're doing well, too." Higashizawa said modestly.

"Looking at your sad face, you can't still worry about the rune beasts in the city, right?"

Dong Ze didn't hide it, and nodded directly: "This time the wind and thunder trial is a little strange. ”

"You mean the speed at which the storm is shrinking?" Tang Yu nodded, "Indeed, it is much faster than expected, at this rate, maybe tomorrow during the day, the trial will be over." ”

"I'm talking about runestone." Higashizawa Road.

"Runestone?"

"We've seen no less than five runestone beasts along the way, and their reactions seem to be much more intense than normal runecrafts, and they seem to be hungry for a long time and need energy to replenish their energy, this feeling is like ......"

"What does the runestone beast look like when it advances?" Tang Yu lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled it.

Dong Ze nodded solemnly.

As we all know, rune beasts have a natural physical advantage, a first-level rune beast needs at least three runes to be able to solve, and a second-level rune beast probably needs four runes to deal with.

Now all the rune beasts on Wind Thunder Island are level 1, and they are easy for the contestants to deal with, even if they can't beat them, they can escape.

But if ......

The rune beasts on Wind Thunder Island are advanced to level 2?

"If it's really the way you think, I'm afraid things will be in trouble."

Before Tang Yu's words fell, a miserable cry suddenly sounded in the city!

"Help!"

Bang –

Dong Ze and Tang Yu raised their heads suddenly, and came to the windowsill for the first time!

At the end of the street outside the mall, five figures were fleeing frantically, and behind them, a giant yellow lizard full ten meters long was in hot pursuit!

"It's a first-class rune beast, a fierce jackal!"

This ferocious jackal was much larger than the textbook had recorded, its scales glowing with cold, the sharp spikes on its back, and its blood-red tongue full of barbs when its mouth was opened!

At this moment, it is holding a "cicada chrysalis" in its mouth, but it is not satisfied, and is still hunting the humans in front of it!

Zhong Yang and Zhong Lu were also awakened and immediately came to Dong Ze and Tang Yu's side.

At this time, the fierce jackal lizard suddenly stopped and spit out the cicada chrysalis in its mouth.

Then, it curled up in a ball and crushed the cicada chrysalis on the ground!

Zhong Lu clearly saw that the spikes on the back of the ferocious jackal had pierced the gel that protected the contestants, and there was not much screaming, and blood had already flowed out of the thick piercing of the arm......
