Capítulo 217: Closeness

Inside the cave.

Kiba and others took each step with care. Monroe was especially on guard after the recent attack by Rock-scaled Lizard.

He has brought a flare to help them see better inside the cave, though not everyone agreed it was a good decision.

As they walked ahead, from a wall on left said, a lizard's mouth suddenly popped out. The lizard was camouflaged so it was almost impossible to mark out its presence unless one looks very carefully.

"Watch out!" Alexia shouted to warn Ruby and others, albeit a bit late. She believed the cave was made from special materials which reduced her senses.

"What?!" Ruby was on the extreme left and she was completely caught off-guard. The lizard was already above her shoulder and she has no time to back off.

As the mouth clamped its sharp jaws around her shoulder, the eyes of the lizard suddenly turned stiff before it could chew the flesh.

It opened its mouth and backed off, releasing helpless sounds.
