As luck would have it, these people had been the ones surrounding Qin Ying in the square before the test began.
At that moment, their faces were filled with fear, and their bodies were covered in mud. How was this even a little similar to their daring and energetic attitudes in the public square earlier?
It was just that… If they were here, then where was Qin Ying?
However, at the very next moment, Li Jiu Que no longer had the time to worry about Qin Ying's whereabouts.
The extremely ferocious roar of a beast echoed, like rolling thunder, as though it was right beside them. It nearly caused Ye Hui to fall into the water.
Lu Jiu Que hurriedly grabbed hold of Ye Hui, her face falling.
This voice, could it be…?
Boom, boom!
A huge thing suddenly appeared after crushing the trees that had been blocking it. It was domineering, like a god on a battlefield.
"Ah, ah, ah… Help!"
"Quick, run away! Help!"
…
The sharp, heartrending cry of this familiar figure made both of their hearts sink to their stomachs within an instant.
They were right. The thing that was chasing these people was none other than the one-star demonic beast that had left and returned!
It turned out it hadn't actually left the area. It had merely laid low and dormant in the dark, waiting for the lowly ants who had acted so recklessly and challenged it to appear.
In other words, this one-star demonic beast had long known of the presence of intruders but simply pretended not to know!
Lu Jiu Que was deeply shocked!
It was merely a one-star demonic beast, yet it already had such intimidating intelligence?
She stretched out a hand and pulled. Then, along with Ye Hui, the two were once again immersed in water. With an anxious heart, she kept a close watch over the situation, or rather, the changes in the situation…
Could it even be considered a battle?
What a joke…
This was simply a one-sided murder. Had there even been a battle fought?
By this time, the weaker young man had been abandoned by his companion. He collapsed to the ground, covered his injured leg, and moved back bit by bit, as though he would be able to escape this way.
Whether it was just a coincidence or something else, no one knew. But it so happened that his desperate expression was illuminated by the moonlight, which gave Lu Jiu Que and Ye Hui a clear look at it.
"Ah, ah, ah… Save me… Don't come here… Stay away…
"Darn it, don't come over here!
"Save me…"
…
The one-star demonic beast was annoyed by this noisy little thing and suddenly opened its mouth to finish the young man.
Without even finding the voice to cry out for help, the young man's throat was crushed into pieces by the beast's sharp fangs.
Rip—
With one yank of the gigantic beast's head, the man's head flew off and rolled down to end up right in front of Lu Jiu Que. Then, with a rumble, it drifted away.
The expression of despair that had remained frozen on that young, naive face was deeply imprinted on both Lu Jiu Que and Ye Hui's hearts.
It was a wrongful death that would leave them with everlasting grievances!
Lu Jiu Que held her breath and quickly covered Ye Hui's mouth. She could feel his body shivering.
Ye Hui's face was ghastly pale. He had never thought that death would be so close to him!
This was the first time he'd had to face such a feeling, what was known as the law of the jungle, directly!
On the other side, after swallowing the young man's body in one mouthful, red blood was spurting out from between the cracks of the demon beast's fangs and splattering everywhere. Red organs and white bones were also falling all over the place.
"Crack… Crack…"
The sound of bones snapping was extremely crisp and clear. In the middle of the night, it was exceptionally spooky…
"Blech…"
Someone couldn't help letting out a gag. Lu Jiu Que and Ye Hui felt their hearts constrict with fear at the same time.
Fool!
How dare you make such a strange sound at this vital point in time?!
Sure enough, the one-star demonic beast lifted its head to swallow its food, then shook its head, charging to the place where the sound was made!
