On the other side, Li Dong, who was feeling restless, took a bite of his bread, then suddenly spoke, “Qin Jiagui, it’s already noon, all we see is forest and more forest.
Are we still planning to move forward in the afternoon?”
Although Su Yu was the strongest among them, he was quite low-key and did not express his opinion often.
Qin Jiagui, who was more fond of maintaining his presence, made most of the decisions, hence Li Dong asked him for his opinion first.
Li Dong only asked one question, but his message was clear – moving forward seemed meaningless as there was only the endless forest ahead.
Before Qin Jiagui could express his opinion, Zhou Huakang nodded, saying, “Yes, we had originally planned to spend only two days.
Now only half a day is left and there’s only forest in front of us.
It seems unnecessary to journey further, how about…
we go back to the school and decide from there?”
Everyone fell silent after hearing Li Dong and Zhou Huakang’s words.
Qin Jiagui said, “No, since we have decided, we must continue.
Even if only half a day remains, we can’t give up until the very last moment.
Perhaps…
hope will arise at the final moment?”
Seeing Qin Jiagui’s unwavering resolve, Li Dong turned to Su Yu and asked, “Su Yu, what are your thoughts?” Among those present, it seemed only Su Yu could change Qin Jiagui’s decision.
After some contemplation, Su Yu said, “I agree with Qin Jiagui’s opinion…
until the final moment, we must not give up…” He paused and sighed softly.
Although he also believed the chances were slim, the decision to return would bring about a choice he didn’t want to face.
Seeing that Su Yu also agreed, Li Dong kept silent, looking disappointed.
After a short rest, they finally packed up their stuff, picked their backpacks and continued on their journey.
Their journey, as Li Dong and others had predicted, was via an endless forest of towering trees.
Occasionally, creatures like Goblins and other monsters would attack them.
Soon, Zhao Shichang evolved and became the fifth First-Level Black Iron Warrior of the group.
Zhao Shichang shared the same special power with Qin Jiagui – it was manifested in his right hand.
After his First-Level evolution, his right hand was covered with a black shell which he didn’t use to strike enemies akin to Qin Jiagui’s metal fist, but instead, a sharp blade that was over a foot long and white as jade would emerge from the black shell.
According to the information he received, it was called a “Bone Blade”.
The power of it could easily cut through a thick small tree, manifesting its sharpness.
As time ticked by, everyone’s disappointment grew.
However, after Qin Jiagui led the way through a bush taller than a man, he suddenly gasped in surprise.
Ma Ziye, who was following close behind, also cheered and surprisingly, could not wait to run down the hill.
Lying behind the aforementioned bushy hill, there was a river which was approximately ten meters wide, seemingly endless, coursing its way through the forest like a white ribbon amidst the sea of greenery.
The sight of the river filled Ma Ziye and the others with sheer joy.
The past two days had led them into countless fights.
Their clothes had long since been drenched in blood.
The stench and discomfort were indescribable.
The sight of the river was beyond exhilarating, and even Ma Ziye could not hold back her excitement and ran towards it.
“Be careful,” Qin Jiagui warned as he ran after her just in case.
“It’s a river, a river!” Zhao Shichang chuckled and bolted after them.
Behind them, Ning Yan’s eyes lit up and she followed them.
Suddenly, the entire group of thirteen people gathered by the river with enthusiasm.
Seeing the flowing river made them itch to jump and wash themselves thoroughly.
“Everyone calm down.
We don’t know how deep this river is, whether it’s dangerous or not.
Let’s check it out first,” Qin Jiagui was sufficiently composed to consider the risk amidst the excitement.
Zhao Shichang laughed, “I think we should wash one by one.
Now that we’ve seen the water, it’s nearly impossible to resist, even for a second.”
Witnessing even him this eager, let alone Ma Ziye and Ning Yan, the other women nodded in agreement.
Zhuang Xiaohua, on the side, said, “This section of the river is very narrow, it can’t be very deep.
I know what I am talking about.
Besides, the water is crystal clear to the bottom.
We can even see small stones at the bottom.
There couldn’t be any danger.
If the rest of you are scared, then I am going in first.”
Zhuang Xiaohua laughed while impatiently taking off his jacket and jumped into the water. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Ma Ziye snorted disapprovingly, and quickly the women turned around so as to not see Zhuang Xiaohua.
Qin Jiagui and Su Yu reassured themselves by considering the river’s clarity and the approximate depth.
Zhao Shichang laughed, “Then, we will have to trouble the ladies to keep an eye out.
We are going in first…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Zhuang Xiaohua, who was enjoying the water a moment ago, suddenly let out a scream.
He was thrashing wildly in the water, his face contorted in discomfort.
Then, the clear water started turning red with his blood.
“What’s happening?” This sudden event left everyone in shock.
Even Ma Ziye and the others, despite their initial discomfort, rushed over to see.
There was clearly nothing in the transparent river water, but Zhuang Xiaohua’s body was contorting irregularly as though something was wrapping around him.
He opened his mouth to scream desperately, “Help…
help…” as his body kept sinking.
“Everyone, be careful!
Don’t plunge into the water!” Qin Jiagui was shouting warnings while his Iron Fist appeared in readiness.
Seeing the river water and the struggling Zhuang Xiaohua, he was hesitant.
The more enigmatic things are, the scarier they become.
Even Qin Jiagui withdrew in fear.
Su Yu, on the other hand, didn’t say a word in the face of the chaos; not even bothering to undress.
His left shoulder quickly transformed into a protective scale that spouted white gas.
He jumped into the river.
His “Rending Claw” immediately whirled in the water, creating a great noise.
On rushing towards Zhuang Xiaohua, who was struggling for his life, Su Yu swung his “Rending Claw” swiftly.
With a loud roar, the “Rending Claw” swirled at high speed, splashing water all around.
As Su Yu roared, “I understand now—” White fangs sprouted out of his mouth alongside a slight vibration in his arm.
A “whoosh” sound filled the air as a flurry of “Tooth Bursts” were shot out, followed by mild explosions in the water.
The river became red with large amounts of blood.
Seeing the “Tooth Burst” explode in the river and result in such a significant amount of blood, those on the bank began to understand what was happening.
