I Will Survive Till The End: Blood Extermination Academy-Chapter 28: Stranger Forest

Examination 3...

Levon estimated they've been on the run for 16 minutes.

They hadn't reached the Forest yet, and danger had already swiped down many in the form of cute pink-fur monkeys.

Levon's eyes narrowed towards Floriana.

As the daughter of a famous Mob Family, assassination attempts must happen daily for.

Levon concluded that her body must have gone through hell and back for her to develop such a keen sense of awareness while asleep.

Many others thought of her strangeness.

"What a beast."

They didn't think as deeply as Levon, but still felt impressed.

How could they not be?

While mid-sleep, Floriana sent strong left and right hook punches, swiftly ending the monkeys flying without warning.

She was fast, nimble, flexible and quite scary too.

"What do you call this technique now? I've heard of there being Drunken Masters in this world. But... I've never heard of Slumbering Masters!"

"Tch. Looks like they're a lot of characters in this place."

"Yeah... First, it's that girl these guy's call Pickler... and now this slumbering master. Who the heck are these people? Were they with us from the very start of the competitions? How come I'm seeing them only now?"

"Exactly. I haven't seen them before. I thought the only strong one was the guy called Victorio. I've been following his lead since the start."

"You guys haven't? Well, it makes sense that you haven't seen them before, seeing as we were 10,000 after the first competition and over 700 after the next. Even after we were weeding down to 269 and then to 189, it's still quite a lot of people to keep tabs on.

"Dammit. I'm so jealous. While we're struggling, they're breezing in and out."

More and more people cursed underneath their breaths.

Soon, everyone was running in silence.

Macho guy, Payne Ignier, was running with Book Boy, Hendrix, on his shoulders.

Unbelievable... The guy was still reading his book with ease while Payne did all the heavy lifting..

Artilla Ferra ran quite at ease despite the long ancient garments she dawned.

There were a few other strong people in the group who looked relatively relaxed too.

Levon threw a glance behind him and frowned, feeling uneasy in his heart.

His gaze was focused on Victorio and his gang who ran among them.

'They're slowing their pace.... Why?'

Levon watched them switch positions, until they ran in last place.

At the same time, the corners of Victorio's lips slowly creeped up in an unnatural manner when staring into the distance.

Then—

"Hey, where the hell are you guys going?"

Several others also noticed Victorio's group upon entering the FOREST.

Victorio's group no longer marched forward with them, but went sideways, deeper and deeper into the forest.

Suddenly, he felt it.

"Shugo, get higher!"

Levon hastily leaped onto the closet tree branch in a haste.

A few others also reacted the same.

He felt it—the Vibrations.

It felt as though each step they'll be taking, will end up sinky them into the murky ankle-deep waters.

AHHHHHhh!!!!~

Even more sweat coated Levon's black when watching countless giant tentacles burst out from the ground and drag people in.

This was CRAZY!

Levon's breathing grew rapid.

These unfortunate people found themselves smothered by tentacles.

These tentacles, despite only reaching waist-length after shooting out of the ground, looked incredibly strong.

They were like massive anacondas, wrapping and dragging their victims down into the muddy forest grounds that had a few pink, soft stones poking out.

"I think I got it. Thesis pink stones must be our only way forward. So all we have to do is—"

AHHHH!

Screams bellowed from the speaker .

The moment his weight steadied on one of the Pink stones, its center popped like a bubble; and all they could hear was him screaming for what seemed like all eternity.

'How deep does the center go?'

Many realized that their numbers were dwindling down by the minute.

More importantly, where exactly was this place on the map?

The very tip of a tentacle reached for Yimu but she reacted before it could touch her.

"How disgusting!"

With a flick of her wrist, 10 razor-sharp cards from her deck tore through the air.

Greeeee~

The strange tentacle flinched, retracted in agony.

In another corner, one reached for Hendrix, but was maliciously punched by Payne.

Hendrix didn't even raise his head from his book, having full confidence that Payne would take care of everything.

How odd...

What makes this Payne so obedient to Hendrix, even in times like this?

Then, Payne slowly raised his eyes, sensing the presence of too many tentacles approaching them. And only then did Levon get a closer look at the book Hendrix held.

Everything happened too fast.

Hendrix's actions were a blur, utilizing the blades that extended from all corners of his book like fans. .

~Pouff!!

Taking a handkerchief out, Hendrix slowly wiped the traces of the bright blue blood that sprayed in an arc.

'It seems that without Macho boy beside him, Book boy isn't all arrogant.'

Many concluded, taking a deeper look at Hendrix.

Deep down, they were a little scared of Hendrix now. But for others...

"Did they know?" Shugo chewed on a snack, safely perched on a tree branch.

Did they know? Levon nodded casually. "Not sure."

They were referring to Victorio and his group.

"They left just before they ventured into this dangerous path. "Shugo giggled playfully. "Tell me, Buddy... Do you believe in coincidences?"

"Coincidences?" Levon chuckled.

How silly and naive.

A coincidence is a fateful encounter planned by someone far superior, or someone playing God.

To believe in coincidences, is to be idiotic.

Even if the victim might be clueless of what's going on, there are ALWAYS people pulling the strings in the dark, creating these so-called Coincidences.

Shugo and Levon gave each other tactful stares, none of them believing in wishy-washy things like coincidences. .

.

.

"AHHHHH~"

More and more people screamed, until no one else got dragged in.

The survivors were all perched on the trees, safe from the tentacles.

No one dared to head back down.

Understand that although the muddy grounds looked returned to normal, danger would quickly draw them in should their feet touch the ground.

At the same time, a few understood that the show must go on.

"We're wasting time." Hendrix spoke, adjusting his glasses.

"Although the little girl didn't finish her words, we all heard her say the number 2."

Many nodded.

"I'll take a guess here, to assume she meant 2 hours... That's all we most likely got."

It could be 2 hours 30 minutes or even 2 hours, 40 minutes.

But... do they really want to risk it on a gamble?

Everyone nodded, knowing time was no longer on their side.

Looking at the towering building in the distance that seemed closer than before, the group moved without haste.

Tick-tock. Tick-tock~

A nonexistent clock ticked in their ears, aligning with their pounding heartbeats.

That's it... They were unwilling to die just yet.
