Chapter 14 Ugly
Chapter 14 Ugly
On the other side, Jiang Nanxi and the three-tailed fox walked quietly in the dark woods.
Gradually, the three-tailed fox stopped, its small nose moving in the air.
Noticing the three-tailed fox's strange behavior, Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but stop and asked, "What's wrong?"
The three-tailed fox did not answer her question immediately, but continued to sniff something in the air.
After a long time, it came to Jiang Nanxi's feet. One fox paw pulled her trouser leg, and the other pointed in a direction.
Jiang Nanxi was a little confused. If it was an ordinary demon, the three-tailed fox would not be so serious.
The man and the fox have been in the mountains for some time. During this period, Jiang Nanxi also relied on the three-tailed fox to kill several centipede monsters.
Squatting down, Jiang Nanxi touched the three-tailed fox's head and asked, "Is there an elite demon over there?"
The three-tailed fox shook its head when it heard Jiang Nanxi's question, and then began to gesture anxiously.
Jiang Nanxi was stunned when he saw the three-tailed fox's performance. If it wasn't an elite demon, then what could it be?
As he thought about it, Jiang Nanxi's expression gradually became serious: "Is anyone injured?"
Seeing that Jiang Nanxi gave the correct answer, the three-tailed fox nodded its head quickly.
Jiang Nanxi immediately stood up and calmly ordered: "Three-tailed fox, you lead the way."
Following the guidance of the three-tailed fox, Jiang Nanxi kept thinking along the way.
From what she knew from her father, the secret realms controlled by the association were generally full of surveillance cameras.
For high school students like them who come here for internship, the two card makers who appear at the entrance of the secret realm will definitely be watching them the whole time.
If someone is injured according to the three-tailed fox's judgment, but no one comes to rescue
She felt something was wrong.
Before she had time to think too much, she had already arrived at the source of the blood that the three-tailed fox smelled.
I saw a tree that was as thick as a man's arms being chopped off by an unknown sharp weapon, and its thick crown fell diagonally to the ground.
Lin Yue, who participated in the first Russell Ranking Test, fell to the ground, his life or death unknown.
Jiang Nanxi walked quickly to Lin Yue and called softly: "Lin Yue. Lin Yue"
Seeing that Lin Yue didn't respond, Jiang Nanxi slowly reached out and felt his breath.
"Fortunately, I'm still alive." Feeling Lin Yue's gentle breathing hitting his fingers, Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But because he didn't know where Lin Yue was injured specifically, Jiang Nanxi didn't dare to move his body rashly.
Jiang Nanxi stood up and said solemnly: "What on earth happened?"
In her impression, Lin Yue is the strongest student in the class except for Russell Du Heng and her.
There was no way those centipedes could have hurt him that badly.
And where are the card makers from the association in the secret realm? Why hasn’t anyone come?
"It would be great if Russell was here." Jiang Nanxi thought to himself.
Russell's Pidgeot was too convenient to deal with this situation. He could have left Tsugikuni Yoriichi behind and rode Pidgeot to ask for help himself.
Unfortunately, Jiang Nanxi did not have any flying mount. If he left the three-tailed fox here to protect Lin Yue, it would be too dangerous for him to go for help alone.
Just as Jiang Nanxi was thinking about a solution, hurried footsteps were heard from the dark woods in front of her.
"Who!" Jiang Nanxi shouted with concentration.
The three-tailed fox also took an attacking stance.
Under the gaze of the man and the fox, a panicked figure staggered out from the woods.
"Du Heng." Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but let down her guard when she saw the person coming. But when she saw Du Heng's torn clothes and disheveled appearance, she had new doubts, "Du Heng, what happened? Why did you become like this?"
Du Heng panted heavily and replied intermittently: "Run quickly, there is a monster!"
Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but frowned when he heard this: "There is a monster? What will happen to Lin Yue if we run away?"
I don’t care whether Lin Yue lives or dies!
Du Heng thought irritably in his heart, but replied: "This monster is no match for my green zombie. You want to stay and die, but I won't accompany you." The reason why Du Heng said this was because his green zombie had died and went into cooling down. If Jiang Nanxi didn't go with him, he wouldn't be able to go far by himself in this environment.
But Jiang Nanxi didn't know what he was thinking, so he just said seriously: "I won't leave. I will stay here to guard Lin Yue and wait for rescue."
Jiang Nanxi grew up under the education of her father, a gold-level card maker, and she couldn't abandon her classmates.
Du Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Are you going to sacrifice your life for a piece of trash?"
Jiang Nanxi shook his head upon hearing this, and did not answer Du Heng's question. He just said, "If you want to leave, you can go alone."
This stupid woman! If I could leave, would I still be here to persuade you?!
Du Heng cursed in his heart.
At this moment, a shrill roar came from the woods behind Du Heng.
Du Heng's legs went weak and he fell to the ground, but in order to survive, he used his hands and feet to crawl to Jiang Nanxi's side.
Jiang Nanxi didn't care about Du Heng's ugly appearance, but just looked at the dark woods with a cautious expression.
"Ho ho ho"
Accompanied by heavy breathing, the monster that Du Heng mentioned gradually appeared in front of Jiang Nanxi.
The monster was covered in scarlet flesh and blood, with a pair of cold blades on its bloody hands that pierced people's eyes.
Upon seeing the monster, the three-tailed fox immediately cast an illusion.
Unfortunately, it's useless.
It was obvious that the monster on the opposite side was mindless and could not withstand the lowest level of illusion.
Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but look grim when she saw this situation. After several battles, the three-tailed fox's disadvantages became more and more serious. If she could get out alive this time, she must find a way to solve this problem.
But the monster didn't allow her to think too much and attacked first.
The scarlet figure attacked the three-tailed fox with a shrill sound, and the sharp claws of its left hand, carrying a cold light, pierced the three-tailed fox's face.
Fortunately, the three-tailed fox dodged the monster's attack with a nimble leap.
But it was precisely this flight that created a fatal flaw for it.
The sharp claw of the monster's right hand dragged on the ground, leaving three deep cuts in the dirt, and swept across the three-tailed fox from bottom to top.
The three-tailed fox is broken.
It only lasted for one encounter.
Jiang Nanxi was unlucky as he encountered enemies that were not controlled by the three-tailed fox's illusion several times. According to common sense, the three-tailed fox should not be so weak.
But there is no if in reality.
Just as Jiang Nanxi was shocked by the death of the three-tailed fox, a huge force came from behind her and pushed her towards the monster.
Jiang Nanxi looked back in surprise.
It’s Du Heng.
Du Heng had a crazy look on his face at this time, and he murmured: "I can't die, I can't die, I still want to become a hall-level card maker."
"Yes, I want to become a master card maker and surpass Russell!"
"Jiang Nanxi, I will remember you. When I become a hall-level card maker, I will help you get revenge!"
Having said that, Du Heng turned around and prepared to escape.
Looking at Du Heng's crazy look at this moment, Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but close his eyes in despair.
Just as she was waiting for her death, a calm voice came from mid-air.
"It's really ugly, Du Heng."
