Chapter 257
…
After Mu Jiao finished speaking, Bowen's voice immediately rang out: "Okay, Lan Qi, Meng Kuo Carter and I will stop above the forest area to provide support. You guys hurry."
"Yes." Mu Jiao answered, took out a bundle of rope from the space button, and then threw the end of the rope to Fang Jia from a distance, and said to Fang Jia:
"Student Fang Jia, you've been really unlucky these past few days. Come, grab the rope and tie it around your waist. I'll help you out."
"Okay, thank you Mu Jiao." Fang Jia caught the rope thrown by Mu Jiao with a touched look on his face. He fell into a snow pit. The snow around him was thicker than that on him. It was not impossible for him to get out by himself, but it would take a lot of effort.
With the help of Mu Jiao, Fang Jia got out of the thick snowdrift in no time. When he finally stood in a shallow snow area, Fang Jia was only four or five meters away from Mu Jiao. The little fat boy had escaped from the heavy snow and was waving to Mu Jiao with excitement on his face. Mu Jiao took a lot of effort and finally pulled him to the shallow snow area. She breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. Seeing the little fat boy waving at him happily, Mu Jiao also raised her hand happily to respond. However, before she raised her arm, she heard a huge beast roar coming from nearby.
Mu Jiao and Fang Jia's expressions turned stiff instantly. In just a few seconds, the roar of the beast was getting closer and closer.
At this moment, Bowen's words came from the bracelets of Mu Jiao and Fang Jia. His voice was urgent: "Mu Jiao, Fang Jia, quickly leave the forest area. A giant tiger beast hibernating in the forest area has suddenly awakened. Quick, leave quickly. Do you hear me?"
"Team leader, it's too late." Mu Jiao shouted.
As Bowen was speaking, a strange tiger beast as tall as a small building and seven or eight meters long appeared less than two meters behind Fang Jia with fishy saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth.
At this moment, the beast only needed to lower its head to bite Fang Jia into its mouth. Mu Jiao shouted to Bowen, then quickly used all her strength to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth and drag Fang Jia to where she was standing.
The Giant Tiger Beast is the pinnacle of mid-level Exotic Beasts. With high-ranking interstellar Exotic Beasts now nearly extinct, this creature is firmly at the top of the food chain, a carnivorous Exotic Beast. Furthermore, it's quite picky, consuming only Exotic Beast meat, and even more so, human flesh. Judging by its length and build, it's a robust, mature male Exotic Tiger Beast.
The food that was about to reach its mouth was snatched away by a sneer. The giant tiger beast let out an angry growl and pounced towards Mu Jiao and Fang Jia in an instant.
Without caring about anything else, Mu Jiao and Fang Jia ran quickly while taking out their energy guns and spraying them wildly at the giant beast behind them. The giant tiger beast was chasing them closely.
Although the giant tiger beast was powerful, it also had a flaw: it couldn't fly. Normally, Mu Jiao and the other two would have escaped danger if they had just gotten on the low-level treadmill. However, the giant tiger beast behind them didn't give Mu Jiao any chance to start the treadmill. If they had been even a second slower, they would have been trampled under the giant tiger beast's feet.
This is when there are dense trees in the forest as a buffer. If they had met this guy in Pingyuan, they would probably have been killed by now.
In fact, the two of them should be grateful not only for the dense forest, but also for the giant beast, which, despite the harsh winter, suddenly awakened from its dormancy, its powers completely depleted and its strength greatly reduced. Otherwise, with Mu Jiao and Fang Jia's strength, they would have perished long ago. So, it was a blessing in disguise for the two of them.
