I stared at the scene before me in disbelief. Who would have thought that this strange creature, resembling a toad, would actually stick out a long tongue?
Was he going to start licking us the next second? I couldn't stop thinking this to myself, and I took two steps back.
To be honest, I'm not afraid he'll eat us all at once; it's just that his current state makes me feel utterly disgusted.
I glanced at the girl; she was just as stunned as I was.
"Tsk tsk, how exactly did this thing change, Master?"
This is absolutely outrageous!
At this moment, Lei Jijian was also complaining in my mind.
To be honest, he probably wouldn't be afraid of those walls, but monsters like this would make Lei Jijian feel particularly uncomfortable.
After all, things like this are generally rare, and although the Thunder Strike Sword has cut down many outrageous things, it has never seen anything similar to this toad before.
"I have no idea either!"
As I watched the scene unfold before me, I silently cheered for Lei Jijian in my heart.
However, since the monster in front of us is very likely to be a toad or a rotting insect, does that mean that there is at least one of these two kinds of creatures living in this place?
As I pondered this in my mind, I seemed to have some ideas. Yes, whether it's a decaying insect or a toad, they definitely need some environmental support.
If this guy really does have a tongue like a toad, then he would need to live an amphibious life!
Does that also prove that there is a water source in the vicinity?
Thinking about this, I felt a surge of joy. Great! If there really is water here, whether stagnant or flowing, it will eventually flow outwards!
Can we then go out along this waterway?
However, we've already left, and we haven't found anywhere to store water along the way.
The entire area surrounding the sinking compass house is surrounded by water of varying depths.
I pondered to myself.
"Brother... what do we do now?"
If this guy suddenly attacks us, we won't be able to dodge it..."
At this moment, the girl was speaking timidly.
I frowned and hesitated for a moment. Indeed, if this guy attacked us directly, we would definitely be in trouble.
After all, that ancient person was able to hold us off for so long.
How could this monster, which also emerged from this mural, be inferior to that ancient person?
Looking at this fat man now, judging from his physique alone, he is definitely much stronger than that ancient man.
Thinking about this, I felt even more frightened.
If this monster attacks, whether it bites us or slams the ground, we might not be able to fight back.
I frowned, then slowly opened my mouth again.
"Yiyi, if this guy really is related to toads..."
He'll definitely go looking for those moving creatures!
We're both struggling right now, so this should be seen as a chance for survival...
Do you remember when I first started smashing the wall there, the monster would only react a little?
As long as we're far away, he'll always be there, walking slowly..."
I spoke slowly to the girl, and after hearing my words, she seemed to suddenly understand.
I'm not just saying this without evidence; after all, this monster has been in here for a very long time.
Moreover, he was already sealed inside the mural.
I was afraid he wouldn't make it.
I remember very clearly that when we first saw this mural, it depicted normal people, and there were never any such large-sized figures.
Therefore, I have a reasonable guess that he was not one of the people in the original group at all.
Instead, it was a toad that actually crawled out from the riverbank or bushes inside.
In that case, it becomes clear that he is not a person at all, but he still received the essence of those words, which is why he was able to break through!
Moreover, the way he emerged wasn't like the ancient people who hardened their muscles and slowly moved forward.
Instead, it's like this now...
It seemed to have passed through a layer of water, and slowly traveled over!
This must be one of his special abilities as a toad. Thinking about this, I felt like I had connected everything that was happening in front of me.
If that's the case, then our chances of survival will increase significantly. I think given the toad's current size, we definitely wouldn't be able to fight it head-on.
Let alone his big mouth, the way he slammed his fist on the ground in the mural just now, that kind of aggressive state, was already completely unacceptable to me.
However, there is still a question: why can't we use it now? Is it because the contract I have with this monster has sensed that there are insects on it, or that it looks like a toad?
So they specifically placed me and the girl here, hoping to give us some hope of survival?
That's even more outrageous! From beginning to end, this agreement has only brought us negative effects!
Moreover, for me, apart from relieving the burning sensation in my body, it did nothing else of any use.
I simply can't believe this thing can predict the future and sense potential danger, allowing it to make adjustments for me and the girl...
I tried moving my legs again, and this time they felt heavier than before.
I glanced at the girl, and she was in a similar state, struggling to move and expending tremendous effort with each step.
And I could see it clearly: with the slightest movement, this guy would twitch his tongue, almost as if he were about to slap it right in our faces.
I couldn't help but curse inwardly. The longer I stayed in this room, the more questions I had!
Then I gritted my teeth and looked warily at the big fat man in front of me.
At this moment, his eyes were still bloodshot and swirling around.
At the same time, the ferocious feeling from before has now begun to shimmer with a kind of light.
I'm even more puzzled now. Good grief, are you going to start having fun on your own, you monster?
I looked closely, and the light in his eyes seemed to be full of excitement.
You haven't eaten anything, what are you doing here? Does this guy already think he's got the game figured out? Or does he see us like we're two flies...?
I couldn't help but feel a wave of fear, and at the same time, my back was covered in a layer of sweat.
"Brother...did you hear that guy talking again...?"
