See, it was just a small bug crawling out, but the man didn't show any contempt on his face because of its small size.
The sense of crisis he had just felt was not wrong. This beetle that looked as black as coal must have some extraordinary qualities. It couldn't be as ordinary as it looked.
It was at least a mutant beast that had been promoted to the second level for some time. It could be seen from the thickness of the wind blade just now that he had hunted second-level mutant beasts before. However, except for the kings among the second-level beasts, ordinary second-level mutant beasts would never give him such a creepy feeling.
Its wind blade was very strong, and, even though it was right in front of this man, he still couldn't sense the breath of this little black beetle, but his eyes told him that it was clearly right in front of him, which was very scary.
The reason why he did not act rashly now was that he was trying to judge the intention of this mutant beast.
What this person subconsciously thought of was that this mutant beast was the boy's tamed beast, but he quickly threw this absurd idea out of his mind.
I was really scared to the point of being neurotic. How could a child who was not even an ordinary person be qualified to be favored by a mutant beast that could be considered a second-level king-level beast?
He immediately thought that someone might have set a trap for him, but then he ruled out this possibility as a very small idea. In this huge Yijinhuoluo Banner branch city, the strongest mutant beast should be the red blood of Ha Chimu. But even the red blood was only at the peak of the first level. No matter how strong it was, it would never take that step.
Thinking of Chixue, the man licked his dry lips with his tongue in an evil manner, with a greedy look in his eyes.
If I could eat the heart of the warhorse Chixue, with its strong and powerful heartbeat and noble bloodline, the taste would definitely be wonderful. I'm drooling just thinking about it.
This man completely ignored the existence of the obsidian worm because he had come to the conclusion that it was just a second-level mutant beast passing by. By chance, the boy put it into his backpack or hid in it to rest.
Then it will definitely not stand up for the two teenagers. As long as he doesn't move,
The mutant beasts will retreat on their own. It is best not to provoke such strange mutant beasts.
Unlike this man, the obsidian worm did not move because it was estimating its chances of killing the human in front of it. It had also learned its lesson and had not notified Zhang Mu until now. It did not send a warning to Zhang Mu as it had agreed before, once it found a human who met the requirements.
Although they couldn't communicate with each other due to the long distance they had to keep, they could still send a signal.
If Zhang Mu came, the benefits it could gain and the bargaining chips it had would be greatly reduced.
The obsidian worm was also influenced by Zhang Mu and was calculating greedily, but everything was done on the premise that it could kill the human. If it couldn't, it would have to call Zhang Mu in the end. It was a ten-kilometer journey and they would be able to get there quickly. At that time, they only needed to delay the man, and the difficulty of the task would be much simpler.
"Er Gouzi, tell me, what exactly is that bug? That man seems very scared. Let's take this opportunity to run. I think this bug must be very powerful. Let's run away first and teach him a lesson later."
The fat boy was no longer as flustered as before. He pulled Zhou Erzhu's sleeve and spoke in a very nervous manner, afraid of being discovered by the man. His voice was as soft as a mosquito, extremely quiet.
Zhou Erzhu did not reply to him. His back was already soaked with cold sweat. But he was only a teenager after all, and no matter how mature he was, he would not be much more mature. Especially after listening to the fat man's description just now, the image of this man in his mind had been completely demonized, just a god of death who came to reap their lives.
He nodded gently and said in the same low voice, "We will count to one, two, three and run together, then separate and run in different directions to see who he chases. It's better for one of us to survive, than to die together or die with you."
Although panicked, the precocious Zhou Erzhu calmly came up with a good escape plan, although he didn't know that at their speed it would be useless even if the man asked them to run in different directions for five kilometers.
Yang Hao's head is nodding now.
Like a chick pecking at rice, he listened to whatever Zhou Erzhu said. As long as he could stay away from this perverted killer, it would be better than waiting here for him to kill him. He still had a lot of snacks to eat. Aunt Wang next door had mentioned before that Yulian, who played with them, would be able to find a husband soon, but he had been thinking about it and it hadn't come true yet. How could he die here now?
Suddenly, Zhou Erzhu turned around and looked into Yang Hao's eyes. He said seriously and solemnly, "Haozi, do you think we are good brothers?"
The little fat boy was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Zhou Erzhu meant, and immediately said, "Of course."
"If you're brothers, then promise me one thing. It's best if we both survive, but it's OK if we both die. But no matter which one survives, you have to take good care of the other's parents, okay?"
Although his face was childish, it revealed a hint of confusion about death and longing for his family.
Yang Hao understood what he meant, and said very seriously, "Yes, brother, I promise you, and you have to promise me too, that if you die, I will take care of Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou for you."
Halfway through his speech, the little fat boy's eyes revealed a sadness and grief that shouldn't be there for his age, and he continued, "I have a lot of meat, so he will definitely come and eat me first. You should take the opportunity to run away quickly, and remember to avenge me."
His voice became softer and softer, until it was so soft that only he could hear it clearly.
"If I die, my parents will rely on you. We agreed to be brothers, so don't cheat."
Yang Hao's voice suddenly rang out. He looked at Zhou Erzhu and said seriously, "A man's agreement must be kept. Otherwise, when you die, I won't share my food with you in the underworld."
Zhou Erzhu was relieved of all the pressure after hearing Yang Hao's words. He smiled a relaxed smile that a 15 or 16-year-old boy should have and patted Yang Hao on the shoulder.
"Haozi, I'll count to three, two, one, and we'll run. I'll go east and you'll go west. If we run into the Scarlet Flame Wolf Riders, ask them to come and rescue us."
"good!"
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
"Haozi, run!"
