Chapter 203 202. I Love Peace
Staying here will surely mean death, but not all demons are ready to face death.
While Shou, who was asked to escape, was still hesitating, another senior warrior took the lead, turned around and left the team, running towards the passage they came from!
"I said we should move south. I said... it's all your fault! Yan Yan! It was all your idea. You should take the responsibility!"
The desertion of a superior soldier directly ignited the fear that was already weighing on everyone's hearts. Several frightened soldiers cried and screamed, pushed aside their companions who were blocking their way and followed.
"Coward!" one of the soldiers who stayed behind spat fiercely.
And Yan Yan didn't even look at the escapees, his eyes were fixed on the two huge evil eyes.
And the Chiss seemed to have finally gathered and started hunting. The six-clawed figures disappeared into the shadows, and the beetles covered the ground like a tide.
"Hun! Run!"
Under his urging, Shouye had no choice but to grit his teeth and turn around.
But before Shou and his men could run a few steps, something unexpected happened.
As soon as the figures of those soldiers who fled to the passage disappeared into the darkness, short screams suddenly rang out from it!
What followed was the teeth-grinding tearing sound and greedy chewing sound!
Several six-clawed monsters covered in blood walked out of the passage. Even if they were senior warriors, they would die quickly and efficiently from such a sneak attack after losing their composure.
The retreat route was also blocked, and Chis's real encirclement was completely closed at this moment, and everyone was completely trapped.
"Kill!" Yan roared and rushed out first!
Despair ignited the final madness, and the battle instantly entered its most brutal stage.
The warriors roared, and every slash and stab was carried with the momentum of dying together.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and broken limbs and arms mixed with Chiss's purple blood splattered everywhere.
Demons kept falling.
A warrior rolled over and stabbed to death a six-clawed monster whose position was exposed by the blood on the ground. Before he could draw out his spear, he was knocked down by three other Chiss and torn into pieces in an instant.
A senior warrior swung his weapon into a death storm, and any Chiss that approached would be chopped into pieces. However, under the "care" of the two evil eyes, his joints were petrified, his weapons fell out of his hands, and he was immediately overwhelmed by the swarming Chiss.
In the cave, a layer of blood and flesh quagmire mixed with the remains of demons and Chiss quickly accumulated, and the air was filled with the disgusting smell of death.
The hunter, covered in purple blood, felt that his arms were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and every time he swung them, it seemed as if his bones would be shaken out.
Qiong behind him held high a dazzling ball of light that could break the invisibility, and at the same time continuously threw it to stimulate potential at his companions. He was hit by dizziness caused by the high-intensity squeeze of magic power, and he just mechanically gave himself another awakening spell.
This is a hopeless battle, with only endless bugs in sight.
Just when everyone was about to be crushed by this flesh and blood millstone——
"Odd...I...ha..."
The vague sound came from somewhere in the tunnel, and it was full of weirdness layer by layer.
The hunters didn't understand what it meant and thought it was the roar of a Chiss, but an old warrior muttered in confusion: "Human?"
And just after the sound appeared, an even more bizarre scene happened!
The Chiss army, which had been attacking frantically and in an orderly manner a second ago, seemed to have been paused!
Whether it was wielding sharp claws, spraying acid, or preparing to become invisible, even the two evil eyes emitting terrifying pressure, were all completely frozen at the same moment!
The movement was frozen, and even the annoying "hissing" sound stopped abruptly!
The entire cave fell into deathly silence, with only the sound of heavy breathing and dripping blood.
The sudden silence was more eerie than the previous noise.
"what happened?"
Chance!
Some of the tribesmen were still in a daze, but Yan Yan was the first to react. The despair in his eyes was instantly replaced by a madness of grasping at the last straw!
"Go that way!" He roared wildly, and using all his strength, he swung the sledgehammer covered in blood and meat scraps fiercely in the weakest direction of the insect swarm, and tore a gap in the solidified insect wall for escape!
Shou didn't hesitate at all. He grabbed the dazed Qiong and rushed towards the bloody path cut open by Yan!
He ignored the others, and they were the only two young people left who had persisted until now.
The two evil eyes were the first to "wake up" from their stiffness, and pale rays burst out from their huge eyeballs!
The rays passed through the team, but Shou was fortunately not affected and successfully got into the passage.
The other Chises also recovered, but they were no longer as comfortable as before. Some of them rushed towards the crowd, obviously not intending to let go of the duck in their mouths, but more Chises turned around and rushed in one direction. It seemed that they heard a roar coming from the distance.
Although there were only a small number of Chiss, it was still deadly to the team that now had less than ten people left.
Yan Yan and several soldiers who were too seriously injured and knew they could not escape turned around and blocked the narrow entrance of the cave.
"Walk--!"
The sound of shells shattering, Chiss's crazy roar, the dull thud of sledgehammers hitting the ground, the roar in the distance...all the sounds mixed together behind him.
When Shou looked back for the last time, he saw the bloody figure of Yan Yan being completely submerged by countless Qis.
The dark passage stretched forward, and there was a hellish roar behind him. Shou gritted his teeth and dragged the almost unconscious Qiong forward.
When he finally climbed out of the cave and returned to the stone fortress, there was no other tribesman around him except Qiong.
He had gathered the strength of almost the entire tribe, nearly forty of the strongest warriors...and in the end, the only ones who set out on the journey home were himself and Qiong?
Even the broken magic cores of those tribesmen could not be brought back!
When he looked at Qiong beside him, more pain came over him. One of Qiong's hands and one of his feet had disappeared, leaving only petrified fragments at the edges.
"Qiong..."
Just then——
Click…click…click…
The dense, crisp, and scalp-numbing sound of arthropods hitting the stone slabs came from all around.
The sound came from far away at an extremely fast speed, and soon many figures surrounded the two people.
It’s over!
This thought clearly appeared in Shou's mind.
Shou held the dome in one hand and raised the broken bone spear in the other, ready for the final battle.
There was nothing to be unwilling about, he had already tried his best. All he could say was that everything was doomed from the moment he entered the stone fortress.
However, the expected attack did not come.
After completing the encirclement, a glowing green eyeworm floated over, and a voice appeared in Shou and Qiong's minds at the same time.
"Me, love, peace, talk?"
