BXBX NOVEL Chapter 324 Bad News!
And when hope appeared, they never hesitated to move and grab it firmly like they found a treasure or something.
As they started acting with all their might, William knew the front was secured right now. All he had to care about was the rear, and they got to just cover the remaining one thousand metres safely without getting much harm.
However… William underestimated the scary monster he was running away from.
When the explosions rang and filled the world with their echo, eating up lots of monsters that overstepped on the landmine while trying to get a bite at William and Sith\'s team, William noticed something quite disturbing.
The entire area got remodelled at the moment, with lots of trees ended up smashed down to pieces either by William\'s and Sith\'s team attacks or the incoming monsters\' berserk actions and movement.
The entire place was filled with flashing and dancing lights of different colours. Different techniques and attacks came with lots of glaring lights, turning this part of the forest into a dimly lit place.
And that got a little touch with the help of the raging fire from the landmine zone, painting the entire region with a scary and gloomy red and orange background.
And through this, William could feel something was off. He kept catching faint shadows moving at a far distance from time to time, while losing track of them whenever he tried to focus on these shadows.
For unknown reasons, he felt unexplained worry and restlessness deep inside him. It was as if he got eyed by a ferocious beast, as if that beast was standing just a few centimetres away from his face, and he was able to feel and smell its stingy breaths over his face.
It was a suffocating and annoying feeling. Without the need to think too much about this, he knew what brought such disturbance all of sudden to him.
"Pick up your speed, we are going to face that damn monster again if you keep moving like this!" and the moment he guessed what was happening, he didn\'t hesitate and shouted at Sith and others.
"Let it come! Our landmine could kill thousands of such monster if it dared to follow us inside!"
"Don\'t belittle it! Don\'t screw up at the last stretch!" William didn\'t like the overconfident tone that dude in Sith\'s team spoke with, "just kill faster, use everything you got and let\'s reach that damn place fast!"
"On it!" Sith shouted back, while giving his teammates a silent meaningful glance.
He didn\'t need to speak or say anything. William was the one who led them through all this hell, managed to bring them this close from the safe shore.
If he said there was a deadly threat coming at them right now, even if they were just less than one hundred metres away from that shore, then they would believe his warning and take it quite seriously.
And what William feared of happened!
The team crossed the first half of this distance quite fast. But the remaining half was a different story.
They were crossing one hundred metres now every five minutes. As the monsters got bombarded and killed by the landmine zone, the rest of monsters learnt their lesson and started to condense themselves, blocking the path between Sith\'s team and that promised land.
Each step taken came at the cost of a fervent killing and hellish brutal fighting between the two sides. And the team started to pick up wounds the more they walked forward.
In ten minutes, they crossed just two hundred metres. Sith got to look around their current location, before deciding where the safe path lay.
"We got to walk to that side for another half kilometre!"
"Fine!" William expected such a thing. After all, he just blindly led them here, not knowing where the safe path truly existed.
In fact, he felt reassured when he heard such a shout. He estimated they got more than one kilometre to cross, up to five actually in his worst estimates.
And just before he\'d heave a deep sigh of relief, he got to notice something looming at the far distance.
"It\'s coming folks!" He clenched his sword tighter, while watching a bizarre scene he never imagined seeing at this moment.
He knew that monsters didn\'t have such an intimate relationship that most spirit masters thought they had. The common rule stated that whenever a human was present, monsters would focus totally on him. And if humans weren\'t present, then monsters would start fight other monsters.
There were different reasons for monsters to fight others. For example, to express their rule over a certain piece of land, or to remove any threatening monsters over their reign. Other reasons might be just to fill their bellies, or even to force other monsters to follow their lead or something.
But right now, and when there were humans running in the middle of monsters, something unimaginable happened!
"That damn bastard! Did I kill his mother or what?!!" William\'s corners of the mouth twitched when he saw densely packed lines of exactly the same looking monster sweeping the sea of monsters blocking their path towards William and Sith\'s team.
If the monsters around were a sea, then the incoming copies of that Nightmare monster were like a mighty tsunami! They crushed, swept clean everything they faced, not even letting a single monster survive.
William knew amidst all these monsters, many silver ones were present. Not to mention those annoying gold grade monsters he fought against many times already.
If that monster decided to make such a reckless and crazy move, then it was coming prepared. And that made William knew without the need to see by his eyes that this monster brought silver, even gold grade clones in this army of it.
And that meant one thing…
