Chapter 799: Chapter 803: The Third Test 36
The shrewd Beastmen who slowed down earlier, although they did not steady themselves immediately, made subtle adjustments to their posture, preserving their stationary position.
But the Beastman who had not decelerated, even overtaken Su Tang and their group, continued to move forward.
Unable to stop promptly after hearing the count of three because of inertia, he stumbled forward a few more steps before sitting down on his knees.
The scene became deadly silent instantly.
All eyes were fixed on the fallen Beastman.
The Beastman seemed to sense that something was wrong. He anxiously lifted his head, waited for a couple of seconds, but nothing happened.
He looked back cluelessly and dumbfoundedly at the Beast Soldiers’ squad leader.
"Don’t..."
The squad leader’s eyes flashed with rage, but it was too late to warn him.
For, Old Black Mountain Monster’s androgynous voice was already resounding.
"Oh dear, we have caught a competitor who doesn’t respect the test rules. What a headache, what should we do?"
Everyone stood still.
The Beastman, knowing that Old Black Mountain Monster was talking about him, became even more anxious.
He got up from the ground, sprinting in the direction of the Beast Soldier squad leader.
His voice, twisted with fear, pleaded, "Bo, boss, save me!"
Seeing this, the squad leader’s face turned pallid!
But bound by the rules of this test, he didn’t dare to move.
His eyes glared fiercely at the Beast Soldier running towards him.
He looked as if he would rather shred him into a thousand pieces.
If looks could kill, that Beast Soldier would have already been dead a thousand times over.
As the Beast Soldier got closer and closer, the squad leader’s heart pounded wildly.
Fortunately, Old Black Mountain Monster’s voice sounded again
"The punishment for the competitor who does not respect the test rules, of course, is turning into a Sand Person, hehehe...."
Then, a faint white light emerged from the dust, directly illuminating the Beastman.
The next second, the Beastman’s body stiffened.
His face held an implausible, incredulous expression of surprise. He was staring, almost a footstep away, at the Beast Soldier’s squad leader.
Then, the Beastman’s exposed skin began to turn into sand at a visible speed.
The entire process didn’t last long, just about five seconds.
That Beastman, from head to toe, including every strand of hair, had turned into sand, becoming a real-life Sand Sculpture.
(Oops! Haha, Sorry, I couldn’t help but laugh while writing this.)
The Beast Soldiers’ squad leader looked at the ’Sand Sculpture’ in front of him, his face had frozen, expressionless.
Not only that.
An evil gust of wind blew from somewhere, the ’Sand Sculpture,’ like an empty shell, suddenly dispersed.
It turned into a heap of yellow sand, forming a Sandbag right in front of the Beast Soldiers’ squad leader.
Beast Soldiers’ squad leader: "...."
Everyone was startled by this abrupt event.
Everyone’s hearts were thumping wildly inside their chests. After all, seeing a living creature turn into a Sand Sculpture and then cease to have life was a first for everyone.
Su Tang also felt a chill run down her spine.
Just as everyone thought this round was over, Old Black Mountain Monster’s voice echoed again.
"Hmm... the competitor who leads the race, do you have any questions for me? Only questions about the test."
With this reminder.
Everyone remembered.
The steward had indeed stated during the rule announcement that the competitor at the frontmost position could ask Old Black Mountain Monster a question.
