Chapter 803: Chapter 807: The Third Test 40
The first hourglass had not yet reached half its duration when three people had already lost their lives to this trial.
If you include the one who was devoured by the Insect Beast earlier, four competitors had already been eliminated.
Currently, the team led by the Beast Soldiers had the fewest members, followed by Bai Ling’s team, while Su Tang’s squad had remained intact from the beginning.
"The competitor running at the front, do you have any questions you want to ask me? Only questions about the trial, though~"
The Beastman in the lead watched as various snakes and centipedes swarmed past his feet, rushing towards the Beastman who had lost his water bottle.
Piercing screams echoed in his ears, and the crunching sound of the Insect Beasts gnawing on flesh was particularly grating, with a faint hint of blood smell wafting in the air.
He was nearly scared out of his wits, how could he have the composure to ask the Black Mountain Demon any questions?
"No, nothing, I have no questions."
Bai Ling looked at the Beastman with frustration, but ultimately said nothing. 𝒏𝒐𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
The Black Mountain Demon sighed regretfully, "Well then, let’s continue, are you ready? I’m going to start counting again~"
This time, no one moved forward; instead, they all began to move back.
Bai Ling stood still, applying another layer of Holy Water to himself.
So when the countdown ended, he became the lead, with Gaiyin and Su Tang’s team not far behind him.
After the Insect Beasts had devoured the Beastman to the point where not even bone scraps remained, they began to crawl towards the crowd again.
Su Tang closed her eyes in fright.
Her body hair stood on end as she only heard the continuous rustling sound by her ears.
The Insect Beasts passed by Bai Ling, passed by Su Tang and Gaiyin, and headed straight for several Beast Soldiers.
A Beast Soldier, panic-stricken, yelled, "Get away! Quick, get away! Haven’t I already applied the Holy Water? Why are these disgusting creatures still coming towards me!"
Another Beast Soldier was already being bitten and torn by the Insect Beasts, screaming in despair and helplessness, "Ah! Save me, I don’t want to die, I don’t! Ah!"
A swarm of Insect Beasts was crawling towards Bai Ling.
Bai Ling’s face did not show much fear; rather, she was frowning tightly, her expression one of disgust.
"Get lost, you filthy things, don’t come near me, or I’ll chop you up!"
The Insect Beasts, of course, couldn’t understand what Bai Ling was saying. They seemed bewitched, stubbornly crawling towards someone in particular.
As the Insect Beasts closed in, Bai Ling grew anxious.
She mobilized her abnormal abilities, raising a ring of fire half a meter away from herself, enveloping herself within it.
Perhaps affected by the ring of fire, the Insect Beasts hesitated for a moment, then turned away to approach others.
None wanted to become a Sand Sculpture, so everyone dared not move and could only watch as the Insect Beasts crawled towards them.
Especially the lead Beast Soldier.
He had already run to the very end of the team, but those Insect Beasts seemed to have fixated on him, refusing to let go.
The lead Beast Soldier’s face was almost twisted with anger!
But he couldn’t move, nor could he just let these Insect Beasts tear him apart, so he had no choice but to use his superpower to harden his skin once more.
"The competitor running at the front, do you have any questions you want to ask me? Only questions about the trial, though~"
Bai Ling at the front stared directly at the dark shadow through the dust.
"The Holy Water can’t protect us indefinitely, can it?"
