Chapter 903: Chapter 108 Spirit World Invasion_3
“Hold on to me!”
Then, Zhao Yu, like a monkey possessed, rapidly descended; in the blink of an eye, he dropped from the towering height of dozens of meters to the ground.
Looking up again, the monster was right above them, and the people who had been stuck up there a moment ago had also come down.
Only, their descent was not like that of Zhao Yu and his companions—they had been thrown down.
The monster clearly knew that humans would die if they fell from such a height, so it had deliberately tossed them down.
It seemed to be waiting for all the people to die before it would slowly enjoy its meal.
“Run~~!”
The people who had reached the ground, without a second thought, dispersed in all directions.
Zhao Yu, however, did not rush to run; instead, he kept his eyes on the monster’s movements.
Blind flight would only surrender fate to the enemy; only by identifying the pattern was there a sliver of chance for survival.
As expected, after chasing down a few more people, the monster returned to the iron chain and went back up.
Clearly, in its mind, the people on the ground couldn’t escape, they were all as good as dead, but there were still many on the iron chain that needed to be chased down one by one.
“There are definitely more than one of these monsters~!”
The monster Zhao Yu had seen the night before was of the same type as the one before him now but with slight differences in appearance.
“So, underground, it’s possible to encounter the same kind of…”
Suddenly, he furrowed his brow; if these monsters lived in groups and could hunt together, then their spreading out in panic would only…
As he had suspected, screams of terror began to rise from all directions.
This meant that the lurking monsters were not limited to one but were many.
What to do?!
In such a moment, Zhao Yu’s brain whirred into overdrive, and soon, he had an idea.
“Zhao Yu, are we not running?!”
Zheng Qianqian had intended to run with the others, but when she noticed Zhao Yu standing still, she gritted her teeth and stayed.
After all, if it weren’t for Zhao Yu carrying her earlier, she would be a dead woman by now.
Zhao Yu glanced at her, and he quite admired her actions.
At a time like this, anyone else would have just turned and run, not caring about the lifesaver or anyone else—preserving their own life was paramount.
But Zheng Qianqian hadn’t run, which reflected well on her character.
“Stick with me, and I guarantee you’ll live longer than the rest!”
At this moment, besides corpses, there were no others alive around them, and Zhao Yu confidently asserted.
As for the other six classmates, they had scattered away with the frantic crowd as soon as they hit the ground.
“Okay…”
Zheng Qianqian’s face blushed, and she lowered her head, following behind Zhao Yu.
But soon, she was startled into a cold sweat.
She realized that Zhao Yu was following the monster on the iron chain.
If not for the vertical distance, they were only about a dozen meters parallel to it.
As if reading her mind, Zhao Yu said indifferently, “Since they hunt in coordination, the space directly beneath this one is the safest. It’s responsible for driving the prey down—the ground prey isn’t its concern…”
“And the other hunters won’t come hunting right below it to prevent the prey from not descending…”
Zheng Qianqian was stunned; she hadn’t expected that at a time like this, Zhao Yu could analyze so much.
Whether it was true or not, at the very least, compared to the constant screams outside, their location was truly secure.
Along their way, although the screams were relentless, no one approached them because the monster and the iron chain above were the greatest threat.
After a while, Zheng Qianqian gradually calmed down, her heart warming as she gazed at Zhao Yu’s figure.
This was her first experience with a life-and-death crisis, and suddenly, she felt she had always lived too cautiously—or perhaps too timidly.
If I can make it out of this alive, I wish…
She moved her lips but in the end, she didn’t speak out, “Zhao Yu, can we survive this?”
“I don’t know!”
Zhao Yu shook his head.
He truly didn’t know if they could survive.
Logically, if Titan Star harbored such monsters yet had a population of a trillion, this suggested either that humans possessed comparable strength to resist, or that these monsters would disappear after a certain period.
Regardless, all he could do was delay as long as possible to become the last one to die.
If all the tourists were dead with no turnaround in sight, Zhao Yu would have to fight a desperate battle.
With his current physical condition, facing a Tier 1 strength monster, almost certainly spelled defeat, but he had to try.
Time slowly passed, and the screams in the distance grew more and more sparse. It was unclear whether it was because too many had died or the others had fled far away.
“Bang~!” “Bang~!”
Suddenly, Zhao Yu heard some strange sounds, resembling the noise of battle.
After listening for a while, a smile appeared on Zhao Yu’s face.
It was indeed the sound of fighting!
This meant his guess was correct; this world, being a sixth-tier world capable of sustaining a population of a trillion, must indeed have its own strengths.
Although he was tempted to go see for himself, Zhao Yu knew that going over there right now might result in getting wounded by mistake; it was better to wait and see how things unfolded.
A few more minutes passed, and finally, three figures appeared in front of them.
“A level one high-tier Spirit Ghoul spotted, along with two living humans…”
