Chapter 5: The Terrifying Forest
Sun Qichao was panting heavily, his pace decreased, and the gap between him and the others became much wider. Eventually, he voiced weakly: “Wait, wait for me… No, I really can’t run… I can’t! Even if I die, I can’t run even if I’m to die…”
“Qichao, hold on!”
At this time, a girl slowed down and came to Sun Qichao’s side, pulling him to run together. This was his girlfriend, Tang Lei, a student in Class 9 of the Fine Arts School. She didn’t possess a particularly attractive or good figure, but she was cheerful and energetic in their classroom. Everyone had a good impression of her. Tang Lei had killed a goblin slave before, so her physique was much better than that of ordinary people; otherwise, she would have fallen behind, and she wouldn’t have had the ability to help anyone.
Sun Qichao turned pale and said, “I can’t run anymore, leave me alone; just run away…”
Tang Lei felt very contradictory in her heart. She was terrified and hoped to run away immediately, but she felt a little sorry for her boyfriend; thus, she fell into a dilemma.
“Roar–“
The unlucky boyfriend was about to say something when a terrible roar echoed beside his ears. He looked sideways with a pale face and saw a gray figure rushing out of the woods. Its huge body landed with a muffled bang, and its strong limbs slammed down hard into the ground. As soon as it kicked the earth, a large number of dead leaves and soil were thrown up in the air; it was charging at an alarming speed.
His pupils shrank suddenly; he was terrified at the sight of this frightening wolf!
A giant gray-furred wolf almost half the height of a man!
