The Supreme Beauty Fell in Love with Me

Song Hui murmured: "This won't work. We know nothing about that monster right now, and if we act separately, we might not be able to rescue each other in time. I think it's better if we stay together."

"Yes, we can't split up." Hema also disagreed with splitting up.

At this moment, Miss Lan was thinking about Lin Chuan and said, "Everyone, stop arguing, let's hurry and find the captain first."

"Damn, what's that?" Miss Lan had just finished speaking when Old Niu suddenly shouted.

The group quickly looked at Old Niu, only to find him staring at the ground in front of him, where a strange creature resembling a lizard was staring at them.

This creature was as big as a lizard from the desert, but instead of being gray-brown, its body was pitch black, with small eyes that flickered with an eerie red light.

Hiss…

Suddenly, the lizard-like creature emitted a strange sound and leaped towards Old Niu.

Old Niu didn't have time to think. He fired back with his assault rifle at the creature.

The creature was extremely agile in mid-air; as it reached Old Niu, it twisted its body, and before Old Niu could dodge, it slipped inside his shirt collar.

Ah…

As the creature burrowed into Old Niu's clothing, he let out a scream, staring blankly at the others, his facial expression seemingly filled with terror.

"Old Niu." The group was beside Old Niu when Hema shouted, reaching out to grab him.

Before Hema's hand could touch Old Niu, his body started shaking violently, his eyes turning vacant, followed by a terrifying scene.

Old Niu's body began to shrink rapidly, and in an instant, he was gone.

In the spot where Old Niu had stood, only a puddle of viscous liquid remained, and the lizard-like creature was in the middle of it.

The incident happened so suddenly; within just two minutes, living Old Niu was gone.

"Old Niu." Hema had always been close to Old Niu. Seeing him suddenly transformed into a puddle of viscous liquid, he shouted, aiming his assault rifle at the creature and began to fire.

What kind of monster is this, to make a living person disappear in an instant?

Hema roared, firing dozens of bullets at the creature, which after being hit, let out a wail and turned into mush.

Hiss…

After the creature's wail, one or two hundred more of these monsters suddenly appeared all around, each staring at the group.

Yesterday, they were surrounded by a swarm of snakes but nothing happened. Today, they encountered these monsters and lost Old Niu.

Guided by Little Snake, Lin Chuan had just arrived, and upon seeing hundreds of monsters attacking the group, he shouted, charging in like lightning. While in mid-air, he swung his right palm, sending a powerful energy wave towards the monsters rushing at the group.

Boom…

The power of this strike was more than Lin Chuan had anticipated, not only shattering dozens of monsters but also leaving a millstone-sized pit in the ground.

At this time, Miss Lan and the others hadn't clearly seen Lin Chuan, only hearing his shout and then witnessing the monsters being blasted away by his palm strike, leaving them stunned.

They knew Lin Chuan was strong, but not to such a terrifying level.

Lin Chuan's figure flickered as he arrived in front of the group, too rushed to greet them before his hands unleashed continuous strikes. Hundreds of monsters began to die under the force of his palms; only a dozen or so managed to flee in panic.

Some of the low bushes around were uprooted and scattered under Lin Chuan's palm power.

Miss Lan and the others were dumbfounded, staring at Lin Chuan, speechless.

Having repelled hundreds of monsters, Lin Chuan turned to look at the stunned group and said, "What's wrong with you, where is Old Niu?"

As they mentioned Old Niu, the group couldn't help but show sadness, Miss Lan cried.

"Captain, Old Niu is dead." Hema said sadly.

Lin Chuan was stunned. Yesterday he was fine, how did he die today? He quickly asked what happened.

Song Hui explained the situation to Lin Chuan, who felt not just sadness but also surprise at how these monsters could make a person vanish instantly.

What exactly are these monsters? Could they be related to the heavenly tribulation? Perhaps that Spirit Snake knows the origin of these monsters, so he beckoned towards Little Snake.

Little Snake was perched on a branch five or six meters in front of Lin Chuan, and upon seeing Lin Chuan beckon, it flashed with gold light and landed on Lin Chuan's right shoulder.

Miss Lan and the others hadn't recovered from their sadness and, seeing a flash of gold light come to rest on Lin Chuan's shoulder, widened their eyes.

"Do you know the origin of those monsters just now?" Lin Chuan said to Little Snake.

The Little Snake hissed twice, nodded its head, but appeared somewhat scared.

"Can you take me to find them?" Lin Chuan saw the Little Snake nodding, so he spoke again.

Miss Lan and the others were left dumbfounded. It had only been a day since they parted ways with Lin Chuan, and not only did he acquire terrifying skills, but he also brought back a Little Snake that could understand human language.

The Little Snake, hearing Lin Chuan's words, hissed continuously, its body spiraling upwards, shaking its head and tail. It was evidently afraid of these monsters and was unwilling to lead Lin Chuan to them.

Previously, Lin Chuan would have had absolutely no confidence in dealing with these monsters, but ever since practicing the Heavenly Heart Skill, his confidence had greatly increased.

"Take me to find them." Old Niu was brutally killed by these monsters, and this vendetta must be avenged. Moreover, wasn't the reason that Lin Chuan and all members of the Dark Soldier came here precisely to find these monsters?

The Little Snake swirled around in the air and finally nodded its head, agreeing to take Lin Chuan to find these monsters.

Miss Lan and the others wouldn't be much help if they went along. Lin Chuan looked at them and said, "You should return to the outpost and wait for me. I'll explain everything after I finish off the monsters and return."

Miss Lan was anxious to hear this, and said, "Captain, this won't do. We can't let you take the risk alone."

Hema said, "Miss Lan is right, Captain. You should let us go with you."

Song Hui and Xiao Han also disagreed with Lin Chuan going alone. Lin Chuan's face turned serious, and he said sternly, "That's an order. You must follow it."

After saying that, he turned to the Little Snake and said, "Let's go."

The Little Snake twisted its body, and a glint of gold disappeared ahead. Lin Chuan looked at the others, smiled faintly, and his figure moved, disappearing in front of them.

"Oh my, the Captain's speed is like a ghost. It's too shocking!" Hema said to the three of them with a surprised look.

Indeed, Lin Chuan's speed was something no ordinary person could achieve.

"It seems the Captain must have had some kind of encounter. We don't need to worry about him. Let's just follow his orders and wait for him at the outpost." Song Hui said.

Miss Lan gazed toward where Lin Chuan had disappeared, her delicate face worrying but still followed the three back to the outpost.

Lin Chuan, following the Little Snake, dashed through the dense forest so fast they were almost only visible as a blur. This was Lin Chuan's intention to compete with the Little Snake in speed, utilizing all his strength.

After weaving through the forest for about an hour, Lin Chuan gradually caught a pungent smell, and ahead were towering trees, no longer the ground overgrown with low-lying shrubs.

The pungent smell became stronger, making him dizzy and light-headed. Lin Chuan promptly slowed down, employing the Heavenly Heart Skill and Sealing Heart Skill, which thoroughly eliminated the dizzy feeling.

At this moment, the Little Snake also slowed down, seemingly frightened of these monsters, making hissing sounds towards Lin Chuan intermittently.

After walking forward for about ten more minutes, the Little Snake stopped, its small eyes looking at Lin Chuan.

The pungent smell ahead was extremely intense, and the trees were sparse. Lin Chuan halted, calmed his mind briefly, then moved his footsteps, slowly progressing ahead.

After walking for around a hundred meters, it brightened in front of him. A lake appeared.

The lake wasn't large, and one could see its end at a glance. The water in the lake was very clear, with sunlight reflecting off the lake surface, creating sparkling waves.

The blue sky and clear water created such a beautiful scene.

Lin Chuan stopped by the lake and looked back for the Little Snake, but it hadn't followed him.

Could the monsters be hiding in this lake? Lin Chuan found it hard to believe. How could such a beautiful place be inhabited by harmful monsters?

After lingering by the lakeside for a few minutes and still not seeing any trace of those monsters, Lin Chuan shouted loudly, "Little one, come over here. There are no monsters here."

Lin Chuan was calling to the Little Snake, aware that the little creature was somewhat afraid of these monsters, hence hoping to lure it out.

Who would have thought, just after his words fell, the calm water surface of the lake suddenly rippled, followed by the entire lake starting to shake violently. A gigantic monster erupted from the lakewater, bringing up a water column.

This gigantic monster was three to four meters long, resembling a lizard, essentially a larger version of the smaller monsters from earlier.

Roar...

The giant monster brought up a water column, shooting up to the sky, looking terrifying in midair. Its long tail swept a massive wave towards Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan was already on guard, swiftly dodging, following with a leap up three or four meters high, channeling all his strength into his palms, attacking the giant monster vigorously.

Boom...

The force between Lin Chuan's palms smashed into the giant wave stirred up by the monster with a massive sound, shattering the incoming wave.

The monster let out a roar, whipping up a violent wind, sweeping towards Lin Chuan's direction.

Lin Chuan dared not be careless, performing a beautiful aerial flip, dodging the violent wind like lightning.

The gigantic monster, seemingly surprised Lin Chuan could dodge it, let out another roar, and countless small monsters densely flew out from the water surface.
