Chapter 1311: Use a Monster to Fight a Monster
At this point, Gu Fan could do nothing but lean quietly against the wall, incessantly praying in his heart for those ten brave mercenaries, hoping that more of them could survive.
Soon, the roars of the three-eyed monster were heard again, indicating that it had found the trail of the ten mercenaries and was furiously pursuing them. Even from a distance, one could feel the intense vibration of the ground.
Time ticked away as people continued to line up to enter the narrow sewage channel, one group not yet through before another arrived.
Gu Fan began to worry. Now the area was too crowded with people. If discovered by the three-eyed monster, it would be tantamount to catching them all in a single net.
"We must reduce the risk!" Gu Fan hoped that more people would volunteer as bait, but unfortunately, the bravest had already left first, and those remaining were selfish and unwilling to make a sacrifice.
What should he do? Gu Fan didn’t force anyone; it was understandable that everyone wanted to save their own lives at this time. But if no one was willing to act as bait, everyone might end up as the three-eyed monster’s dinner.
It was then that the artificial intelligence Xiaolan jumped out. Seeing Gu Fan looking downcast, she couldn’t help but gloat. "Look at your wound; it must hurt a lot. But to have escaped from a fight with the three-eyed monster, you are still the first."
"Thanks for the compliment, I don’t deserve it," Gu Fan said, and just then, another roar was heard, feeling closer this time, which sent everyone into immediate terror.
A hint of a smile crossed artificial intelligence Xiaolan’s face. "Those ten were brave indeed, but alas, to no avail. The scent of you all gathered here is a bit strong, the three-eyed monster’s sense of smell is still functional; it’ll find this place soon enough."
