Chapter 359 - 64
Li Zhiyuan was about to shout a reminder, but just as the sound reached his throat and before he could yell out, a surveyor suddenly shot up into the air.
Everyone was shocked and looked up, shining multiple flashlight beams upwards, only to see a thick figure rising and swinging violently in the chaos.
This scene caused the situation to completely fall apart.
The lifted body fell rapidly, and its lantern-like eyes traced two red streaks across the night sky before charging straight towards the cave.
Everything happened too fast and too urgently. Some of the surveyors outside were frozen in shock, while others who tried to scramble up couldn’t, their knees giving out, all amid primal screams and shouts.
Under normal circumstances, these surveyors who work outdoors all year round and have some organizational skills wouldn’t be so panicked, but the problem was that facing such a creature suddenly emerging from the darkness of the night, being petrified was a normal human reaction.
Comparatively, Li Zhiyuan and his three companions, who had experienced numerous eerie events, had stronger endurance. While others were still lost and clueless, Run Sheng reached out to grab Li Zhiyuan’s arm, ready to carry the boy on his back, while Xue Liangliang and Tan Wenbin supported each other to their feet.
Logically, they should have a better chance to dodge and move than the others, but paradoxically, those "two big lanterns" ignored everyone else on the riverbank and charged straight at them.
This was its cave, and now it wanted to come home.
