Chapter 2152.5- Blood Battlefield (5)
Lady Star was truly anxious.
No one in the Star-Eye Clan could be lost except Ye Zhongming. If the First Squad hesitated and failed to retreat before the Heavy-Hammer Apes began their charge, it would certainly be too late. Even if they retreated, they would be caught.
But there was no further response from Ye Zhongming. Just as Lady Star was about to use her authority as clan leader to order him back, something unexpected happened.
The source of this change was the metal balls that had rolled down to the base of the slope.
On the path, they had served a purpose. Their hardness, combined with the treated surface of the path, prevented them from being crushed. Anything that stepped on them lost balance and rolled down.
But at the base of the slope, they were harmless. The soft ground could not support a beast's weight on the balls; the balls would simply be pressed into the earth, losing all effect.
Even where the ground was firm enough, the flat terrain meant a beast might stumble but quickly regain its footing.
So these scattered balls had faded from attention.
