The Fantastical Beasts at World's End

Although Ye Zhao spoke calmly, it can be seen from his slightly arched body and pale lips that he is in a very bad condition now, and it is certain that the wound will be torn.There were so many animals attacking him just now, even if Xia Zhiming and Luo Xiaochen wanted to help him, they couldn't stop all those who approached him.

"Ye Zhao, how about I carry you down the mountain?" Luo Xiaochen asked tentatively.

Ye Zhao shook his head, and said lightly, "I haven't reached the point where I can't walk, let's talk about it later. Besides, your arm was injured just now." He has always been very stubborn, and he doesn't like to rely on others. Of course, Nie Renyan was an exception.

Hearing what he said, Luo Xiaochen was taken aback for a moment, then stretched out his left arm to look at it, only to belatedly realize that it had been scratched.The ocelot's claws were quite sharp, directly piercing through his coat and shirt, leaving three long and deep gashs on the outer skin of his upper arm.He seemed to have just felt the pain, "hissing" took two breaths, and said, "Are the claws of that thing poisonous? Why does it feel like the wound is burning?"

Seeing that Xia Zhiming opened his mouth to him, Ye Zhao seemed to be planning to say "I'll carry you" from the shape of his mouth, so he waved his hand to stop him before he could say anything: "Don't be too brave, there's something on your knees!" The color is obviously darker than other places, not to mention sweaty."

Xia Zhiming shut up awkwardly, his knee was indeed hurt, and he was bitten by that black piebald snake. Fortunately, it should be a non-poisonous snake, otherwise the first thing it bites down is Xia Zhiming's body through its teeth Inject venom.However, because there were only two small holes that were torn open, the blood seeping out was not too much, and only a small piece of the knee was stained with blood.Probably because it was torn too suddenly, the knee is slightly swollen now, and walking is a bit uncomfortable, accompanied by burning pain.

The three of them were all wounded, and just after taking two steps, Xia Zhiming suddenly looked back and said, "Our two injuries, his is on the shoulder, but mine is not obvious at all, why did you pay attention Arrived? During the fight just now, you can still take care of us with your spare time?"

"I noticed a change in my body this morning." Ye Zhao put his hand in his pocket and pressed hard on his waist twice. The pain area became larger, but it was not so sharp. "My vision and hearing have become a little abnormal, especially sensitive."

"No wonder!" Luo Xiaochen covered the wound on his left arm with his right hand, and said, "When we couldn't hear anything before, you could hear the movement of those things." He thought for a while, stretched out his finger and scratched his chin , "Ah, speaking of it, it seems to be the last thing I heard... It seems that I can't sleep with headphones plugged in in the future, it will affect my hearing too much, and it will be fatal at critical moments!"

Ye Zhao: "...I didn't find any sign of you being killed."

Xia Zhiming: "...the one who howls the most might be the most courageous."

Luo Xiaochen: "..."

Just as they were talking, they heard a very strange sound faintly coming from behind, like the sound of viscous water being gently stirred.

"Fuck! What a ghostly voice!" Luo Xiaochen couldn't help but glance back, "I have a bad feeling!"

Xia Zhiming was upset: "No one will have a good hunch at this time, okay?"

"Fuck!"

Because Luo Xiaochen stood at the back, tall and tall, blocking the sight of Xia Zhiming and Ye Zhao, his words made the two who were one step ahead of him look at each other, turned around and walked to him, wanting to see what happened behind him what.

Immediately afterwards, they saw a very strange scene——

The snails that crawled slowly in common sense moved like crazy and moved very fast. They moved down from the tree trunks in groups, and quickly squirmed to the corpses of those leopard cats, piebald snakes, and individual fallen strange birds. A hundred or so snails quickly surrounded one of the corpses, like a rising tide of sea water, submerging everything in an instant.Except for the shaking round snail shells with various patterns, the corpse itself can no longer be seen.

Only about ten seconds later, the piles of snails moved aside like the ebbing sea water, and quickly squirmed towards another corpse again, leaving only a skeleton that had been eaten clean of flesh and blood.

"Damn it!" Luo Xiaochen gasped, and said in a low voice, "What are you looking at! Go, you can't stay in this kind of place for a second, damn! Even snails eat meat!" He reached out and pushed Ye Zhao and Xia Zhiming, signaling them not to look, and to leave here quickly, "The current taste of these crazy snails prefers corpses to living people, let's hurry down the mountain! It's too, too scary!" QAQ Ye Zhaoshun With his thrust, he turned and walked towards the direction of the downhill, quickened his pace, but did not make too much noise, causing the group of snails to feel obvious vibrations.He stretched his long legs, crossed a deep ditch, and said to Luo Xiaochen calmly: "Snails have carnivorous species."

"..." Xia Zhiming's mouth twitched, "The point is wrong."

Far away from those crazy snails, the three endured their injuries and walked quickly down the narrow stone steps down the mountain. Ye Zhao suddenly asked, "Do you think the animals you met this time are strange?"

"..." Luo Xiaochen was speechless for a while, and said: "Thank you for reminding me, old man, I finally found out that those animals are not normal..."

Ye Zhao glanced at him, and said: "No. I mean, leopard cats, snakes, spiders, lizards, strange birds, etc. Did these animals divide labor and cooperate in the same way before and hunted together? Obviously not, so why did it happen this time? , like an appointment."

"It's really weird to say." Xia Zhiming stroked the stubble on his chin, and said, "Thinking about the situation just now, it feels more like...someone commanded them to do this."

Luo Xiaochen wept bitterly: "...Are you sure it's a human?"

Xia Zhiming said firmly, "Not sure."

Luo Xiaochen: "...I hope it's a human being."

Ye Zhao: "The possibility is very small."

Luo Xiaochen: "...you seem to enjoy hitting my hopes for fun."

Ye Zhao shrugged: "You finally found out."

Luo Xiaochen: "..."

"However——" Xia Zhiming continued to analyze earlier, "It's more like manipulating the mind than commanding. Don't you think that the eyes of those animals are a bit empty besides being very hungry?"

Luo Xiaochen: "I always thought it was starvation..."

Ye Zhao and Xia Zhiming: "..."

"If it's being emptied of mind—" Luo Xiaochen seldom used his brain to ask a little question, "What is the purpose of the person who manipulates them? To be honest, such a group will not only cause chaos and make us rush, but then in the group Being injured in the attack itself is not very threatening, so what is the reason for this person to arrange these things?"

As if to answer his words, in the next second, a door appeared in front of their eyes, with complicated patterns on it, which looked strangely like runes, and then the door was opened, and a black figure suddenly jumped out of it.
