Chapter 2085: Chapter 2083: Intertwined Space-Time, Altered Lives (31)

There couldn’t possibly be just this one.

Thus, the remaining team member retreated in horror; today was utterly bizarre, as if they’d been cursed by heaven or controlled by a Demon, otherwise, how could thirty people leave only him?

By now, his face was ashen, holding his weapon while warily scanning the surroundings, carefully watching his step. This forest was familiar to them, yet they didn’t know a large crocodile hid in the mud.

When did the big crocodile crawl in?

He remembered passing through here just a few days ago.

Could it be they’ve really been cursed by the Demon today?

Thinking this made him more afraid, repeatedly drawing crosses on his forehead and chest, mumbling prayers as if seeking protection from the deity he believes in.

Gu Qiaoqiao coldly curled her lips; with only this one left, it’s easier to handle. Under the Heaven and Earth’s Foul Qi, someone as sinful as him couldn’t possibly escape.

If she doesn’t take him, heaven certainly will.

And hidden by the entrance, Liang Yan almost held her breath, also hearing those bizarre screams but remained unmoved, patiently waiting.

Someone like her, trained meticulously, is never short of patience; this could be a trap, exposing whoever steps out first, wasting all her efforts and her colleagues’ lives.

That’s something she cannot allow, so she quietly stays within the cave.

Seeing her like this, Gu Qiaoqiao was relieved.

If possible, she’d really like to say a few words to her, telling Sister Yan to hold on a little longer as Fong Lei leads the rescue team. But the distance makes communication impossible, neither sending a note for it would expose too much, compromising her future.

Thinking this, Gu Qiaoqiao dismissed those thoughts.

There’s only this one person left, and in another part of the dense forest, there are two teams but they’re far away, a hundred miles out that would take hours to reach.

During those hours before they arrive, Fong Lei will make it here.

Perhaps there’s guidance from beyond; his involvement changed the destined course, leading Fong Lei’s route directly toward here, shortening the journey by an hour.

So, in about half an hour, he’ll be arriving here.

Half an hour later, even if unable to handle this remaining adversary, Fong Lei will resolve them.

But at this moment, the lone remaining person pulled something from his pocket; his hands visibly trembling, lips shaking. These people, honestly, tainted with countless lives and blood on their hands are like Demons.

They never truly knew fear, but now this person was genuinely afraid, standing motionless, clearly waiting for rescue.

Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t let him send out a rescue signal; their base housed not only thousands of adversaries but helicopters as well.

If helicopters arrived here, it would be dangerous, especially in such dense forests, putting Fong Lei’s team at risk without backup.

Let alone Liang Yan hiding in the cave.

So, he mustn’t send out a rescue signal.

Gu Qiaoqiao acted swiftly and decisively; those thoughts disappeared in an instant. As he pressed the button, Gu Qiaoqiao abruptly reached out; her fingers laced with Spiritual Energy, almost transparent, and snatched the pager from his grasp.

Afterward, Gu Qiaoqiao withdrew her hand, holding the black metallic pager.

In these dense forests, signals were weak. Despite the availability of cell phones, such high-signal transmitters were still used by these people.

This sole enemy within the dense forest felt his heart uncontrollably pounding, sweat rolling off his forehead.

A Demon, it had to be a Demon!

If not a Demon, how could a hand appear out of thin air, its fingers transparent? While those fingers looked beautiful, to him they appeared demonic.

Imagine if instead of snatching his pager, this Demon squeezed his neck—he’d be dead already!

Thus, after emitting strange gurgling sounds, the adversary, touched his neck fearfully and fled madly into the depths of the dense forest.

His direction was entirely opposite to the cave, which meant Liang Yan was fundamentally safe.

Even if this adversary met Fong Lei, he surely wouldn’t survive; unfortunately, he ran too fast. Had he slowed a bit, Gu Qiaoqiao could’ve grabbed his weapon.

Watching his crazed escape direction, Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head with regret, knowing it toward the forest depths, beyond her reach.

Earlier, the terrain was more open, but unexpectedly, in a blink, he frantically dashed out of the forest.

Heart racing, Gu Qiaoqiao wondered if he’d discovered Liang Yan?

How else could he have fled back from the forest?

Wasn’t he trying to escape?

Unflinchingly, Gu Qiaoqiao watched the fleeing adversary, tall at over six feet, a face covered in a dense beard, exuding ruthlessness—not a man of mercy.

So why the panic-stricken expression?

Then she saw behind him a mass, like a sky of descending clouds.

It was a swarm resembling wasps, albeit black in color, furiously pursuing him. Some approaching his face, viciously attacked, visibly forming a large red pustule, swelling instantly.

These insects were incredibly venomous.

In mere moments, this person’s face became unrecognizable, even his eyes stung shut.

A state like this, even if he stumbled into the cave, he wouldn’t be a threat to Liang Yan.

For he seemed already defenseless.

Weapons in hand, frantically firing all around, yet those thousands of wasp-like venomous insects couldn’t be cleared entirely.

Even if he hit half, the remaining few thousand were enough to claim his life!

Thus in his blind panic, instead of heading toward Liang Yan’s cave direction, he stumbled into a mud pit...
