Chapter 500 - 321: Landing Ashore (Part 4)
Its body was slender, over half a meter long, covered with dense, sharp spikes, and its head’s Poison Fang glittered coldly, emanating a nauseating scent.
Like a black lightning bolt, the poisonous creature swiftly lunged towards someone in the crowd.
Before the person could react, the creature bit into their neck!
The person let out a miserable scream, desperately trying to grab the creature and fling it off!
But it was all in vain—
Only a few seconds passed!
Their body collapsed to the ground, frothing at the mouth, lifeless.
...
"Ah!"
The crowd erupted in a terrifying scream, everyone frantically fleeing in chaos.
Everyone ran heedlessly towards the rocky beach.
They hid behind rocks of all sizes, their eyes filled with fear, closely watching the creature, dreading its next attack.
The poisonous creature seemed quite satisfied with its work.
It raised its head high, slowly crawling along the beach as though declaring its dominion over this territory.
At this moment on the rocky beach, everyone huddled together, not daring to make a sound.
...
Just then!
Dean, the man in the black robe, hurled a fireball from afar, killing the poisonous creature!
Millian stepped forward, addressing the panicked crowd:
"The monsters on this island have all been corrupted by the power of the Demon, which is why they’ve become so strong and vicious. Everyone must be careful."
The crowd, hearing Millian’s words, became even more fearful.
Instinctively, their gaze turned to Tono Taro—
During the previous battle with the Giant Squid, Tono Taro had shown the most formidable strength!
Everyone felt he was the most likely person to lead them out of danger!
So, the crowd began to gather around Tono Taro, as if he were a beacon in the darkness.
At this moment!
A young foreign girl willingly clung to Tono Taro, her voice soft and alluring:
"Please! Let me follow you, I don’t want to die here..."
However!
Before she could finish her words—
Tono Taro’s gaze turned icy as frost!
Without hesitation, he drew the Samurai Sword from his waist!
A cold gleam flashed. The girl hadn’t even had time to react before she was cut down to the ground, blood instantly staining the sand.
Tono Taro coldly scanned the crowd, his tone devoid of any emotion:
"Stay away from me!"
The crowd was stunned by this sudden scene!
They stared wide-eyed at Tono Taro, faces filled with fear and shock.
No one had expected Tono Taro to be so ruthless, mercilessly killing an unarmed girl!
At this moment!
Tono Taro snorted coldly, sheathed the Samurai Sword, and turned to walk alone into the depths of the island!
...
The crowd watched his departing back, momentarily unable to make a sound.
Millian stood aside, quietly observing everything.
Only a hint of vindictiveness flashed in her gaze, the corner of her mouth slightly lifting in an almost imperceptible smile.
...
At this moment!
"Damn Neon People!"
The female Swordsman Zou Zhiruo from the Eastern Country had her eyebrows raised, her eyes burning with rage as she spoke out bluntly:
"This island is fraught with danger, no one knows what might be encountered in the next moment; it’s best not to act separately, or you’ll face a dead end!"
Her voice was crisp and determined, carrying an indisputable authority.
The crowd, hearing Zou Zhiruo’s words, felt a bit more at ease despite the panic caused by Tono Taro’s departure.
They looked at each other, nodding in agreement, and began to gather towards Zou Zhiruo’s position.
After all, on this perilous island, staying united clearly offered more security.
Millian, observing this, showed a perfectly timed smile and also said:
"I agree with Miss Zou’s suggestion. We should stay together, so we can look out for each other."
Meanwhile, she turned her gaze to Natalia and Xina, warmly inviting:
"You two lovely ladies, why not join us?"
Natalia slightly furrowed her brows, a hint of reluctance in her eyes—
She didn’t quite like Millian’s overly enthusiastic and unpredictable demeanor.
But before she could refuse, Lin Lang suddenly took action.
...
Upon seeing Zou Zhiruo, Lin Lang was suddenly taken aback!
Then!
He willingly approached Zou Zhiruo.
Standing before Zou Zhiruo, he politely said:
"Hello."
His voice was gentle and steady, with a faint smile on his face.
...
Seeing this scene, Xina couldn’t help feeling a little upset!
She stomped her foot, muttering softly:
"Hmph! Lin Lang can’t resist pretty women again!"
A hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes, crossing her arms with a puffed-up look, watching Lin Lang and Zou Zhiruo.
