I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 445 What’s the use of you if you can’t rush forward?
Qiao Huai was also among the dozen survivors. In the crisis, no one paid attention to who was around him, and naturally no one thought about keeping a distance from him.

Not only that, those survivors who tried their best did not forget to attack the people around them while running hard.

As long as he can find one more stepping stone, he can slow down the movement of the ferocious beast. Or maybe, with just one person missing, it can really be full?

Qiao Huai's physical strength and strength could not be compared with the dozen or so strong men who persisted until the end. But he has been traveling around the world for decades, and he has never relied on these.

He chuckled and scratched his left palm with the sharp nails of his little finger.

The purple-black blood mist was forced out by internal force and sprayed directly towards the people around him.

The strong man who had swung the knife at him earlier froze slightly as soon as he inhaled the blood mist, and stared blankly at a few drops of black blood dripping from his face.

There was black blood overflowing from the eyes, nostrils, ears, and mouth.

He saw what he looked like at this moment from the eyes of the people around him.

Or, in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome, because except for Qiao Huai, the people who fled here with him first are about the same number as him, with their faces black and purple and swollen, and their orifices bleeding.

The strong man's brain gradually stopped, and only the simplest and primitive thoughts remained in his heart. He stared closely at Qiao Huai's body that was escaping quickly, and using his last bit of strength, he threw the long knife in his hand.

The huge snake kiss hit him from behind, but he could no longer smell the disgusting stench. His eyes fixed on the front, feeling a little regretful.

Qiao Huai pulled out the long knife inserted in his left shoulder. After all, he was at the end of his strength, and the blade of the long knife could not penetrate more than three inches into his flesh, so it was not a serious injury.

At this moment, he has opened a distance of more than 20 meters from those people, and even the four people from Luo Qianhuai are only less than 30 meters away.

Xingxuan and Ana stood up and stood vigilantly in front of Luo Qianhuai and Jin Yanyu.

When Luo Qianhuai wanted to stop him, it was already too late.

A light of understanding already flashed in Qiao Huai's eyes.

Apart from Luo Qianhuai, he would not put anyone else in his eyes.

After all, her skills and inner strength were so weird that he had never heard of her before and it was the first time he had seen her.

But he was restrained at that time, and there was also a reason why he underestimated the enemy.

It's different now. She was closely guarded behind the others, which meant that she was probably seriously injured at this moment.

It could also be the poison I contracted at that time. He had prepared the poison himself, and he knew best that even if this person with a special physique could withstand it for a longer time, he would never get better.

The person who was eagerly protecting her now was the clear evidence.

Qiao Huai showed a hint of a sinister smile, raised his uncoagulated wound at the person not far away, and exerted force on his feet again.

If he gets closer, if he gets closer, he can take care of all the last few people and throw them all to the ferocious beast behind him.

That's right, now that he has reached the gate, as long as he shouts for help, he should be able to hear it from outside. Maybe the door will open and let him out. It's hard to say.

Mr. Kakeichi should really want to recruit disciples, but his requirements are a bit too strict, and he has no intention of annihilating so many people.

With his reputation in the world, it was absolutely impossible for him to act like this. It was a sin for him to have such thoughts before.

This sudden glimmer of hope revitalized his already exhausted body, and his running speed continued to increase. But he doesn't know why, in his eyes, the four Luo Qianhuai are getting further and further away from him.

Realizing this, Qiao Huai was immediately horrified. Only then did he realize the restraint and pulling force coming from his own waist.

That power was cold and oppressive, and could not be denied at all.

Qiao Huai lowered his head suddenly and saw an extremely thick red rope wrapped around his waist.

"This is..." He suddenly remembered a possibility and his eyes widened in horror.

The next second, his body was lifted high and hit the top wall of the tunnel. Then he was quickly pulled to the back of the tunnel and fell into the huge snake mouth that filled the entire cave wall.

Seeing a dozen people being swallowed alive like this, it is impossible for any person not to be afraid.

But behind Luo Qianhuai and the others, there was no way out and they could only wait in despair.

"System, if you don't do anything, you will have to change the host and start over again after the upgrade is completed!" Luo Qianhuai rushed to the doctor, calling urgently in his mind.

After her repeated urging, the system finally gave some decent feedback.

In the upper left corner of Luo Qianhuai's field of vision, a line of small red characters appeared:

"System upgrade countdown: 2 hours, 18 minutes and 6 seconds."

"System, can you stop for a moment and save the lives of the four of us first? The worst case scenario is that I promise you that I will never complain about you behind your back again, and we will live in harmony with you from now on."

"System, I have thought clearly. I can permanently give up my right to appeal and unconditionally accept all your assessments of the results of the task execution, regardless of whether they are reasonable or unfair."

"Okay, System, I admit that I did have prejudice against you in the past. I am willing to apologize, and from now on I will change my mind and start a new life. I will follow the example of you, an excellent System from a high-dimensional plane, and strive to improve my own quality so that I can be worthy of excellence." of you"

"System upgrade countdown: 2 hours, 17 minutes and 10 seconds."

The huge snake head was less than twenty meters away from Luo Qianhuai and others. A pair of eyes that were twice as big as the water tank were staring coldly at the four people huddled on the ground.

A thick and depressing atmosphere enveloped the last four survivors.

There is still no other response from the system.

"Love whoever you want, system!" Luo Qianhuai said angrily: "You can't be relied on at critical moments, and no matter how strong your words are, it's useless! I finally understand that you are just a person who comes to show off your presence here after being eliminated from a high-level plane. A strong man! If you reach the pinnacle of life, you must be tricked to death. I don’t know how many hosts you have tricked to death! I sincerely hope that you will die with me. Kiss, don’t ever harm other people again!”

The bright red tongue poked out again, spun nimbly in the air, swung straight over, and was about to land on Xingxuan.

She closed her eyes tremblingly and opened her arms with all her strength, firmly protecting Luo Qianhuai behind her.

A roar sounded beside her. Luo Qianhuai could clearly see that it was Ana who rushed forward with a heavy sword in both hands and slashed directly at the thick snake letter.

"Qiang!" A loud sound shook Ana's hands and her heart.

The despair in Luo Qianhuai's heart also increased to a higher level.

Who would have thought that this beast's skin was not only as hard as a steel plate, but also its muzzle was as hard as gold and stone, and could withstand a sword attack?
The giant python's eyes showed a cold and sarcastic look, and the long letter flew flexibly, and in an instant it wrapped up A'na, who dared to resist.
