Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Halfway through the swim, Josico suddenly saw red blood floating on the water.

"Kaos... something happened... something happened! Something happened underwater!!"

"Keep swimming forward, don't look around." Kaos continued swimming in front.

Qiao Xike wanted to help, but she was in the water now and she didn't know how to help, so she could only keep swimming forward.

Qiaoxico followed Kaos and swam to the other side. Qiaoxico immediately picked up his submachine gun and looked at the water nervously.

"Don't shoot randomly, it will be bad if you hurt one of your own people." Kaos said calmly.

At this moment, Nami was the first to stand in the shallow water, but she was dragging something in her hand.

Crocodile! It was an alligator more than three meters long.

The crocodile was not dead, but its upper and lower jaws were firmly grasped by Nami, and she was dragged to the shore by Nami.

This picture completely subverted Ciosico's world view.

Is this fake?

This must have been prepared in advance.

Nami actually caught an alligator alive in the water.

At this moment, another thing surfaced.

But it was a crocodile with its belly turned over, but the belly of this crocodile was completely broken open.

Then another crocodile came up with its belly turned over, and another one... and another one.

Then the members of Team Lightning followed one by one ashore.

No one was hurt, and everyone was carrying a saber.

"Nami, what are you doing to catch someone alive?"

"I want to eat crocodile tonight. If the crocodile meat is not processed in time, it will spoil within three hours." Nami said.

Qiao Xico went completely crazy. In order to eat crocodile meat tonight, he went into the water to capture a crocodile alive?

Also, did these people actually kill alligators underwater?

There were four or five crocodiles floating up, so there might be more crocodiles that were washed away by the current before they even surfaced.

Except for Kaos, the five of them probably killed no less than twenty crocodiles, right?

What's going on with these guys?

"Let it go, let it go, it's only noon, do you plan to carry this 200 kilogram crocodile all the way?" Kaos shouted.

"I'll resist if I want. Anyway, I don't have to be on duty tonight." Nami said with a somewhat contradictory tone.

Qiao Xike felt that even carrying this 200-kilogram crocodile would be a burden. It would take at least three people to carry it, right?

But the fact is not what she thinks.

Nami found a rope, tied the crocodile's mouth, then grabbed the crocodile and put it directly on her shoulder.

"If you can, don't eat my crocodile meat." Nami said angrily.

"Forget it, let me do it." Team Lightning team Themis said. He is the strongest one in the team, more than twice as strong as Nami.

Who are these?

A bunch of monsters.

Qiao Xike's eyes changed when he looked at them.

"Let's go, keep moving forward." Kaos did not hesitate whether to let the crocodile go.

Josico watched Themis carrying a two-hundred-kilogram crocodile, and he didn't feel tired at all.

It even felt like he was walking easier than me.

Still talking and laughing with his teammates.

It wasn't until evening that everyone found an open space to rest again.

Qiao Xike deeply felt that these people were truly monster-like existences.

It's not just Nami, it's everyone.

"Kaos, I will also be on duty tonight." Qiao Xike said proactively.

"Okay, you and Temis will be responsible for the first half of the night, and Rodman will be responsible for the second half of the night."

Qiaoxico once again felt the discrimination of Kaos. While others were on duty alone, she was accompanied by Themis.

No, to be precise, Themis picked her up.

The big man Themis didn't care: "Qiao Xike, if you are tired at night, you can go to bed first."

Temis's mind is a bit straight. If it were someone else, he would never say this to Qiao Xico.

Qiao Xike decided on the spot that he must complete his vigil duty tonight.

After nightfall, everyone began to rest.

Themis and Josico were sitting in front of the fire.

"Temis, are everyone in your Lightning Team so powerful?"

"The main reason is that our boss's boss is great."

"Is this the boss Kaos said?"

"Well, the boss always says that he is a lion, so his subordinates cannot be sheep." Themis said.

"Is your boss currently performing tasks elsewhere?"

"No, he doesn't go out much recently. His girlfriend is about to give birth." Themis suddenly frowned and stood up.

Qiao Xike's face changed slightly, and she saw green light dots in the woods ahead.

Wolf! Wolves!

Ciocico immediately picked up his gun and planned to wake up the others.

"Don't be nervous, you stay here, if there is a wolf running over, you shoot again, and don't leave the camp." Taimis said.

"But……"

Just when Qiosico was about to refute Themis's words, he saw Themis had strode forward and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

Then, a wolf howled in the darkness.

Qiaoxico was very nervous and kept staring into the darkness. She couldn't see anything except the sound.

I don't know what's going on over there.

"Themis is so powerful, he must be fine." Qiaoxico comforted himself.

But in such an environment, encountering wolves is the most dangerous.

Unlike wolves in North America, most of North America is a relatively open area, and the population coverage is relatively wide, so wolves cannot grow.

But forest wolves are different. For example, the wolves in the Amazon rainforest are very large.

It is even possible to encounter a large pack of fifty or sixty wolves.

What should I do? Should I wake up Kaos and the others?

Suddenly, a wolf rushed towards the camp.

Josico shot immediately.

Da da da--

The wolf ran a few meters and fell in front of Qiao Xico.

At this moment, a man came out of the tent.

Kaos walked out: "What happened?"

"Wolves! Wolves... Themis has passed... I'm afraid..."

"Oh, wolves." Kaos found a glass of water and rinsed his mouth: "Since you're up, let's have a midnight snack."

"Kaos, aren't you going to help Themis?"

"Why help? Isn't he back?"

Qiaoxico turned around and saw that Temis was back, carrying a gray wolf more than two meters long in his hand.

At this time, Rodman also came out of the tent.

"It's great. We have a late-night snack when we wake up." Rodman also looked calm.

It was as if Themis had just taken the initiative to attack the wolves, which was completely insignificant.

"Temis, you don't have any hands, do you?" Qiao Xico asked, looking at Temis who was covered in blood.

"Oh no, this is the blood of wolves." Themis said: "Eat some roasted wolf meat, and then go and rest."

"Temis, did you kill all the wolves just now?" Rodman asked.

"No, more than a dozen of them ran away." Themis said: "But with such a strong smell of blood, I guess you will be busy in the second half of the night."
