Chapter 55: Escape from the Fantasy World: Lin Xiao and Mo Yu's Game of Life and Death
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu struggled forward in the dark and gloomy forest that seemed to swallow everything. The surrounding trees were towering into the sky, with branches intertwined, like giant black pythons winding in the air. The moonlight shone through the gaps between the dense leaves, forming strange, ghostly spots of light.
Lin Xiao's eyes were filled with unconcealable tension and fear. She followed Mo Yu closely, her voice trembling like a leaf in the wind: "Mo Yu, this place is simply hell on earth! I feel like there are countless pairs of eyes staring at us in the dark with every step I take. It's scary!" As she spoke, she unconsciously increased the strength of her grip on the corner of Mo Yu's clothes, and her knuckles turned white from the force.
Mo Yu looked back at her, his eyes revealing firmness and tenderness, trying to give her a little comfort: "Xiao'er, don't be afraid, as long as I am here, I will not let you get hurt." Although his voice was steady, beads of sweat seeped out of his forehead.
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind whistled past, and the leaves rustled. The sound was like countless demons whispering in one's ear, making one's hair stand on end. Lin Xiao couldn't help but shudder, and his teeth began to tremble uncontrollably: "This wind is too evil! I have goose bumps all over my body, and I feel like my soul is frozen!"
At this moment, a low and threatening roar came from the front, and the sound echoed in the silent forest like rolling thunder. Lin Xiao's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and his voice changed, as if an invisible big hand was strangling his throat: "Mo Yu, what...what is this sound? It can't be...it can't be that kind of super scary monster?"
Mo Yu made a gesture to keep quiet, frowned, and carefully moved towards the direction of the sound. Although Lin Xiao's legs were weak with fear, he still gritted his teeth and followed.
As they approached, they saw a huge black wolf appear in front of them. The black wolf's body was as big as a hill, and its fur was shiny black, gleaming with a strange luster under the moonlight. Its eyes flashed with a faint green light, like two burning will-o'-the-wisp fires, and its fangs were as sharp as knives, flashing with a cold light.
Lin Xiao was so scared that she almost screamed, and her heart seemed to jump out of her throat. Mo Yu was quick to cover her mouth and whispered in her ear, "Don't make a sound, baby, or we will all become food for this beast."
The black wolf seemed to be aware of their presence and slowly walked towards them. Every step was accompanied by a huge sense of oppression, and the ground was shaking slightly.
Mo Yu clenched the sword in his hand, staring at the black wolf, his body tense, ready to fight at any time. His breathing became rapid, and his heartbeat was clearly audible in the silent forest.
Lin Xiao's heartbeat accelerated rapidly, as if a crazy drum was beating in her chest. She prayed silently in her heart: "God, please bless us to survive this disaster! If I can get out alive, I will burn incense and kowtow to you every day!"
Just as the black wolf was about to pounce, Mo Yu suddenly flashed and rushed towards the black wolf like a flash of lightning. The sword in his hand stabbed the black wolf with a cold light. The black wolf dodged swiftly and opened its bloody mouth to bite Mo Yu.
Mo Yu quickly drew back his sword to block, and started a thrilling and fierce fight with the black wolf. The surrounding trees were shaken by their strength, and the leaves fell one after another, as if a green rain was falling.
Lin Xiao watched anxiously from the side, her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into the flesh, but she didn't feel any pain. Her eyes followed Mo Yu's figure closely, her eyes full of worry and fear.
Mo Yu and Heilang fought hard and it was hard to tell who would win. Heilang's attacks were fierce and swift, while Mo Yu relied on his agility and superb swordsmanship to resolve crises time and time again.
Suddenly, the black wolf took advantage of Mo Yu's inattention and pounced, biting Mo Yu's shoulder fiercely. Mo Yu groaned, and blood instantly stained his clothes red.
When Lin Xiao saw this scene, her eyes instantly turned red, tears welled up in her eyes. She rushed forward desperately and shouted, "Asshole, don't hurt Mo Yu!" Her voice was full of anger and despair.
The black wolf was angered by Lin Xiao's actions and pounced on her.
At this critical moment, Mo Yu endured the pain, burst out with amazing strength, and stabbed the black wolf's vital point with his sword. The black wolf screamed, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, raising a cloud of dust.
Lin Xiao quickly ran to Mo Yu, tears streaming down her face, her voice choked with sobs: "Mo Yu, how are you? Don't scare me! If anything happens to you, I won't want to live anymore!"
Mo Yu smiled weakly, his face was as pale as paper, his voice was weak but firm: "Xiao'er, I'm fine, don't cry, this injury is nothing."
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, more roars were heard from all around them. The sounds came one after another, as if countless beasts were approaching them.
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu looked at each other, their eyes filled with despair and helplessness.
Lin Xiao said in a trembling voice: "This...what should we do? Are we really going to die here today?"
Mo Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiao'er, even if I die, I will protect you!"
They stood back to back, looking around vigilantly.
Suddenly, a group of dark shadows rushed out from the woods. They turned out to be a group of equally ferocious wild beasts.
Lin Xiao closed his eyes in despair, muttering to himself: "It's over, it's really over now..."
Mo Yu tightly gripped the sword in his hand, ready to make a final desperate fight.
Can they successfully break out of this desperate situation? What kind of thrilling life-and-death test is waiting for them?
