Chapter 8: The Strength of Ma Zi Ye
Within the forest, tall trees reached to the sky, their branches and leaves were thick as they shrouded the sunlight, causing the entire area to seem very dark.
The sky was covered densely with clouds, a depressing atmosphere and an unspeakable oppressiveness overcame them. In the gaps of the trunks of each and every large tree were even taller weeds and shrubs of all sorts that were at least the height of humans.
Su Yu, Zhang Zhong Mou, Qin Jia Gui, Ning Yan, Ma Zi Ye and the other people held their weapons as they forced their way through the thick vegetation, painstakingly moving into the depths of the forest. They had only gone forward a few hundred metres when sounds of “shuffling” could be heard in their surroundings.
Su Yu and the group immediately halted their steps as from the surrounding weeds that were as tall as humans, appeared a group of green monsters that surrounded them in no time.
“Aaahh!” Someone lost their composure as they screamed, the thirty people felt their hearts palpitate. With so many of the green monsters, anyone would be frightened.
From a glance, Su Yu could tell that there were over ten of these green monsters and the monsters did not give them any time to formulate a plan as they let out shrill cries and attacked from all sides.
“There are only fifteen of them, half our numbers. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” Suddenly, a girl’s indifferent voice could be heard. Thereafter, Su Yu saw Ma Zi Ye who was from the department of foreign languages rush forward first.
Of the twelve special energy users besides Su Yu, Ma Zi Ye had killed the most green monsters. It was said that her family had opened a martial arts dojo and her martial arts skills were quite considerable.
Su Yu saw her shooting forward like an arrow, her stance was very different from a normal person’s movements.
Without much time to consider, the green monsters were already upon them. Under the dire circumstances, Su Yu could only ignore the burning pain in his shoulder as he wielded his club and swung it towards one of the green monsters.
On the back of his hand, four black scales appeared and the strange energy within his left hand surged. Su Yu’s current strength was now close to four times that of a normal green monster and this club that struck forth immediately slammed into the attacking green monster for well over ten steps back before it fell on its butt to the ground.
Even the green monster which was rather dim witted with its ugly face currently showed an expression of astonishment.
“Aaahhh!”
From another side, two miserable shrieks could be heard and Su Yu could not resist to look over. Two people were planted on the ground, their bodies were being bashed by wooden clubs as flesh and blood flew about, it was unlikely that they would live.
Qin Jia Gui yelled loudly as his hands gripped the wooden club tightly as he swung it and smacked a green monster.
“Bang!”
Both sides flew back as their strengths were similarly matched.
Another tall bloke saw the opportunity and used a club to viciously bash the back of the green monsters head.
The green monster shrieked in pain as it retaliated by doing a backhand sweep as it smashed the club into the fellow.
