Chapter 50: Friend
Su Yu was amazed, could it be that this was a sign that he was about to promote again?
The Savage Bull Demon had been killed by the ‘Earth Spikes Assault’ and the group was still stunned when Su Yu walked forward and crouched before the corpse. He then pressed the solitary arm that was on its back and found that it was rather feeble, nodding his head he immediately understood. The two arms that were grown by the side of the monster’s back were not for attacking enemies but specifically for utilising the ‘Beheading Cyclone’.
Although this arm seemed quite frightening at a glance, it did not contain much strength and although its speed was fast enough to swiftly grab his and Qin Jia Gui’s heads, it did not have the explosive power to crush their heads.
“It seems that utilising that ‘Beheading Cyclone’ requires speed and nimble skill, not too much strength is required. As a result, these two arms are very fast and deft but lack in strength. It’s fortunate that it turned out this way, otherwise, both me and Qin Jia Gui would have died to it.” Su Yu mumbled.
If the Savage Bull Demon really had such speed in its arms and also a frightening destructive strength, it would be able to kill their group in seconds and certainly not only be a tier two beast soldier.
Li Dong stood by Wei Zhang Ming’s corpse and an expression of grief could be seen on his face.
Within their group, Su Yu and Zhang Zhong Mou’s relations were the most iron clad and Li Dong and Wei Zhang Ming could be considered to have good relations. Now that Wei Zhang Ming had died, he felt a feeling of loneliness, like the fox who grieves when the rabbit dies*.
[Idiom: To have sympathy with a like-minded person in distress]
Wei Zhang Ming did not speak much normally and was like Lin Shi in this respect however, he was far from Lin Shi who was so daring and within the group he seemed ordinary. It was to the point where Su Yu and the others almost did not recall when they last spoke with him and seeing his corpse, there was a puzzled expression on Zhang Zhong Mou’s face. He had actually forgotten Wei Zhang Ming’s name but it certainly was not a good time to ask about it.
After a moment of silence, Li Dong lifted his metal spade and began to dig at the area where Zhuang Xiao Hua had been buried. It was clear that he also planned to bury Wei Zhang Ming here.
Qin Jia Gui noticed this and immediately picked up a metal spade as he began to help out.
As he dug, Qin Jia Gui recalled the scene of him exchanging blows with the Savage Bull Demon but he did not understand why he became so panicky after being grabbed by the monster, losing his wits and if he had only calmed down and used the ‘Demolishing Iron Fist’, he could have easily shattered that Savage Bull Demon’s arm but he questioned himself constantly as to why he had not done it.
Qin Jia Gui thought to himself: “For….. for Su Yu, it had seemed so simple. Was this because he had risen to tier two dark iron warrior? Or could it be that he was weaker than Su Yu? No, thats impossible!”
Qin Jia Gui grit his teeth as he promised deep down, if he met with such a dangerous situation in the future, he would not panic and would calmly assess the situation, looking for gaps within impossible situations and turn defeat into victory.
Once Wei Zhang Ming had been buried, Li Dong carried Wei Zhang Ming’s backpack and poured all the contents within out. Thereafter he picked up two pieces of bread before speaking to the rest: “Everyone take a bit, the items are on the ground.” Having said this, he then threw away the empty backpack to the side.
