Chapter 206: The Chase
Translator:Editor:
Thunder and lightning filled the sky, resembling silver snakes dancing with glaring white light. Deafening loud noises travelled as far as towards the hills across the horizon. All creatures, no matter how powerful they were, seemed to be as insignificant as a tiny speck in a catastrophe as such.
The giant lizard was restless; it was spinning on the ground and roaring from time to time. Suddenly, a lightning struck the nearby forest, causing an earth-shattering thud and a white beam of light that glared into everyone’s eyes. Looking at this horrific phenomenon, the giant lizards took a few steps back. The scales on its tail stood up, and it let out a few angry roars before running towards the forest helter-skelter. Its eyes were bloodshot; it had completely lost its mind from all the fear.
Luo Yuan saw what happened and shouted, “Go in quickly, I’ll go after it”. Due to the effect of the anesthesia, the giant lizard was still weak and was not at the top of its game. As such, running into the forest in such a condition was a bad idea. The team could not afford to lose it as it was their main weapon. Furthermore, without the giant lizard as their mode of transport, it was impossible to leave this forest in a short period of time.
So by hook or by crook, he had to get hold of the giant lizard. He put the kids down and went after the giant lizard with his sword.
“Luo Yuan, no! Don’t go, please come back!” Huang Jiahui shouted repetitively.
“Please be quick!” shouted Zhao Yali and Wang Shishi with all their might. They were worried sick.
Luo Yuan disregarded their pleas and ran forty to fifty meters into the forest within seconds. Not long after, he disappeared into the forest with the giant lizard.
“Sister Huang, it’s too dangerous here, let’s go in. With Boss Luo’s ability, he should be back really soon,” said Huo Dong, glancing at the terrifying lightning.
“This brother is right, the lightning is getting more and more vicious. We should get going before it strikes us,” hurried Commander Xia.
Huang Jiahui took a deep breath, suppressed her anxiety and nodded obediently. She quickly ran towards the aircraft while carrying Chen Jiayi, while Huo Dong and Commander Xia carried Deng Chao and Zhong Chuqiang respectively.
Everyone arrived in the cave safely; they could finally feel a slight relief. Listening to the thunderstorm outside, they were glad that they managed to dig out this cave or else they would had been stuck outside praying for the lightning to spare their lives.
As time passed, Luo Yuan still had not returned. The atmosphere was tense once again. Not only Huang Jiahui and the ladies were jittery, the rest were getting anxious as well. They naturally did not feel an ounce of fear when Luo Yuan was around, but when he was absent, everyone was shrouded in constant fear. Especially being in a dark cave, it seemed to pose more threats than anyone could imagine.
