Chapter 45 (2/2)

He threw a glance to the floor beside him with the corner of his eyes. Yin continued to sit on the floor with her eyes closed. The white bed sheet wrapped around her body was already torn apart and stained with some blood and dust due to the previous attack. Her entire injured leg was exposed on the outside; naked and bleeding. She sat while propping herself upright with a single hand. She appeared a little weak and fragile.

Just when the tiger’s second attack was about to arrive, just when one of them was absolutely going to die in the tiger’s jaw, Yin suddenly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were huge and her gaze was bright.

She stared at the tiger with deadly quiescence. The gaze carrying with it the breath of death shot straight into the tiger’s eyes as if it had a solid form of its own!

Yue Qiang could hardly believe it when he stared at the tiger and saw that both its eyes were tightly shut and bleeding just because of Yin’s momentary gaze.

The tiger had gone blind!

Yue Qiang had absolutely no idea what kind of attack this was, and in this realistic game world, he could not imagine what kind of attack it was either. Of course, he didn’t have the time to think about these things either. He knew that the tiger would definitely rampage at all directions after its eyes were blinded by Yin.

Without any hesitation, he activated his Run skill once more and retreated while carrying Yin again, and again.

Sure enough, after the tiger went blind, it immediately went berserk. A ferocious aura exploded from its body as the tiger began attacking its surroundings indiscriminately in a frenzy. The few nearby corpses on the ground were instantly grinded into minced meat.

Yue Qiang retreated seven to eight steps rapidly towards the back, before moving sideways for a distance and just avoiding the wave of attack by a hair’s breadth. The tiger’s rampage at its original spot did buy the duo some time and s.p.a.ce in safety, however.

“I have no strength left in me any longer.” Yin sat weakly on the floor with closed eyes. She spoke quickly with a soft voice, “The tiger will rampage for a little while longer. You can take this opportunity to leave quickly through the cave entrance.”

Yue Qiang went blank for a short while before typing swiftly, “What about you then?”

With her eyes closed, Yin tilted her head slightly to the side and thought for a moment before speaking softly, “My memories seemed to be broken, and I cannot remember anything that happened before this. I can only vaguely remember that I seemed to be seeking death for a long time, but was not granted that wish. This is great, though. My chance to die has arrived.”

Yue Qiang went blank again, not really understanding what Yin was talking about. The girl did not explain further, and instead began to a.n.a.lyse the current situation with a soft voice. It was the exact same tone as her calm deduction from before, “Tigers are extremely smart animals. It might be blind now, but its hearing and sense of smell is still around. If you hesitate any longer, you will not be able to walk away. You can press close against the cave walls and creep out quietly. I can even help you by creating some noise here.”

Yin’s words and tone was gentle and kind. They completely lacked the ma.s.sive fear that a person should have when they were about to die. It sounded just like a daily greeting like ‘hey, the weather’s great have you eaten’. But the more she acted like this, the more Yue Qiang felt that something wasn’t right.

Just what kind of person could put life and death behind them?

He hesitated for a short while whether to take the girl with him. After all, it would slow him to take a person with him, and it might generate noise that would expose their concealment. However, this little bit of time he took to hesitate had caused him to lose the chance to escape alone.

The tiger at the other side had already recovered from its manic state. Relying on its amazing animalistic instinct, it slowly but accurately walked towards the direction where they were hiding.

Yue Qiang no longer had anywhere to escape!
