C187 The Terrible (2/2)
But by the time I tried to stop it, it was too late.
The backpack had already been thrown up by the bearded man, along with the large group of black bugs.
”We've been tricked, all of this is just an illusion, that black snake is the culprit.”
I was originally only two to three meters away from the bearded man. Furthermore, with how strong this fellow was, the backpack was already far away. I believed that it would fall to the ground in a few seconds.
That was the result of the spider's actions.
I wasn't in the mood to pay attention to the gazes the others would use on me. Instead, I tried my best to run towards the location of the backpack.
At that moment, I noticed that everything around me seemed to have slowed down a lot. I knew that this was probably an illusion caused by my speed.
In short, just as the black bag was about to fall to the ground, I caught up.
The closer I got to the backpack, the more I felt the heat in my chest.
Indeed, just as the backpack was about to land in my hands, I saw the black bugs that were originally covering the bag disappear without a trace. Instead, there was a ball of evil energy leaking out continuously.
No mistake, it was that thing that was playing tricks on him.
Finally, my hand caught the backpack, even though I fell heavily to the ground.
It was a pity that it wasn't there yet. Just when I was about to heave a sigh of relief, the backpack that was tightly wrapped up suddenly popped out, revealing a metallic light.
The metal box had already opened a crack, and under the pull of some kind of force, it actually bounced and fell onto the floor.
I threw myself forward again, but the metal box was about to fall against a nearby rock.
I knew that the black snake was about to break free, and I was about to be the first victim.
At this moment, life and death had already been thrown to the side. Even if I wanted to dodge, it would be too late.
In vain, I reached out to grab the metal box, but it was still at least half a meter away from me.
However, just as everything was about to turn to the worst, a white light suddenly shot out from my head and cut into the bottom of the metal box with a clang.
That metal box was like a miracle. After being bounced up by the power, it flew up another foot or so. At the same time, the light was also inserted into the cracks in the nearby rocks.
I didn't even see what it was, just took advantage of this rare opportunity to leap forward again, feeling as if I had suddenly become a four-legged animal.
Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that he had become a wild wolf.
When I jumped out, I quickly reached out my hand and caught the metal box just as it was about to fall again.
I saw that a crack had appeared on that metal box. A pair of small eyes that flickered with a ghostly light were peering at me like rice grains.
