Chapter 30

Rumble!

When the mutated creature stomped, the ground trembled!

The ground even cracked when it landed its palm.

At the same time, trees nearby fell under the huge impact.

Then, a massive figure appeared in front of Emerson and Tifa.

Upon seeing the enormous figure, Emerson immediately knew what were they facing with.

Tier 7 mutated creature – Shadow Rhino!

“Hiss!”

Emerson was stunned when he saw the Shadow Rhino in front of him.

He did not expect the Shadow Rhino would appear there.

Shadow Rhino, a mutated creature at the outer region of the dark forest. When Emerson and Tifa had just entered the outer region, they had already discovered the mutated creature.

Due to their powerful strength, the 2 of them only glanced at it from afar and did not dare to attack it.

“It’s that ugly guy again.”

Tifa muttered when he saw the Shadow Rhino for the first time.

When Emerson heard Tifa’s words, he could not help but roll his eyes. He thought to himself, how daring was she?

At such a critical moment, she was actually still talking about whether the Shadow Rhino was ugly or not.

“Let’s go. We can’t stay here.”

Emerson pulled Tifa and retreated.

He knew very well that if they continued to stay where they were, the smell of blood on his body would definitely expose them.

Once they were targeted by the Shadow Rhino, it would be too late for them to escape.

Although Emerson was not afraid of the Shadow Rhino, it was difficult for him to fight against too many mutated creatures. A Shadow Rhino might not be terrifying, but he would not be able to handle so many of them.

Behind the Shadow Rhino were a large number of other mutated creatures.

Although these mutated creatures were not particularly strong, they were still at tier 9 or tier 8. There were also many tier 7 mutated creatures behind the Shadow Rhino.

If he were to face any one of them alone, Emerson was absolutely confident that he could easily kill them. However, if he were to face countless mutated creatures at the same time… He could only choose to save his own life.

That time, Tifa was no longer reckless. She also knew the severity of the situation and allowed Emerson to pull her along.

However, just as they were about to leave…

The Shadow Rhino stared at its surroundings with its huge eyes.

With its sharp sense of smell, it quickly detected the scent that was left behind on Emerson’s body.

It then charged forward in a barbaric manner.

Although the Shadow Rhino was huge and looked a little clumsy, its was not slow at all. In fact, it was speeding toward Emerson and Tifa.

Moreover, every time its hooves stomped on the ground, the ground would shake as if it was going to split open at any moment.

Wherever the Shadow Rhino passed, the trees would collapse under the barbaric assault of the Shadow Rhino.

Upon seeing this, Emerson could clearly see that it was charging toward him. He then said to himself, “As expected, the ugly guy is charging toward us.”

Emerson brought Tifa with him as they ran as fast as possible without turning their head to look back.

However, they were in the outer region of the dark forest.

Even Emerson, who was somewhat familiar with the dark forest, appeared to be in a panic at that moment.

Several times, they had chosen the wrong direction to escape, which had alarmed more mutated creatures.

Fortunately, Emerson was extremely cautious. Every time he changed his route before being discovered, he did not wake those mutated creatures up completely.

However, the Shadow Rhino behind him did not care about those things. It charged forward recklessly and chased after Emerson and Tifa.

…

“No… I can’t… I… I can’t run anymore.”

Tifa could not hold Emerson’s hand anymore as she was struggling to keep up with him.

She slid weakly to the side of a big tree. She was exhausted and tired. Her fair and pretty face was extremely pale at that moment. Even her lips cracked.

“No, it’s not safe here. Those guys behind us are less than 1,000 feet away from us.”

“If we stay here for too long, they’ll catch up to us soon.”

“At that time, you will be eaten by those creatures.”

Emerson saw Tifa lying under the big tree, not caring about the situation at all. Thus, his tone could not help but become a little serious.

He thought that Tifa was throwing a tantrum again.

However, after seeing Tifa’s condition, he understood that he had misunderstood her just now.

Tifa was like a puddle of mud before his eyes. She collapsed on the side of the big tree, and her lips were slightly purple.

Indeed, after running for a long time, even he felt tired, especially when he had to pay close attention to everything around him during the escape.

Under such a tense situation, Emerson was actually more tired than Tifa.

However, Tifa’s condition was clearly worse than Emerson had imagined.

“So be it…. After running for more than an hour, I can’t run anymore. I’m so tired.”

“Just now, I vomited all the food I had. My throat is dry. Even my lips cracked.”

Tifa looked up weakly and glanced at Emerson Cole.

“Stay here. Don’t go anywhere. Wait for me to come back.”

Upon seeing that the mutated creatures behind them were about to catch up.

Emerson knew that they could not delay any longer. Otherwise, neither of them would be able to escape.

The only thing they could do was to think of a way to lure them away.

“Whoosh!”

Emerson’s figure was like an elf in the dark night. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived on a tall tree.

He then jumped a few times consecutively. When he saw the Shadow Rhino and other mutated creatures that were still chasing after them, he stopped.

Emerson threw a fire attack toward the ground.

It blocked the Shadow Rhino and other mutated creatures that wanted to advance.

“Moo!!!”

Upon seeing that its path was blocked, the Shadow Rhino shook its head and roared toward the sky!

The Shadow Rhino quickly discovered Emerson, who was hiding on the big tree.

“Moo!!!”

The Shadow Rhino roared at Emerson again.

It dragged its huge body and slammed into the big tree that Emerson was standing on.

Bang!

A loud sound was heard.

However, the instant the Shadow Rhino hit the tree, Emerson jumped onto another big tree.

Meanwhile, the other mutated creatures behind the Shadow Rhino also discovered Emerson.

They rushed toward him in all directions.

Obviously, they were all attracted by the smell of blood left on Emerson’s body.

Upon seeing all the mutated creatures rushing toward him,.

Emerson glanced at the place where Tifa had stopped and fled in the other direction.

He knew that Tifa would only survive if he lured the mutated creatures away.
