Psychedelic Poison (2)

At this moment, the poison had caused Anna to hallucinate and had interfered with her cognition, so she didn’t think about how unreasonable it was for Rothgarr to suddenly leave her here alone, and how this demonic creature appeared so strangely.

Rothgarr wanted to grab Anna and forcibly take her back to the castle, but he didn’t expect that she would not hide, but instead burrow into his arms. He was slightly startled, and already felt the burning pain on his abdomen caused by the light element. In fact, to him, it wasn’t a strong pain; it felt like what a human being would feel being bitten by a mosquito.

What made him a little stunned was actually the feel of her hand on him.

He subconsciously wrapped his arms around Anna’s waist.

Anna felt strong arms circling around her waist, and her expression changed drastically.

This demonic creature was stronger than her, and she was only mortal. With this hug, her bones would all be shattered.

For some reason, Anna suddenly remembered that the weakness of this demonic creature seemed to be its horns. She didn’t have time to think about it. The next second, she jumped a little using its shoulders, and suddenly grabbed the two horns on top of its head.

Rothgarr froze completely.

In front of him were slightly trembling lumps, almost touching his face, but his attention was all on the captured horns.

As far back as he could remember, these horns had never been touched by anyone, so he didn’t know that the feeling of being held by a pair of soft hands was so…indescribable.

It was like the fear and surrender he felt when he faced The Abyss alone; simultaneously, it was like having a hearty fight with an evenly matched opponent, like the unbearable itch in his heart he had trying to get rid of the curse of The Abyss.

All this turned into a trembling feeling that made his heart tingle.

He staggered and took a step back, his usually strong, sturdy legs somehow softened, and he fell to the ground together with Anna.

If an outsider saw this scene, they would definitely exclaim impropriety, cover their eyes with their hands and peek through the gaps in their fingers.

Rothgarr was sitting on the ground, with one hand on the ground and the other around Anna’s waist, while Anna was practically sitting on top of him. Her skirt was ripped and didn’t completely cover her body. She was hunched over and clutching his horns with both hands.

Anna was overjoyed when she saw that the demonic creature had been pushed down by her. This is indeed the weakness of demonic creatures!

But the problem is, this horn was too big, and it didn’t look like it could be broken by her, otherwise she thought it would definitely severely injure the demonic creature.

Looking down at this demonic creature who seemed to be stunned, she knew that this battle was almost over, and now she just wanted to escape.

She couldn’t even break the opponent’s defense. Nevermind fighting; the most important thing was to take the opportunity to escape!

Anna easily broke free from the hands of the demonic creature that were wrapped around her waist. She used the Wind Gathering Technique to quickly float away, and when she looked back, she saw that it was still sitting there. She clenched her teeth and fled into the forest.

On the flat land, she would definitely not be able to run away from the demonic creature when it came to its senses, so she could only try her luck by hiding in the woods, hoping that it would not be too persistent.

When Rothgarr recovered from that hard to describe tremor in his heart, his arms were empty and Anna was gone.

He jumped up in shame-turned-anger, looked around, and headed into the woods with a sullen face.

For Anna, everything around her was so unfamiliar and terrifying.

The entire forest was dark, like a scorched and ruined forest, but the sound of rustling creatures crawling through the forest made her scan her surroundings apprehensively.

Suddenly, she saw a tall demonic creature on the right, and subconsciously threw a thunderbolt. The thunderbolt fell on the top of the demonic creature’s head, covering its whole body. It twitched and fell down, dead.

Anna breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that not every large demonic creature was as powerful as the horned one just now.

She continued to move forward quickly, for fear that the horned demonic creature would catch up after coming to its senses. Then, she would be doomed.

On the ground where a small hole was split by the thunder and lightning, a crustacean insect slightly larger than an ordinary shelled-insect had its abdomen turned to the sky. Its legs jolted one or two times before becoming immobile.

The deeper Anna went, the bigger the demonic creatures she saw. Fortunately, those demonic creatures were not strong, and she made her way unimpeded until she saw a ginormous spider.

The spider was nearly two meters tall. She was startled, but before she could step back, the spider’s silk entangled her.

Rothgarr tracked Anna very smoothly because every few steps away, there would be electrocuted small beetles, small flies, and small caterpillars.

After passing over a bush that was slightly denser and taller, he saw the demonic creature that guarded the fruit.

When he saw that the one who was tied up by the vines of the demonic creature and hung from the tree with a net like food was Anna, his heart skipped a beat. With the speed of light, he rushed over, kicking the spider-shaped demonic creatures, knocking it over.
