Chapter 199 You are crazy!
?"Huh! Flexing too much will cause you to be struck by lightning," Farmyrth said contemptuously while looking at the Ninth Hero's purple light with disdain.
"Hahaha... I also hope lightning can kill me. But... do you know that even a god cannot kill me?" The ninth hero said.
Although his voice was a bit sad and tired, the tone in which he spoke showed his arrogance and contempt for living beings.
Farmyrth also did not want to continue bantering with him, so she immediately spoke up: "So... Alec and Harris did not violate the law, so they do not need to be punished."
"Alec and Harris also have the highest score compared to the other contestants, and they can advance to the third round."
Farmyrth waved her hand, and a giant water curtain appeared. The water curtain was divided into many areas.
In there, there was an area used to display the list of scores of candidates participating in the second round.
However, what attracted everyone's attention the most was not the top two names on the list.
Of course, those positions were held by Alec and Harris. What they paid more attention to were the last two people, Lathel and Claire, who both had a score of 0.
"Good! Take them out." Farmyrth spoke, and right after that, a middle-aged man dragged Alec and Harris out.
Before being taken away, Alec and Harris also saw Lathel's score, which was zero. This made Alec feel more contempt for Lathel, and it also made him feel more comfortable.
Harris was different. When he saw that Lathel's score was zero, he frowned, and he got lost in thought.
After everyone left, Farmyrth spoke up: "As you can see, the rescue work is underway, your juniors are being rescued."
"However, if anyone dies, it is that person's fate, or maybe... that person is just weak."
Everyone was silent; Farmyrth and the Ninth Hero had both said the same thing, so they could only listen.
Some people felt lucky in their hearts that their juniors survived, while most people's juniors were dead. Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
There were some people who felt angry because the juniors they had spent a lot of resources on training had died under the clutches of the Fire Drake.
Some people breathed a sigh of relief because the juniors who died in this round of the competition were not people they focused too much resources on cultivating.
Everyone was just consumed by their own thoughts.
Suddenly, an image startled everyone; even the Ninth Hero and Farmyrth were surprised at what was being displayed on the water curtain.
The ninth hero, Demon Lord, laughed loudly at this time: "Hahahaha... Humanity really does have geniuses, this time, it seems I was wrong."
"Farmyrth, it seems... you are really lucky."
Farmyrth didn't pay too much attention to what the Ninth Hero said, she just stared at the water curtain in front of her, while licking her lips sensually.
'Amleth, it seems... I have to taste your man.'
...
Lathel was now sitting with Claire around a fire in the woods.
Even though they had been travelling for nearly a day, they still had not reached the meeting point.
However, they could see the tower in the distance. Lathel estimated that it was about 4-6 kilometres from this place to that location.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry, he sat in the forest and enjoyed some peace and fresh air in this place for the remaining time.
Lathel glanced at Claire; she lowered her head to look at the fire when he looked at her, but she occasionally glanced at Lathel.
Lathel saw this scene and sighed. He felt that if Claire were on earth, he would definitely advise her to try becoming an actress.
"Can't you choose another path?" Lathel frowned and asked.
"The other paths are very difficult, and they go through the territory of other monsters." The young man explained: "This is the shortest and easiest path."
"After entering this forest, it is very difficult to escape because both sides are cliffs, you can only run forward or backward."
Hearing that, Lathel also understood where the problem lay.
If they climbed the mountain, they would enter the territory of other monsters, so they decided to go into this forest.
But what people don't know is that in this forest, there is a monster that is much more terrifying than the monsters in the mountains.
Lathel frowned and said: "You guys go to the meeting point, Claire, take them to the meeting point, I will follow you."
"No!" Claire stood up and hurriedly walked to Lathel's side: "I'll go with you." I have the gift of Healing, I... I can help you."
"No need, you should help these people first. Just take them to the meeting point." Lathel shook his head and replied: "Don't worry about me, I just want to see if anyone else needs help and then leave immediately."
"But..."
Claire wanted to say something, but Lathel immediately interrupted: "Stop talking. Just do as I say, quickly!"
After Lathel finished speaking, he immediately ran into the darkness. Claire stood there stunned, then gritted her teeth and said: "Follow me, hurry up."
"Thanks..."
The young man was about to thank her when Claire turned her head to look at him with murderous intent. He immediately fell silent, unable to say anything more.
After that, the five people looked at each other, knowing that Claire was extremely upset. They didn't want to anger her, so they just silently followed her.
...
Lathel ran less than two hundred metres when he saw a large fire in the distance.
He tried to run faster, but just a few minutes later, he saw a horrifying scene.
The ground was engulfed in fire, corpses were lying everywhere, and he estimated that there were more than twenty charred bodies.
In the distance, there were several people trying to escape, and their bodies were covered in blood and burns.
The most special thing here was a monster resembling a Komodo dragon with scales on its body that resembled that of red carp scales. The scales shone with the light of the surrounding fires.
It was more than three metres high and about seven metres long. The scales on its body were extremely sturdy; Lathel could see that no one using bows, arrows, or swords could scratch its scales.
"That is..." Lathel muttered.
At this time, Cauldron said: "Yes, it is a Fire Drake. Its level is very high, around level 50, I can even feel that it is about to break through to level 60."
"Impossible!" Lathel gritted his teeth and said: "So many people died, but where are the academy staff?"
"It seems they are also fighting that monster." Cauldron explained: "This forest has a type of sealing magic that causes people whose level is higher than 40 to be level 40."
"That's why the Fire Drake monster here is no different from a wolf, and you guys are sheep."
"No OK! We must save them."
"Are you crazy?" Hearing Lathel speak, Cauldron shouted: "Didn't you hear what I just said? Its level is nearly 60, and your level is only 20. Do you think you can defeat it?
"But..." Lathel looked at the contestants participating in this round, who were desperately running away and even desperately trying to resist the monster's power.
Among those people, there were also a few who were employees of the academy, however, they could not resist the terrible power of the Fire Drake.
Lathel gritted his teeth and said: "Even if we can't defeat it, at least we can hold it back and let everyone run away."
"You... you are crazy!"
