Chapter 538: The Change at Night

Xia Wentao.

Stood stiff for two seconds.

In order to look back, he kept encouraging himself in his heart.

Not looking back could still deceive himself; once he looked back, he might have to face the cruel truth.

"There is nothing, this is an illusion!"

Xia Wentao comforted himself like this, turned his head and looked down, and what he saw almost made him faint.

Under his feet, it should have been a land turtle.

But now it was a strange monster. This monster carried a turtle shell, but had human limbs and a head extending from the gap in the turtle shell.

This turtle shell was too small.

The human limbs extending out were all squeezed and deformed, and flesh and internal organs grew from the edges. Blood kept seeping out from the gaps in the turtle shell.

Even more miserable was the head.

The interface between the neck and the turtle shell was squeezed to only half of its original size. The exposed part was swollen and purple-red due to congestion. Blood, flesh, and hair were mixed together on the top of the head, the skull was slightly deformed, and there was a blood-red dent at the tree root. This wound was hit by hitting the tree! The monster's purple-red face lifted, and its almost protruding eyes stared fixedly at Xia Wentao.

"Stay, stay, let's change, I don't want to be a turtle anymore, I want to be a human, you stay!"

Xia Wentao was horrified.

He kicked the monster's face hard, crying and cursing anxiously while kicking.

"Let go, let go quickly!"

But no matter how Xia Wentao kicked, this turtle-man grabbed his hand tightly, without the slightest intention of letting Xia Wentao go.

There were more and more "animals" around.

There were "dog-men" lying on the ground, covered in black hair, with torn cheeks and deformed skulls.

There were "chicken-men" with bird beaks on their mouths, scalp peeling off on both sides and sticking in the middle, and skin and flesh spreading on their arms like bloody wings.

These animals were peaceful during the day, but now they were all monsters crawling out of hell.

The combination of human and beast images had many ways, some cute, some hard-core, and these things appearing in front of Xia Wentao presented the most twisted and terrifying appearance!

They rushed toward everyone, all shouting similar content in their mouths.

"Why are you humans!"

"And we have to be beasts!"

Facing these deformed "animals," Xia Wentao was desperate. Facing death, his mind recalled what happened an hour ago.

After throwing away Han Hao's severed arm, Xia Wentao was angered by Ma San's contemptuous attitude and grabbed Ma San's collar to question him loudly.

"Han Hao, he had an accident!"

"I told you just now that his state was wrong, just to let you think of a way to help him!"

"You two are Lotus Juanren! You are more familiar with the Fudi, have experienced more life-and-death crises, and wanting to save Han Hao should be very simple!"

Kang Tiantian reached out from the side and broke Xia Wentao's fingers. The severe pain forced him to let go.

Ma San straightened his collar and looked at Xia Wentao with a cold expression.

"I can save him, but I can also not save him."

"We agreed to group up just to search for statues more efficiently, not to be bodyguards for you newcomers."

"Give you a piece of advice."

"All abilities to counter malevolent entities in the Fudi are consumable. If you want to survive in the Fudi, you must maintain rationality, abandon unnecessary emotions, and avoid unnecessary consumption..."

"We are all mortals, needing to use all our skills to survive. Only the strong have the energy to protect others."

"You are not the strong... and neither am I."...

From that moment on.

Xia Wentao was disappointed in the Lotus Juanren.

He witnessed the cruelty of the Fudi. Here, only he could be responsible for himself. He no longer expected to get help from the Lotus Juanren when encountering danger.

But now.

Xia Wentao was grabbed by a turtle.

A "plum blossom deer" with half a human head strung on each of its two horns and full of blood pits was charging at him. How could he rely on himself to survive? *Crack! * The plum blossom deer suddenly stepped into a mud pit. Because of its excessive speed, its two legs broke with a *crack*. This was the "Obstruction Technique" brought by Huo Shutong using the 【Difficult to Move】 blessing.

Wu Xian swung the Blood Thorn Silk, hitting the plum blossom deer's head, causing crimson blood flames to ignite on its head.

Wen Tinghua pulled out a short knife from her waist and chopped off the turtle's hand bone with one knife.

Su Mi lifted the turtle and threw it out like a shot put, then questioned the dazed Xia Wentao.

"Run, why are you stunned?"

Before Xia Wentao could reply, Su Mi had already grabbed his shoulder, carried him, and started running toward the dormitory. Xia Wentao looked at Su Mi's shoulder and saw that everyone was running toward the dormitory, especially Ma San and his wife, who started running when the turtle-man first appeared and had already entered the dormitory now.

Those animals that surrounded them naturally wouldn't let Wu Xian and the others enter the dormitory, rushing toward this side one by one.

Each terrifying face could stop a child from crying at night, and the resentful voices made people feel cold in their hearts, especially the speed of some animals, which far exceeded that of humans.

But they finally escaped back to the dormitory safely.

This was all thanks to Huo Shutong's Obstruction Technique. She could trip each animal once, which allowed everyone to enter the house safely.

The first animal stopped at the steps of the dormitory entrance. Animal after animal squeezed at the entrance, deformed human-beast flesh and blood squeezed together, letting out unwilling roars toward the dormitory lobby.

Wu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked up at the time and found that it was exactly six o'clock in the evening, and the sky officially darkened at this moment.

It seems that as long as night falls, the danger level of the training center will increase by one level. Those safe animals during the day will all start attacking humans.

Perhaps it's not just these animals; other places in the school will also become more dangerous.

Fortunately, these animals couldn't enter the dormitory, so they hadn't encountered attacks from these things before.

For the first two nights, they had always been on the ninth floor, and even if they looked down from the window, they couldn't see these things.

Others went upstairs one after another.

Wu Xian observed for a short while and prepared to go upstairs too.

But just as he turned his head, he suddenly felt a cold gaze coming from behind. This gaze made him feel uncomfortable all over, especially the cat whiskers on his face were trembling.

Wu Xian turned his head sharply and looked at the source of the abnormal feeling.

He saw under a tree in the distance.

Standing there were six blurry human figures. These six human figures had beast characteristics, but they were more harmonious than the group of evil things squeezing at the entrance.

Among them.

Was a slightly fat old lady. This old lady had gray hair, but her face was a cat face full of wrinkles and some hair loss!

She looked at Wu Xian and revealed a strange smile.

Wu Xian confirmed that this thing was the cat he was looking for, and it was this old lady who cursed him! But in tonight's situation, Wu Xian couldn't pull himself away to kill her.

He could only deeply imprint her appearance in his mind.
