Chapter 2717: Critical Moment (4)
The worm’s teeth were so sharp that it chewed on the sword and swallowed it.
It ate the sword.
If it could eat metal without difficulty, what about human flesh?
Everyone paled.
Ye Han was still shocked, when a worm bit down on her neck.
“Ah!”
Ye Han reacted quickly enough. The worm missed her neck and bit her on the shoulder.
It buried its teeth in her flesh, and blood gushed out.
Needless to say, it was excruciating. The worse thing was that the worms also fed on rotten meat they found underground, and their saliva was poisonous!
Ye Han was terrified and screamed at the top of her lungs.
Before long, Shan Jingfei was injured as well.
A worm bit her on the calf.
She screamed and kicked the worm away, but it was too late.
Her calf was swollen, and the affected area was expanding.
Shan Jingfei felt dizzy. Was she going to die?
More people were injured and fell.
The situation was becoming more serious.
Just then, they heard a strange chewing sound.
“What’s that?” Ye Han was resting, and she cried out when she heard it.
She searched for the source of the noise.
What she saw terrified her.
Because!
It was coming from the walls.
The tunnel was only wide enough for one person to pass through, and it had helped to block the worms out. However, they were gnawing on the stone walls now.
They were creating large holes in the walls now.
To be more precise, they had widened the tunnels.
Multiple tunnels led to the place the students were in, and when the openings were widened, the tunnels combined into one.
The space had opened up.
Shan Jingfei and her friends turned ghastly pale. They trembled from head to toe and thought they were going to die here.
Even members of Xuecheng Team seemed frightened.
The worms made gloating sounds as they crawled toward their meal.
“I don’t want to die!” Ye Han screamed.
Shan Jingfei tried to contact Qiu Zeyu, but here in the mine, they were completely cut off from the outside world.
“Can someone help us? I don’t want to die! If someone can save us, I promise I’ll do whatever I can to repay them!”
However, nobody answered their distress call.
50 worms…
100…
200…
It was as if all the worms in the mine were moving toward them.
Shan Jingfei and the others lost all hope.
They had never been so close to death before.
The inevitable was about to happen.
“Hey!”
They suddenly heard a different sound.
They looked up.
They then saw a colorful bird that was only the size of a fist.
It landed on Shan Jingfei’s head.
