Jack looked at Shax and immediately pulled out his sword from Mustard Seed.
Whether or not he could succeed, he would still try it out. After all, he did not have any conflicts with Shax.
However, before he could even do anything, the vines grew rapidly and suddenly crawled up Shax's body!
At that moment, Shax was completely wrapped by the brown vines.
The strange flowers that were on the vines constantly devoured Shax's body. He only struggled for a bit more
before he stopped moving. His body was rapidly failing.
Just taking two breaths felt like an eternity. Shax's body had already rotted so much that he was practically gone.
By the time anyone tried to help, it was already too late.
The sight was just far too strange. They found themselves unsure of what to do.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShax's corpse slammed onto the ground. The strange flowers looked even more vibrant. A gentle breeze caused
them to rustle.
"What is that?"
"I don't know! Wellis, do you?"
Wellis frowned before he sighed. He looked at Shax's corpse and fell silent for a moment.
He did not like that man, but he was not happy that the man died just like that as well. He had already reminded
Shax, but Shax had refused to listen to him. If Shax had just followed Wellis the moment Wellis walked away, this
would not have happened.
Wellis said coldly, "An evil beast!"
Everyone was surprised to hear that.
An evil beast?
There were evil beasts like that?
That thing clearly looked like a man-eating plant!
Wellis frowned, "All of you know about the rules of the Evil Plains. Don't you all already know? In the Evil Plains,
there are all sorts of evil beasts. These evil beasts are nothing alike other than their knack for stealth! I've even
seen evil beasts that look like rocks!"
"If I hadn't noticed it earlier, then we'd have been in trouble. If some look like rocks, then it's only normal for there
to be beasts that look like vines! There's nothing to be surprised about."
Everyone felt a chill go down their spine after that. What happened earlier had left a deep impression in their
minds.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe man in red robes said, "But why didn't Shax feel any danger just now? He didn't even feel any pain. It's just
too..."
He did not know how to describe it. If they had not reminded him, Shax would not even have known that his legs
were already starting to rot.
Everything had happened without anyone noticing. No one knew how Shax had been attacked and when it started.
Shax was not at the peak of strength in their group, but he was considered quite strong. Even he did not know that
he had been attacked. If it was any of the others, it would have been the same thing.
Just thinking about that made their expressions solemn!
Someone's lips trembled as he said, "Are all of you going to stay here? Are you certain that there's only one evil
beast?"
That served as a reminder for everyone else.
Jack and Wellis exchanged a look, and immediately left the area.
They brought everyone and continued to advance for a kilometer before they stopped for a short rest.
Everyone still had dark looks on their faces. After all, everything had happened so suddenly and shockingly.
