Chapter 1272
The dark silhouette knocked three people down ina row like a ghost.
Of the three people, two were from Eastshire, whereas the other was from Stonedale.
None of them stirred after letting out a few blood- curdling screams; obviously, they must have met their doom.
The dark silhouette then jumped on Quincy, but he had prepared himself for this.
Raising the fan in his hand, he flicked the dark silhouette away with one blow.
With that, the dark silhouette flew into the darkness and disappeared from sight, but everyone at the scene was
panic-stricken and in a state of confusion.
"|-Is that the guardian beast?"
"What the hell is it?"
"Why didn't | see anything?"

Everyone gave a cry of fright one after another as they truly had the fright of their lives.
Rose and the others, who were walking behind the crowd, were scared at the sight of the situation.
Luckily, we let those from Stonedale and Eastshire walk ahead of us just now, or it would probably have been our
people who are dead now.
After a flurry of confusion, everyone finally regained their composure.
They then looked at the three people on the ground, who had gone black in the face and were no longer
breathing at this moment.
All of them died of poison.
Edmund's face was deathly pale.
He said ina trembling voice, "T-This had to be that guardian beast's doing! That guardian beast is highly
poisonous.T-This is too dangerous... The others from Stonedale and Eastshire trembled all over with fright, too.
For a moment, none of them dared to go on any further.
Quincy pretended to give them a few words of comfort before persuading them to go on ahead, but those from
Stonedale and Eastshire dared not walk at the front anymore at this moment.
At the sight of the situation, Quincy whispered, "Everyone, as you've seen just now, I've chased that guardian
beast to the path behind us. If you guys walk behind us now, it'll be even more dangerous!" Only then did
everyone recall that the guardian beast had indeed been chased to the back by Quincy just now.
Of course, they no longer dared to go backward, so they all rushed to the front.Quincy sneered in secret.
This time, he walked behind everyone else on the pretext of helping everyone ward off the guardian beast
behind them, but in reality, Matthew noticed the slyness in his eyes.
As Matthew had expected, after everyone walked on for stime, several other dark silhouettes jumped on
them from the front.
Before those from Stonedale and Eastshire, who were walking ahead of everyone else, could realize what had
happened, they had been knocked down by the dark silhouettes. Edmund, who was walking with them, was
paralyzed with fright when he saw a dark silhouette jumping on him.
At that critical moment, Matthew, who was standing nearby, suddenly grabbed his collar and dragged him back
half a step.
The next instant, Matthew kicked out at the dark silhouette, sending it flying instantly.
Edmund instantly teared up as he narrowly escaped death. He was really scared to death just now! The others
from Stonedale and Eastshire weren't that lucky, though. There were over 30 of them in total, but it didn't take

Luckily, Quincy and his men rushed toward them at this moment.
They hacked away at these dark silhouettes with machetes in their hands, solving the crisis eventually.
Panic-stricken, those from Stonedale and Eastshire hid nearby, breathing heavily while trembling all over with
fright.
It wasn't until Quincy lit up the ground with his torchlight that everyone had a good look at what the dark
silhouettes actually were.
In reality, these dark silhouettes were a few venomous snakes that were crimson in color.
These snakes were less than one meter long, but each of them was as thick as a fist.
Thanks to such thickness, these venomous snakes were incredibly strong, which allowed them to leap in place as
if they were flying.
Seeing the twisted carcasses of the snakes on the ground, everyone trembled all over with fright.
"A-Are these the guardian beasts?" asked an elder from Eastshire in a trembling voice.
Quincy slowly nodded before saying hypocritically, "Seems like these are the guardian beasts! Sigh, | really
didn't expect to cacross so many of them; | thought there was only one of them! I-I'm so sorry for making
you lose so many of your people! Nobody knows what kind of dangers are awaiting us. How about you guys stay
here while we go ahead and explore the way ahead of us?"
