A sense of urgency surged in A Tie's heart. Although he tried to stay calm, he knew that facing the ferocious Shadow Blade Leopard, any slackness could lead to disastrous consequences. He took a deep breath and comforted in a low and firm voice: "Don't panic, we are numerous and there will always be a way to deal with this powerful enemy. Carl, you are responsible for using magic to distract its attention; Jasmine, you must always be ready to heal our teammates; you rangers, be sure to find the right time to attack from a distance. I will take the initiative to attract its hatred and create opportunities for you."

After speaking, A Tie raised his huge sword, and the sword body flashed cold light in the sun, as if responding to his inner fighting spirit. His roar was as loud as thunder, stirring everyone's heart, as if it could dispel the fear around him. His figure rushed forward quickly, and the sound of his footsteps echoed in the empty valley, full of courage and determination.

"Be careful!" Xu Lai shouted on the side, his voice full of anxiety and uneasiness. His hand quickly put on the bowstring, and the arrow flashed cold light between his fingers, and then flew out. The shadow blade leopard, covered with black hair, was like a ghost lurking in the night. Its howl of pain was so piercing that it instantly interrupted its attack rhythm. Ah Tie seized this rare opportunity and slashed its forelimbs without hesitation. The sound of the blade colliding with the muscle was so crisp and loud that it seemed to tear the air.

However, shockingly, the shadow blade leopard seemed to have no reaction to the pain, as if its body had long been accustomed to this pain. Its attack did not slow down, but became more fierce, rushing towards Ah Tie like a violent storm. Its speed was so fast that it was jaw-dropping. Carl's spells were always a beat slower and could not effectively interfere with its movements. And the arrows of the two rangers, no matter how accurate they were, seemed to have difficulty finding the target under such circumstances.

The battle became more and more tense, and Xu Lai's heart was like a rolling wave, with anxiety and fear intertwined. He clenched his teeth and secretly called out to the mysterious black-armored demon lizard in his heart. He had tried to call out in his heart before, and found that the black-armored demon lizard could indeed sense his call, and this induction seemed to have no distance limit. However, frustratingly, every time the demon lizard responded, the words it "said" were difficult for him to understand. Perhaps because of the difference in level, the black-armored demon lizard could not communicate with him effectively.

At this moment, the moment of life and death came, and Xu Lai did not care about so many concerns and questions. A strong desire to survive ignited in his heart, as if that was his only hope. While he kept shooting arrows, trying to use his own strength to weaken the enemy's attack, he shouted in his heart: "Black-armored demon lizard, come and help me!"

His voice echoed in his heart, as if calling a long-lost friend. However, whether the black-armored demon lizard could hear his call and whether it could come to help as he wished was still an unknown mystery. At this moment, Xu Lai's heart was full of urgency and uneasiness, but he knew that only by going all out could he fight for a glimmer of hope in this life-and-death struggle. His fingers were numb, but he still persisted, and the arrows flew out like rain. Although the chance of hitting the target was very small, the unyielding faith in his heart never wavered.

At this moment, the attack of the Shadow Blade Leopard came again, as fast as lightning. Xu Lai had almost no time to react, and panic broke out in his heart. A flash of despair flashed in his eyes, but was immediately replaced by anger and determination. He knew that only by doing his best could he protect his companions and win hope for his own survival. So he took a deep breath and silently said in his heart: "Black Armored Demon Lizard, please, come quickly!"

At this time, A Tie had already started a fierce fight with the Shadow Blade Leopard. The giant sword swung in his hand, drawing beautiful and deadly arcs, and each attack was full of power and determination. His heart was filled with the desire for victory, but facing this nightmare-like creature, he knew that his own strength was far from enough. The rhythm of the battle became increasingly tense, and the air around was filled with a strong sense of urgency, as if the whole world was holding its breath for this life-and-death duel.

"Black-armored Demon Lizard, come and help me!" Xu Lai kept shouting in his heart, and the voice echoed in his mind, as if he was fighting against fate. His arrows flew out like raindrops. Although the hit rate was not high, he was still unwilling to give up. The strong desire to survive in his heart drove him to keep moving forward. At this moment, Xu Lai suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if something was responding to his call.

He looked up suddenly, and the scene in front of him shocked him. The black-armored demon lizard, emitting a mysterious light all over its body, was slowly moving towardsHe approached. Its eyes gleamed with wisdom, as if listening to his heart. At this moment, Xu Lai's heart was full of hope and strength, as if he had found a new life in this desperate situation.

"Black-armored Demon Lizard, come and help me!" He shouted again, his voice full of determination and desire. At this moment, he was no longer the boy who feared the darkness, but a brave warrior, ready to fight fate to the end.

A Tie had been forced to use even the last skill, his face full of fatigue and despair. At this moment, his heart was full of helplessness, as if all his strength had been drained by this sudden battle, and every cell in his body was protesting. His hands trembled slightly, and the sweat oozing from his forehead flashed a faint light under the sunlight, reflecting his embarrassment and uneasiness at the moment.

Looking at the terrifying speed of the Shadow Blade Leopard, everyone knew that running away was no longer a viable option. It was like a ghost in the dark, silent but extremely swift, which made people feel terrified. The deep eyes were fierce, as if they could see through everyone's mind, which was chilling. Everyone in the team could feel the overwhelming pressure, as if the whole world was closing in on them, and the feeling of suffocation was getting stronger.

Just then, a deafening roar came from afar, shaking the air around, as if the whole earth was trembling. The black-armored demon lizard was like an angry beast, instantly breaking into the battlefield. Its body was huge, and its black scales flashed a cold luster in the sun, giving people an invisible sense of oppression. It did not hesitate to directly crash into the shadow blade leopard, making a dull crash, as if announcing its arrival.

"What is this situation?!" Carl looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment, his heart full of doubts and uneasiness. There was a tremor in his voice, as if even he himself could not believe what was happening in front of him. At this moment, countless possibilities flashed through his mind, but none of them could explain this sudden change.

"Who cares, it's important to leave first! This is a good opportunity for us to escape!" Xu Lai said hurriedly, with a sense of urgency in his voice. His eyes wandered around, fearing that he would miss any chance to escape. At this moment, his heart was filled with a desire to survive, completely ignoring the chaos and danger in front of him. He knew that only by surviving could he have a chance to face those unknown challenges again.

A Tie hesitated for a moment, and his inner struggle swept over like a storm: "Xu Lai is right, we can't beat this monster now, so let's retreat first. Who knows what's going on with them, maybe they are fighting for territory." He thought secretly in his heart, although he was unwilling, but at this critical moment of life and death, reason told him that he had to make a choice. His voice was low and firm, as if he was cheering himself up. Although he still felt a little uneasy in his heart, he also understood that this choice was the only way out.

So, taking advantage of the gap between the two monsters fighting, a group of people quickly ran to the outskirts of the dense forest. The trees passed by them quickly, and the rustling sound of the branches and leaves rubbing against each other seemed to accompany their escape. The air was filled with the smell of soil and grass leaves, which made people feel a hint of vitality, but at this moment no one was savoring it carefully. Everyone had only one thought in their mind, that is, to escape from this terrifying battlefield.

Xu Lai looked back, and the scene in front of him made him feel a complex emotion. The black-armored demon lizard was biting the shadow blade leopard. Although it was at a disadvantage, the shadow blade leopard could not do anything to it with its hard scales. The two monsters fought fiercely in this dense forest. Trees were knocked down and the ground was torn into pieces. It seemed that the whole world was shaking because of their fight.

"Thank you, black-armored demon lizard." Xu Lai said silently in his heart, and gratitude rose quietly in his heart. Although there was no friendship between them, the black-armored demon lizard at this moment seemed to be their life-saving straw, buying them precious time to escape. Looking at the figure struggling to fight against the shadow blade leopard, Xu Lai couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart, thinking: Maybe in this dangerous land, even enemies can become friends.

At the same time, his thoughts began to drift back to the past, missing those high-level pets who had been with him. If they were also by his side at this moment, the situation would probably be completely different. At that time, he had great strength and fearless courage, and he was always calm when facing the enemy. However, now, he can only lead this team to evacuate quickly, with helplessness and regret in his heart, temporarily abandoning the black-armored demon lizard and this sudden battle.

During the escape, A Tie's mood became heavier. He recalled his former pride and courage, but now he was in this crisis-ridden land.'s land has become so small. Every step seemed to step on his heart, painful and helpless. Everyone in the team was running desperately, but there seemed to be an invisible barrier between them, and they could not really share the fear and anxiety in their hearts.

"We must survive." A Tie swore silently in his heart, his eyes firm, as if at that moment, he felt the strength deep in his heart. He knew that only by persisting could he find real hope and a way out. Although the road ahead was still unknown, a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart, illuminating the coming darkness.

A group of people ran panting in the dense forest. The roots and stones under their feet were like lurking enemies at their feet, tripping them from time to time, forcing them to be extra careful. The black-armored demon lizard and shadow blade leopard behind them made a deafening roar, as if they were roaring to tear them into pieces. The sound was like thunder, echoing in the dark forest, making people feel tight, and the emotion of fear surged like a tide, almost drowning them.

At such a tense moment, no one wanted to talk, and even their breathing sounded cautious, as if they would bring about a greater disaster if they were not careful. At this moment, the only thought was to escape! Escape from this suffocating fear, escape from the monster that was following them like the god of death.

Finally, when the terrible roar gradually disappeared in their ears, as if swept away by the ruthless wind, everyone dared to stop and sit on the ground, feeling the warmth and safety of the earth. They gasped, their chests rose and fell, as if they had just experienced a life-and-death test, and the sound of their hearts beating wildly echoed in their ears, accompanied by the occasional birdsong in the forest, which seemed particularly harsh.

"Just now, the demon lizard came just in time! If it hadn't appeared, we would have died here." Carl finally recovered and wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a bit of gratitude and relief in his tone, as if the demon lizard was their savior and gave them hope of life.

"Yes, we are so lucky! If the demon lizard had appeared half a minute later, we would have been finished." Jasmine patted her chest, the frightened expression on her face still not gone, her fingers trembled slightly, as if she was still recalling the fear just now, and there was a trace of uneasiness in her eyes. Her voice echoed gently in the air, like a sigh for fate, and also like helplessness for the future.

A Tie clenched his giant sword, and the sword body flashed cold light in the sun, as if telling his inner uneasiness and doubts. He turned his head and looked at Xu Lai, took a deep breath, and tried to turn the doubts in his heart into words: "Xu Lai, do you know what happened to the demon lizard? Why did it suddenly rush out to help us?" His voice was low and firm, as if he was seeking an answer, eager to uncover this sudden mystery.

"Ah?" Xu Lai was stunned for a moment, and his mind quickly turned around, trying to put on an expression of "I am also confused" to try to hide the fluctuations in his heart. Countless possibilities flashed through his mind, but each one seemed pale and powerless. "How do I know? Maybe it's God's will? In such a dangerous place, it's normal for wild monsters to fight each other." There was a bit of helplessness in his words, as if he was defending himself and comforting the people around him.

Carl lowered his head, frowned, and seemed to be thinking about something. The anxiety in his heart became more and more obvious on his face. Suddenly, he raised his head, staring at Xu Lai with a sharp gaze, and his tone was full of doubt: "Something is wrong! This is too coincidental. Do you know anything about this forest that you haven't told us?" There was a hint of uneasiness in his voice, as if he was asking about a long-buried secret.

"Otherwise, how could you, the only one who fell behind, stay here for so many days and be fine?" Carl's questioning was like a sharp blade, piercing Xu Lai's heart, making him feel suffocated. The air around him seemed to solidify instantly, and even the rustling of leaves became distant and weak. Only the heartbeat echoed in his ears, which could not be ignored.

Xu Lai's heart was in a panic, and his thoughts seemed to be drawn into a whirlpool, unable to extricate himself. He wanted to explain, but he couldn't find the right words. The secret of the forest seemed to emerge quietly in his mind, but he couldn't sort out those vague memories and the truth one by one. The companions in front of him were all his friends who shared life and death. He didn't want to disappoint them, nor did he want them to doubt him.

"I... I really don't know." Xu Lai finally stammered, his voice was weak and almost blown away by the wind. His heart was full of struggle and anxiety, as if in this mysterious forest, there was a secret that he couldn't tell. His eyes flickered, as if he was thinkingWhat was he thinking about? The fear and doubt in his heart were intertwined, making him feel heavy.

In this dark forest, the breath of fear still enveloped them, and it seemed that even the sunlight could not penetrate the thick haze. Everyone had their own doubts and uneasiness buried in their hearts. However, in the face of unknown threats, they could only unite tightly and try to find a glimmer of hope in this dangerous environment.

When Xu Lai heard what A Tie said, his heart suddenly tensed up as if it was hit by a heavy hammer, but his face remained calm. He waved his hand and said, "Hey, don't guess! If I really knew this place so well, how could I be so embarrassed? Just now, if I hadn't been lucky, I would have been beaten into a meat pie by that ferocious leopard!"

Moli, who was standing next to him, was also panting with exhaustion. She nodded to show her agreement with Xu Lai's words, and said weakly, "Okay, okay, let's stop talking for a while and take a rest. The thrilling and desperate run just now almost broke my legs..." After that, he collapsed on the ground.

A Tie on the other side slowly walked to a big rock and sat down. He stared at Xu Lai with his sharp hawk-like eyes for a long time, and then he said thoughtfully: "The demon lizard just now was indeed unusual. I don't know if you noticed that when it rushed towards us, it could have pounced directly on you, but it seemed to deliberately avoid you and took a detour. If it is to protect you, it seems that it is not completely impossible."

Xu Lai heard this, and his mind suddenly "buzzed" and cursed in his heart. This A Tie is really amazing, and he can observe so meticulously. But now that things have come to this, he can only continue to play dumb. So he pretended to be very surprised and shouted: "What? Protect me? How is that possible! If it really wanted to protect me, I could have easily returned to the Novice Village! Why would I have to run away with you guys here!" After hearing this, A Tie did not choose to continue asking questions. He just nodded calmly, indicating that he had understood the current situation. At this moment, another ranger in the crowd suddenly interrupted and said, "Everyone, don't worry about where this mysterious demon lizard came from! The most important thing at the moment is that it really saved our lives just now! Think about it, this forest is too dangerous and unpredictable. If we insist on continuing to explore, we may encounter more unexpected crises and powerful enemies. So in my opinion, why don't we turn around and go back? This way, at least we can ensure our own safety!"

"Go back?" Hearing the suggestion made by the ranger, Carl, who had been silent all the time, frowned instantly, and a trace of obvious dissatisfaction appeared on his face. He crossed his arms and retorted with a firm look in his eyes: "If we give up so easily and go back home in disgrace, wouldn't it mean that all our previous efforts will be wasted? No! I am absolutely unwilling to return empty-handed!"

After hearing the two people's tit-for-tat opinions, Jasmine, who was standing aside, couldn't help but start to hesitate. She bit her lip and thought for a moment, then timidly expressed her opinion: "Although I also understand that continuing to move forward may face huge risks, but as Carl said, if we retreat and return, then all the preparations we have made during this period of time will be in vain? But... speaking of which, the deeper we go into the forest, the stronger and more ferocious the monsters we encounter will become. With our current strength, are we really sure that we can successfully deal with those unknown challenges? This is really worrying..." At this time, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn, and everyone fell into a brief silence. After a while, A Tie broke the deadlock and said in a low and steady voice: "Okay, everyone, don't argue endlessly. At this point, no matter what, we must formulate a practical action plan as soon as possible. Brother Xu Lai, I wonder if you have any unique insights on what to do next?" After speaking, A Tie turned his eyes to Xu Lai, who had not spoken in the team.

Xu Lai was fiddling with his equipment when he heard Ah Tie calling his name. He looked up and smiled, "Me? I thinkWell... since we are here, we should make the best of it. Although the forest is dangerous, the rewards here must be good.

It would be a pity to go back like this. "

"I knew you would say that." Carl seemed to have found an ally.

"A Tie, listen to Xu Lai's advice. Although he doesn't look good, he has performed well along the way."

"Okay, let's keep going." A Tie stood up.

"But everyone has to be alert next time, and don't panic like before when you encounter danger again."

Everyone nodded and began to organize their equipment, ready to continue.

Xu Lai followed the team at the end, but he was thinking about the next step in his heart.

He knew that the level of monsters in this forest was getting higher and higher, and he couldn't always rely on pretending to be weak to get by.

"We have to think of a way to protect these people without exposing ourselves." He muttered in a low voice.

There was a rustling sound not far away, Xu Lai frowned, raised his hand and signaled everyone to stop: "Hush, don't move, there is movement. "

A Tie immediately became alert and raised his huge sword to block everyone: "Is it a monster?"

Mo Li clenched her staff: "It won't be that kind of high-level monster again, right?"

Xu Lai closed his eyes and pretended to listen carefully, but actually used telepathy to contact the black-armored demon lizard.

"That guy should not be dead, right? Why didn't he catch up?" He frowned, feeling a little irritated.

At this time, the bushes in front shook, and a player wearing tattered leather armor ran out of it in a panic.

"Help! Help!" The man shouted while running.

A Tie immediately rushed forward: "What's going on? What did you encounter?"

"There are monsters behind...behind!" The man panted and pointed behind him.

"It's...it's a poisonous fog spider! A lot of poisonous fog spiders!"
