The great sword penetrated through the Tiger King's soft jaw directly through its head and skeleton. Now, the giant-toothed Tiger King finally couldn't struggle and fell heavily to the ground.
The moment they saw the giant-toothed demon tiger king fall, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
While killing the giant-toothed tiger king, Chen Ran absorbed a large amount of blood and soul energy and jumped from more than level nine to level 10 in one breath. Two new skills flashed again, showing activation.
Light and shadow technique: Light and shadow refraction to achieve invisibility and clone effects. The effect is affected by level and magic, and the level 10 is required.
Light curtain technique: emits dazzling light to cause blindness. The effect is affected by level and magic, and requires level 10.
But at this time, Chen Ran was not happy with the two new skills. The victory of this battle seemed a little heavy because of George's death. Several people walked to George's body, looked at the mushy half of the head, and bowed their heads together.
Jackdo's expression was very tired. He looked at the dead George, his face was not very good. Then he turned his head and said to Leah: "It's the limit to come here. There are many dangers like this in the deep forest. Leah, it's time for us to turn back..."
Facing George's death, although Lea felt a little guilty, her answer remained unchanged: "No, even if you are exposed, I will continue to move forward alone."
Unexpectedly, Leah is still determined to go deeper, and even Raul's eyes are puzzled: "Leah, let's go back. I know you may be looking for some treasures in it, but the dangers in the deep forest are really unpredictable. Being able to get here is our limit. If you go deeper, you may not be able to walk out. What can be more important than life?"
Leah was still obsessed with it: "No matter what you say, I will not change my mind. I will continue to move forward by myself. I am very grateful to you for accompanying me here. I don't want anything I have to do with the gains along the way."
Shield warrior Terry sat quietly aside, without saying anything. As usual, he seemed to be waiting for everyone's decision now.
Chen Ran looked at George's body with a sad look on his face and interrupted: "Don't say more, bury George's body first. After all, it's a match for a companion..."
Along the way, George, a middle-aged bachelor, left a deep impression on him. Not only did he jokingly let Chen Ran be the godfather of his future children during those nights, or evaluate what kind of woman is most suitable for being lovers and wife, but he also promised to go back and invite Chen Ran to go to a nightclub, which was the most talkative of the few.
Hearing Chen Ran's words, everyone nodded and digged a hole for George in tacit understanding.
It took nearly an hour for everyone to bury George's body in the soil, allowing him to enjoy peace and avoid being eaten by jackals in the forest.
After all this, everyone was more or less tired.
Jack poured a few more glasses of water and gave them to everyone, Lea, Raul, Terry and Chen Ran, each of them. Lea and Raul picked up the water and poured it into the water. At the same time, they took out the dry food they carried to replenish their energy.
Chen Ran was not very thirsty. He held the water cup and just put it in his mouth and took a sip or two, but didn't drink much. He looked at George's grave and sighed at the fragility of life.
At this time, while everyone was resting, Jackdo once again mentioned the previous topic: "Leah, are you really determined to enter the forest alone this time? To be honest, I don't plan to go inside anymore. I don't want to throw my life here. Not far ahead, there must be many existences that are not much weaker than the Giant Toothed Tiger King..."
"I know..." Leah shook her head apologetically: "I know your kindness, I also know the dangers of the group, but I have my own mission. I am sorry for George's death, but I will definitely find something important to me. I am willing to give everything, even my own life!"
Swordsman Raul walked to Leah, lifted his wet hair covered in sweat and pulled it behind him, looking a little sunny. He smiled and said, "Forget it, Leah, since you insist on entering alone, I will accompany you. You are alone, I am not at ease, even if I die, I am willing to die with you."
Raul's tone was sincere. This sincere confession made Chen Ran, the earthling who was used to watching soap operas, also moved. Raul turned his head and looked at Chen Ran and Shield Warrior Terry: "What about your choice?"
Terry raised his hand and said, "I chose to go back like Jackdo. I don't want to joke about my life. The battle just now was already very thrilling. This harvest was already very rich for me and it was not worth my risk."
The last gaze looked at Chen Ran.
Chen Ran put down the water cup and said helplessly: "Although I'm happy to know you, I chose to be like Jackdo and Terry. I chose to quit and go back with them."
In Chen Ran's opinion, although Leah is beautiful, what does it have to do with him? Looking at Raul's affectionate performance at this time, he felt that he should bless this silly boy. Raul is good, he has no worries, at least he looks much more pleasing than Jack.
"That means, Raul and Lea continue to move forward?" Jackdo's expression was a little ridiculed: "It seems that this is the end."
"Then bless us," Raul patted Jackdo's shoulder with a victory expression on his face. On the surface, these two Leah's suitors seemed to have achieved the final victory in this competition. At least, he chose to go with Leah.
"Roul, I really don't know what to say to you," Jackdo shook his head, then took out a pocket watch from his clothes, looked at it with an eyebrow, and murmured: "Time should be coming soon."
"When?" Raul looked at Jackdo's joking expression, feeling a little strange, and stood up instinctively. He suddenly realized that his body was as heavy as lead. Before he could stand up, he staggered to the ground. A strange color appeared on Lea's face, and she fell heavily to the ground.
"Jackdo, you're just in the water..." The clever Lea quickly reacted and remembered the clear water that Jackdo poured for them.
"Yes, you guessed it right," Jackdo smiled, but it made people feel an inexplicable gloom. "But don't worry, it's just a little drug, it won't be fatal."
Jackdo stood up with a smile, walked up to Leah, and said condescendingly: "Leah, you are really beautiful. I like you very much since I accidentally saw you walking into the Mercenary Guild to recruit people, so I have been on this boring adventure with you, everything is for you."
Jackdo leaned down and held Leah's chin with one hand, as if he was admiring a delicate work of art.
"Originally, I would like to be a little romantic like that hurt boy, and even compete with him, but along the way you didn't understand my good intentions at all. It was already my limit of patience here. Death of a few people is nothing in this jungle."
At this moment, a tall figure came from behind Jackdo, and it was Terry. Raul's eyes suddenly lit up, and he called for help as if he had grabbed the last straw.
"Terry, you're not poisoned? That's great! Jack is so crazy, subdue him first..."
