The Steel-Mane Bear and the Black Jade Lion stood among the beasts.
At this moment, they didn't even have time for discussion.
Expecting those Calamity Beast to be stubborn and not reveal their identities? Dream on! Do you think they're those humans?
No, even among the humans, quite a few actually provided information, let alone the Calamity Beast who were born almost entirely self-centered!
Therefore, they are left with only one path to take!
Although this road was a dead end with a visible conclusion, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue on.
What should we do next? Fight or run?
Steel-Mane Bear thought to himself with a gloomy expression.
It did come up with two solutions, but both solutions seemed to lead to the same result!
With an extremely unpleasant expression, Steel-Mane Bear glanced irritably to the side.
I was just glancing casually, about to look away, but I stopped abruptly.
In the field of vision, a Calamity Beast was trying to appear calm as it gazed into the distance, but its body was trembling almost imperceptibly.
Without looking any further, Steel-Mane Bear withdrew its gaze.
It stared intently ahead.
Ahead, a little further away from the herd of beasts.
The captured Calamity Beast was somewhat disappointed to see that no other Calamity Beast were making any movement ahead.
Then, some of the Calamity Beast began to hesitate, wondering whether or not to summon those other Calamity Beast.
But they hadn't had time to figure it out yet.
A voice immediately rang out among them:
"Lord Black Spine, if I confess, will you let me leave this place?"
Hearing this, the other Calamity Beast also felt a glimmer of hope and looked at the largest Black Rat.
Black Spine glanced over coldly.
If it goes along with what they're saying at this point, it can easily get the information it wants.
But... do you think you can negotiate with these domesticated animals?
It raised its paws and spread them out to the side.
A Black Rat immediately understood and handed over the blood whip it was holding.
Then.
"Smack!"
Blood splattered on the Calamity Beast Calamity Beast, accompanied by its painful howl.
Then, without pausing, Black Spine lashed it twice more.
Seeing the figure lying on the ground groaning in agony, Black Spine turned its gaze to the other Calamity Beast beside it.
"Do you have anything you want to say?"
The several Calamity Beast exchanged glances.
Before he could even speak, he heard the Calamity Beast shout loudly:
"What's the point of saying anything? Saying it will kill you anyway, so what's the point?"
It stared intently at Black Spine and roared:
"You fools, you're trapped in the world created by the Speaker and you don't even realize it! You still think you're living in a real world? Let me tell you, you..."
"Smack!"
Blood splattered, accompanied by a piercing scream of pain.
Black Spine sneered at the freakish Calamity Beast, and this time, the blood whip in his hand did not stop.
The blood whip lashed at the Calamity Beast again and again.
The Calamity Beast was equally unyielding, continuing to curse.
However, as the process continued, its voice gradually weakened.
finally.
"Smack!"
After striking the Calamity Beast with the whip once more, Black Spine paused, its whip-wielding claws pausing as it fixed its gaze on the Calamity Beast.
The Calamity Beast lay coldly on the ground, its blood spreading to the sides.
Black Spine lowered its whip-wielding claws and looked at the remaining few Calamity Beast.
"Do you have anything you want to say?"
The several Calamity Beast exchanged glances, unsure whether they should speak.
Just like the Calamity Beast said, if you talk about it, you'll still die, so what's the point?
Seemingly sensing their thoughts, Black Spine Raises its Whip.
This time, it won't target any single Calamity Beast.
The remaining few were all cared for equally with rain and dew.
When the Black Rat caught them, they had already broken their legs. They couldn't even hide; they could only endure it.
The screams of pain echoed continuously across the field.
The rest of the Black Rat watched with great interest from the sidelines.
The herd of beasts ahead, however, had a different expression.
Some were just watching the spectacle; some were still shaken; and some seemed to recall something, their bodies shrinking slightly...
However, none of the Calamity Beast made any move.
The Steel-Mane Bear, amidst the herd, watched the scene unfold before it with a grim expression.
It wasn't just because those few Calamity Beast were being whipped there, but also because continuing to wait like this was no different from waiting to die.
Although it was just waiting to die, but...
Unable to contain itself any longer, it glanced sideways at the Black Jade Lion beside it, and said in as low a voice as possible:
Let's get started!
The Black Jade Lion turned its head and looked over. "Are you sure?"
"Of course, are we just going to wait here to die if we don't fight? Even if we don't fight, we can run away!" Steel-Mane Bear said in a deep voice.
The Black Jade Lion remained silent, offering no immediate response.
It certainly understands this principle, but...
"Wait, I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Shouts suddenly rang out from ahead.
One of the Calamity Beast, unable to bear the pain any longer, cried out.
The Steel-Mane Bear and the Black Jade Lion immediately looked over with grim expressions.
Although I knew long ago that they would be exposed sooner or later, I was still a little uneasy when I actually faced it...
The two Calamity Beast immediately abandoned all the suggestions they had just made.
Even if we really have to move, a little longer won't make a difference...
Ahead, the largest Black Rat, Black Spine, also stopped.
It looked at the Iron-Mane Beast that had just spoken and asked:
"Alright, who else do you have in common?"
There was no immediate response. The Iron-Mane Beast glanced cautiously at Black Spine, then said tentatively:
"Lord Black Spine, if I were to tell you, could you simply give me a quick death?"
This time, Black Spine didn't refuse; it responded with a smile:
"Can!"
Hearing this, the Iron-Mane Beast breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he would still die after speaking out, at least he was spared the pain of being whipped.
So, without hesitation, it spoke:
"I didn't see any other Calamity Beast, but the one we're following is a Tier 3 Blast-Armor Rhinoceros!"
Upon hearing this, Black Spine glanced indifferently to the side.
The Black Rat on the side understood, quickly stepped forward, and then shouted to the herd of beasts ahead:
"All Blast-Armor Rhinoceros, come out now!"
Upon hearing this, a commotion arose among the beasts.
Some were reluctant, but they had no choice; one after another, the Blast-Armor Rhinoceros emerged from the herd.
If they don't come out, they'll probably face the same fate as the captured Calamity Beast.
Moreover, they themselves knew whether they were accomplices of those Calamity Beast.
If you know you don't have this problem, you shouldn't worry too much.
So, one after another, Blast-Armor Rhinoceros emerged from the herd.
Along the way, the Calamity Beast all gave way, looking at them with disdain.
They were terrified that getting too close to these guys would cause trouble for Lord Black Rat!
However, their reactions differ.
Among the herd of beasts, two figures stared somewhat bewildered at the Blast-Armor Rhinoceros that had emerged.
Then, their gazes shifted, and they exchanged a glance.
They both noticed the confusion in each other's eyes.
What... is this guy saying?
