Chapter 19, Is the Black Vatican up to something again?
The attack was almost upon them, the wind it generated was deafening.
But the three-eyed wolf had already torn through the defenses that Little White had barely managed to maintain.
Zhan Kong's fierce fist was ready.
It's almost too late.
"Roar—!!!"
A roar far more violent and primal than that of the three-eyed wolf came.
The roar seemed to explode from the deepest part of the abyss, instantly drowning out all the noise in the valley.
The roar did not come from the outside, but from the cave where the three-eyed wolf had emerged.
Space was like a fragile piece of cloth being torn and twisted by an invisible force!
Immediately afterwards, the figure of a colossal beast, exuding a destructive aura, slowly emerged from the cave!
Old Black woke up.
It was angry.
Its body seemed more solid and massive than ever before, with its jet-black mane standing on end.
Those scarlet beast eyes burned with a furious rage that could consume everything, locked tightly on the demon wolf that was about to crush Little White!
Its enormous mouth, filled with menacing teeth, was now wide open to its limit!
An irresistible, terrifying suction force, seemingly capable of devouring stars and the sun and moon, suddenly erupted!
Ugh—!
The air emitted a strained shriek, forming a dark vortex that was visible to the naked eye and rapidly collapsing inward.
The rubble, withered grass, and even the pervasive stench of blood were all frantically swept towards that gaping maw of the abyss!
The three-eyed wolf's determined pounce was instantly interrupted and twisted by this tyrannical and unreasonable suction force!
Its massive body was as if gripped by an invisible giant hand, forcibly pulled away from the trajectory of the attack.
Four sharp claws dug deep furrows in the ground, but they were unable to escape from the gaping maw that exuded an aura of death.
"roar!!!"
For the first time, disbelief, terror, and bewilderment were revealed in the three eyes of the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf.
It struggled desperately, its sharp claws scratching wildly at the rocks on the ground, sparks flying everywhere, but like a flying insect trapped in a swamp, it was being pulled closer and closer to the abyss of death.
puff!
Finally, it ended with a muffled swallowing sound and a teeth-grinding creaking sound as bones were squeezed.
The once majestic three-eyed demon wolf, a warrior-level creature, was forcibly sucked into the giant maw beneath Old Black's neck.
The terrifying suction abruptly stopped, leaving only a scene of devastation and deathly silence.
Xiao Bai collapsed weakly at Xiao Yu's feet, the wounds on her side were shocking, but fortunately none of them were fatal.
Zhan Kong's figure landed with a bang, accompanied by a gust of wind. The powerful airflow generated by the wind wings made everyone lose their footing.
Zhan Kong's sharp gaze first pierced Xiao Yu, his voice like a volcano about to erupt: "Xiao Yu! You owe me a reasonable explanation. Why didn't it appear here as planned?! Do you know you almost killed everyone?!"
Every word was like a heavy hammer blow to Xiao Yu's heart.
"Chief Instructor, you can't blame me entirely, can you?" Xiao Yu was also exasperated, staring at Zhan Kong.
He then walked up to Old Black's enormous head and said, "Spit the person out."
"???" Zhan Kong's eyes widened.
Spit the person out?
This beast even ate people?!
Upon receiving Xiao Yu's order, Old Black's massive body reluctantly shifted.
Its massive maw, which had just swallowed a warrior-level demon, slowly opened once more.
This time, there was no terrifying suction; instead, it felt like rumination.
Under the astonished gazes of Zhan Kong, Xiao Yu, and everyone else who remained conscious, Lao Hei let out a chilling gurgling sound from his throat, and then suddenly vomited.
Pfft!
A living human figure was "spit out" from its body and crashed heavily onto the ground covered with rubble and decaying leaves!
"It's a person! It really ate people!"
The students, still in shock, screamed.
"Calm down! Stop looking and let's go." Fan Lijun and the other teachers shouted sternly, and then led the students away from Baicao Valley.
He was a man wearing tattered gray clothes stained with a sticky, foul-smelling liquid.
His eyes were closed, his face was ashen, his breath was weak, and his body was covered with corroded wounds.
Although it was in a sorry state, its gray robe was still clearly visible.
"The Black Vatican?!" Zhan Kong's pupils shrank, and he exclaimed in shock.
Tang Yue, who had been closely monitoring the situation, transformed into a blurry shadow the moment she saw the gray-robed figure, and drifted down from the valley at an astonishing speed.
Her expression was cold and icy. Without the slightest hesitation, she rushed to the side of the unconscious Black Vatican member.
Several giant shadow nails directly restrained the man, and even his mouth was sealed to prevent him from biting the poison and committing suicide.
Although this person is now powerless to resist.
How long has it been since the Black Vatican started its operations again?
And it seems they came specifically for these students undergoing training.
Tang Yue pondered.
wrong.
The training location is kept strictly confidential at the highest level.
Logically speaking, before the training began, no force or individual other than the military should have known the location of the training.
Xiao Yu had just helped capture a blue-clad deacon not long ago, so it couldn't possibly be him.
If we exclude Xiao Yu, it means there's a traitor within the military!
Tang Yue and Zhan Kong exchanged a glance, both realizing this possibility at the same time.
Just then, Old Hei twisted his body again and actually vomited out another person!
And this person was actually wearing military uniform!
"Chang Wei!?" Fan Lijun exclaimed in surprise.
"Chang Wei?" Zhan Kong looked over, and after seeing him clearly, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
Bai Yang's affair had already disappointed his superiors, and now another one has come along!
Zhan Kong stared intently at Chang Wei, who lay unconscious on the ground, his eyes filled with rage.
When I get back this time, I will definitely conduct a thorough investigation, and everyone must be subject to unconditional scrutiny!
"Tang Yue, have the Inquisition bring their men. Our military will fully cooperate," Zhan Kong said to Tang Yue, then turned to look at all his subordinates present: "Anyone who disobeys will be treated as if they were from the Black Vatican!"
"I understand." Tang Yue nodded, her heart also filled with indignation.
Damn Black Vatican!
This time, they actually turned their attention to this group of unarmed students!
Absolutely unforgivable!
"Chief Instructor Zhan Kong, this can't actually be entirely my fault," Xiao Yu said. "My summoned beast told me that it was your subordinate, along with that Black Vatican member, who released the illusion drug into my summoned beast."
"I understand." Zhan Kong said with a serious expression.
This man named Chang Wei is the only poison-type mage at Xuefeng Mountain Inn, and his specialty is hallucination.
It is precisely because this person is a poison-type that he was sent to guard Hundred Herbs Valley to prevent any inconspicuous poisonous plants in the valley from harming the students.
But who could have imagined it?
This guy is actually a lackey of the Black Vatican, just like Bai Yang!
A thorough investigation is necessary!
