Chapter 17 Shadow Realm
There is a trap ahead.
But Bai Yu didn't notice.
After coming to this world, his thinking still stayed in the original society, and he did not have such keen insight.
Living in a safe society has formed a habit. Of course, you will not think about what will be under your feet. Just like ordinary people walking on the street, they cannot prevent themselves from stepping on a bear trap. They will step on at most one thing under their feet.
A thumbtack, this is already bad luck.
Baiyu will pay a heavy price for walking without looking at the soles of his feet.
Danger lurks in the shadows - this sentence is written on the cover page of the textbook.
It’s not that he hasn’t seen it, it’s that he doesn’t care.
Bai Yu's steps have already been raised, and he is about to step on the shadow crack.
Is it possible that he realizes it?
He can't.
So can he avoid it?
The answer is...yes.
Because a shoulder hit his back hard, Bai Yu was knocked away more than three meters.
The boy weighed more than 60 kilograms and was nearly 1.8 meters tall, almost like an adult. However, the force coming from behind made him fly into the air.
Bang! Bai Yu didn't fall hard immediately. He rolled on the spot and landed smoothly. He propped himself up with one hand, with doubts in his eyes: "You..."
Before he could ask, "What are you doing?", he was showered with curses, and Tao Rusu shouted, "Look at your feet as you walk, do you want to die, idiot!"
Bai Yu didn't notice the threat under his feet, but Tao Rusu did. After seeing it, he sprinted a hundred meters to save him.
The fissure in the shadow is located three meters directly in front of Bai Yu's line of sight.
This time he lowered his head and saw it. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. His lack of common sense prevented him from telling what this thing was. It was like a bug posted on the ground. He could only guess from Tao Rusu's reaction.
This may be similar in nature to the previous shadow world, but the size of this crack is not very large, only less than half a meter.
Tao Rusu held her knees and panted. She was very tired from running all the way. Although the distance was not long, it consumed a lot of physical and mental energy.
Just as she bent down, the shadow crack that was originally only half a meter wide suddenly expanded.
A strange-looking, flexible, bone-spurred strip that was several meters long popped out of it.
He swept directly around and tied up Tao Rusu's calves with incomparable precision.
At the moment of contact, Bai Yu saw blood splattering and heard the sound of bones breaking.
The human body could not resist the force of breaking bones. She fell to the ground and was dragged into the cracks in the ground at an extremely fast speed.
All this happened so fast that Bai Yu only had time to take half a step forward... This sudden situation was completely beyond the scope of his imagination, just like a crocodile coming out after opening the manhole cover on the ground.
It’s incredible for everyone.
Tao Rusu's body was half submerged into the ground in the blink of an eye, but she did not ask Bai Yu for help or extend her hand.
The severe pain made her frown, and before her body was completely submerged in the shadow, she uttered one word.
"——Run!"
Shadows spread out in ripples.
The crack did not heal immediately, but Tao Rusu disappeared as if she had sunk into a pool.
Bai Yu's body was stiff, and his thinking was a little confused. The next moment he raised his left hand and gave himself a slap to regain his soul.
No matter what the situation is now, calm down...analyze the situation and make a judgment.
There are two choices.
One, leave and find someone to rescue; two, jump down and save yourself.
Option 1: It may be too late to call the teacher. How many seconds can Tao Rusu survive in the face of a monster that can easily break human bones? She is not an extraordinary person. With a broken leg, she cannot even escape or delay.
Option two requires sufficient combat power. No one knows what will happen next, or even what level of monster it is... If you jump, you will not be able to save yourself, and you may even die.
...Only when you are alive can you have hope.
...You have died once, do you want to die again?
Cowardly thinking runs rampant in the cage of reason.
Bai Yu fell into hesitation. He is an ordinary person and cannot get rid of this hesitation. This is natural. It is the instinct of creatures to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Human beings are self-interested creatures. Human nature cannot stand the test. He is neither a hero nor a strong man.
,What’s wrong with protecting yourself wisely?
Yes, ordinary people cannot jump without hesitation, even if it is the benefactor who saved them.
However, heroic spirits can.
【Projection activation】
...Old man, please help me.
The moment the heroic spirit's projection covered his body, the so-called confusion was dispelled. Ren Xia's tenacity of will and determination to save people even omitted the period of thinking. His instinct directly drove his body towards the shadow crack that had begun to shrink.
Jump down.
……
It hurts, it hurts so much.
Tao Rusu saw that her left leg had been broken and twisted, with several bloody holes on it, and dark-white bone spurs piercing the flesh.
This was the first time she had experienced this kind of pain, and the pain could not wake her up immediately.
The moment she fell into the shadow world, she was thrown out, her body hit the wall, she felt tinnitus and dizziness, and she suffered a concussion.
In the chaotic vision, she could barely make out the appearance of this scourge.
As a student with excellent academic performance, she had learned similar knowledge, so she recognized him at a glance.
This is a beast.
The size of the beast is similar to that of a bull, and its body is covered with bone spurs. It is one of the more common ancient disaster beasts.
It has a bad temper, is extremely aggressive, and eats carnivores.
What bad luck.
But what I encountered was a barge beast... Barge beasts usually do not appear in the shadow layer.
The shallowest layer in the shadow world is the shadow layer, which is closer to the real world, and the surrounding scenery completely reproduces reality one-to-one, just like the shadow of the real world.
There are disaster beasts and shadow species active in the shadow realm, but most of them are unqualified bastards... However, even some bastards still need extraordinary people to hunt them down.
Normally, extraordinary beings of the same level cannot defeat disaster beasts of the same level, and must be suppressed by level.

When Tao Rusu saw the beast, she realized that she was going to die.
Although the Pit Beast is only a first-level disaster beast, it is very aggressive and will not let go of its prey. If it catches it, it will be eaten by them.
Her legs were broken, and she didn't have time to escape... and she didn't have that much strength anymore. A fall almost made her lose her mobility and her consciousness became comatose... The human body is so fragile.
She could feel the beast's breath close to her, and its smelly breath came out of its open mouth.
Death is near.
Tao Rusu's expression looked very calm.
I don’t know if it was because of the bloody head and concussion, but she felt very calm and had no hysterical fear.
Although she is a little unwilling, she will not regret it. She has no regrets about saving people, even if she loses her life because of saving people...
She knew that she was not such a great person, and the reason why she rushed over to save people desperately was because she realized that she had to do this...
She cannot make the same mistake again.
A few days ago, she was in the corridor and saw the shadow world swallowing up the entire Grade 1 class.
As the first witness, she should inform others and immediately call everyone to leave the teaching building. The dangerous shadow world may expand at any time, and the entire school may not be able to survive.
But she did nothing. Instead, she was so frightened in the corridor that her legs went weak. Then she immediately ran out of the teaching building and ran to the playground alone.
When she came back to her senses, she realized how ugly she was.
Although it did not bring serious consequences, it still became a source of pain that tormented her for several days and made it impossible for her to sleep peacefully. It was an inner nightmare that she could not avoid.
So she knew that she would definitely rush over... She needed a chance so much, a chance to forgive herself, a chance to prove that she just made a mistake but could still make up for it.
However, she underestimated the variables in the shadow world.
The price is her life.
Tao Rusu's eyelids became heavier and heavier. The only thing she could do to comfort herself was... at least she didn't make the same mistake again, and at least she saved one person. This was not a meaningless sacrifice.
She thought to herself, and then she was about to close her eyes and face her end.
Bang!
Gunshot!
Sparks burst out, and bits of warm blood fell on her cheeks. One of the beast's eyes was shot through. It let out a painful roar and rolled on the spot. Its body was huddled up like a pangolin, leaning on its thick skin and
The bone spurs on the body serve as a defense against the incoming bullets.
Tao Rusu's blurred vision was fixed on a figure.
Wearing a dark suit, holding a gun in both hands, he fired while walking.
The footsteps beat the drums, and the gunshots matched the beat, like a metallic symphony whirling in the ears.
She didn't see who it was.
