Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 839 Carrion Fish

Xu Han was unaware that he had been being watched for a long time. At this moment, he was silently pulling the lotus leaf forward, not daring to look back at the strange fish emerging from the boiling water.

What a joke... Why did he even turn around to look at those things? Wasn't he scared enough already?

Knowing full well that he wasn't very brave, Xu Han didn't say a word, just kept his head down and pursed his lips, afraid that he might accidentally let the strange fish hear him.

Anjie and Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Yi smiled as he looked at Xu Han ahead, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

Anjie, who accidentally caught a glimpse of Chen Yi's eyes while turning her head: "..."

Anjie found Chen Yi's gaze, which seemed to suggest he was watching his son get married and settle down, rather strange—Xu Han was only around twenty years old, far from being old enough to get married.

Chen Yi had no idea what An Jie was thinking. After feeling relieved, he slowly turned around and looked behind him.

The monsters lured out by the song quickly appeared in a group, busily swimming around in the pond, making continuous splashing sounds, as if searching for the source of the noise.

Chen Yi frowned.

Why did those croaking toads suddenly become quiet?

Do they know about these strange fish?

"There they are! Hurry and catch up! Almost there! We're almost catching up with them!!!"

The sounds of toads broke the silence of the water, accompanied by the constant jumping of the toads. Finally, the strange fish that had been wandering restlessly in place found their "prey".

wow-

Under the moonlight, the densely packed monsters surged wildly towards the pursuing toads. All the players heard was a soft "plop"—and the next second, a toad's scream echoed throughout the entire pond.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh—there are fish here! There are carrion fish here! Aaaaaahh ...

"What?! Why are there piranhas?! How could there be carrion fish?!"

"We're doomed! We can't catch them!!! Damn it!!! Damn fish—get out of here...get away from me, don't come any closer—"

"..."

Carrion-eating fish?

These three unfamiliar names reached the ears of everyone present. Yu Shijiu raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at those strange fish from afar—oh no, they should be called rotten fish.

He watched from afar as the toads, entangled with the carrion fish, launched a frenzied attack, and his eyes crinkled with pleasure.

The smell of blood in the air grew stronger.

The evening breeze carried the smell of blood splattered from the two monstrous species' battle and the foul, rotting slime all the way over, making everyone present feel like sneezing.

But no one dared to sneeze.

Those carrion-eating fish eat human flesh.

The horrific scene of Qi Wei's death was still vivid in Yang Hua's mind. As the last person lying on the lotus leaf, he was disgusted by the rotten and sticky stench in the air but dared not turn his head.

If you want to live a long life, you can't be too curious.

Now that we can leave this place and enter the next plot point, I shouldn't think too much about it; getting out of here as soon as possible is the most important thing.

After forcibly brainwashing himself, Yang Hua took a deep breath—and was so disgusted by the thick, fishy smell that he almost vomited.

She quickly covered her mouth, lowered her head, and lay motionless on the lotus leaf, waiting for the fish to push the leaf to the shore.

Because she kept her head down, Yang Hua missed Fang Youhua's expression at that moment.

Fang Youhua didn't seem disgusted at all. She knelt quietly on the lotus leaf, which was being slowly pushed towards the shore by the grass carp. Fang Youhua straightened her back and looked into the distance at the two bizarre scenes of fighting.

Carrion fish and toads seem to be equally aggressive—no.

Fang Youhua lowered her eyelids slightly as she watched the toad being bitten off by the carrion fish, its flesh, bumps, and even its tongue. A strange, twisted pleasure rose in her heart.

This moment of pleasure left Fang Youhua frozen in place.

She clenched her fists in frustration, but couldn't shake off the strange "pleasure" rising in her heart.

What am I so happy about?

What's so great about a toad being torn apart by a carrion-eating fish?

Is he really that happy just because he's getting away from this pond?

Fang Youhua wasn't stupid; she knew, of course, that something was wrong with her current state.

No, it should be said that her mental state has not been normal since she entered this guild competition.

Whether it's the inexplicable aversion and fondness for Thumbelina... or the disgust for these toads—these emotions shouldn't be so obvious in me.

Why on earth?

Fang Youhua heard the screams of the toads and the sounds of carrion fish tearing at flesh. She bit her tongue hard and uneasily.

The moment the taste of blood exploded in her mouth, Fang Youhua's chaotic and distorted thoughts slowly returned to normal.

She was in so much pain that her face turned pale, and even her eyes were red.

The pain of biting her tongue briefly overwhelmed the uncontrollable emotions spreading through Fang Youhua's mind. She turned her head away, no longer looking at the bizarre scene of people killing each other.

Fang Youhua attributed all her discomfort to not getting enough rest.

It must be.

Fang Youhua thought—because she hadn't rested well, because she was always thinking about how to win, her brain started to slack off, and the consequence of this slackness was that she began to uncontrollably recall those painful and disgusting memories from the past.

It's because I didn't get enough rest.

Fang Youhua forced herself not to continue recalling the messy things from the past. She began to breathe heavily and silently, trying to completely escape the chaotic and distorted thoughts in her mind.

Don't think about it... don't think about it... just don't think about it.

From the lotus leaves at the very front came the rustling sound of people crawling.

Fang Youhua looked up and, by the moonlight, saw Yu Shijiu and the others jumping ashore one after another.

Arrived.

Fang Youhua stiffly lifted her foot and walked forward. The grass carp that was pushing her along the edge of the lotus leaf seemed to be constantly hitting the lotus leaf.

Fang Youhua paused in her steps.

Yang Hua didn't notice Fang Youhua's pause. She had no intention of staying in this treacherous pond. She quickly passed Fang Youhua and ran towards the shore not far away.

Liu Zhong and Hao Ge followed along. Fang Youhua wondered if it was just her imagination, but when they passed by her, she thought she smelled a strange, fishy odor.

Is the smell of fighting from over there carried over by the wind?

Fang Youhua didn't pay much attention; her attention was drawn to the grass carp that kept bumping against the edge of the lotus leaf at her feet.

This grass carp, which worked tirelessly and silently pushing the lotus leaves, had a pair of very beautiful and clear black eyes.

At this moment, it raised its head, its dark eyes staring at Fang Youhua.

Fang Youhua didn't know why she lowered her head and stared at it. Slowly, a chill crept into her heart like vines.
