“Gah! Gah!”

“Gah!”

“Gah! Gaah!”

The continuous calls seemed to be responding to each other, echoing back and forth.

The design of the gymnasium had a bit of an echoing effect. With the overlapping sounds, it became difficult to determine the direction and the number of the sources.

Wei Fuyuan felt his hair stand on end and took a step back, standing back to back with Bei Quan.

Soon, more dark figures emerged from the various crevices in the ruins: all of them resembled strange lizards with wings.

“Gah! Gah!”

The rough and harsh voices continued.

Bei Quan counted, including the first one he injured, there were currently four of these winged lizard creatures in their line of sight.

“Very well…” Bei Quan smiled and whispered, “Excluding the one who fainted, we have four people, just enough for each of us to take one.”

Wei Fuyuan stood very close to Bei Quan, back to back, and naturally heard it.

“It’s not the time for jokes!”

Wei Fuyuan had to admit that he was nervous and unsure.

He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to protect Bei Quan properly.

“Do you have any ideas?”

Bei Quan shook his head.

“If we were outside, I could still think of a way.”

He replied softly.

“Unfortunately, here, we can only fight hard.”

Just as Bei Quan finished speaking, those four winged lizards, resembling the Feathered Serpent God, seemed to reach some kind of consensus.

They flapped their wings together and flew into the sky, rushing towards the four of them.

“Get out of the way!”

Bei Quan shouted to Luo Yin, “Protect your sister!”

The first winged lizard had already pounced in front of Bei Quan and Wei Fuyuan.

Wei Fuyuan reacted quickly.

He took a step and stood in front of Bei Quan, pulling out the unremarkable rolling pin from his waist and gripping it in his hand.

Golden light overflowed from his palm as the power of merit quickly enveloped the entire rolling pin.

At the same time, the large lizard opened its blood-filled mouth and lunged towards him.

“Haa!”

Wei Fuyuan swung the rolling pin and forcefully hit the monster’s nose.

Thud!

“Gah!”

The dull sound of a heavy object making contact with flesh and the miserable scream of the winged lizard sounded together.

The monster was in pain, thrashing and twisting its head. It suddenly extended its robust front claws, which were covered in hooked-shaped nails, reaching towards Wei Fuyuan.

Wei Fuyuan twisted his body, grabbed Bei Quan’s waist with one hand, drew a circle with one foot, and swiftly and agilely avoided this second attack with his beloved partner, creating some distance between them and the monster.

At that moment, the second and third lizard monsters arrived.

These Feathered Serpent Gods that came out of Ran Qu’s mind seemed to have some level of artificial intelligence and understood the concept of teamwork.

These monsters formed a T-shape, surrounding the two of them, making it difficult for them to escape.

“Gah!”

“Gah ah ah!”

It seemed like they were having a conversation with each other, and then they let out a few more calls.

“You take one, I’ll take two.”

Bei Quan pulled Wei Fuyuan’s hand off his waist and said, “Let’s finish this quickly, okay?”

“Sure!”

Wei Fuyuan responded decisively, “But be careful yourself!”

After saying that, he held a rolling pin in his hand and rushed towards the lizard that he had just hit on the nose.

Meanwhile, Bei Quan took out a pre-written talisman from his pocket and held it between his fingers.

Fortunately, these Feathered Serpent Gods were designed as physical attackers, and they didn’t breathe fire, spit acid, or summon tornadoes.

However, they did have tough skin and high defense. Even with only their mouths, teeth, claws, and tails as weapons, a careless bite or a scratch could result in the loss of a significant amount of blood.

In the past, even Wei Fuyuan, who was already an exceptional fighter among ordinary people, would have found it nearly impossible to face such a monster barehanded.

However, since entering the Pool of All Beings and seeing his past life, young Master Wei felt that he had become different from before.

Not only did he gain the memories of another lifetime, but he also gained the combat experience of that lifetime.

Additionally, it was unclear whether it was an increase in experience points or a sudden awakening, but Wei Fuyuan inexplicably felt that his control over his merit power had become much more proficient.

Previously, his power was inconsistent, but now he could effortlessly manipulate it. He focused his mind, ducked to avoid the lizard’s tail strike, and could easily take advantage of the moment when the monster turned its head and opened its mouth.

Seizing the opportunity, he covered his entire arm with the golden light of merit power, then extended his arm and directly thrust it forward.

This unexpected move was too quick, even the lizard was momentarily stunned.

But soon enough, it realized what Wei Fuyuan had done. Because Wei Fuyuan shoved the thick rolling pin into its throat.

“Gah! Gaah!”

The Feathered Serpent God couldn’t care less about Wei Fuyuan and immediately flapped its wings, flying away.

The rolling pin was wedged diagonally in its soft throat, unable to move up or down, preventing it from even closing its mouth.

This sensation was more uncomfortable than swallowing a bone, driving the lizard crazy.

“Gah!! Gah!”

It screamed and fluttered wildly in the air, flying in all directions and postures, just to spit out the object lodged in its throat. It completely disregarded the humans on the ground. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙤𝒓𝙜

Wei Fuyuan wanted to help Bei Quan, but then he heard the panicked and pained screams of the Luo siblings.

He followed the sound and saw the girl being pinned down by the fourth-winged lizard, screaming in agony.

Her brother had rushed over to save her but was swatted away by the monster’s claw, crashing into the wall with a loud “thud” and struggling to get up.

“Save them!” Bei Quan, facing two opponents alone, managed to shout at Wei Fuyuan.

“I’ll go!”

Wei Fuyuan was both angry and anxious.

His only weapon, the rolling pin, was still stuck in the throat of the previous creature. He might have to fight the lizard barehanded!

————————

On the other side, Bei Quan threw out four talismans.

They were centered around Bei Quan: standing in the southeast, northwest, and four corners, forming four pillars of light.

The two winged lizards desperately flapped around him, trying to attack their prey.

However, no matter how they scratched, gnawed, and bit, they couldn’t penetrate the protective barrier formed by the four talismans.

Bei Quan then made a cut on his fingertip and quickly drew something within them.

Very quickly, the two lizards realized that their random collisions were just a waste of energy, so they cleverly turned to scratch at the talismans in the corners.

“Not bad, pretty smart.”

Bei Quan praised softly.

After all, these defensive talismans were just half-finished ones hastily written on gauze, their effectiveness was limited and couldn’t be relied upon for too long.

He sped up his drawing speed for the talismans.

At this moment, Wei Fuyuan had already arrived by the girl’s side.

He saw that Luo Lan had been bitten on the shoulder by the fourth giant lizard, seemingly in so much pain that she couldn’t even make a sound.

However, her one remaining hand was still pressed against the lizard’s body, occasionally emitting a small spark, similar to a low-quality lighter with insufficient fuel.

This little flame certainly couldn’t do anything to the thick-skinned giant lizard.

The monster didn’t even bother to pay attention, it just tightly bit onto Luo Lan’s shoulder, sucking the fresh blood flowing from the wound.

——If it doesn’t let go soon, this girl would definitely be in danger!

Just as Wei Fuyuan was about to rush forward, he keenly noticed a military knife on the ground.

He recognized that knife. It was the one he found in the supply pack earlier, which Luo Yun had taken. It seemed that Luo Yun had rushed forward with the knife to save his sister, but had been swatted away by the monster, causing the knife to fall to the ground.

Without hesitation, Wei Fuyuan picked up the military knife, and a surge of righteous power enveloped the blade.

“Charge!!”

With a loud shout, he leaped high into the air, using his weight and the momentum of his descent as a boost, and swung his arm down with the knife.

“Poof!”

The blade pierced through the thick scales of the giant lizard, entering its body.

Unfortunately, the military knife wasn’t long enough to hit its vital points.

But this strike was enough to make the lizard feel pain. It released its grip on Luo Lan’s shoulder and retaliated with a tail swipe.

Wei Fuyuan didn’t have time to draw his knife, so he quickly dodged, but he was still struck on the calf by a powerful tail. He stumbled forward a few steps, barely managing to steady himself. Meanwhile, the lizard was lunging towards him.

“Holy crap!”

Wei Fuyuan turned his head and saw a wide-open bloodthirsty mouth.

This time, he didn’t have a rolling pin to block it.

He could only cover his arms with the power of merit, bite the bullet, and use his arms to block the sharp fangs.

At the other end, where Bei Quan was, the two giant lizards have scratched and damaged three out of the four talismans, and the protective formation had been breached.

As the red light faded, the lizards let out victorious roars, flapping their wings and pouncing directly toward their prey within the formation.

Bei Quan’s spell also connected to the last stroke at this time.

The red light flourished.

With a loud “bang”, four shimmering spheres of crimson fire burst out from the formation, resembling four spherical bolts of lightning, shooting toward the sky.

“Traverse the Nine Heavens, The Heavenly Thunder shall descend– Urgently, hear my command!”

The four light spheres flew toward the four lizards at the talisman’s command, piercing through their wide-open throats and reaching deep into their bellies.

“Boom!”

Four muffled low roars resonated, with no more than a one-second gap between each thunderous sound.

Apart from Bei Quan, no one knew what those four crimson spheres had done inside the stomach’s of the giant lizards.

Anyway, after the noise, all four monsters turned on their stomachs and fell to the ground twitching. Although they were not dead, they could no longer move.

Wei Fuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Go check on Luo Lan’s injuries!”

Bei Quan was far away, so he called out loudly.

Wei Fuyuan hurriedly ran to the girl’s side and turned over her bloody body.

“Ah Lan! Ah Lan!”

At this moment, Luo Yun also crawled up from the ground, limping towards his sister, his face covered in bloodstains and tears.
