Chapter 5: Life and Death Chase

Driver Lao Liu floated in the air, seeing the dog-like monster for the first time.

The dog had four scarlet eyes, its mouth and teeth stained with human flesh and blood, staring intently at Driver Lao Liu.

Driver Lao Liu was terrified.

He subconsciously yelled “Run!” at the passengers still in the car below him.

Then, without a moment's hesitation, he turned and floated in the opposite direction.

In such a critical situation, he felt he had done his utmost.

He didn't dare to look back for a second, only focusing on running forward using Floating.

However, the speed of Floating was quite ordinary; he felt he wasn't much faster than a normal adult running.

The only advantage was that he could move in a straight line in the air, unaffected by obstacles.

Damn it!

If not for those rear-ended cars, he could have driven the bus at full speed to escape this cursed place.

At his current speed, he would eventually be caught by that dog-like monster.

But Driver Lao Liu knew he didn't need to outrun the monster; he just needed to outrun everyone else.

And indeed, that was the case.

The massacre inside the tunnel had already begun.

It wasn't until Driver Lao Liu had floated forward for at least five or six seconds that the other passengers in the car gradually reacted.

Screams continued to come from behind him.

It was clear that this time, the screams were not just from one person.

Lin Ye looked through the rear window of the car and saw a leg thrown into the air.

Yes, it was a severed leg!

Immediately after, a large black dog, as tall as a person, leaped up, jumping onto the roof of a car and catching the severed leg in one bite.

Blood, fangs, and faint chewing sounds...

Lin Ye's brain felt like it had turned into a mess.

He didn't know how to explain everything in front of him, so he was momentarily stunned.

Wang Bin also saw this scene, but he reacted much faster.

He immediately rushed to the bus door, attempting to get off.

Only then did he realize that Driver Lao Liu had run too fast, and the bus door hadn't opened at all.

“Damn it!”

Wang Bin cursed loudly, not having time to continue trying his ability; the previous scene just made him want to escape from here first.

He turned to look at the door next to the driver's seat.

However, due to incidents of passengers snatching the steering wheel in recent years, transparent partitions had long been installed around the driver's seat.

“Get out through the window! Hurry!”

The male in the couple shouted while helping his girlfriend, trying to get her to squeeze out of the window first.

Lin Ye looked at the unconscious Chen Bugu and the Aunt at the front of the bus who was paralyzed with fear, and for a moment, he was in a dilemma.

The car windows were too narrow; squeezing out one by one would take too much time, and not everyone could get out.

As a teacher, his profession and conscience wouldn't allow him to flee first.

“Safety hammer! Get the safety hammer!”

After forcing himself to calm down, Lin Ye immediately saw the red safety hammer attached to the car window.

He took two quick steps, took down the safety hammer, and then powerfully struck the corner of the window twice in a row.

Cracks spread, and Wang Bin immediately followed with a kick to the shattered glass.

Due to the excessive force, Wang Bin couldn't stop himself and almost fell out entirely; fortunately, Lin Ye pulled him back in time.

Immediately after, everyone escaped through the shattered car window, leaving only Lin Ye and Chen Bugu.

At this moment, Wang Bin and the others had already run forward in a panic.

Lin Ye looked back from outside the window and was so scared that his legs almost gave out.

Seven or eight cars behind him, two large black dogs were fiercely tearing at the car bodies.

Under their exaggerated biting force, the car bodies had already deformed.

The people in the cars behind had already run forward; Lin Ye knew that if he didn't leave soon, he would be the next to die.

Oh, and that unlucky student.

Thinking of this, Lin Ye no longer hesitated; a green light flashed in his eyes, and a dark brown six-pointed star magic array appeared on the ground next to the bus.

The magic array connected to the void; Lin Ye looked closely but could only see a patch of darkness.

Immediately after, a creature leaped out from that darkness.

It was a Rock Sheep standing nearly two meters tall, with a single horn on its white sheep's head, four snow-white hooves on the ground, and its entire body was rock-like brownish-gray.

After jumping out of the magic array, it appeared somewhat anxious, constantly pacing in place.

Information about this summoned beast also suddenly appeared in Lin Ye's mind.

Unicorn Rock Sheep: Black Iron Grade Low-Rank Sheep Family monster. A Sheep Family monster that grows on thousand-layer rock walls, gentle in nature, good at jumping and charging. Racial skill is Horn Strike.

Horn Strike: A Unicorn Rock Sheep in a full-speed running state can use the single horn on its head to launch a Horn Strike, whose power can shatter rocks.

Summoning time remaining: 4 minutes 59 seconds.

It worked!?

The successful activation of the Sheep Attribute ability gave Lin Ye a glimmer of hope for escape.

He quickly dragged Chen Bugu to the window, threw him onto the back of the Unicorn Rock Sheep, and then he himself jumped up.

At this moment, Lin Ye could already hear the dog-like monster behind him jumping onto the roof of another car.

That sound was definitely no more than 50 meters away from him.

Lin Ye quickly held down Chen Bugu, then wrapped his other arm tightly around the Unicorn Rock Sheep's neck.

He ordered the Unicorn Rock Sheep to escape quickly in his mind!

The anxious Unicorn Rock Sheep seemed to have been waiting for a long time; upon receiving the command, it immediately bolted forward like a sports car.

The instantaneous acceleration made Lin Ye's glasses fall to the ground, but he had no time to pick them up; the Unicorn Rock Sheep was running at full speed, and in the next second, it had already moved five to six meters from its original position.

At this moment, Lin Ye understood why the Unicorn Rock Sheep was inexplicably anxious.

It was a kind of fear.

Deep fear of the predator behind it.

The moment the Unicorn Rock Sheep started running, a Scarlet Hound not far behind raised its head.

Its four scarlet eyes, even the pupils, were blood-red; its nose twitched, it stopped tearing at the car in front of it, turned around, and immediately ran rapidly forward.

For this “hound,” a more delicious “prey” had appeared.

...

Lin Ye, holding Chen Bugu, sat on the back of the full-speed Unicorn Rock Sheep and quickly overtook many people.

Lin Ye even vaguely saw the Aunt who had been paralyzed at the front of the car also rapidly fleeing with the crowd.

The Aunt ran at the front of the crowd; her speed was very fast, no less than that of a professional athlete, and not much slower than the Unicorn Rock Sheep.

Lin Ye immediately understood that her ability was probably related to speed.

The Aunt also saw Lin Ye and subconsciously ran quickly towards him.

In the Aunt's eyes, this fellow passenger riding a large sheep clearly gave her more a sense of security.

Just as Lin Ye was about to reach out to see if he could pull the Aunt up, in the next second, a fire-basin-sized fireball came rapidly from behind him.

Lin Ye subconsciously pulled his hand back.

The fireball didn't hit him, but it completely struck the Aunt, who had no time to turn.

Right before Lin Ye's eyes, she was struck and sent flying.

The Unicorn Rock Sheep continued to rush forward without stopping for a moment.

Lin Ye watched the Aunt fall to the ground behind him, unable to even feel sad.

Because he had already seen that not far behind, the dog-like monster had once again opened its mouth.

A red-glowing fireball was slowly forming in front of its huge maw.

At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Lin Ye's mind.

“It's over, he's coming for me!”

As he thought this, Lin Ye seemed to smell his hair burning, and the red light once again illuminated the side of his face.

“Bang!”

The giant fireball smashed into a car.

At the last moment, the Unicorn Rock Sheep carried Lin Ye and turned into a Horizontal Cave.

The fireball brushed past Lin Ye's head, making him break out in a cold sweat.

The Unicorn Rock Sheep seemed to have lost control, not turning out of the Horizontal Cave, but continuing to flee forward, rushing into the depths of a dead-end Horizontal Cave.

However, just as Lin Ye was in despair, he seemed to hear a familiar voice.

“Damn it!”

“How did you get in here?!”
