Chapter 50 - 50: 50 1 Don’t Want to Die
Her eyes too were scarlet! They were filled with anger, resentment, and even hatred!
Seemingly pricked by the emotions brewing in her eyes, Shen Mo ts grip unconsciously loosened a bit.
With indignation, Bai Youwei shoved him away, then bent over, coughing violently-
In the distance, Zhang Hua was in a state of utter confusion, “Why are there tadpoles? Why… the frog was just about to be sated. Why did tadpoles appear at this time?!”
His body was soaked in the muddy water, struggling to climb onto the snail shell again and again, only to slide off repeatedly. Surrounded by seven or eight excited tadpoles wagging their tails and gnawing on him, they quickly devoured him!
Strictly speaking, tadpoles don’t have teeth.
The mouth of a tadpole has a pair of fleshy lips and a row of hornlike “teeth”. These teeth are soft, and shaped like the teeth on a comb, they seemingly lack threat. However, if magnified thousands or tens of thousands times, the suction and biting strength of their mouth would be astounding!
Everyone watched as Zhang Hua disappeared entirely before their eyes. Their earlier passive and comfortable mindset, as they waited inside the snail shells, vanished without a trace!
Tan Xiao, holding onto Chang Weicai, lay on the snail shell, fiercely kicking away the tadpoles that were leaping upwards with his feet, sending them tumbling back into the mud!
The tadpoles were stubborn, persistently surging upwards!
The snail wobbled precariously, like a tiny boat in the sea, likely to capsize any second.
Big Brother Hui and Monkey were also in a panic, their hands clenching each other’s forearms as they hung on each side of the snail to prevent being shoved off by the tadpoles.
Shen Mo’s expression was dark as he forcefully yanked Bai Youwei up. Holding back his anger again, he asked her with a suppressed voice, “You knew all along, why didn’t you tell?!”
Bai Youwei was limp in his hands like a rag-doll.
She didn’t speak, her gloomy eyes were glued to Big Brother Hui and Monkey.
“Bai Youwei!” Shen Mo’s suppressed anger flared up again. He grabbed her by the collar, yanked her close, “Why didn’t you divulge the method for passing the level?!”
Chang Weicai slipped down multiple times, only to be hoisted up by Tan Xiao each time.
Big Brother Hui and Monkey yelled and cursed amid the grips of struggle.
Yet, Bai Youwei seemed unaffected by it all. Those clear, lucid brown eyes of hers were as cold as ice.
“Why would I tell?” she sneered, “To save them? Are they even worth it?”
Shen MO was taken aback.
Bai Youwei fixed her gaze on him, “What have those people done when I was in danger last night, other than pretending to sleep? Trash like them deserves to be eradicated by the game. If they haven’t been completely wiped out, of course, I won’t say.”
“Is that how you feel?” Shen MO felt his heart jolt, “Aren’t you afraid of dying?”
The smirk at the corner of Bai Youwei’s mouth grew more wanton, her gaze filled with malice, “If I die, none of you will survive!”
Shen MO stared at her blankly, slackening his grip. She slipped downwards, but at the instant before she was grasped by the tadpoles, Shen MO pulled her back up again.
For a moment, he was at a loss for how to handle her.
Behind them, Big Brother Hui suddenly roared, “Monkey!”
Shen MO looked round to see Big Brother Hui, drowning in the mud, instantly swarmed by a group of tadpoles. No matter how hard he tried, he could not stand up. He could only try his best to raise his arms high! Raise his arms high!…
Monkey was still clutching the snail shell tightly with both hands, not extending a hand to pull him out.
“Monkey!…Monkey!…”
The man in the mud was screaming shrilly.
It was as if Monkey didn’t hear a thing, his blood-shot eyes were focused on
Bai Youwei!
The cry for help grew weaker.
Then it vanished.
The commotion made by the tadpoles gradually settled, their corpulent bodies rolling over and sinking into the mud.
Everyone was watching Monkey.
The unremarkable skinny young man’s veins were bulging, his eyes bloodshot; his body was quivering from the suppressed emotions.
He had just witnessed his comrade’s death.
Just when everyone thought he would charge at Bai Youwei in a fit of rage, he broke into a smile!
Tears rolled down his cheeks too, his smile looked extremely awkward.
“… can you tell us now?” Monkey, with a crazed look in his eyes, fixed his gaze on Bai Youwei,”The person who came up with the idea was Cixie, and Big Brother Hui executed it, and all I did was hold the mobile phone for recording…l never touched you…Can you tell us now? The methods for passing the level, I don’t want to die…l don’t want to die….”
