Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared -
Chapter 340 Exceptional Situations
Chapter 340: 340 Exceptional Situations
Though humans were numerous and occasionally staged collective charges, they seemed infinitely small in front of the giant snow monsters.
Under the leadership of Luo Jingrong, some twenty people attacked a snow monster, only to be sent flying by its fists or stomped flat by its feet. Sometimes, the snow monster would grab a person to use as a weapon, eliciting screams of terror from the crowd.
In the end, at the cost of half their number dead or injured, they managed to pin down the snow monster and finish it off with whatever weapons they had on hand.
Barely recovering from killing the snow monster, Luo Jingrong was startled when a person next to him was suddenly pulled into the snow. He ran without looking back.
Luo Jingrong had not gotten far when he was targeted by another snow monster. The sight of it sent him into such terror that he shouted, "Save me, someone save me."
A gunshot rang out, and Su Hui’s bullet found its mark in the snow monster’s head. The snow monster fell dead to the snow-covered ground.
"Thank God for you guys," said Luo Jingrong, who ran to Gu Fan, feeling a sense of safety at finding a haven from the storm. However, he barely had a moment to breath when he felt a tug at his foot. Realising what was happening, he quickly grabbed Xu Haowen standing beside him.
The combined weight of the two prevented Luo Jingrong from being pulled under the snow, buying time for Su Hui to rescue them. She fired a shot into the snow, solving the problem with a bang.
"Thank you, you guys have saved me twice," Luo Jingrong, utterly exhausted, nearly collapsed to the ground.
"No, including the times before, we’ve actually saved you three times," Gu Fan responded, and then seriously stated, "If you’re still hoping for us to save you, tell us what kind of plan Lin Xi has, and what her unspeakable goals are."
Hearing this, Luo Jingrong was dumbfounded. And Lin Xi, standing by his side, became livid. "What do you mean by that, Gu Fan? Are you acting like I don’t exist?"
Su Hui quickly interjected, "Enough, let’s not argue anymore. Let’s focus on our mission, and get rid of all the trouble here." With that, she led the way with her shotgun.
Seeing Su Hui’s valiant and heroic demeanor, everyone was full of admiration. Both Ning Qi and old man Tian also raised their guns, ready to forge ahead.
"Everyone follow, go in pairs and watch your steps. I have a feeling our counterattack is about to begin," Gu Fan finished, smirking as he took Leng Le’s hand and followed the group.
Although it was a bit strange, Lu Yi and Jie also held hands.
Given their previous experience, Luo Jingrong chose to huddle with Xu Haowen again to guard against being suddenly grabbed by something and pulled into the snow. Together they were heavy enough to resist any snow monster hiding underneath.
Su Hui shot as she walked, her aim true. After her last bullet was spent just as yet another snow monster fell, even old man Tian and Ning Qi were out of ammo. They had truly ran out of bullets.
"There’s no other way, let’s go in and fight," said Su Hui bravely, brandishing her baton and charging in, impressive with her valiant boldness.
A snow monster was poised to attack Du Jun, Qin Jia, and Du Changhui. One of its kicks could pulverise any of them, but a baton was thrown and hit it squarely on the head.
The snow monster was in pain and looked at the charging Su Hui. In its eyes, she seemed insignificant and frail, challenging it was like an insult.
The snow monster roared and leapt towards Su Hui, seeming as if it would bite her to death.
"Alright, bring it on," Su Hui was fearless. She pulled out another baton and gauging the trajectory of the snow monster’s bite, shoved it into the snow monster’s mouth.
Now the snow monster, with the baton wedged in its mouth, was extremely uncomfortable, unable to even roar. It bounced around, looking rather pathetic.
Even so, such a snow monster was still terrifying and everyone dare not approach.
Others might not dare, but Su Hui did. She drew her dagger and charged towards it with gusto, stunning everyone.
"No way, that’s too dangerous," Gu Fan wanted to dissuade her but it was too late. Su Hui was almost at the frenzied snow monster, which was raring to fight.
The snow monster attempted to send Su Hui flying with a punch, but she dodged by going to the ground, timing a slide tackle to pass beneath the snow monster and slashing its leg in the process.
Everyone watched as Su Hui nimbly dodged left and right, repeatedly slashing at the snow monster and injuring it until it finally went down.
Cheers were about to erupt for Su Hui – her skills were simply too formidable. Gu Fan couldn’t help but think that he would probably never outdo her in his lifetime.
In the meantime, Hai had also led his subordinates and successfully dispatched two snow monsters. But the victories had come at a heavy cost, with many lives lost and Hai himself was dripping in blood, utterly exhausted.
The boss, leveraging his power of immortality, had also finally vanquished the strongest snow monster after a bitter struggle.
At this point, most of the attacking snow monsters had been wiped out, and even the smaller snow monsters hiding under the snow had been dug out and disposed of mercilessly.
After this fierce battle, over two-thirds of the group was lost, yet Lin Xi’s group and the boss’s group were once again at odds with each other, seemingly ready to come to blows anytime.
Now Leng Le was safe and the boss no longer had a hostage, Gu Fan was ready for payback.
Xu Haowen was exasperated and grumbled, "Are you serious? Are we going to fight again, when will this end?"
"We don’t have a choice, if they insist on fighting, we can’t just hope for peace," Gu Fan remarked. But he was cut off by the boss’s menacing glare. It seemed like the boss had set his sights on Gu Fan.
At that moment, Lu Yi looked up at Yuxueyun Mountain, whose peak was covered in snow, and asked, "Old man Tian, how often do avalanches occur here?"
"About once a month," old man Tian replied. Lu Yi then asked, "When was the last avalanche?"
"About a month ago, I think? Why are you asking?" old man Tian wondered. Then he saw Lu Yi point at the peak, where some snow seemed to be rolling down and looked harmless.
In an instance, old man Tian’s face paled. He yelled, "Run, there’s an avalanche coming."
