Chapter 2557: Chapter 2558: Someone Can’t Sit Still Anymore
These people treating her like this will face retribution sooner or later; she won’t let a single one of them go.
Enduring the excruciating pain in her knees, she gritted her teeth and pried off the scale armor. Blood gushed out, and the pain brought tears to her eyes.
But she knew that at this time, no one would come to help her, and the only person she could rely on was herself.
So, she continued to endure, applied medicine to herself, and then sat down to rest, trying to recover her stamina as much as possible.
...
After a while, under the fierce attack from Sui Zimo and the others, the Shining Eye Beast gradually became overwhelmed and weakened.
Captain Liu looked at the Shining Eye Beast, which was no longer very aggressive, and genuinely wanted to step in and help—just to get something out of it. His heart was restless like it was being scratched by a cat.
He even secretly thought about why none of these people made any mistakes.
Even a small mistake that could put them in danger would give him a reason to rush over.
But unfortunately, those people gave him no such opportunity; even the three who played both sides didn’t make any mistakes, nor were they in any danger.
Moreover, there was Lin Caisang watching. Her spirit whip was not to be trifled with. As soon as someone was in danger, she could immediately intervene, adjust them to a better position, and continue to deal with the Shining Eye Beast.
At this point, everyone truly witnessed that this pregnant lady was not as weak as they had imagined.
She didn’t need anyone’s protection.
In the Vast Sea Forest, only she protected others; people protecting her was simply unnecessary.
And the reason those men protected her was completely out of compassion, not because they thought she was too weak and needed their protection.
Captain Liu and his team found no opportunity to take action, especially with Lin Caisang keeping an eye on them. They didn’t dare to make a move and could only watch others reap the rewards.
"Captain, shall we go?"
Someone in the team couldn’t sit still any longer and whispered in Captain Liu’s ear.
Hearing this, Captain Liu turned his head and gave him a fierce glare.
Go?
The word is easy to say but difficult to actually execute.
If there were more than one team present, they could all go together, but now, there’s only their team, and earlier they were afraid of the Shining Eye Beast and didn’t dare to make a move.
If they were to go now, wouldn’t they become a laughingstock?
Let’s not even talk about becoming a laughingstock; if word of this reached Commander Lin, what reputation would their team have left?
Bear in mind, their biggest goal in coming to the Vast Sea Forest was to stand out in the City Lord’s Mansion and gain the Lord’s favor.
Although the chances are slim, it’s still possible.
But if they ruined their reputation over a momentary dispute, they would truly have no chance.
"If you want to go, go yourself, don’t drag me down!"
He glanced sideways at Lin Caisang, who, although just standing there, was alert to everything around her.
In all honesty, he really didn’t want to provoke such a person right now.
"There will be plenty of opportunities to capture stronger demons in the future. Let’s let them handle this one themselves."
He took a deep breath, having no choice but to give up such good alchemy materials.
After this experience, he realized that Lin Caisang and her team’s strength was indeed formidable.
