Chapter 29 Only pain can defeat fear (seeking follow-up reading)

Qin Zhan made a suggestion to form a pioneer team consisting of several students from the top class.

The so-called vanguard squad is similar to scouts.

Because there are fewer people and they are all elites, their mobility is much stronger than that of a large force.

This is not only safer, but also provides a relatively safe route for large troops.

You can reach the safety barrier faster and survive better.

The proposal was quickly passed.

The Vanguard Team consists of eight people:
Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, He Yu, Wang Sanpang, Xu Zhaoting, Mu Bai, Zhou Min and the team leader Qin Zhan.

Walking out of the school gate, what comes into view is a deserted street, small stalls selling miscellaneous goods, and unattended shops.

When the military issued a city-wide notice, some residents desperately moved into the safety barrier, while others hid in their homes.

When the teachers and students of Tianlan Magic High School began to move towards the safety barrier, many nearby residents rushed over and joined this large group.

"The large group following behind us is growing in number."

Zhang Xiaohou jumped down from an old corridor and spoke to everyone with a serious expression.

“More people does not mean safety, but will make us the biggest target.”

Qin Zhan shook his head and said lightly.

"Well, I'll continue exploring."

Zhang Xiaohou nodded and climbed to a higher place again.

The safety barrier is separated from Tianlan High School by a main street, a pedestrian street and a residential area.

The main street was one kilometer long and was completely blocked at this time.

Not only cars can't pass through, even bicycles have difficulty passing through.

Traffic was paralyzed and everyone had no choice but to walk.

"There is a one-eyed demon wolf outside the small restaurant ahead. It is gnawing on a female corpse."

Zhang Xiaohou, who was exploring the way ahead, ran back with a pale face and spoke to everyone breathlessly.

The crowd continued to move forward, bypassing a bus that was blocking the middle of the road, and at a glance they saw the one-eyed demon wolf and the woman lying in a pool of blood.

"Why is the one-eyed demon wolf gone?"

Qin Zhan frowned slightly, his expression suddenly became serious, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.

Mo Fan, who had experience in hunting monsters, also showed a vigilant expression.

“It was just there.”

Just as Zhang Xiaohou was about to speak, a ferocious figure suddenly emerged from behind a bus next to him.

The scarlet single eye, sharp fangs, and slender and strong body, there is no doubt that it is the one-eyed demon wolf.

The bloody mouth was already opened, biting towards the unsuspecting Zhang Xiaohou!
This scene happened so suddenly that even Mo Fan didn't react.

Just when everyone thought that Zhang Xiaohou would die in the mouth of the one-eyed demon wolf, Qin Zhan took action before the one-eyed demon wolf could bite Zhang Xiaohou!

A huge dark claw slammed down on the one-eyed wolf's head, sending it flying.

"Boom~"

The one-eyed wolf fell to the ground and broke two trees before it stopped rolling.

And the moment Qin Zhan made his move, Mo Fan, who was beside Zhang Xiaohou, immediately pulled Zhang Xiaohou aside.

Although the one-eyed demon wolf was repelled by Qin Zhan's attack, it still rushed forward ferociously and brutally.

Because he acted hastily, Qin Zhan failed to kill the one-eyed demon wolf with one blow, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Seeing that the one-eyed demon wolf dared to rush towards him, he immediately became angry.

The pitch-black giant claw appeared out of thin air again, grabbed the one-eyed demon wolf in its hand, and then squeezed it hard!
boom!
With a muffled sound, the one-eyed demon wolf died instantly, and bright red blood flowed through the gaps between its giant claws.

"Sigh~"

When the people around saw this scene, they all gasped.

"Brother Zhan, thank you." Zhang Xiaohou, who survived the disaster, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Qin Zhan with tears of gratitude.

If Qin Zhan had not come to his rescue, he would have been killed by the demon wolf by now.

Qin Zhan's behavior was beyond everyone's expectations.

With a gloomy face, he walked step by step to Zhang Xiaohou, raised his palm and slapped him directly in the face.

Snapped!
A crisp slap resounded throughout the place.

"what--!"

Zhang Xiaohou screamed, covering half of his face, standing there in a daze, looking at Qin Zhan in disbelief.

"You really disappoint me."

Qin Zhan glanced at Zhang Xiaohou coldly and said something that was hard to fathom.

"You knew there were demons, but you didn't hold the star track in your hand in case of emergency."

"The demon was right behind you. After I repelled it, you stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do."

“If there was still a demon just now, if Mo Fan hadn’t pulled you away, you would be a corpse now!”

Looking at Zhang Xiaohou who still had a bewildered look on his face, Qin Zhan coldly scolded: "I slapped you to let you know that only pain can defeat fear. The stronger the pain, the weaker the fear in your heart."

After hearing Qin Zhan's words, everyone around him showed a look of enlightenment.

It turns out that Qin Zhan wanted to help Zhang Xiaohou overcome his fear of demons.

It’s just that Zhang Xiaohou is usually quite smart and clever, why is he so stupid today?
"It was my fault. I shouldn't have taken it lightly."

Zhang Xiaohou took a deep breath and spoke seriously to Qin Zhan.

This slap was very painful, and he now felt a burning pain on his face.

However, while feeling the pain, he also woke up.

He shouldn't be afraid of monsters like before, or even stand there stupidly.

"Let's go. There's still some distance ahead. We must hurry over there as soon as possible."

Qin Zhan turned around, took the first step, and ran away into the distance.

Zhou Min and others immediately followed Qin Zhan and caught up quickly.

Every second at this moment is particularly precious, and no one knows what kind of danger lies ahead.

The heavy rain stopped for a while, but fog still filled the city.

In the northwest of the security barrier, a team of mages in military uniforms were besieging several one-eyed demon wolves.

"Wind Disk Tornado!"

The air pressure suddenly dropped, and the surrounding debris began to spin inexplicably!

The rotation became more and more intense, and soon formed a huge tornado.

The car parked not far away has slowly left the ground, and the street lights have also been rising from the ground!

The three one-eyed demon wolves screamed in agony and were eventually torn into bloody pieces.

"Rest for ten minutes, then continue to encircle and suppress the demon wolves!"

A mid-level wind mage spoke up.

"Captain, how many demons are left in Bo City now?"

Another wizard asked.

"It's almost there. Currently there are only the southeast region and our northwest region left. The total number should not exceed thirty."

The captain also breathed a sigh of relief.

Just less than a hundred demons entered Bo City, which made them feel helpless.

If the thousands of demons outside break through the defense line, the only outcome for Bo City is destruction.
