Chapter 917: The Dentist Who Got Scared Silly

The woods were deathly silent.

The intense smell of blood filled the air, from both lions and humans.

Ved's Adam's apple moved visibly, his lips turned pale and chapped from the rapid loss of blood.

Muddy beads of sweat trickled from his forehead, moistening the corners of his eyes.

Sour and throbbing with pain.

But such discomfort would be negligible to any qualified soldier; what Ved feared more was the current stalemate.

He aimed his gun at the trees, not daring to move Short Spear from his leg.

With only his left hand functioning, if he reached to pull out or break Short Spear, Bi Fang would be unrestrained and could take the opportunity to move in his direction, or even launch another attack.

In the first attack, Ved had lost his right shoulder and arm; the second cost him his left thigh and mobility.

What would happen in the third attack?

But if he did not pull it out, he'd be pinned to this tree forever, facing the same inevitable end.
