Predator Trials (9)

Three individuals burst into the cave; they were giants that stood about seven meters tall.

With droplets of sweat covering her face, Xiao Ning turned to face her companions.

What terrible luck she has; despite their long run to safety, they ended up hiding in the enemy's camp.

{The Whaleion giant's structure is similar to but not the same as theirs.}

Shu Wei's assessment caused Xiao Ning to frown.

{Why aren't they attacking, Sisters?} Noah cried out in a terrified voice.

The giants appeared to be conversing as they made a variety of odd noises.

Since the giants were an advanced race, communication wasn't surprising, so why would they talk about them? Didn't it involve killing the intruders right away?

They were waiting for someone to pass judgement thought Xiao Ning, as she quickly grabbed up her knife from the ground. 

There is always a judge available if there is a dispute!

{Why don't we display our hands like in those Jurassic Park movies, Even dinosaurs pay attention to the palm!} Noah suggested.

Xiao Ning shook her head subtly: { No. Be prepared to flee; they are waiting for someone.}

{Get ready, it's coming, we need to escape now. } Shu Wei abruptly commanded.

Shu Wei sensed something was coming, which is why she stated it. She was an exceptionally sensitive doctor. 

Xiao Ning could only hone her knife in silence, muttering: { There are no trees here to give us the height advantage.}

{Noah, if any of us fails and dies, stay in the crack as quietly as possible.}  Shu Wei said to Noah as she slowly walked to the entrance.

A tiny crack in the cave was revealed by Xiao Ning, she and Shu Wei had found it earlier in the night.

{Hide here so you can at least survive if we fail! }

{Okay!}

...

Slowly approaching towards the entrance, Xiao Ning backed up near the cave's wall.

In the beginning, Xiao Ning intended to slay these three giants and earn their 30 points, but without the advantage of trees, the survival rate wasn't very high.

Shu Wei raised her hand and fired a shot towards the wall to temporarily divert the Giants attention.

When a wind raged in front of Xiao Ning and Shu Wei, they were just about to exit the entrance.

Without thinking about concealing themselves, they responded fast and leapt out the entrance at the same time.

When Xiao Ning touched down, she quickly tumbled to the ground and turned around to see a nine-foot-tall gaint. 

Shiny canine teeth were the most noticeable feature of this giant. Those canine teeth must have a horrible amount of bite force.

If she hadn't reacted so quickly, she might have been squished to death by it.

Without more time to contemplate, Xiao Ning hurriedly searched for Shu Wei.

She wasn't in as good of a position as Shu Wei. Close to a tree that is 10 feet tall, providing sufficient height to hide from the predatory giant.

At this same moment, Noah's childlike scream could be heard.

Xiao Ning and Shu Wei both saw Noah being held securely in the hands of one of the three giants as it was given to the nine-foot-tall monster.

It had a massive fin on its back and a powerful physique, just like a shark.

Noah, who was just 4 feet tall, appeared to be incredibly little in comparison to the new shark behemoth.

While hiding in the tree branches, Shu Wei raised her hand and fired twice at the giant.

Xiao Ning, unable to intervene to save Noah, climbed a nearby tree.

With a wave of its palm, the nine feet tall beast quickly shielded itself from the gunshots.

Shu Wei's hands changed to the wicked man's gun still trying to save Noah, using the gun's bullets at the fastest speed and hitting the giant's body with a 'bang'.

But at this moment, the giant's mouth with extremely sharp teeth bit Noah's foot.

{AHHHHHH…}

A scream vibrated in both Xiao Ning and Shu Wei's heads.

{Keep calm Noah! It's just a foot!} Xiao Ning's teeth cracked, Noah's sound would simply distract Shu Wei.

It was just a foot, and if Shu Wei killed the giant, there was a chance that he might live.

Shu Wei once more raised her gun and was about to fire when-

'Click...click..'

Shu Wei, who has always been calm, instantly reddened her eyes.

Knowing that it was useless, she still tried to shoot from the empty gun.

Now that the crimson sun had fully risen, Xiao Ning could see the nine-foot giant's mouth wide-open with rows of dense, pointed teeth.

'Crunch'.

The behemoth bit into Noah, devouring the lower part of his body.

Shu Wei, who has always been composed, immediately became more red-eyed.

The giant threw Noah's lifeless upper body as he and his team of three small giants made their way away.

Whether the giant did this out of contempt for human meat was unclear to Xiao Ning.

Shu Wei and Xiao Ning slowly climbed down from the tree and moved toward Noah's corpse after the monster left.

Shu Wei threw her empty pistol into the air while picking up the wooden stick that had fallen next to Noah's lifeless body.

Noah's corpse legs were bleeding when Xiao Ning arrived, and Shu Wei was using her remedies to stop the bleeding.

However, it wasn't possible to bring a dead person back to life.

Noah had passed away. The young boy who was the first to flee and was always quite happy was dead.

Xiao Ning wasn't sure if she was depressed, but she could tell Shu Wei was.

She wasn't as sympathetic as Shu Wei.

"Shu Wei, let's move on; moreover beasts might be drawn to Noah's blood.", remarked Xiao Ning.

Xiao Ning knelt next to Shu Wei and began looking for Noah's scroll of zombie occupation.

Without being able to locate it, Xiao Ning remarked, "Maybe he used the scroll, you know-"

Before Xiao Ning could complete, a blast of light flashed in their eyes as a woman's upbeat voice rang out behind them.

"Aw, your companion died; why don't you hand me some of your stuff to soothe his soul?"

Behind them, a woman wielding a bazooka appeared.
