"This thing really works." Gu Fan seized the opportunity, grabbed Li Shi's hand, and quickly fled.
Listening to the roaring sound from the monster, Gu Fan and Li Shi were relieved to have narrowly escaped with their lives but couldn't bear to imagine how furious the monster would be once it recovered.
As they ran, Gu Fan asked, "Do you know how long the pepper spray works for?"
Li Shi shook her head. "I don't know either; this is my first time using it."
"Alright!" Gu Fan could only hope that the spray's effect would last long enough for them to escape safely.
One strike was lucky; twice would be tempting fate. He doubted the monster would be careless again, meaning using the pepper spray against it again was unlikely to work.
The two ran until they were out of breath before finally making it out of the forest, gasping for air as they stopped.
