This Curse Is Just Awesome Chapter 252

One minute.

Five minutes.

Ten minutes later..

Brother Jie was not back yet.

The hostage named Old Eight's face was getting darker and darker.

He looked at the crowd who were chatting in private, then looked at Chen Yu, who was smoking a cigarette. After a moment of silence, he said, “It's been ten minutes.”

“Oh?” Chen Yu looked at Old Eight and was stunned for a moment before nodding.. “Yes, it's been ten minutes.”

Old Eight: “…”

Chen Yu: “…”

Old Eight: “Aren't you going to make your move?”

Chen Yu: “?”

“I say, aren't you going to make your move?” Old Eight changed his position and asked.

“What move?”

“Didn't we agree that if Brother Jie doesn't come back in ten minutes, you'll feed… feed… feed me that?”

“Oh…” Chen Yu flicked the ash off his cigarette. “I'm just saying, to give Brother Jie some pressure. His strength is only at Level 3, and with the help of his teammate, it won't be easy for him to capture a suitable Level 3 exotic beast. Can I really feed that dirty thing to you? Unless they really run away.”

“This…”

Old Eight was startled, and his expression suddenly became serious. “This won't do!”

Chen Yu: “??”

Not far away, everyone, including Duan Ye, Bahuang Yao, and Ma Li, stopped chatting and looked over.

“The state has its own laws, and the family has its own rules. Without rules, there can be no circle.” Old Eight looked straight into Chen Yu's eyes, his tone was sonorous and forceful. “You're a leader, and every spit you spit is a nail. The order changes day and night, and you lose all dignity. How can you lead a team? How can you make your subordinates believe in you?”

“…”

The cigarette in Chen Yu's hand dropped. “What exactly do you want?”

“I don't want to do anything.” Old Eight stood up. “I just hope that you can keep your word and fulfill your promise.”

Chen Yu: “What… What promise?”

“Feed me.”

Chen Yu: “…”

Everyone: “…”

Old Eight: “You should make me suffer a little, or no one will submit to you.”

Chen Yu: “…”

Old Eight suppressed his aura: “Feed me.”

Chen Yu retreated: “…”

Old Eight: “I want you to feed me!”

Chen Yu continued to retreat: “…”

Beside him, Duan Ye cupped his fists and rested his chin on his hand. His gaze was blurry. “What a romantic interaction.”

Ma Li almost bit her tongue. “How is it romantic?!”

Plop!

At this moment, in the distance, accompanied by a series of tremors, a Level 3 cloven-hoofed exotic beast over 15 meters tall came roaring over.

“Old Eight!” Brother Jie stood on top of the exotic beast's head and pulled hard at its huge horns. “Have you eaten?!”

Old Eight stood rooted to the spot in a daze. His nose felt sore, and he suppressed his sobs. “Brother Jie…”

Seeing Old Eight's expression, Brother Jie's heart sank, and he couldn't help but cry out. “I'm sorry! We… We're late…”

“No.” Brother eight shook his head. “You're early.”

“Chen Yu!” The more Brother Jie thought about it, the angrier he got. He jumped down from the head of the beast and rushed over like a lunatic. He grabbed Chen Yu's collar. “You're going too far! F*ck! Just a few minutes, just a few minutes! We're both alumni, can't you wait to feed him?!”

Chen Yu felt wronged. “I… I didn't feed him either…”

“Ah?” Brother Jie was stunned. He looked at Old Eight suspiciously. “Then… Then why is he crying?”

Old Eight: “…I don't know either.”

…

The new ‘transportation tool' arrived, and Ma Li cuckolded it to control it.

Following that, everyone put the fluorescent beads into the belly of the exotic beast one by one.

After everything was done, they set off again.

Due to the addition of Brother Jie and the other two, the team's ‘formation' had changed.

Ma Li was still in charge of scouting at the front.

Brother Jie and Old Eight were in charge of the left and right sides that were originally empty.

One hostage was left behind to follow behind Chen Yu.

At first, Old Eight wanted to continue being a hostage, but for some reason, Chen Yu was a little afraid of this person, so he sent him far away…

“Brother Yu, with our current bead, it will definitely be no problem for us to fight for first place.”

Looking at Bahuang Yao that was acting as bait to lure the exotic beasts forward, Duan Ye said, “But it shouldn't be possible for us to take the first and second place at the same time.”

“We should get rid of this thought.” Chen Yu yawned. “With Bahuang Yi, it's impossible for us to take the first and second place with just the four hundred or so beads in our hands.”

“Then what should we do?”

“There's no rush. Let someone else go and get it first. There will definitely be a few big battles near the exit. When the time comes, we'll act according to the situation.”

Chen Yu patted Duan Ye on the shoulder. “You must be calm and not be impatient. So what if we can't get the beads? Aren't we at least number one?”

Duan Ye hesitated. “But if that happens, my Martial Arts Holy Book… Won't it be gone?”

“If it's gone, it's gone.” Chen Yu comforted him. “Think about it. So what if it's good outside? When you die of old age, won't you have nothing to lose? You have to be magnanimous.”

Duan Ye: “What if… the prize for second place is also what you want?”

“Then I'll definitely risk my life to snatch it! Why are you still dawdling here?!”

Duan Ye: “…”

Chen Yu: “Eh? Where are you going?”

Duan Ye: “I'm afraid that when you get struck by lightning, you'll implicate me.”

During the conversation…

Ma Li discovered the situation once again and came back to report. “Chen Yu, there are two cameras flying over. Do you need to start acting?”

“There's no need.” Chen Yu waved his hand. “The outside world is unable to contact the interior of the venue. I'm not afraid of being exposed. Continue walking.”

“Alright.”

Nodding her head, Ma Li walked away.

After a while, as expected, two floating cameras floated over. Seeing Chen Yu's strange team, they immediately stopped and flew around to take pictures.

One of the cameras even focused on the Bahuang Yao. It was obvious that the cameraman behind her had recognized her identity.

“Where are we now?”

After advancing for about twenty minutes and passing by a river, Chen Yu asked casually.

“We're about an hour away from the north exit,” Duan Ye replied. “I can vaguely see the wall.”

Raising his head, he looked at the dark clouds and carefully identified the position of the sun. Chen Yu ordered, “Then everyone stop. We won't be leaving for now. Let's rest for a while.”

“We won't be leaving?” Duan Ye was puzzled.

“En, we won't be leaving.” Chen Yu waved his hand. “Our target is too big. Don't enter the circle ahead of time.”

As he spoke, he unleashed his strength and fiercely punched the back of the exotic beast's head.

Dong!

“Roar–“

Dong! Dong! Dong!

“Roar…”

The exotic beast howled in pain and slowly fell to the ground, falling unconscious.

Then, Chen Yu took out a green hat made of Ma Li from his bosom and placed it on the exotic beast's head.

Instantly, the exotic beast stopped moving.

“What a godly skill… It's a pity that a hat that is enchanted once only has a shelf life of thirty minutes. Otherwise, Ma Li would be the richest person if she sold this thing…”

Chen Yu smacked his lips regretfully as he jumped off the exotic beast's body and came to the Riverside. Just as he was about to wash his hands, he noticed that the color in the river wasn't right.

It was slightly yellow…

“Brother Yu, don't touch it.” Duan Ye walked forward, picked up a puddle of water, and observed it carefully. “There's feces in it. It must have come from upstream.”

“…Then why are you still touching it?”

“…Ugh.”

“Choke.”

Pulling out his long sword, Chen Yu said seriously, “You can't take this hand anymore. Just cut it off.”

“Brother… Brother Yu, look over there.” At this moment, Bahuang Yao seemed to have noticed something and pointed straight ahead.

Chen Yu looked in the direction of her finger.

He saw that on the other side of the river, there were three big and burly foreign players squatting by the river, holding water as if they were drinking it.

Duan Ye: “…Ugh.”

“They definitely don't know about it. Let's give them a reminder.”

Chen Yu put away his long spear and placed his hands around his mouth in the shape of a trumpet. he shouted, “Hey! Bro! Don't drink the water in the river. There's feces pollution upstream.”

Bahuang Yao: “Look at the school uniform. It looks like an American.”

Chen Yu: “An American?”

Bahuang Yao: “Yeah.”

After being stunned for a moment, Chen Yu quickly raised his voice and gestured for him to drink the water. “Use your hands to hold it and drink! Drink it in big gulps! Yes! That's it…”

Everyone: “…”

Duan Ye: “…There are so many bamboo shoots.”

Chen Yu: “They still have to ‘sankou'.”

Not long after, the three people on the other side of the river were done drinking. They waved their hands and left. “Thank you!”

Chen Yu: “Take a look.”

…

“Director, the results of the investigation are out.”

At the same time.

In a conference room at the Bird's Nest Stadium.

A female subordinate was holding a stack of documents in her hands, she was reporting to Gou Sheng. “Based on the analysis of the samples at the scene, it can be deduced that the exotic beasts that were attracted by the ball of light last night seemed to have eaten the corpses of their own kind, resulting in severe diarrhea. This is the analysis report given by the second think tank group.”

Gou Sheng took the document and quickly flipped from the first page to the last page, his expression solemn. “Corpses of their own kind… Why would they eat the corpses of their own kind?”

“Because there are a lot of human ingredients on it, such as… Blood.”

“If it can cause the diarrhea of thousands of exotic beasts, then how many tons of blood would it take?”

“In short…” The female subordinate hesitated. “…A lot.”

“Who did this?” Gou Sheng asked.

“We're guessing.” The female subordinate handed over another document. “But according to the current judgment of the seventh think tank group, the most likely one is Year 1, Class 2.”

“Year 1, Class 2…” Gou Sheng narrowed his eyes. “Duan Ye, Chen Yu, and Bahuang Yao…”

“Yes.” The female subordinate nodded.

“…”

“…”

In the empty meeting room, there was half a minute of silence.

Gou Sheng's gaze suddenly turned sharp. “Inform them now to gather all the information about Chen Yu, including his situation in Qingcheng City. There's something wrong with this kid.”

“Yes!”

…

At the Elimination Arena.

1:30 pm.

Chen Yu, who was resting by the riverside, finally stood up. He took out his phone and looked at the time. “It's about time. There's still one and a half hours before the end of the competition. It's time to leave.”

He took off the green hat and the exotic beast struggled to stand up.

Ma Li was in charge of the front.

Brother Jie was in charge of the left.

Old Eight was in charge of the right.

Chen Yu was in charge of…

Everyone once again set foot on the ‘journey.'

Five minutes.

Ten minutes.

Twenty minutes…

The journey was calm and peaceful.

However, Chen Yu's brows were deeply furrowed.

“Something's wrong.”

“There's a problem here…”

There were many exits to the arena, north, south, east, and west.

However, there were also quite a number of contestants.

There was only about an hour left until the end of the competition. Most of the classes should be heading out, so they should be in a crowded state.

It was impossible for them to walk so far and not meet a single class…

“Stop.”

“Everyone stop.”

“Xiao Yao, don't go. Everyone stop.”

Chen Yu slowly pulled out his longsword and looked around cautiously. “Get ready for battle.”

“What's wrong?” Duan Ye stepped forward and asked, “What did you discover?”

“Shh.”

Making a silent gesture, Chen Yu's expression was solemn. “There's a situation. I think we've been ambushed.”

As he spoke, the longsword in Chen Yu's hand stabbed down fiercely, directly piercing through the back of the Level 3 exotic beast's head!

Dong!

The four limbs of the exotic beast stiffened, and it immediately fell to the ground, twitching to death.

Plop!

Plop…

Chen Yu and Duan Ye landed from the sky.

Bahuang Yao immediately ran over and asked nervously, “Brother Yu, what's wrong?”

Chen Yu didn't answer. Instead, after gathering everyone together, he exploded with energy, shouting in three directions: front, left, and right, “Return to the group! Ma Li, Old Eight, Brother Jie, all return! Immediately!”

Huala…

Before long, Brother Jie and Old Eight dug through the bushes and ran back from the left and right.

“What's wrong?”

“What happened?”

Chen Yu observed the two of them. “Are you guys okay?”

“What could have happened?” Brother Jie was confused. Then, he saw the dead exotic beast and was surprised. “You killed it?”

“Yes, I suspect that we have been ambushed. To be cautious, I killed it,” Chen Yu replied. “Since there's not much distance left, it doesn't matter if we drag it.”

After saying that, Chen Yu stood on Tiptoe and looked ahead. “Where's Ma Li?”

Everyone looked at each other and felt that something was amiss.

Based on Ma Li's actions, it shouldn't have taken her so long to return…

“Ma Li! Return to the team!”

Chen Yu raised his voice and shouted loudly.

However, there was still no response.

“Could… something have happened?” Duan Ye was suspicious.

Narrowing his eyes, Chen Yu thought for a moment and looked at Brother Jie and Old Eight. “When you were scouting, did you find anything strange?”

“No.” Brother Jie shook his head.

“No.” Old Eight shook his head.

“Sis… Sister Ma won't have an accident, right…” In Ma Li's class, a girl was so scared that she cried out loud.

“Who is our Sister Ma? Only she can let others have an accident.” Her companion immediately comforted her.

“Brother Yu, shall I go ahead and take a look?” Bahuang Yao raised her hand.

“No.” Without waiting for Chen Yu to speak, Duan Ye rejected her on the spot. “Whether it's a movie, an anime, or a television series, under such circumstances, if we split up, we'll be sending people to their deaths.”

“That's right.” Chen Yu agreed. “We can't split up. Let's walk forward together. Brother Jie, you drag the exotic beast.”

Brother Jie nodded. “Alright.”

After a brief reorganization, everyone began to follow Ma Li's footsteps.

About five minutes later, the entire team stopped.

“The footprints disappeared here.”

Squatting down, Chen Yu carefully observed the ground. “Xiao Yao, you know how to scout, right?”

“Yes.”

“Take a look.”

“Alright.”

Bahuang Yao walked to the footprints and analyzed for a moment with her eyes wide open. She said, “Sister Ma Li seems to have been taken away by someone again.”

Chen Yu: “This ‘again' is used well.”

Everyone: “…”

The young girl continued, “The soil around the footprints is different in terms of humidity and dryness. It's obviously a deliberate cover-up. But…”

“But what?” The female student from Ma Li's class asked.

“But it's very strange.” Bahuang Yao tilted her head and was puzzled. “There are no signs of a struggle at the scene.”

“Perhaps the traces after the fight were also covered up?” Duan Ye said.

“Impossible.” Bahuang Yao looked at Duan Ye. “Even if you hide a footprint, I can still find it. It's impossible to hide the entire scene after the fight. The surrounding branches, even the dewdrops on the branches, are all normal.”

“That's strange.” Chen Yu frowned. “With Ma Li's strength, would she be knocked out in one move…”

Everyone stood rooted to the spot for a long while.

Duan Ye said, “Brother Yu, what should we do now?”

A student from Ma Li's class said, “We have to find Sister Ma!”

“Right, find Sister Ma.”

“She's definitely in danger now.”

“Chen Yu, she's scouting for you. You can't just leave her in the lurch!”

“Sister Ma, Sister Ma…”

Chen Yu shouted in frustration, “Shut up!”

“…”

The scene fell silent.

“Xiao Yao, can you track the other party's hidden tracks?” Chen Yu asked Bahuang Yao.

“Yes.” The girl nodded. “But it will be very slow.”

“How slow?” Duan Ye interjected.

“Track from this direction. If Sister Ma is far away, maybe…” The girl hesitated. “Maybe she won't be able to make it back to the exit in time.”

“Won't she be disqualified after the competition?” Duan Ye frowned.

“…Yes.” Bahuang Yao looked at Chen Yu.

Duan Ye also looked at Chen Yu.

The surrounding people all looked at Chen Yu.

For a moment, he felt a heavy pressure.

But he didn't hesitate and said without hesitation, “Go after her. Let's go after her first. We'll talk about it when the time comes.”

“Okay.”

With the order, the group slightly changed their direction and headed deeper into the forest.

After walking for a short while, Old Eight suddenly said, “Brother Yu, I need to go to the toilet. I can't hold it in anymore.”

Duan Ye turned around. “If we split up, we'll die.”

“Then… Then find someone to accompany me.”

Hearing this, Chen Yu looked at Old Eight thoughtfully. “No need. You can go up here. What are you afraid of?”

“I have a tuba…”

“I have a tuba here as well.”

“Then… Alright then…”

Old Eight nodded. He ran to the back of the exotic beast's corpse and began to go to the toilet.

“Brother Yu, isn't this considered scattering? Do you want me to go and take a look?” Duan Ye asked.

“Alright.” Chen Yu nodded.

Straightening the Clear Sky Staff behind him, Duan Ye covered his nose and walked to the back of the exotic beast. “Hey, hurry up and pull… Hmm?”

Duan Ye was stunned.

Because Old Eight didn't take off his pants.

The other party was just squatting quietly.

“Is this how your village goes to the toilet…”

Bang!

Before Duan Ye could finish his words, Old Eight suddenly exploded with strength and took out a sharp dagger, stabbing it into Duan Ye's chest!

“!!!”

Duan Ye's pupils constricted, wanting to react.

But at such a close distance, as a mage, his body couldn't move at all…

“F*ck…”

Puchi!

Blood splattered everywhere…
