High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 110 - 104: Beast Tide Erupts, There’s Still Time!

Chapter 110: Chapter 104: Beast Tide Erupts, There’s Still Time!
It was Miaomiao, who had changed into an old tracksuit and tied up her hair. She came rushing over, gripping a knife in her hands, and without hesitation, slashed through behind the harvester.
The sound of gunfire rang out again, and together they successfully forced the big wolf to retreat.
"Miaomiao?!"
Old Zhao looked at the silhouette standing in front of him, his face a mixture of shock and relief.
"Dad, let’s kill it first. Here, take the knife."
"Okay."
The father and daughter instantly reached an agreement. Spiritual Light flickered in Miaomiao’s hand, and a long saber appeared out of thin air in her left hand. Old Zhao’s eyes lit up, and he immediately discarded the Broken Blade in his hand, taking the knife his daughter handed over.
He could feel that the knife was far better than the one he had before, at least a Second Level Weapon, and his confidence soared at that moment.
At this point, everyone else gathered around, and Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth and charged forward too.
"This guy is too fast, we need to disable one of its legs. Old Zhao, you shoot its leg; the three of us will hold it down for you."
"Alright."
Old Zhao quickly took bullets from his chest pocket and reloaded, while Old Zhao and Miaomiao stepped forward, slashing out a few cuts, and Xiaoxiao also charged forward with a roar, swinging his saber.
The saber flashed and gunshots rang. Meanwhile, villagers also threw their weapons forward.
Finally, Old Zhao pulled the trigger once more, hitting the big wolf’s left forelimb for the third time, causing its left forelimb to hang weakly and its speed to plummet. It began to attempt an escape.
"Now’s the time, kill it!"
The three seized the opportunity to attack, and after a dozen strikes, Miaomiao slashed the big wolf’s belly, followed by Old Zhao’s strike, and after several chops, the big wolf let out a final mournful howl and was hacked to death in a frenzy.
"It’s dead, this guy is finally dead, we’ve won."
"Ha ha, we won."
Everyone cheered excitedly, but only after a few seconds, a beast’s roar echoed from the mountains, like a blow to the head, pouring cold water over everyone.
The cheers came to an abrupt halt.
"If it’s just one..." Village chief Old Xiao hadn’t finished speaking.
After one beast’s roar, there was unexpectedly a dozen more, maybe even more, as echoes responded, and for a moment everyone’s heart sank into the abyss, despair spreading in everyone’s heart.
"This time it’s not just one, there are at least ten more."
"It’s over, this is all over!"
East Village is surrounded by mountains, with nowhere to escape.
In this moment of despair, a phone rang, and upon seeing the caller ID, Miaomiao first showed joy, then her expression became very complex. She then took a deep breath and answered the phone.
Being able to say goodbye in the end, perhaps, wasn’t so bad, at least it wouldn’t be so regretful.
"Miaomiao, where are you now? Quickly tell me!" A familiar and anxious voice came from the other end of the line.
Thinking she could control her emotions, Miaomiao suddenly felt her nose sting, tears overflowed uncontrollably from the corner of her eyes, and she covered her mouth, sobbing silently.
"Miaomiao, can you hear me?"
"Are you and Xiaoyue in the village, or in the city?" Su Mu’s tone became even more urgent.
But the more urgent it was, the more saddened Miaomiao felt at this moment, because she couldn’t let go.
"Su Mu, I can hear you. I took Xiaoyue to our parents’ house for the weekend in the village; nothing has happened here... Xiaoyue is tired from playing, she’s already asleep..."
There was a brief silence on the phone, evidently noticing something was off, quickly Su Mu spoke with a firm tone.
"Miaomiao, I’ll be there soon, trust me!"
Su Mu’s voice came from the other end of the phone, audible to everyone present, and Old Zhao sighed lightly upon hearing it.
It’s too late, everything is too late.
