Chapter 228 The Terrifying Figure

Under the watchful eyes of many.

To everyone's surprise, as this person fell into the viscous blood lake, not a single ripple was created.

The viscous blood was like a mire, attempting to swallow him whole.

This gene warrior clearly didn't want to be consumed by the blood lake and began to struggle violently.

However, despite his struggles, he couldn't break free from the blood-soaked swamp. Not only was it useless, but he was sinking even faster.

Watching this scene from afar, the gene warriors outside the lake exchanged bewildered glances, their faces etched with disbelief.

As fellow gene warriors, they were acutely aware of their own formidable strength.

Yet, with such power, they couldn't even escape this blood lake?

It was almost laughable.

Unlike the others, the gene warrior trapped in the blood lake was truly terrified.

He could clearly sense that the viscous blood was like water, easily agitated.

But no matter how he struggled, his body remained completely motionless.

It was as if…

Something was gripping his feet.

"Help… help me! Save me!"

"Save me!"

With no other choice, the gene warrior began to beg the surrounding gene warriors for help.

"Based on the current situation, this viscous blood lake is peculiar, but as long as it doesn't adhere to you, there shouldn't be a problem."

Observing his plight, the leading gene warrior frowned, analyzed the situation, and then waved his hand, signaling a winged gene warrior beside him to go and rescue him.

"This is nothing to worry about, go and save him!"

The winged gene warrior, receiving the order, nodded and flapped his wings, approaching the trapped warrior.

Silently observing the viscous blood lake below, this gene warrior's brow furrowed, and a strong premonition of dread suddenly washed over him.

"Grab me."

This gene warrior shook his head, not dwelling on the thought. He reached out his hand, intending to pull him up and then quickly leave this damned cursed lake.

Seeing this, the gene warrior ensnared by the blood lake rejoiced and quickly extended his arm to grasp the rescuer's hand.

*Splash, splash!*

As his wings beat, the gene warrior in mid-air frowned.

For some reason, even with all his might, he couldn't pull the other warrior up.

"This is truly strange, I don't believe I can't pull you up!"

He muttered to himself, desperately flapping his wings, trying to lift him.

With his earnest effort.

Finally!

The gene warrior entangled by the blood lake emerged slightly from the viscous blood.

"I'm out, I'm out! Put in a bit more effort!"

The gene warrior in mid-air took a deep breath and nodded, intending to pull him up in one go.

But at that moment.

He suddenly noticed that numerous bubbles were rising from the viscous blood below.

This area had far more bubbles than the rest, appearing more unsettling.

"He must be trying to hide."

He shook his head, not overthinking it.

However, as he inadvertently glanced at the gene warrior he was holding below.

He was shocked to find that the trapped warrior was no longer panicked as before. Instead, his face was covered in an incredibly eerie pallor!

At that instant, his heart pounded with alarm.

But before he could react.

*Gulp!*

The gene warrior below, without any further struggle, rapidly plunged downwards, disappearing without a trace in the viscous blood in the blink of an eye!

The immense force caused the rescuer to stumble.

Fortunately, as the other warrior was about to be swallowed by the viscous blood, he abruptly let go, thus avoiding being consumed himself!

"Fuck!"

"This viscous blood is strange, hurry and get out!"

Witnessing this, he roared hysterically at the gene warriors not far away.

At the same time, with lightning-fast reflexes, he flapped his wings, trying to escape the area of the viscous blood.

*Snap!*

A bizarre scene unfolded as an arm suddenly shot out from the viscous blood and grabbed him.

This arm was entirely blood-red, its fingernails exceptionally long and sharp, like five terrifying swords!

The next second!

Grabbed by the bloody hand, he had no chance to react and was instantly pulled into the viscous blood!

Not even a tiny ripple appeared.

If everyone hadn't been watching, they would have thought he had vanished into thin air.

Not far away.

Looking at the viscous blood, everyone was in an uproar, their faces filled with shock and uncertainty.

Terrifying!

Utterly terrifying.

In less than a minute, two gene warriors had been silently eliminated!

"What… the fuck! What in the world is going on!" the leading gene warrior shouted, suppressing immense anger.

"Do you really think our beautiful country is easy to bully?"

"I'll see what exactly is hidden in there!"

With that said, the gene warrior strode towards the viscous blood.

"Boss… boss, I think we should leave here first."

"This… is not a place we can venture into!"

Several gene warriors quickly grabbed him, their bodies trembling, and offered their counsel.

The scene before them had instilled profound fear in them.

Under such terror, let alone exploring this lake.

The fact that they hadn't fled on the spot was already a testament to their resilience.

"Fuck, are we just going to let them sacrifice in vain?" the leading gene warrior rebuked.

The other gene warriors opened their mouths, unsure how to respond.

They couldn't possibly say they were scared, could they?

They still had some pride.

*Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle, gurgle!*

However, at that very moment, a sound emanated from the viscous blood closest to them.

More bubbles appeared on the surface of the viscous blood.

The breaking of bubbles and the rising of new ones was rhythmic, like a person's breathing.

Seeing this from afar, all the gene warriors turned ashen.

They hadn't forgotten…

It was precisely when the bubbles increased that the chain of events had unfolded.

At this moment.

If they hadn't been at a distance from the lake, based on their prior understanding, nothing would have happened, and they would have already fled.

*Boom!*

However, at this very instant.

Beneath the viscous blood, several blood-red figures emerged from within the bubbles.

Their speed was so great that there was no room for reaction before they landed beside several gene warriors.

Following closely behind!

These strange figures suddenly opened their mouths.

Revealing sharp teeth, they bit down on their necks.

Bright red blood spurted out like a fountain.

"Gulp!"

"Gulp!"

"Gulp!"

A strange sound, like someone enjoying delicious food, followed.

Accompanying this sound, the bodies of the gene warriors whose necks had been bitten rapidly withered.

They became like dried-up corpses!
