Tuya quickly rushed forward, swung her spear left and right, knocking the two participants to the ground, and then continued to rush towards Hajime while waving her tail at Lixin. Lixin was afraid of being stung by Tuya's tail, so he quickly stepped aside, and Tuya rushed directly to Hajime.
Lan Huan did a backflip, flew back, and stood in front of Hajime. She waved her hand, and hundreds of vines rose from the ground, forming a wall that separated Tuya from Hajime and Lan Huan. Tuya roared loudly at Lan Huan, and hundreds of scorpions emerged from the ground and rushed towards Hajime and the others.
Shik looked at Gang and turned pale. "What will we do?" he asked in a broken voice.
"We have no choice but to fight our way out of here," Hai said.
"We'll be torn apart by these scorpions," one participant said in horror, his hand that held his sword trembled.
"We should never have been here in the first place," cried another participant.
Tuya hit Lan Huan in the abdomen with a powerful punch. Lan Huan disappeared, and the wooden female figure fell to the ground and broke into two pieces. Hajime opened his eyes and groaned in pain. Tuya punched Hajime in the abdomen, sending Hajime flying into the tree. Hajime fell to the ground and vomited blood.
"Hajime!" Yul shouted and rushed towards Hajime, but he was surrounded by scorpions.
Knowing that there was no obstacle between her and Hajime, Tuya quickly rushed towards Hajime.
Hajime groaned in pain on the ground and vomited out more blood. "Hajime! Get up!" Yul yelled, trying his best to escape from the surrounded scorpions.
Hajime felt a sharp pain in his stomach as he looked at Tuya, who was walking towards him with a smile and holding a spear. But even in this moment of his death, his eyes are fixed on Yul, who is surrounded by many scorpions.
"Ugh..." Hajime grunted in pain and stood up, slowly standing up using the tree as support. "Yul..."
Tuya swung the spear towards Hajime and Hajime raised his right hand to protect himself, but when Tuya swung down the spear, she quickly turned half of her body and knocked the incoming spear from her back away with her left hand. Tuya's spear tip only scratched Hajime's palm.
The wolf jumped forward and grabbed Tuya's tail. The spear that was knocked away flew back to Michio's hand. Michio jumped forward and swung the spear towards Tuya. Then rushed out of the tunnel beside Gang were U-ri, Bong, Lixin's men, and the surviving participants.
Bong and Shi quickly rush to Lixin, and Jin, Feng, Heng and other participants begin fighting the smaller scorpions.
"Lixin?" Bong said worriedly.
Tuya flicked her tail hard, shaking the wolf off her tail. The wolf stood up, walked up to Hajime, and growled at Tuya.
"Stupid dog," Tuya frowned angrily.
Michio rushed forward with his spear and attacked Tuya.
Abrafo turned around and saw Michio fighting with Tuya. He saw Shi and U-ri already rushing over to help Lixin. Seeing that his friends were all out of danger, he felt more relieved, and this relief made him feel that his strength had finally been restored.
Onon rushed towards Hajime with an axe. He swung the ax at Hajime's neck, intending to cut off Hajime's neck, but Abrafo jumped forward and swung his sword at Onon, blocking Onon's attack.
"You can't beat us." Abrafo gritted his teeth and pushed Onon's double-edged axe away because his back had already touched Hajime.
Onon smiled at Abrafo. "Watch me." He chuckled, punched Abrafo twice in the abdomen, and then began to push Abrafo and Hajime violently towards a tree. He closed his hand and hit Abrafo on the abdomen third time, sending Abrafo and Hajime stumbled toward the tree behind Hajime.
Shi looked at Hajime and Abrafo who had lost the battle with Onon. He looked at Lixin and asked, "My Lord, do we want to help them?"
Bong said, "No. Lixin is injured. Your duty is to ensure Lixin's safety." He grabbed U-ri's hand. "Old man, look at Lixin's leg."
U-ri said, "Save my friends, I will consider it."
"You..." Bong gritted his teeth. He looked at Jin, Feng and Heng. "Go and save them." He turned to U-ri. "Now, look at Lixin's legs."
Hajime felt his back pressed against the tree, feeling the pain from the old wound as his back was pushed hard against the tree. "Abrafo...Abrafo..." Hajime murmured, reaching out and holding Abrafo's hand.
Onon smirked and pulled out the dart on his thigh, stabbing Hajime's hand that was holding Abrafo's hand. Hajime screamed in pain and Onon laughed loudly.
"Hajime!" Yul yelled angrily a few feet away from Hajime, Abrafo, and Onon, as more and more scorpions emerged from the collapsed tunnels.
"Kill them, my children," Tuya shouted happily, and continued to attack Michio with the others.
Hajime looked at Yul, who was trying to break through the scorpion formation surrounding him. Hajime saw his blood dripping onto Abrafo's sword, and Abrafo's sword suddenly turned red. While his eyes were still on Yul, who was fighting the scorpions a few feet away from him, he let go of Abrafo's hand and placed his bloody hand on the tree behind him. Hajime's eyes suddenly turned red, and he looked directly at Onon.
"What..." Onon felt Abrafo pushing him forward, as if Abrafo had the power of ten thousand people. He glanced at Hajime and found that Hajime's expression was a little different from before, so he quickly took a step back.
"Hajime," Abrafo turned around and found that Hajime was still staring forward motionless. "Hajime!"
Abrafo looked at Hajime's hand and found that the tree had begun to suck Hajime's blood. He stretched out his hand and tried to pull Hajime's hand away, but he couldn't do it. The loud rustling of leaves above made Abrafo look up. Abrafo saw leaves began falling down to the ground.
When the leaves touched the ground, twenty men who looked exactly like Abrafo slowly stood up from the ground. As the rustling became stronger, the leaves falling from the trees turned into Abrafo. As soon as they hit the ground, they attacked the scorpions.
Abrafo quickly rushed forward and attacked Onon with the other thirty Abrafos, while the many Abrafos rushed towards Michio and Yul.
Onon and Tuya continue to fight against the endless leaves that keep falling from the trees and transforming into Abrafo. Tuya looked back and saw the scorpions being defeated one by one by the army of Abrafo's look alike, and she quickly backed away from Michio. Tuya rushed forward into one of the tunnels that had not yet collapsed, disappearing into the darkness. The scorpions that were still alive saw Tuya running away and they quickly retreated with Tuya.
Now, Onon stood alone in the middle of the crowd, with hundreds of Abrafos surrounded him. He realizes that the only way to eliminate the impostors is to kill the person who summoned them, or to kill their original host, but there are hundreds of Abrafos around him, so who is the real Abrafo among those around him? He continued to hold the axes tightly, bracing himself for the attack of the Abrafos who surrounded him.
Abrafo rushed forward and slashed Onon's side with a sword. Then the many Abrafos began to rush forward and attacked Onon. Although Onon was able to block a few attacks, hundreds of swords came at him. The passing of hundreds of swords seriously injured Onon. Onon stood in a bloody mess after hundreds of Abrafos launched separate attacks on him. Onon's body was covered with cuts from head to toe, but Onon refused to give up and still stood firm.
"Charge again." Abrafo said, raising his sword and preparing to attack Onon with other Abrafos, but suddenly the many Abrafos began to turn into leaves.
As soon as Hajime pass out from blood loss, the many Abrafos quickly turned into leaves and fell to the ground. Yul turned to look at Hajime and found that Hajime's face had turned pale, and then Hajime had fallen to the ground.
"Hajime." Yul quickly ran towards Hajime.
Abrafo quickly rushed forward with Michio. Michio hit Onon in the legs with his spear, causing Onon to fall to his knees. Abrafo rushed past Onon and slashed Onon's neck with his sword.
Abrafo turned around and found Onon's head dropped to the side, daggling on one shoulder. Onon's eyes were still blinking. "Ah...disgusting..." Abrafo frowned. Abrafo slashed Onon's head with another swing of his sword, then kicked Onon's body to the ground. "You're one tough bastard."
After Onon died, everyone felt relieved and began to rest. Sitting with Lixin and his four men, Bong took out a handkerchief and was about to wipe Lixin's forehead, but Lixin pushed Bong's hand away. Lixin looked at Bong and asked coldly, "Do you still remember what I told you?"
Bong sighed and said, "I remember. I will stay away from you." He threw the handkerchief to Shi. Bong stood up and was about to leave when Hai walked up to Bong.
Hai said, "So, you also survived the collapsed tunnels."
Bong said, "I always made it through. Thank you for letting me fend for myself."
Hai said, "But you were saved by those people. So, are you with them now?"
Bong looked at Hai, smiled and said, "I can team up with anyone, but I can't team up with you." He rolled his eyes at Gang. "Or your master."
Hai asked, "Why?"
Bong smiled and said, "Because I hate back stabber the most." He walked past Hai. "You'd better be careful, because you never know when I will come to you for revenge." He smiled, turned around and walked towards the opposite side of the open area.
