Bai Youwei turned around, feeling nauseous.

Her stomach roiled, yet nothing came up.

The rumbling on the other side had finally subsided. No one knew how many were killed or injured. Those who survived were standing still in the mud, stunned and at a loss.

A tall, skinny guy named Hui was unusually brave. He shouted at everyone: “What the fuck are you waiting for?! Start looking! We only have 20 seconds! Fuck!”

The crowd finally snapped out of their daze and began to search for a ball nearby.

“Look in this direction,” Shen MO suddenly said, with chilling calmness. “The last splash was around here.”

The area pointed out by Shen MO had about a dozen pits, reducing the search area by at least two-thirds.

Tan Xiao was the closest one and didn’t hesitate to lead the search.

Hui was taken aback for a moment, he immediately followed suit, bringing along two of his men to join the search for the ball.

Those who had fought fiercely last night were now uniting in order to survive.

However, the pits were collapsing and filling up with time, making it impossible to tell where the golden ball was. The men could only use all their strength to dig in the mud.

Handful after handful, their hands were full of the slushy, gooey mud, and they still couldn’t touch the hard texture of the ball.

Bai Youwei watched them from a distance.

Then, she turned her head and looked at the corpses sinking into the mud.

Her terrified heart was slowly calming down…

A familiar sense of excitement began to arise from the depths of her heart.

She wasn’t happy because people were dying, she wasn’t that twisted.

It was just like last time, just like participating in an extreme sport. There was fear, trembling, and unease, but also anticipation.

Before she could figure out why she was feeling this way, a child’s voice echoed in the cave, sounding gleeful –

“The frog is coming, bugs, hide!”

Everyone froze.

Then the ground started to shake, the mud trembled! A golden ball rolled out of the churning mud –

“It’s there!” someone shouted with excitement. “Quick!…”

But then an even bigger tremor shook the ground and the entire mud pit seemed to boil. Everyone fell or rolled over, unable to keep their balance, let alone touch the golden ball which was gradually moving away!

Large chunks of mud rose and fell and a massive creature finally appeared before them!

Its body was as big as a five or six-story building!

Its color, a vibrantly rich turquoise!

Its eyes bulged out! Its extraordinarily wide mouth nearly engulfed half its head!

A frog!

The frog that the Inspector had mentioned finally showed up!

Someone cried out in horror, “Run!!

Before the voice could fade, people were already scattering in all directions!

But with the mud everywhere, how fast could they run?

And it wasn’t as if everyone was running. Some people were paralyzed, blankly staring at the colossal beast before them, their minds were blank, their legs just not obeying their commands.

Bai Youwei saw the frog open its mouth.

A long tongue shot out from it.

Its bright red color was slick with mucus, like a rubber band, it snapped out, growing longer and longer before sticking to a struggling woman in the pit —

That half-second was extremely short, yet for Bai Youwei, it seemed to last for a minute.

She watched as the woman’s expression froze the moment the tongue stuck to her and then it snapped back like lightning! The woman disappeared into the wide mouth before she could even make a sound!

Gollum.

Swallowed…

Bai Youwei’s whole body went numb.

She felt as if she was being pierced by countless needles, her body ached! And felt cold!

The fleeing people had no idea what was happening behind them. They continued to move, wading through the mud, straining to find a cover!

And right behind them, the frog’s tongue continued to extend and retract with a rapid speed, like it was feasting on a swarm of headless flies, enjoying itself to the fullest!

The frog is coming, bugs better hide.

Bai Youwei slowly clenched her fists.

So the frog’s golden ball, that’s what it was all about….
