The most powerful wizard in the magic world

Chapter 167 The Arrival of Fear

"This...what's going on?" Ah Hao muttered to himself, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible. He slowly backed away, trying to escape from this disturbing place, but his steps seemed to be stuck.

At this moment, a shadow flashed behind him. Ah Hao turned around suddenly and saw Gerlin standing not far from him with a cold smile on his face. "You are really slow," Gerlin said in a low voice, as if coming from the abyss, "Xiaojie can no longer accompany you."

Ah Hao's heart was shaken, anger and fear intertwined, not knowing how to react. He looked directly at Gerlin and squeezed out a few words with difficulty: "Why...why did you kill him?"

"Why?" Gerlin smiled contemptuously, "Because he was chosen. His ability is too mediocre, and his survival will only drag us down. You have to understand that everyone in the secret realm is fighting for their own survival."

Ah Hao felt panic, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "I don't want to be involved in this kind of fight! I just want to go home, all this... all this is too crazy!"

"Go home?" Gellin repeated these two words coldly. "If you want to survive, you must learn to face reality. There is no real home here, only strength and wisdom."

"But this doesn't mean we have to kill each other!" Ah Hao roared angrily, his voice echoing in his heart. He suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness, vaguely realizing whether he could really trust the person in front of him.

"Unfortunately, you are still too naive." Gerlin kicked a stone casually and whispered, "If we don't kill the weak, we will be eliminated."

Ah Hao's thoughts were in a mess, as if he was being mercilessly torn apart by reality. He began to doubt his own judgment, and his intuition warned him that the man in front of him was definitely a dangerous guide.

"I won't go with you." Ah Hao tried to make his voice firm. He felt a courage he had never felt before. "I would rather die than become a pawn in your hands!"

Gerlin smiled disdainfully, with a strange light flashing in his eyes: "But do you know that courage cannot make up for your incompetence? The beast tide in the secret realm may appear at any time, and the consequence of staying here will be death."

"I won't stay here." Ah Hao answered firmly, and a glimmer of hope finally ignited in his heart. He looked around, and the surroundings were still filled with a dark atmosphere, but he knew that he was no longer waiting helplessly.

"Then give it a try." Gerlin was relaxed and didn't take Ah Hao's words to heart at all. "But I advise you not to waste your time in front of me. Your choice means the difference between life and death. I suggest you think carefully about it."

He turned around, leaving behind a shadow, and slowly disappeared into the darkness. Ah Hao stood there, like a lonely tree in the cold wind. Although he was in a difficult situation, he never thought of giving up.

As time went by, the atmosphere around him became more and more oppressive. Ah Hao decided to follow his own ideas and carefully think about how to overcome the current predicament. He urgently needed to find a safe place to temporarily avoid the threat. He walked slowly into the distance, secretly vowing in his heart that he would never be controlled by others again.

However, the dangers of the secret realm were all around him, and the cold wind blowing in his face seemed to warn him that there was no safe zone ahead as he had imagined. He heard a rustling sound in his ears, as if reminding him of something.

Suddenly, he turned around and saw a giant beast approaching silently. Its cunning and fierce eyes stared at Ah Hao, revealing its incomparable hunger. Ah Hao's mind went blank in an instant, his heart was beating wildly, and by the time he reacted, it was too late to escape.

"Don't move!" He shouted with all his strength, and his voice seemed to tremble with fear at this moment.

But the beast showed no sign of stopping, instead it sped up. Ah Hao's body froze in fear, and he knew he had to take action.

After calming down, he hurriedly looked for something that could be used as a weapon. There were some stones and broken branches scattered around, so he quickly bent down, grabbed a branch, gritted his teeth, and faced the oncoming beast tide.

The beast was getting closer and closer. Ah Hao held the branch tightly, raised it above his head, and said to himself: "This is my only chance! Don't give up!"

Just as countless thoughts were intertwined in his mind, the beast suddenly pounced on him, opening its mouth and revealing its sharp teeth. Ah Hao rushed forward with all his strength, swinging the branch and hitting the beast's jaw. The intense pain made it stop for a short time.

Taking this opportunity, Ah Hao quickly turned sideways and began to run deep into the forest. The hungry beast did not give up and continued to chase him. Ah Hao was panicked and felt the approach of life and death. He had never felt so desperate before and began to think about the right and wrong of his choice.

While running, Ah Hao looked back from time to time and saw the beast was still not far away, chasing him vigorously. He became more and more certain in his heart that he had to survive. He silently repeated Gellin's words, and his inner struggle became more intense: "Do I really have to use violence to survive?" If he really wanted to survive in this secret place, then is the law of the strong the only way out?

The leaves slipped by and he lost time to think. He felt a wave of fatigue coming over him, but he had to keep running. Finally, he rushed into the dense forest, trying to find a place to hide.

The roar of the beast behind him was getting more and more angry. Ah Hao regained a trace of his mind: he had to stay calm and not be overwhelmed by fear. He began to look around to see if the uneven terrain would help reduce the approach of the pursuers.

"Leave!" He kept reminding himself in his heart.

Just when he found a relatively secluded recess and tried to hide temporarily, the shadow of the beast approached here. He held his breath, hid behind a thick tree trunk, and waited nervously for the arrival of fear.

But something unexpected happened. Just as he held his breath, the roar of the beast suddenly disappeared, and the air around him fell into a dead silence.

Ah Hao slowly stuck his head out and looked around, only to see a shocking scene - a beast that was even more terrifying than before was in a fierce conflict with the previous beast. The two beasts were engaged in a life-and-death battle in front of him, and the sound of strong impact and biting resounded throughout the field.
