“It’s a Unihorn Giant Worm, run!”

Unihorn Giant Worm. Eric Turner’s mind quickly recalled information about the Unihorn Giant Worm. At school, this creature was classified as an H-level ferocious beast. Although it didn’t have any special abilities, each Unihorn Giant Worm was over twenty meters long, and its skin was impervious to blades and bullets.

Even bloodline warriors would get headaches when facing them.

At the settlement, this kind of Unihorn Giant Worm was rated as disaster-level, because they posed the greatest threat to the safety of the settlement.

Eric Turner’s reaction was no slower than Edward Thompson’s, but just as he leapt into the air, he saw Edward Thompson’s falling body get pierced straight through by a long, earth-yellow horn.

Edward Thompson wanted to scream but couldn’t. On his face, there was fear, reluctance, but above all, a sense of relief.

A relief that finally let everything go!

Eric Turner understood this relief very well. It was a kind of liberation, a release from the struggle.

There wasn’t just one Unihorn Giant Worm, but two.

And now, Eric Turner himself was surrounded by the Unihorn Giant Worms!

The moment he felt his body falling, he saw a single horn rising up to meet him in the direction he was dropping.

Death?

If dying could prove this was just a nightmare, Eric Turner thought that wouldn’t be so bad. But at the moment death approached, he felt that if he was really pierced by that horn, he might truly die.

Don’t die, I can’t die!

At the moment between life and death, the instinct to survive made his hand fall onto the hilt of the Tiger Roar blade!

Chapter 5: Tiger’s Roar Shakes the Land

Edward Thompson was a veteran of the field team, but even he was helpless against the Unihorn Giant Worm, and ended up losing his life!

Could he, Eric Turner, do it?

At this moment, Eric Turner didn’t have time to wonder if he could. The instinct to survive left him no choice. The instant his hand gripped the Tiger Roar blade, he felt all his energy and spirit focus into this one strike!

With nowhere left to dodge, as the two-foot-long giant horn swept toward him, he unleashed a slash—Tiger’s Roar Shakes the Land.

This strike contained all of Eric Turner’s strength!

And the target of this strike was the Unihorn Giant Worm’s head, as thick as a barrel!

According to the skills taught at the survival point, when dealing with this kind of Unihorn Giant Worm, you must never slash at its skin.

Because not only is the Unihorn Giant Worm’s skin incredibly tough, it also secretes a liquid that makes attacks slide off its surface.

But at this moment, Eric Turner had no choice!

It was too late to slash at the giant horn, so he could only aim for the Unihorn Giant Worm’s neck, fighting for a slim chance at survival.

As he swung this strike, Eric Turner didn’t know how much strength he used. He only knew that the Tiger Roar blade in his hand had become a flash of light.

As the blade’s light fell, Eric Turner first felt a jolt in his hand, but then it swept through the air, and the horned head, less than half a foot from Eric Turner, suddenly dropped to the ground.

At that moment, Eric Turner felt all his strength drain away, and his whole body was on the verge of collapse.

But just as he steadied himself, a tremendous force struck his back, sending him flying.

The force was like a giant pillar smashing down, making Eric Turner feel a surge of heat in his abdomen, as if he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood.

In the end, Eric Turner forced himself to swallow the blood. Although it was his first battle, this fight had already fused the host’s and his own memories together.

What had just hit him was the tail of the other Unihorn Giant Worm. The reason he survived was because his Thirteen Guardians Iron Body had reached the fifth level.

Not only was his flesh impervious to blades and bullets, but his muscles and bones were as strong as iron!

The Unihorn Giant Worm’s tail that had sent Eric Turner flying lashed out again, while the headless Unihorn Giant Worm, not yet dead, thrashed even more wildly in all directions.

Eric Turner knew he couldn’t withstand the giant tails of two Unihorn Giant Worms. The moment the tails lashed out, he used the “Leaping Over Mountains and Streams” move from the Five Tiger Blade technique to dodge again and again.

Once, twice, three times...

Within a minute, Eric Turner had lost count of how many times he’d dodged. With each evasion, he felt death drawing ever closer.

During these evasions, Eric Turner had thought about counterattacking, but under the assault of two Unihorn Giant Worms, he simply couldn’t find any opportunity.

Especially the headless Unihorn Giant Worm, which grew more frenzied as time went on. Half of its attacks landed on its own companion.

Just as Eric Turner felt he couldn’t hold on any longer, Evan Clark suddenly appeared!

As for how he appeared, Eric Turner didn’t notice at all.

At the instant the two giant tails lashed out, Evan Clark swung his blade. As the blade struck, Eric Turner saw a crimson blade light over a foot long flash from Evan Clark’s sword.
