Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Chapter 617: All the Child Chapters Are Lies (19)

Having seen many deaths along the way, Zitong and the others didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Instead, they wanted to clap and cheer: "That person should have been dealt with long ago, that disgusting toad."

"He probably thinks he's some kind of protagonist. What kind of time is this to dare to resort to moral blackmail?"

Zitong scoffed, "He doesn't think we're going to argue with him, does he? That's ridiculous."

"Don't you think I'm cruel?" Snow White asked curiously.

The men shook their heads: "Of course not, we're all in this together, who would betray us?"

“If you don’t kill this kind of person, he might drag us down with him later. Besides, he was just going to see Princess Baixiang, a rival. If he dies, he dies.”

A moment later, they finally emerged from the dark woods.

The sun was shining brightly, and there were indeed no monsters outside.

Those who emerged breathed a sigh of relief. Cinderella looked at the torch in her hand:

"Did Zitong conjure this torch? It's quite powerful; it hasn't burned out yet after so long."

She held the torch and waved it: "Even a strong wind can't blow it out, is this the power of magic?"

Zitong waved her hand, looking completely bewildered: "I didn't conjure a torch, didn't Shuyi take it out?"

Everyone looked at Little Red Riding Hood.

Little Red Riding Hood shook her head, equally bewildered: "I don't know. When it suddenly appeared in front of me, I thought it was Zitong who conjured it up."

250 asked in his mind's eye: "Your Highness, did you create this?"

On the ancient city tower, Chi Xing's legs dangled in mid-air, with Si Yu sitting beside him.

"Ayu, did you conjure up the torch?"

Si Yu nodded: "It wasn't Xingxing who said we can't let them die."

Chixing hugged him and kissed him: "Yes, it's still Ayu who has the best ideas."

Si Yu's thoughts were simple: if this Little Red Riding Hood was her future brother-in-law, she could conjure up some self-defense tools for him.

As Little Red Riding Hood's companion and also the person Akahoshi is protecting, Siyu will protect the others as well.

And so, the group of people, who knew nothing about the situation, successfully reached the entrance to the next city before nightfall.

"Wait, are you really going to travel? It's nighttime now."

These words were spoken by Jumo to Snow White and the others.

Of the remaining dozens of people, Snow White had a vague impression of this person.

She only had a vague impression of them. Looking around, she saw that among the dozens of people, there were quite agile individuals, but they were all carrying around burdensome princes.

The princes were all terrified and looked pale. Some even vomited as soon as they entered the city, probably because of the horses' jolting.

Snow White looked them over with a look of disgust.

She suddenly realized that these people were not her competitors, nor were they obstacles to her finding Haitang; the monsters she had encountered along the way were.

Ignoring them, he led his men into the darkness.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and someone asked, "Did we catch up with them?"

One of the princes said, "I won't chase after them. I'm too tired and need to rest."

Someone chimed in, "Exactly! It's so late at night, even monsters need to rest, right?"

"Even if they don't rest, how can we be sure they won't come out and attack people who pass by?"

"That's right, people on their way might become the monsters' targets."

Upon hearing this, the people who had intended to chase after them immediately gave up the idea, and they found a place to rest together.

Late at night, a dripping sound came from the floor.

A prince suddenly noticed something crawling on his neck; it felt sticky and slippery.

The sudden stinging pain made him sit up abruptly, thinking it was a snake, and he screamed in fright.

The others around were instantly awakened, and the ticking sound did not disappear in the light of the oil lamp.

The oil lamp illuminated long, thin, and bouncy insects. Someone plucked one off the back of their hand, and blood immediately began to flow from the back of their hand.

"What, what is this thing? It's disgusting!"

"ignition!"

Some people took out torches they had made not long ago and lit them, trying to scare away these bloodsucking creatures with the fire.

However, the dripping sound became more and more frequent, and many insects jumped onto the doors and windows, attaching themselves with their suckers on one end while actively stretching out their slender bodies to search for prey on the other.

Before long, they had climbed all over the doors, windows, and even the roof of the house.

Some people came in through the crack in the door, while others climbed directly up the chimney and crawled out of the stove opening.

The people inside the house hurriedly went to light the stove, but as soon as they got there, the insects jumped onto their faces and began to frantically suck their blood.

Unfortunately, this thing was small and bounced around a lot, so the person couldn't catch it at all.

"Ahhh, help me—"

As soon as the man caught one, countless insects, attracted by the smell of blood, jumped onto his face.

It burrows into vulnerable areas like the eyes and nose to suck up more blood.

When the others rushed over to help, the man was already lying on the ground, howling in pain. Several people held torches, but no one dared to approach until the man suddenly cried out and turned over.

"Ah! Help! Help me!"

The sight of brown insects covering their faces and bodies terrified them, causing them to scream.

At this time, more and more things appeared in the stove, clumps of crickets pupating, becoming even more active after smelling the blood.

As Snow White and her companions walked along, they soon came across some dried-up corpses by the roadside, their blood drained.

"Let's hurry up, I have a feeling these people died in a strange way."

Zitong spotted a bug falling from the tree; the bug was wriggling and trying to jump onto the horse's leg.

"Ah, what is this?"

She reacted quickly, striking the thing with her torch as it jumped at her.

With a "sizzle," the thing burned stiff and fell to the ground.

"They're land leeches, they suck blood, let's get away quickly."

Little Red Riding Hood had seen these things in a documentary before. It is said that there are many of them on the mountain, and you can be killed by these little creatures if you are not careful.

Not daring to delay, they rode their horses at breakneck speed.

These horses are quite capable; they eat grass on their own and know to find water when they're thirsty. They've been fine and haven't been injured these past few days.

They ran all the way until dawn, and as the sun rose, they looked up at the tall and magnificent building.

"Is this the royal city?" Cinderella looked at the gilded inscriptions on the royal city walls.

"We'll find out once we go in," Snow White said, riding her horse inside.

After traveling all night, they did not see any other living people besides themselves.

As soon as they entered the city gate, they found a small dog sleeping by the roadside.

The puppy was fast asleep; the sound of horses' hooves didn't even wake it.

The royal city was very quiet, so quiet that it didn't seem like anyone lived there.

"Is this the sleeping kingdom? I thought the fairy tales were all fake."

Li Zirui was now in the mood to look around.

As the sunlight shone down, the entire royal city had a retro and cozy feel, truly like stepping into a fairy tale book.

At this moment, the group felt completely relaxed. After walking along the street for an hour, they finally saw the legendary Palace of the King of Passion Fruit.
