Who says I can't become a Grand Master?

Chapter 143 They escaped!

Chapter 144 They escaped!

Just when everyone thought everything was about to be resolved smoothly, a dull thud suddenly came from ahead.

Something was thrown at me hard.

A huge red and white shadow crashed into several large trees and broke them.

It swept over Zhang Qingzhe's head and slammed heavily onto the grassy slope behind him.

Zhang Qingzhe quickly crouched down while holding Lin Wan, narrowly avoiding the impact.

Turning my head, I saw that it was Steel Bone Bull that had been thrown back.

And its current appearance is extremely pitiful—

The exoskeleton on its body surface was fractured in multiple places, and a magnificent bull horn was even broken off.

Zhang Qingzhe felt a chill run down his spine.

I never imagined that the Deadpool organization members had such a terrifying trump card hidden away.

"Use the [Escape Card] and go!" He shook Lin Wan's arm.

Steel Bone Bull was his strongest card, yet it was beaten so badly.

The opponent's strength was clearly far superior to theirs.

The only way to survive right now is for Lin Wan to escape immediately.

But Lin Wan shook her head.

Despite the excruciating pain in her ribs, she clung tightly to Zhang Qingzhe's arm.

"That [Escape Card] was originally yours—now that it's so dangerous, you're the one who should leave."

"What did you say? Didn't we just agree that you would listen to me?"

"But"

"But what? I'm your cousin! Listen to me, hurry up and go!"

Even after Zhang Qingzhe said that, Lin Wan still didn't let go.

Her voice trembled slightly, but her tone remained stubborn: "Let's try again together—if we join forces, maybe we still have a chance."

"You're injured like this, what can you still do?"

No matter how Zhang Qingzhe tried to persuade her, Lin Wan refused to run away alone.

She even tried to force the "detachment card" into Zhang Qingzhe's hand.

He transformed into a spineless wolf once again to buy him time.

Just then, a huge gray figure approached step by step with heavy steps.

Zhang Qingzhe looked up.

It turned out to be the same Deadpool member from before, whose body had swelled up beyond recognition.

It was as if an excessive amount of magical energy was flowing through his body, and a dangerous light emanated from beneath his skin.

This doesn't seem like enhancement; it's more like some kind of terrifying curse.

"Who just released the Steel-Bone Bull?!"

The man roared, his voice hoarse and violent, "I will absolutely—never forgive you!"

It turns out that he was being tossed around by the Steel-Bone Bull.

Unfortunately, he stepped on the card on the ground, and his blood soaked the card.

That was a Level 5 [Source of Curse] card.

Originally intended to curse the entire [Dragon Plague Zone], causing the monsters within to go berserk.

At this moment, he became the vessel for the [Source of the Curse].

After accumulating a massive amount of curse power, his body was on the verge of collapse.

Seeing this, Zhang Qingzhe calmed himself down slightly.

Although I don't understand the principle behind that card, judging from this guy's appearance...

It has clearly suffered a backlash and probably won't last much longer.

Let's go—

Zhang Qingzhe pulled Lin Wan up and, despite the pain, ran out of the forest.

"I...I can't run anymore—you walk by yourself." Lin Wan was afraid of slowing him down, so she tried to push Zhang Qingzhe's hand away.

Zhang Qingzhe put his arm around her waist.

"Just a few more minutes, that guy's about to self-destruct."

"But my ribs really hurt, and half of my body is almost numb—" Lin Wan was covered in cold sweat.

Given her strong-willed personality, she would never say such discouraging things unless she was about to give up.

Zhang Qingzhe sighed helplessly.

He simply picked her up horizontally and carefully pressed down on the artery under her armpit with one hand.

Although Lin Wan was in so much pain that her consciousness was blurred, she could still clearly feel a clear and gentle finger pressing on a sensitive curve of her skin.

The two ran forward together.

The Deadpool members behind him relentlessly pursued him, their bodies swelling and becoming increasingly terrifying, like a corpse that had been rotting for months.

He was howling wildly as he pushed down trees along the way.

Lin Wan leaned against Zhang Qingzhe's chest.

The boy's reliable embrace was so warm that she wanted to sleep inside it.

But she also knew that the situation was extremely dangerous and she had to make a choice.

With Zhang Qingzhe holding her like this, neither of them could escape.

"You'd better use the card and leave quickly—otherwise he'll catch up," Lin Wan suggested again.

Zhang Qingzhe glanced down at Lin Wan.

Seeing the girl's muscles twitching uncontrollably due to pain.

Even in her condition, she's still thinking about others.

That's truly remarkable!

Zhang Qingzhe gradually calmed down, thought through the current situation, and suddenly said, "Give me the [Wolf Transformation Card]."

Lin Wan was taken aback.

Although she didn't understand his intention, she still answered through gritted teeth, "In my wallet—the first one."

Zhang Qingzhe adjusted his posture, carried Lin Wan on his back, and casually supported her bottom.

Zhang Qingzhe paused for a moment, then pulled on the other end.

He then realized one thing!

So a girl's butt is supposed to be soft!

My sister's butt is so skinny!

It seems I need to feed her more meat.

Lin Wan only suffered a rib injury, but she could still feel her buttocks.

The sensation from each lift and drag made her cheeks flush red, almost to the point of bleeding.

Zhang Qingzhe reached out to Lin Wan's slender waist and pulled out the first card from her cardholder.

Night fell, and the fog had not yet dissipated.

The roars of monsters echoed from afar.

And that enormous cursed form, radiating a scorching, rotting aura, was slowly approaching the two of them. A thick fog, carrying a damp, chilling atmosphere, enveloped them, and Zhang Qingzhe abruptly channeled magical energy into the card.

The next second, a strange force entered his body through his fingertips.

His limbs twisted and deformed uncontrollably, his muscles bulged up, and his strength increased rapidly.

The skin surface took on a grayish-white sheen and was quickly covered by a hard exoskeleton.

His body instinctively bent down, his spine slightly arched, exuding a wild, animalistic tension.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Qingzhe had completely transformed into a lithe and agile spineless wolf.

"So that's how it feels! It's actually quite peculiar," Zhang Qingzhe exclaimed.

Lin Wan saw this scene and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

She was able to master shapeshifting skills in her freshman year of college thanks to her witch bloodline.

But to her surprise, Zhang Qingzhe mastered it even faster than she had.

"Hurry up."

As Zhang Qingzhe spoke, he carried Lin Wan on his back.

It spread its four giant claws and sprinted at full speed toward the checkpoint.

The guards at the checkpoint stood at the edge of the thick fog, where they could only hear the deathly silence of the fog moving around.

But at that moment, heavy footsteps suddenly approached, as if a huge monster was crashing out from the depths of the thick fog.

Everyone tensed up instantly and entered a state of combat readiness without prior agreement.

The card masters' guards quickly drew out the [Fireball Card], its surface glowing with a faint red light.

Ordinary soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, their knuckles turning white from the force.
