Formless - Part 8

The original form of this guy turned out to be a gray rabbit…

Lu Ah-Cang looked at "him" squatting in her arms, bleeding profusely from his left shoulder.

Fortunately, the tree demon had taught her a very useful escape technique back then; otherwise, she and he would soon become victims to the blood silver bullets.

Walking in the woods under the cover of night, she lost her sense of direction, wandering aimlessly, with lingering fear in her heart. It seemed like no previous job had ever gone as disastrously as this one. She was seriously injured by the blood silver bullets, but luckily, she wasn't hit in the head; otherwise, even gods would have a hard time saving her. Now, Lu Ah-Cang herself didn't know where to go. She didn't even know where she was at the moment! Should she first find a place for her employer to heal his wounds? Or else, who should she approach for payment?

She felt the square white box in her pocket. It was his thing, which just dropped out as he transformed back to his original form. Although she still didn't know what was so mysterious about the blue diamond-shaped object that deserved him going to such great lengths, she would still keep it for him. After all, she has always been a demon with professional ethics.

As she was thinking, something vaguely swayed among the trees ahead. Before she could see clearly what was happening, the trees in front of her suddenly shook violently, and two ferocious-looking wild boar demons emerged from behind the trees, knocking her to the ground in just a couple of moves.

She didn't even have time to shout when a cold, hard metallic object touched her forehead. A white light flashed, her body went limp, and she lost all consciousness without even closing her eyes...
