They encountered cannibalistic humans on the island!
This unnamed primitive island was not a paradise at all, but a mad, bloodthirsty land.
As Lu Xiao slowly lowered the shielding bushes and leaves, he turned around and whispered to them,
"Things don’t look good. That Mike has had one of his legs chopped off, and he’s passed out."
"What!? His leg was chopped off! Why would they chop off his leg?"
The other two men widened their eyes and asked in lowered voices.
Lu Xiao didn’t respond. David clenched his fists, his eyes closed with a pained expression, and blurted out a single word:
As those words fell, suddenly one man slipped and fell to the ground with a loud thud, making quite a noise.
He was truly frightened by their conversation.
"Who’s there!" someone shouted from afar.
A dagger flew through the bushes, landing right next to the fallen man’s hand.
"It’s too late. You guys cover me; I’m going for the rescue,"
Lu Xiao said urgently.
Just as he spoke, people from the other side charged toward them.
David and the others had tranquilizer guns and daggers, but those tranquilizers were meant for animals.
As Lu Xiao went for the rescue, he was immediately engaged in combat with two men.
Both men were wild and robust in strength.
They were normal humans, but for some reason, they stayed on the island and didn’t leave, and even hunted other humans for food.
When one man rushed at him with a knife, Lu Xiao, with his agile skills, deftly severed the man’s hand tendons with a dagger, and then with a powerful shoulder throw, slammed him right onto a fire pit that was still burning and roasting meat.
The man let out a pained howl.
Another man roared and closed in on Lu Xiao for hand-to-hand combat. After a few moves, Lu Xiao quickly concluded the fight.
He landed a heavy punch on the man’s abdomen, lifting him upward, followed by a swift sweeping leg kick, accompanied by a sharp whistle through the air, and kicked him right in the temple, causing the man to black out and be sent flying.
Only then did Lu Xiao manage to help up the man who was still unconscious.
It was the same man from D country who had been at odds with him and antagonized him at every turn.
At this moment, it seemed that a surge of intense pain awakened the man. As he came to, he hurriedly covered his leg in agony, only to discover that his calf was gone.
Blood was streaming everywhere.
He screamed in panic and fear.
Lu Xiao quickly took off his shirt to wrap the man’s bloody stump and stop the bleeding, then hoisted him up to leave.
But the man seemed to have gone somewhat mad: "My leg, my leg..."
When he saw a shoe next to the burning bonfire, he fixed his gaze on a piece of roasted meat below the fire—
His eyes widened, his face drained of color, his forehead beaded with sweat, and his lips quivered uncontrollably.
David and the others shouted, and then immediately followed suit.
Lu Xiao carried the man away swiftly.
Everything that happened was beyond belief; no one expected that the missing person would be captured and treated as prey.
It now seemed that Inoue Kami had probably been one of their captives as well.
Only, she had been stored in that trap, left barely alive to die slowly, to ensure the freshness of her flesh. They never expected that she would be rescued.
