After tossing away the snake’s corpse, he felt his entire left arm turn numb.
His face instantly turned pale and his countenance, terrible.
Thankfully, he recognized this type of snake.
It was a type of venomous snake found in South America, and it wasn’t lethally poisonous. But its venomous fluid would cause that bitten part of the body to turn numb and stiff.
He was even more thankful for the fact that the snake had bitten his left arm and not his gun-wielding right arm.
Or else he wouldn’t be able to participate in this competition any longer.
Such snakes typically moved in groups.
Yin Ruoyi didn’t dare to stay a second longer and immediately left.
Gasps erupted among the audience in the viewing room.
Chairman Song and Nian Chusheng were astounded and terrified.
“How did Ruoyi get injured?”
“He’s injured! We are finished!”
Chairman Song’s face turned pale instantaneously.
“It’s not the time to be speaking about this now. Hurry up and get the rescue team to send someone. That snake looks like it’s poisonous!”
Nian Chusheng got anxious, and next to him the patrolling guard added, “Commander, this is a type of venomous snake found in South America. It’s very slim and long and weak. Its venom will only cause a period of numbness in humans and won’t lead to deaths.”
“Even if it won’t lead to deaths, it’s still something major. We’ve got to take precautions just in case…”
Before Nian Chusheng finished his sentence, he abruptly stopped.
If it wasn’t a fatal wound, then if Yin Ruoyi didn’t request help, then according to the rules, the rescue team wouldn’t send anyone in.
Although Chairman Song was flustered inwardly, he maintained the calm attitude typical of China and tried not to let others see his panic.
In a hushed voice, he instructed the patrolling guard, “Go, report this to Elder Gong. Also, inform the international rescue team and see what they have to say about this.”
“Yes!”
After the patrolling guard left, Chairman Song and Nian Chusheng saw ambiguous gazes cast over by several officials from the US.
They seemed to be gloating over their misfortune.
After all, they were crushing the US team who was used to getting number one, and the US officials had been feeling slight displeasure, to begin with.
Now, seeing Yin Ruoyi get into an accident, they barely maintained the dignified state of a country’s representatives, but perhaps inwardly their hearts were blooming with joy.
The atmosphere turned subtle. Yin Ruoyi’s injury meant that his battle prowess would be weakened. That was as good as to say that the remaining member of the China team had to fight on her own.
Inevitably, they gloated over their opponent’s misfortune. At least this year, China put up a powerful performance, and if there was a bit of an accident…
At least some countries would then have hopes of squeezing their ways into the top three.
Huo Yingcheng let out a gasp after seeing Yin Ruoyi get injured. “Isn’t China’s team in a perilous state now? Only Qingjiu is left to fight.”
Helian Niancheng said nonchalantly, “Isn’t it also an individual show by Cruff on the US side?”
‘Cough.’
Huo Yingcheng let out a dry cough. “From the sounds of it, you have an extremely high view of your wife. Right now, Yin Ruoyi’s score isn’t low either. If he were to get eliminated, China would be in great danger.”
“He won’t…”
Helian Niancheng replied simply, but Huo Yingcheng found it especially strange.
“Why not? Although such venomous snakes aren’t lethal, this must certainly affect him greatly. If he encounters Cruff, he will be in great danger.”
“Then let’s hope he won’t run into Cruff.”
These words made Huo Yingcheng cast a sideways glance at his major-general. He had a feeling that there was a hidden meaning behind his major-general’s words.
On the screen, Yin Ruoyi was seen walking towards the edge of the forest.
Perhaps knowing that his injury would severely affect his movements, he was planning to find a safe place to stay in for the rest of the competition.
