The animals were woken up by the shock, and they roared. Naomi immediately retreated to one side, holding the taser baton in her hand.
All the animals in the cage, now awake, stood up and stared at Naomi menacingly.
Naomi raised the baton in her hand and took a stance. She looked at me, and her voice trembled in fear. "Use the knife and protect yourself!"
I nodded slightly and started feeling frightened as well.
A few of the animals walked out of the cage, glaring at us with their sharp teeth exposed.
Subsequently, one of the dogs walked toward Naomi. It seemed to know that Naomi was the one who had woken it up with the taser.
My heart leaped into my throat. I stared at Naomi anxiously and uttered, "Naomi, what should I do?"
She held the taser and said, "Arianna, I told you, we are gambling with our lives, so I have no idea what we should do next!"
Looking at how the animals were heading towards me, my whole body began to tremble. I huddled up against the wall and stuck closely to it. I was so scared that my entire body was shaking. I held the knife in my hand and pointed it at them, but my body kept retreating.
The ferocious dog roared, staring straight at me. Naomi said they had just been fed, and it was most likely that they wouldn't want to eat us, but it didn't mean they wouldn't attack us.
Perhaps because I was holding a knife, one of them pounced at me. I was too scared to resist. I screamed.
All of a sudden, I heard the sound of a gunshot. In a split second, the animal that had pounced towards me collapsed onto the floor. It struggled for a moment, then remained motionless.
Before I could understand what was going on, I discovered that all of the animals had needles in their neck, and it was most likely that they had been put under sedation.
"Misses, you shouldn't provoke them!" Hodge was standing at the door with a few bodyguards, and looked at us with a cold expression.
Naomi and I nodded. Naomi looked at Hodge and said, "Hodge, how is Sebastian? Has he woken up? How is he? Can I go see him?"
