the next day...
Nan Chen woke up very early, and the first thing she did after waking up was to look at Wang Lan.
But they found that Wang Lan was still sleeping, and even sleeping very soundly. If you listened carefully, you could even hear Wang Lan snoring softly.
As for Arken...
It smelled even sweeter, and there were even snot lanterns coming out of his nose. His belly was round and full, obviously because he ate too much last night.
Nan Chen glanced at them helplessly and walked straight to Wang Lan. When she reached Wang Lan's side, before she could even speak, Wang Lan opened her eyes and looked at her.
"Huh? You're awake?"
Wang Lan frowned and said, "I heard your footsteps. I just woke up."
After saying that, Wang Lan stood up, stretched, and said to Nan Chen, "Wake Aken up, we should get moving."
Nan Chen was quite straightforward; he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at Aken. The stone hit Aken's snot lantern with perfect accuracy, making a crisp "smack".
Akhen immediately jumped up.
"What's wrong? What happened? What's going on?"
Nan Chen ignored him, glanced at Wang Lan who was still stretching, and said, "Are you... are you alright?"
Wang Lan smiled and nodded, "I'm fine, nothing's wrong."
Indeed, nothing happened.
In the days since his illness, Wang Lan felt that although he had been in a coma, it was in this hazy state that he learned many things, but at the same time became even more confused.
But this also left Wang Lan even more bewildered.
So he went to bed early yesterday.
They were not fixated on going out, nor were they fixated on seeing Sun Muchen.
Just get some rest, calm down, and figure everything out.
Then...
He still wanted to go out.
For some reason, Wang Lan felt a strange sense of mission upon waking up this time. Perhaps it was because the system had completely integrated with him, which caused a significant change in his almost pathological protective instincts towards Sun Muchen.
At this moment, Wang Lan... wants to save the world!
He wants to end this anomaly!
Of course... it seems that only this method can ensure Sun Muchen's absolute safety.
Before that, Sun Muchen would not encounter any major danger.
Because Sun Muchen also has a chip in his brain made from the source of the mutation, which is the meteorite.
It was precisely because of that chip that Sun Muchen was luckier than most people from a young age, immune to all poisons, and able to turn misfortune into good fortune.
Wang Lan went to the river to wash his face, then picked up the machete he had found in the indigenous tribe and swung it a few times with impressive skill. The blade was sharp, and it moved with great speed and grace. It was also very easy to handle and could certainly be called a divine weapon.
In particular, this knife has been stained with countless lives, yet it has not shown any signs of dulling.
"We are ready!"
Behind them, the voices of Aken and Nanchen could be heard.
Wang Lan turned around and saw that Aken had grown to be five meters tall, and somehow seemed to be much stronger than before. Nan Chen was standing next to Aken, holding the dagger in his hand.
"If we're ready, let's go!"
Wang Lan spoke to the person and the frog.
Aken nodded, and a puddle of water suddenly appeared at his feet. The water then spread out, and Aken stuck out his tongue. He first rolled Nan Chen into his mouth, and then looked at Wang Lan.
Wang Lan smiled slightly, lightly touched the ground with his foot, and jumped towards Aken. Aken's tongue then shot out, wrapped around Wang Lan's waist, and swallowed him whole.
At this moment, a faint blue light appeared on Arken's body. He jumped up and landed in the water.
Wang Lan and Nan Chen only heard a "plop" sound, and then a ray of light suddenly appeared before their eyes. They were then pushed away by an external force.
Then they found themselves standing on the ground.
“You’ve improved!” Wang Lan said, turning to Aken.
"Of course!" Arken patted his belly, looking smug, and said, "My improvement isn't just limited to my diving skills!"
"Then we'll wait and see!" Wang Lan said, raising an eyebrow at Aken.
Then they turned around and looked around. They saw that this was not the Wind Territory. They were still in the Rainforest Territory. In front of them was a dragon pit that looked exactly like the one in the Wind Territory. However, the dragon pit here was surrounded by lush green grass and many thick trees growing on the stone walls near the pit.
Wang Lan withdrew his gaze and turned to Aken, saying, "This is a water dragon, right? What are the abilities of a water dragon again?"
“It’s recovery!” Arken said. “The water dragon’s main ability is self-healing, and it’s extremely powerful!”
“Alright, let’s finish this quickly!” Wang Lan said, “I’ll take the lead in the attack, and you, Aken, will be responsible for tanking the damage. If I’m not mistaken, since he’s a water dragon, he must be able to control water just like a wind dragon can control the wind. In that case, we need to be extra careful. Nan Chen, you will be the support and wait for the right opportunity to strike.”
“Yes,” Nan Chen nodded.
But then Wang Lan said again, "Be careful, be sure to be safe."
Nan Chen was stunned for a moment, then replied, "You too, you must be extra careful."
As soon as the words were spoken, a column of water suddenly appeared from the dragon pit and shot into the sky.
