The last few centimeters took more than ten seconds to move.
We've encountered it! Select to capture.
The entire giant snake finally vanished in a radiant glow.
Hint: Capture successful. Obtain material: female anaconda.
...
My body felt like I had just taken a shower; I was completely soaked in sweat and felt a bit weak.
Wu You knew he needed to find a place to rest; his current state was not suitable for immediate exploration.
Now, in this jungle, the only thing that gives Wu You a relative sense of security is the trees.
On a wild fruit tree a dozen meters away from the site where the giant python was captured, Wu You drank half a bottle of sports drink, ate an energy bar and a small piece of compressed biscuit, and comfortably lay down on the tree trunk to rest.
Having just experienced the danger, I now feel that being eight or nine meters off the ground is nothing. I'm half-lying on a branch about the width of a hand, with my left leg swinging back and forth in the air.
This shows that people's adaptability is far stronger than they imagine.
The backpack was hanging on a tree branch three meters off the ground. Because it was heavy and bulky, Wu You didn't lift it to where he was.
In the dense forest, it was hard to tell whether it was morning or afternoon at Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.
I don't want to waste time getting more rest, otherwise it will be more dangerous after dark. It's best to get everything done before dark.
...
About an hour later, Wu You struggled forward, his steps uneven and uneven.
A torrential downpour was falling from the sky, pattering against the vegetation in the jungle, making it seem as if only this one sound remained in the entire forest.
Damn it, I didn't bring a raincoat, that's ridiculous. This jacket I'm wearing is supposed to be waterproof, but I still feel sticky.
He cursed inwardly, but his body kept walking.
Rain in the jungle reduces visibility, but it has its advantages; it seems that predators also seek shelter from the rain.
But at this moment, the gear that originally weighed less than 20 pounds felt like it weighed 50 pounds, and Wu You wished he could throw away the backpack.
As you follow the route indicated by the system navigation, the exploration area on the 3D map gradually expands.
Marching towards the target, the giant lizard, shouting the slogan in my heart.
But after another half hour, Wu You felt like he was exhausted.
No, that's an insult to dogs. They should be as tired as weeds, or the kind that's been stepped on.
It seems the distance on the system's 3D map hasn't shortened at all, upon closer inspection.
Holy crap, is this some kind of joke? The little light is actually moving! No wonder I'm exhausted and still haven't gotten close.
After all, not all animals are as slow as pythons, and not all animals dislike rainy days.
The giant water lizard happens to possess the two advantages that Wu You hates most right now.
What's the point of all this? Let's find somewhere to take shelter from the rain!
...
Beneath a boulder that protrudes nearly two meters, Wu You huddled, clutching his backpack and trembling.
My clothes were completely soaked, and I lost a lot of body heat. As soon as I stopped, I felt cold all over. I felt a little better after eating some fast food.
Not far ahead, you can see countless streams flowing from high places down into low-lying areas, then rushing into the distance; there must be a forest river there.
Looking at the rain and the unfamiliar surroundings, Wu You felt a sense of loneliness, as if he had been forgotten by the world.
The rain continued for another half hour, then disappeared just as suddenly as it had come.
Wu You sat quietly for two minutes to make sure the rain had completely stopped.
He was just about to get up when he suddenly stopped moving.
A series of pattering sounds of claws stepping on the mud came from one side.
Wu You had already spotted the other party. It was a brown bear with half of its body just emerging from the bushes. Its enormous size was simply despair-inducing. It kept sniffing something.
Then it suddenly discovered Wu You.
The man and the bear stared at each other from a distance of less than 20 meters.
The brown bear has a large scar on its cheek near its left eye, which makes its left eye only half the size of its right eye when it is open. This is likely an old wound from fighting with other wild animals.
Wu You's heart rate exceeded 180, and he caught a glimpse of a corner of the ground in his peripheral vision.
Damn! I'm such an idiot, a chocolate wrapper!
Wu You had completely underestimated the bear's craving for sweets. This brown bear had likely already found its way here using its incredible sense of smell, even before the rain had completely stopped.
Just as Wu You was wondering what to do.
With a "roar~"
The bear moved and ran straight towards Wu You.
Without a moment's hesitation, he kicked away the various food packaging bags under his feet, abandoned his backpack, and burst into the forest at his fastest speed.
"I hope the dessert packaging can get some more time!" Wu You prayed silently.
The vegetation in the forest rushed past, and the branches and vines blocking the way stung my skin, but at this moment I couldn't care about anything else, there was only one word: escape.
The crackling sounds of impacts coming from behind continued to approach, showing that the bear had no intention of letting Wu You go.
Dude, all the chocolates are in your backpack, why don't you look for them?
But no matter how much he lamented in his heart, the distance between the brown bear and Wu You continued to shrink.
During the escape, suddenly the view opened up before them, and they left the dense forest and arrived at a river in the forest.
"Roar~" came the roar of the bear.
Wu You almost instinctively used the momentum to leap into the air.
A tearing sound came from the clothes behind me.
With a slight burning sensation on his back, Wu You jumped into the river with a "plop".
The brown bear did not give up. After hesitating for a moment, it also jumped into the water.
"Roar, roar~" The bear's roar was so close.
But soon, the brown bear desperately swam towards the riverbank.
A torrential rain had just fallen in the jungle, and all the streams had converged into the river. The current was so swift that even brown bears had to take refuge.
Struggling to stay afloat in the water, Wu You breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the bear had stopped chasing him.
The brown bear roared unwillingly on the bank and chased the bear straight along the river for several hundred meters before giving up. Wu You will never forget the scar on its eye.
However, his condition did not improve; he no longer had the strength to break free from the swift current and was carried directly downstream.
The dense forests on both sides of the river rushed past faster and faster, and the sound of the water ahead grew louder and louder.
Wu You was almost exhausted. Although he could only see the splashing water, he knew that the waterfall was just ahead.
In the final moment before being swept out of the waterfall, Wu You mustered all his strength and roared wildly towards the sky.
"Just you wait! I will never let you get away with this!!"
The sound at that moment was inexplicably as loud as a great bell.
"Thump."
The sound of a heavy object hitting the water was drowned out by the powerful impact of the waterfall.
...
The waterfall was over ten meters high, and Wu You lost consciousness the moment he entered the water.
My body bounced and swayed along the riverbed for a while before being lifted to the surface face up by its own buoyancy.
Attracted by the trickle of blood seeping from Wu You's back, several slender black shadows slowly swam out of the crevice in the river and headed towards Wu You.
But they all vanished into light the moment they touched Wu You.
Even after he fainted, Wu You's intense will to live kept him subconsciously roaring and scrambling to catch any animal that touched his body.
