Although Li Changge didn't understand why the monster set them on fire, it was still good that they had escaped with their lives.
"Hey, stop playing dead, the monster's gone."
Li Changge squatted down and looked at the cracked, stiff body. He suddenly found it a little funny.
"I thought you were invincible, but it turns out there are creatures you're afraid of too." Li Changge poked the split, snow-white belly.
"Hey."
The crack gradually healed, and after cautiously glancing around to make sure everything was alright, it rolled over again.
"You look rather cute when you're pretending to be dead," Li Changge said with a smile.
"Bah, bah, bah."
He stared sharply at Li Changge with wide eyes, as if warning him not to mention the matter again.
"Hahaha, forget it, let's go back. With this monster here, we won't get away with this." Li Changge waved his hand and put the split back on his shoulder.
“Bah!!!”
Upon hearing Li Changge's words, Lie Kai seemed to be stimulated by something, let out a long cry, broke free from Li Changge's hands, and flew deeper into the forest.
"Crack open, what are you planning to do?"
Li Changge hurriedly reached out his hands, trying to grab the split body, but his hands slipped and the split disappeared.
Swish, swish, swish.
It split open and flew away, leaving Li Changge all alone. The wind rustled through the trees beside him, as if mocking him.
His own beast was not obeying his commands.
That's really tragic.
"Damn it, what is this guy trying to do?" Li Changge roared and planted the trident directly into the eucalyptus tree next to him.
puff!
The trident pierced through the eucalyptus tree as easily as cutting through mud.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Li Changge jumped around repeatedly, constantly venting his dissatisfaction.
"Is this bird out of its mind? What could possibly be worth taking such a risk for? Damn it, it almost died just now."
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
After venting his anger, Li Changge took deep breaths, trying to keep his mind calm.
He now has to make a choice.
Should they venture deeper into the forest to find the crack, or return to their raft?
Li Changge knew full well how terrifying that monster was; he was certain to die.
Although there are creatures like the Half-toothed Serpent in the background, at least there is still a chance to survive.
Li Changge stood rooted to the spot, his eyes darting around, trying to find a way to satisfy both sides.
"System, do you know what that monster was?"
"It's not very clear; its body is shrouded in mist, but judging from its shape, it's a leopard."
"A leopard?" Li Changge's heart sank.
In his memory, there was a powerful creature that was also in the form of a leopard.
That's the only creature left.
The extinct saber-toothed leopard!
These extinct creatures are usually very powerful; they could easily wipe out prehistoric creatures.
Li Changge finally understood why Liekai was as fierce as a tiger in front of a mammoth, but as timid as a cat in front of a saber-toothed leopard.
"Damn it, why is this kind of creature here?" Li Changge gritted his teeth.
If this is meant to increase the difficulty of this survival game, isn't it a bit too difficult?
Before even leaving the starting village, they encountered a boss.
Is he even alive?
"System, what do you think are the chances that I'll be able to come out after I go in?"
The system paused for a moment.
"Ten deaths without a chance of survival!"
hiss!
The system's words struck Li Changge like a bolt from the blue, leaving him completely dumbfounded.
"What the hell should I do?"
Li Changge paced back and forth on the outskirts of the forest, trying to find a way to satisfy both sides.
Unfortunately, it's a dead end no matter what.
"Damn it, I'm already in there. System, if I die in there, you'll be in big trouble too. I know you're incredibly powerful, and I won't ask for too much from you. Just save me and Liekai's lives when it matters, or you'll definitely die."
“…”
Regardless of whether the system responded or not, Li Changge had no time to say anything more. He drew his trident and rushed in.
Li Changge is a grateful person. Liekai saved him twice, so he couldn't just abandon Liekai like that.
Anyway, the worst outcome is just death.
Li Changge's figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
He actually went inside.
………
"Damn, where am I?" Li Changge saw that he was surrounded by darkness, so dark that he couldn't see his own hand in front of his face.
He panicked instantly.
"Calm down, you must calm down."
Li Changge took a deep breath and used his trident to probe the way little by little.
He hadn't even taken two steps.
珰!
With a soft click, the trident encountered resistance.
"Is there something ahead?"
Li Changge thrust the trident a few more times, only to find that he was hitting hard objects each time.
He felt relieved and cautiously stepped forward.
“This…is a wall?” Li Changge frowned.
"This place is a bit strange. The first time I came here, I also came up from a hillside. I guess this is another hillside."
"But from the outside, this island doesn't seem to have any very high mountains."
Even if you're confused now, there's nothing you can do.
Only by continuing to move forward can Li Changge possibly obtain the final answer.
"Ding, ding, ding."
The trident stuck into the wall, making a very sharp sound.
This made Li Changge even more vigilant, because this was the first material that could make the trident feel strained.
