"Female, it's dangerous in the jungle, don't wander off."
The beastman that followed transformed from human form into a lion. Its head was broad and round, and its piercing eyes shone with a sharp and majestic light. Its body was more than twice the size of an ordinary lion.
Seeing that Guo Xiaoxiao ignored him and fled into the distance, the massive lion roared, its roar echoing throughout the forest. Water droplets trembled from its golden curls as it strode off and chased after Guo Xiaoxiao.
Guo Xiaoxiao looked back, tears welling up in her eyes. "I didn't want to run away either," she thought. "The system's mission was that I couldn't speak to or contact any male orcs for three days. I had no choice but to flee. I don't know where I am now. The rugged mountain paths are muddy and wet, making it impossible to move quickly."
At this moment, the system emitted a sound.
"Host, your two-wheel drive probably can't outrun his four-wheel drive. I'll give you a buff: invisibility."
"ah??"
This system is terrible! It gives me these weird tasks. I want to go back to a day ago...
I've brought everything I was supposed to, nothing was forgotten. This is my first time going abroad, and to be honest, I'm a little nervous.
I opened my phone and watched a short video. It showed my destination: the Serengeti in Africa. It was a chance to get up close to wild tigers, hyenas, and hippos—a truly harmonious relationship between humans and nature.
...
It was such a wonderful day. According to my plan, I had already seen lions and tigers in the Serengeti, and if I had enough time, I would also climb Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa.
What's going on? Where am I?
Guo Xiaoxiao, carrying a heavy backpack and dragging a suitcase, exclaimed to the heavens in exasperation, "I was clearly at the boarding gate! How did I end up in this godforsaken, primeval jungle in the blink of an eye?"
Guo Xiaoxiao had never seen such tall trees before.
The strange, towering plants and the bizarre, dazzling flowers all seemed so unusual. Deep in the mountains, ancient trees reached for the sky, blocking out the sun, and from time to time, a piercing cry could be heard. The sound was not human; it sounded like the lament of an unknown wild beast.
Guo Xiaoxiao scratched her head, not having time to be scared, and looked around in confusion. Could it be the legendary amnesia? Was she already in the Serengeti?
Ding... "System is now open"
A voice echoed in Guo Xiaoxiao's mind: Who, who is speaking?
"Hello host, congratulations on your transmigration."
"What?!" Guo Xiaoxiao pulled her suitcase and turned around in a circle, only to find no one there, just the occasional chirping sounds coming from the jungle.
"Would you like a tutorial or would you like to activate free mode?"
The voice in her head was exceptionally clear. Guo Xiaoxiao realized the problem was serious. She was originally a writer of system-based novels; could it be that she had reached the realm of oneness with heaven and man?!
"Would you like to ask again if I need a tutorial or to activate free mode?"
Although she was completely bewildered and didn't understand the situation, after a moment's pause, she chose to respond to the "system" in her mind.
"New User Guide"
"Okay, generating world background and location, ding... Hello host, I am your system, Tie Da. You are in the northwestern part of the Beast Continent, on the edge of the Lunar Forest. The world you have traveled to is a beastman world..."
"etc"
"Um?"
Guo Xiaoxiao quickly guessed, "Could it be?" She asked cautiously.
"Did I really time travel?"
"Yes, host, you have indeed transmigrated."
The voice in Guo Xiaoxiao's mind was crystal clear, not at all like a figment of her imagination. She clutched her chest and said, somewhat excitedly.
Okay, you can continue.
"The world of beastmen is different from that of humans on Earth. They can easily transform into animals, and can be called half-beastmen or beastmen. They are divided into males and females..."
Upon hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao interrupted the system and responded in a serious tone.
"Yes, is it possible for animals to transform into humans, where the males are so handsome they're outrageously handsome, and the females are so ugly they're downright unattractive, and several males feast and drink well while revolving around one female?"
The system remained silent for a moment.
"Yes"
"Wow!!!"
"Holy crap, here it comes!" Guo Xiaoxiao shouted, raising her arms high. "From now on, I'll have to find a dozen men to serve me every day!"
"Um, host, do you still need me to explain the world background to you?"
"If I were to transmigrate to a beast world, the system would be an expert," Guo Xiaoxiao thought to herself.
"I can guess the background even without you telling me. It's a beast-themed novel; I've read dozens of them, like 'Farming and Having Babies' and 'My Beast Husband is So Cute.' You don't need an introduction. Aren't you a system? I happen to be an author who writes system novels too. See, what a coincidence!"
The system remained silent for a while.
"You seem quite open-minded. Alright then, let's start with free mode so you can familiarize yourself with the environment. A word of caution: the jungle is dangerous, please be careful."
Freedom is freedom, but Guo Xiaoxiao knew the jungle was dangerous. She might run into a spider bigger than she imagined, or a wild animal might attack her. With only two legs, and being a pitiful, helpless female, she would only become food if caught. For safety's sake, she decided to stay put. As she took her sun-protective clothing out of her suitcase, she muttered to herself...
"Sit down for a bit. Anyway, according to the routine, soon some lion, tiger, snake, or something that can turn into a human will come and take me back."
Guo Xiaoxiao thought optimistically, but as the minutes passed, not a single wild animal, let alone a male, appeared.
