Grawl!!!!~

The strange crocodile-looking creatures growled like there was no tomorrow.

And Donghai didn't need a beast translator to understand their current emotions.

F***!

He just had to fall into their den, didn't he? '

As expected of my dumb luck.'

He thought they were only angry that he barged into their den. But that wasn't the case.

Their main cause of rage was the massive ever fruit in his hands. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

They had been waiting for it to bloom and ripen before plucking it out. Maybe for weeks and weeks, they had been watching nonstop. But after a few observations, perhaps they estimated it would be blooming now.

After all, they had never seen such a fruit before. Their knowledge of it was limited, relying only on its appearance and the strange smell and aura it gave off.

When it was not fully ripened, it didn't look silvery but had purple skin.

It was coincidental that Donghai had dropped into this place when the fruit began ripening to its fullest potential.

It can also be said that the ripening effect was indirectly the culprit that caused the giant tree roots above the surface.

The fruit's roots were touching the giant tree far down below, causing it to move unexpectedly.

This was as they say... A fruiticious encounter.

The creatures were livid, staring at the intruder above.

'Human, how dare you?'

.

Even when leaving their nest, a few would stay guard at the pond's outer entrances, keeping the place safe while the others went out to either hunt, find food, etc.

In the nest, there were no babies or pregnant creatures yet. So as a rule in the animal kingdom, everyone went out.

It's only been a month and a half since the land here started changing into what it currently was.

So even they as beasts needed to properly understand their new surroundings.

Today, they had done what they typically did for the last few weeks, repeating the same routine that now worked for them.

But who would've known today's situation would be different?

Hehehehehe~

The 2-railed crocodiles smirked dangerously at their new prey.

And with incredible speed, they began moving towards the waterfall like possessed beings.

Run!

Donghai felt his scalp tingle.

Would crocodiles be able to climb such heights?

Scientifically, they shouldn't. However, recalling all the strangeness he had witnessed since he git here, he dared not risk it.

'Secure the fruit.'

He placed the silver fruit inside his clothes and quickly used the roots to continue climbing.

But why did he feel he was acting like the boy in the Story Jack and the Beanstalk.

(-_-)

He was stealing... Right?

Bah!... Until plucked, this fruit belonged to no one! In this case, it was finders keepers!

Today, Donghai was feeling shameless.

Grawww!!~

The sounds of death reminded him that, Ah yes... He seemed to be hunted down by the owners of the den.

Where to go? Where to go?

If he tricked them before somehow managing to run back into the pond at the center of the space, do you think he would be able to outswim these creatures?

Additionally, how long would he need to hold his breath before connecting and reaching the pink waters outside?

.

Earlier, he was willing to jump in and test how long he could manage, planning to do various trials and errors.

But now, danger was underway, and he only had one shot to flee the scene safely.

'I have to move faster!'

As if infected with adrenaline, Donghai began springing and jumping upwards like a spider.

'Got you!!'

His heart was still living maniacally after grabbing into the root above.

The vertical distances between the roots were growing larger, and he could no longer do a single ascend anymore.

As soon as he pulled himself up, he began preparing for his next jump.

~Pah!

The root broke off, and Donghai's heart sank into his belly.

He watched himself in slow motion, already envisioning what will happen to him if he truly fell into the fathering of crocs at the bottom.

Luckily, his brain was still at work, and he was quick to hold onto another root.

Thang!

Success!

The root was sturdy enough to carry his weight. But Donghai had no time to celebrate.

The closer the Crocs got, the longer their claws grew. And something told him they would be using this to climb upwards too.

'No time!'

Pang! Pang! Pang!

He began his spider jumps against the waterfall's current. This time, he was more careful than ever... Especially when realizing that the roots in the upper regions got brittle because of the so-called heavy water pressure at the top.

'If I had a dagger or even rock climbing picks, I wouldn't be struggling this much.'

Donghai was starting to miss how easy it was to use modern technology.

If he had a few bullets and grenades on him, just think of how easy it would've been to take out the enemy?

Today's lesson had also taught him just how self-reliant he was on modern weaponry.

Sure enough, to start his journey here, one's primary reliance and focus were on raw strength and intelligence.

.

1, 2, 3...

Pang!

In no time, he was already at the top, but this didn't ease his fear.

He didn't need to look behind to know that these Blue crocs were gaining on him at an incredulous speed.

Teaching the top, he immediately began rallying through the small cervix as fast as he could.

'Fortunately, it's just right to fit a human body through.'

He felt like a rat in a sewer pipe. The water pressure kept pushing him back, but thanks to the narrow space, he could now plant his feet into the walls and the ground to force his way through.

And sure enough, only 4 out of the 13 Crocs could pass through the space. These were probably the biggest of the bunch.

'Com'on! Com'on! Com'on!'

Donghai rotted his teeth so much they began to tingle from pressure.
