Chapter 479 -0479: Flathead (Third Update Request for Subscription)

Tianling Mountain, deep within the forest.

Su Lu seemed to be on a casual excursion, strolling leisurely around the wild. From time to time, he would pick some berries and leaves or hunt small animals.

After the first restoration of the Spirit Tide, the restrictions in his attribute list were lifted, and he immediately upgraded his Boxing Skill to LV4!

[Boxing Skill is now upgraded to LV4, you’ve gained an exclusive bonus—Root Strengthening!]

[Root Strengthening – Constitution +0.1, Strength +0.1!]

“Well… this seems even better than the Power of the Tiger in the Maga fighting Skill, as it permanently enhances attributes!”

“Could it be because Boxing Skill is a fusion of martial arts from this world and the essence of various fighting styles that I’ve understood?”

Su Lu didn’t dwell on that.

Anyway, after leveling up, he was now one of those folks who are exceptionally good at fighting among ordinary people. He might even fare better in combat than special forces soldiers.

The wilderness wasn’t excessively dangerous for now.

He had gathered this information from his ‘wild animal and plant survey’.

“After the first restoration of the Spirit Tide, the ‘mutations’ in various plants and animals were quite subtle. In other words, a seed has been planted to help them increase their wisdom. The real change will take place gradually and subtly… of course, some ‘mutant individuals’ may have more talent, and their changes should be noticeable by now.”

“I also need to collect some spiritual materials and at least satisfy the prerequisites for taking the office of [Hypnotist].”

“The power to change a world! It wasn’t provided by me. I just gave the world a direction, a seed … the real greatness lies in the spiritual support from the Ancient Spirit Realm.”

Su Lu was moved.

The brief contact with the main body made him aware that a stream of spirituality was constantly entering this world.

This was the world’s upgrade!

A world without magic was transforming into a transcendent world!

And all of this was orchestrated by Su Lu.

He was like a magnificent director, directing a script called ‘Dawn of the Gods’. The biggest investor was the Ancient Spirit Realm.

“Hmm?”

As he was strolling aimlessly, Su Lu suddenly heard a faint noise: “Is there someone?”

“Sister, what should we do?”

In the dense woods, Zuo Xiaojuan was on the verge of collapsing, “We shouldn’t have roamed indiscriminately yesterday… and after we realized we were lost, we should have stayed in one place and waited for help… I know all these things…”

“Should we have stayed there yesterday and waited for death?”

Near her, a girl with big bright eyes shook her head, “Who could have predicted such a thing?”

“Yeah… in the middle of the night, birds, insects, even wild boars, deer, even wolves came out… I thought there was going to be an earthquake.”

A young man with glasses next to them agreed.

There were four of them in total, students from East City University. Zuo Xiaochan and Zuo Xiaojuan were real sisters. They were joined by Li Zhi and Ma Ning. They decided to go on a hike together. Li Zhi was a local and knew a shortcut, and he volunteered to lead the team.

But they strayed from the main road unknowingly and coupled with the event last night, all four were lost deep in the mountains.

Being lost in the mountains is terrifying.

Being lost and hungry was a torment they were facing constantly.

“Now we can’t run around. We should stay in one place as much as possible and send out a distress signal,” said Zuo Xiaochan calmly.

“But… there’s no cell signal here,” Zuo Xiaojuan’s voice choked with sobs.

“If all else fails, how about we light a fire in an open area?” Ma Ning suggested.

“Sure, if you don’t mind starting a wildfire and burning us all to death,” Li Zhi countered.

“Well, we can overcome that, as long as we’re near a water source…” Zuo Xiaochan regained her spirits.

“Si….sister!”

Just then, her sleeve was tugged.

It was Zuo Xiaojuan next to her, pointing at a shadow amongst the bushes, “Snake! There’s a snake!”

For thousands of years, the fear of these creatures has been deeply ingrained in human genes.

Even the two strong men felt their legs shake at the sight of the triangular head: “Poison… it’s a poisonous snake!”

Getting bitten by a snake when you’re lost is almost certainly a death sentence!

Looking at its earthen yellow pattern and upturned nose, Li Zhi’s tone changed, “It’s a Five-step Dragon!”

The snake is called a dragon because it’s far more potent than an ordinary snake, ‘Five-step’ refers to a quick onset of its venom.

Although it’s a little exaggerated, such horror made everyone shiver.

The key issue was that the snake was neither leaving nor attacking; it just stared at them. The air seemed to freeze, making everyone suffocate and panic.

Hiss!

After a while, the snake started moving in a leisurely ‘S’ shaped path, drawing nearer to them.

“Run!”

Ma Ning cried out, overwhelmed by fear, and he turned to run. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

In the rugged mountain environment, with the hasty retreat, he immediately tripped and fell. His face was scraped by branches. It was just a superficial wound, but blood covered his face.

“You… you’re not even good at being a villain,” Li Zhi and Zuo Xiaojuan helped Ma Ning up and, with sticks in their hands, glued their eyes on the snake that was slithering closer.

Whoosh!

But at that moment, a black silhouette flashed.

A creature covered in black hair suddenly charged in, grabbed the Five-step Dragon, and began to chew it from the head, like eating sugarcane, quite joyfully.

“Hmm? Honeyskink?”

Li Zhi was surprised, “Why is there a honey badger here?”

“Honey badger my foot!”

The creature moved too fast just now, but now that it had stopped, everyone saw it clearly.

That was not a honey badger at all, but a giant rat!

“Yikes… I hate rats the most,” Zuo Xiaojuan stammered, her teeth clattering.

“Have you ever seen such a big rat in the mountains? Could it be a mutant?” Ma Ning was also startled but felt a little better.

After all, being bitten by a snake can be deadly, but a rat… should be better, right?

But looking at the rat’s biting ability, he was uncertain again.

Whistle!

While they were in a daze, the faint sound of an arrow whizzing through the air was heard.

“Squeak!”

The giant rat screamed as an arrow struck it, and it tried to flee.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Before they could react, they saw a young man in a hiking suit, holding a compound bow, running and shooting arrows, his movements extremely fluid, like an ancient archer.

The giant rat, hit by a few arrows, was slowing down. Eventually, it even turned around, its eyes glowing red, and rushed at the young man.

“Haha!”

Laughing, Su Lu tossed the bow aside, pulled out a dagger, and lunged forward.

Pff!

A flash of black light.

The dagger hit the giant rat right on target, making it fall to the ground, twitching.

“Are you… alright?”

Su Lu turned back to look at the lost youngsters and calmly asked.
