Chapter 66 Encountering a Faction Mission Again, Fighting Alone
Chu Ge searched online for over an hour but couldn't find any pictures of Big Hair.
He had no choice but to give up.
He sighed, realizing that Big Hair truly wasn't in this world.
It was also possible that the documentary filmed by the photography team hadn't been uploaded to the internet.
Filled with a heavy heart, he stood up and walked to the wardrobe, picked out a set of clothes, and then headed to the bathroom to take a shower.
Chu Feiqiang lay on the sofa watching TV, while Han Yujuan was playing mahjong on her phone.
A few days ago, Chu Yingying had returned to school; with the Black Blind shot dead, the school naturally wouldn't extend the holiday for too long.
Chu Feiqiang caught a glimpse of Chu Ge's figure and slightly furrowed his brow.
"How come this kid seems a bit more robust?"
He muttered to himself but didn't think much of it, perhaps because he was too tired and having illusions.
After showering, Chu Ge had Han Yujuan help him change his bed linens.
Han Yujuan held the dirty sheets and left, gently closing the bedroom door behind her.
She approached the sofa and whispered, "Honey, don't you think something's off with Xiao Ge?"
Chu Feiqiang kept his eyes on the TV screen and casually replied, "Hasn't he been acting off for these past few months?"
Han Yujuan shot him a look and then carried the bedding to the bathroom.
Tomorrow was Sunday, and Chu Ge didn't have to go to school; he could sleep in.
That night, he dreamed he was leading Big Hair and a pride of lions across the savannah, invincible in battle, victorious in every fight.
A Siberian Tiger suddenly invaded the plains, hunting all over, and many strong predators were defeated by its claws and fangs.
As the king of the plains, Chu Ge prepared to challenge this Siberian Tiger.
At the moment of the decisive battle, the Siberian Tiger suddenly transformed into the Black Blind, with a Pitbull appearing behind it, startling him so much that his dream shattered and he abruptly opened his eyes.
Sunlight streamed in from outside the window, and he took a deep breath, glancing at the wall.
It was now half past eleven.
Lunch would be soon.
He rubbed his eyes and began to get out of bed.
After washing up, Han Yujuan had already prepared lunch.
Chu Feiqiang had things to do and had gone out, leaving just the two of them at home.
"You eat first, I'll make some soup."
Han Yujuan's voice came from the kitchen.
Chu Ge took two bowls to serve himself rice.
After a while, Han Yujuan brought over the radish and pork rib soup to the table.

As she ladled soup for Chu Ge, she asked, "Xiao Ge, did you not sleep well? There's so much red in your eyes."
She appeared calm but was inwardly alarmed.
Chu Ge, who had just returned from the wild, still bore the gaze of a wild beast.
He couldn't adjust back in such a short period of time.
Chu Ge smiled warmly and said, "Yeah, there's been a lot of homework, so I went to sleep late."
Han Yujuan felt sorry for him and comforted, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, college doesn't define the height of one's life, relax, it doesn't matter if your exams don't go well, as long as you've tried your best."
Chu Ge nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't disappoint you. This afternoon, I want to study in my room, so you don't need to worry about me."
Han Yujuan hesitated and asked, "You're not planning to run away again, are you?"
Chu Ge, feeling helpless, replied, "If I'm ever going to leave, I'll definitely tell you in advance. When have I ever gotten into trouble from being young till now? Don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Han Yujuan had no choice but to let it be.
After lunch, Chu Ge locked himself in his room.
He entered the Survival House and started training his new lion body.
He was now larger than an adult lioness, with a mane about ten centimeters long, his limbs were muscular, regal, and commanding.
His physical fitness had greatly improved, though his speed had decreased slightly compared to before.
With increased weight, speed naturally slowed down.
Before the next Survival Competition arrived, he had to get used to his current body.
If he encountered the Black Blind again, he was confident that he could fight it.
…
Early the next day, Chu Ge went off to school.
He tried to adjust his state but still made his classmates feel an ominous chill, especially with his gaze, which even made the teachers a bit scared during class.
Even the usually talkative deskmate, Chen Xunjie, did not dare to strike up a conversation with him.
Chu Ge was quite helpless, but there was nothing he could do.
Changing one's aura was difficult and took time to cultivate.
All he could do was try not to look up.
On that day, Chu Ge felt very uncomfortable, and the same was true for his classmates and teachers.
Whenever he went to the restroom, the class immediately started discussing him.
During this time, Tang Xuejia passed him a note, asking what was wrong with him.
He leaned forward and whispered to her back, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
His words made Tang Xuejia's skin crawl with unease and she nodded unnaturally.
Chu Ge couldn't help but laugh.
On the way home after school, he called Gao Fei to ask if the big shot had finished his city battle.
Gao Fei replied helplessly, "Brother, I have to let you down again. The big shot was severely defeated in the city battle and is in a bad mood. Wait a bit longer, okay? Are you short of money? Do you need me to lend you some first?"
Chu Ge was not angry, as failure in the Survival Arena was quite normal. If he were the one who failed a mission, he certainly would not want to see anyone either.
The two chatted for a while, and Gao Fei, unusually, did not pester him as it seemed he had something urgent to deal with.
Life returned to normal.
Having gotten used to hunting for food every day, Chu Ge was still adjusting to the change.
Fortunately, he could still eat cooked food and did not resort to rummaging through the fridge for raw meat.
…
Five days before the Survival Competition, Chu Ge received a prompt that his mission was about to start, but he couldn't learn anything about the environment or the specific rules.
Chu Ge was not alarmed, as he was now very strong and not the least bit nervous.
He was even looking forward to it starting soon.
He would rampage!
Show off the king of the grasslands' dominance!
In the remaining five days, he still allocated time for training and studying, noticing that his physical condition continued to strengthen slowly, and so did his memory, making learning even easier.
Perhaps this was the advantage of awakening his Survival Talent?
The last night.
Chu Ge called Han Yujuan to the kitchen and told her he would be away for a few days.
Han Yujuan immediately panicked, grabbing his arm anxiously, "Xiao Ge, you..."
"Mom, I am informing you in advance to show my respect for you, don't worry, I won't be in any trouble," Chu Ge said earnestly.
He couldn't explain much, only appeal to her emotions.
Han Yujuan was at a loss.
Chu Ge waved his hand and smiled, "Anyway, I am prepared to leave. You guys shouldn't call the police again; it looks bad. Next time on the exam, my grades will definitely be better."
After speaking, he returned to his bedroom.
Han Yujuan hurried back to her room to discuss the matter with Chu Feiqiang.
Chu Feiqiang became furious, ready to confront Chu Ge, but she stopped him.
After a long discussion, the couple decided to lock Chu Ge's bedroom from the outside so that he could not leave.
As for climbing out the window, that was impossible; they did not live on the first or second floor.
…
The next morning at five-thirty, Chu Ge woke up.
He lay in bed, waiting for the beginning of the Survival Competition.
Around six-forty, the indifferent female voice arrived as scheduled:
"This Survival Challenge Task is a faction-based Survival Competition!"
"There are twenty-six Survivors participating in this faction-based Survival Competition, divided into three factions. One faction has only one person who will randomly appear in one of the other two factions which each have two undercover members!"
"The location for this faction-based Survival Arena is Shennongjia. The competition lasts for 7 days, and leaving the boundaries of Shennongjia counts as a failure. Killing an enemy faction's Survivor will earn 200 Survival Points, but mistakenly killing your own faction's undercover will result in a deduction of 400 Survival Points!"
"At the end of the competition, if no enemies have been killed, an additional 400 Survival Points will be deducted."
"The faction-based Survival Competition officially begins now!"
As the voice finished, the familiar sensation of dizziness came, and Chu Ge disappeared within his bedroom.
