Chapter 69: Chapter 69 Start of Killing Enemies, Mysterious Creature
"Simba?"
Chu Ge blinked in surprise. The turtle still had the nerve to crack jokes even when it fell into the crocodile's mouth—truly a fearless artist.
He immediately charged forward, battling the saltwater crocodile.
Even if his biting force was strong, he couldn't possibly bite through the crocodile's armored hide, but the crocodile's belly was a weak point, devoid of thick armor.
Chu Ge just needed to figure out a way to flip the saltwater crocodile over, and he could kill the beast!
The saltwater crocodile had bitten the Sulcata tortoise, but it couldn't immediately crush its shell. It wanted to spit it out but couldn't; after all, its tongue wasn't that hard.
Its mouth was jammed.
Chu Ge began to push with all his might.
The saltwater crocodile wasn't stupid; it twisted its massive body frantically, trying to knock Chu Ge away.
Although it was huge, Chu Ge's strength was not small either.
Chu Ge not only had a physique built with muscles but had also gone through muscle strengthening, capable of withstanding its hits.
"Hahaha! Rekton! Are you scared!"
The Sulcata tortoise shouted excitedly, infuriating the saltwater crocodile whose rage shot up rapidly.
Rekton?
Was that the crocodile's name?
How did the turtle know that?
Thoughts swirled in Chu Ge's mind as he wondered if these two creatures might know each other.
Just then, the saltwater crocodile turned and rushed towards the lake.
Chu Ge didn't dare to follow.
Whoosh—
Water splashed on the surface of the lake as both the saltwater crocodile and the Sulcata tortoise sank to the bottom.
Chu Ge maintained a safe distance from the lake, to avoid being ambushed.
"Could they be putting on an act?"
Chu Ge was puzzled as he mulled over the name Rekton feeling as if he had heard it somewhere before.
After a while, neither the Sulcata tortoise nor the saltwater crocodile resurfaced, creating an eerie calm.
Chu Ge shook his head and decided to leave.
Besides Gu Tianjiao and these two creatures, he had twenty-two other targets. It wasn't worth wasting time here.
He had just walked less than five meters away when the Sulcata tortoise quickly climbed ashore, charging toward him.
Its four column-like legs moved at an incredibly fast pace, which looked quite comical.
"Simba! Wait for me!"
The Sulcata tortoise shouted, and Chu Ge turned to look at him with an icy gaze.
What on earth did this guy want?
The saltwater crocodile emerged on the lake's surface, coldly watching them, like a demon from the abyss peering into the mortal world.
The Sulcata tortoise was very fast, quickly arriving beside Chu Ge, and called out, "Brother Simba, let's team up!"
Chu Ge raised one of his lion paws, saying coldly, "Turtle, if you call me 'Simba' one more time, see what happens?"
Turtle!
The expression in the Sulcata tortoise's eyes suddenly became unnatural, and it gave an embarrassed smile.
"We belong to the same camp. Why don't we team up? I'll be your shield," the Sulcata tortoise shifted the topic, saying this with an excited and anticipatory look.
Seeing Chu Ge's muscular build, it couldn't contain its excitement.
This was the partner it had been dreaming of!
A formidable appearance!
Immense strength!
Agile movements!
Chu Ge looked down at it and said, "How do I know if you won't turn out to be an undercover agent?"
"I'm really not an undercover agent. My ability to kill enemies is weak; I can only defend," the Sulcata tortoise said helplessly.
Chu Ge shook his head and continued to advance.
The Sulcata tortoise quickly followed.
Chu Ge immediately accelerated and, within five seconds, had left the Sulcata tortoise behind, disappearing into the depths of the forest.
"Damn! What kind of speed is that!"
The Sulcata tortoise was astounded by Chu Ge's speed.
Meanwhile.
Chu Ge darted through the woods, pondering whether to kill the Sulcata Tortoise right now.
If he were to kill, the question was how to kill.
He must catch it off guard, taking care of it before it could retreat into its shell.
Suddenly, Chu Ge stopped and leaped into the bushes next to him, lying down, his body taut and blending seamlessly with the surroundings.
After a while.
The Sulcata Tortoise came walking briskly, cursing as it walked, "That bastard runs fast! He's definitely not an undercover. If he were, he'd try every means to stick with me and find an opportunity to kill me."
It approached the bushes where Chu Ge was hiding, getting closer and closer.
Chu Ge remained motionless, waiting for the opportunity.
The Sulcata Tortoise passed by in front of Chu Ge.
Completely unguarded, it continued cursing Chu Ge.
Whoosh—
The sound of wind suddenly rose as a lion's paw materialized out of nowhere, swooping down and tearing off the head of the Sulcata Tortoise, blood spattering everywhere.
Chu Ge then appeared, the entire process happening too fast to even blink.
"You have successfully hunted an enemy and gained 200 Survival Points,"
a cold female voice followed, echoing in Chu Ge's mind.
Chu Ge looked down at the corpse of the Sulcata Tortoise, his gaze indifferent.
He shook his lion's paw and walked away.
A few leaps and he was gone.
Half an hour later.
Chapter Find:
A Saltwater Crocodile passed by the spot and saw the corpse of the Sulcata Tortoise, pausing in surprise.
"Damn, that's ruthless. Whoever did this must be extremely fast, not giving it a chance to retract its head,"
murmured the Saltwater Crocodile, getting chills as he thought of Chu Ge.
It seems he had underestimated that Male Lion.
With that in mind, he moved closer and began feasting on the Sulcata Tortoise.
…
Chu Ge moved through the mountains and forests with the agility of a Cheetah.
He charged up the slope, swiftly reaching the top of the hill, facing a cliff that was over twenty meters away from the opposite forest.
He lay down at the edge of the cliff and started to rest.
Above him were still more woods, likely almost fifty meters tall before reaching the summit.
From here, Chu Ge could overlook many places, such as the large lake frequented by the Saltwater Crocodile.
Apart from the Saltwater Crocodile, he had yet to see any other Survivors from the different camp.
Strangely enough, there were very few animals nearby; on his way here, he only encountered a ground squirrel that quickly hid inside its burrow upon seeing him.
Crack crack—
Just then, noises came from the forest across from him.
One tree after another began to shake, as something moved rapidly through the woods.
Before long, a Sika Deer burst out of the forest and came to a stop in front of the cliff.
This Sika Deer had nearly a meter at the shoulder, its golden-brown coat dotted with white spots, and though its velvet antlers were not long, it turned to look at the forest, stepping back gradually towards the edge of the cliff, on the verge of falling.
"Are you a Survivor or a monster!"
The Sika Deer yelled, the voice evidently that of a young woman.
Only Survivors could understand the speech of another Survivor; humans could only hear the calls of the Survival Entity itself.
Chu Ge narrowed his eyes as he observed a huge shadow amidst the trees. The foliage obscured his view, preventing him from seeing it clearly, but he could roughly make out a humanoid form.
A wild man?
Chu Ge instinctively thought, noting the opponent's robust frame, easily two meters tall.
The shadow picked up stones, throwing them at the Sika Deer, causing her to scream continuously as she edged closer to the precipice.
"Roar—"
Chu Ge suddenly let out a roar, Lion's Roar commanding, echoing between the mountains.
The Sika Deer looked back reflexively, her deer eyes widening.
A lion?
Are there lions in Shennongjia?
She quickly guessed the identity of the other.
Hurriedly, she shouted, "Big brother, save me! This thing is not a Survivor! It wants to kill me! I'm an undercover, on the same side as you!"
