Chapter 13：Aren’t We Supposed To Go South? (1/2)

After taming the Giant Panda, a new message popped up on Wei Huo's Social Feed. ”You're now the owner of the Giant Panda.”

Wei Huo took a look at it, and it seemed like it was possible to name that panda as well. Wei Huo glanced at its foolish look and immediately named it 'Big Fool'. An abbreviation for 'Big Foolish Panda'.

Wei Huo looked over at the tiger and said, ”Let's call this second fatty, 'Fatty Tiger'.”

The panda and tiger were both confused. 'What are you talking about? We don't understand anything.'

After Wei Huo was done with naming them, the long-lost voice of God appeared again.

”New menu 'Map' added.

”Modifying Earth's tectonic plates to increase land area. Marine lifeforms disembarkment began.

”Biological evolution has accelerated.

”New blueprint 'Basic Construction Blueprint' added.”

Wei Huo was confused. ”???”

'What does modifying Earth's tectonic plates mean?'

Just as God's voice trailed off, Wei Huo heard an incredibly loud noise. It was a rumbling noise that sounded like a road roller. Soon after that, the ground vibrated, and it was getting stronger along with the loud noise. Wei Huo gradually got into a squat position on the ground. He could not stand still amidst such strong shocks!

The sky was shaking. The lands were moving. There were even landslides with the Earth all cracked up!

Those were the only phrases that were most appropriate to describe what was happening. Apart from the buildings and cars that experienced a time halt along with humans, everything else was about to be baptized by that super earthquake from the modification of Earth's plates.

Thankfully, Wei Huo was in the wild at the moment. Due to his luck, he was in the central region of the land. Although a horrifying earthquake was happening from the plates' movement, it did not hurt Wei Huo too badly. He only suffered a few scrapes on his body.

The panda and tiger did not understand what was happening. They hid under the trees while trembling. They thought an apocalypse was happening.

Wei Huo whipped up the Attributes Menu and saw the 'Map' option. He opened it to find the World Map, and all the continents on the map were moving. While these movements seemed minor on the map, it was the opposite in reality.

There were landslides and the cracks on Earth. It was as good as a 10-magnitude super earthquake.

Fortunately, humans were experiencing the time halt whilst animals and plants had undergone mutations over a hundred years. Animals had gotten bigger, while plants became stronger with their roots now being more developed to grip on the land firmly.

Wei Huo studied the map closely and realized that continents were breaking up and moving in different directions. The area Wei Huo was on was moving towards the north.

Wei Huo scrunched his eyebrows at that very moment. ”We have no choice but to go south!”

The climate on earth was extremely horrible at the moment. If that area continued moving north, the average temperature would drop significantly. If animals and plants did not have good enough adapting skills, most of them would die in the blink of an eye!

They had to move south!

The earthquake's magnitude gradually decreased. The super earthquake before was caused by the strong, tearing force in the Earth. As the plates began to drift at a slower speed, the degree of vibration decreased as well. The moment the plates reached its position, it was necessary to slow down otherwise there would be another super earthquake!

There were changes in all continents according to Wei Huo's map. It seemed like God planned to group continents of the Earth into five continents namely the Centre, Upper, Lower, Left, and Right. It seemed like a virtual gaming world at the moment, but God was being a little selfish, was he not?

Wei Huo was sure that if the time halt for humans came to an end, everyone would think that they had been teleported into a gaming world. Earth, at its current state, was worlds apart from what it used to be.

Wei Huo patted both his trembling beasts and pointed towards the south.

”We have to move towards the south!” Wei Huo said.

Both beasts did not understand what Wei Huo was talking about. They were startled by the sudden earthquake. There were no telling signs of it. It was caused by a mysterious and sudden crack in the Earth. That was why those animals were not able to predict the earthquake in advance despite their instinctive hunches.
