Chapter 176 - Abominable Living Conditions (1/2)

William was the first to step on Stormy Island. He found it fantastic and colorful.

No accidents happened.

He was probably the first intelligent being to step on this island in thousands of years…

There was no question.

Of course, the fact that William had been the first to visit the island did not have all to obtain the reward of 10 thousand experience…

He also wanted to be the first one to leave his footprints here.

The white beach was glittering and translucent. The trees were tall and dense. The island was filled with large magical beasts and small, strange creatures.

Some lazy magical turtles had been roaming on the beach. But when they saw that humans had appeared, their green eyes widened, and they immediately ran away.

That was right.

They were the speedy kind…

When Chu Liuqiu saw this, the corners of his lips twitched in irritation. “If an ordinary person was here, they would not even be able to catch turtles. Are they supposed to starve to death here?”

“Heh heh, the magical turtles are over level 30. Luckily, they are afraid of foreigners. If they had charged at us, we might not have been able to fend them off.”

“I have already seen four different unknown creatures. They are all magical beasts. There has not been a single wild beast…” Forever Alone gulped. They were all magical beasts. Even if their bloodline was low, they would have to rely on group tactics in order to defeat them.

Many players sensed that they were going to die.

They had never expected that they would encounter so many magical beasts just after arriving at Stormy Island.

William did not plan to set up camp near the beach. His first priority was to find a water source. Water elemental mages were able to gather water. But a few water elemental mages could fulfill the long-term needs of thousands of people.

“One group will consist of 10 people. We are going to advance. Be careful.” After William issued the command, he led the entire team into the rainforest.

The dense trees, vines, branches, as well as many venomous insects and snakes, all of them posed a fatal danger to them.

Thus, the soldiers along the sides would typically activate their battle energy shields.

This time, William did not let his guards lead the way.

He held two Thunder Blades. He constantly used his battle energy to cut down the trees and vines that blocked his way. Wherever he went, a path would open up.

The more people they had, the more powerful they were.

This was the benefit of having a legion.

Lautner was among them. Burned Cinder, who had revived, was positioned at the very end. The very long line of people had not yet been ambushed, but this did not mean that they would not be attacked in the future.

William knew how dangerous the magical beasts on this island were. If they weren’t, he would not have brought along Lautner, as well as a fellow Legendary, Burned Cinder.

They had only walked a few kilometers in the rainforest when they stopped to rest.

It was too difficult to walk. The temperature was so high that they started to complain. Even though all of them were professionals, they profusely sweated in this hot and suffocating weather.

If they had not brought drinking water, they would have been dehydrated.

And it would have been a very grave situation.

Not only would dehydration cause their body condition to deteriorate, but it would also affect the cerebrum. This would cause their thoughts to become muddled.

If the players were severely dehydrated, even they would suffer. Many negative buffs would appear in their attribute statistics.

In particular, dozens of people had already been attacked. However, there had been no injuries.

But the venomous insects and snakes, as well as some small dragons, were rather detestable.

Not to mention, some magical monkeys had some grabbed stones. And climbing up the nearby trees, they started attacking people.

Of course, the people would counterattack.

But the pure elves felt that the rainforest environment was inconvenient. There were too many obstacles, and it was not easy to hit any targets.

Their nimble bodies were also restricted in the rainforest.

Vines and dense branches that were present everywhere hindered them. Venomous insects and creatures were around them. If they were not careful, they might be stung.

This was also the main reason why elves lived in forests, but not rainforests.

But no matter what.

Elves and half-elves could adapt better to the environment than humans.
