Chapter 184 - What the Hell is with this Place (1/2)
“I’m so hungry… who knows how long I flew in that endless tunnel…”
Zhang Che slowly crawled up from the ground to his feet. His surroundings was shrouded in darkness, leaving him feeling greatly doubtful, -I’m already feeling this hungry; why is it still night time? Where exactly am I?-
He had no idea whether he was still in the beast world. However, from the looks of it, he wasn’t on Mercury at the very least, because there wasn’t a hint of light in the sky.
-I better fill my stomach first, or I’ll have no energy to go find out where this place is .-
With a wave of his hand, the Rock Tortoise appeared and slammed into the ground, crushing countless blades of grasses and flowers.
Just as he was about to order the Rock Tortoise to spit out some roasted meat, Zhang Che suddenly froze on the spot for a moment, before he slapped the back of his head with a crisp smack.
He didn’t even know where this place was; it wasn’t safe to take out the roasted meat.
However, after all residues of the demonic flower were removed, Zhang Che’s strength didn’t seem to decrease one bit. It was an unexpected surprise.
The only frustrating thing was that his huge appetite remained. It seemed like Zhang Che had no choice but to walk on the path of an appetite king all the way. It truly left him desperate.
Eating only compressed biscuits wasn’t a solution, either. Zhang Che summoned the frisky monkey.
Before he could put a word in, the frisky monkey started jumping up and down excitedly. This fellow had been locked up in his spiritual sea for a few days now. Now that it was finally let out to take a breather, it was so happy it could ascend to the heavens.
Zhang Che suddenly felt thankful that he didn’t have to take part in that damned examination any longer. Otherwise, would his pets fall into depression if they were locked up for too long?
“Stop celebrating. We still have no idea where we are. Be careful of drawing strong foes here,” Zhang Che slapped the back of the frisky monkey’s head. He instructed, “Go, look around for some fruits and bring them back here. Your master daddy, I, is starving to death. Remember to be careful; don’t make too much noise.”
“Zhizhi!” No one knew if the frisky monkey was done celebrating, or if he heard what Zhang Che said. He nodded and ran off nimbly into the dense forest at the side.
After thinking for a little, Zhang Che summoned the Gale Wolf King, Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander, and the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon. Now that he was in an unknown place, it was better to be more cautious.
————-
Just like that, he waited for close to half an hour, sitting on the ground, his back leaning against a thick tree trunk. Suddenly, rustling sounds rang from his side. It was the frisky monkey. He returned with a pile of fruits in his hands, wrapped in a few large leaves.
Zhang Che couldn’t help but be annoyed at the fact that he didn’t have his backpack on him when he was sucked in by that mysterious chaotic mass of light. Otherwise, he could get the frisky monkey to fill it up with fruits and eat them together with the compressed biscuits. It would be a pretty good experience, too.
When the frisky monkey came up to Zhang Che carrying the bundle of fruits, Zhang Che retrieved a flintstone lighter from the Rock Tortoise and ignited it. He immediately confirmed that he was indeed still in the beast world.
In that bundle of fruits, there weren’t any fruits that he recognized.
“But, perhaps this isn’t the beast world either, and is instead a foreign world?”
Thinking of that, Zhang Che felt his scalp turning numb.
However, now that he was surrounded in darkness, he didn’t have the guts to walk out of this forest and see for himself, either. It was better to keep to himself and fill up his stomach for now.
Thinking of this, Zhang Che waved his hand at the Rock Tortoise and ordered it to spit out a big packet of compressed biscuits. Zhang Che took the biscuits, and along with the frisky monkey, the two of them started feasting.
