Chapter 267 - A Giant Ape That Could Box (1/2)

Without Zhang Che realizing it, he had advanced a few dozen kilometers since the start. There was no one else in sight for some time now.

Of course, it was mainly because he chose to advance in the direction with no one else around.

The reasoning was simple. With so many people moving forward together, the beastmasters in front would naturally draw many exotic beasts to them. As long as he didn’t advance too quickly, and chose to move where not many people passed by, it would be much safer.

Moreover, Zhang Che was stronger than most of the other beastmasters here. If he encountered any exotic beasts, he could most likely clear the path ahead swiftly, sweeping his way through in an instant-kill manner. It wouldn’t cause much commotion, also lowering the chances of the powerful exotic beasts noticing him.

-Ahhh, there’s a whole thousand kilometers to go! Even if there is no need to battle with exotic beasts on the way, it will take quite some time to cover the distance on foot. Looks like it will take at least a few days’ time to reach the gateway to the secret plane,- Zhang Che grumbled to himself as his field of vision gradually widened.

Before he realized it, he had walked out of the forest. In front of him was a mountain range.

Should he enter it? That was what Zhang Che was considering.

Normally speaking, it was common for powerful exotic beasts to hide in tall mountains.

However, he didn’t know how far this mountain range extended. Detouring around it truly wouldn’t be easy, not to mention that there was no guarantee he wouldn’t encounter powerful exotic beasts if he did choose to take a detour.

“I’ll just go straight ahead, then. I’ll just try to be more careful. As long as my luck isn’t that bad that I run into a divine-quality exotic beast, forcing me to run away, even an epic-quality exotic beast wouldn’t be able to stop me.”

With such a strong group of babies, Zhang Che was very confident of himself. He only took a short while to make his decision, stepping forward.

Before he got far, Zhang Che saw obvious marks on the snowy ground ahead.

-Hmm? Someone already went ahead of me? Even better!- Zhang Che immediately felt relieved. Since someone was ahead of him, he only needed to be more careful and not go too fast. He didn’t have to worry much about his safety.

Therefore, he purposefully took a tiny detour to the side, taking a path without any tracks.

This way, he would, to a large degree, avoid the exotic beasts drawn to those ahead of him.

Although the mountain summits here were really high up, Zhang Che had no need to directly scale them. He could just walk along the mountain foot.

—

Suddenly, the Scarlet Flame Drake, who was scouting ahead, sent Zhang Che a warning. The latter’s brows immediately twitched.

-Damn it, I already avoided places with others around. Why did I still encounter powerful exotic beast? Shouldn’t they be drawn to where the others were?-

-Nevermind, we’ll just fight, then!-

Soon, Zhang Che saw the Scarlet Flame Drake confronting a giant ape at the mountain’s foot ahead.
