Chapter 452 - Uniformity

TL: LifeisaJourney

Greed is always a motivator. Once reached level 10, when they return to the Beginner Village, they would instantly jump tier into upper management. Not to mention that it would increase their ability to protect themselves. Weighing between the risk and advantage, the pre-level 10 players would feel that it is worth to stay behind.

Prior to arriving to meet with the teenage girl, they had spent the whole day practicing. At night time, they returned back to the public square. They saw a freshly created depression several meters wide caused by the King Crocodile. Even the thought of such a monster made everyone tremble.

The main cause of the fear of King Crocodile was because of its size. Even a simple step would make the ground tremble. Once they felt the vibrations, they would need to quickly move away from it, while also looking for an opportunity to erase their scent, so it wouldn’t be as dangerous.

Around the same time every night, the song ‘Little Apple’ would start playing in the loudspeaker. Then the teenage girl would reappear, acting like she was there this whole time.

Liu Gan and everyone had their makeup done by Ana. They had transformed into auntie ladyboys.

Every player was working hard to succeed, but with this many people, it would be hard to finish a complete dance. Any mistake was pointed out by the teenage girl and they would have to restart. However, the amount of mistakes were decreasing. Right as they were about to succeed, the ground started shaking and a roar could be heard.

Liu Gan halted the group, then lead them over to a nearby lake. Once again, they hid a hundred meters downstream of the lake in the mud. Mud was immediately applied to their bodies.

They narrowly avoided the ambush in time. After the King Crocodile approached the public square, it followed their scent down to the lakeside. Once again, it angrily bellowed when it realized that it had lost track of its prey.

This predator was quite intelligent. It would walk around the lake and at every step it took it would sniff the border. Only a few steps later, it was very close to where the group was hiding. The King Crocodile’s nose produced a great stench before it inhaled.

The immense pressure and fear caused some of the less courageous people to pee their pants. It was good for them that the lakeside mud had a stronger odor than the pee, it was enough to mask the odor. The King Crocodile didn’t discover the group of humans hiding in the mud, continuing with its patrol before leaving.

The group stayed crouching in the mud for another half an hour, until the ground shaking had stopped. Once Liu Gan couldn’t sense any sign of the King Crocodile, one by one they waded ashore.

By the time they returned to the public square, the teenage girl had already disappeared. Since there was nothing they can do about it, they had to continue the next day.

Liu Gan remembered his lesson from yesterday night, that this area was the King Crocodile’s territory. He didn’t set up his camp in his territory anymore.

Liu Gan led the group back to the campsite that they had slept at for the latter half of the night. They gathered firewood and started up the bonfire, then decided who would stand guard for the first half of the night shift.
