Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Thrills and Dignity
“I’ve just leveled up to Four Stars, this time I won’t mess around, I won’t take risks with you, just give up.”
Chu Ge shook his head, no matter how Sorcerer Cat tried to persuade him, he remained unmoved.
Sorcerer Cat, having no other option, could only shake its head and leave.
Watching its retreating figure, Chu Ge cautiously said, “Let’s rest somewhere else.”
Perhaps Sorcerer Cat wouldn’t harm them.
But what if enemies followed Sorcerer Cat to their location?
Arno, Xiao Poor Thing, and Xiao Ming had no objections, and the four of them quickly changed their position.
Half an hour later.
They stopped.
Still by the riverside, with plenty of weeds nearby, but they still couldn’t hide Chu Ge’s strong physique.
This was fine, as long as Xiao Poor Thing, Arno, and Xiao Ming could hide, Chu Ge was willing to be the bait.
The night suddenly fell silent.
All the sounds of frogs croaking and beasts roaring vanished.
An unusual silence, so quiet it was unsettling.
Chu Ge squinted his eyes, looking half asleep.
Rustle, rustle, rustle—
The branches of a distant tree suddenly started to shake, as if something was jumping up and down on it.
Chu Ge turned to look.
It was a golden monkey.
Not very big, it held onto a branch with one hand, swinging its body in mid-air.
It looked at Chu Ge, silent.
Chu Ge also watched it.
Their eyes met, and even in the dark, they could see the look in each other’s eyes.
Curiosity!
“What does it want to do?”
To this intriguing thought, Chu Ge wondered if the little monkey intended to hunt him.
Could this fellow be poisonous?
Typically, smaller Survivors who made it to Four Stars had something to do with poison.
The golden monkey stared at him for a while before asking, “Are you a Survivor?”
The voice was very pleasant.
It seemed to be a cute girl.
“Yeah,” Chu Ge responded, noncommittal.
“Can I kill you? If I don’t earn Survival Points soon, I’ll turn into an animal, can you help?”
“Then come on over.”
“You’re not deceiving me, are you? I’ve been scared the past few days.”@@novelbin@@
“I won’t.”
Chu Ge laughed, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.
All ancient foxes, playing tricks on me?
The golden monkey approached cautiously.
It pretended to be very scared, while Chu Ge maintained a smile.
A smiling Male Lion was also quite ferocious.
Just as the golden monkey got within five meters of Chu Ge, it suddenly stopped and cried out in terror, “There’s an enemy behind you!”
An enemy?
Chu Ge frowned and instinctively looked back.
In that instant, the golden monkey made its move.
Like a golden shadow, it swept by!
It reached out both hands, which were abnormally sharp, attempting to tear Chu Ge apart.
Bang!
Arno suddenly leapt from the bushes, colliding with the golden monkey in midair, and swiftly pinned it down.
This fall knocked the golden monkey unconscious.
Arno quickly bit through its neck.
No mercy for the tender and delicate.
Chu Ge turned back, and the golden monkey was already a corpse.
“Boss, you really fell for that trick?”
Xiao Poor Thing, who had been lying in wait, couldn’t help but laugh and ask.
Chu Ge hummed, “What do you know, I’m simply using their strategy against them.”
He felt a wave of relief wash over him.
Damn!
That was close to a huge embarrassment!
Arno, on the other hand, was in good spirits, for he had finally earned some Survival Points again.
“How can this guy be so weak and still choose to act alone, and moreover survive until now?” Xiao Poor Thing muttered.
The Golden Monkey was instantly killed by Arno, not even having a chance to struggle, which really didn’t meet the standards of a Four Stars Survivor.
Chu Ge lay on his paws and casually said, “Perhaps it was forced to level up.”
In a team, as long as half of the members are qualified to level up, the team will be forcibly leveled up.
There are always some Survivors whose strength isn’t enough; when they get to Four Stars, they naturally can’t keep up with the pace.
“Is that so?” Xiao Poor Thing said skeptically.
Xiao Ming surfaced from the river and said, “It’s probably a decoy. It must have some kind of Survival Prop or Survival Skills that can disperse a scent. The role of such survivors is to tell the big shots of the team where there is prey.”
Hearing this, Xiao Poor Thing immediately sniffed around.
“Eh? There really is a strange smell, faint but definitely there,” Xiao Poor Thing exclaimed in surprise.
Chu Ge frowned, hesitating whether to move positions.
“That’s perfect, then! We won’t have to look all over for prey!” Arno said excitedly, looking around, waiting for the enemy to appear.
Xiao Ming spoke again, “Usually such teams are very strong, so they pick a weak decoy. That way, even if the enemy notices, they will take it lightly. From a normal person’s logic, the gap in strength within a team should not be too great.”
This kind of counterintuitive thinking is loved by many Survivors.
But you reverse, and it reverses too.
In the end, it still leads to the same result.
“Let’s still lay low. The scent of the Golden Monkey has stuck to us and it’s difficult to get rid of, even bathing won’t work. Instead of hiding, it’s better to fight it out,” Xiao Ming continued.
After finishing, he dove back into the water.
Chu Ge told Xiao Poor Thing to hide in the trees, while Arno hid in the nearby bushes, ready to support Chu Ge at any moment.
“Member Local Snake of Team ‘Suicide’ has successfully annihilated Survival Team ‘Praise Heaven and Earth,’ and all members have gained an additional 500 Survival Points!”
“Survival Team ‘Suicide’ has successfully annihilated Survival Team ‘Praise Heaven and Earth’!”
The trio of Chu Ge were stunned.
Local Snake annihilated an enemy?
What kind of joke was this!
Arno muttered, “Could he have just scavenged their remains? But what kind of situation would allow an Earthworm to scavenge?”
Chu Ge shook his head and chuckled, “Maybe that Survivor was already on his last breath, and Local Snake became the last straw that broke the Camel’s back.”
He felt somewhat worried inside.
He hoped Local Snake wouldn’t get carried away.
After all, it wasn’t Local Snake’s job to kill the enemy.
He must survive as long as possible.
Chu Ge was afraid that after annihilating a group of enemies, Local Snake would become arrogant.
Fortunately, for the next while, they heard no announcements about Local Snake being killed.
Time continued to pass.
The night grew deeper, and the surrounding rainforest seemed like demons and ghosts, ready to swallow Chu Ge and Arno at any moment.
“Awooo—”
A wolf’s howl came from a distance, shattering the silence.
Chu Ge narrowed his eyes, looking in the direction of the sound.
In the darkness, pairs of green, glowing eyes lit up.
Chu Ge counted them, guessing there were about ten Survivors.
Tsk tsk.
In this day and age, a team could still maintain a group of ten?
It seemed that this team was truly strong.
Soon, a White Wolf, as robust and large as a bull, emerged. Several patches of fur were missing from its body, blood was dripping, as if it had just been through a fierce battle.
It stared coldly at Chu Ge and said, “Prey, do you want to die quickly, or with dignity?”
“What’s the difference?” asked Chu Ge.
“To die quickly is to simply lie down and accept death, and to die with dignity is to fight me, to die in battle!”
Chu Ge rolled his eyes.
Just say you want to fight, will you!
Chu Ge pretended to retreat, but he was actually moving closer to the water.
“You only have two teammates, one in the trees, one in the bushes. You can’t escape,” said the White Wolf coldly.
