Chapter 127: Traps in the Remains (Part 2)

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

What would happen if all theanimals on Earth started becoming smart? Lu Shu wasn’t too sure.

But seeing the situation in this ancient remain, it wasn’t too serious. After all, although these animals were beginning to be more intellectual, their physique did not change much. If it stayed like this, Lu Shu didn’t have much to worry about.

Speaking of which would these animals become stronger under such magical circ.u.mstances?

But just as Lu Shu turned to run, a pebble whizzed towards him. He dodged instinctively, after all this sort of small maneuver was peanuts for him.

A rock as big as his face went past his body, causing a cloud of dust to rise as it smashed against the floor. Lu Shu turned around to look at the woods, not knowing which squirrel was responsible for that amid the numerous squirrels.

It wasn’t that the strength of that rock was extremely big or that it could threaten him, but Lu Shu felt that it wasn’t the strength that an ordinary squirrel ought to possess!

Could it be that animals became stronger as well?

He couldn’t care more, he just wanted to leave after picking the fruits.

The yellow land outside was more open and Lu Shu could move about freely while easily observing his surroundings, while the woods had too many trees blocking his view, which might make it difficult for him to be prepared for any sudden event.

Take that unusually strong squirrel for instance, who knew what other weird mutations this forest had concealed.

Even if the relic or any other rare herbs were in the forest, Lu Shu wasn’t willing to enter at all. His life was more precious, whoever else wanted to go was none of his business.

He took out a fruit from his jacket as he ran. Luckily it was early spring and he wore a jacket. Under the jacket was a long-sleeved T-s.h.i.+rt, if he didn’t have his jacket, he would have to go topless and use his T-s.h.i.+rt to contain the fruits.

He wiped the green fruit against his s.h.i.+rt and took a big bite. Instantly, a soothing sensation he had never felt before gushed through his mouth. It was like having a taste of a sweet, refres.h.i.+ng drink after being thirsty for two whole days.

And this ‘thirst’ represented the fatigue of the human body!

Lu Shu was stunned momentarily. He never expected the fruit to be so amazing. Apart from curbing his hunger immediately, his body’s fatigue seemed to have faded.

This fruit of the ancient remains was indeed amazing! No wonder the squirrels tried to attack him…

He undid his jacket to count the number of fruits, there was a grand total of more than thirty fruits. Perhaps in this ancient remains, he was the one who had to worry least about food. But he couldn’t just have stinky tofu for food as well, eating this delicious fruit in this situation was absolutely incredible.

He re-wrapped the fruits using his jacket carefully, fearing he might drop a few when moving around.

Past experiences had caused Lu Shu to adopt a personality similar to a hamster. He would be extremely careful when storing everything that was useful. He treated his large bag of fruits carefully, just like protecting his h.o.a.rd of treasure…

He stuck to the border of the forest and continued advancing. The more he walked, the greater the awe he had for the large land surface of this ancient remain. It far exceeded any expectation he once had.

Could this be a large continent?

At this moment, Lu Shu saw some feces at the border of the forest. Judging from their size, they probably didn’t belong to something as small as the squirrels. They probably belonged to something bigger like a husky.

He heard light treading on the yellow soil behind him and turned around instantly. It was actually two huge wolves!

The two wolves had ash-grey fur and looked extremely st.u.r.dy and muscular. With their gaze fixated on Lu Shu, they started advancing slowly.

Animals like wolves were rather special. Take wild cows for example, they’d be gentler in a herd but they’ll go into a rage when they were alone.

Wolves, on the other hand, were wild in a pact, but extremely timid when alone.

Lu Shu didn’t understand wolves greatly as he had never encountered any in his life, but he sensed huge danger at this point in time. Thinking of the distress points he obtained from the squirrels, if these strangely muscular wolves had also become intellectual and had formed pacts to hunt, he would really be in trouble.

The two wolves strode towards him from two directions. Lu Shu didn’t hesitate to swing his sword outwards, with speed so quick that the opposing party didn’t have any chance to react. Under these circ.u.mstances, he sliced one of the wolves in two halves.

But just as he was preparing to strike the other wolf, he noticed rustling sounds from the trees in the forest. Lu Shu looked over and was stunned… How many wolves were there? One, two hundred?!

Lu Shu was dead for sure…

Lu Shu’s income record kept increasing through distress from ‘green wolf’. It was obvious that all these wolves had become intelligent!

He didn’t know why. Perhaps it was because they were animals, their distress points were capped at a maximum of one point. But even so, he had a few hundred points every few minutes. If he dragged on, he could probably light up his fifth star today…

But he dared not drag any further!

Lu Shu had engaged this pack of wolves. The wolves were observing this human, as if pondering over his killing of the first wolf. They were thinking of a way to kill this human, or they were awaiting the instructions of their leader.

As Lu Shu raised his sword towards the pack, the wolves were rather surprised. Could this human have a ma.s.s killing ultimate technique?

Instead, Lu Shu turned around and started running frantically with his fruits!

The wolves stood rooted for a whole second in confusion. Although they had become intellectual creatures, it was still at a beginning stage and they couldn’t understand the link between the two actions of the human…

Meanwhile, Lu Shu received some distress points from the wolves…

He ran with the pack of wolves hot on his heels. Lu Shu dared not stop, there were too many traps and weird occurrences in this remain.

As he pa.s.sed by the place where he picked the fruits, that group of squirrels actually recognized him. Oh, isn’t this the person who stole our fruits? How dare he return?! With that, they started throwing rocks towards him!

Lu Shu was in dire trouble. Not only was he being chased by wolves, he was being attacked by the squirrels as well! They were lucky he didn’t have the time or capacity to entertain them. The next time he comes back, he would steal all their fruits!

He still wanted to advance forward initially, to see if he could maybe discover any new mysteries. What if he could find the relic?

Instead, he was in trouble now. Not only could he not move forward anymore, he was being chased by a pack of wolves! The only thing he could rejoice about was the fact that the wolves weren’t as quick as him. He was suddenly thankful and thought that speed was the greatest ability of a strength type metahuman! And he possessed the wonderful abilities to of a strength type metahuman!
