The scene in front of his eyes changed in the next step. He had covered that space in less than a second.
A vast forest appeared in his eyes, there was something strange about that forest.
'Why does every plant here has blue
leaves ' he thought.
Every plant in his vision had blue leaves. 'I guess I really am in another world' he chuckled as he checked his robe.
'So, what am I supposed to do now, he thought' he thought, ' first I should try to escape this forest, this world must also have human settlements.
He picked up a direction and started walking, the direction wasn't picked randomly, he had picked the direction where the forest seemed to be less dense.
Just like that another boring journey began, 'why does this forest not have any animals' he thought as he rested inside an empty cave, he had been travelling for 3 days but ge still has to find any traces of humans or animals.
The answer to his question arrived when he heard growls comming from a distance, he immediately halted his pace, 'that sounded like a tiger' he exclaimed. 'Maybe I can go just a little close and get a better look'.
He slowly and silently moved towards the direction the growls. He stopped moving when the growls became more clear, it seemed as if those creatures were not far away from there. "If I go any closer they might get my scent" he mumbled as he reviewed his situation.
He was in the middle of a strange forest with blue leaves all around and no other living creatures at all, it was his only chance to get a clear idea about that forest.
'Can I cover my scent' he thought as he concentrated his mind on covering his scent, as if listening to his request, dense red gas came out of pores of his skin and soon a additional layer of skin took form on his previous skin.
He examined his condetion and soon a smile appeared on his face, 'this power defies any common sense' he laughed.
His body scent has completely disappeared, the additional skin layer was preventing any scent to leak out of his body. It was as if he was just another tree in that forest.
"Honestly, this body is great, oh wait, is this even a body" He mumbled"now that i think about it, I don't really have any blood or internal organs, I am just a living solid mass of gas now...I have liven a long life, studies as many topics as I could, but still I am unable to understand how this body works"
He put that thought about his body in the back of his mind as he marched towards the incoming roars.
Soon he reached the point where he can hear the roars even more clearly, yet no beast was visible.
"Maybe a little futhur"he said and continued to march forward. He was being more careful about his footsteps now, predators usually have good ears after all.
A little more than an hour had to pass when he found the source of growls, "what is that thing" He couldn't help but say out loud. In a cave at some distance he could see a giant wolf like creature stuck in a bear trap. The creature was large, it was about 1.5 meters tall, had 4 muscular legs, a hairy tail and a large mouth wich featured 2 canines popping out of the sides of it's jaw.
It's overall color was dark grey.
Despite it's large size the creature seemed unable to free himself from the trap in which one of his muscular leg was stuck.
'What the f*ck is wrong with this world' he thought 'it looks like a giant wolf with muscles of a saber tooth tiger' ' this thing must have scared away most of the other beasts in the area'.
'Is it stuck, who would even try to catch something like that'
'Hmmm, if someone has set that trap, he would definitely come to check it, that might be my cance to get out of this forest.'
With those thoughts ge climbed on a tall and strong looking tree at some distance from the creature.
He waited that woke day, the next day and the day after that but no one came to check on the trap.
At the end of the third day he reached his limit, 'Ok, so nobody is gonna come' he said to himself.
'I am hungry, I have not felt hunger like this in a long time' he said as he climbed down the tree, so that he could gi to search for some food.
His eyes fell on the wolf, the creature seemed weak as hell, he might be stuck in that trap for many weeks, it was a miracle that it was still alive.
'Maybe I don't need to search for good he thought as he looked at the wolf in pitiful condition. It was week, it's body seemed frail, it was not even trying to free itself anymore, it looked like it has gave up on it's life.
After inspecting the Wolf's condition he went to search for some water.
"I need a sharp weapon, a long weapon like a spear would be good, I still don't intend to go near that thing".
After drinking some water from a spring which was about a mile away from his previous spot, he started to look for suitable tools to make a spear, he needed a long and durable stick and a sharp pointy stone.
.......
Half a day have to pass before he could gather materials.
"Now let's see" He said as he put a sharp stone and a long bamboo stick on the ground.
He streched his arm towards the materials and dense red gas soon came out of his palm and covered the materials in front of him. A sphere of dense red gas soon formed in front of him and stared to float.
A few minutes have to pass before the gas dispersed, revealing a long spear, it's edge was made up of the same stone which was used in the material but it's edges were a lot sharper now , also it was attached to a dark red bamboo stick with a black matel that was not in the materials, it seemed that the gas has formed it on its own.
Overall the spear was good, it had the exact length that he desired, it was also sharp and seemed durable.
"Time to hunt then,.... I am nervous, this is my very first hunt after all."
