In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean…
The image of a person sitting on top of a large stingray-shaped creature was seen traveling at great speed.
As approached, it was possible to see that he was a young man of about eighteen or nineteen years of ordinary appearance.
The expression on his face was one of anxiety and nervousness.
The young man on top of the stingray was Liu Yang.
After leaving Antarctica, he encountered the same stingray again, so he used the taming skill on it.
So he used the creature as a water mount.
Currently, his trip was towards Africa, or rather, to the center of the African continent because his friend was kidnapped and taken to the world beyond the portal.
So he had a duty to rescue her. Besides, the Invasion System would also give much more valuable rewards for beating quests and the Locator System was pointing in the direction of where he was going.
The trip took about a month to reach the southern coast of the African continent.
His first sight was the gigantic mountain ranges surrounding the mainland and pitch-black clouds hovering across the sky.
Intense rains fall every day like an endless deluge.
If it was before, these mountains would not even exist, but after the opening of the portals, several countries in the world had substantial changes in relief.
When Liu Yang approached the mainland, the rain was already felt by him and the big waves shake the sea.
splash!!!! splash!!!!
The sound of the water hitting the walls can be heard from far away.
Liu Yang had a solemn look on his face as he saw the scene before him.
One of the most dangerous places to go was this area of the African continent. The inside was easier to survive than the outside.
On the continent, there were many holes dug by the African Hunter guilds to be used as points to leave the continent, but the toll was very expensive. So few could afford to do this.
Most try to get out of the mainland by climbing the mountain, but it was deadly.
Foreign guilds pay fortunes to enter the African continent and venture through dangerous portals and hunt exotic creatures that only exist on the continent.
The situation was the same on all continents, but an enclosed place surrounded by mountains was much more attractive.
Besides, each Hunter on the African continent was much stronger than the average on the other continents. For they were surrounded by the mountains and could not go out freely like the others, so they had to fight for their lives every day.
Their culture was also different.
Big cities had the same characteristics as other countries, with a lot of technology and wealth, but small towns and villages were called tribes.
Every six months, the tribes compete with each other for a chance to receive not only financial support but also protection from the big cities for a year. The competition was brutal, so it was normal for many Hunters to die in the process.
The stingray slowed down as it approached the violent storm in the mountainous area.
The waters of the sea begin to shake violently as if there were an earthquake. At every moment, many waves crash into the stone walls.
"adjkasdjkasdjk… dasjkdasjkdajks…" The stingray tried to communicate with Liu Yang by making sounds. It sensed great danger coming from the waves.
"I know. You can go back and continue living your life. When it's time, I'll call you again." Liu Yang patted the stingray's head before jumping into the sea.
"Henshin!!!! He screamed into the water.
The Hunter Drive was activated.
The stingray only made a few more sounds before swimming to the deepest parts of the ocean to wait for the call.
Unlike the Blue Poison Snake, it was not possible to keep the stingray inside the system, so it was necessary to leave the creature somewhere safe.
Inside the sea was a gigantic creature the size of a large mansion. The appearance was of an ancient prehistoric aquatic dinosaur.
The creature was staring at Liu Yang as if he were delicious prey.
ROAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The giant mouth with two rows of sharp teeth opened and devoured Liu Yang. The size was so big that it could swallow a whole house.
The next instant…
slash!!!! slash!!!! slash!!!! booooooom!!!!!
The creature was cut into several smaller pieces. The scent of blood attracted other creatures like it.
Soon, this part of the sea was infested with prehistoric creatures devouring the large pieces of the previous creature.
Any creatures that tried to devour Liu Yang were also cut to pieces.
This cycle repeated for some time until there were no creatures brave enough to attack him.
Swim speed without Hunter Drive power was pretty slow because it was already disabled after ten minutes of use, but it was still faster than normal.
The vision of the mountain walls finally appeared before him, but it was still necessary to climb.
