For a moment, Bai Chuan's curiosity rose, but his rationality told him that there might be danger. He shouldn't go up and join in the fun. He hesitated, considered for a moment, then decided he still wanted to check it out. Although he cherished his life, it did not mean that he was timid.
If a person's first reaction when there was a problem in their territory was to run away and not even dare to try to understand, then what was the use of being strong? If you retreat because you're afraid of danger today, then tomorrow, you'll retreat because you're afraid of others plotting against you. And then… You'll retreat again and again. One day, you might not be able to retreat anymore. After all, it was impossible for humans to appear in this remote place where he had stayed for half a year, right?
It might be some secret treasure in the forest. His current strength was not considered weak. Just his power generation ability alone would make anyone suffer a huge loss. With this thought in mind, Bai Chuan lowered his body and quietly crawled over.
Crack! At this moment, the sound of broken branches came from afar.
Bai Chuan's snake body stiffened. "Uh-oh, I can't be that unlucky, right?" He had just said that it was impossible for a human to appear, but he really appeared?
The next moment, he suddenly exploded and silently climbed up the tree. At the same time, the color of his body quickly changed, exactly the same as his surroundings. The movements of his entire body instantly decreased to the minimum.
The entire process was done in one go without any excess. There was not a single movement during this period.
At this moment, a female voice came from afar, sounding puzzled. "%*#…?"
"#%&..." A gentle male voice replied to the female voice.
Not long after, a man and a woman in tight clothes advanced nimbly in the forest. They looked like apes in the forest. Ten seconds later, the man and woman quickly left the place while saying strange words.
Throughout the entire process, Bai Chuan remained motionless as he quietly watched the two of them leave.
What were they saying? This was Bai Chuan's first reaction. Oh no, he did not expect that the first question he would face after being reborn in another world was that he did not understand what others were saying.
Bai Chuan was speechless. Although he didn't know what they were talking about, who was Bai Chuan? From the strange frozen lake phenomenon to the humans who had mysteriously appeared in this desolate mountain range. He guessed that the other party had a certain relationship with this. Otherwise, who would come to the deep mountains and forests for no reason?
It seemed like something big had happened.
Bai Chuan thought for a moment and went down the tree again. He began to slowly move in that direction. At this moment, his entire body became active. He was like an old machine that was slowly starting up again. He was about to operate at full speed. His perception was at its maximum.
Not long after, he stopped again.
This was because a few more humans appeared behind him. Some were carrying knives, some were holding sticks, and some were carrying swords.
"Looks like a lot of people have come this time," Bai Chuan muttered to himself as he looked in the direction of the newcomers.
The language barrier was indeed troublesome, so much so that he could not even understand their goal. He just didn't know what these humans' ability models were like. Could he understand their words?
At this moment, this thought suddenly appeared in Bai Chuan's mind.
However, there were too many humans now. He needed to be more cautious and see their movements and goals.
...
In the next few days, Bai Chuan witnessed what these uninvited guests did.
Some of them had light bodies and moved like the wind, as agile as the monkeys in the mountains. Some of them had heavy bodies and were as heavy as wild boars in the mountains. Moreover, they all had a common goal. They were searching for something, but on the way, they would wantonly grab various animals.
At this moment, all the creatures in the forest were implicated.
There were those who captured deer and forcefully cut off their tender antlers to drink their blood. There were also those who killed packs of wolves and pulled out their teeth, broke their claws, mixed them with special liquid, and smeared them all over their bodies. There were also those who captured various poisonous things and extracted their poison to smear on their hands.
Of course, there were also some who were looking for various plants and stuffed them into their mouths to chew.
Their actions were extremely strange, but they had the power to make all kinds of ferocious beasts retreat. This scene made Bai Chuan's heart turn cold. He could not help but ask himself, "Are they really humans? Or are they practicing some evil technique?"
For a moment, this group of uninvited guests completely destroyed the forest that was previously filled with a primitive aura.
Bai Chuan could not help but rejoice. Fortunately, he could hide. Otherwise, with so many people attacking him, he probably would not be able to escape. At that time, as a poisonous snake, he would definitely be suppressed to extract the poison. Perhaps, seeing that his body was strange, they might even skin him and drink his blood.
"Roar!" At this moment, a tiger roar filled with intimidation came from afar, shaking the leaves in the forest.
"Here we go again." Bai Chuan looked in that direction and muttered in his heart. This was not the first time he had heard this tiger roar. However, compared to the roar that was filled with anger at the beginning, the tiger roar now carried a deep and unconcealable fatigue. His intuition told him that this tiger was about to be exhausted to death.
Yes, although this group of people had strange abilities, apart from a few rare ones, most of them could not resist the King of the Jungle. However, there were many of them. Taking advantage of the large number of people, they had been thinking of using encirclement to exhaust this ferocious tiger to death. As long as he did not get any rest for a few days, even a ferocious tiger would be dragged to death.
He just didn't know what their goal was.
Bai Chuan's intuition told him that their target was not the tiger because the strongest few were still searching as if no one was around.
Bai Chuan propped himself up again and left his nest that was more than 20 meters deep underground. He swam outside. Along the way, he carefully avoided the occasional human passing by and finally came to a corpse. This was one of the humans who had died fighting over a plant in the past few days.
Bai Chuan shook his head and his eyes focused. In an instant, a notification popped up.
[Scanning in progress… 87%…]
Yes, in the past few days, other than going out to observe this group of humans from time to time, he had come here to scan this human corpse. Originally, under such circumstances, eating this corpse was the fastest way. Moreover, this kind of corpse that was abandoned in the forest would not arouse suspicion even if he ate it.
However, as a human in his previous life, he could not bring himself to do that. Perhaps now that he was no longer human, he could kill the other party without any hesitation. However, it was impossible for him to eat it.
This was not pretentiousness, but the worldview that he had cultivated in his previous life for so many years was affecting him.
Humans had to have a bottom line. This was his bottom line.
