In the outskirts of Moonlight City, beside an abandoned subway entrance, a low-level crocodile-shaped monster basked in the sun.
This crocodile-shaped creature posed no threat to others until it had sufficiently elevated its body temperature.
Since the area inhabited by the crocodile-shaped monster had long been forsaken by humanity. Therefore, the crocodile-shaped monster had rarely encountered humans. It had also never engaged in conflict with other monsters.
As its body temperature rose, the crocodile-shaped monster finally became capable of movement.
Under normal circumstances, the creature would take a stroll around the abandoned subway entrance.
Afterward, it would venture to other locations in search of humans.
Today, its actions were no different from usual.
However, just as the crocodile-shaped monster reached the other side of the abandoned subway entrance, a phantom gate suddenly materialized before it.
