Survival Arena

"You have successfully hunted an enemy and gained 200 Survival Points."

"Since this Survivor has already killed two enemies, you earn an extra 200 Survival Points."

The indifferent female voice rang out, and Chu Ge lay down to begin resting.

This guy actually managed to kill two Survivors.

That's right.

The speed of that ambush just now was very fast.

Plus, being a cute Ragdoll Cat, it's easy to lower someone's guard.

As Chu Ge thought, he remained vigilant of his surroundings.

Time slowly passed by.

About an hour later, Chu Ge finally got up and left.

He walked up the slope, his wounds had scabbed over, but they still felt painful.

"I must recover before I encounter King Kuihu."

Chu Ge silently thought to himself; he hadn't sustained serious injuries and would recover in a day or two.

In these next two days, all he could do was pray not to encounter King Kuihu.

"Boss!"

The voice of Xiao Poor Thing suddenly came from above, Chu Ge looked up and saw the members of Suicide looking down from the top of the slope, gazing at him with surprise and delight.

Everyone was overjoyed, only Gu Tianjiao's expression was calm, but Chu Ge could see the relief in her eyes.

Chu Ge immediately ran up the slope to join them.

"Boss, you're amazing, to survive such a high fall! If you can't do it, who can?" Nangong said excitedly.

Chu Ge shook his head with a smile, "I did almost die, and I ran into a Ragdoll Cat just now..."

He recounted everything that had happened earlier.

After hearing the story, everyone looked at him with admiration.

"If it were me, I might not have been able to do it," Ye Wukong laughed lecherously, his laughter somewhat sleazy.

Nangong nodded, seemingly lost in thought, his drool almost spilling out.

Gu Tianjiao glared at them and said irritably, "You'll end up dying at the hands of a woman one day, unlike our sensible captain!"

"Exactly, what if that woman said she'd be part of a squad of five? Deceptive tactics!" Xiao Poor Thing added.

For a time, the atmosphere among the group turned jovial.

They continued to chat as they climbed upward.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The mountain path was rugged, difficult to descend. In this hour, Gu Tianjiao and the others hadn't encountered any danger or other Survivors, and even so, it took them an hour to come down.

The Sumatran Chimpanzee they had encountered earlier was really frightening, so now they proceeded with extra caution, no longer underestimating the Vengeful Ghost.

"Survival Team 'Xi Chang' has been annihilated by Survival Team 'Roaring Tiger Group'!"

The cold female voice suddenly announced, a harbinger that the Roaring Tiger Group had embarked on a killing spree.

Arno gritted his teeth, "Where exactly is King Kuihu? I am so eager to find him!"

Seeing King Kuihu on a rampage stirred his eagerness.

"Don't be in a rush, let him keep on killing; by the time we meet him, he will be the final boss!" Gu Tianjiao snorted.

Ye Wukong's eyes lit up, "Then when we kill him, won't we burst out thousands of Survival Points? Won't that be thrilling?"

Arno, Nangong, and Xiao Poor Thing all had their eyes light up in anticipation.

Chu Ge suddenly asked, "What about Local Snake?"

Not hearing Local Snake's quiet muttering made him feel somewhat unaccustomed.

"He got hit and broke in half at the waist. Though he's still alive, he isn't as agile as before, so we left him there," Nangong answered.

Chu Ge frowned, "Isn't that like betraying a teammate?"

Gu Tianjiao explained, "It was his own suggestion. He said in that state, following us around, he might die on the road."

Hearing this, Chu Ge relaxed his brow.

He certainly didn't want to see his team engage in malicious abandonment of a teammate.

"In that case, we'll need to choose someone good at climbing to be in charge of the summit mission later on."

Chu Ge pondered and, as if by an unspoken agreement, they all turned their gaze to Ye Wukong.

Ye Wukong blinked and said, "Leave it to me? Sure!"

What's it like to stand at the summit of Huashan?

He was looking forward to it!

"On the last day, we'll fight with the goal of protecting Wukong as he reaches the peak," Chu Ge quickly decided.

No one objected.

Whoosh—whoosh—

Just then, the sound of helicopter blades sounded from above the forest.

The winter's Huashan was shrouded in snow and mist, preventing them from seeing the helicopter.

"Is there a place for a helicopter to land on Huashan?" Xiao Poor Thing muttered.

Gu Tianjiao responded, "Who knows, it's very likely here for the Roaring Tiger Group. We need to be careful, especially our leader. If he's spotted by humans, he'll certainly be surrounded and captured by a crowd. If he resists and injures someone, he might even get killed."

Nangong said with a smug smile, "I'm different, who dares mess with me?"

"I think you're just asking to be caught. Wait until they throw you into a zoo and force you to eat bamboo every day," Ye Wukong said fiercely.

"Better than you, Chimpanzee. Do you know how people tease chimpanzees? All sorts of provocations, even eating bananas in front of you, licking them slowly, just to irritate you."

"Idiot, I don't like bananas."

"You think I won't be able to get to you if I lick a banana in front of you?"

"Then I'll break bamboo in front of you!"

The two clowns began to bicker, significantly easing the team's tension.

...

A Northeast Tiger spotted on Huashan!

News suddenly exploded on social media, quickly shooting to the top of trending searches, with more and more marketing accounts sharing it, each more extravagant in their descriptions than the last.

The news also came with a short video.

It was taken by a tourist, and the tiger in the video was none other than King Kuihu.

He was standing on the mountainside, roaring at the people below; the video also captured many exclamations from the crowd.

Below the news, comments broke through twenty thousand in just an hour and were still skyrocketing.

This rate of increase was on par with the scandals of big-name stars cheating, breaking up, or announcing marriages!

"Holy shit, it's real!"

"Such a majestic tiger!"

"By R'hllor! The Emperor has returned!"

"Forming a group to visit Huashan to see the tiger, sign up now, not responsible for accidental death!"

"Such a handsome King of Beasts."

"This tiger is even more domineering than the ones in the movies."

Instantly, online discussions about the Northeast Tiger set off.

King Kuihu's high profile did not arouse fear in people but instead attracted more visitors to Huashan.

However, Huashan's scenic area had already stopped ticket sales.

In the age of big data, any sensational news spreads quickly.

In just one afternoon, tens of millions were aware of the tiger on Huashan.

Chu Ge and the others, deep within Huashan, saw tourists crowded on the mountain trails, some descending, others refusing to leave.

"Seriously seeking death, aren't they? A tiger appears, and they don't run?" Ye Wukong grumbled from behind a tree.

Arno said in a muffled voice, "In their eyes, it should be the tiger that's afraid of them, so their curiosity outweighs their fear."

Humans are naturally arrogant towards nature. Although there is often reflection on the damage people cause to nature and the persecution of animals, they still eat meat and keep pets as they always have.

With so many people gathered, not just one or two tigers but even a group of them wouldn't scare them off.

After all, the Guard Squad had already entered the scenic area to search.

"Wasn't King Kuihu out to kill you? What's he up to now?" Nangong asked in a low voice.

Given the situation, if Huashan was thoroughly searched, it would be difficult for any of them to escape detection.
