I still found it very annoying as he looked at a fallen tree blocking his path. Casually, he waved his hand, which was adorned with beautiful golden rings set with glowing red gems, on each finger. Instantly, a strong gust of wind surged, blowing the tree away as if it weighed nothing. Several nearby trees and grasses swayed violently, disrupting the peaceful, surreal forest atmosphere.
Xu Luo frowned, still irritated. "While Truck-kun or that ugly green monster killed people... I died by falling down the stairs." He paused and added, "Seriously... where is that even done?"
Turning slightly, he saw animals hiding behind a tree, trembling from the monstrous gust he had just released. He sighed and began to narrate his experience. "First, everything was pitch black." "Until I opened my eyes." What welcomed him then was a damp forest, the air moist and leaves covered in dew. Tall trees encircled him, their blue-green leaves high above. Confused and naked, he found himself standing amidst the foliage, his dignity exposed.
"So I had to make some clothes," he muttered, recalling how he gathered leaves and tied them together, which was uncomfortable but necessary.
As the saying goes, "Yakubu has to manage." He decided to make do and look for a way out.
But then I realized he was in an unfamiliar, expansive forest with strange trees—green leaves and deep blue trunks—and no idea where he was. Lacking guidance or signs of civilization, I chose to stay put, hoping someone might come for me or rescue me.
Days passed—one,
two,
three—and by the fourth day, my stomach twisted with hunger, and my throat burned with thirst.
I had nothing but droplets of water collecting on the strange blue leaves. By the fifth day, the hunger was unbearable, leading him to the unthinkable: Yes, I ate my own decaying poop, buzzing with flies—something that still makes my stomach churn. It was the most disgusting thing I had ever done in my life, but the hunger drove me to do the impossible. For water, I licked droplets off the blue leaves. It was bitter and strange, but it kept me alive. Days went on, and eventually, my body stopped producing any sustenance, ruining my survival plan. With no food or water, I later realized that waiting for rescue was pointless—no one was coming. Finally, I abandoned hope and left the forest to find a way out.
Well, I started my journey with a small wooden trunk that had a base, where I kept my water. I had even started the journey, but I already regretted it. I was chased by monsters at first. It was a bear with what looked like a white arrow on its head and a red gem placed at the center. The bear had long claws, and I witnessed those same claws cutting a shrub in half with one swing, i managed to escape by running away, there was another monster, it was a huge white snake sleeping on a rock, i quietly walked past it, but i stepped on a branch half was through, I looked at the snake, it was still asleep i turned forward and heaved a sigh of relief. Still, the release quickly disappeared as I felt movement behind me. I was shaking like a rat caught in a trap, shivering down my body. I turned to see that the snake was still sleeping, but this time its huge mouth was open, exposing its long tongue and big fangs. Looking at it, I immediately popped, I had not eaten breakfast, but the fear of being breakfast dominated, so I left the food, I mean poop, behind.
After trying to survive the onslaught of monsters for several hours, I became very hungry. Yes, I was hungry in a forest that wanted to eat me. I then began my hunt for food in this new world. I searched and searched, but I couldn't find any. Well, I should be grateful that the forest still had some of those weird trees; if not, I would have died of thirst instead of being eaten, that would be even more embarrassing, dying of thirst. After several minutes, I stumbled upon some fruits; they looked weird, like malnourished pears, but at that point, I didn't really care and just ate them. Well, i regretted that again cause that fruit ,as i later learnt was called tum-tum fruit, it causes unbearable pain in the abdomen when eaten, that explained why my tummy hurt for weeks, but after eating the fruit I could poop again so I got two food for the price of one and a week of pain and that's what i called a win-win.
Well, after weeks of avoiding man-eating monsters and surviving the effects of eating unknown fruits, I came across a group of people, well,to be more specific, it was a carriage that was under attack, and two men were trying to protect the carriage with their swords. They were attacked by three men, two of whom were thin and slightly short, while the last one was a big guy who stood between the small guys, who wore barbaric clothing and held a curved sword.
One of the goons (i.e., goon on the left side of the big guy we're gonna call him L-goon)pointed his sword at them, "hahaha, it's our lucky day, two first-stage foundation establishment realm warriors guarding a carriage, there must be something being protected there".
The soldier holding their spears pointed at them in a protective stance," You must be courting death, cause despite knowing this, u dear attack us". The soldiers stood bravely. Then the one on the right said," Huh, courting death, it's you that's courting death."
Then L-Goon said, "Yes, this is the second in command of the green band bandit group, and in the second stage of nascent soul realm. The Killer of many, Hong Chug (pointing at the fat guy), "
"Huh, you mean the Hong Chug, the one who murdered three 3rd stage of scarlet soul realm, while he was a first reamer himself?" "What do you mean by that, Hong Chug? and he is now in the foundation establishment stage," the other said
Then Hong Chug, standing tall, holding his word over his shoulder by letting the blunt curved part rest on his shoulder, said with pride," Yes, it is I, Hong Chug, killer of many, now hand over the goods unless you want to perish. "Then the two guards said, "Never."
Hong Chug gave a manic smile.
"Yes,"( he said, his eyes glowing red and his body emitting a red aura surrounding him ), he ran towards one and swung his sword down on the closest soldier, who blocked it. Still, the impact cracked the ground underneath him as he struggled to defend. A kick came from Hong Chug on his stomach, sending him flying, smashing a tree. The other soldier had disappeared, making Hung Chug look around him in shock. Then, footsteps are heard, and a silent voice echoes.
Spear Technique Piercing Head strike
The spear had struck Hong Chug on the left side of his head, but it had caused a slight bleeding on his head. Hong Chug gave an even wider maniacal smile; the soldier was stunned.
"That's impossible, this attack could damage a shelled D rank beast ", he said in fear. Hong Chug looked at him and, with his hand, grabbed the soldier by his head and lifted him.
Then L-Goon said, "Hahaha, did u think that your weak attack could do anything to him? Hong Chug had mastered the iron body technique and had killed a B-ranked beast with his bear hands. You could say it's luck your weak attack made him bleed slightly."
The other soldier had just stood up, balancing on his sword, coughed out blood, "ha!!!!", he screamed, but Hong Chug threw the one in his hand at the screaming soldier, causing them to slam the same tree again, breaking it in the process.
While all this was happening, Xu Luo was hiding behind a tree, mouth closed, trembling in fear, "What the fuck was that?" he thought.
The big guy started smoking red fumes and got really tough, and the other guy, whom I could feel but couldn't see him and shit, covered his head in fear that the other guy just got thrown into a tree, and the only thing that happened was that he spilled out a little blood.
Screaming inside," Where the hell am I?!!!"
