Chapter 75 Rule Of The Jungle
In the early morning, the secret realm became more lively. The daily predatory cycle in the jungle became active. Colorful lights from the sky illuminate the ground giving it a strange beauty that would attract anyone who sees it for the first time.
2 miles from this our main characters, there is a milky white lake, grasses that are considered a treasure in the outside World grows at the edge of the lake. This lake is sacred as it is one the biggest source of water for the beasts here. That's why there was a tacit understanding from the beasts and monsters that no fighting is allowed here.
150 kilometers from the milky white lakes is a desert, it was as big as 50 football size stadiums combined, the predatory life was fully reflected in this place. Traces of battle can be found in the whole area. The monster and beasts here usually have a sand attribute that gave them an advantage when fighting.
Just like in the periphery, a tussel and earthworm are fighting. The two monsters are as enormous as a city. Even bigger than the previous leopard that the MCs have faced. This two ranked among the middle upper in the food chain. Although they don't have a transformation ability like the leopard. Their basic stats had already reached S rank.
The two are exchanging attacks from time to time, and the two of them cause devastation to the surroundings, as cracks in the ground kept accumulating as they fight.
The Tussel has nine sharp fangs with traces of black liquid, its body was brown white and has spikes that would deter an enemy to attack it. It looked at its opponent with brutality fitting a wild beast.
In this area, the rule of the jungle is strong. The strong eat for the weak.
Opposite it was the Earth Worm, which has a thick shell that helps it to ignore lethal attacks. Only a blunt weapon would give it a sufficient blow by damaging its internal organs.
Earth Worms are known in the secret realm for their crazy vitality that nearly makes them undying. Every they are wounded or their body parts cut. They would regenerate from it instantly. Their originally strong defense combined with their regeneration makes them difficult to kill. But as the balance from nature, their attack power isn't as strong as their defense. That's why even though it can fight the Tussel for longer periods. It was almost impossible to have an advantage.
The Tussel who was known for its speed and lethal attacks, the tussel crazily attacked the Earth Worm. The claws manage to put a dent in the Earth Worm's shell but that's it.
The Earth Worm was planning to exhaust the Tussel to death using stamina to its advantage. While the Tussel intends to attack one spot on the Earth Worms shell continuously until it broke.
Just like that, the two continues their fight exchanging attacks, the Earth Worms controlled the soil in the ground to condense the spear, but the Tussel expertly avoided it.
Brown light flickered on the claws its claws, it was the Tussel's trump card that it dared to fight the Earth Worm.
You have to know that all the monsters in the lower realm dreaded facing the Earth Worm because it is futile. Except for the monsters at the top of the food chain. The rest below it are helpless against the absolute defense of the Earth Worm.
The tussel only dared to fight the Earth Worm because it gained an ability to strengthen its claws, giving it a special property of armor penetration that let it ignore 50% of any physical defense.
Just like that, the seemingly indestructible myth was broken today. The shell of Earth Worm where the Tussel kept attacking finally burst open from the continuous bombardment of the Tussel. The accumulated damage on it and the last blow with armor penetration successfully penetrated the shell. Green blood spewed like a fountain as the Earth Worm howled miserably in pain. It wiggled on the ground madly, as time passed, its movement became slower until it finally stopped moving. The tussle ate the raw meat of the Earth Worm cherishing its victory against the infamous Earth Worm.
...
Fein woke up from his meditation as the dazzling rainbow light came to his face. He opened his calm eyes and glanced at the surrounding. The leaves of the trees are scattered on the ground. Voli was still sleeping comfortably like a dead dog. Sofia was already organizing the sleeping materials used.
"Good morning!" Sofia smiled sweetly after seeing Fein open his eyes.
Fein took a deep breath of fresh air, as the morning breeze brought a cool sensation to his skin.
He smiled at Sofia and greeted him back. "Good morning"
Fein retrieved fruits that he got from the trees and threw them at Sofia gently.
"Taste it, the fruit here is tasty "
Sofia carefully took the fruit that was flying in her direction. The fruit is red, there is a green dot in the center. It was the first time she saw this kind of fruit with a cute appearance. She bit the apple, a sweet juice poured into her mouth. It tastes like a fresh apple that she usually eats at her home but sweeter.
She felt suddenly relaxed as the energy of vitality flowed through her body.
"Wow, where did you get this?" Sofia asked.
"It was in this tree, there are a lot of good things here, I want to collect herbs" Fein pointed at the fruits with similar appearances near him.
While they were roaming yesterday, Fein already noticed various useful herbs and fruits that had different magical effects. He tried a herb yesterday and he felt that his surroundings became more colorful. The smell in the air became more distinct and he can even identify each smell and categorize them. His hearing now has reached at least 80 meters, he can identify footsteps even with that distance. It was inconceivable what benefits the glowing green herbs gave him.
For Fein, this Secret Realm is simply a treasure land and a food paradise! He was even more determined to explore the wonders and mysteries of this place.
