Survival Arena

Chu Ge once again arrived at the mouth of the cave, where pandemonium had already ensued outside.

Many Survivors began searching along the mountain walls for suitable prey, ready to dart into the caves if the Mosasaur appeared.

Chu Ge couldn't help but marvel at the cunning of the Survival Arena.

Such mountain walls were clearly designed to create loopholes for the Survivors to continue their savage combat.

Chu Ge noticed that the Sailfish were also hunting.

This was madness.

Chu Ge quietly observed.

Every Survivor who had made it this far had their own strengths, so the battles with other Survivors weren't as instantly lethal as Chu Ge's previous encounter and required more of a fight.

A moment passed.

Another Survivor set his sights on Chu Ge.

It was a large fish resembling a lizard, with fins atop its head, on its back, and at its limb joints, and a body colored in dark green.

Chu Ge, frightened, immediately scrambled back into the cave.

"Little dolphin, don't be scared, big brother will be gentle,"

the dark green fish sneered as it swam into the cave.

Ten seconds later.

"Ahh—"

The dark green fish's scream of agony rang out, but the nearby Survivors were too busy with their own killing sprees to pay any attention to it.

Inside the cave.

"You have successfully hunted an enemy and earned 200 Survival Points!"

"Since this Survivor had already killed three enemies, you receive an additional 300 Survival Points!"

Chu Ge's body, which had turned red from the heat, quickly cooled down, and he returned to normal, swimming away from the roasted fish.

"Indeed! They all carry the lives of other Survivors on their backs!"

Chu Ge felt a surge of excitement, his previous fear cast to the winds.

He was determined to kill the enemy!

He returned to the cave mouth once again, continuing to wait for a Survivor's notice.

At that moment,

the terrifying Mosasaur suddenly descended from above, its huge body compressing the seawater and causing the Survivors lingering near the cave entrance to smash against the mountain wall.

As the Survivors turned their heads to look, they almost wet themselves in fear.

The Mosasaur opened its gaping maw, its toothy grin, sharp as knives, was a thing to be feared.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Survivors swiftly hid inside the caves.

Some mistakenly entered caves occupied by other Survivors and clashes ensued.

Chu Ge sized up the Mosasaur.

This Mosasaur appeared even more majestic than those in documentaries, its skin resembling a layer of impregnable armor, giving off an overwhelming sense of solidity.

As soon as the Mosasaur appeared, the Survivors started behaving again.

This time, however, the Mosasaur didn't leave.

It began to swim around the mountain wall, as if waiting for prey to burst forth from the caves.

Before long, the Mosasaur passed by the mouth of Chu Ge's cave.

In the clear light, having seen the Mosasaur up close, Chu Ge wasn't as frightened of it anymore.

No matter how strong the Mosasaur, it couldn't possibly burrow its way in.

With a thunderous boom!

The Mosasaur suddenly charged toward a cave entrance ten meters away, causing rocks to fly and the water to churn, shaking the entire mountain.

Chu Ge watched, dumbstruck.

Looking at the Mosasaur, its body half-covered by the torrents and debris, his heart nearly leaped out of his throat.

This creature could actually burrow into caves!

The other Survivors were also terrified.

"How is that possible! It's head can't be that hard, can it?"

"You must be joking!"

"Is the Mosasaur really that fierce?"

"This is bad, we're not safe in the caves either."

"Run!"

The Survivors shouted one after another, and instantly three Survivors burst forth from their caves, swimming upward, attempting to escape over the mountaintop.

Chu Ge also emerged from the cave, but he did not run away; instead, he swam in another direction, quickly finding a cave to dive into.

"Heh heh heh, which poor sod has entered my cave, come on in and meet your death!"

An arrogant voice echoed from the depths of the cave, filled with scorn.

Chu Ge, upon hearing this, immediately sensed the presence of a powerful adversary.

He directly cranked up his body heat, entering a Geothermal state, his body glowing red-hot.

When he felt his body boiling, he immediately charged in.

Turning the corner of the cave passage, Chu Ge saw a sea snake inside, shivering intensely.

This sea snake was less than thirty centimeters long, very thin; it felt like it could be torn in half with a mere tug.

Huh?

A strong one?

Without a second thought, Chu Ge charged forward.

Accompanied by a blood-curdling scream,

Chu Ge had killed yet another enemy.

"You have successfully hunted a Survivor, earning 200 Survival Points!"

"As this Survivor had already killed an enemy, you gain an additional 100 Survival Points!"

Chu Ge was surprised; could this thing actually kill enemies?

He couldn't be bothered to think more and quickly turned to leave.

The mountain was still shaking, indicating that the Mosasaur was still burrowing.

"Ah—"

Suddenly, a horrifying scream came from outside, followed by several more screams.

Chu Ge was startled and slowed down.

He poked his head out of the cave entrance, and the scene he witnessed nearly gave him goosebumps.

A line of darkness had appeared at the top of the surrounding mountains.

Upon closer inspection, it was countless black fish, surrounding four Survivors who were being turned into skeletons at a visibly fast rate.

The white bones stood out conspicuously amidst the swarm of black fish.

Piranhas!

That's the first thing that came to Chu Ge's mind.

But upon further thought, it didn't seem right.

They were not humans now but ocean creatures.

He looked around, and saw the tops of every mountain covered with a dark mass of mysterious black fish.

A sea turtle was swimming upward with all its might, trying to make it directly to the surface.

The creature was fast, its speed now on par with a shark's at full throttle.

However, from the peaks in all directions, countless black fish swarmed toward it like an army of locusts, their speed much faster than the turtle's.

"No—"

The sea turtle let out a pitiful cry, but before the sound could trail off, it was overwhelmed by the black fish.

After its cry abruptly ended, in less than two seconds, the black fish dispersed, leaving a turtle shell sinking down.

Chu Ge was silent.

The other Survivors hiding at different cave openings were also silent.

Beneath the silence was fear, was despair.

"A narrow escape..."

Chu Ge murmured, only now truly understanding the meaning of these words.

He had a phrase on the tip of his tongue, unsure if he should express it.

Beside him a Mosasaur burrowed through rock, above him, a demonic flock of fish lay in wait to pounce; it was a dead end!

All the Survivors combined couldn't satisfy either the Mosasaur or the swarm of fish.

Waiting for them to be sated and leave was utterly impossible!

"What to do... what to do..."

Chu Ge's mind was in turmoil; he didn't know if his Change Color Ability would help him slip by.

It seemed the Mosasaur could sniff out unconventional life forms.

Even if he changed color inside the cave, if that creature charged in and collapsed the cave, he would still be crushed to death.

As for escaping with his Change Color Ability, he wasn't sure if the black fish wouldn't notice him.

He was the only one left in the Undaunted Team; he couldn't be reckless.

Moreover, he had already earned so many Survival Points.

To die now would be such a waste.

He calculated that he had, so far, accumulated a total of 4850 Survival Points!

If he could just survive to the end, this round would earn him more than 5000 Survival Points!

Just the thought of it drove him crazy.

It was as if Diao Chan was caressing your chest in her arms, yet Lv Bu's Fangtian Huaji (Halberd) was pressing against the nape of your neck.

Frustrating!

Rumbling—

The mountain shook more violently; Chu Ge caught sight of the Mosasaur retreating from the rock face, which scared him so much he immediately retracted back into the cave.
