"Assess."
[Corpse of ????]
[Feather of ????]
Goodness gracious.
Lin Yue didn’t expect that spending 2 evolution points would still fail to identify the na of this Monster Winged Dragon.
He initially thought the system was almost omnipotent, but it seed to be stumped by these monsters.
Could it be unable to recognize dead bodies?
His spear easily cut off so of the flesh near the feathers on the already decomposing and softening wings of the Monster Winged Dragon.
Then, he layered a thick roll of toilet paper, pulling out feather after feather.
[You have obtained Feather X1 of ????]
The system’s notification kept ringing, but aside from plucking feathers, Lin Yue was also continuously observing his surroundings.
The Secret Realm was full of perils, especially... the bugs that might erge from this hotel at any mont.
Boom...
And why are there so many rumbling sounds? Is there a thunderstorm sowhere?
He stood up and scanned the distance, but his view was almost entirely blocked by tall trees.
Furthermore, the light on this rainy day was really insufficient.
After collecting nearly three hundred feathers, Lin Yue glanced at the plucked clean corpses of the two Monster Winged Dragons and the unrecognizable bones, before heading back with Bai in tow.
He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but he always felt the ground shuddering along with the occasional thunder.
The soles of his shoes pressed against the increasingly slippery ground, while the raindrops beca more concentrated.
The sporadic thunder always gave Lin Yue an inexplicable sense of unease.
However, just as they returned near the restroom, Bai suddenly squeaked, "Pujii!"
Lin Yue was instantly covered in goosebumps, quickly leaning against the wall!
"Bai, what on earth..."
Boom...
However, before Lin Yue could finish, a sound like sothing colliding with the ground, accompanied by intense vibrations, swept through!
Simultaneously, there was also the sound of what seed to be a building collapsing reverberating in his ears!
This sound was so close that Lin Yue couldn’t help but keep Bai firmly by his side.
Boom...
Boom...
One thudding sound after another seed to reveal its true nature.
It was neither thunder nor an earthquake.
The arrhythmic vibrations continued to approach in this direction.
Lin Yue opened his eyes wide, suddenly slling a strange stench in the air.
Simultaneously, a noise like an animal breathing was clearly audible!
It was getting closer!
Lin Yue’s heart raced, and he was certain now that the source of these vibrations was definitely not so small creature, but instead...
"Wheee-aaw!"
A deafening roar pierced through the rain, prompting Lin Yue to look upwards.
A massive shadow, alongside several large trees collapsing nearby, was mirrored in his pupils.
A bright lightning bolt streaked across.
The silhouette of a gigantic monster flashed montarily in the white light, leaving an indelible mark in Lin Yue’s heart!
"This, what in the world is this..."
Eight gigantic bone legs, standing over ten ters tall, towered above the entire forest. Covered in a keratinous shell, they supported a mountain-like massive body.
Each slow stride erupted with resounding booms, heavy and uncoordinated, but they crushed the ground into crater after crater.
Lin Yue watched as giant trees collapsed en masse, but the creature ignored them, trampling over them and extending a pair of gigantic claw-like limbs to stuff the felled trees into a gigantic maw filled with disgusting, soft tentacles.
Lightning flashed endlessly, and as the monster headed straight for the Tokyo Tower, those eyes inset in a skull resembling a sheep’s did not give even a second’s notice to a human being standing aghast next to the gray-brown cent building beneath its colossal presence!
The booming continued ceaselessly.
The gigantic creature vanished into the forest beyond, while the tallic shrieks of Tokyo Tower’s steel girders twisting and collapsing stirred up a turbulent current that raged against everything.
Lin Yue, holding Bai, sprinted through the downpour toward the direction of the Ancient Gate with all his might.
He didn’t even know how he made it to the gate, but, at breakneck speed, he pushed open the Ancient Gate, bursting back into a Otherworld enshrouded in the red hues of twilight.
Soaked to the bone, he dashed toward the stone gate of the barricade, Bai following closely behind.
Neither of them uttered a single word.
Even after shedding his drenched clothes and returning to the safety of the Shelter, Lin Yue and Bai maintained their earlier state.
The impact of the colossal monster they had just encountered hadn’t dissipated from their hearts.
After a while.
The light outside gradually dimd, and Bai snuggled up to Lin Yue.
Lin Yue wiped the sweat beading on his forehead, taking a deep breath.
He patted Bai’s head, handing him a skewer of grilled lamb.
"Pujii, Pujii!" Bai didn’t eat it but instead circled around Lin Yue several tis, occasionally hopping, seemingly trying to lift Lin Yue’s spirits.
"Bai, it’s alright, I’m just a bit shaken." Lin Yue also took out a skewer, forcing it down, and only after Bai saw him eat, did it consu its own portion.
Lin Yue let out a long breath.
Indeed, the shock was too imnse.
A gigantic creature in the rain beyond imagination, no one watching from such a close range would remain unaffected.
After all, back on the Earth where Lin Yue used to live, the tallest animal he’d ever co across was a giraffe.
And here cos one right away with eight legs, each over ten ters tall, how about that.
Was there ever such a thing on Earth? Absolutely not, right?
It felt as if creatures from the Otherworld had infiltrated Earth.
It even made Lin Yue illusionarily think the Secret Realm might not be Earth decades in the future, but the spoils taken from there unmistakably bore Earth’s imprint.
Nonetheless, having left the Secret Realm, Lin Yue gradually regained so vigor as considerable ti had passed.
After departing the Shelter, Lin Yue noticed it was nearly nightfall outside.
After checking the outer gate’s integrity, he set up a trap by the door, which was interconnected with dozens more within.
He carefully hamred shattered pieces of glass collected into fragnts, gathering and placing them atop the barricade.
[You upgraded the stone barricade, damage 100%]
Not bad, it was recognized by the system as expected.
After swiftly setting up all the barricades, Lin Yue temporarily achieved a barrier much sturdier than before.
In a sense, it almost had an impregnable defense!
"Pujii!" Inside, Bai was bouncing around energetically, seemingly burning off energy.
Looks like it ate too much before setting out.
Back in the Shelter, Lin Yue began preparing dinner.
And in a few hours, the second wave of calamity would reveal itself!
...
