Chu Ge held his breath and focused, daring not to move.
There was a slight noise when that thing surged, clearly approaching him.
"No need to hide, I know where you are, co out, I have sothing to discuss with you,"
a voice ca, very indifferent, it was the Sailfish from before.
Chu Ge revealed himself and asked, "What do you want with ?"
This guy wouldn't be thinking of eating him because he hadn't gotten stronger, would he?
"Let's cooperate. All my other teammates are dead, and besides that, I'm a bit more familiar with you. Your previous actions were not out of line, barely allowing to trust you," the Sailfish replied.
Chu Ge asked with a smile, "Where do you rank in your team?"
The Sailfish didn't humble himself and snorted, "Naturally, the strongest."
Without waiting for Chu Ge to ask further, he continued, "I suppose we are both encountering this kind of situation for the first ti, how about teaming up to survive? Together, other survivors would have to think twice before they could take us on."
"By this point in the Survival Competition, most teams should only have one or two people left."
Chu Ge considered for a mont and said, "Good! Let's cooperate!"
The incident with the Silver Flower had given him so understanding of the Sailfish.
This guy probably wasn't deceiving him.
Still, just in case, he had to remain vigilant around the Sailfish.
"On the way here, I encountered a big fellow, very large, I couldn't determine its size exactly, we should be careful."
The Sailfish warned, making Chu Ge even more tense.
This guy had seen a Mosasaur.
What kind of creature that he thought was very big could it be?
A King Squid?
A Sperm Whale?
The two did not leave the place and were instead lying in ambush on the spot.
The Sailfish's goal was also to survive, not wanting to roam around.
They hid in the crevices of the rocks, three ters apart.
"If it could always be like this, that would be good."
Chu Ge thought to himself, with 29 hours left, if they were lucky, they should be able to last until the end.
They didn't communicate, maintaining silence with each other.
The atmosphere was so oppressive it was hard to breathe.
Notifications from the Survival Arena sounded from ti to ti.
Most of them were about Survival Teams being annihilated.
Chu Ge hadn't heard anything about Xiao Poor Thing being eliminated and was secretly amazed.
This girl was getting formidable!
Xiao Poor Thing hadn't killed anyone either, probably also hiding.
Being able to hide such a huge body required skill.
While Chu Ge was pondering, his body suddenly felt hot.
"What's happening?"
Chu Ge was startled, suddenly recalling the Core Flower he had eaten before; could it just now be taking effect?
He endured the discomfort, trying hard to adapt.
After a while,
the voice of the Sailfish drifted over, "Is the effect of that flower starting to show?"
Chu Ge responded with a grunt, his voice deep.
" too, I hope there won't be any price to pay, otherwise it'd all be in vain," the Sailfish replied.
Chu Ge understood his aning; if they were to pass out now and then get eaten by a marine creature, that would be the end of it.
It was no wonder; they had never expected to end up in the Deep Sea.
The two continued to endure the tornt.
They prayed that no enemy would co their way.
Chu Ge was most worried about the Mosasaur; would that creature also co to the Deep Sea?
One minute.
Ten minutes.
One hour.
Two hours.
Chu Ge felt as if his body was on fire, the sensation was unbearable.
Suddenly, he felt a coldness; he turned to look, and there was the Sailfish.
He was burning hot like a blaze, while the Sailfish was as cold as Cold Ice.
"We ate the sa thing, why are the effects different?" Chu Ge couldn't help but ask.
The Sailfish gritted his teeth in response, "Maybe it's because you ate the roots."
Chu Ge was speechless; was there such a difference?
No!
This was too uncomfortable!
Chu Ge couldn't help but move closer to Sailfish, seeking to cool down.
Similarly, Sailfish did the sa, trying to get warmth.
However, their feelings were very awkward.
After all, they were both n.
Before long, they were less than ten centiters apart, almost touching each other.
Silence.
Embarrassnt.
Chu Ge felt like he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Sailfish felt the sa way.
Chu Ge suddenly pressed against him, his scorching body eting a piece of Cold Ice, making Chu Ge let out a low cry involuntarily.
"What are you doing!"
Sailfish said sternly, his voice sowhat panicked.
Chu Ge said awkwardly, "Let's just stick together, or else I feel like I'm going to lt."
Upon hearing this, Sailfish fell silent.
Chu Ge could clearly feel Sailfish's body trembling.
"Ah, this is too damn awkward!"
Chu Ge thought to himself gloomily.
He suddenly regretted eating that Silver Flower.
"Begin awakening Survival Talent!"
A cold female voice suddenly rang out, instantly exciting Chu Ge.
Another Survival Talent?
He started to anticipate it.
At the sa ti, he found that his body temperature was no longer rising, and his muscles were sowhat painful, as if they were being seared by a branding iron, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
He didn't move away from Sailfish; he needed that piece of Cold Ice.
Sailfish didn't shift away either—it seed he needed it as well.
Ti continued to pass.
They were lucky that no large fish ca close.
About another hour passed.
Chu Ge's body suddenly lit up with a red glow, to be precise, his body was heated to redness.
Sailfish, on the other hand, radiated a faint blue glow.
"Damn it!"
Chu Ge cursed inwardly, knowing that their brightness in the dark would definitely attract many Predators.
Sailfish didn't utter a sound, probably thinking of a strategy.
Chu Ge began to burrow downward, trying to dig into the sandy bottom.
However, he found the sand to be very hard and heavy, impossible to dig through.
"Stop wasting effort, stay calm; the Talent will awaken faster that way," Sailfish finally spoke.
Upon hearing that, Chu Ge had to stop.
He began using sonar to detect all around him.
At this mont, his body temperature began to drop.
When he no longer felt hot, he quickly moved away and kept a distance from Sailfish.
However, Sailfish moved closer.
Chu Ge instinctively resisted, but thinking back to how he had been the one to approach first, retreating now didn't seem right.
He could only endure.
The heat within his body started transforming into a strange energy, flowing into every part of him.
"Survival Talent awakened successfully!"
"You have acquired the Survival Talent—Geothermal!"
"Geothermal: Sourced from the Core Flower, it allows your body temperature to rise rapidly, the heat focused in your bones will reach your limit temperature, you have acquired a special constitution, unafraid of high-temperature flas."
Geothermal!
It sounds impressive!
Chu Ge's attention was on the latter part of the sentence; he was no longer afraid of fire?
"Am I going to beco a Blazing Fla Lion?"
Chu Ge's heartbeat quickened, excitent overflowing.
He instinctively regulated the heat within his body, his figure becoming scorching once again, but this ti, he was no longer uncomfortable.
His body surface heated to redness, shining like a sun, illuminating the environnt around him.
"Ah..."
Sailfish couldn't help but let out a sound nearby.
Sha.
Chu Ge was speechless and found it amusing at the sa ti.
He began experinting with the heat within his body, the sensation was quite magical, even more so than Lion's Fury.
