After learning of the existence of Lizard People, Chu Ge had been hoping to encounter them.
He was very curious about what they would be like.
It might be dangerous, but if they couldn't beat them, they could run.
If "Fingertip Cigarette" could escape, then naturally they could as well.
They couldn't dare to move too quickly as they moved through the dark night.
They had no idea how much ti had passed.
All of a sudden, Xiao Poor Thing stopped, startling Chu Ge, Arno, and Gu Tianjiao into halting as well.
"What's wrong?" Arno asked anxiously.
Xiao Poor Thing replied, "There's a terrible sll up ahead."
"And then?"
"Let's take a detour."
Arno gave Xiao Poor Thing a glare. If they needed to detour, then just detour. Why stop so suddenly?
Trying to scare people to death?
Just as they were about to make way, a large throng of animals burst out of the darkness in front of them, all skunks.
The four of them, Chu Ge included, hurriedly took cover behind a nearby large rock.
The skunks were frantically fleeing, jumping over the rock, not attacking the four of them.
One by one, the skunks leaped by their sides and over their heads in an unending stream.
"Why are there so many skunks? Could there be so kind of disaster ahead?" Xiao Poor Thing asked through clenched teeth.
An escape of animals on such a grand scale was definitely related to a natural disaster.
Chu Ge had a bad feeling and quickly said, "Escape! Follow them!"
After he spoke, he leaped up and joined the great skunk army.
Arno, Gu Tianjiao, and Xiao Poor Thing followed closely behind.
As they ran, they looked back.
In the dark night, they only saw each skunk slow down, and then in the blink of an eye, turn into white bones.
An ant disaster!
It was definitely an ant disaster!
The ants were too small, so it was very difficult to spot them in the darkness.
A brigade of ants numbering in the billions marched on mightily, and any creature swallowed by them would be gnawed to white bones in a short ti.
"As I thought, an ant disaster!"
Arno cursed softly, his voice filled with fear.
The speed of the ant army was just too fast; they could hear the skunks' screams behind them.
Other animals they passed were also startled and joined the great stampede of skunks, fleeing together.
"Follow !"
Xiao Poor Thing called out and then changed direction, distancing themselves from the skunk brigade.
Chu Ge, Arno, and Gu Tianjiao tightly followed her.
After running for a while.
They noticed the noise behind them had subsided.
The ant disaster hadn't followed them but continued to pursue the skunk brigade.
The group slowed their pace, jogging while they talked.
"Tsk tsk, did their queen dig into that bunch of skunks?"
Chu Ge marveled with a tsk-tsk laugh. It was his first ti seeing so many skunks gathered into such a large group.
Running like that, the stench had truly filled the sky!
"Who knows, it's probably very likely." Gu Tianjiao responded.
She frowned, apparently deep in thought.
"I sll Xiao Hero!"
All of a sudden, Xiao Poor Thing said excitedly, and then sped up.
Upon hearing this, the three people, Chu Ge included, quickly accelerated to catch up.
Ten minutes later.
They finally saw Xiao Hero.
Xiao Hero was lying on a smooth large rock, wings gone, his feathers clumped together by dried blood, looking extrely tragic.
Seeing his pitiful state, Xiao Poor Thing couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
"What happened?" Chu Ge stepped forward and asked with a frown.
Xiao Hero opened his eyes with difficulty and said, "Quick, leave this place... hurry..."
His words sent an inexplicable chill down their spines.
Chu Ge imdiately picked him up and, along with Gu Tianjiao, Arno, and Xiao Poor Thing, fled the area.
It was at that mont.
Figures leapt down from the trees, their movents incredibly agile as they swiftly surrounded them.
Chu Ge fixed his gaze on them.
They were actually Lizard n!
These Lizard n stood on two feet, humanoid in shape, yet each one was two ters tall, dragging their tails on the ground.
They flicked their forked tongues, their eyes resembling those of venomous snakes.
"Caught more prey!"
The One-Eyed Lizard Man leading them sneered, clutching a Wooden Spear as he approached Chu Ge.
Of the four, Chu Ge looked the most threatening.
"Wait, who exactly are you? Survivors? Or creatures of the rainforest?" Gu Tianjiao hurriedly asked.
These Lizard n were covered in tiny nodules, giving them a frightening appearance.
The One-Eyed Lizard Man sneered, "The sa question again, I'll tell you, we are the New Humanity, surpassing Survivors. We are the darlings of the Survival Arena, and you are just food and toys thrown to us by the Survival Competition!"

Having said that, he raised his Wooden Spear, ready to stab it into Gu Tianjiao's eyes.
Chu Ge instinctively blocked in front of Gu Tianjiao.
Thud!
The Wooden Spear pierced into Chu Ge's flesh, causing him great pain and contorting his face.
This guy was incredibly strong!
He easily broke through Chu Ge's skin defense!
What was most astonishing was that the Wooden Spear didn't break.
Arno, enraged, lunged at one of the Lizard n, tearing and biting wildly, attracting the other Lizard n to gather around, attempting to kill him.
Under the cover of night, Chu Ge and the others were like trapped beasts, at any mont they could be brutally killed.
Chu Ge scanned the area and saw at least twenty Lizard n blocking all directions, making escape difficult.
If it were just him, it would have been manageable: he could use Raging Fla Separation to break through the encirclent.
But he had Xiao Hero in his mouth.
To think of escape now, he could only abandon Xiao Hero.
"Kill ,"
Xiao Hero's weak voice ca through.
Clearly, he had been tortured by the Lizard n for a long while.
Chu Ge let go of him, ready to sacrifice him.
Just at that mont!
A noise broke the silence, and a Wild Boar standing two ters tall at the shoulder burst from the darkness, stabbing one of the Lizard n with its tusk-like fangs. It shook its head violently and continued its attack on the others.
The One-Eyed Lizard Man's face paled as he cried out in horror, "Retreat!"
He promptly led the Lizard n to retreat.
The Wild Boar didn't pursue but turned to look at Chu Ge and his group.
"Are you new here? You even saved a team mber who has lost the ability to fight,"
The Wild Boar mocked, leaving them speechless.
Arno struggled to get up from the ground, having been beaten by a group of Lizard n. Even with his remarkable defensive power, he was suffering.
These Lizard n were just too strong!
"Are you a Survivor?" Chu Ge hesitantly asked.
"Hmm, fend for yourselves. Next ti we et, I will treat you as prey,"
The Wild Boar turned and left, its robust body forcing the underbrush to part.
"What's your na?" Chu Ge called after him.
"Jianghu Wanderer."
Chu Ge was stunned.
The second-ranked Jianghu Wanderer on the power list!
Gu Tianjiao shook her head, "Is this the chivalry of a Jianghu Wanderer?"
"Let's leave quickly before those Lizard n co back," Arno urged.
The recent battle had left him a bit shaken.
Chu Ge once again picked up Xiao Hero and followed Xiao Poor Thing as the three of them quickly retreated.
All the way, he pondered the words of the One-Eyed Lizard Man.
New Humanity, surpassing Survivors?
So these Lizard n were originally humans?
Why had they beco like this?
The more Chu Ge thought about it, the more horrified he felt.
He certainly didn't want to beco a Lizard Man.
"I heard them say before that they were originally Adjudicators..." Xiao Hero said with difficulty.
