Chapter 460: Chapter 460: The Storm Arrives, The Last Night
When Chu Ge stared fixedly in one direction, the other mbers also noticed his gaze and turned to look, imdiately seeing the violently shaking trees on the neighboring island.
“What is that?”
Arno asked cautiously, his tone filled with tension.
Xiao Poor Thing squinted and said, “It might be sothing fighting, otherwise they would have rushed out by now.”
This speculation made sense, easing everyone’s tension a bit.
The fire was still very intense, reaching heights of four or five ters, and it was estimated no monster would dare jump into it.
...
As night continued to pass.
Chu Ge and the others remained vigilant without taking their guard down, each watching over a direction.
The woods stopped shaking, and no massive creature burst out, everything seed to have returned to calm.
But the unease in Chu Ge’s heart was so intense.
He waited patiently.
After dawn, only the last day would remain before the end of the Survival Competition.
It was around four in the morning.
“Survivor Xiao Ming has been eliminated!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Xiao Ming is dead?
What happened?
The first thing Chu Ge thought of was Xiao Ming being killed by the Sparta Group.
However, the announcent said ‘eliminated’, not ‘hunted’.
“Survival Team Sparta has been eliminated!”
Another cold female voice rang out, signaling a tragedy.
Gu Tianjiao clicked her tongue in wonder, “Land is safer after all, who knows what kind of monsters one might encounter in the Deep Sea.”
The mbers of Team Sparta were all large beasts, as big as a bus if placed in a city.
Such a formidable team had been wiped out.
Chi Lian muttered, “There were monsters moving from land to water before, could there be monsters coming out from the water?”
An Xiuluo, feeling a chill down his spine, said, “Miss, can you not be such a harbinger of doom? I’m scared.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Ge also beca worried.
In the Survival Arena, all kinds of dangers could occur.
Chu Ge couldn’t help but look toward the sea; under the darkness of night, the waves were sowhat large, but fortunately, the wind wasn’t too strong.
If the wind were strong, a storm might be brewing.
Wait!
A storm…
Chu Ge’s scalp tingled, and his body went numb.
It couldn’t be that the last night would bring a storm, could it?
If it really were a storm, that would be disastrous!
Fire would be useless!
Because of Xiao Ming’s death, everyone’s mood had beco heavy.
…
The sky gradually brightened.
As the first rays of sunlight skimd over from the edge of the sea, everyone inexplicably let out a sigh of relief.
It was as if they had survived an ordeal.
Last night, they had hardly encountered any survivors.
It was guessed that other survivors were also hiding, not daring to hunt anymore, and most of the elimination announcents were due to being wiped out.
The war had now evolved into survival teams versus the monsters of the Mysterious Islands.
The flas had not yet dissipated, so when daylight arrived, Chu Ge ordered everyone to start extinguishing the fire by shoveling sand over it.
The acrid smoke was indeed choking, and even Chu Ge felt a bit dizzy from it.
They went to the edge of the woods and began licking water off the leaves.
Sea water is salty and cannot be drunk directly, whereas rainwater is like mineral water to wild animals.
Naturally, it even has a hint of sweetness!
After quenching their thirst, the mbers did not rest imdiately but started searching through the island’s woods just to be safe.
In the woods, there were several animal corpses, all larger than mbers of their species in the wild, most likely survivors.
Besides that, not a single monster corpse was to be found.
The group-operating monsters were simply too strong, completely overpowering the survivors.
After confirming there was no danger in the woods, all mbers gathered on the beach to begin resting.
“Rest up well today, everyone. We’ll take turns sleeping for four hours each, all the way until evening, and get up at noon to catch fish for food to maintain good Physical Strength,” Chu Ge instructed.
Then they began to divide into teams.
Chu Ge had a premonition that there would be no danger during the day, but the night would bring peril.
No team had occupied last night’s stronghold, it seed that everyone had given up.
However, on the last day, the teams that hadn’t successfully occupied strongholds would probably fight desperately.
…
At noon.
Six strongholds rose again, with the nearest one right in front of Chu Ge and the others, about four or five hundred ters away on the sea surface.
Chu Ge arranged for everyone to start fishing.
Xiao Hero fished while An Xiuluo patrolled the sea from the air.
After the strongholds disappeared, just as before, no team had succeeded in occupying one.
After eating their fill, the people returned to the beach to continue resting.
There were no alerts of team annihilation, no alerts of stronghold occupation.
Everything seed so silent.
There were signs of a storm brewing.
In the afternoon.
It was Chu Ge’s turn to keep watch over the surroundings.
Arno walked back from the edge of the forest and ca to Chu Ge’s side, speaking softly, “It feels like there’s a heavy rain coming, lots of ants are moving house, forming a long line at the edge of the forest.”
A heavy rain?
Chu Ge’s eyelids twitched violently.
Damn it!
Could it really be a storm coming?
Chu Ge sighed and said, “This is big trouble, Arno, are you prepared for death?”
On hearing this, Arno couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
It was as if Chu Ge was certain he would die!
“We’ll see, let’s see who can survive until the end.”
“Hahaha, then let’s have a competition, whoever loses treats to a big al!”
“Sure, my appetite has been huge lately, I’ll eat you out of house and ho.”
“Oh please, with that little chicken belly of yours, look at the difference in our sizes.”
The two started to bicker quietly, then made a wager.
Ti continued to pass.
Soon, night fell.
Thunder rumbled—
The night sky emitted a deep thunderous roar, like a demon howling, making the atmosphere between heaven and earth extrely oppressive.
All mbers of the Suicide Group beca alert.
They began to brace themselves, ready for battle.
“A storm, this is too terrifying, should we find a cave to take shelter in?”
Xiao Poor Thing asked nervously, her eyes filled with fear as she looked at the night sky.
Chu Ge thought it was a good idea upon hearing this.
If it was a cave, they’d only need to block the entrance.
This way it wouldn’t be easy to be scattered by the storm.
General Lie Hao, Daddy’s Silhouette, Chu Ge, and Big Hair were all large beasts; taking turns blocking the entrance wouldn’t be difficult.
They imdiately sprang into action.
During these days, they had been roaming around and had spotted many caves, making them easy to find.
An hour later.
They found a cave, its entrance located halfway up the mountain amid dense weeds, which wouldn’t flood even during high tide.
The cave tunnel sloped upwards, making it easy to defend.
If the tunnel sloped downwards, monsters could easily knock them over, rolling all the way down, unstoppable.
The tunnel stretched for tens of ters, forming a spiral that reached the mountaintop, but there was no opening at the top, preventing monsters from entering and rainwater from falling in.
There were many poisonous insects inside, and as soon as Chi Lian and Arno entered, they quickly cleared the area.
The torrential rain ca, with flashes of lightning and peals of thunder.
All of them consecutively sought refuge in the cave.
“Great General and Xiao Poor Thing will stand guard at the entrance first, while we get familiar with the tunnel,” Chu Ge instructed, as a team leader, he had to take command, otherwise they would be in disarray when battle arrived.
General Lie Hao and Xiao Poor Thing had no objections, lying in front of the cave entrance, watching the forest intently.
