Chapter 21: Attack
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Chen successfully escaped from the poisoned ants that chased after him and arrived at a safe area.
He had already run for twenty minutes. The journey was safe, and he did not encounter many monsters, so he found a relatively flat stone and sat down to rest.
While taking out the coke to replenish water and sugar in his body, he opened his character interface, wanting to know the details of the two new passive skills he had obtained.
[Name: Zhou Chen
Physique: 1.5
Agility: 1.6
Spirit: 1.6

[Giant Strength I

Your strength has been enhanced. The increase is equivalent to the increase of 0.6 physique.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Underwater Breathing I
Type: Low bronze passive skill
Your skin can continuously obtain oxygen from the water, allowing you to move in the water for a long time.]
“This Giant Strength doesn’t seem to show on the stats, but it does give me a clear feeling of increase in strength. The Underwater Breathing is quite useful. My skin doesn’t seem to have changed at all, but it can allow me to obtain oxygen in the water. From now on, I can be a great diver…”
After reading the introduction of these two passive skills, Zhou Chen had a rough idea. These two new passive skills were indeed outstanding and useful.
After drinking a few more mouthfuls of coke, he looked at the relatively quiet surroundings and continued resting.
This time, he rested for nearly an hour without any monsters disturbing him, until he heard hurried footsteps in the distance.
Zhou Chen quickly got up from the stone and looked in the direction of the footsteps.
With the vision of the Low Light Vision, a petite girl was running in panic.
“It’s Little Li? Isn’t she with Brother Wang? Why is she alone?”
Zhou Chen was puzzled. An iron rod instantly appeared in his hand.
Because the lighting in the cave was very dim, Little Li didn’t notice him until she was very near to him.
When she saw Zhou Chen sitting on the stone, she hurriedly said,
“Run! There are many worms chasing after me.”
Zhou Chen was not flustered when he heard this. He stood up and quickly walked forward with the iron rod. Not only did he not escape, but he also headed in the direction of the enemy.
He had already seen the monsters chasing Little Li. It was the kind of monster called the cave maggots that he had killed before. Its specialty was that it had a tenacious life force, but its combat strength was quite weak. He saw that there were only about 11 to 12 cave maggots, so he planned to deal with them all. Perhaps they would drop some equipment.
He had already applied corpse poison on his iron rod earlier, so he did not need to activate the corpse poison ability now. All he needed to do was wave the iron rod and beat them up.
The crawling speed of the cave maggots was not fast. After Zhou Chen easily hit the charging maggots with the iron rod, he adopted the kiting strategy and retreated while fighting.
When his iron rod broke the worm’s weak body, its body quickly turned black, and its crawling became very slow.
“As expected of the type with tenacious vitality. You didn’t die immediately after being poisoned by the corpse poison. But in this state, you are completely meat on the chopping board.”
Relying on the effects of the poison and his high agility and strength, it did not take Zhou Chen long to send all these cave maggots to the afterlife without suffering any injury.
“Boss, you’re really awesome! I couldn’t kill any of these monsters, but you finished them off so quickly!”
At this moment, the petite girl, Little Li, ran back from afar. She looked at Zhou Chen, who was crushing the maggots with the iron rod, and marveled.
“Little Li, where’s Brother Wang?”
Zhou Chen did not react to the little girl’s praise. Instead, he asked about the muscular young man, Brother Wang, who should have been with her.
“Brother Wang went to chase an invisible enemy. I couldn’t catch up to his speed and lost him.”
Little Li replied immediately.
“Invisible enemy?”
Zhou Chen half-believed her because he had encountered such a thing before.
“When did you encounter that invisible monster?”
He asked again.
“About twenty minutes ago, or maybe it was half an hour ago.”
Little Li’s sense of time seemed to be poor.
‘That is not long ago. It is quite long after I was attacked. Then, the one who attacked them might be the same as the one who attacked me.’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhou Chen thought to himself.
“By the way, how did you and Brother Wang escape from the pursuit of those flying insects?”
Zhou Chen thought of a question that interested him.
“We turned off the torchlight. Those monsters stopped chasing after us not long after we turned off the torchlight.”
Little Li replied immediately.
“It’s that simple?”
Zhou Chen was speechless. At that time, they had been chased away by those flying insects.
“Boss, there’s still a lot of time before the end of the Survival mission. Can I follow you for the time being?”
Little Li said her request.
“It’s up to you. As long as you can keep up with me, there’s no problem. Let me make this clear first, I won’t guarantee your safety. When you encounter danger, you have to rely on yourself.”
Zhou Chen explained the situation clearly. He was already thinking about when he should abandon this girl because he did not want anyone to stay by his side. That would easily expose his talent.
“Alright, I’ll do my best!”
A trace of disappointment flashed across Little Li’s face when she heard Zhou Chen’s words, but she quickly pulled herself together.
Zhou Chen did not pay much attention to her. He lay back on the stone and continued to rest.
He had already exhausted a lot of his stamina, and the drop rate of fighting monsters was too low, so he planned to not move for the time being and deal with them when the monsters came.
Seeing that this place seemed to be safer, Little Li also chose a spot that was not too far away from Zhou Chen. She was tired after running all this way.
Time passed slowly. Zhou Chen and Little Li seemed to have good luck. They had been resting here for almost an hour and were not disturbed by the monsters.
Just as Zhou Chen was feeling bored and was thinking if he should go somewhere else to take a look, he felt an unusual fluctuation in the silent air in the cave.
When he carefully observed his surroundings, he heard a muffled groan.. A line appeared on Little Li’s neck and blood spewed out as she fell to the ground.
