Chapter 25: Danger Was Close
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After traveling for more than six hours on Tyrant, it was getting dark as stars lit up in the sky.
The journey was smooth-sailing. Lin Huang and fatty were not attacked by any people.
Perhaps Tyrant was the reason why. Pure Gold Desert was a Grade-1 wild zone and there would not be any monsters that were over iron-level.
Tyrant was an iron-level rank-3, it was a creature on top of the food chain and other predators would try their best to avoid it.
It was hot during the day and most of the predators would choose to hibernate or rest.
When the sun sets, the temperature would drop and they would go out to hunt. It would be a dumb move if Lin Huang was to travel at night.
With Tyrant, they had ample time to get to their destination so there was no need for them to travel at night.
After he recalled Tyrant, Lin Huang summoned his second Sand Monster.
Fatty saw that Lin Huang summoned another monster, he was stunned.
“Bro, how many monsters do you really have?”
“That’s a secret.” Lin Huang did not even turn around when he answered fatty while he built the tent.
“Why did you not buy a portable tent? It’s so troublesome to build it from scratch.” Fatty sat on a rock while watching Lin Huang build the tent.
“I’m poor, I can’t afford that.”This content belongs to novelhulk.com, if the content is missing please go to novelhulk.com website to read the full content
What Lin Huang said was the truth.
The portable tent that fatty mentioned was inspired by an armored piece of equipment. Its price was nothing less than an iron-level equipment.
A few days ago, Lin Huang could not afford that at all.
But it sounded ridiculous to fatty.
“I would believe you if you can’t afford to trade your Life Crystals to get to iron-level. But if you tell me you can’t even afford a portable tent, that’s nonsense! I must visit your house one day to see how poor you are. If you really can’t afford a portable tent, I would spend all I have to help you to get to iron-level!” Fatty thought Lin Huang was exaggerating so he promised him that.
For a normal person to get to iron-level, it would require more than 200 million credit points to activate all the gray columns in Life Wheel.
200 million credit points were a lot, that was the reason why most of the people in this world could not get to iron-level.
Lin Huang laughed when he heard what fatty said, “You don’t need to look at my house. When we’re done with the assessment, I’ll bring you to the Credit Bureau to show you my bank book. You’d definitely believe me by then.”
Lin Huang got the Sand Monster to watch over the night while he went into his tent.
Fatty was fixing the tent clumsily.
Half an hour later, fatty built a distorted tent and there were still parts on the floor.
He lost his tolerance and went into the incomplete tent anyway while he tried really hard to close the tent.
Due to the sandstorm the night before, he did not get a good rest. Soon he fell asleep.
Hearing fatty’s snore from not far away, Lin Huang smiled as he shook his head.
This fatty was such a naive guy, letting his guard down when he was with Lin Huang. He fell asleep immediately.
“This fella must be exhausted…”
As Lin Huang had a good rest last night, he was not sleepy even though he was tired.
Sleepiness only kicked in in the middle of the night.
As the night went on, the desert became colder.
Before dawn, there was a layer of frost on the ground.
Under two full purple moons, the desert was calm.
Suddenly, the Sand Monster who was sitting in front of the tent seemed to smell something.
It started to sniff its surrounding and looked to the direction where it identified the source of the smell.
Although it could not see clearly what it was because it was far away, it could see that something was approaching them at an alarming pace.
It stood up immediately and screamed into the tent.
“Ahh woo! Ahh woo! Ahh woo!”
Lin Huang managed to fall asleep for only two hours before hearing the Sand Monster’s scream outside. He sat up immediately.
He did not even remove his clothes and shoes as he was worried that there would be such incidents.
He opened the tent and looked, shocked when he looked at the direction the Sand Monster was pointing at.
He then walked to the fatty’s tent.
After several failed attempts to open his tent, he took out his sword from storage and cut the tent open.
He slapped the fatty on his face, “Wake up fatty, we’ll be dead if you continue sleeping!”
