Shan Hai Jing: Evolution from Mantis

The snake was so beautiful that it was in great danger.

The white, slender figure was covered with white scales with ice blue, and its eyes were like two black glass beads, bright and shining.

It looked... a little cute.

Su Chen stared at the white snake in front of him in a daze, with a look of surprise on his face.

Oh my goodness, there was a snake next to his pillow when he woke up.

It was a good thing that he was not an ordinary person, otherwise he would be scared to death.

It was also a good thing that the little snake did not make him aware of the danger, otherwise he would have subconsciously condensed a wind blade and chopped it off.

"Hmm?"

Facing Su Chen's gaze, the little snake tilted its head, with a puzzled look on its face, and then twisted its body to get close to Su Chen's face, spitting out its snake tongue and licking it.

They looked very close.

"I was wondering why my face felt wet. You licked it, didn't you?"

Seeing this, Su Chen pulled the little snake away and held it in his hand.

The little snake's skin was smooth, and it wrapped around Su Chen's wrist, rubbing against Su Chen's skin.

Su Chen touched the little snake's head with his index finger and asked curiously. "Tell me, little guy, where did you come from?"

The little guy blinked his big eyes, looking unintelligent.

Seeing this, Su Chen had no choice but to look around, trying to find traces of the little snake's sneaking in.

However, when he saw the egg crumbs on the pillow, he suddenly realized.

"So you have already hatched..."

Some surprises.

Also some surprises.

I didn't expect the timing of the little snake's hatching to be so clever, just on the day of the public beta.

Holding the little snake, Su Chen's eyes flickered with light, and he activated the magic eye, and the little snake's information immediately appeared in his mind.

[The white snake with special blood is born with the ability to exhale cold air, but because it was just born, its strength is weak. ]

"Special blood?"

Seeing this information, Su Chen's eyes flickered, but he was not too surprised.

This little snake came from the secret realm in the game, and it was obviously extraordinary. It was normal for it to have some strange places.

Now he didn't really care about the origin of the little snake. He would know it in the future when he should know it.

In comparison, he was actually happier about the birth of the little snake.

"I won't be lonely in the future, haha."

Su Chen laughed.

The location of the villa is indeed quiet, but it is inevitable that one will feel lonely for a long time. It feels good to have a little snake to accompany and keep it as a pet.

"Well, since you keep it as a pet, let's give you a name."

Su Chen nodded the little snake's head and asked.

The little snake rubbed on Su Chen's fingers, and it didn't seem to understand at all.

Seeing this, Su Chen smiled. "If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. Hmm... You're all white. From now on, I'll call you Xiaobai."

"Hmm~"

The little snake still didn't understand, but just opened its mouth and made a call that was obviously not like a snake.

Su Chen was surprised. "Are you hungry?"

The eggshells were gone, and it seemed that they were eaten after Xiaobai was born.

Su Chen scratched his head. He really didn't know what the little snake ate.

He shook his head, got up and dressed, and walked out of the room. The little snake was wrapped around Su Chen's arm, poking its head out of his sleeve, and curiously looked at everything outside the room as Su Chen walked.

After washing up, Su Chen walked into the kitchen, took out a beast corpse from his backpack, cut off a piece of meat and handed it to Xiaobai's mouth.

Xiaobai's eyes lit up, swallowed it in one gulp, and then opened his mouth, indicating that he wanted more.

The cute look made Su Chen smile, and he continued to feed it.

After a while, the little snake was full and wrapped around Su Chen's wrist, tucked into his sleeve, and fell into a deep sleep.

Su Chen didn't care and started to prepare his breakfast.

He picked up his phone and checked the news on the Internet.

"Huh?"

As soon as he turned on his phone, some pushed news made Su Chen frown.

"Another world passage?"

A solemn light appeared on Su Chen's face. He clicked on a news and started to watch. The content was a video. The video was obviously a city abroad. A crack appeared on the street, attracting many people's attention and curiosity.

The next moment, a ferocious beast suddenly came out from inside, swallowed a human into its stomach and chewed it.

Blood splattered, causing passers-by around to flee in panic.

Afterwards, more beasts came out of the crack, as if

Treating humans as food, they hunted them crazily. The streets were full of blood and debris, like a doomsday scene.

The progress was accelerated, and officials arrived and used firepower to target these beasts, but the bullets hit the beasts, but it was difficult to penetrate the skin.

Many official members died in the mouths of these beasts.

It was not until some players came later that some beasts were solved.

The video ended here.

There are many shocking comments from netizens below.

And Su Chen was also shocked.

"Those beasts..."

It's impossible to see wrong!

He recognized them!

He even killed some beasts!

They are definitely beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas!

But these beasts actually appeared directly in reality!

It made Su Chen feel like he hadn't woken up yet.

They were not ordinary beasts that evolved from mutations, but they really appeared in reality through a crack!

Such news is too unbelievable!

"So... is this the change brought about by the game's public beta?"

Su Chen murmured.

Staring at the screen of his mobile phone, a bold guess emerged in his mind.

The other side of the crack can't be the Classic of Mountains and Seas, right?

Su Chen took a deep breath, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and continued to read other news.

Similar cracks have appeared in many places around the world, and more than thirteen have been discovered so far.

According to official speculation, it is estimated that there are at least more than twenty cracks that have not been discovered.

This is a terrifying number. If the world on the other side of those cracks is really the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, it is definitely not good news!

Fortunately, Su Chen's identity is different from that of ordinary players. He directly contacted Tang Wei and asked.

It is obvious that Tang Wei has just woken up. After receiving Su Chen's news, she gave an answer not long after.

"Three cracks appeared in the country, one in the city, and two in the wilderness."

"As for your guess, although we thought so before, the higher-ups have already detected that the other side of the crack is not the world of Shanhaijing."

"Isn't it?"

"Yes."

Tang Wei sent a message. "As soon as the crack appeared, the higher-ups had already controlled it, and sent people in to investigate. The news they got... how to say it, it seems to be a place different from Shanhaijing, but somewhat similar, and it's hard to describe."

Hearing this, Su Chen's eyes flickered. "Secret Realm? Lingxu?"

"Neither, to be more precise... like a battlefield!"

"Battlefield?"

Su Chen's eyes widened, flashing with brilliance, touching his chin, and fell into deep thought.

"Different from Shanhaijing, somewhat similar, but not like the secret realm and Lingxu..."

"Could it be... the rift that the True King mentioned?"

Thinking of this, Su Chen checked the locations of the three cracks found in the country and shook his head.

"What a pity, it's too far from me."

The three cracks are all far away from Jiangcheng, otherwise he would like to go in and see if it is a rift.

After all, if it is, he can complete the task of the True King, and he can get rewards from the True King based on this.

Shaking his head, Su Chen typed and sent a message again. "I am very interested in that crack. If you have any news, you can notify me."

Tang Wei: "Okay, and someone will go to explore Lingxu at noon. You can go there then."

Su Chen: "Okay."

Su Chen nodded, then put away his phone, and quickly finished his breakfast.

Then he returned to the room.

It was still early before noon, so he had to log in to the game first to see if there were any changes in the game.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, his eyes went dark, and he chose the place to revive. When he opened his eyes again, he had already appeared in the thunderstorm land in the Beetle Kingdom.

After opening the backpack and drinking a mouthful of the Poison Water, Su Chen looked up and looked around.

It was exactly the same as yesterday, no difference.

"So, there is no obvious change in the game?"

Su Chen murmured.

Taking a deep breath, Su Chen looked back behind him. The charred ancient tree was still standing there, and the blue fruit was in the process of ripening.

The only difference from yesterday was that the thunder above his head was even more violent.

The thunder in the sky kept falling, hitting the ancient tree and being absorbed by the Thunder Tribulation Fruit.

At the same time, there was a faint breath emanating from the Thunder Tribulation Fruit, which made Su Chen smell it and a feeling of excitement rose in his body.

Wiping away the desire, the eyes even more emerged with an undisguised fiery heat.

Activating the magic eye, the information of the thunder tribulation fruit once again emerged in his mind.

[The thunder tribulation fruit that is about to mature, it is said that it can only be born on the thunder-struck tree that is completely dead after being struck by thunder but still stubbornly retains a trace of life. Wherever there is thunder tribulation fruit, a large amount of thunder will be bred, forming a thunderstorm land, and it will only dissipate after the thunder tribulation fruit is ripe and picked! ]

"Sure enough, it is about to mature."

Seeing this information, Su Chen looked surprised and immediately walked towards the direction of the thunder tribulation fruit.

But at this moment, the exuding breath became more and more tempting.

Then, a buzzing sound came from behind.

Faintly, there were also some roars of wild beasts from different directions.

Su Chen suddenly looked up, his expression cold.

In the field of vision, many creatures covered with thunder were running wildly from a distance in all directions, including the thunderstorm ladybug.

There were some creatures that could make Su Chen feel a little threatened.

Their eyes were fiery and irrational, staring at the Thunder Tribulation Fruit with greed.

There was no doubt that these creatures were also rushing for the Thunder Tribulation Fruit.

"Are you attracted by that breath?"

Su Chen murmured, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"It seems that if you want to get the Thunder Tribulation Fruit... you have to kill first!"

The flames on the two swords rose and swayed continuously, and a terrifying breath emanated from them.

"Get out!"

Su Chen's pupils flashed with light, staring at the creatures that were gradually approaching, and uttered a cold word:

The moment the voice fell, the momentum instantly turned into a storm, sweeping directly forward.

All the beasts stopped and stared at Su Chen solemnly.

Instinct made them aware of the danger!
