Chapter 68: Chapter 67: Another Important Location
Translator: 549690339
The Mountain Demon exhibited no human traits – its skin was covered in folds, its bodily hair sparse, with a head vaguely reminiscent of an enlarged rat head.
“What sort of realm does this demon belong to?” Su Nan wondered, his breath hitching in apprehension at the sight of the Mountain Demon.
Having noted the appearance of the Mountain Demon, Su Nan dared not linger.
Without waiting for the Mountain Demon to speak again, he used an unrestricted opportunity to immediately exit the game.
“Eh? It disappeared?”
Witnessing Su Nan’s sudden disappearance, the Mountain Demon issued a surprised sound, its eyes flashing with thought.
“1 hope I won’t be corpse-camped!”
Back in his room, Su Nan climbed out of the game warehouse.
His choice this time was somewhat risky.
With explicit instructions from the Twelve Demon Emperors, demons know now to wait where a Player used to log out of the game in order to catch them again.
If the Mountain Demon was indeed guarding his logout location, this would
spell trouble.
To be safe, Su Nan waited a full half-hour before logging back into the game.
Reappearing in the game’s mountain forest,
He was relieved to an environment free of the Mountain Demon.
Assured of his safety, he promptly transformed his appearance into that of the Mountain Demon, and then initiated his foreknowledge.
“I can only gauge if I could escape based on this foreknowledge.”
[You have taken on the appearance of a Mountain Demon, attempting to leave
the gorge.)
[You swiftly set off beyond the gorge, only to encounter another Mountain
Demon after a few breaths.]
[The sight of you left the Mountain Demon befuddled before it flew into a rage and swiped at you.)
[You are dead!)
[Before your death, you realized taking the form of a Mountain Demon was futile as their clan could tell that you don’t belong.)
From initiation to conclusion, his foreknowledge ended in death before a breath’s time.
“It didn’t work!” Su Nan was disheartened.
Without wasting any more time, he quickly transformed back into another demon and hurriedly retreated.
The retreat process went smoothly and didn’t attract the Mountain Demon. This left Su Nan perplexed as to how the Mountain Demon discerned whether he was leaving the gorge or returning.
Having reached the three-way junction outside the prison, Su Nan transformed back into the Wolf Demon Guard.
“It seems practically impossible to escape from Sky Wolf Valley under the Mountain Demons control.”
He sighed, seemingly the only way to leave the Sky Wolf Valley was the explicit exit.
Now all he could hope for was to usurp the Wolf Demon Guard’s fate after killing it tomorrow.
“I have six more opportunities left. What should I foresee this time?” He glanced at the task panel. He was now playing the game as Zhang Yang. After completing the ‘Hunt a Mortal-Level Monster’ quest, besides the ‘Hunt a Spirit-Level Monster’ task, only ‘Explore Mysterious Cave’ remained on the panel.
He could discard the idea of hunting a Spirit-Level Monster.
Even if he wasn’t drained, it would still be quite difficult to kill a Spirit-Level Monster in his prime state.
Perhaps if he managed to advance his Lightning Bug Bloodline to Great Perfection, it may be feasible.
As for the Mysterious Cave, it was the same.
Unless his strength could level up, or if he could mimic the appearance of the demons that dwelt inside the cave, entering it would almost certainly mean death.
“Yesterday, I came across a demon near the cliff; I can’t predict whether I’ll meet the same demon today.”
Looking at the road that led to the cliff, Su Nan, with a determined look on his face, decided to initiate foreknowledge.
[You are aware there is a mysterious demon near the end of the road leading to the cliff, so you’ve decided to seek it.]
[A minute later, you smoothly arrive at the end of the road, unfortunately, you don’t encounter any demons.]
[Unsatisfied, you try to look for it near the cliff, you explore the mountain forest along the left side of the cliff edge.)
[Two minutes later, you’ve gained nothing, despite not giving up and continuing to search.]
[Unknowingly, you’ve been surrounded by several demons, none of which you were looking for.]
[The demons sensed that you’ve spotted them, revealing themselves and launching a simultaneous attack on you.]
[in this crucial moment, you transformed into the appearance of a demon to narrowly escape disaster.]
[You continue to search, but alas, still found nothing.]
Same as yesterday, he couldn’t find the demon he was looking for.
“It seems like it was good luck that I ran into that demon last time.”
He regretted a bit.
If he had a glimpse of the demon before, perhaps he would have completed the task of exploring the mysterious cave by now.
“Just left exploring earlier, let’s try right this time.
Su Nan didn’t give up, and used foreknowledge again.
A few breaths later, he was disappointed.
He still got nothing this time.
“I have 4 foretelling opportunities left, but I better have other arrangements.” He was unable to find that demon twice, thus he had to give up.
However, he suddenly found that he had no other places he needed to predict. Both characters have completed all available tasks, and the remaining ones were impossible to complete.
There is a huge gap in strength, even with the prediction, he can’t get it done. Forced prediction is merely a waste of predictive chances without any effect. After contemplating, he took out the beast skin map, his focus fell on a place.
Purple Leaf Forest!
Centered around the Thousand Wolf Cave, there are four paths leading to four directions. He has already explored the other three directions, only the road to the Purple Leaf Forest was left untouched.
“What can be there?” Su Nan was curious.
The daily task of exploring Wangyue Peak, the mission of exploring the mysterious cave have been refreshed but not for exploring the Purple Leaf Forest.
Of course, the possible cause of this situation, he suspected, was probably because he didn’t complete the mission of exploring the mysterious cave. Perhaps, once he completes the mission of exploring the mysterious cave, he will be able to refresh the task of exploring the Purple Leaf Forest.
“Then it’s this one!”
Having nothing to do, Su Nan decided to go and check it out.
What if there is a way out of Sky Wolf Valley there?
Even though the likelihood is slim.
Purple Leaf Forest is just as far from Thousand Wolf Cave, and he couldn’t foretell without getting closer.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a sentry post not long after he set foot on the road leading to the Purple Leaf Forest.
Compared to the other sentry posts, this one was noticeably different. It was guarded by not two, but four demons, and each of them was fully armored and armed.
One of the four guards saw Su Nan and immediately growled: “Warning, no one of our kind may enter beyond this point without the Great Princess’s order!” The Purple Leaf Forest is a pivotal place for the Skywolf Clan?
Su Nan was instantly intrigued.
initially he thought that in this Sky Wolf Valley, only the Kun Tian Prison was a key point, but unexpectedly the Purple Leaf Forest turned out to be one as well.
Furthermore, by observing the current situation, it seems that the security guarding the Purple Leaf Forest is even stricter than the Kun Tian Prison. “Now, I want to check out what’s inside this Purple Leaf Forest.” Su Nan not only wasn’t deterred but ironically became more interested. Any other person may find this situation hopeless, but he has an alternative. He can completely transform into the appearance of a demon and approach the Purple Leaf Forest through the mountain forest.
As long as he gets near the Purple Leaf Forest, he can use foreknowledge..
