Survival Arena-Chapter 446 - Mysterious Monster
Chapter 446: Chapter 446 Mysterious Monster
“Did you hear that? Work hard and don’t think that after being known for embracing death fearlessly, when someone mentions embracing death, they’ll only think of me; you all are just transparent,”
Chu Ge teased with a chuckle, causing his teammates to jeer and hoot.
None of them wanted to admit defeat; each harbored a heart longing to become a legend in the Survival Arena.
The atmosphere was exceedingly harmonious.
Looking at his teammates, Chu Ge suddenly felt that the Survival Competition was no longer cruel.
How rare it is to have friends who will stand by you through thick and thin in life.
...
Especially in a materialistic society.
It was now the afternoon, with plenty of time before nightfall.
Chu Ge contemplated, “Why don’t we rest today? We can explore the entire Mysterious Islands to have a look at the geographical environment.”
Understanding the environment could affect their combat strategies.
This time, the Survival Competition wouldn’t be over in just a day or two.
The rest had no objections. After successfully securing a base, everyone’s stress levels had significantly decreased.
Gu Tianjiao reminded them again, “We can’t get separated while chasing enemies anymore. There are too many teams here.”
Great General Lie Hao felt embarrassed; he was the one who had run off just before.
Xiao Hero then said, “The great sea, land, and air battle is almost upon us. We have to seize every opportunity to grow stronger.”
The annual Ocean Arena competition changed the fate of many teams and Survivors.
During last year’s great battle, Xiao Hero and Chu Ge obtained unconventional survival materials.
And those were akin to having superpowers—chances practically unheard of in ordinary Survival Competitions.
“I still hope we end up in the Ocean Arena. It seems like there are more opportunities in the sea,” Arno piped up.
Others also joined in, chatting noisily.

After about an hour and a half of rest, they set off again.
As for Xiao Ming, he had yet to appear, and they couldn’t justify waiting in the same place indefinitely.
News about Survival Teams being wiped out wasn’t too frequent; compared to previous experiences in Survival Competitions, encounters were less common, indicating that everyone was being cautious.
Along the way, they encountered many Survivors, but it seemed like they were adopting the same strategy as Chu Ge and his team: not engaging in combat for the time being.
At most, there was an exchange of glances before each party went their separate ways.
Of course, if the enemy was all alone, they’d probably be surrounded and attacked.
“That kid just now dared to glare at me. If it weren’t for the boss’s orders, I would have torn him apart!” huffed Great General Lie Hao.
Daddy’s Silhouette snorted.
The others found it amusing and understood that Great General Lie Hao was indeed trying to lighten the mood.
As they passed one island after another, they realized that the Mysterious Islands were bigger than they had imagined.
When the third stronghold appeared, they did not participate.
In the blink of an eye,
night had fallen.
They stopped on a sandbar, an area with rocky reefs convenient for hiding and also in hopes of meeting Xiao Ming.
An Xiuluo and Xiao Hero took positions on two of the largest rocks, scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
Daddy’s Silhouette and Arno kept watch in two other directions.
Chu Ge leaned against Big Hair, gazing up at the night sky.
They needed to sleep on this first night to maintain sufficient physical strength, so they would take turns standing guard.
Chu Ge was in the first group to sleep. The later parts of the night were more dangerous, and therefore he had to take the later watch.
Soon, Chu Ge fell asleep.
He had a rare dream.
He dreamed that the Mysterious Islands were actually volcanoes about to erupt!
On the last day of the Survival Competition, the volcano erupted, spreading lava across the islands. All the Survivors screamed in panic, while Chu Ge, enshrouded in Raging Flame Separation, swam through the magma.
When he saw Emperor Luosheng howling in his eyes, he couldn’t help but laugh.
Just as he was laughing heartily, he was shaken awake.
Chu Ge’s eyes fluttered open to find it still deep in the night.
The one shaking him was Gu Tianjiao.
“Shh, something’s approaching,” Gu Tianjiao whispered quietly.
Chu Ge immediately sat up, noticing that the rest were crouched behind the rocks, warily eyeing the surroundings.
Daddy’s Silhouette, Chi Lian, and Xiao Poor Thing were still in deep sleep.
Chu Ge followed Gu Tianjiao and climbed behind a large rock, peeking out from it.
They saw a figure staggering forward on the nearby beach. Under the cover of darkness, it appeared to be as big as a mature lioness, covered in dark fur—not black hair, but more like brown.
Chu Ge frowned.
What had he seen?
Did that thing have two heads?
In a low voice, Gu Tianjiao said, “See that? It shouldn’t be a Survivor.”
Chu Ge nodded.
Great General Lie Hao, Arno, Xiao Hero, and An Xiuluo were also attentively watching with tension.
Chu Ge wasn’t afraid, instead, he found it interesting.
He had been to the Ghost Realm and encountered the giant beasts of Amazon Rainforest 01. What was there to fear?
Just then,
The two-headed monster suddenly charged into the sea, stirring up loud splashes that woke the others.
Chu Ge and the rest turned around.
“What…”
Daddy’s Silhouette had barely started speaking when Chu Ge interrupted.
“Quiet!”
His voice was low and stern, startling Daddy’s Silhouette into an abrupt silence.
The others, just awakened, all turned their gazes toward the sea where the waves had yet to fully calm.
“What is that thing, and why does it have two heads?” An Xiuluo muttered.
No one answered him as they all carefully surveyed their surroundings.
After a while, once they were sure the creature wasn’t coming back, everyone relaxed a bit.
“The Mysterious Islands are more complicated than we thought; everyone should be more vigilant during the night watch,” Chu Ge reminded.
It was now time for the first group to take over the night watch.
Xiao Poor Thing swallowed hard and said, “Could it be an amphibian?”
“Whatever it is, just be careful,” replied Gu Tianjiao with a shake of her head.
The appearance of the mysterious two-headed monster had cast a shadow over everyone’s hearts.
The rest of the night made it difficult for anyone to fall back to sleep.
In the blink of an eye,
The sun rose from the edge of the sea level.
Chu Ge decided to rest in the morning as well.
He had just made this decision when a stronghold emerged, fortunately not near them.
Time moved on to nine in the morning.
Xiao Ming finally found them.
“I was scared to death. A bloodthirsty monster showed up in the sea last night, eating any Survivor it caught. It wasn’t very big, but it was incredibly strong,” said Xiao Ming as he emerged from the sea, visibly shaken.
Arno immediately asked, “Was it the one with two heads?”
Xiao Ming answered, “Yeah, did you guys encounter it too?”
“You guys are really lucky it didn’t find you.”
The group exchanged glances.
If something could frighten Xiao Ming like this, that two-headed monster must be vicious indeed.
Chi Lian noticed a long, fresh scar on his back and couldn’t help but ask, “Are you hurt?”
“It’s nothing, that thing is dead now,” Xiao Ming grunted.
It looked like he had been through quite a battle.
“Rest for the morning, and take the chance to heal,” Chu Ge said.
Seeing Xiao Ming’s injury, he began to worry.
It seemed he really needed to arrange a partner for Xiao Ming, as it was too pitiful for him to be alone.
“Survival Team [Loved Before] has annihilated Survival Team [Dark Night Rose]!”
Once again, [Loved Before]!
Chu Ge found that in this Survival Competition, [Loved Before] was the most dominant.
