YM778.TV Chapter 94: Supernatural World
A fist the size of an adult\'s head came crashing down, despite the protection of his vine armor. Enzo felt his life force surge, leaving him powerless as he was sent flying.
Coincidentally, he was propelled towards Freya\'s direction.
The two collided intimately, both falling to the ground.
With Enzo on top of her, Freya gritted her teeth and shouted, "Enzo, get off me!"
Enzo weakly replied, "I can\'t move right now."
His head rested against Freya\'s soft chest as he teasingly added, "You know, lying here isn\'t so bad. I\'ll rest for a bit."
Before he could finish speaking, Enzo\'s eyes closed shut.
Freya was furious beyond measure, yet helpless, as she could only allow Enzo to lie on top of her.
After all, she was now bound and unable to move herself.
...
Time passed slowly, in High Tower Space, where it seemed only the eternal moon shone its light, illuminating everything beneath it.
Meanwhile, news of High Tower Space\'s appearance spread to more places outside.
From the barren mountain regions to the Blue Sea, archipelagos, deserts, and plateaus, the word of High Tower Space\'s emergence reached many corners.
Numerous tribes with long histories opened pathways to High Tower Space, sending their finest members to undertake trials and reap rich rewards.
However, Enzo remained unaware of these events.
Meanwhile.
On Plata Plain, Gene and his team, tasked with exploring the plains, rode swiftly on untamed prairie wolves, their expressions grave.
Gene shouted, "Lester, where did those terrifying creatures go?"
Lester\'s eyes gleamed with a golden hue as he quickly glanced behind and replied, "Gene, we can stop now. It seems those creatures have given up."
Relieved, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Under Gene\'s leadership, the Adventurer squad had ventured into Plata Plain.
With Lester\'s abilities assisting them, the Adventurer squad couldn\'t miss a single movement or detail around them. Thanks to this, the squad smoothly gathered a lot of information, including the locations of many tribes on the outskirts of Plata Plain and the number of people in each tribe.
The mission, by all accounts, was successfully completed.
That was without encountering any major setbacks.
However, Gene was not one to settle easily, especially with Lester\'s farsight abilities combined with his own formidable strength. He became ambitious and set his sights on some supernatural creatures in Plata Plain.
Initially hesitant, Lester disagreed.
Yet, persuaded and tempted by Gene\'s insistence, Lester eventually agreed to give it a try.
With Lester\'s abilities, the Adventurer squad discovered a solitary supernatural creature in the buffer zone of Plata Plain. It was a giant hedgehog covered with spikes, a species typically found in mountain forests. It was unclear why such a creature would be in Plata Plain, but this particular giant hedgehog was alone.
Nevertheless, the squad proceeded to engage.
The giant hedgehog had a tough shell on its back, but its frontal defense was extremely weak. Especially with Gene and the others equipped with iron-tipped arrows, which were razor-sharp and easily pierced through the creature\'s body. This prevented the giant hedgehog from curling up and protecting its vulnerable front side effectively.
As a result, the hunt for the supernatural creature was a great success this time.
However, as Gene and his team moved to collect their spoils, they were unexpectedly ambushed by other supernatural creatures: wild boars, giant wolves, and yaks—belonging to different tribes, yet united in attacking them.
This unforeseen assault left Gene and his companions pale-faced with fear.
Despite evading the pursuing creatures, they were shaken by the encounter.
Gene couldn\'t help but mutter, "This is outrageous! Herbivores and carnivores mixed together, some even natural enemies. It\'s bizarre and defies logic!"
His sentiments were echoed by the others.
Lester expressed concern and said, "Let\'s return to the tribe, submit our report about this abnormal situation. I have a bad feeling about this."
Agreeing unanimously, they headed back to the tribe.
However, upon their return, they discovered that Enzo was nowhere to be found.
Concerned about any potential issues within the tribe, Enzo had only informed close confidants like Amy, Tia, Ward, and Priest Lucy about the journey to High Tower Space.
Amy, now worried, couldn\'t help but feel apprehensive about the situation.
Enzo had been in High Tower Space for three or four days already, but there had been no news from him. The reports from Gene and the others were so strange that she couldn\'t help but speculate.
Could it be that the appearance of High Tower Space had caused supernatural beings to behave abnormally?
But this was just speculation.
Even the knowledgeable Priest Lucy furrowed her brow, unable to understand why the supernatural beings were acting so strangely.
However, what reassured everyone was that during this time, the walls around the tribal camp had been built. They were over three meters high and connected to the bamboo walls at the southern lake, providing solid protection for the entire tribe.
In addition, there were dozens of pregnant tribespeople in the tribe.
This was a symbol of the tribe\'s prosperity.
So, Amy ordered a bonfire party.
As for the food consumed, the tribe took care of it all.
Meanwhile, in the wilderness of High Tower Space, Enzo also started a fire. He roasted a freshly hunted wild rabbit over the flames, causing golden fat to sizzle and emit a fragrant aroma, especially after he sprinkled it with chili powder, making the flavor even more enticing.
Of course, Freya could only watch.
After the battle with the Rampage Ape had left it unconscious, despite noticing that Freya showed no signs of attempting to escape, Enzo still didn\'t trust her much. He continued to bind her with vines and infused strength into her injured areas to prevent them from healing, a new technique he had discovered in recent days.
He had learned about this from Freya herself.
Enzo suspected that Freya had deliberately told him that information to gain his trust.
This idea was dismissed by Freya, who now watched Enzo selfishly eating without any intention of preparing food for her. She deliberately remarked, "How weak. Facing a Rampage Ape that I could kill with just a flick of my finger, you exert so much effort to deal with it. If this is all the strength you have, I suggest you leave High Tower Space early. Those trials aren\'t as easy as you think."
Enzo had heard many such words before.
He walked over to Freya, tore off a rabbit leg, and shoved it into her mouth, coldly saying, "Just say if you want to eat."
Freya took a bite, her eyes lighting up.
It was delicious!
Despite the tangled grievances between them, at this moment, Freya sincerely praised, "Compared to your strength, your cooking skills are much stronger."
Freya mumbled with the rabbit leg in her mouth.
Enzo heard her clearly, though.
He pulled the rabbit leg out of Freya\'s mouth, seeing her angry expression, and calmly said, "Freya, how about we make a deal?"
Expressionless, Freya asked, "What deal?"
Enzo smiled, "In the days to come, I can provide you with food. But in return, I want you to teach me some supernatural knowledge."
Upon hearing this, Freya suddenly laughed. She mocked, "Enzo, do you think I\'m someone easily deceived? Supernatural knowledge is incredibly valuable. You actually want to trade it for food. Are you too greedy, or do you think I\'m too foolish?"
"Absolutely not!"
Freya ruthlessly rejected Enzo\'s proposal.
However, the taste of that food was undeniably good. At least in the past years, she had never eaten such delicious food.
What was more critical was that Enzo deliberately sat in front of her eating.
In the end, Freya still didn\'t speak. Her inherent pride wouldn\'t allow it.
Of course, her resentment towards Enzo grew stronger.
This devil who played with people\'s hearts!
Freya cursed angrily in her mind, but then heard Enzo speak up, "Open your mouth?"
"Ah?"
Freya was puzzled, her mouth slightly open. Before she could react, a piece of boneless rabbit meat was stuffed into her mouth, and it tasted just right.
After finishing one piece, Enzo stuffed in another.
Being fed like this was a feeling Freya had never experienced before.
It carried both a sense of humiliation, being treated like a pet, and a warmth she had never felt even when she became a candidate priest of the Golden Lion Tribe. There, she faced various conspiracies and schemes.
After finishing the food, Freya fell into a long silence.
She looked up at the moon of High Tower Space, knowing it wasn\'t the real moon but still appreciating its beauty.
Suddenly, Freya asked, "Enzo, what was your past like?"
Enzo was surprised by Freya\'s sudden question, but it wasn\'t something worth hiding.
Of course, he spoke about his life in another world.
Under the moonlight, Enzo began, "I come from a very distant place..."
