Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Endless Death Desperate Trial
"The host has connected to the Thunder Cloud Sea Realm."
"The connection time is three days..."
"During the novice mission, the host will receive novice protection: the number of exploration deaths is unlimited!"
"The host has temporarily established a contract with the pet..."
"Please explore on your own..."
Andre was still immersed in the mysterious world in front of him that seemed to come from ancient times. While his thoughts were drifting, a series of prompt sounds suddenly sounded in his mind, pulling him back to reality like a huge bell.
He was slightly startled, and then, his sharp eyes like a hawk instantly caught one of the dangerous words - the number of deaths. In an instant, an ominous premonition surged into his heart like a haze, causing his heartbeat to accelerate suddenly.
Suddenly, the sky above his head seemed to be quickly covered by a huge black curtain, and a shadow covering the sky and the sun passed by like a ghost. The whole world seemed to be swallowed by darkness in an instant, and the day seemed to be instantly reduced to night. Andre looked up subconsciously, but this sight made his pupils shrink sharply and his heart almost jumped out of his throat. He saw a pair of huge wings that seemed to be able to support the entire sky, powerfully stirring the vast sea of clouds that looked like a white ocean. The huge wings seemed to be boundless, and there were lightning and thunder between the dark purple wing feathers, as if the gods were angry. With just a slight flap, the countless clouds on the edge of the wings rolled endlessly like surging waves, never stopping.
"This... What kind of demonic existence is this?!!" Andre's mind went blank in an instant, and he was completely stunned. He knew very well that even the largest blue whale in the ocean would be as small as an ant in front of this giant beast, not even as big as one of its feathers.
Just as Andre was deeply trapped in the vortex of shock and had not yet recovered, in just a few seconds, a strong and violent wind pressure suddenly swept over like a raging tsunami, rolling down from the sky like a mountain pressing down on the top of the head. In the wind pressure, it seemed that countless sharp wind blades were hidden, wantonly cutting the space and making a creepy whistling sound.
"Run..." As soon as this thought came to Andre's mind, he felt a sharp pain as if he was burned by a raging fire and pierced by thousands of arrows, which instantly spread all over his body like a surging tide. Then, his vision suddenly darkened, and endless darkness suddenly attacked like a surging tide, completely submerging him.
"Am I going to die like this?" Andre's heart was stagnant, as if he had lost the ability to think. But soon, the bright light came again like a miracle. He slowly opened his eyes and found that the ancient and vast ancient scene was still in front of him. However, the surrounding environment had changed drastically. It was no longer the mysterious forest surrounded by giant trees. Instead, it was a lush and huge grass. Every blade of grass in the grass was like a sharp sword, swaying gently in the breeze, exuding a murderous aura.
Thinking of the previous prompt of the system, Andre gradually came to his senses. Could this be the so-called unlimited number of deaths? Here, no matter how many times you die, it doesn't matter?
Thinking of this, Andre breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but then, a rage ignited in his heart, and he wanted to curse immediately. Although he couldn't die, he really didn't want to endure the previous severe pain that seemed to be dismembered again. That kind of pain was simply unforgettable, making his soul tremble!
"System, I beg you to let me return home." Andre changed to a humble and pleading tone, trying to move this cold and ruthless system with tenderness.
"The mission has not been completed yet, and I can't return early." The cold voice of the system was like a sharp blade, ruthlessly cutting off Andre's hope.
"..." Andre's face turned pale as death in an instant, and he secretly complained in his heart. Is he really going to suffer for three days in this wild world full of death and beasts? How many times will he have to experience the torture of death during this period! He just felt a little collapsed in his heart. What kind of pitfall system is this!
"Swish~!" Suddenly, a slight movement sounded slowly, like the footsteps of the god of death, quietly approaching.
Andre's hair stood up immediately, and he looked in horror in the direction of the sound, but found that it was the lightning rat at his feet that caused the movement. This little guy was also brought here, and he was shivering at the moment, like a fallen leaf swaying in the cold wind. Obviously, he was frightened by the giant beast that covered the sky and the sun before, and he was probably scared out of his wits.
"Poor little guy, it seems that you will also have to accompany me here to experience these three days of life and death trials..." Andre sighed helplessly, and a feeling of sympathy surged in his heart.
Perhaps due to the wonderful effect of the temporary contract, Andre felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy with this lightning mouse. Seeing its shivering body, he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart. He slowly squatted down and gently stroked it, trying to calm its frightened emotions.
Just as Andre gently stroked the lightning mouse, he suddenly had an idea in his heart, and remembered that the purpose of being sent here was to train this little guy? To increase its strength by three times within a week, although it was difficult, but the protagonist of this task was it after all! And this extremely terrifying training ground is also tailor-made for it!
"As long as it can get enough exercise, maybe it can finish this tormenting task ahead of time. Although the hope is slim, how can we know the result if we don't try hard?" Thinking of this, Andre's eyes gradually became firm, and slowly turned to the Lei Guangshu in his hand that was slowly being calmed down.
At this moment, the shivering Lei Guangshu gradually calmed down a little under the touch of Andre's warm palm, as if it had found a warm haven. However, at this moment, a strong sense of uneasiness suddenly surged in its heart. It looked carefully along this feeling, and saw that its temporary master was staring at it with a pair of eyes emitting strange light!
Lei Guangshu: "?!"
"Come on, little guy, I firmly believe that you can do it." Andre grinned, trying to encourage Lei Guangshu, but that smile in Lei Guangshu's eyes, but it looked like a devil's smile.
The Lightning Rat's hair stood up instantly. It seemed to be acutely aware of something. It struggled violently in Andre's hands, and its strength was far beyond Andre's imagination. Although it was just a sensitive star pet, its strength was much stronger than Andre, an ordinary human, and it broke free in the blink of an eye.
"Come back!" Andre saw this and shouted loudly. But as soon as he said it, he was frightened and his neck shrank. He secretly said in his heart, this is the Thunder Cloud Sea Realm full of dangers, and there are ferocious beasts everywhere. Isn't it actively inviting death to shout like this?
At this moment, Andre suddenly remembered that he had established a temporary contract with this Lightning Rat. His mind moved, and he immediately sensed that outside of his consciousness, there was a vague consciousness running in panic. This consciousness can transmit extremely weak emotions and thoughts, and at this moment, what came from that consciousness was fear, anxiety, fear, and the idea of escaping! Andre knew that this was the true feeling of the Lightning Mouse at the moment.
"Is this the magical power of the Star Pet Contract? No wonder people often say that the Star Pet and its owner are connected in mind. This wonderful feeling is really hard to describe in words if you don't experience it yourself..." Andre's eyes flickered, and his mind was full of thoughts. The power of this contract was once something his predecessor had dreamed of but could never reach. Now he was lucky enough to have it, so he must cherish it.
"Squeak -" Suddenly, the scream of the Lightning Mouse came from the jungle in the distance, and the sound was full of fear and despair.
Andre was startled and rushed towards the direction of the sound without hesitation. He saw a huge grass root seven or eight meters high, and the Lightning Mouse was standing on end, baring its teeth and confronting a giant insect. This giant insect is more than two meters long, and its body is emerald green, like a piece of jade carved out, covered with purple patterns, and lightning flashes from the patterns from time to time, like a group of smart purple snakes, winding and swimming on its body. Obviously, this is also a thunder star pet!
"Why does it look like a caterpillar?" When Andre saw the appearance of this giant insect, the image of a caterpillar immediately emerged in his mind. However, this giant insect is a hundred times more ferocious than a caterpillar, and the terrifying aura emanating from it makes Andre's scalp numb.
"Damn, I won't be swallowed by this insect this time?" Seeing the giant insect's mouth full of sharp teeth, like a handful of sharp saw teeth, Andre felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. Previously, he was torn to pieces by the wind pressure of the giant beast that covered the sky, but he was killed in an instant, like a nightmare that passed in a flash. But if he was entangled by this giant insect, it would be a torture worse than death!
He even wanted to end his life immediately to escape this terrible fate. He knew that if he committed suicide, he would be reborn in another random place in this mysterious world, and perhaps he could get rid of this terrifying giant insect temporarily.
However, he had no sharp weapons around him, which put him in a dilemma. Andre looked around anxiously, and finally found a stone on the ground. He slowly picked up the stone, looked at it with complicated eyes, and thought to himself: How hard should I hit myself to kill with one blow? What if I didn't kill myself, but was half dead? This question, like a profound and difficult philosophical puzzle, deeply surrounded Andre's mind, giving him a splitting headache.
"Squeak!" While Andre was still thinking hard about what angle to use to hit himself to death more fatally, he suddenly heard a shrill scream. He looked up suddenly and saw that the Thunder Rat was indeed no match for the giant insect, and had been tightly wrapped by the giant insect's sharp blade with many legs like a centipede. The sharp blade mercilessly pierced the soft belly of the Thunder Rat, and blood flowed like a fountain. The Thunder Rat struggled twice before dying powerlessly, with its eyes full of unwillingness and despair.
Andre's face was extremely ugly, and he felt a little reluctant and inexplicably angry. Although he had not been with the Thunder Rat for a long time, he had established a contract and had a special emotional connection.
"Do you want to revive the pet immediately?" The cold prompt of the system suddenly sounded, breaking the silence of death.
Andre was startled, looking at the corpse of the Thunder Rat that was about to be stuffed into the mouth of the giant insect, and a strong unwillingness surged in his heart. Almost without hesitation, he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Resurrection!"
As soon as the voice fell, the Thunder Rat that was about to enter the giant insect's mouth suddenly turned into a little starlight, floating down to the ground in front of the giant insect like a dream, and slowly gathered into the shape of the Thunder Rat again.
Crack! The giant insect bit into nothing, and its sharp teeth collided with each other, making a crisp sound. It looked at the prey that suddenly disappeared and came back to life, and was obviously stunned for a moment, with confusion and surprise in its eyes.
Giant insect: "???"
Andre did not give it any time to think. Seeing the resurrected Lightning Rat, he immediately shouted: "Attack it!" He knew that only by taking the initiative at this moment could he defeat this powerful enemy.
Through the power of conveying emotions through the contract, the meaning of Andre's words was immediately conveyed to the Lightning Rat like lightning. The Lightning Rat was stunned in place, and its memory was still in the fear of death before. The feeling of pain and despair grasped its soul like the claws of a demon. Andre's shouting was like a heavy hammer, awakening it from the abyss of fear. The obedient instinct when it was tamed instantly took over, and it almost subconsciously rushed forward.
Lightning speed! Whoosh! The Lightning Rat was like a silver lightning, suddenly speeding up, with an indomitable momentum, and suddenly hit the giant insect hard.
Bang! The giant insect was knocked back, but its reaction was extremely fast. Halfway through its back, it stopped with its powerful strength and agility. Its multi-legged claws were like sharp sickles, quickly grabbing the Lightning Rat in its arms and tearing it apart brutally.
The Lightning Rat was killed again!
"Do you want to revive the pet immediately?" The system prompt sounded again.
"Immediately!" Andre shouted without thinking. When the Lightning Rat was resurrected again, he ordered an attack without hesitation. He firmly believed that since he had the ability to revive infinitely, he would definitely find a way to defeat the giant insect. Even if the gap between the two sides was as huge as a natural moat, he would never give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope!
