Chapter 197: Chapter 197

Du You had a great plan, expecting to collect the white crystal coins he needed in just one day. However, by the end of the day, Du You discovered that he didn’t have nearly enough white crystal coins. Surprisingly, he’d only gathered fewer than five hundred.

The earnings were far too meager. The reason wasn’t anything else but the fact that he found too few Giant Beasts.

"What’s the matter? Did killing too many chased the rest of the Giant Beasts away?"

Du You recalled the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs. Every time these creatures appeared, they would cause a large number of Giant Beasts to scurry away in panic. If it wasn’t for them, his earnings would not have been so pitiful.

"It’s all your fault," Du You said grumpily, tapping the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog. But the Undead Dried Corpse didn’t show any reaction. After all, you couldn’t expect an undead creature to express emotions, could you?

"In that case, I’ll venture deeper into the forest tomorrow."

Du You decided to take the risk. These few relaxing days had somewhat inflated his confidence.

Du You believed that as long as he didn’t encounter advanced Giant Beasts, he would be safe. Even if he encountered second-tier beasts, he could still escape if he couldn’t defeat them. With that in mind, he decided to go further. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽

A bit of overconfidence shouldn’t matter, or so Du You thought.

The next day, Du You mounted the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog and advanced further into the forest, just like a man taking his eagle for a walk and his dog for a ride.

"Haha, as long as I conquer this forest, I can enter the big city."

The big city Du You referred to was the big city in the Heavenly Disaster Beasts world. The Shaking Stone City he had previously visited was just a peripheral city, otherwise, the atmosphere there wouldn’t be so desperate.

In a real big city, there were many powerful beings. Although they were stronger than him, there were so many of them that there would be more treasures. It would at least be a good learning experience for him.

But the deeper Du You ventured, the fewer his earnings became. There was no improvement as he had imagined.

Du You felt a sense of unease, even as he continued to command the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog to venture deeper.

But when it was close to noon, a roar suddenly sounded from afar. The breath contained in that roar made Du You shudder all over. It reminded him of the feeling he had when he first encountered the huge black dog.

If he hadn’t been at such a distance, he feared he would have been paralyzed again.

"Not good, run! It’s definitely a creature above level 20. It might even be close to level 30." Du You quickly commanded the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog to flee. But the roars continued from behind, edging ever closer to him.

"Damn it, I need to speed up, otherwise it’ll catch up. I didn’t flirt with your wife, why do you keep coming after me? Can’t delay, even if it’s a risk, need to get faster."

Du You called back the Cursed Crow King and the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog, mounted Xiaozi, and asked her to fly as low as possible over the top of the forest towards the distance. Flying too high after they had ventured deep into the forest would easily draw the attention of high-level Giant Beasts.

Xiaozi might not have as strong combat power as the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog, but her speed definitely surpasses it.

They were flying, after all, so the speed instantly shot up. Du You finally noticed that the roar was getting further and further away from him. "Why am I having such bad luck today? Did I use up all my good luck?"

Duo You stopped and took a deep breath. He wasn’t tired, but the fear itself was suffocating.

This wasn’t about courage, but an instinctive fear when a person encountered a higher-level creature. The kind of fear that can’t be controlled, similar to when an ordinary person seeing a tiger.

After finally calming down, Du You just let Xiaozi wander in the forest. Until they came across a defensive-oriented level 9 Black Bear, then he finally summoned the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog and the Cursed Crow King.

With their assistance, Du You managed to hunt down the Giant Beast in less than a minute.

But just after the kill, before Du You had time to check the loot, another roar erupted from a distance. The same sensation, the same fear, but the sound was different from the previous one. This wasn’t the same beast.

Du You rode away on the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog, but strangely, the Beast also relentlessly chased from behind.

Not until Du You mounted Xiaozi and riskily flew away did they manage to shake off the creature.

"What is happening? Why are they all going after me? Could it be that the Giant Beasts of this world and humans have reached a boiling point? Are humans hunting too many Giant Beasts, causing them to harbor more hatred for humans?"

Du You found it very strange because the Giant Beasts were not a system and lacked organization. Most importantly, the most powerful beings in this world were Giant Beasts. Humans were just species struggling to survive under the oppression of Giant Beasts.

Even in the big cities, only a portion of humans have managed to survive by joining forces. It’s said that when truly superior Giant Beasts appear, even the humans from large cities absolutely can’t resist and must migrate.

In the following time, Du You kept wandering the forest, continually being targeted by powerful Giant Beasts, and constantly being pursued. Du You had no other option but to continue escaping, not daring to stop at all. As a result, his earnings were even less.

"I can’t keep going . I must leave this place first. Wait, it seems like something is not right."

After an unclear amount of time, Du You finally saw the light. "I got it! These Giant Beasts are not targeting me. Every time I summon the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog, they rush over, even from a distance, they relentlessly chase us. Every time I recall it, they lose their target. When the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog first appeared, didn’t it also attract the attention of a Giant Beast? Could it be that consuming an immature Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog is beneficial to the Giant Beasts? And this benefit only Giant Beasts that are close to level 30 can get?"

Du You didn’t know if his guess was correct, but that was the only explanation he could think of.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the appearance of the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog every time would cause a chase.

Well, how about not summoning the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog and changing the location? Du You was preparing to ride Xiaozi and leave, but suddenly a massive shadow appeared in the sky. The terrifying aura was enough to explain the power of the Giant Beast.

This was definitely not something he could handle. Thinking about how he was about to fly not long ago, Du You felt a bit scared. It didn’t care about him on the ground, but once he took to the sky, it would be a provocation.

Many Giant Beasts were naturally aggressive toward other beings flying in the sky, regardless of whether they were hunting or not. It was just an instinct.
