chapter 995: king of the jungle (part 2)
the other monkeys they had come across had thrown black coconuts before; they were fast and hard when thrown, but never to this degree. lince was quite shocked by the destruction it caused as he looked at the trees that were now falling due to the middle section being
completely missing.
the four-tailed white-furred monkey then roared out loud, causing the birds in the trees to scatter into the distance.
"the fact that we are seeing stronger beasts might be a sign that we're heading in the right direction," lince said.
he saw that the monkey had a pile of black coconuts next to it. most of them had been broken into and the insides eaten. instead of coming towards them and fighting, the monkey picked up the half-eaten coconuts and started to hurl them towards both lince and zon with its four
arms.
lince, thanks to his great footwork, was able to avoid them all, and each time they missed, he could hear the devastating destruction they caused behind him. zon was fast as well, and thanks to his system, he could predict the path of where they would be thrown even before they were launched.
both of them were avoiding them non-stop, but the coconuts seemed endless, and not just that, lince wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but the speed of the coconuts appeared to be getting faster.
it looked like one pile of the eaten coconuts would soon run out, and then the monkey would switch to the whole, bigger coconuts next to it.
"i have a suggestion: let's fall back for now and pick another route. there should be different ways to get to where we want to be," zon suggested. "fighting this creature, even with the two of us, might take too much effort."
"you really do think little of me. you seem to base things just on plain statistics. even if its raw strength is greater than mine, what about my battle iq? what about my techniques and skills that enhance my qi? i can even sharpen my qi or place it into a weapon, making it more deadly."
"even if that monkey threw a coconut directly at me, i could use my skills and qi to break it. i'm starting to think your evaluation of me is quite poor."
zon didn't say anything. instead, he was already trying to figure out different paths to head to the same area. eventually, after going around quite a bit, they came across another set of ruins.
the ruins scattered in the jungle were placed in different locations, so both lince and zon were sure they were in a different area, but it was almost the same layout. when they moved ahead, they could see the same wooden bridge and a pile of coconuts by the side.
the thing was, there was also the same creature, the four-tailed monkey, only this one was on the ground.
"it's dead," lince said as he moved closer. approaching it, they could see several large marks on its body. blood had poured from its mouth onto its belly, and there were even broken bones.
what was quite surprising was that the area looked as if there were no signs of a battle at all. "do you think this was your friend?" lince asked.
"not my friend," zon replied. "and no, it doesn't look like his work. maybe another beast, another type of monkey?"
it was scary for lince to think there might be a beast even stronger than the monkey they came across, but they both knew this wouldn't deter them. so they both decided to cross the bridge, and when they did, they could see a man up ahead, sitting by the bridge, looking their way.
"oh, you're the first visitors i've seen today... well, apart from that monkey," the man said as he stood up and brushed off his strange blazer.
both lince and zon had no clue who this man was, but they knew one thing: every cell in their bodies, and their instincts, were telling them to run away from this man.
