134: Chapter 9 A Big Business Deal {VIP Chapter 7}_1 134: Chapter 9 A Big Business Deal {VIP Chapter 7}_1 Liu Zhenhan set off on his journey all alone, and before he knew it, he had quietly entered the interior of the Southern Cross Star Forest from the Bering Range.
Free from responsibility and burden, Liu Zhenhan fully immersed himself in the vast nature around him.
The scenery of the Southern Cross Star Forest was beautiful, with sprawling vines and thick moss covering the ground.
The towering ancient trees here all stood over forty meters tall, the singing of the birds and the roars of the beasts, the sounds of the rustling pines even more profound and ancient.
The main reason why Liu Zhenhan did not go to the Bearman camp of the Pier Race in Donau Wasteland was because he was annoyed with the pesky Goblins.
Another reason was that he wanted to meet the Titan Giants here.
Deep in the vast Southern Cross Star Forest, among the uneven hills and the dense forest blotted out from the sun, scattered dozens of Mountain Giant and Hill Giant tribes.
These one-eyed giants are said to be the descendants of Titans, standing around five blades high.
They are incredibly strong, capable of throwing large stones and easily breaking trees.
Giants are an extremely xenophobic race, only getting along well with their relations, the Dwarves.
If any other race trespasses their territory, they would be smashed into a pulp.
Originally, the best candidate to guard this area was the Divine Power Elephant warriors of the Orephin tribe, but the elephant clan has a sparse population and is already deployed on the northeastern border, so Beamon king had no choice but to assign the task to the bear warriors of the Pier tribe, known for their strength among the five noble families of his lineage.
Although the bear warriors of the Pier tribe are still not as strong as the Titan Giants, adding in their vassal clan, the Buer Tribe’s Tauren Warriors who are also known for their strength, they at least have the advantage in numbers to force the Titan Cyclops to be more wary.
Liu Zhenhan was always curious about the part of the dragon’s strength he gained from the curse, he was eager to compete with these giants.
However, to his disappointment, since entering this vast Southern Cross Star Forest, he had not come across any giant tribes, but he had encountered many magical beasts.
Bipedal Flying Dragons, giant vampire bats, gryphons, almost every day he would encounter a new species, which truly widened Liu Zhenhan’s horizons. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by N0velFire.ɴet
Gradually, he noticed that the magical beasts here also seemed to have clearly defined territories.
The moment he entered a certain magical beast’s territory, he would immediately be attacked by that species of magical beast.
Areas with waterfalls and streams, however, were public territories and relatively safe.
After several days of travel, Liu Zhenhan’s bag was filled with several top-grade Magical Beast crystal nuclei.
Those magical beasts who had the audacity to challenge him had all fell under the terrible Wolf Fang Club and the fists of Chaidai Golden Man.
The only regret Liu Zhenhan had was that he encountered a rare unicorn today.
When he rushed to attack, the unicorn turned on its heels and ran.
Liu Zhenhan pointed at the retreating unicorn and cursed.
By the time for camping at night, Liu Zhenhan counted on his fingers and checked the map, estimating that he should be close to the settlement of the Pier tribe.
He was in a pretty good mood.
In front of the campfire, Liu proudly displayed his past half month’s loot.
Several large crystal nuclei in the night sky and the campfire shone beautifully, filling Liu Zhenhan’s heart with joy.
However, there was also disappointment.
One of the injured Chaidai Golden Man who had many battles scars had one of its arms damaged in the fight with the gryphon.
This discovery made Liu Zhenhan feel a little bit of loss alongside his joy.
He finally understood why the priests and old man Robert displayed such a coy attitude towards their coming to the Southern Cross Star Forest for their spirit sacrifice trial.
In a forest swarming with magical beasts , without the protection of an army, if he did not have his own strong power, it would be a place to come for suicide.
“Master Cui Beixi is such a nice person, she gave us so many crystal nuclei, and she’s so beautiful.” Liu Zhenhan took a puff of his cigar, laid back on the grass, looked up at the star-studded night sky, and indulged in wild thoughts, his mind full of messy ideas.
The aroma of food buried under the campfire interrupted Liu Zhenhan’s daydreaming.
Liu Zhenhan moved the campfire aside, used a curved knife to dig open a layer of thin soil covered beneath the fire, and pulled out a hot, fragrant, big melon.
This melon was left from his island trip.
There were less than ten melons at the time, Liu Zhenhan gave one to each of the three beauties, and the rest were given to Gude and his group.
Helen and Ning Yu’s melons were eaten by the animals a long time ago, Ning Yu and Helen always kind of spoiled Guoguo making him a bit fat.
Avril has always been reluctant to eat her melon.
Guoguo wanted to steal it, but was caught and scolded by her.
On the first day Liu Zhenhan entered the Southern Cross Star Forest, he discovered this slightly shriveled, green-skinned melon in his bag, which warmed his heart.
Actually, Avril has changed a lot now!
Thinking about the past and the present, Liu Zhenhan felt a bit sorry for Little Ai- particularly in regards to his attitude.
He should be nicer to her in the future.
While thinking about it, Liu Zhenhan opened up the melon.
