Luo Xingzhou and his group's luck seemed to turn for the worse after they ran into a swarm of wild bees. That day, while they were looking for a place to spend the night in the field, it rained. Luckily, Luo Xingzhou noticed the difference in time. And Chen Kangning, as a Water Powerman, also confirmed that the water content in the air had increased. So when they were looking for a place to spend the night, they looked for a cave instead of camping outside in a tent.
At night, around ten o'clock local time. It started to rain outside. At first, the rain drops were not too strong. After about half an hour, the rain became heavier. Looking out from inside the cave, the whole planet seemed to be immersed in a world of water. The sound of rain was the only sound that could be heard. They could not hear any other sound.
Luo Xingzhou did not fall asleep after being awakened by the sound of rain, neither did Chen Kangning. Only Mi Luo curled up and slept soundly.
Lena looked at Luo Xingzhou and Chen Kangning and said, "It's lucky we had you guys to remind us. Otherwise, it would have been a disaster if we had slept out in the open at this time. No wonder we found a lot of insects when we cleaned this cave. Maybe they all came in to get out of the rain."
Huo Zhijun likewise found it much easier to team up with the boys along the way. She and Lena were very lacking in common sense in life. Even though they had made a strategy, it didn't mean they could use the knowledge they had well. "I don't know when this rain will stop. If it's still like this after dawn, we'll have to stay in this cave."
Luo Xingzhou nodded and said, "It's true. It's troublesome to travel on rainy days. And even if there is a cave to shelter from the rain, everyone has to be careful and alert. Listen, the sound of the rain muffles all other sounds."
"That's good. We can't be careless." Chen Kangning echoed.
Mi Luo slept soundly without a care in the world. But at midnight, he woke up anyway. He insisted on taking the night shift, and Huo Zhijun and Lena went to rest. He promised the two girls that he would wake everyone up immediately if there was any trouble.
Luo Xingzhou asked Jiu Tang to spread out a dense layer at the entrance of the cave, which Chen Kangning and Mi Luo found more secure. During this period, in addition to intercepting countless bugs, it also caught a dozen snakes. Its biggest gain was intercepting a giant snake that was thicker than an adult male's thigh and wanted to enter the cave to escape the rain.
After sending a message to Luo Xingzhou with his consciousness, Jiu Tang rolled up all the vines and attacked the python. Mi Luo stayed in the cave.
It was not easy to deal with this python on a rainy night. The snake's scales were slippery. Jiu Tang couldn't stop the python and was getting very frustrated. Fortunately, Chen Kangning was a Water Powerman. The rainy night was his field.
Seeing that he could not help, Jiu Tang suddenly used the bud at its top to aim at the python's mouth in a fit of frustration. When the python opened its mouth and was about to swallow Jiu Tang, Jiu Tang's bud blossomed. When the petals opened, a fragrance was sent into the python's mouth by Jiu Tang.
Luo Xingzhou quickly pulled the Jiu Tang back before it was swallowed by the python. The bud was grown after it swallowed the flower fields, and Jiu Tang loved its bud. Luo Xingzhou also felt that the bud had something to do with the flower fields. At this moment, seeing the bud blooming in advance, Luo Xingzhou thought it should be useful.
Chen Kangning shot water arrows into the python's mouth, which made it bleed a lot and went into rage. It opened its mouth to bite Chen Kangning. But at that moment, a strange situation suddenly happened. The fierce python suddenly swayed in the rain like it was drunk. After shaking for a while, along with a thud, it fell heavily on the ground.
Huo Zhijun and Lena finally woke up. They ran out to ask what happened. Then they saw a black shadow on the ground.
Chen Kangning was surprised and said, "What is this python doing? Did Jiu Tang do anything to it?"
Luo Xingzhou touched the bud that Jiu Tang stretched out in front of him and laughed, "Jiu Tang did it. Fortunately, this python is not smart enough. It tried to swallow this bud, but it was put down. Now it seems that this flower of Jiu Tang carries some ingredients like kncok-out drugs. But as long as it is in the shape of a bud, there is no danger."
Chen Kangning immediately thought of the flower field monster they had encountered before and asked, "Could it be that this is similar in effect to the scent emanating from that flower field?"
Luo Xingzhou was too embarrassed to tell them that the flower field had been swallowed by Jiu Tang. He only had to say, "It should be similar. I will keep an eye on it."
Chen Kangning waved his hand and said, "Jiu Tang is different from that flower field monster. I'm not worried about that. Rather, I think we have another helper, so maybe the next few days will be easier for us."
Huo Zhijun and Lena also came up and said, "Jiu Tang is amazing. That python was a Stellar Beast, right?"
"I think so."
Now that everyone was awake. They worked together to drag the python into the mouth of the cave to dispose of its carcass. After making sure its meat was edible, they left the most part of the python for Jiu Tang to devour. The remaining small portion was kept for their breakfast. And, they took out the skin, tendons, and the Beast Core. After seeing its Beast Core, everyone realized that the python was a Stellar Beast at Level C, which meant that the knock out fragrance of Jiu Tan would actually knock out a Level C Stellar Beast.
When they entered the cave, they also found the bud at the top of Jiu Tang wilted a little. Huo Zhijun and the others took the initiative to leave most of the python's flesh and blood for Jiu Tang to devour first so that it could recover as soon as possible.
When they first saw Jiu Tang eating flesh and blood, the others were a little uncomfortable. But after thinking about it, they didn't feel uncomfortable then. Because they also ate Stellar Beast's meat, and Jiu Tang was just eating the meat in a different way. Although the way it ate looked a bit horrible, Jiu Tang did so to extract the energy from Stellar Beast's flesh and blood for its growth.
As for Jiu Tang might be out of control? In the history of The Interstellar Empire, this kind of Companion Plant born with the Powermen awakening never being recorded once out of control, which reinforced the fact that Jiu Tang belonged to the Attack Function type and was a very powerful attack Companion Plant. The others felt this information was enough for them.
At first, they were not used to it. But now, they all voluntarily fed Jiu Tang. Look, this evening, Jiu Tang did a great job again.
Everyone cleaned up the ground. After that, the blood was also washed away by the rain. The five sat in the cave chatting and waiting for dawn. They were either Powermen or Beastmen, and staying awake for one night didn't affect them much. Just when they thought the night was about to pass, Mi Luo's ear twitched. Luo Xingzhou also noticed something.
"Xingzhou, did you hear something?"
Luo Xingzhou looked at Mi Luo, "Mi Luo, you heard it too? I think I heard the sound of rain and someone calling for help."
"Oh man, let's go out to check it out?" The only creatures on the planet besides Stellar Beast were the contestants of the show. They had checked the information before, and there were no native humans present on this planet.
"Mi Luo and Lena should stay here. The three of us will go out and have a look." Huo Zhijun suggested. Lena was a Fire Powerman. And her combat strength was greatly reduced by a rainy night. So she should stay in the cave.
"Good! Let's go." Luo Xingzhou rushed into the rain, Chen Kangning and Huo Zhijun followed him behind. Neither of them heard the movement, so they had to follow Luo Xingzhou.
Walking in the heavy rain, visibility was greatly reduced. But Luo Xingzhou and Chen Kangning were much less affected than others. Following Luo Xingzhou in a rush, ten minutes later they saw the silhouette of a man calling for help. There were two men who were exhausted from running in the rain.
Chen Kangning wiped the rain from his face and recognized the two men. He said, "No way! One is Fang Yang and the other is Ding Changhuan. Fang Yang is a Level B Powerman. He even had to run for his life to call for help! So, whoever is chasing them behind..."
Chen Kangning's next words stuck in his throat. Because the thing chasing the two had appeared in the trio's view. That thing was tall. Even Huo Zhijun saw it. When they saw the huge thing, she and Chen Kangning's pupils suddenly shrank.
Holy shit! This was actually a Unicorn Lion, a Stellar Beast at Level B. In the past, when they saw a creature like this, they could only run away.
To save or not to save, that was a question.
This Stellar Beast was said to be extremely vindictive. Once it was angered, it would not stop tangling with the creature that angered it. With their strength, they could not fight this Stellar Beast now.
There were still many people watching online on the live streaming platform. Although the pouring rain made the live screen greatly affected, the people and scenery of the live broadcast did not look so real. But even so, the viewers could understand the situation faced by the contestants at this time.
"Don't help! Or you will be killed together!" Someone was very anxious in the comment section.
"Don't panic! One of the two people being chased by the Stellar Beast is Fang Yang, a Level B Powerman. If he and Luo Xingzhou work well together, they may be able to solve this Stellar Beast. At least they will be able to save themselves."
"Luo Xingzhou is just a newly awakened Wood Powerman. How can he fight with a Level B Stellar Beast? You guys are really exaggerating his abilities, which will only kill him!"
"Don't argue with those people! How will they know the real strength of our Luo Xingzhou and Jiu Tang? But this time, it's up to Fang Yang whether he can cooperate or not. If they can cooperate well, they can finish that Stellar Beast." And they were looking forward to Jiu Tang, who finished a Level B Stellar Beast on the first day of entering The Red Planet, which impressed the audience.
"Ah! Holy crap! Who is that but-head! He pushed Fang Yang into the Stellar Beast so he could escape? Shit!"
"Save him! Save Fang Yang! That stupid bastard deserves to die!"
The sudden situation in front of the live camera made the viewers scream. They wanted to go through the screen and went into the battle field to throw that bastard to the Stellar Beast and replace him with Fang Yang. But they simply couldn't do it. They could only worry about their place.
Fang Yang was also confused at this moment, and the Unicorn Lion behind was not. The Unicorn Lion's foul breath was sprayed on his neck. He felt that he was going to be bitten off by this Unicorn Lion the next moment.
'Why? Why did you do this? Ding Changhuan! Do you think you can survive by launching me to fend off this Stellar Beast?' Fang Yang screamed to himself in despair and sadness.
Ding Changhuan said in a tearful voice, "Brother Yang, I don't want to do this! But I have to do this! I want to live! Brother Yang, I will live for you."
