Chapter 25: Fangs in the Fog!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Do you really think that I’ll fall for your trap?”

Liao Fan sneered

He took twenty-two steps back.

Now, he was at the starting location!

‘I’m sure of this.

‘It’s just basic calculations.’

Although the monster in the fog had altered his path, the range would not change.

Then, Liao Fan drew a circle on the map.

He just needed to record his steps and find where his villager was waiting for him.

That was the difficult part.

The thick fog would disrupt one’s vision.

It was not easy to maneuver around specifically.

However, Liao Fan had pinpointed the starting location. 

This was his advantage. 

As long as he was careful, he would not get lost.

Sooner or later, he would find the second villager!

After confirming the route that he was going to take, Liao Fan held the map in his hand and began to walk along the road.

He was on high alert!

Liao Fan would never underestimate the thing in the fog. 

Its actions kept surprising him!

They were in a battle of wits and courage.

One would make things difficult for the other and vice versa.

…

‘358.

‘359.’

After taking the three hundred and sixtieth step, Liao Fan stopped.

He was not sure if he was walking on the intended path.

After all, he did not have a compass. 

When he looked behind him, the fog was still as thick as ever!

Meanwhile, in front of him was the desert!

It seemed that Liao Fan had reached the end of the road.

If he went any further, he would be returning to his thatched cottage.

Liao Fan could not help but frown.

There was no time to waste.

Even though he had a map, there were no reference objects around. 

It was hard to fully rely on anything!

Liao Fan had tried to draw the map as accurately as possible.

There was the desert, dense forest, second thatched hut, water stream, mound, berry tree, and the place with the pile of bones.

However, it was not very clear because it was just the generic area.

…

Liao Fan had recorded everything he could on the map.

He could return to his starting position but linear paths were a different story.

After seeing the desert, Liao Fan drew another critical point on the map.

This critical point was the second boundary that Liao Fan found. 

It bordered the dense forest.

Suddenly, the system’s notification sound could be heard.

[ Ding! Congratulations to Lord Liao Fan for exploring 20% of this area. ]

‘20% already?

‘So I’ve never been to this place before.’

Once he had explored sixty percent of the area, the fog would disperse.

This was a huge achievement!

Yesterday, Liao Fan only explored five percent of the area.

Today, with his large number of torches, he had covered another fifteen percent of the place.

At this speed, he would have explored the entire area in less than seven days.

Of course, Liao Fan knew that before that could happen, he needed to upgrade his security, find other safe houses, and further evolve his villagers.

At the same time, he also wanted to find the Ruins.

So, it would be best if he could scavenge and come across a light red stone as soon as possible.

That way, he could make the tri-colored light platform. 

The best-case scenario would be that someone had it and wanted to trade for other things.

Liao Fan would not mind trading a bunch of resources, like food, for it.

No one could refuse food in such an environment.

Furthermore, he needed to quickly craft the wooden fences.

There was still so much that Liao Fan needed to do.

Thirty-four minutes had passed.

Only twenty-six minutes were left.

Liao Fan had to hasten himself.

The second villager had yet to be found and there was not much time left.

They must return to the thatched cottage soon!

Liao Fan looked at the sky.

It was also covered in thick fog. 

He could not tell the time.

Regardless, it should be almost evening.

There would only be dangers at night. 

Thinking of this, Liao Fan frowned.

He tried his best to look for clues on the ground.

At the same time, under the light of the torch, he could also see a wisp of white eyes slowly drifting over.

The fog had finally bared its fangs. 

The monsters had lost their patience!
