Chapter 45: The Devil's Smile

Ivan's astonishing speed, Maite had already seen it yesterday, but under the cover of the night, he didn't feel anything abnormal, but this time.

"This speed is difficult for even an ordinary C-rank hunter to do, right? Is he really a freshman? Matt was somewhat skeptical of Ivan's identity.

You must know that Ivan didn't use telekinesis, just relying on the strength of his physical body, it was enough to be comparable to the level of a C-level hunter, and this kind of strength was not like what ordinary freshmen could do at all, plus the momentum that could compete with him yesterday.

Originally, Matt thought that Ivan was a freshman from the Nile continent, who grew up in a special family and had amazing talents, although it was somewhat unexpected to him, but at least it was within the scope of his understanding.

After chatting with Annabel last night, I found out that Ivan had lived on a small island on the Epzhen continent since he was a child, and his parents died in a shipwreck when they went out fishing after he was born, and he was raised by his sister since he was a child, and he had not been exposed to much of the outside world at all.

Such growth conditions, coupled with the scene in front of him now, made Matt doubt Ivan's identity, and even wondered if there was a strong man who had awakened the ability to eat secretly killed Ivan, and through his special telepathic ability, he concealed everyone, thus replacing the dead new life, such a thing has not happened in the history of Yuanyue.

"The smell hasn't changed." Annabel said.

"Moreover, I talked to Pock, I heard that the little guy's food cells have not fully awakened, only a small part of them have awakened, and he has eaten B-grade food before, and the abnormality that happened to you last night should be the ability to just awaken in the past few days."

"You mean." Matt was stunned for a few seconds, and understood what Annabel meant.

Then all kinds of abnormalities in front of the new students can be explained.

The ability of food cells is strange, the most ordinary awakening can improve people's physical fitness several times, the most bizarre can curse humans, the most terrifying, and even the ability to manipulate space.

It's not like nothing hasn't happened before, because of the lack of energy supply by itself, or the food cells are too strong, resulting in things that can only be gradually awakened.

"It's really enviable!" Matt was a little jealous of Ivan's talent, to be honest.

During the conversation between the two, more than a dozen cards flew out of the body of the water frog and were included in the card space by the system.

Ivan took a closer look, only one was a prop card, and the others were upgrade cards of the whiteboard level, a total of twelve upgrade cards, with these upgrade cards, plus the bronze upgrade card obtained by killing the Iron Palm Bear yesterday, it was able to synthesize a silver-level card, which was undoubtedly a bumper harvest.

Card: 100 rounds of water bombs

Type: Item card

Level: Bronze [Medium]

Item cards that can shoot hundreds of powerful water bombs can easily tear through ancient trees, so please use them with caution.

……

Time passed, and the crisp morning had been replaced by a hot morning.

When Yena had finished dealing with the water frogs, Ivan had already made a small boat from the towering tree that had broken off from his waist.

Sixteen years on Flying Fish Island has taught him a lot of sailing and shipbuilding skills, and it is not difficult to make small wooden boats, and with his current physical fitness, he has not spent too much time on shipbuilding.

Although Ivan speculated that there should be a small boat nearby to cross the swamp, he did not look for it.

As long as you think about the far moon's routine, you can understand that those hidden boats may have some special effects that can attract other magical beasts in the swamp, as long as you use the boat to cross the swamp, there will definitely be accidents, anyway, Ivan doesn't believe in the far moon transformation, and he won't trick people.

In order to ensure safety, he decided to take matters into his own hands and have enough food and clothing to prevent the occurrence of danger from the root.

"Didn't you go looking for the boat?" Annabel was very satisfied with Ivan's new life of making the boat alone and not looking for it.

"Is there a boat?" Matt looked confused.

After all, in his line of sight, the figure of the boat was not seen at all.

"Of course there is, just over there." Annabel said and pointed to some of the more special groups of aquatic plants near the shore, but in Matt's eyes, the aquatic plants all looked similar, and there was no difference.

"That little guy should have also discovered some of the special aquatic plants, I'm afraid I saw a hidden boat, but I didn't look for it, it seems that he should have noticed something wrong with the boat."

As Ivan guessed, the existence of the boat is to ensure that the new students have a mindset that breaks the rules, and if they want to survive in the wild, they are not a little beyond the thinking of ordinary people, but they can easily die.

Different from the tips in the minefield, the tips of the boat are a pit, and the previous tips for the safety of the minefield are to pave the way for the boat, so that the freshmen think that what they get through the tips is safe, and fall into the wrong thinking, and they can't think that what reassures them the most is the most dangerous.

The boat is made of a special wood, which is colorless and odorless in the air, but the part that comes into contact with the water will emit a fragrance in the water, which can attract some creatures in the swamp.

Imagine how others react when one person discovers a boat?

The herd mentality peculiar to social creatures will come into play, and coupled with the previous confusion, there will definitely be a large number of new students who will capsize in small boats.

Soon after, Ivan and Yena's feet were once again on the hard dirt.

"It's nice to be safe and sound." Ye Na looked at the calm water behind her, visibly relieved.

"Yes, it's safe, let's go."

When crossing the swamp just now, a huge crocodile suddenly jumped up not far from the boat, swallowing a waterfowl flying in mid-air into its belly.

I almost overturned the boat, but in the end, I was in danger.

But the silver-level crocodile made Ivan wonder if the map he had gotten from Annabel had something he hadn't noticed.

This is only halfway through the map route, and such a terrifying crocodile appears, so what about the later route?

"It was really dangerous just now, after so many years, who would have thought that the original C-level swamp crocodile would be able to break through the limit and grow to B-level." Matt said, exhaling a cloudy breath from his mouth.

When that B-class crocodile came out, if it wasn't for Annabel to stop his actions, he probably wouldn't have stopped the assessment, with his C-rank peak strength, he couldn't compete with that terrifying crocodile at all, let alone ensure the safety of the freshmen.

"There's a B-class monster up ahead, um—" Annabel stood on the water, her eyes flashing, as if she was thinking about something.

"Matt, do me a favor." Annabel said, turning.

The smile on her face sent a shudder down the board, as if she had seen someone unlucky.
