Chapter 25: The Shadow Hidden in the Waterhole

It's really good here.

When I walked in, I found that this waterhole is actually not small, about three meters in diameter.

At this time, a bright moon was reflected on the water.

Chen Ke glanced into the depths of the pool, but did not see the bottom of the pool, and could not figure out its depth for the time being.

There are a few bluestones on the edge of the pool, which are quite flat and suitable for resting.

Not far from the waterhole, there is also a crooked-necked tree, with lush branches and leaves, thick trunk, and many branches, which grow intertwined, and have become a climate.

There is water, there are trees, and there are bluestones.

Chen Ke likes it very much.

He and the orange cat looked at each other, and they both saw the satisfaction in each other's eyes.

Without further ado, Chen Ke decided to occupy the territory immediately.

He wasn't worried about leaving the orange cat alone in the waterhole, because he hadn't smelled any beasts in the vicinity when he came.

In addition, even if it encounters danger, the orange cat can climb a tree to escape.

After leaving its own breath in this col.

Chen Ke walked out of the col and walked about a kilometer to the west, where he met a group of white-rumped deer resting on the grass.

They were not alarmed.

After walking a few hundred meters, he also left a 'mark' in that area

Then Chen Ke took the small mountain col as the center and encircled the land within a radius of 2,000 meters as his own territory.

He smelled three of the same kind in the middle of the way.

Three directions.

It should be three wolf packs, faintly opposite.

His col seemed to be caught in the middle.

Chen Ke didn't pay much attention to it.

Maybe the three wolves didn't look down on his small place, so they didn't include it in their territory.

A stream of heat flashed through the forehead ray, and the alpha ray reset, plus the initial number of uses for the day.

He currently has two rays.

I suddenly felt a little rich.

Returning to the waterhole of the mountain col, the orange cat lay on the bluestone by the pool, looking at the fireflies in a daze.

Chen Ke found a large bluestone, and after lying on it, he closed his eyes.

The orange cat thought he was tired.

After watching it bored for a while, it sighed and slowly fell asleep.

Chen Ke didn't actually sleep.

He closed his eyes and immediately turned on the system.

The achievement quest 'Humble Territory' has been completed.

New tasks have emerged.

1. Achievement Quest (Normal): 'Lurker's Buster'Find out the Lurker, it is a ghost hidden in the shadows, a powerful hunter, a cruel killer, and has a super high camouflage talent, which can even threaten your life, please find it as soon as possible!

2. Unlock Gamma Ray progress: 5/100

Chen Ke suddenly opened his eyes.

A glimmer of light flashed in the wolf's eyes, there was a hunter hiding here!

He didn't even realize that if it weren't for the prompt to complete the mission, he and the orange cat might have been killed silently tonight!

Chen Ke stood up and jumped off the rock.

He arched the orange cat with his mouth, waking it up.

He began to examine the col in earnest.

First of all, he walked around the bluestone pile, and he looked carefully at each bluestone, and there was nothing abnormal.

Then he easily jumped up to the crooked-necked tree, stood on the branch, and looked up.

There was nothing but the shaking branches.

The orange cat looked at him with a puzzled face, he couldn't sleep well, and what kind of wind did he suddenly smoke.

Chen Ke jumped off the tree.

His gaze finally fell on the pool, and he walked to the edge of the pool, staring at the gently rippling surface of the water that was blown by the breeze.

It was dark underwater, and nothing could be seen.

According to the mission, it is a ghost hidden in the shadows, with a super high talent for disguise.

The waterhole was swarthy and looked like a shadow.

If it is indeed hidden in the water, what can it be?

This hidden danger must be eliminated as soon as possible, it is like a knife hanging over the neck, and it will be cut down when they are not looking.

Chen Ke couldn't afford that kind of consequence.

He turned away, and after a while, returned to the waterhole with a stone in his mouth.

Chen Ke shook his head and threw the stone into the pool.

When the stone falls into the water, it makes a splash and makes a 'clatter' sound. The sound is a little muffled, indicating that this waterhole is very deep.

Gradually, the water surface returned to calm.

Chen Ke stared intently at the water.

After a long time, there was no movement, no shadow, and it was still pitch black.

Isn't it in the water?

Chen Ke motioned for the orange cat to follow him.

Seeing now, the orange cat also seems to understand the big white wolf's actions, he should have found something hidden here, and is trying to find out how to find it.

immediately obediently followed behind Chen Ke.

Half an hour passed.

He's back with the orange cat.

He searched all the corners of the col.

All places are excluded.

Now there is a waterhole left.

Only wait until tomorrow, the big deal is to be vigilant tonight, Chen Ke found some dead branches, densely spread around him and the orange cat.

If something approached, the sound of a dead branch being trampled was enough to alarm him.

When the time comes, just shoot the alpha rays out as soon as possible.

After arranging, he and the orange cat lay on a bluestone farthest from the edge of the waterhole.

Feeling the slightest coolness under him, Chen Ke finally relaxed a little.

After the orange cat fell asleep, Chen Ke still kept the movement on the waterhole.

Later, he turned on the system again.

Because he had just found out that the alpha rays had been upgraded before they were turned off.

Click on the Rays panel.

Alpha ray:

Ray level: 1 (Note: After reaching level 5, the ray will produce a one-time change)

Cooldown: 23 hours (Note: Currently the ray level is 1, the cooldown is reduced by 1 hour)

Number of uses: 2 (Note: Completing 1 achievement task increases the number of uses by 1)

Related introduction: 1. After the ray enters the corpse, it can extract genetic blood gas from it to strengthen the body. 2. After the ray enters the living body, it will randomly produce a terrifying energy, use it with caution! Use with caution! Use with caution! (As the level increases, the energy will become more and more diverse)

Chen Ke found that with the upgrade of alpha rays, the introduction of the system has changed in several places.

First of all, when the ray is upgraded to level 5, the ray will have a quantitative change, and the cooldown time will also be reduced by an hour, which means that the cooldown time is now 23 hours per day.

And as the level of the alpha ray increases, its terrifying energy, that is, the 'poisoned milk', will become more and more diverse.

Suddenly, Chen Ke became expectant.

While he was studying the system with great interest, the small waterhole, a silent circle of ripples suddenly appeared on the surface of the water.

A large black shadow slowly floated up from the depths of the pool, and when it rose to a certain height, it suddenly stopped there.

In the water, it suddenly opened its eyes.

At this time, the orange cat turned over beside Chen Ke, leaned on the big white wolf's body, and slept very sweetly.
