Chapter 3: Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain

Wu Wei was lying on the bed, his mouth unconsciously open enough to stuff an egg.

What is it, alien technology or a godly creation?

At this time, the system stays in two options, first, novice navigation task (required), second, lottery.

It was just a moment, Wu Wei's surprise turned into excitement, if it wasn't a dream, it was the opportunity God gave me.

Thinking of the lottery opportunity, the novice task did not pick up immediately, and chose the second lottery first.

The picture directly turned into a string of question marks in the streamer, and only a second later, a large question mark appeared in the picture, and then flashed and turned into a card.

Congratulations on obtaining a one-time item: Lucky Alchemy Card, rarity (silver), role description, and increase the success rate of alchemy of a designated creature by 30%.

Then only the novice task was selected on the screen, and Wu Wei didn't know where the props were drawn.

Lying on the bed and hesitating, in the end, Wu Wei still chose to accept the novice navigation task.

System Tips: According to the user's current situation, a novice navigation task will be automatically generated, which will involve the capture of beasts, the use of basic functions such as creature refining, and will later be teleported to the built-in beast hunting space of the system - Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain: Although the name is ten thousand beasts, there are countless rare beasts on it, although it is called a mountain, but the mountains, rivers, grasslands, swamps and other landforms in it are all included.

Note: The target must be touched without a sense of resistance to capture it.

Beginner Quest Content: Find and capture two beasts, successfully synthesize your first alchemy creature, and complete it with the option to leave the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts.

Rewards: 3 alchemy energy points, 2 alchemy creature storage slots.

Teleportation begins.

Wu Wei only barely understood these meanings, and the next second he disappeared on the bed in the bedroom.

。。。

When Wu Wei reacted, he had already arrived at a withered yellow prairie, stood up and looked into the distance, the grassland area on one side was boundless at all, and turned to look behind him, there was a forest in a seemingly short distance.

A hot wind blew, causing a large meadow to rise and fall, and it was still noon.

Am I really not dreaming?

Wu Wei couldn't help but rub his eyes, the wind that blew slowly brought a dead grass to hit his face, and all the touches told him that it was true.

Calming down and walking aimlessly on the grassland, Wu Wei thought about how to complete the novice task, in the case of no sense of resistance to the goal?

Is it to be subdued or stunned? Wu Wei thought of the anime PokΓ©mon he watched when he was a child.

Looking into the distance again, the most visible was a herd of antelopes, and there were no other animals, perhaps there would be other animals under the tall grass, such as predators.

Punch a smart smart, and it seems that you are now likely to be listed as a target for capture!

Now the first priority should be to protect yourself first, and it may be a good choice to go to the tree, and the tree that can be seen is the forest.

For the sake of his life, Wu Wu immediately began to trot hard.

。。。

Behind the dead grass in the distance, a pair of cloudy amber eyes were watching the moving Wu Wei, who was slower and looked poorly balanced than the agile antelopes, and Wu Wei was obviously a much easier target to catch.

The predator's huge body lay motionless in the grass, its mighty mane undulating in the wind, its withered yellow fur mottled with mottled skin, and a hideous tearing wound on the muscle of its left forelimb, pus mixed with blood, flowed from time to time.

This is an old male lion who was expelled from his territory some time ago by the lion group he ruled for 6 years, and they have a new lion king.

Wu Wei moved forward with difficulty, the height of the withered grass was higher than his knees, and the march in this situation was much more difficult than in the field show he watched on TV.

Passing by the herd of antelopes, the antelopes in the vicinity jumped and ran away when they saw him approaching, and their agility made Wu Wei unable to arouse the slightest desire to capture.

The wind changed direction, from the forest to the grassland.

The whole herd of antelopes suddenly became uneasy.

I have never eaten pork but have seen pigs run, I have seen the wild weekend in the animal world from childhood to adulthood, and the movement of the antelope herd cannot be caused by Wu Wei, they are more curious about him than afraid, so there is only one explanation for this situation.

The predator is approaching, just behind him.

The forest is already in sight.

At this time, it was too late to hide or something, and the antelope could smell the smell, which meant that the predator was not far away, and Wu Wei accelerated his speed.

"Roar~" A lion's roar came from behind him, and the sudden change in wind direction exposed the predator, and it jumped directly out of the grass to chase Wu Wei.

Wu Wei knew that something was wrong when he heard the lion's roar, and glanced back as he ran.

Damn, it's a lion, and he's coming straight at him.

At this moment, Wu Wu began to run desperately, and a large piece of grass in front of the forest began to shorten, from no knee to just calf.

Wu Wei almost ran a few steps before he looked back in the middle of running, afraid of being suddenly knocked down, but after running into the low grass, he began to realize that something was wrong.

He doesn't know what the specific speed of the lion is, but it must be many times faster than a person, from the beginning of the discovery of the lion to the present, he has run from the deep grass to the short grass, and will soon be able to enter the forest, although he is out of breath, but his physical strength should be able to hold on.

It stands to reason that he should have been caught up and knocked down, although it is a little strange to think so, but this is the trajectory of the development of events.

Unless!

Wu Wei turned his head and deliberately carefully observed the male lion during this run, and sure enough, there was a dark red on the thigh of its left forelimb, and a terrifying wound that could not be ignored lay on its leg, making the whole lion limp when it ran.

The injury was almost immediately apparent when the lion ran into a wide area of vision such as a low meadow, which was covered by grass in the deep meadow.

Wu Wei's heart began to heat up, a seriously injured lion, what chance is there better than now, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to catch a lion by himself.

Then, Wu Wei began the process of observing while fleeing, and the temptation to catch the lion even made him forget about the other potential dangers here.

Wu Wei boldly turned a sharp turn in the run, and the lion was too seriously injured in his leg, so it was really difficult to change direction, and even fell.

Slowly, Wu Wei found that the lion was almost injured all over his body, there were three suppurations alone, the fur on his body was already incomplete, his body was skinny, and he had obviously not eaten for a long time.

Even from a layman's point of view like Wu Wei, he understands that this is an old lion who is on the verge of death, but even so, if he dares to approach, it will instantly become a delicious dinner for the old lion.

The old lion's already small physical strength has been exhausted, and although Wu Wei is so tired that he just wants to collapse and rest, he still has the ability to grit his teeth and move.

From time to time, he threw a stone at the old lion in the distance, causing the latter to roar weakly.

Wu Wei can finally confirm that for the time being, the lion can't eat itself, but he can't wait, otherwise it will recover a little strength, and it can't stop it if it is ready to continue to catch itself or run away.

In the process of trying to figure out a way, Wu Wei felt all over his pockets, and only took out half a pack of cigarettes, a piece of chocolate, and a lighter.

The wind on the grassland is unpredictable, and it will become a blow from the forest to the depths of the grassland.

This is the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts, not the territory of any country, you shouldn't be caught setting fire, and the opportunity is fleeting, you can't wait for the wind direction to change again, otherwise you will commit suicide by arson.

Wu Wei silently walked to the nearest safe reaction distance to the lion, and then bent down to light the lighter.

The dry grass was almost instantaneous, and the fire grew at a terrifying rate, and the surrounding temperature instantly became scorching.

Wu Wei looked at the rapidly expanding fire, wishing that the animals on the grassland could escape from the fire, and hoped that the old lion would not be burned to death.

The old lion instinctively wanted to flee when he saw the flames burning in his direction, but his injuries were too serious, and his physical strength was exhausted, and he struggled to walk two steps before falling to the ground and being chased by the flames, letting out a miserable lion roar.

Five minutes later, the grassland fire, which formed a wall of fire, spread deeper into the grassland.

On the grassland, the monstrous smoke was wafting over, and the intense fire reflected half of the sky, and all the animals were fleeing for their lives.

Wu Wei covered his mouth and nose with his left hand, endured the hot air in his lungs, and tiptoed to the position of the old lion, where only the charred black object with the outline of a lion was left.

When he got closer, the lion didn't move at all, it looked like it had been burned to death, and he was unwilling to give up, Wu Wei put his hand on its body, endured the burning sensation in his hand, and selected OK in the capture options that popped up in the system.

A little spot of light shrouded the lion's charred body, and after a while, the whole lion turned into light chips and disappeared, and the system sent a prompt that the capture was successful, and the material was obtained, the male lion.
