It's a snake.

Dongyun couldn't see clearly, but she did see a black tail.

Knowing there were snakes in the jungle, he was still panicked, even though he was prepared.

He has two fears about living things: those without legs and those with many legs.

Of course, he was afraid of ferocious beasts like tigers and wild boars, but his fear of tigers and wild boars was different from his fear of snakes, centipedes, and spiders. His fear of tigers and wild boars was a fear of death, while his fear of snakes, centipedes, and spiders was a fear of wanting to die.

Dongyun longed to go back, but he kept walking forward.

There were no human traces in the jungle, but there were various paths leading in, paths made by animals.

At first, he didn't notice, but after being reminded by the comments, he noticed the path beneath his feet, which was probably only a little wider than a ruler, amidst the fallen leaves.

The road was covered with fallen leaves, and there were no footprints or droppings, so it was impossible to tell what kind of animal was walking on it.

"I understand!"

"Coo coo coo! Coo coo coo! Coo coo coo!"

The cicadas chirped and the birds sang, making the jungle very lively.

To avoid getting lost, Dongyun always walked along the animal trails, and every few steps he would hit a tree trunk near his shoulder with a stone as a marker to prevent getting lost.

So itchy...

Dongyun scratched the back of his hand.

He had been bitten countless times by mosquitoes in the jungle.

Face, ears, chin, back of hands, arms, fingers, knuckles, belly, thighs, calves, toes...

He was bitten on every exposed part of his body that wasn't covered by clothing. Even in areas covered by clothing, vicious mosquitoes still managed to bite him several times through his clothes.

Gabriel's clothes were too small to completely cover his upper body, and Nadeshiko's skirt was too short for him. Besides, a skirt isn't pants, so his lower body was also badly bitten. Left with no other option, he tore off some leaves, squeezed out the juice, and applied it to the bites.

He didn't know if it would help, but it was better than nothing.

The presence of mosquitoes is actually good news, indicating that there is water in the jungle, though it's unclear whether it's clean.

Dongyun reached out again to grab the leaf beside her.

In that instant, he saw a green human face on the tree and was dumbfounded.

"I'll fuck your mother!"

Dongyun was so frightened he almost jumped out of his skin; he retreated in terror.

He looked closely and realized what the green face was—it was a spider, a large spider.

That's a spider?!

Dongyun felt a chill run down her spine and retreated again.

It wasn't that he was a coward; it was that the spider-like monster in front of him had shattered his worldview.

Can you imagine a spider the size of a soccer ball?

This isn't a spider, it's a spider demon! It's huge!

What's most outrageous is that this spider is not only green like its surroundings, but it also has a terrifying "human face" on its abdomen, and its rear end is covered with fuzzy, almost blackish-green hairs that look like human hair.

Fortunately, the spider remained still and did not react.

No, it's eating.

His attention was drawn to the "human face" on the spider's abdomen, and he didn't notice its head, where its thick fangs were tightly biting an unknown animal.

The animal's head was completely inside the spider's mouth, and judging from its body below the head, it looked like... a monkey?

Dongyun, who recognized him, felt only absurdity.

Judging by its size, it appears to be a baby monkey.

But what if a spider is preying on a baby monkey?

Suddenly, Dongyun felt that his already dangerous jungle exploration trip had become even more dangerous.

Chapter 24: Those who surpass coconuts will be slain!

My cabinet has been moved, I'm not looking at it anymore.

[What is this? It feels so numb!]

I'm not watching anymore, I can't bear to watch.

Brothers, it's not that I'm a coward, I just have something to do, I have to go now.

[Is that a spider with a human face? How can it be so big?]

[They've already time-traveled, and you're still asking why the spider is so big?]

[This spider is so big, could it be the same species as the spiders we have here?]

[Brother Yun, let him take a bite and see, maybe he can become a failed man.]

[Hey streamer, aren't you leaving yet?! Are you waiting for it to finish eating so it can eat your mom?!]

[Terrifying! This spider must be eating monkeys! I'm totally dumbfounded!]

……

Viewers watching the anime livestream had the same reaction when they saw the soccer ball-sized spider and Shinonome.

They were all terrified, and those with weaker constitutions were too scared to watch.

As I've said before, the audience's perspective and Shinonome's perspective are not exactly the same.

When Higashino saw the "face," he maintained a certain distance, while the audience saw it in a close-up with a large camera. Not only could they see the "face" on the spider's abdomen, but they could also see the eerie green fuzz on this "face."

Some viewers were so frightened that they threw their phones away, while others were so scared that they punched and smashed their computer screens.

Dongyun ignored the comments and, after maintaining what he considered a safe distance from the human-faced spider, carefully observed his surroundings.

He was panicked.

He was not only afraid of the spider in front of him, but also worried that there were more spiders around him.

However, the presence of mosquitoes and monkeys suggests that there is likely fresh water nearby.

When surviving in the wild, be aware of mosquitoes, flies, and bees, especially bees and flies.

Bees typically live within a 6-kilometer radius of their hive; therefore, water sources are unlikely to be more than 6 kilometers away from the hive. In contrast, flies usually stay within 100 meters of a water source, indicating the presence of flies within 1000 meters.

The same principle applies to monkeys.

Insects require less water than mammals, and monkeys definitely need fresh water to survive.

This is good news for him.

Without needing any prompts from the comments, after confirming that there were probably no other spiders around, Shinonome bypassed this path.

Listen for sounds in the jungle, look for monkey calls, and follow the monkeys to find a water source.

With hope in mind, Dongyun cautiously ventured deeper into the jungle.

He hadn't walked far when he heard strange cries.

"Hoohoo!"

"Squeak squeak!"

This is……!

Dongyun's eyes lit up with joy.

The monkey is making a sound!

If he wasn't mistaken, that must be the sound of a monkey, the sound of a monkey that he knew very well.

Dongyun looked up at the tree.

Several brown monkeys suddenly came into his view.

Great, found it!

Dongyun saw the monkeys, and the monkeys in the trees noticed him too, and more and more monkeys appeared.

The moment it saw him, it immediately let out a sharp "squeak squeak squeak" and its expression turned fierce.

"Ok?"

The tree where the monkey was was too tall, and the monkey's face was very hairy, so Dongyun couldn't see the monkey's expression clearly, but he knew that the monkey was shouting so fiercely to drive him away.

The local monkeys are so rude.

Dongyun stared at the monkey, a thoughtful expression on his face.

The monkey has been found, but how to find water? Should we wait for the monkey to get thirsty and then follow it, or should we blindly try our luck nearby to see if we can find a water source? With mosquitoes and monkeys around, the chances of finding water by searching in low-lying areas are still quite optimistic.
