Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

Glug... Glug...

Chen Xi and Yang Wei walked side by side, the floor beneath their feet feeling cold and hard, with a metallic texture.

Each step produces a "bubbling" sound, similar to bubbles bursting, which is particularly clear in the silent metropolis.

This enormous city did not exist independently of the Jelly Sea; the two were still in the seawater at this moment.

Yet you can hardly feel any water resistance; the resistance is so weak it's almost negligible, and moving around is no different from being on land.

Running, jumping, R&B, and other movements are completely unaffected.

"At our current speed, we should arrive at our destination in about half an hour." Chen Xi gave a relatively accurate estimate of the time based on the current speed and the estimated distance.

The voice just fell.

Whoosh!

A sharp, piercing sound suddenly broke the silence of the giant city, so jarring it sent chills down one's spine.

"Watch out!" Chen Xi reacted quickly and immediately warned.

Whoosh!!

The sound grew clearer, carrying a strong sense of pressure.

Although Chen Xi could not see the object, he judged from the ripples in the water that it was very large and was rapidly approaching at low altitude.

Is it a danger unique to the safe zone?

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Chen Xi grabbed Yang Wei beside him and threw a flying sword.

Carrying Yang Wei, they flew on their swords, quickly darting to the side in an attempt to avoid the sudden attack.

Whoosh! ! !

The violent fluctuations persisted relentlessly, showing no signs of abating.

"Damn it, it's still getting closer! Looks like it's coming for us, it's already locked onto us!" Chen Xi frowned, a thought forming in his mind.

In just a few seconds, the dark figure caught up and its massive body suddenly appeared.

It was a monster that resembled a giant, upright snake, constantly flicking its forked tongue, but its tail was not a snake's tail, but rather a mermaid-like tail fin covered with fine scales.

Its entire body is covered in reddish-brown scales that gleam with a cold metallic sheen, and it has a pair of wings on its back that resemble those of a Western dragon.

However, these wings appear extremely small compared to its enormous body, as if they were merely decorations.

But these tiny wings are by no means just for show; as they flap rapidly, they generate powerful propulsion, which, combined with the wriggling of the tail in the seawater, creates a powerful propulsive force.

This created a bizarre mode of movement that combined swimming and flying, with astonishing speed.

This snake is a perfect spokesperson for swimming and fitness.

Even more astonishingly, this "giant snake" had two thick arms with sharp claws extending from its fingertips, gleaming coldly and resembling the claws of Wolverine, exuding a sharpness capable of tearing everything apart.

This is a composite monster that combines features of snakes, mermaids, lizards, and Wolverine. Its size is comparable to a seven-story apartment building, and it is extremely imposing.

Let's call you "King Kong Beauty Lizard".

Chen Xi quickly decided on the name.

The name may not be elegant, but it accurately captures its core characteristics.

"No name!" Yang Wei reported the crucial information immediately, as it was his duty.

Empty?

Excluding special cases, Yang Wei's "truth" should be able to be seen by name for anyone or anything possessing "extraordinary power".

Previously, Yang Wei couldn't see Tanu's name, and Chen Xi had specifically thought about this issue.

He believed that Tanu's abilities resembled extraordinary power, but were not extraordinary power.

It leans more towards innate instincts, like birds can fly and fish can swim, rather than "extraordinary power" that is innate or awakened later.

Therefore, the fact that this golden lizard snake did not reveal its name suggests that it is less threatening.

"This must be the danger within the safe zone." Chen Xi's expression was grave. "This kind of danger is comparable to a Tier III expert, and we're only Tier II right now, so we must be extremely cautious!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the King Kong Beauty Lizard closed in.

It rubbed its sharp claws together, making a sizzling sound, and locked its eyes on the two of them, looking eager to try.

"Boss, watch out!" Yang Wei reciprocated with a warning, but the next second, he was completely stunned. The King Kong Lizard's target was actually him!

The golden lizard crossed its claws into an "X" shape, its sharp claws gleaming coldly in the water. It lunged forward, intending to tear Yang Wei to pieces!

"Stop!" On instinct, Yang Wei issued his lawyer's letter.

The Golden Lizard Serpent naturally wouldn't obey. As its ability was activated, a lawyer's letter shimmering with golden light appeared out of thin air.

It shot straight toward the monster with a sharp whooshing sound.

The other party showed no intention of dodging; the two were like magnets attracting each other, and the golden lawyer's letter collided violently with the golden lizard snake.

However, Yang Wei's all-out single-target attack only shattered a single scale on the opponent's chest, causing only minor damage!

After his all-out attack failed, Yang Wei froze on the spot, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

The Golden Lizard wouldn't give him a chance to recover; its crossed claws were already upon him, the sharp tips almost touching his nose, and the aura of death was overwhelming.

At the critical moment.

"Turn your face to me!" Chen Xi roared, raising his hand without hesitation and delivering a swift Kun-style elbow strike to Yang Wei's cheek.

The considerable impact sent Yang Wei flying, narrowly avoiding the Golden Lizard's fatal claw.

Chen Xi was thus exposed to the opponent's attack range because of this action.

But this was part of his plan.

call out!

Chen Xi and Li Yaozu, whom she had just summoned, swapped positions.

As early as when he was confirmed to be targeted by the King Kong Lizard, Chen Xi had already begun summoning Li Yaozu.

Now that his strength is almost at Tier III, the preparation time for summoning Li Yaozu has been greatly shortened, and he no longer needs to go through a long wait and delay as he did at the beginning.

The claws that were supposed to fall on Li Yaozu stopped abruptly in mid-air just before they touched his body.

The Golden Lizard's pupils contracted slightly, seemingly puzzled by the sudden change in position. Then, its gaze shifted and locked onto Yang Wei, who had just regained his footing!

"Whoosh!"

It flapped its miniature wings on its back, its tail thrashing violently in the seawater, and once again charged towards Yang Wei with that strange, mixed movement, its attack even more ferocious than before.

Chen Xi was startled upon seeing this.

What's going on?

Even though he was the one who was sunk by the Jelly Sea, why does the danger in this safe zone keep targeting Yang Wei?
