Brother Who Determines the Fate of the Nation: My Great Emperor's Cultivation Level Exposed by

Within the forbidden area.

Su Ruoruo's thirst grew stronger!

She must find water.

then.

She decided to leave the camp and go fetch water by herself!

On the other side, the camp was deathly silent. The remaining Chosen Ones huddled in their shelters, their faces filled with despair and fear.

The scorching heat of the day and the lack of water had pushed their bodies to their limits.

"Water, I need water..."

Princess Victoria of the British Empire could no longer maintain her royal elegance.

She slumped to the ground, her long golden hair covered in dust, her once noble face now only showing signs of disarray.

"Shut up, Victoria. No amount of shouting will make water fall from the sky."

Alice's voice was hoarse and irritable. She leaned against a tree and glared fiercely at the darkness not far away.

That girl from China has been gone into the darkness for almost an hour.

"She must be crazy, going to that lake alone. Who does she think she is? She's dead."

A wicked glee flickered across Alice's face, as if she were foreseeing Su Ruoruo being torn apart by the crocodile.

"It would be better if she were dead, so I wouldn't have to be bothered by her face."

She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone present understood what she meant.

For a moment, the women in the camp, facing certain death, looked into the depths of the jungle with not only fear, but also a hint of greed.

Inside the Dragon Kingdom's live stream room, the viewers' hearts were all in their throats.

"Ruoruo has been walking for almost an hour, why haven't we arrived yet? This forbidden area is too dangerous."

"Zoom the camera out a bit, I want to see if there are any ferocious beasts lurking around."

"These foreign players are absolutely rotten. They just sit in the camp waiting to die and even curse Ruoruo. What a bunch of ingrates."

"I believe in Ruoruo, she can definitely do it, she is Su Shen's sister."

After trekking through the jungle for nearly three kilometers, Su Ruoruo finally reached the end.

Suddenly, a vast lake appeared before her.

Silver moonlight spilled onto the lake, creating shimmering ripples, and the silence was eerily quiet.

A faint smell of blood filled the air.

Su Ruoruo didn't rush down immediately. She crouched down, hid behind a dense thicket of bushes, held her breath, and carefully observed the lake surface.

The lake water was very clear; under the moonlight, you could even see the aquatic plants swaying gently underwater.

Xue Nai's severed leg had long since disappeared, with only a few dried and blackened bloodstains remaining on a few rocks by the lake, silently telling the story of the tragedy that had occurred here not long ago.

That Class D black-armored crocodile lurks beneath the calm surface of this water.

Su Ruoruo didn't move; she remained in the same position, observing for a full half hour.

She saw several nocturnal animals cautiously run to the lake to drink, and after drinking, they quickly disappeared into the jungle. Throughout the whole process, the lake surface did not ripple at all.

The crocodile didn't seem to be here, or rather, it wasn't interested in these little guys.

opportunity.

Su Ruoruo's heart began to race, but her mind became increasingly calm.

She reaffirmed her plan: to take only one jug of water.

No matter what happens, get the water and leave immediately; never linger.

She untied the water bottle from her waist and held it in her left hand, while her right hand gripped the hilt of the Cold Light Sword tightly.

She lowered her body and took a step, gliding silently towards the lake like a nimble raccoon.

One hundred meters.

Fifty meters.

ten meters.

As they drew closer, the stench of blood in the air grew stronger, as if warning all creatures that approached.

Su Ruoruo finally arrived at the lakeside, and the spot she chose was a protruding rock.

This place is closest to the jungle, so if anything goes wrong, she can retreat in the shortest amount of time.

She knelt on the rock and slowly lowered the kettle into the cool lake water.

The cameras in the global live stream gave an extreme close-up at that moment, and all the viewers held their breath.

The edge of the kettle finally touched the cold lake surface.

Glug, glug.

Clear lake water began to flow into the kettle, making a soft sound.

Just as the kettle was about to be filled.

Whoosh!

The water surface less than five meters in front of Su Ruoruo suddenly exploded without warning.

A huge and ferocious head rose from the water, sending up a spray of water everywhere.

Thick, black scales covered in barbs; a pair of murky, cruel vertical pupils gleaming with a bloodthirsty light in the moonlight; and clearly visible, interlocking fangs in its gaping maw.

Class D ferocious beast, Black Armored Crocodile.

It appeared.

The terrifying sense of oppression almost froze the air.

The live stream room in China was instantly flooded with countless terrified comments.

"Holy crap! It's here!"

"Ruoruo, run!"

The black-armored crocodile gave her no time to react; its massive body lunged at the rock where Su Ruoruo was.

At the critical moment, Su Ruoruo did not back down, but instead did something that shocked everyone.

She swiftly pulled back the water jug ​​filled with water with her left hand, while simultaneously thrusting her gleaming sword forward with her right.

It wasn't a chop, but a stab.

The target was the soft throat inside the gaping maw of the black-armored crocodile.
