After finishing his meal, Li Mo picked up another piece of bread.
After finishing all the bread and drinking two cartons of milk, Li Mo, now full, began to think about his next move.
He now knows who wants him dead, but whether that person is the assassin still needs further confirmation.
But now that he's stranded abroad, it will take him some time to find his way back.
Moreover, the sun had already set, making it more difficult for him to find his way back.
However, it's not without its advantages. At least now that Li Mo is in the shadows, many things are easier to do.
It all depends on how he completes the task; he's still really looking forward to the system repository.
After finishing his meal, Li Mo had almost recovered his strength. He stood up, put away his half-dry clothes, and used one of them as a bundle to pack up the remaining supplies.
Having determined the direction, they headed towards the villa.
As darkness fell, Li Mo, not wanting to expose himself, did not look for any lighting tools.
Fortunately, the moonlight was good tonight, very bright, so that Li Mo could see what was ahead. Even so, Li Mo's journey was still quite difficult.
This is a deserted island with only a few players. They have hardly ever left the island, so they have to find and explore the mountain paths on their own.
Li Mo only remembered the approximate location of the villa; from where he was now, he couldn't see any trace of it.
Suddenly, Li Mo stopped. He seemed to hear some other sounds coming from inside the woods.
The forest at night is somewhat eerie, surrounded by tall trees that sway in the wind like dark, ghostly shadows, and you never know what dangers might lurk behind them.
Li Mo looked around and found a tall, lush tree. He rubbed his hands together and climbed up in a few quick movements.
Not long after Li Mo climbed the tree, he saw a dark figure rapidly approaching him from a distance.
He immediately slowed his breathing and stared intently at the black shadow.
The black shadow looked to be only the height of a teenager, and its shape was similar, but it moved at an incredible speed, a speed that no human could possibly achieve.
Moreover, Li Mo was a teenager; he didn't know what it was.
Could it be a monkey or ape from the forest?
Soon, the dark figure arrived at the tree where Li Mo was standing, pacing back and forth as if searching for something.
Li Mo stared at the dark figure under the tree in the moonlight, his mouth agape in surprise. At the same time, his heart pounded and a look of horror flashed in his eyes.
Is this thing supposed to exist here?
Li Mo didn't know how to describe this thing. It looked a lot like a human, except that its skin looked completely melted, and it kept oozing a sticky liquid.
It has no hair on its head, and two huge eyeballs in the eye area that keep moving back and forth.
The mouth is indeed split vertically, but there is no nose or ears.
However, there were many suction cup-like things at the top of his scalp. Li Mo counted them and there were as many as six.
And it looks like it's breathing through its nose, opening and closing.
What is this?
Li Mo had never seen anything like it before, and it didn't look very friendly. It made him feel fear and danger, and he wanted to run away and get as far away as possible.

The monster looked around and paced back and forth in the woods under the tree.
It just wouldn't leave, and then suddenly the suction cups on its head started to grow bigger and then bloomed.
At the same time, a sweet aroma wafted out, along with a rustling sound, which came from the suction cup. Li Mo could see it clearly.
He suppressed the goosebumps that spurted on his skin, calmed himself, and quietly tried to see what this monster was up to.
A short while later, the rustling sound of something moving came from afar again.
Li Mo was terrified when he saw several more monsters, identical to those standing under the trees, leap out of the woods in the distance. Was there more than one of these monsters?!
When did such a monster appear around them? Do Feifei and the others know about De'e?
Li Mo began to recall what had happened in the past two days, guessing that Fei Fei and the others might know.
Because they never left the villa after dark, and he had previously mentioned to others that if they left the villa, they wouldn't have to worry about being killed by assassins.
Unfortunately, no one responded or did anything, which he found strange at the time.
This is such a simple, one-time solution, so why doesn't anyone do it? Now he probably knows why.
Is it because of the monsters in the forest?
None of Feifei and the others had told him, and Li Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He also understood why the assassin wasn't worried about surviving the fall into the sea and returning to seek revenge. It turned out that it would be difficult for him to return. Even if he survived the fall, he would encounter these monsters on his way back to the villa.
As Li Mo pondered these things, more and more monsters gathered under the tree.
At a glance, there were already more than a dozen of them; it seemed that the monster from before was summoning its kind.
But what are they looking for, and how did they end up here?
Oh no! They're here for him; are they trying to trap him here?!
Just as Li Mo was filled with fear, he saw the monsters searching around under the tree all raise their heads and look at Li Mo in the tree. A bead of sweat dripped down his back, and he nervously swallowed.
So, the first monster that came earlier wasn't looking for him, but already knew he was in the tree.

And pretend not to notice to lull him into a false sense of security?
Then they called all his classmates over and surrounded him?!
Is this monster really that smart? Its IQ is so high! How is it going to escape today?!
Li Mo had a bad feeling; it seemed he was in danger.
It would be better to be killed by the assassin. At least Li Mo could have struggled. He had no idea what kind of combat power the monsters in front of him were, and with so many of them, could he handle them all by himself?
0
Besides happy Ge's big knife, Li Mo currently has a bottle of antidote, two bottles of mineral water, and a carton of milk.
What should we do? How can we resolve this crisis?
The monsters under the tree all looked up at Li Mo in the book.
Li Mo noticed that their pupils were also vertical, and they would occasionally dilate and contract.
It seemed to be sizing up Li Mo. He couldn't just sit and wait to die. When these monsters made their move, that would be his time. He had to strike first; there might still be a glimmer of hope. He couldn't die here.

To die silently at the hands of these monsters would be far too humiliating.
Moreover, Li Mo had a strong feeling that he couldn't die here.
There must be a way, Li Mo thought, trying to ignore the monster under the tree.
He looked up and surveyed his surroundings, trying to find another way out of his predicament.
Just as Li Mo was searching for a way to get through the crisis, something else happened in the survival game.
……
The Russian Bear Country, Chief Office.
"Dong dong dong."
"Come in!"
The Russian leader, Purdue, looked up at the doorway.
His assistant walked in with a look of surprise and excitement, and then loudly reported: "Chief, our challenger has conquered the third level, just now."
Upon hearing this, Pudujin stood up in surprise and asked, "What did you say? Really? You just said you've already conquered the third level of the Trial Tower?! Hahaha, that's great!"
Purdue was thrilled; he had just left the live stream to deal with the backlog of documents from the past few days.
He never expected to hear such news. He had been longing for the resources of the third level for a long time, but he could only watch helplessly as other countries made breakthroughs one by one.
The first was the Great Xia Kingdom, then the Beautiful Kingdom and the British Empire, and now it's finally the turn of the Russian Bear Kingdom.
Pudukin put down what he was holding and walked outside, giving instructions to his assistant as he went.
"Go and call everyone else over. We need to figure out how to make good use of the resources on the third level of the Trial Tower."
After the assistant responded, he left, glancing at Purdue University with a hesitant look before departing.
Shouldn't the challengers be encouraged to continue their efforts to find the key to the ultimate trial tower? Isn't that what other countries that conquer the third level, like the United States and the United Kingdom, do?
Why did they develop the three-tiered resources first?!
However, the assistant didn't say this out loud. He was just an assistant; how could he care about so much? Besides, it wasn't his job, and these were things he couldn't possibly worry about.
The assistant quickly gathered everyone together and they entered the conference room where the live broadcast was being streamed.
Pudujin was already sitting there happily, watching the comments in the live stream. Unfortunately, there weren't many good comments, but the chief was watching with great interest.
"What? How is that possible? There must be a conspiracy. The Russian bear country has also conquered the third level? This is a rumor!"
"Hahaha, the Russian bear country also conquered the third level? That's a lie, isn't it? Are they so desperate to catch up that they've started spreading rumors?!"
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, how could this be? I won't listen!!"
"Haha, those guys up ahead are from America, right? We see that even Russia has entered the third level, and we can't stand it anymore? So this Trial Tower was opened by you Americans? Why are you so concerned about it! Our Great Xia Kingdom is much more generous. Congratulations to Russia!"
"Yes, yes, brother upstairs, I think your analysis makes a lot of sense! Congratulations to Russia on its 5.7! I'm happy as long as America is unhappy, hahaha! I don't know why!"
Various kinds of comments started flooding the screen again, and it was clear that those posting negative words and various curses were mostly from American netizens.
The people who were angry at America were the citizens of the Great Xia Kingdom. They even started spamming "Congratulations to the Bear Country" in the live chat to make America unhappy.

Although few people offered genuine blessings, Pudu Jin was still very happy to see such congratulatory comments in the live chat.
I'm in a rare good mood, and I find the netizens from the Great Xia Kingdom quite adorable.
Unlike before, I wasn't both angry and jealous.
The leaders who came with their assistants took their places. Purdue cleared his throat and then started the meeting to discuss how to utilize the resources of the third layer.
