Chapter 285: The Diversity of Species
In a small ditch overgrown with light green water grass, Li Muyang opened his eyes and found himself hiding in this familiar spot once again.
From the water’s surface above came the articulate sounds of school children reciting books.
The crisp and pleasant voices of the children startled Li Muyang for a moment.
"...Back again?"
Why do I end up in the familiar place every time I log on?
Could this place be a resurrection point?
He clearly remembered that when he logged off, he had already left this place far behind.
Li Muyang swam out of the small ditch along the direction of the current, merged into the outside river, and then returned by the way he had come, entering the turbulent river outside the city.
Most of the bigger fish and shrimp nearby had been eaten by him, so Li Muyang, with his two-meter-long body, swam downstream to carve out a new battlefield.
A two-meter-long Flood Dragon was already a dominant force in the river, but there were still some creatures in the deep river that were no smaller in size than he was.
Li Muyang attacked these equally large fish and shrimp; his ability to control water and the potent toxins ensured his unstoppable success.
Almost every time he found a hunting target, he could hunt it down successfully.
But even so, Li Muyang remained cautious and careful.
Because he had discovered something, after entering Act Two, the game surprisingly had no save function.
No saving and loading... had it become real-time calculation?
Li Muyang speculated on the game’s essence, carefully selecting his hunting targets and trying not to provoke those overly powerful beings.
Even in this river, it could be regarded as a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers lurked; aside from the large fish, shrimp, and old turtles, there were also some strange and unusual things.
There was a creature covered in green fur that swam in the water like a monkey, exuding a chill and ominous aura.
The moment Li Muyang discovered this creature, the Hunting Map suddenly unlocked a new monster.
A blue card face, and the name in the system’s glossary was "Water Monkey."
Even though it was not large in size, it did not dare Li Muyang to provoke it lightly.
There was also something with long hair trailing in the water, with a human-like head, similar to the flying head savage of legends.
But that human face was a disguise, its real feeding apparatus was located behind its head.@@@@
It was also a blue card face, and the name in the system’s glossary was "Gui Fish."
The hideous Flood Dragon, dragging its long hair like a flying head fiend, was suddenly attacked and let out a piercing howl underwater.
It thrashed its head madly, its thin strands of hair stabbing towards Li Muyang.
But Li Muyang’s strike was precise, and he wasn’t one to linger in battle.
The moment the venom was fully injected, he immediately maneuvered his body and, with the help of the water flow, escaped from the area, not giving the Flood Dragon a chance to stab him with its hair.
In the blink of an eye, Li Muyang had retreated to a distance of over ten meters.
In the turbulent flow of the water, he looked back at the grotesque Flood Dragon.
It was howling miserably as it chased after him, seemingly determined to fight him to the death.
-- This monster has quite the temper!
Li Muyang swam nimbly through the water, watching the Flood Dragon’s mad pursuit.
However, during the chase, the movements of the Flood Dragon became stiffer and its swimming speed slower and slower.
Two minutes later, the Flood Dragon with the long hair lay motionless in the water and began to float upwards due to the buoyancy.
Li Muyang observed cautiously for a while, experimenting with water currents several times, and only after confirming that the creature was indeed dead, did he approach the Flood Dragon’s side.
He discovered that although the bizarre creature had a head of long black hair, the flesh beneath it was pure white and translucent, emitting an enticing fragrance.
Li Muyang bit down and began to feed.

The system notifications that popped up in his field of vision surprised Li Muyang.
"This thing is so nutritious!"
The Experience Points gained from killing one Flood Dragon were more than killing ten fish or shrimp of the same size.
No wonder it was a blue-card monster in the Hunting Map.
Realizing how rich the Experience Points were that this creature granted, Li Muyang’s eyes suddenly changed when he looked again at the river teeming with all manner of strange creatures.
Although those weird things were abstract, the Experience Points were plentiful!
Quickly chewing through the Flood Dragon in the water, Li Muyang moved his body away from the place and started looking for the next hunting target.
