113: Chapter 113 Me, the Mouse! I Have a Name Now~
Even though he was threatened by his wife, Old Crocodile felt refreshed deep down.
Before, his wife refused to believe him no matter what, but now she believed him, right?
Having his recommendation recognized by his wife gave Old Crocodile a great sense of accomplishment.
As for An Ke, he watched the crocodile couple return to the bottom of the lake, his heart filled with emotion.
The two of them could be considered oddballs among fierce beasts.
Had it been any other fierce beasts, he feared he would have already been in danger.
grilled fish?
Where would a fierce beast ever listen to reason?
In the time that followed, Little Scar and the others became Old Crocodiles Wife's barbecue masters.
However, Little Scar and the others didn't work for free.
For every three fish grilled, two belonged to Little Scar and the others.
Old Crocodiles Wife was very reasonable, which made Little Scar and the others happy to feed her grilled fish.
Having eaten and drunk his fill, Old Crocodile sat to the side and started chatting with An Ke.
This chatterbox of a crocodile seemed to have an endless supply of topics.
Often, An Ke didn't even need to speak; Old Crocodile could ramble on and on by himself.
If Old Crocodile weren't a crocodile, An Ke felt he would probably have started discussing national affairs with him.
And then he would even offer some commentary.
However, An Ke did obtain quite a bit of information from him.
This included the existence of elephants nearly ten meters tall, as well as various other massive fierce beasts.
An Ke's scalp tingled as he listened.
The confidence he had felt earlier vanished in an instant.
So it turned out this island was that dangerous?
Many giant beasts were hidden within it.
An Ke secretly warned himself that he couldn't be as lax as before.
If he were to encounter a massive fierce beast, he would be in big trouble.
Soon, night fell once again.
An Ke had already lain down on his bed.
And Little Scar had already fallen asleep; the monkeys needed to take turns standing guard.
To prevent wild animals from attacking the Camp.
Although they hadn't encountered a Beast Attack for several nights, it was always better to be safe than sorry with such things.
Once a sudden attack occurred, if they were unprepared, even having the crocodiles there would be useless.
After all, the two giant crocodiles had returned to the bottom of the lake, and it would take some time for them to provide support.
On the bed, An Ke rested his head on his arms, letting his thoughts wander.
If no emergencies occurred along the way, it wouldn't take long to reach the northernmost tip of the island by water under the crocodiles' guidance.
An Ke believed that by then, his exploration progress would definitely break through 1%.
Perhaps he could even reach 1% exploration progress on the way.
He wondered what the mysterious reward would be?
An Ke subconsciously licked his lips, full of anticipation.
Judging by the previous rewards, the mysterious reward wouldn't be bad.
If he could also happen to find a hidden reward along the way, he would strike it rich.
Unfortunately, up until now, there hadn't been a single clue about the hidden reward.
Not even the foreign National Destiny Bearers had found anything.
The reason he could be certain was that An Ke believed that if anyone found a hidden reward...
There would definitely be a global announcement, and even the National Destiny Bearers would know.
The night grew deeper.
Here, unlike back at the Camp, there were no animal cries at night.
Only the occasional chirping of insects.
"It suddenly feels a bit quiet!"
An Ke murmured to himself.
At the Camp, there were tigers, leopards, the Dairy Cow, King Kong... there were even the Bees that never stopped buzzing.
So it was never truly quiet.
Yet now, it was eerily quiet here.
But just then, a rustling sound came from beside the bed.
An Ke looked over and saw the Hamster sitting to the side, constantly stuffing things into its mouth.
In the evening, the Hamster had gone out and brought back many more nuts.
The pile of nuts now beside the bed was all the Hamster's spoils of war.
The Little Mouse grabbed one with its short little hands and gnawed on it incessantly.
Watching it use every trick in the book and put in all its effort.
An Ke couldn't help but find it funny; at least tonight wouldn't be quiet either.
Looking at the fluffy Little Hamster, An Ke couldn't resist reaching out to rub its head.
However, the Little Hamster turned a deaf ear and continued to gnaw on the nut seriously.
With a "pop" sound of cracking, the nut was opened by the Hamster, and the meat inside rolled onto the bed.
The Hamster hurriedly picked up the nut meat and then smiled, "Master, here's some for you~"
An Ke shook his head, "I'm not eating it, you eat it yourself."
Speaking of which, he suddenly realized he hadn't given the Little Hamster a name yet.
So, An Ke smiled at the Hamster and said, "Little Mouse, do you want Master to give you a name?"
The Hamster, eating its nut, nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, "Okay, okay!"
"This Little Mouse is really looking forward to the name Master gives me."
Meanwhile, in the live broadcast room outside, the audience immediately became active upon seeing this scene.
"Oh-ho! Boss An is about to display his weakness again."
"LMAO, Boss An's only flaw is probably naming things!"
"Little Scar, King Kong, Xiao Bao... Hahaha!"
"What name do you guys think the Hamster will get?"
"Xiao Cang?"
"Teacher Cang (funny~)!"
"I can't take it anymore, the person above me, you're really something."
"Don't say it, don't say it, it really is possible!"
"LMAO, look at the Little Hamster's expectant expression now, won't it be crying later?"
"Poor little guy, it hasn't sensed the crisis at all..."
"..."
An Ke was unaware of the bullet comments outside; he seriously started thinking about a name for the Hamster.
While racking his brains, he caught a glimpse of the three small tufts of yellow fur on top of the Hamster's head.
A flash of inspiration immediately struck him.
"I've got it!"
Hearing this, the Hamster widened its eyes, looking expectant, "Master, what did you think of?"
An Ke said proudly, "How about calling you Three Hairs?"
The Little Hamster's expectant expression instantly froze.
It looked dazed.
Three Hairs? What kind of ghost of a name is that?
It sounds so bad!
The Hamster began to make "squeak squeak squeak" sounds to express its protest.
However, An Ke ignored it.
Naming is so hard; being able to think of a vivid and descriptive name was already quite good.
It did have three tufts of yellow fur on its head, after all.
The Hamster had been happily eating nuts, but now it didn't feel happy anymore.
It lowered its head, deeply regretting agreeing to let An Ke name it.
If it had known, Little Mouse would have been fine.
At least it was more normal than Three Hairs...
The Hamster lowered its head, only able to silently accept this outcome.
In the live broadcast room, the audience burst into laughter upon seeing this.
"Boss An is still performing consistently!"
"Three Hairs... I can't take it, ahahaha!"
"I actually think it's quite good; after all, I thought Boss An would name it Yellow Hair."
"LMAO, Ghost Fire Little Mouse, requesting to join the battle?"
"Little Hamster: Most mice grow up overnight after experiencing a certain event."
"This little guy didn't cry; it's already considered strong."
"..."
And just as the audience in the live broadcast room was being amused by the name "Three Hairs"...
A familiar voice came through the broadcast.
Many viewers were surprised, curious about who it could be.
"A loud crash from the sky, and I make my grand entrance!"
