411: Chapter 455 Oman Awakens!

An Ke went to wash up, while the [National Fortune Game] announcements continued.

After the third-place Sun Never Sets, the next one still wasn't Kimchi Country, but rather the dark horse Argentina.

Previously, Argentina had almost no presence, so it was a surprise that they made such a splash this time.

Although they hadn't obtained any high-level [cores], they had a stroke of great luck.

They obtained many [hot weapon cores], and even included two [black technology cores].

This made the Argentine players' overall combat power quite formidable.

Furthermore, the animals in last night's Beast Attack weren't particularly fierce, so their Camp's integrity was very high.

Next were the established powers like Lighthouse and Furry Bear.

As for Ah San and the Philippines, their ranking was dead last.

Because they were in a two-nation alliance, just like An Ke and Kata, the Beast Attack they faced was also exceptionally fierce.

Over a dozen Dunkleosteus!

These former overlords of the seabed were incredibly fierce, and like the [Speedy Snow Rabbit], they had extremely high attribute bonuses and special abilities, making them a hundred times more ferocious than normal.

Since Shalu and Jimny had used up all their hot weapons while hunting Three Hairs,

the Toad Offspring were no match for the Dunkleosteus in the water, and as for the fire-attribute [cores], they were completely countered by the water.

Ultimately, Shalu and Jimny had no choice but to flee with their tails between their legs.

When other players fled, no matter how much their Camp was destroyed, there was at least a single-digit percentage of integrity left.

However, Shalu and Jimny's Camp was on a Giant Water Lily, and under the repeated attacks of the Dunkleosteus, it finally sank to the bottom of the water.

This resulted in their Camp's destruction reaching 100%.

Unprecedented and never to be repeated!

"Damn it..."

Shalu gnashed his teeth, feeling nothing but humiliation.

Beside him, Jimny smiled and said, "Lord Shalu, there's no need to be angry.

This time it was just bad luck; neither your abilities nor those of your offspring could be utilized."

"Wait until the next Beast Attack, when your abilities can be put to use and the number of Prehistoric Giant Bear offspring is large enough, we will surely take the crown!"

Shalu chuckled softly.

He also felt that it was just bad luck this time.

Although the Prehistoric Giant Bear offspring were born, they were simply no match for the Dunkleosteus underwater.

Even with their physical advantage, it was the same, and the fire ability was useless in the water anyway.

"This time we will set up our Camp on land. That way, during the next Beast Attack, we can exert our maximum advantage and take first place."

Shalu grinned.

Led by the Prehistoric Giant Bear offspring, they began to choose a new Camp.

Behind him, Jimny was brainstorming.

He really hadn't expected that Dragon Country's An Ke could achieve 100% Camp integrity.

He completely ignored the mention of graffiti in the announcement.

What kind of damage was that?

It was most likely that the [National Fortune Game] didn't want to give 100% integrity, so it just found a random excuse.

An Ke's combat power is even stronger than imagined...

Jimny felt a bit of lingering fear.

Fortunately, after seeing that Parrot appear back then, they had left decisively.

Otherwise, they might have been taken out by An Ke at that time...

Jimny couldn't understand; everyone was in the [National Fortune Game], so how could An Ke be so special?

Were they even playing the same game?

With his thoughts racing, Jimny considered one thing.

With his current strength, it would be difficult to kill Shalu, and once more giant bear offspring were born, it would be even harder.

Should he find an opportunity to meet with An Ke and use selling out Shalu's location as leverage to gain benefits?

Jimny was a bit hesitant.

After all, the fifty consecutive [Death Announcements] from Wa Country still rang in his ears.

Though An Ke was young, he was a god of death through and through.

The danger of meeting him was too great...

Jimny felt he needed to plan more thoroughly.

...

The announcements came to an end, and as before, the top ten could all receive rewards.

Over at the Bamboo Village, An Ke had finished washing up and eaten the breakfast brought over by Xiao Mei.

Actually, he could take food out from his [Portable Space].

But Xiao Mei didn't care about that; she insisted on bringing An Ke breakfast every morning.

An Ke simply accepted it.

After breakfast, An Ke went to another Bamboo Village, intending to see if Aman had woken up.

Currently, An Ke and the animals rested in separate Bamboo Villages.

However, every night some animals would come to sleep with him.

For example, Three Hairs, Jingang, Hua Hua, Golden Snub-nosed Monkey, Little Scar, and so on.

Just as he arrived at the Bamboo Village where Aman was, he heard Three Hairs shouting.

"Aman! Push! Push harder!!"

"Yes! Just like that!"

An Ke's forehead was full of question marks. What was Three Hairs doing?

How did it feel like...

Upon stepping into the inner room and seeing clearly, An Ke realized.

It turned out Aman was molting.

When Three Hairs said to push harder, he meant for Aman to use some strength to shed his skin.

Nearby, Jingang was limping and gesticulating at Aman, "Aman, This Muscle Man is very experienced, you should do it like this."

"Then do it like this, and finally like that."

Beside them, Tiger Mom, Leopard Mom, and the other animals looked on wordlessly.

Beside An Ke, Xiao Mei looked completely bewildered.

She couldn't help but lean in and ask, "Chief, do birds molt too?"

Otherwise, how could Jingang say he was very experienced?

An Ke shook his head helplessly, "How many words from this Flirty Bird's mouth do you think can be believed?"

Aman couldn't stand Jingang's gesticulating anymore.

He cursed at it, "Flirty Bird, stop shouting, will you?"

"Do it like this, then like that—you're talking nonsense, aren't you?"

After cursing, Aman saw An Ke out of the corner of his eye and was immediately overjoyed:

"Boss!!"

Ignoring the fact that he was still molting, he immediately slithered toward An Ke, flicking his tongue.

"I missed you to death. While hibernating, I dreamed of you."

"In the dream, you turned into a snake just like me..."

An Ke raised an eyebrow, "And then I was eaten by you?"

Aman was stunned, then cried out:

"Boss, how would I ever dare! I wouldn't want to eat you either."

An Ke laughed, "It seems you don't feel cold anymore, Aman, you're quite energetic."

Aman's eyes immediately lit up, and he said, "Boss, speaking of that, I find it quite miraculous."

"I originally thought the cold winter had passed and was lamenting how fast time passed.

I didn't expect to see that it's still snowing outside, yet it's very warm inside the house."

At this point, Old Crocodile and Sister-in-law Crocodile nearby also got excited.

Crocodiles were also animals that needed to hibernate.

But now they didn't need to; they could get warmth inside the house.

"Little friend, I, Old Crocodile, am also very confused. There's no fire nearby, so why is it so warm in the house?"

"It's too warm; This mother doesn't even want to go out anymore."

"I, Hua Hua, also just want to lie in the house." Hua Hua lay on the ground, saying lazily.

"This is the underfloor heating system I mentioned to you before," An Ke explained with a smile.

At the same time, he explained the principle of the underfloor heating system to the animals.

The animals didn't quite understand but were impressed.

Behind him, Xiao Mei's eyes sparkled, and her admiration for An Ke grew even more.

The Chief knows so much!
