It Was Even Tougher to Approach Monsters

Pan Liang occupied the carriage. No matter how Shirley tried to call and shake him, he would not wake up.

Shirley was ultimately left with no choice, so she set up a small tent beside the carriage. Then, she went into the tent and wrapped herself in a sleeping bag.

Pan Liang stuck his head out and felt speechless. They were in the wild, yet Shirley was sleeping that way.

He had long learned some basic information about this world from the system.

Monsters would appear from time to time in the wild. If there were really monsters attacking her, she would have a hard time getting out of her sleeping bag in less than a minute.

Pan Liang found that Shirley had been snoring softly within thirty seconds of getting into her sleeping bag, which made him extremely envious.

This afternoon was the most comfortable sleep he had had in recent years.

He did not have to worry that his leader would call him to wake him up and change his needs. He could sleep as much as he wanted without having to worry about being late for work.

Having slept for half a day, he was not sleepy at all.

Although he did not fall asleep, he could still see his experience gradually increasing in the Experience Bar.

"It turns out that I don't have to fall asleep to gain Experience Points. I might as well just lie down and pretend to be injured."

Pan Liang, who initially wanted to continue sleeping, sat up. His body was slightly sore as a result of lying down all day.

He stretched his arms and legs to exercise his sore body.

Just as he sat up, he noticed some movement in the bushes next to him. Something was approaching the carriage.

"Why isn't there any movement from this little witch? Her survival awareness in the wild is too poor."

Actually, it was not entirely Shirley's fault. She had never been so tired, which was why she did not notice the movement around her.

"It looks like I have to protect her today. Let me go and find out what kind of monster it is."

Pan Liang crept away silently. He immediately disappeared from the carriage and appeared in the bushes next to him.

"Hey, what are these? Why do they look like slimes from an anime?"

The group of small monsters that Pan Liang saw was none other than slimes. More than a dozen slimes were making their way to the carriage at first. Nevertheless, when they saw Pan Liang, they immediately rushed toward him.

Some of them bounced on the ground, while some of them were pupae on the ground.

"Aww, these slimes look really cute. No wonder some anime use them as the main character."

Looking at the slimes in front of him, Pan Liang did not even have the intention to make a move.

However, slimes were not something nice. Although their attack power was not strong, they were still monsters, after all. They would not hesitate to attack when they saw a human.

"It's too bad that you met me. I'm going to give you a quick death."

A bright sword light flashed. The dozens of slimes in front of him were instantly cut in half and fell to the ground.

After dealing with these slimes, the system notification appeared in Pan Liang's mind.

[Ding! The host has killed 13 monsters. The daily mission has been completed. The host will be rewarded with five days of cultivation.]

Pan Liang had long forgotten about this mission. It was only when he received the system notification that he remembered.

"Hmm, not bad. I actually completed the mission. I shall go back to sleep."

Just as he was about to go back to sleep, he heard someone asking for help from the direction where the slimes had come from.

Unable to resist his curiosity, he rushed in that direction to see what was going on.

He also wanted to make sure that what was happening there would not affect the safety of the carriage.

After approaching that spot, Pan Liang hid in the tree and looked at the group of monsters below.

There was a girl next to the group of monsters.

The delicate, anxious-looking girl was tied to a tree. 

The group of monsters was eating their prey.

On closer inspection, Pan Liang found that they were the type of monster with a wolf's head and a human's body. They were much uglier than the werewolves in the movies.

"Brothers, hurry up and finish that. Then, let's try the chick over here."

The one who spoke looked like the leader of this group of werewolves. A subordinate asked the leader, "Why can't we enjoy ourselves first? I want to try this chick first."

"Are you trying to rebel? Do whatever I say. Hurry up and eat."

"Only when you're full will you have the strength. Otherwise, if the chick looks down on you later, all of us will lose our werewolf dignity."

The little werewolf muttered, "Do you think everyone is like you? You can't even last three seconds."

However, he only muttered those words with a laugh. He did not dare to let his leader hear it.

Pan Liang could not help but click his tongue in wonder when he heard these monsters speak. "These monsters seem to have very high intelligence. They can actually speak human language.

"I just don't know how strong they are."

Then, Pan Liang turned his head to look at the girl next to him.

This girl was wearing ragged coarse clothes, and she looked like a peasant girl. He did not know why she would appear here in the middle of the night.

However, he did not think too much about it. Now that he met her, he would definitely save her. Having said that, he had to think about how to save her.

This place was not too far from the carriage. If the girl whom he saved found him later, he would be in trouble.

"Hmm, I have to think of a way to hide my body and face. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome if she recognizes me.

"I shall approach these werewolves first before thinking of a way to kill them."

After getting closer to them, Pan Liang realized that these werewolves were eating slimes as if those slimes were jelly.

"I wonder how slimes taste like. If I chop them off and stir them, they should taste pretty good."

"Um, this angle isn't good. I can't kill all the werewolves in one move. I have to change the angle."

After changing his position, Pan Liang realized that it still would not work. "Ah, it's so hard. It turns out that it's so hard to act cool like how others usually do in the movies."

"Forget it, I'll take this position. As long as I don't hurt that girl, I'll do it. I don't care if it's going to be noisy."

Just as Pan Liang was about to make his move, the werewolves had already finished eating their food and started to extend their claws to the peasant girl next to them.

When the girl saw the werewolves heading toward her, she immediately shouted for help.

The shout scared Pan Liang to death. If he woke Shirley up, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He could not hesitate any longer, so he attacked the werewolves directly. The next moment, a sword light appeared and a choking sound sounded.

All the werewolves fell to the ground, yet not even a wound could be seen on their bodies. From this situation, one could tell how fast the sword acted.

Pan Liang threw out a sword light from afar, and it accurately cut off the rope on the peasant girl's body. Subsequently, he disappeared into the forest.

However, the peasant girl saw his back and the direction he had headed to.
