Jack was a down-on-his-luck writer, recruited this time to pen some documents.
Since the journey to King Kong Island involved high-risk work, no peers were willing to snatch this opportunity from him.
Thus, Jack was hastily yet fortunately accepted.
Now, a giant leech was riding on his face, and Jack was filled with regret; if he had known he would be splattered like this, he wouldn't have come even for an extra million U.S. dollars.
The leech's sharp mouthparts were as terrifying as pliers, but because Jack's hair was long, the leech could only feed on his hair.
Bang, bang, bang…
A sailor picked up a discarded assault rifle and shot at the leech on Jack's face.
The leech was knocked off, and this sailor saved Jack.
He was a young man, appearing to be around eighteen years old.
However, before Jack could even thank him, the sailor's expression froze.
A giant pincer, extending from the rock wall, seized this kind and brave sailor.
The young sailor, named Jimmy, frantically cried out to Jack for help, but Jack could do absolutely nothing.
Jimmy had already been snapped in half by the pincer.
Jack was on the verge of going insane.
From the rock wall emerged a giant insect resembling a spider but with a pair of extremely long pincers, followed by many smaller spider scorpions.
Boom!
A fragmentation grenade exploded, pulverizing these smaller spider scorpions.
Karl, using a camera tripod as a weapon, quickly pulled the dazed Jack back onto the rock.
"Are you trying to get yourself killed?"
"Karl, they're afraid of light sources, quickly get a light source!"
Jack sobered up.
When the fragmentation grenade exploded earlier, it produced a strong light, and the spider scorpion that was about to grab him actually retreated!
On the ground with ample light, the explosion flash of a fragmentation grenade was not particularly dazzling, but in a dark cliff canyon, it was a different story altogether.
A mercenary pulled an incendiary grenade from his back waist pack, broke it open, and threw it out.
The leeches, small spider scorpions, and toothed earthworms all hid, moving away from the light source.
This prompted many mercenaries to follow suit.
This might be their only chance to escape; otherwise, facing the Zerg from above and below, they would all suffer mental breakdowns and then be buried in a sunless, hellish place.
Now, to the other side.
Anne was an actress invited by Karl and Jack, who originally had an enviable job on Broadway, but circumstances always change.
Broadway was already a territory overrun by various monsters.
Amidst the beast tide, Anne was quite intelligent and even more fortunate.
She found a large and sturdy hollow tree stump.
Although it looked like it could collapse at any moment under the beast tide, it was actually sturdier than it appeared.
Anne listened to the roaring of the beast tide fading into the distance, and the feeling of surviving a catastrophe made her secretly delighted, but then she suddenly felt her neck itch?
A large centipede with a bright red shell and long antennae hung above Anne's head.
This large centipede used its long antennae to touch Anne's smooth skin.
Anne now understood that she wasn't the only one who had fortunately found this lucky hollow tree stump; there were other guests as well.
Suppressing the fear in her heart, Anne wanted to back out, but then another large centipede crawled onto her shoulder.
At this point, Anne could no longer remain calm.
She flung that large centipede away with her hand, then crawled out of the hollow tree stump.
However, one wave had not settled before another rose.
Not far from the stump, a six-meter-tall Tyrannosaurus Rex was feasting on the corpses of the beast horde, following the scent of blood.
But from the Tyrannosaurus Rex's perspective, it preferred to eat live things, even though Anne seemed far too small to even get stuck in its teeth.
Anne was so scared that her legs went weak, and she fell to the ground.
"Oh God, if this is a dream, please let me wake up."
Anne clasped her hands together and prayed to the sky, but then she quickly scrambled up and immediately ran in any direction.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex was very displeased with its food escaping, chasing closely behind Anne.
The breath exhaled from its huge jaws, covered in shredded meat, made Anne dare not make any mistakes.
However, at this moment, an even larger Raptorex appeared.
The Raptorex had a slightly weaker bite force than the Tyrannosaurus Rex, but it possessed a pair of powerful claws, which countered the Tyrannosaurus Rex's dominant bite force.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex was struck by the Raptorex's claws, and at the same time, the Raptorex bit its hind neck.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex had no powerful claws to counterattack and struggled against the Raptorex's claws.
Infuriated by the attack, the Tyrannosaurus Rex swung its tail at the Raptorex's leg.
The Raptorex, feeling the pain, loosened its bite and retreated.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex seized the opportunity to bite the Raptorex's side neck.
Anne had already taken the chance to escape, only to immediately run back again, because thousands of Velociraptors were advancing powerfully.
Among all dinosaurs, the Velociraptor's intelligence can be said to be among the highest, if they were to form a civilization, Velociraptors would have the highest chance of becoming rulers.
The Raptorex and the Tyrannosaurus Rex tacitly ceased their struggle.
In the Velociraptor pack, which had expanded to over five thousand individuals, Lin Fan was carried by a Velociraptor King, with Four Velociraptors Kings guarding him on all sides.
On average, one Velociraptor King appears among every 1000 Velociraptors, and now Lin Fan had almost recruited all the Velociraptors here under his command.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex roared, exceptionally powerful, but in front of thousands of Velociraptors, this dominance was completely ineffective.
The Raptorex let out an inquiring hiss; it was a hybrid variant belonging to the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Velociraptor.
Velociraptors, by preying on Tyrannosaurus Rex, had a chance to produce Velociraptors with Tyrannosaurus Rex bloodlines during reproduction, and these Velociraptors were the Raptorex.
Because Velociraptors placed extreme importance on bloodline, the Raptorex was not accepted by the Velociraptors.
Once independent, it would be expelled to territories outside the pack to live.
The Velociraptor King carried Lin Fan to the front, letting out an extremely high-pitched roar, warning the Raptorex to submit, or it would face being hunted down by the entire pack.
No matter how powerful the Raptorex was, at most it could only take down six Velociraptors; facing so many Velociraptors, it had no chance of winning at all.
Under the astonished gaze of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the Raptorex lay on the ground, its claws touching the earth, its tail raised high, and it let out a hiss, indicating its submission to Lin Fan.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex roared again.
As the undisputed overlord among dinosaurs, how could it possibly submit like this? It was too humiliating.
