"Of course."

"Hmph." With a cold snort, Sky Shadow's face momentarily revealed a fleeting smile. The Feng Yi of this dimension differed from the Feng Yi he knew, for instance in ambition, but there were similarities too. However, at most, it was just youthful impulsiveness. He was too young, too immature, overly proud. If it were the Feng Yi from his own dimension, Sky Shadow believed that Feng Yi would definitely choose to learn.

Because the Feng Yi he knew wasn't so reckless. A true strong man wouldn't flaunt his pride so openly. The Feng Yi he knew was a man who could judge when to advance or retreat, understand limits, stay calm and tackle problems with a sense of responsibility. His most notable trait was the habit of observing and learning, assimilating the strengths of many and integrating them with reform, making the unique skills of others his own.

Therefore, while Sky Shadow appreciated him, within that admiration, a rare hint of another emotion flickered through his eyes.

"It seems you and he are not the same."

"Not the same?"

"Never mind, just forget I said anything."

Although Sky Shadow said this, the others around him, including Zhang Xiaobo, could definitely hear another implication in his words. Yes, these two individuals might look the same and come from the same place, but each person's soul is unique and irreplaceable.

Just then, a dog's bark came from afar...

"Uh, what's that noise, a dog barking? Why would there be a dog barking in the wilderness of Colonial Planet 103?" Blade Warrior's first reaction was that it was impossible; in such an environment, it was hard for dogs to survive, so she thought she must have heard wrong.

However, what the fatty heard was a cat meowing, "I say, miss, that was clearly a cat meowing, which of your ears heard it as a dog."

The fatty quickly retorted beside her. It must be said that the difference between a cat's meow and a dog's bark is quite significant, so much so that any normal person could notice it. However, Blade Warrior heard a dog's bark, which somewhat baffled the fatty. Despite the confusion, he still decided to listen carefully to figure out if the sound was really from a dog or a cat.

Sky Shadow also tilted his head slightly at this moment, listening intently. He didn't give his judgment immediately. Analyzing from the length of the sound waves, it sounded more like a dog, but analyzing the thickness of the sound, it also resembled a cat's, so Sky Shadow decided to listen carefully.

"So it has come after all, that kind of monster."

"Do you mean…" Blade Warrior seemed to think of something.

"Yes, the Big Clumsy Beast."

"But there's nothing in this vast wilderness. Why would such a monster suddenly appear?"

Fatty Zhang Xiaobo really couldn't understand. The plain was calm one second ago, why did it suddenly begin making noise? And everyone had been in the Time-Space Transfer Device for so long without noticing it, this couldn't be explained logically, it wasn't scientific, nor magical, nor logical, and it befuddled him.

Feng Yi said, "That's why I said we should be cautious about this beast during the day. Its sense of smell is even better than a dog's. When you boarded the Time-Space Transfer Device, of course, it was hard for it to detect scents from afar, but now it's different, now it's daytime, the Big Clumsy Beast usually moves during the day and hunts at night, it could even smell scents from ten kilometers away, maybe our scent has already been detected."

"No, that doesn't make sense." The fatty racked his brains but couldn't figure it out, "Then what about the days you spent hidden in the snow? According to you, the Big Clumsy Beast should come out to hunt during the day, and your body scent should have been detected."

Feng Yi said, "How could I come unprepared? I had applied local Fragrant Herbal on my body before coming. This scent is highly disliked by the Big Clumsy Beast. They like to eat fruits, have a sweet tooth, but Fragrant Herbal is a very pungent plant, usually where Fragrant Herbal grows, the Big Clumsy Beast won't appear. This plant normally thrives in temperate regions and is quite popular locally, especially among hunters who often go out, almost every one of them will prepare Fragrant Herbal before a hunt."

"Hey, why didn't you tell us sooner." The fatty slapped his hands forcefully, "You should've prepared some for us too."

"I'm running low on Fragrant Herbal, only enough for two people to use. And the local black market is only open on weekends, so there's not enough time to prepare. That's why I bought some fruits as travel provisions."

"Travel provisions..." Hearing this term that seems unrelated to the situation, Blade Warrior couldn't help but feel amused. It really was just as Feng Yi had said previously, 'This mountain is mine, this road I paved, this tree I planted, these flowers I nurtured. If you wish to pass, leave something behind for the road.'"

"So what do we do now, should we go?"

"Why waste any more time?" Sky Shadow glanced in that direction, "Just kill them."

In a life or death battle, he wouldn't even blink, let alone at a few monsters.

"Kill them? I don't think that's a good idea. Although these monsters are annoying, they don't normally harm people. They just nibble on snacks to get what they want, I see no need for such actions."

Fatty suddenly became overly sympathetic. Although he was often capable of ruthless actions, he couldn't bear to harm such clumsy creatures after hearing Feng Yi's explanations. After all, Feng Yi had shared why these clumsy creatures liked eating fruits.

It's because their bodies lack the vitamins found in fruits, and the local climate is suitable for these creatures. However, the regions where fruits are grown are usually in temperate zones, far beyond the reach of these creatures, hence a habit has formed. They only act as roadblocks but won't harm people unless provoked.

Feng Yi responded, surprising everyone, "I wouldn't recommend it. I must say, I would stand no chance fighting a monster on my own, even though I'm not as strong as you all."

Zhang Xiaobo was again stunned, "Really bro? How big is that monster?"

"Not very big, about the size of a car. But what's crucial is their agility and defense capabilities. They are immune to most physical damage, their skin covered by a layer of hard scales, making regular weapons—no, at least weapons like the Gatling, completely ineffective. In fact, the human settlements' walls are painted every few dozen meters with Fragrant Herbal that the clumsy creatures dislike, which keeps them at bay. That's the reality."

Fortunately, Feng Yi was prepared in advance, and while speaking, he took out a few bunches of frozen bananas, "These fruits are quite expensive locally, take them. One for each person, just give one to the clumsy creatures when they come."

"One, one banana?" Blade Warrior repeated.

"Yes, any problem with that?"

"No problem, I just can't comprehend how a single banana can suffice for such creatures."

"Yeah, one is enough, but usually, these clumsy creatures appear in groups, that's why I've prepared so much. These creatures are social animals."

"Uhh..." Blade Warrior visualized a series of exclamation marks, "How many constitute a group?"

"It varies, at least a few dozen in small numbers, more in larger groups," Feng Yi paused, "I haven't seen them myself, but as per what veteran hunters have told, at most there could be an endless sea of them, countless, probably tens of thousands at a minimum."

No way? Tens of thousands, one banana per monster, that would mean tens of thousands of bananas just as a payoff, even if Feng Yi sold off all his assets, he couldn't afford it. Fortunately, from his tone, their numbers didn't seem too high, so with the principle of avoiding unnecessary problems, they each took a bunch of bananas, ready to feed them.

The men were fine, but it felt awkward for the women to be holding bananas while walking in the group. Why should they carry bananas?

Watching Mengdie and Blade Warrior leading the group, Fatty couldn't help but feel a burst of mirth and snapped several pictures instantly.

He thought the photo could fetch a pretty high price at auction, especially if embellished with a sensational story.
