Chapter 427 The Intermediate Gauntlet

They had no combat skills whatsoever, whereas Jiang Fan and Yao hailed from modern times, so their combat skills were quite sufficient.

After killing the giant squid, they immediately organized the group of savages to drag the enormous squid out.

Zhou Niannian and Dai Xiaomei were quite incredulous upon seeing Jiang Fan and Yao successfully kill the giant squid. However, seeing the traces of blood on Yao's mouth made them anxious, and they quickly ran over.

"Are you alright? Yao, why is there blood on the corner of your mouth? Did you bite this giant squid?"

Jiang Fan was utterly dumbfounded upon hearing this. How could anyone have such an idea?

"Do you think that's realistic? How could I possibly bite this giant squid?"

"I coughed up blood from being hit. Hurry and take me for treatment, or my life will be forfeit."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Niannian quickly pulled Yao and Dai Xiaomei to tend to his wounds. The rest of the group regarded Jiang Fan and Yao as true deities.

Although the two groups, the modern humans and the savages, stayed in the same place, there were no conflicts, as the giant squid was enough food for them for a month.

"We've finally dealt with the situation here. Now that they're a bit more harmonious, we don't have to worry too much."

As Jiang Fan finished speaking, Zhou Niannian immediately nodded.

"It's alright. Now that we're safe here, we can slowly search for an exit. Moreover, it seems they have great faith in us."

"I can enjoy the feeling of being a deity for a while. Now I'll lead them in building a civilization and help them reach the pinnacle of their lives."

Zhou Niannian's thoughts were perhaps a bit too optimistic. Jiang Fan knew that they were just creatures who had been suddenly created; they weren't truly normal people.

After all, they hadn't appeared in the Golden Coast before. When they appeared on the Golden Coast, it was as if they had spawned, meaning they weren't genuine people.

However, their settings were no different from normal people, which made Zhou Niannian find it very interesting.

But what Jiang Fan wanted to know most now was why the Golden Coast seemed to have flipped over, completely unrecognizable from its previous appearance.

Yet, the giant deep-sea squid was not an illusion. Only in the deep sea would such a creature appear. Now that Jiang Fan had found this giant squid, it proved that this place had indeed once had a sea.

Otherwise, a deep-sea creature wouldn't have appeared so abruptly.

"Damn it, what should we do now? Where exactly is the real exit? If they continue to delay us, it will be difficult for us to get out of here. How can we reach the next stage?"

Jiang Fan was vexed by this matter all day, but Zhou Niannian was exceptionally calm. She came to Jiang Fan's side and said nonchalantly,

"What's the big deal? For now, we'll take things one step at a time. There's no need for a plan. We just need to ensure we don't die. Just like this time, after we resolved the immediate crisis, didn't we survive?"

Jiang Fan didn't know how to refute her, as what she said seemed to have no flaws.

The viewers in the live stream were incredulous at Zhou Niannian's optimistic attitude.

"The change is too drastic! Don't you remember Zhou Niannian in the Hu Caro world, acting like she was on the verge of death? Now that she's out, she's become so optimistic."

"I'm dying of laughter! I remember Zhou Niannian saying in the Hu Caro world that she shouldn't be alive, that her existence was a mistake of the world. It was hilarious."

"She'll probably want to slap herself if she remembers her past self. How could she have said such things?"

"But the lighting in that Hu Caro world was truly remarkable, capable of elevating people's pessimistic emotions so high. It was practically black technology."

Amidst the viewers' discussions, Jiang Fan was still immersed in the feeling of being a god, which he was quite satisfied with.

The group of savages presented all their food. Perhaps it was due to the simplicity of primitive cooking methods, they simply placed the squid meat over a fire. The aroma that wafted out was incredibly enticing.

"This is great. If we could eat squid here forever, that would be a good thing."

Zhou Niannian said, with an expression of enjoyment.

Dai Xiaomei, on the other hand, had also become somewhat enthralled along with Zhou Niannian, completely forgetting that Yao was severely injured.

Yao could only helplessly join them in eating squid on the side.

Gungun, however, was having a blast in the tribe. There were also many domesticated animals there, which were very docile.

But Jiang Fan had a nagging feeling that something big was about to happen, as it was unlikely they would pass this challenge so easily.

However, when he looked up, he found that the moon in the sky had become seven and a half.

"What's going on? Could it be? Is this another intermediate stage? Is this a mandatory checkpoint? Have we successfully reached the next stage?"

Jiang Fan could never have imagined that the Hu Caro world and Atlantis were mandatory checkpoints. They had to pass through that grand gate to reach this next stage.

Seeing the moon in the sky now clearly indicated that they had no connection to the previous Golden Coast, as they had successfully passed that stage.

It was just that the venue refresh was a bit abrupt, allowing them to still see traces of the previous stage even though they had arrived at the next one.

However, this was ultimately a good thing, as they wouldn't be stuck in the same stage forever.

Jiang Fan immediately informed his companions of this news. Upon hearing it, everyone was overjoyed and ate even more heartily.

But Jiang Fan was still at a loss as to how to handle the situation with these savages.
