"Ah, I've transmigrated..."
Bai Yi opened her eyes, looking at the grey sky, devoid of joy or sorrow.
She had just accepted reality and was about to enjoy the life of a young miss, hey!
She really just said that casually! How did she actually destroy the world?!
Now it's great!
Snap!
It's gone!
"At least let me enjoy life! Even for a day! I just wanted to slack off!"
Bai Yi was on the verge of tears, shouting to vent her emotions, feeling a bit exhausted for a moment.
The previous announcement was also packed with information—
What kind of god could "accidentally" destroy the world like that?!
At first glance, Bai Yi thought it was just an excuse, but the subsequent information made her start to doubt.
It seemed, it really was possible...
"Sigh..."
What else could she do?
Since she was already here, and according to the announcement, there was no going back. She could only try to follow this so-called game, first set up her territory, and find a way to survive.
Bai Yi still considered herself to have some gaming talent.
Having accepted reality, Bai Yi sat up from the ground, her gaze meeting a pair of eyes intently staring at her.
Stare—
It was a giant crocodile, five or six meters long, with terrifying black scales on its body, emitting a foul smell. Its large mouth was slightly ajar, its eyes glinting fiercely as it stared intently at Bai Yi.
"...?!!"
It took Bai Yi a full 3 seconds to realize what had happened.
She had been with a crocodile for so long?!
Swallowing hard, her saliva turning to manual mode due to nervousness, Bai Yi's mind went blank with fear.
It seemed this crocodile didn't have an immediate desire to attack. Crocodiles with their short legs probably couldn't run fast on land, so maybe she could escape?
Right! Run!
Her body reacted before her mind, her hands pushing off, her feet springing like coiled springs, and she flipped up.
Bai Yi was incredibly grateful at this moment that she wasn't wearing a long dress that would emphasize a quiet demeanor, but rather a short skirt that allowed for easy movement!
Turn, start, sprint!
Bai Yi felt her speed was unprecedentedly fast, much faster than her physical education exams back then!
But immediately, infinite regret rose in her heart, because there was another monster in front of her, a Great Cat whose height was almost hers, with fierce eyes.
It's over...
Her steps couldn't be stopped. The hope that had risen from her speed earlier now completely transformed into despair.
Thud
Although Bai Yi weighed only a little over forty kilograms, with the added speed, the sudden impact momentarily stunned the Great Cat, causing its body to sway.
It was just a long-standing reflex of its body, instinctively swinging a paw forward, striking at the "air" in front of it.
However, Bai Yi had no mind to notice the Great Cat's expression. The Great Cat's five-fingered claws were about to strike her waist, her heart leaping to her throat, as if doing so could evade this fatal claw!
Such sharp claws, one swipe would probably disembowel her...
To be killed right after transmigrating, she was probably the weakest among this batch of Lords...
A string of thoughts flashed through her mind, and Bai Yi was ready to close her eyes and wait for death, but the imagined sharp pain did not come.
The Great Cat's claws pressed against Bai Yi's body, then stopped there, unable to advance an inch.
Bai Yi didn't feel any pain, nor did she feel any force.
This sudden situation was not in Bai Yi's expectation, nor was it apparently in the Great Cat's, leaving both in a dilemma.
Although the giant crocodile behind didn't understand what was happening, it only saw the four-legged beast in front of it extend its claws, but then stop mid-air. It was a good opportunity!
Its four stout short legs erupted with terrifying power, launching its massive body forward, opening its blood-soaked maw that seemed capable of swallowing the entire Great Cat.
Although Bai Yi caught a glimpse of the crocodile's movement out of the corner of her eye, her mind was blank at this moment. Fortunately, her body reacted, rolling away to the side.
Without Bai Yi in the middle, the struggle between the two large creatures was about to erupt.
Getting up from the ground somewhat awkwardly, Bai Yi didn't care about the dirt on her clothes, but struggled to her feet and ran away at the fastest speed.
It wasn't until the sounds of the two monsters fighting became faint, almost imperceptible, that Bai Yi stopped, panting heavily.
"Hoo, hoo, hoo..."
"I feel like I've run all the steps I'll ever run in this life, cough!"
She coughed violently, feeling the metallic taste in her mouth, Bai Yi tried to swallow non-existent saliva, leaning against a nearby large tree to calm her turbulent emotions.
Bai Yi dared not sit down, fearing another danger. She just leaned against the tree, and the rationality lost due to fear began to return.
Looking around, the surroundings were already completely unfamiliar.
She was at the edge of a forest, with unusually tall and lush unknown trees extending to a small mountain, while on the other side was a plain overgrown with weeds, and faint sounds of water seemed to come from afar.
Heh, just transmigrated, what isn't unfamiliar?
She scoffed at herself, the previous experience making Bai Yi feel lingering fear.
"Were those mutated creatures just now? Is this the 'Mutated Ruins'?"
Bai Yi's playful mood had vanished, leaving only one goal in her heart: to survive.
Having just transmigrated, she was immediately given a harsh welcome by this world. Bai Yi felt the deep malice of this world, feeling as if danger lurked everywhere.
No, she had to calm down!
According to the previous prompt, she should still have a panel and some kind of Lord opportunity.
The game mentioned in the previous announcement instantly became Bai Yi's only hope!
