A Post-Apocalyptic Journey to Another World

Zhang Xi quickly arrived at an open space, dug out a half-pig that he had prepared beforehand, removed the plastic wrap that was wrapped around it, dragged the pork to the noose that Old Liu had set up, and poured the pig's blood that he had prepared beforehand on the pork.

Then they walked to a tree hole far away and put the little yellow dog into the tree hole.

The little monster was quiet, even a little weak. It seemed to sense danger, and whimpered a few times to its right before lying motionless in the tree hole.

Deep in the dense forest, a strange creature was groping its way forward. This monster looked somewhat like an ape, very tall and sturdy, standing at least two and a half meters tall, and covered with thick blue fur.

In the sweltering heat of the rainforest, it was exhaling puffs of mist, and the fur around its lips was frosted over! Its fangs, extending more than ten centimeters above its lips, were crystal clear, as if made of ice.

This is a Frost Troll, a peak Bronze-level monster!

The frost troll was hunting when it was suddenly thrown into this strange world by a rift. In its panic, it smelled a strong stench of blood. The troll's sense of smell was very sharp, and it quickly found the source of the smell: half a pig's carcass.

It spotted a strange monkey perched in a tree in the distance and decided to eat the "monkey" after it finished eating this one.

Zhang Xi was unaware that he had been mistaken for a monkey. He was caught in a dilemma. He had originally been waiting for a Bronze-level Jungle Troll, but instead, a Bronze-level Frost Troll had arrived.

This made him, who was still an ordinary person, nervous. The troll monster was characterized by its super strong regenerative ability, but it also had a fatal weakness: it was afraid of fire.

Its blood seems to contain some kind of oil similar to gasoline, and flames can not only suppress its regenerative abilities, but also burn it to ashes.

However, the Frost Troll does not have this weakness. This type of monster has some incomplete innate talent elements, and frost is the nemesis of fire.

"Damn it, am I just going to give up like this?" Zhang Xi suddenly felt a huge sense of frustration. Had the magical beast puppy he picked up used up all his luck?

'After nearly two months of meticulous preparation, am I just going to give up like this?'

'No, absolutely not!'

In a little over a year, I will enter that chaotic continent, where I will encounter far more dangerous situations than I am now. In my previous life, I avoided danger and lacked sufficient experience, which led to my weak strength and eventual death.

I will never fall into the same trap twice in this life. Even if it costs me my life, I will never back down! After overcoming his fear, Zhang Xi calmed down and waited quietly for the suspension cable to be activated.

At this moment, Zhang Xi felt no fear, no distracting thoughts, only the monster feasting on him.

His mind, however, was clear: "Damn monster, you are strong, but I have been preparing for two whole months. I have also prepared traps here. This is my home turf."

Zhang Xi silently encouraged himself, when suddenly a thought struck him: "Home field! That's right, this is Earth, not the Chaos Continent. Unlike other worlds where the air is filled with elemental energy!"

Here, monsters cannot resonate with external elemental and supernatural elements; they can only release supernatural abilities using the elemental energy stored within their own bodies!

Come on, monster, let's see if your psionic energy runs out first, or if I finish the feast I've prepared for you first. Zhang Xi silently relaxed all the muscles in his body.

Come on! This is a fair game, and the stakes are our lives!

A surprised roar signaled the start of the betting game.

The troll was instantly hoisted upside down by a sling, which was about two fingers thick. The rope creaked under the strain, as if it would break at any moment.

Zhang Xi seized the opportunity, picked up the tranquilizer gun, and fired a shot, hitting the monster squarely in the abdomen. Without hesitation, he then loaded a second syringe into the tranquilizer gun.

Just as he was about to take aim, he saw the vines suspending the troll freeze instantly and then break!

"Damn it." Zhang Xi threw the tranquilizer gun behind him, stood up, grabbed a prepared vine, swung out, grabbed another vine in mid-air, and swung out again like Tarzan.

The twigs in the forest left streaks on Zhang Zhangxi's arms and face, burning with pain, but he didn't care at all.

In just two or three breaths, he landed on a tree trunk again, already 50 meters away.

Turning around, the troll was just as fast. It roared, chasing after the troll and swinging its arms to tear aside the obstructing low bushes. Those arm-thick bushes were like weeds in the troll's hands, swept down in swathes, sending dirt and stones flying and shaking the ground.

Although the bushes were ineffective, they did provide some obstruction, and the mountain path was crisscrossed with gullies, which is why it only managed to chase for 30 meters. Zhang Xi fired another shot, not bothering to reload the explosive, and quickly grabbed a vine rope and swung out.

The troll chased after the tree, its vision blurred, and it was about to fall. It roared, channeling its inner energy to forcibly suppress the effects of the medicine, and continued its pursuit.

The chase continued, and soon all five syringes were used up. Zhang Xi felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that each syringe could paralyze an elephant.

Moreover, none of the large animal traps set in advance on the road were stepped on. However, as disheartened as he was, there was no turning back once the arrow was released, and his eyes were filled with determination.

The troll was also feeling unwell, its increasingly severe dizziness forcing it to constantly expend its internal energy to suppress the effects of the medicine. It felt its energy was running low, and it had almost fallen over just now when it stumbled.

However, the monkey that dared to tease him must be eaten.

Just then, Zhang Xi, who was in front, suddenly lost his grip and slipped off the vine.

The troll was overjoyed and instantly activated its innate ability, Frost Thrust.

The frost spread outwards in ripples from beneath the troll's feet, instantly catching up with Zhang Xi, who was fleeing.

The moment the frost reached Zhang Xi's feet, suddenly with a "whoosh," an icicle nearly two meters tall suddenly pierced out of the frost. The boy seemed unable to dodge in time and was thrown to the side, lying motionless on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the troll roared and pounced on the boy, who was 20 meters away.

The giant beast landed, only to find a layer of withered leaves beneath its feet. It let out a mournful cry and fell into the pit. The boy, who had been lying unconscious, suddenly leaped up, swung a kukri, and cut the vines holding the fence.

Then, with incredible speed, he lunged to the side and locked the falling fence latch to a nearby tree stump.

As soon as the latch was fastened, a tremendous impact force came from the fence, cracking Zhang Xi's hand.

Ignoring the pain, he quickly lit a lighter and threw it into the trap. The gasoline in the pit immediately caught fire, and the pit echoed with the painful roars of the trolls and bursts of cold air, along with occasional loud "bang" sounds.

Exhausted, Zhang Xi walked nearly a hundred meters away, climbed a large tree, and quietly observed the pit until an hour later when the flames slowly went out.

After waiting quite a while, he finally reached the trap. Seeing only a pile of ashes left in the pit, Zhang Xi knew he had won!
