Chapter 1869 "Dangerous Lake Monster?"

The teleportation coordination of all contestants didn't seem to be random and it should be well-planned depending on each contestant's capability known outside of the academy.

Ainsley was dropped at a relatively safe place not because her performance outside of the academy was not good enough but because the organizers who held the assessment wanted to be a bit more lenient to the younger generation.

It was definitely the age privilege as a young kid that gave Ainsley such 'luck'.

The plants alone already gave everyone a headache, coupled with the environment and the unknown danger from the animals, the situation didn't look optimistic.

"We also don't know about the beasts and the monsters lurking in the lake. What if some Piranhas hunt in groups and once we cross the lake, they will attack?"

Most of the animals might not attack if they stayed on the boat, but if they dived into the lake, that was another matter.

Ainsley also had a headache about this situation because even though it was easier to get the man-eating water lily as a whole, there was still no clue about the mysterious monster's cub.

It was said that the academy would send students and instructors to 'sweep' the Four Seasons Island once every six months to prevent the growth of too many monsters, beasts, and mutant plants.

It seemed that the animals and the plants here were already used to strangers breaking into their territory and taking their cubs away, which means, the animals here would be much more ferocious and vigilant towards them.

Isn't this bad news?

The Merfolk woman had not told anyone about why she was fearful of the seemingly harmless lake but after Ainsley finished talking about the magic of the lake's water itself, the Merfolk Woman finally opened her mouth.

Just like most of the people from the Merfolk race, the Merfolk woman had a nice and bewitching voice even when she didn't intend to confuse anyone with her voice.

The woman spoke in a way that felt like she was singing, but in fact, she was not singing and just talking like normal.

"That lake is dangerous. I-I can feel the breath of a lake monster with a strength higher than a high-level monster. That lake monster...is dangerous."

The Merfolk woman gritted her teeth as she recalled the resonance she felt when probing into the lake.

As a Merfolk, most water animals either liked her or dislike her. Those who liked her were usually not her prey and those who disliked her were either pray or weaker ones.

The weaker animals feared and hated her, and those with equal strength or stronger than her were usually close to the woman.

However, there were some monsters and beasts in the deep sea or places with water who didn't dislike her or like her.

They just looked down on her.

These beings were most likely to be much stronger than the woman and didn't put the Merfolk race into their eyes at all.

That mysterious monster inside the lake was the latter type.

The Merfolk woman could resonate with the mysterious monster, but the monster just snorted in disdain, instantly making the Merfolk woman terrified to death.

A monster that was stronger than a high-level monster should be at the same level as a sacred beast, right?

The other contestants, including Ainsley, immediately inhaled sharply and they all broke into a cold sweat.

"How could this be? I know there must be strong beasts, monsters and mutant plants here, but is an existence equal to a sacred beast? Impossible!"

The Cheetah man was the first to deny the Merfolk woman's information because he was more or less knowledgeable about beasts and monsters.

The beastman race was close to beasts and monsters due to their gene and their living place which was close to the Beast Continent full of ordinary beasts or beasts that became monsters after being polluted by the miasma from the Abyss.

The Cheetah guy knew more about beasts than Ainsley, who even had contracts with two sacred beasts and was close to a sacred beast that was about to become a legendary beast.

"It's almost impossible to have sacred beasts or monsters at the level of sacred beasts on this island because most sacred beasts and such monsters have a high territorial instinct."

The stronger the beast or the monster, the bigger their territory, and usually, their entire territory would include the huge Sun-kissed Forest, not just this not-so-big lake.

If the lake monster was indeed an existence at the same level as a sacred beast, people should have felt its presence throughout the entire Sun-kissed Forest.

There would also be an obvious chain of contempt in the forest and it would be almost impossible for beasts and monsters to wander around carelessly like that.

A place with a leader would be much more structured and organized, not free and wild like the Sun-kissed Forest.

There might be an emperor mutant plant at the same level as a sacred beast who ruled over the entire Sun-kissed Forest, but if that was the case, there would be no small territories for other mutant plants.

The fact that the Sun Tree had its own small territory which was influenced by its own strength and element means that there should not be a mutant plant at the same level as a sacred beast.

Humans were used to sacred beasts who were raised in various forces and not living in the wild, which was why they didn't know how territorial a sacred beast could be.

Sacred beasts were all super possessive towards their belongings, and sometimes, they were even cruel to their own children!
