On Skull Island.
Mark and Gunpei Ikari, two WWII soldiers, were cautiously making their way through the dense jungle.
They never imagined that one day they would end up in a place where giant beasts roamed freely.
This was simply a terrifying Hell.
Everything here exceeded their understanding.
[At this point, I hope readers can remember our domain name.
For Taiwan novels, look for Taiwan Novel Network—it’s super powerful.] If information about this place could be sent out, the entire human world would surely be thrown into an uproar.
They could even sell the information here for a fortune.
Unfortunately for them, forget about selling information for money; whether they could leave alive was currently a problem.
The two were tired and hungry.
But they didn’t dare stop before finding a safe shelter.
More fatally, in this boundless dense jungle, the two had long since lost their way.
The only thing they could do now was follow their instincts and keep moving in one direction, hoping to find a way out.
Another day passed.
By this time, the two had crossed the dense jungle and arrived at a grassy field by a river.
However, just as they emerged from the jungle to the riverbank, they saw a scene they would never forget.
A Brachiosaurus, over twenty meters long, lay on the ground wailing.
In front of the Brachiosaurus’s belly, a terrifying creature that looked like a lizard but was twenty meters long with a long, skull-like head was devouring it.
It was a Skullcrawler.
The Brachiosaurus’s entire abdomen had been ripped open by this Skullcrawler, but it hadn’t died yet; it could only watch in agony as the Skullcrawler continuously consumed its internal organs.
It was a cruel sight that chilled Mark and Gunpei Ikari to the bone.
What was even worse…
The moment the two emerged from the jungle, the Skullcrawler spotted them.
Had they encountered other giant beasts, Mark and Gunpei Ikari might not have been in much danger just by being seen.
Because to giant beasts that were easily twenty or thirty meters tall, humans were far too tiny—a single bite wouldn’t even get stuck between their teeth.
But unfortunately, they had encountered a Skullcrawler.
Skullcrawlers were bloodthirsty and murderous creatures; as long as it wasn’t one of their own kind, any creature that appeared in their sight would become a target for the hunt.
If they were hungry enough, Skullcrawlers would even devour their own kind.
“Roar!” Seeing Mark and Gunpei Ikari emerge from the jungle…
The Skullcrawler instantly let out a hiss-roar, abandoned the Brachiosaurus, and charged toward Mark and Gunpei Ikari.
“Run!” Seeing this, the two quickly dove back into the original dense jungle.
It had to be said that as soldiers, their psychological resilience and courage far exceeded that of ordinary people.
An average person facing a Skullcrawler would have likely collapsed on the ground in fear, but while these two were terrified, they didn’t lose their reason and knew to flee.
Seeing Mark and Gunpei Ikari dive into the woods, the Skullcrawler immediately followed.
“Boom!
Boom!
Boom!” As the Skullcrawler’s massive body entered the woods, trees were knocked down and rocks were sent flying instantly.
Whole swathes of trees snapped and collapsed along the way.
However, hindered by these trees, the Skullcrawler’s speed was significantly impeded, preventing it from catching Mark and Gunpei Ikari immediately.
But even so, the Skullcrawler stayed hot on their heels, causing them to narrowly escape death multiple times.
Seeing the Skullcrawler relentlessly pursuing them, the two knew they would eventually be caught if they kept running like this.
After running for a while, they immediately chose to split up and run in different directions.
Looking at the two fleeing in separate directions, the Skullcrawler chose to pursue Gunpei Ikari from Japan.
Ultimately, Gunpei Ikari was caught by the Skullcrawler, crushed in one bite, and swallowed into its stomach.
At this time, Mark had run to a small hilltop in the distance, and his gaze happened to catch the sight of Gunpei Ikari being crushed and swallowed by the Skullcrawler.
Mark couldn’t help but feel a surge of sadness.
Although he and Gunpei Ikari were originally enemies locked in a life-and-death struggle, after falling here, they had turned enemies into friends and chosen to join forces; fighting side-by-side for several days had fostered a mutual friendship.
It might not seem tempting right nobut who knows what the future holds?
