After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 425 Bugs Are All Protein

Chapter 425: Insects are all protein

Zhang Chi quickly realized the true nature of the Dragon Gate.

The arch did have the function of spatial transmission, but it didn't throw people downstream of the Dragon River, but rather transported them into the Secret Realm. The scene was the same as the outside world, so it was easy to be misunderstood.

With no obvious crisis, Zhang Chi felt somewhat relieved.

But now, with hunger in their bellies, they had few choices.

When hungry, they could only eat something.

In this water, there were only water plants and some small insects.

These small insects were probably specifically prepared for them to eat.

Zhang Chi: "......"

He suddenly understood the essence of the Dragon Gate assessment.

To achieve great things, one not only needs the will to forge ahead, but also the ability to humble oneself and endure temporary humiliation.

At this moment, the other carp were also hungry.

Hong Li, who was in the lead, felt a weakness in her body and realized that she needed to eat.

The majestic Great Monster King Hong Li was actually feeling hungry?

Even more absurdly, there were no spiritual herbs in the river, only some small insects and water plants.

"I can't accept this!"

Hong Li's inner turmoil was intense.

She had already suffered quite a bit, but now she was being asked to dig in the mud for food, which she found very difficult to accept.

Originally, she thought that eating deoxyribose was already very painful and humiliating, but she didn't expect the Dragon Gate to make her taste even more humiliation.

Digging in the mud for food, isn't that the same as livestock?

However, if Hong Li didn't eat, she would lose her strength and be washed back by the water flow.

Although she found a rock to stop her decline, without the strength to swim, she couldn't succeed.

At this moment, she saw a golden carp swimming towards her, digging in the mud.

This...

The gills of the fish would filter out the excess mud, and its body would instinctively find the small insects in the silt.

No, how could you, such a good-looking carp, be so brave?

The appearance of the golden carp surprised Hong Li greatly.

Even more surprising was that behind the golden carp were three other carp, all of them digging in the mud just like the golden carp.

Hong Li: "......"

Seeing them like this, Hong Li initially thought that these were carp that grew in the Dragon River, but when she saw the ice-blue carp, she couldn't believe it.

The Dragon River realm did not have nuclear radiation, so Hong Li had naturally never seen a blue carp.

This could only be a person transformed.

Seeing Hong Li as a fish, Zhang Chi knew for sure that it was her.

Seeing Hong Li's weakness, Zhang Chi knew that she hadn't eaten anything.

In fact, this test was actually very simple, but also the most difficult.

The sense of shame in one's heart is the greatest shackle for a person.

Hong Li was not a human, but she had thoughts and a sense of shame just like a human, so she also had this kind of shackle.

As for Zhang Chi...

He was a ruthless person.

When Zhang Chi took the lead in eating mud, everyone else was stunned.

Gu Youyou was even more baffled.

Wow, do you really think you're a fish?

Although we said we should be open-minded, there's no need to be this open-minded.

But Zhang Chi calmly said, "The insects are not poisonous, and they contain more protein. Eating a little can restore a lot of energy, while the water plants may seem easy to accept, but they are not very nutritious. It's better to eat insects than grass."

"......"

It was at this moment that Gu Youyou once again confirmed that Zhang Chi was truly ruthless.

"I'm not eating insects, I'm eating the shackles in my heart."

Zhang Chi used the power of mental victory to convince himself.

It's just eating insects, it's not like I haven't seen Uncle Bei eat them before.

With Zhang Chi taking the lead, Snow Mountain God quickly followed suit.

Although Snow Mountain God had turned into a fish and was subject to the rules here, her realm had not been completely suppressed.

Illusions that others couldn't see through, she could naturally see through at a glance.

There were no insects or water plants here, just some clusters of spiritual energy.

Interestingly, these clusters of spiritual energy could not be absorbed by physical contact, only by entering through the mouth.

Even if these things were not insects, even if they were, as a plant, she had nothing to fear.

Tang Ruoling and Long Yan felt a little pressured and were still hesitant.

But seeing the golden carp and the blue carp eating heartily, they gritted their teeth and started digging in the mud.

They didn't dare to look at the appearance of the insects, they just swallowed them whole, knowing that the gills would filter out the mud.

After eating, they found that the taste was actually not bad, and their inner resistance diminished.

This is the power of example.

Without someone taking the lead, they might not have been able to do it, but with someone doing it first, they felt less ashamed.

So, the four fish dug in the mud, and their physical and mental states were constantly replenished. As a result, the four fish kept swimming and eventually caught up with the leading Hong Li.

Originally, Hong Li, as a fish, was the fastest, and she had started early, always leading the way.

But the consequence of standing still was being overtaken by those who came later. Seeing that Hong Li had been somewhat tamed, Zhang Chi gave her a hint.

"Eat!"

Zhang Chi swam around Hong Li and then nudged the mud.

Hong Li shook her head frantically.

"I won't eat, even if I starve to death in this river, I won't eat!"

"Sis, just take a few bites, it's delicious!"

Zhang Chi tried to persuade Hong Li, but she kept shaking her head.

Helpless, Zhang Chi had to press Hong Li into the mud and push her forward.

Snow Mountain God also understood and stirred the mud, forcibly feeding Hong Li.

"Huh? Insects are so delicious?"

Hong Li was stunned for a moment, forgot to struggle, and felt her strength quickly returning. Now she didn't need Zhang Chi to force her.

However, she became curious about who this golden carp was.

The way it did things was a bit like Zhang Chi?

Thinking of this possibility, Hong Li couldn't help but lean towards Zhang Chi.

Her demonic personality liked Zhang Chi, and after recognizing Zhang Chi's identity, she naturally felt joy in her heart.

So, this team of fish became a group of five, and Zhang Chi would let others take turns leading the way. When Hong Li was in the lead, the other fish would imitate her movements. Gradually, the speed of the group of fish increased significantly.

This is the power of teamwork.

Meanwhile, outside, the Hunting Ghost Alliance and the White Tiger Observer had surrounded the Dragon Gate and set up strict defenses, beginning the selection of the Dragon Gate candidates.

Of course, the first group of outsiders to enter would have to wait for Zhang Chi and the others to come out before Wenren Li would let them in.

They didn't know the progress of Zhang Chi and the others in the Dragon River, but those who possessed the treasure could sense that Zhang Chi and the others were not in danger.

There were many people trying to pry into the Dragon Gate, but under the watchful eyes of Jin Ling'er and Wenren Li, trying to approach the Dragon Gate beyond them was no different from seeking death.

Wenren Li didn't set up such a large formation just to be charitable.

Under her promotion, Dragon City became the most prosperous city, even more so than when it was ruled by Long Yi.

With more people, there were naturally more business opportunities.

To develop power, financial resources were the most important factor, and reputation was also indispensable.

Wenren Li now had both...
