Chapter 1464: All Were Captured
Yusuf Zuck did not reveal himself but remained hidden, secretly observing. This world was peculiar, and its inhabitants equally so, prompting him to avoid exposing himself before figuring out his location.
The beggar-like small giant lacked any discernible cultivation aura—at least Yusuf Zuck couldn’t determine his rank.
About two hours later, the small giant, having eaten and drunk his fill, sat cross-legged and stared at his ten chicken claw-like fingers.
At this moment, his hands had transformed into chicken claws. All the flesh and tendons had been gnawed clean, leaving only ten bare finger bones, still smeared with fresh blood.
"Sigh, ate them again. Who knows when this will end?" the small giant grumbled, then suddenly puffed up his cheeks and blew hard onto his hands!
A miracle occurred in that instant. As he exhaled, the ten chicken claw bones began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than two breaths, a pair of flawless, unblemished hands had grown back, showing no signs of prior injury.
Yusuf Zuck smacked his lips in amazement. He had learned a new trick—if he ever craved meat desperately later on, he could barbecue his own hands and simply regrow the flesh and blood. It wouldn’t be such a big deal.
However, the psychological fear of doing so would be unbearable for most people.
With his hands restored, the small giant grinned, pulled out a blade of grass, and began picking his teeth, dislodging bits of meat stuck in his gaps. Half-lounging comfortably, he squinted his eyes, crossed his legs, and hummed a tune.
The night passed quickly. As dawn broke, the small giant rose and strode through the thorny forest. Occasionally, he would pick fruits from towering trees or munch on plant seeds.
Yusuf Zuck followed behind him, the two forming a front-and-back pair. It took them seven whole days to finally arrive at a vast forest lake. The lake’s waters were crystal clear, yet oddly, not a single fish was seen jumping.
