I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

Chapter 51: Exploring Warm Moon Pond

Translator: 549690339

“This map of Sky Wolf Valley seems simple, and as long as a demon is familiar with this area, it can easily be drawn. However, ordinary people would not bother creating such a thing.”

Furthermore, the fact that the Wolf Demon has been collecting demon skeletons and animal hides is quite unusual. In addition, he also has a Storage Ring. Maybe, as Zhou Lingyin said, this Wolf Demon is not so simple.” As he held the Old Beastskin Map in his hands, Su Nan couldn’t help but speculate.

For some reason, he had a feeling that the Wolf Demon seemed to be looking for something.

The only location marked on the map was Warm Moon Pond, and there was undoubtedly a big problem here.

“The location of Warm Moon Pond is very far from Thousand Wolf Cave. If I were to use foreknowledge there, three minutes wouldn’t even be enough to get me to my destination.”

“I must be close to Warm Moon Pond before I use foreknowledge.”

After some introspection, Su Nan decided to head towards the direction of Warm Moon Pond.

The route to Warm Moon Pond is narrow and rugged, covered by vines in many places. Without the map, Su Nan might not have even noticed it.

Clearly, not many demons journeyed on this path on a regular basis.

Su Nan stayed on high alert, prepared to exit the game at any moment.

Fortunately, he didn’t encounter any dangers along the way, or at least nothing that seemed evidently out of place.

After six or seven minutes, he stopped at a bend where he could hear the distinct sound of flowing water.

According to the map, he was now very close to Warm Moon Pond. Another half-minute walk would bring him to his destination.

“This is the spot.” Without going any further, Su Nan began using foreknowledge at this location.

[You are drawn to the location marked in red on the Ancient Beastskin Map and decide to investigate. You don’t encounter any dangers along the way, easily finding the location drawn on the map.]

[As you suspected, there is indeed a pool formed by a waterfall at this location, and a small river extends downstream from it, its destination unknown.] [There are no Wolf Demons guarding this place; it appears to be just an ordinary pool of water.]

[You search around the pond, hoping to discover something, but after several breaths, you find nothing.]

[It appears to be a completely ordinary pond.]

“Just an ordinary pond?”

Su Nan frowned, as this was completely unexpected.

He had thought that this would be a unique location, possibly even a guarded stronghold for the demons.

But not only were there no demon guards, but it was also just a simple pond. [You are unwilling to accept that the only marked location on the map is ordinary. You continue your search, hoping to spot a clue.]

[You are unaware that as you search, a sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked demon in the shadows is staring at you with eyes filled with hatred.] [This is a Spirit-level Monster. A year ago it was wounded by the Wolf Demon you impersonated, which has caused it to harbor a grudge and seek revenge.] [Unfortunately, although it’s of the same Spirit Level, the Wolf Demon’s strength far exceeds its own, so it has been unable to successfully avenge itself. Until today, you failed to notice it immediately, and it sees an opportunity.] [Eventually, the demon finds an appropriate time to ambush you, suddenly attacking from behind.]

[You sense the danger and try to dodge, but your speed is too slow to avoid the demon’s attack.]

[Your heart is ripped out by the demon from behind.]

[You are dead.]

“No wonder this is the territory of demons, there are demons everywhere watching you.”

Since leaving Kun Tian Prison, Su Nan had used foreknowledge five times, and on three occasions, he was targeted by demons.

This meant that although Sky Wolf Valley was the territory of the Wolf Demon, there were still many other demons dwelling within it.

Being targeted by those demons almost always led to a dead-end outcome. “This time’s foreknowledge wasn’t without gain. The demon beside the pond had once been injured by the Wolf Demon and had wanted to take revenge. This indicates that the Wolf Demon may have been here more than once.” In the foreknowledge, Warm Moon Pond was just an ordinary pond, but the Wolf Demon’s multiple visits made Su Nan feel that this place was not simple. He carefully reviewed the information from the foreknowledge, trying to find something he had overlooked.

“What have I overlooked?”

Unfortunately, the foreknowledge only lasts three minutes, which is too short. Even if there’s something in Warm Moon Pond, he doesn’t have time to look for it.

If he could personally go to Warm Moon Pond, he might be able to find something.

“Since it’s a pond, could there be a problem with the water?”

Su Nan suddenly thought of a possibility and couldn’t help but brighten up. This possibility was very high, as ponds are the best places to hide things. If there’s an issue with Warm Moon Pond, then the most likely problematic place would be the pond itself!

With this in mind, Su Nan decided to use foreknowledge once more.

As the foreknowledge time cooled down, he started it again.

[You are attracted by the red circle on the old beastskin map and decide to investigate.]

[You arrive at your destination smoothly and, looking at this ordinary pond, you realize that if there’s a problem, it’s probably in the pond itself. You decide to enter and investigate.]

[However, before you can do anything, a demon suddenly attacks you from behind.]

[You were prepared, but your speed was still too slow, and you failed to dodge the demon’s attack.]

[Your lower back is severely injured by the demon.]

“Does this demon really like to attack from behind?,” Su Nan frowned.

The demon by the pond was not as powerful as the Wolf Demon, but it was still a spirit-level, and that alone was more than he could handle.

The key issue was that the demon liked to attack from behind, which left him unsure how to make a move.

[The demon failed to kill you with one blow and immediately launched another attack. At the critical moment, you jumped into the pond, barely surviving.] [Despite the discomfort in your body, you dive deeper into the water. The pond is so deep that you can’t see the bottom.]

[You struggle to swim downwards, not noticing that your blood is spreading in the water, attracting numerous fish with sharp fangs.]

[These are a kind of fish called corpse-eating fish. They gather more and more, and finally, when they reach a certain amount, they launch an attack on you.] [You desperately fight back in the water, but it’s useless, and the more blood that flows, the more excited the corpse-eating fish become.]

[You were devoured.]

[Before you die, you finally see numerous skeletons exposed in the sludge at the bottom of the pond.]

“Eaten by fish?”

Not killed by the demon, but eaten by fish instead, Su Nan feels the deep malice this world has for him.

Fortunately, this time he gained something new.

There are a large number of skeletons at the bottom of the pond, which aligns

with the Wolf Demon’s collection of demon bones.

Perhaps the demon bones collected by the Wolf Demon come from here.

“I can be certain that there’s an issue with Warm Moon Pond, but for now, I don’t see any advantage for me.”

Su Nan leaves.

Having used up his two foreknowledge attempts and not getting much useful information, he doesn’t want to waste more time here.

When his foreknowledge attempts are refreshed, he plans to check out the other two places. He needs to find a way out of Sky Wolf Valley as soon as possible.

Su Nan doesn’t return to the Thousand Wolf Cave, but heads towards Kun Tian Prison instead

The Wolf Demon’s job is to patrol the first level of Kun Tian Prison, so to continue the disguise, he can’t abandon his duties.

He returns to Kun Tian Prison very smoothly.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, several armor-clad demons, holding more than a dozen humans, walk down the road leading to the gorge above..
