Chapter 8 - 007 Ways to Escape the Forest

Chapter 8: 007 Ways to Escape the Forest Time kept slipping by. Before he knew it, ten days had passed. On this day, in one corner of the forest, Shane, in tattered clothes and wielding a dazzling Holy Sword, faced off against the enemy. "Roar!" "Roar!" A group of demons, wielding clubs and covered in hair, each with a single horn and a sinister appearance like evil ghosts, roared one by one and charged at Shane. Each one of them was robust in build, resembling gorillas. Their presence resonated with a ferocious aura, just like the fierce bird with a human face and serpent body Shane encountered before. By now, Shane knew that the aura was Magic Power. These demons also possessed Magic Power and could use it not only to enhance their strength but also to increase their resistance to injury. Some demons could even expend it to breathe fire and lightning, akin to using magic. They were extremely dangerous. During these days, Shane encountered demons that could petrify targets they gazed upon and even demons that could curse and corrode the enemy's flesh. It could be said that if not for possessing max-level skills like Physical Resistance, Magic Resistance, and Abnormal State Resistance, along with the protection of the Holy Sword, Shane wondered how many times he might have died facing these demons. Now, in front of these beasts, Shane no longer felt fear.@@@@ Seeing the rush of Unihorned Demons, Shane advanced instead of retreating. "Evolve!" While running, Shane unhesitatingly used the Extreme Transformation skill. In that moment, the max-level Extreme Transformation provided Shane with an enormous boost, causing his abilities to rise explosively. "Whoosh!" Instantly, Shane's speed increased exponentially, and like a blur, he dashed into the crowd of demons. "Slash!" Shane felt conflicted, not sure when he stopped fighting, wiping off the blood on the Holy Sword and sighing. All around him, the Unihorned Demons lay in a sea of blood, slaughtered without exception. As for Shane, he was unharmed and untainted by a single drop of blood. This was understandably due to the psychological scar from his first day in the Otherworld, making a certain fallen Hero utterly terrified of being close to blood, consciously avoiding splatters and puddles on the ground. Recalling the past days of dining and spending nights in the open, being frightened awake by demons' attacks in the middle of the night, and sometimes forced to slice off demon meat to eat from hunger, Shane felt an urge to cry. "When will these days end, Lady Goddess?" Shane sighed deeply, but his hands didn't slow down, starting to cut up the surrounding Unihorned Demons to select the edible parts. Ten days were more than enough for Shane to hone some wilderness survival skills, and he didn't mind eating demon meat at all. After all, with the Abnormal State Resistance skill, not to mention the Holy Sword's negative state immunity and purification effect, there was no fear of upsetting his stomach. Of course, whether it tasted good or was desirable to eat was another matter entirely. "This is forcing me to become Master Bear!" In frustration, Shane sliced a Unihorned Demon in half. At that moment... "Screech!" With a sharp cry, a shadow passed over the sky. As Enemy Detection reacted, Shane looked up immediately and saw a demon. "That's..." Seeing that demon, Shane was first startled, then his eyes lit up. Because Shane had thought of something. He thought of a way to escape this forest.
