Chapter 399: This Is the True Doom of Doom Island!

Ning Fei still stood over the swamp.

The monitor lizard pushed through the mud, charging straight at him.

Most of the viewers were terrified for Ning Fei's safety.

Ning Fei, on the other hand, was busy thinking that tangling with this massive creature would ruin his clothes—and he didn't even have a spare change.

Thus, Ning Fei's response was incredibly simple.

The instant the monitor lizard reached him, it lashed its heavy tail right at him.

The blow carried so much force that it faintly whistled through the air.

Ning Fei leaped up, planting a foot squarely on the creature's sweeping tail.

Using the momentum, he launched himself higher, executed a backflip in midair, and landed as lightly as a gymnast dismounting the high bar, touching down safely on the solid ground beside the swamp.

The entire sequence was executed perfectly, flowing smoothly and continuously without pause.

It was a thrilling, hair-raising maneuver, yet he pulled it off with absolute ease.

The monitor lizard stood in the mire, staring fixedly at Ning Fei.

It hissed, its forked tongue flicking in and out, looking thoroughly terrifying.

Ning Fei simply said, "According to the data, monitor lizards have a hundred percent internal parasite infection rate, and an eighty-nine percent infection rate for hard ticks on their skin. These parasites can easily be transmitted to humans."

"The sanitary conditions in the Tropical Rainforest are already poor enough. So, if you can avoid tangling with it, just leave it be."

Seeing the monitor lizard still locked in an aggressive posture, Ning Fei turned to walk away.

The creature clearly had no intention of letting him go. Its four legs rapidly churned the mud, and it charged at Ning Fei with unbelievable speed!

It moved entirely too fast.

The viewers could only watch as the massive lizard darted forward like a striking snake!

"Temple Master Ning, dodge!" the viewers cried out in the comments.

Ning Fei took two steps back.

The monitor lizard was covered in parasites, and its saliva was laden with toxic bacteria. A single bite would be catastrophic.

Ning Fei's movements didn't appear fast.

But to everyone's surprise, the lizard just couldn't manage to sink its teeth into him.

Looking closely, the viewers realized Ning Fei was practically toying with the beast. He was casually stepping back to evade it while intently observing it.

"This monitor lizard looks like it just reached adulthood. This is exactly when its temper is at its worst."

"The fact that it could grow this large shows that the conditions in the Tropical Rainforest are truly excellent."

"This place is absolutely fascinating. To think there's a creature this massive just on the outskirts."

"It makes me even more curious about the heart of the forest."

Ning Fei somehow found the time to explain all this while gracefully dodging the attacks.

At this moment, the monitor lizard felt incredibly frustrated.

No matter how ferociously it attacked, it simply couldn't touch Ning Fei.

It was being played for a fool.

Just then, Ning Fei spoke up again.

"Forget it, I'm done playing around. Time to slip away."

"This is getting boring."

With that, Ning Fei turned his back. Without even a glance over his shoulder, he leaped into the trees with supernatural agility. He bounded from branch to branch and vanished in the blink of an eye.

The monitor lizard froze in its tracks. It stared blankly at Ning Fei's disappearing silhouette, flicking its tongue in a daze.

It lingered for a moment longer before finally turning around and sliding back into the murky swamp.

The viewers were left entirely in awe.

Especially the international viewers.

Over the past two days since the broadcast began, if anyone were to ask which contestant was the most captivating, the undisputed answer would be Ning Fei.

This phenomenal display undoubtedly drew a massive wave of overseas fans to him.

Ning Fei's stream simply felt completely different from the rest.

The other contestants were doing everything in their power just to survive, desperately scrambling for ways to last another day.

Several groups had even banded together into alliances.

The Production Crew permitted alliances; forming teams would naturally spark conflicts of interest, strip away the veneer of polite society, and create fantastic drama for the viewers.

But Ning Fei stood entirely apart from the rest.

He acted like an unbothered spectator, casually touring the Tropical Rainforest at his own leisurely pace.

At this moment, Ning Fei was perched high up in a tree, picking bananas.

"Lucky me. I found a wild banana tree."

"There are all sorts of delicious fruits hidden within the Tropical Rainforest."

"Bananas, coconuts, mangoes, papayas, you name it."

"It's the perfect way to truly experience the tropical atmosphere."

Up in the branches, Ning Fei snapped off a small bunch of bananas. He casually peeled one to eat as he continued his sightseeing tour.

The viewers roared with laughter at his carefree attitude and amusing commentary.

A short while later, Ning Fei stumbled upon some ripe mangoes, which proved to be incredibly delicious as well.

Meanwhile, the main program was broadcasting the live feed of Kofi, the contestant hailing from Africa.

His popularity in this competition was exceptionally high.

Kofi's immune system was remarkably robust—one could even say he was immune to all toxins. Once this extraordinary trait was discovered, he embarked on a career in outdoor exploration live streaming, amassing a massive fan base.

Even the venomous mosquitoes in the wild couldn't find a place to sink their stingers into his tough skin.

As Kofi himself liked to boast, the venomous mosquitoes in his homeland were far deadlier, yet his tribesmen hunted them down, mashed the mosquitoes together, and pressed them into meat patties for food.

To a man like him, the Tropical Rainforest was nothing more than child's play.

Just moments ago, he had casually chopped the head off a venomous snake with his machete.

At this very moment, Kofi was pushing deeper into the Tropical Rainforest. He intended to set foot in the absolute center of Doom Island.

He knew exactly what the audience wanted to see.

So far, not a single contestant had managed to reach the central zone of Doom Island.

If he could be the first to get there, his popularity would completely skyrocket.

However, as he drew closer to the center, Kofi noticed that the wildlife around him was growing increasingly ferocious.

The show's viewership ratings continued to soar in tandem with his progress.

He had already ventured incredibly deep into the woods.

He held a Crossbow in his hands—one of the five survival items he had chosen to bring. It was a specially modified Crossbow packed with extreme stopping power.

He was confident that even if the most terrifying jaguar in the Tropical Rainforest suddenly appeared, he wouldn't flinch.

Suddenly, a violent rustling sound echoed from the brush right next to Kofi.

The noise was heavy and aggressive. Whatever wild animal was crashing through the foliage, it had to be a terrifying beast.

Kofi raised his weapon, ready for a fight.

What could it be?

A jaguar?

The viewers leaned into their screens, holding their breath in anticipation.

But when the creature finally emerged from the shadows, everyone froze in shock.

Even Kofi stood completely petrified.

Back at the production base, the red light indicating Kofi's surrender and immediate request for extraction flared to life.

The very instant Kofi laid eyes on the creature, he had triggered his emergency flare to forfeit the competition.

And yet, not a single person felt surprised that a seasoned wilderness survival expert had forfeited so decisively.

The viewers watching the broadcast felt a suffocating wave of pure terror.

"Send the rescue team immediately! Get the helicopter in the air!"

In the control room on the shore, Charles stared at the monitor in absolute horror.

The scene captured by the live broadcast was simply too horrific.

No one had ever imagined that such a creature could exist deep within the Tropical Rainforest!

Kofi felt an icy chill gripping his entire body.

Standing directly in front of him was a black gorilla.

To be exact, it was a colossal black gorilla standing nearly three meters tall!

The Tropical Rainforest was home to many species of monkeys and apes.

But a gorilla of this monstrous size had never been seen by human eyes.

Creatures like this possessed brutally violent temperaments.

Some great apes hunted smaller monkeys for food, violently tearing them apart limb from limb before eating them.

Behind this towering gorilla, Kofi could hear more heavy bodies sliding through the tall brush.

He knew right then that this gorilla was not alone.

Hidden within the dark depths of the Tropical Rainforest was an entire troop of giant gorillas!

The massive beast loomed right over Kofi. Its vicious glare, corded muscles, and monolithic frame exuded a suffocating aura of dominance and dread.

This was the true doom of Doom Island!
