The night was deep, the sky blanketed with countless stars that seemed to stand guard around a pristine white moon.
"Hoo..."
Lin Li stepped out of his tent just as a gust of wind blew in his face.
It was now the early hours of the morning. Here, on the bank of a stream nestled among mountains and far from the bustling city, the sudden gust of wind felt chilling.
The chilly wind soothed Lin Li's pounding heart, and before long, his turbulent thoughts began to fade away.
He glanced back at the tent, thought for a moment, and decided to take a walk, planning to return to sleep in a while.
The brilliant moon, high in the night sky, bathed the ground in a silvery glow, making it easy to see the path without a flashlight.
Lin Li left the campsite, walking along the bank toward the stream's source.
Although this mountain range was within the safety zone and confirmed to be free of Mutant Beasts, ordinary creatures like snakes, insects, and rodents were still around.
