Chapter 164: Smart Ape

By the river in the valley where Fan Li and the others fell.

Unwilling to give up, Hannah and Chloe searched along the river. Hannah actually found Mai Ziwen's gun and gave it to Chloe.

She was still accustomed to using a knife. Even when she was hunting with Fan Li, she showed even more amazing marksmanship than Fan Li, but she still liked to use a knife.

In fact, they all know that even Mai Ziwen and Fan Lipi, who taught Hannah how to own a gun, are not as good as each other, let alone Hannah, a half-baked apprentice who accidentally had a bright idea.

They were walking along the river, but they didn't know that there was a ferocious ape-man beside them, staring at them and drooling.

Chloe saw that the gun was intact, "Do you really think they are all still alive?"

Hannah changed the topic, "We didn't find any bodies...the water is so deep...if they fell in..."

Just now she said that the body might have been eaten by wild animals, but now she said the opposite.

Chloe interrupted her with a wry smile, "You are not a good liar..."

Hannah turned around to say something, but her expression suddenly changed, "Behind you!"

"Ouch..." An ape-man jumped out at the right time and rushed towards Chloe, who had his back turned to him.

When Hannah saw this, without thinking, she threw her dagger and killed the ape who wanted to attack Chloe.

But then, with a roar, countless ape-men sprang out from the jungle on the side, and they all pounced on the two of them with their claws and teeth.

When Chloe turned around in shock, she hurriedly took the gun and wanted to shoot the ape-man, but the ape-man had already rushed in front of her and knocked down the gun.

Seeing the ape-man coming towards her, she could only temporarily give up holding the gun and fight the ape-man in hand-to-hand combat with her bare hands.

Hannah rushed over to help, but she had no weapons at this time and could only fight with fists and feet.

Without the help of the men, Chloe showed unprecedented bravery. She even took off her belt and used it as a meteor hammer to beat those apes who dared to get close.

Hannah was as agile as ever, and as brave as ever. Even when facing apes with weapons, she still couldn't benefit from these guys.

Finally, after forcing the ape-men away, Chloe hurriedly picked up the gun, used the butt of the gun to fight off one ape-man, then opened the gun and shot another ape-man who came after him.

The ape-man was horrified by the sound of gunfire and the mystery and power of firearms. He hurriedly abandoned the bodies of his companions and retreated deep into the jungle like a tide.

Chloe breathed a sigh of relief. "Our conversation was rudely interrupted by these guys. Where were we talking before?"

Hannah ignored Chloe's cold-humored teasing, took back her dagger and continued to move forward, "Let's go down the river."

Chloe nodded and followed. "Of course, life or death? They will always go downstream."

She was walking, and her steps suddenly paused. Then she continued to follow with an ugly look on her face, "What if, I mean, what if we are the only ones left?"

Hannah didn't look back, "So? I have to try to take care of you."

She didn't wait for Chloe to show dissatisfaction, "Tesla will regard this as another of his experiments..."

She stopped and glanced at Chloe, who was expressionless, "And Mai Ziwen will record this story..."

Chloe always had a venomous tongue, "But he is just an inexperienced master's degree. This kind of danger..."

Hannah frowned and walked forward. "He also worked as a war correspondent."

She doesn't believe that Mai Ziwen is worse than others, and she rejects this.

It was rare for Chloe to consider other people's feelings, "Okay, I admit that he has grown up."

Hannah couldn't comment, "Of course, they will be fine..."

However, while the two were walking and talking, the dead leaves on the ground suddenly shrank, and they seemed to have stepped on something and were quickly lifted into the air on the big branch.

"Ah!" Chloe exclaimed: "What is this?"

Hannah didn't struggle, "The vine net, no matter what it steps on, will tighten and hang up."

Because she knew that with such a small trap, the more she struggled, the tighter the rope would become, which would not be conducive to her pulling out a short knife to cut off the vines.

"Quick!" Chloe urged Hannah to cut the vines with a knife, but she herself pulled out a pistol, pointed the muzzle downward, and scanned the surroundings with her eyes, hoping to hit the ambusher head-on.

Hannah pulled out her short knife and cut through the tough vine net with all her strength.

A figure emerged from the jungle.

This man was holding a long gun and pointed it at the two people on the vine net.

But the next moment, he was shocked, "Chloe? Hannah?"

He is actually Tesla.

Chloe felt that her whole body suddenly lost strength, and the muzzle of the gun lowered, "Huh..."

Hannah was even more shocked than Tesla, "You...Professor Tesla!"

Tesla put away his spear and immediately showed a bright and happy smile, "Ha, what are you doing here?"

Chloe was furious, "I think this should be obvious, right?"

Tesla was not angry at all, but was more cheerful, "I really didn't expect it, I mean... I'm really happy to see you."

Hannah stopped cutting the net and her expression became relaxed, "Are you okay?"

Tesla looked complacent, "Of course, almost unscathed."

Chloe was still unhappy, "Okay, enough of the pleasantries, could you please put us down, okay?"

Tesla was embarrassed, "Uh, of course, I'm really sorry, I forgot about this."

He walked to one side, pulled the vine rope on the other side, and the hanging net immediately fell.

Chloe and Hannah were beaten to pieces, "Oh..."

Tesla was dumbfounded when he saw it.

After regaining her freedom, Hannah was curious, "The cliff is so high, how did you survive the fall?"

When Tesla recalled it, even he thought it was incredible, "It was simply a miracle. First, the jungle branches and leaves along the river blocked the inertial speed of my fall;

"Then, a vine net that touched me caught me, causing me to hang in the air a few meters above the ground. Only then was I able to survive almost unscathed."

Hannah was shocked, "It's amazing."

Tesla laughed and said, "Oh, luckily, someone set up that vine net."

Chloe thought of the net that caught them, "Someone or something?"

Hannah thought of the life-and-death struggle, "We found a large number of apes in the upper reaches."

Tesla took the lead, "The cavemen, they are part of Tianwu."

Hannah was convinced, "Maybe this network is their masterpiece and they have become smarter."

Chloe was scared, "The word smart is such a good lesson."

Tesla looked back and said, "Isn't this a fascinating improvement?"

He became excited again, "After I crawled out of the net, I thought about it again. I have never found anything so interesting before."

Chloe smiled and patted Tesla's belly, "Tesla, to be honest, you have big eyes but a small belly."

Tesla stopped and said, "This reminds me of when Fan Li taught Wolf Warrior and the others how to build a net for fishing. Seriously, is there any news about anyone else?"
