Despite the deceleration provided by the parachute, the capsule is still falling at a relatively high speed.

If this continues...

When the cabin falls into the river, given the current speed, it would probably fall off the huge waterfall in just a few seconds.

The chances of survival are probably infinitely close to zero!

No, we must save ourselves.

Looking down into the cargo bay, besides his own seat, there was a control panel in front of him.

Having only ever operated mechs, the control panel of the small transport vehicle in front of me was completely different from that inside the mech.

There's no complicated control panel, but the other buttons are completely baffling.

The lights on the dashboard and controller in front of me are flashing constantly, and the data is being continuously corrected.

This is an autonomous driving system!

I can't just press the buttons randomly now, because if I press the wrong one, the result will probably be even worse.

Is there a red button?

catapult?

The river was already just a few dozen meters away.

It's too late, eject!

Mu Fan put both backpacks on his body with one arm, then slammed the red button down hard.

Bang!

A tremendous force came from behind, and his entire body was thrown back violently.

The launch vehicle has fallen to a height of less than ten meters above the river surface.

When Mu Fan ejected from the hull and looked down, he realized that the width and swiftness of the river below far exceeded his expectations.

With his left arm unable to support his weight, Mu Fan couldn't control the direction of his ejection, and tragically, he found himself crashing into a thick tree trunk that had broken off and was pointing outwards.

He quickly twisted his body in mid-air, using the two backpacks on his right side as cushions to crash heavily into the tree trunk.

After crashing through more than ten protruding tree branches, Mu Fan finally fell to the ground.

"Phew." Looking up with lingering fear, the dense canopy of leaves effectively blocked out the sunlight from the sky, and the view suddenly became dark.

The sound of the rushing river still filled my ears. The carrier landed in the river, splashing up a few waves before disappearing without a trace.

This forest was different from the Primeval Forest they had entered before; it was clearly Rainforest. Stepping on the slippery moss, Mu Fan found a relatively flat rock and leaned against it. He needed to open the so-called mysterious package.

Hoping I had made the right choice, I silently prayed and opened the black backpack.

Metal box?

Pulling out the large metal box, Mu Fan nervously pressed the latch to open it.

"Two bottles of First Aid Spray, three standard Grade A antibiotics, one bottle of special Hemostatic Medicine, and one injection of Cell Matrix Growth Agent!"

Very good!

Seeing these medicines, Mu Fan finally felt relieved; his sense of smell had indeed been right.

After taking off his coat, some new tender red growth had appeared on his bloodied and mangled left arm, but that was far from enough!

He took a standard antibiotic, then raised the gleaming syringe and plunged it into his left arm.

Hiss!

The effects of this Cell Matrix Growth Agent are so powerful that my entire left arm is burning with pain, as if my blood vessels are on fire, and this fire hasn't even been released yet.

Five minutes later, the burning sensation gradually subsided, and now a thick layer of scab had formed on my left arm. I tried to move my fingers.

I can already exert a little force.

Efficient!

Mu Fan grinned, realizing he had made the right bet.

He reopened his combat pack and changed out of his clothes. A minute later, a boy dressed in a yellow-green camouflage combat uniform appeared.

Although the clothes I was wearing were quite heavy, the non-slip soles and the waterproof and breathable design made me feel quite comfortable.

Mu Fan Mu Fan put the Electronic Map and the remaining medicine in his combat backpack, and abandoned the backpack from which he had already taken out the items.

He weighed the gleaming dagger in his hand and looked up at the surrounding Rainforest.

This dagger is all I need!

The hair on the back of my head suddenly stood up – danger!

Mu Fan was half-squatting on the stone surface, suddenly pushed off the ground with his right hand and rolled on the spot.

A loud bang came from where I had just been standing, followed by a fishy smell.

Mu Fan turned around quickly and took a closer look.

It was a giant tree-colored python, over twenty meters long! Its body, coiled from the vines, was as thick as a water bucket. Its two lantern-like eyes were staring at Mu Fan, its scarlet tongue flicking in and out, and saliva dripping from its two fangs in its open mouth.

Sizzle, the saliva dripped down and corroded the stone surface, creating black pits.

Poisonous!

If a scholar specializing in reptiles were to see this, they would probably exclaim in surprise— Golden Ring Withered Wood Poison Python!

The striking golden stripes around its neck prove that this is a venomous python that is over fifty years old. Such creatures can exert a constricting force of more than ten tons, and their venom, if it comes into contact with the serum, will produce a unique toxic reaction, first damaging the nervous system and then corroding the entire body.

It's safe to say that if one is not careful, they might not even be able to find the remains.

This ferocious beast has a unified name in the Federation Encyclopedia—A-level ferocious beast.

Danger level: Extremely dangerous!

Above them are extremely dangerous S-class ferocious beasts and Calamity Class danger SS-class ferocious beasts.

If this were applied to humans, without the aid of weapons, people with a physical strength below level 20 would probably be instantly killed!

Mu Fan was completely unaware of all this, but his dangerous intuition told him that the creature before him was far more dangerous than he had imagined...

Whew, he gripped the dagger tightly in his hand and gently flung his backpack away with his right hand.

They bowed, as if facing a formidable enemy.

The giant python opposite him emitted a strong stench from its mouth, its yellow pupils fixed on Mu Fan, and its body began to slowly move and coil.

In the Rainforest, the boy encountered such a ferocious beast the moment he landed. There were no mechs, no guns, no darkness. This place was devoid of technology; all that existed was the instinct for survival and the will to live!

The examinee, with a small brown braid, landed on a soft layer of humus as the catapult launched him. After the hatch popped open, the examinee looked around curiously.

The eerie silence, punctuated by the occasional fluttering of birds across the canopy, startled the examinee, who then burst into laughter.

"Not bad luck, tsk tsk, this place looks safe, let's change our gear first."

"Now I can finally use my speed advantage! Watch me leave you all behind!"

The candidate picked up the combat kit and prepared to open it.

Flutter!

A metal crossbow bolt suddenly pierced his body, shooting out from his chest and embedding itself in the ground.

Blood spurted out.

Suddenly, he couldn't make a sound, his face turned bluish-purple, and blood foam dripped from the corner of his mouth.

His eyes were unfocused, and then he collapsed to the ground without a sound.

The boy, who was lively and energetic just minutes before, died the instant he landed in the Rainforest and exited the vehicle.

A dark figure jumped down from the tree, walked over the stiff body, and then reached out to pick up the unopened black "Mysterious Backpack".

The shadowy figure stared silently at the corpse on the ground for a while. "Since there are no restrictions... killing is what makes it interesting."

He then leaped quickly and disappeared from the area.

But he didn't notice that a few minutes later, a strange black patch suddenly appeared beneath the dead boy, and then a pair of jet-black feet appeared beside him...
