Chapter 342: Chapter 235 Looking for the Way Back_2
But this time, the two white pythons on his shoulder underwent a drastic transformation.
They each split into two, then four, eventually becoming eight white pythons, floating behind Chen Lun like a peacock spreading its feathers.
‘Indeed it works… This enhancement boosts my combat capability in regular state!’ he thought.
Chen Lun joyfully controlled the white pythons behind him.
But he soon discovered a downside; his attention was limited, and he couldn’t perform detailed manipulations. He could only simply direct them to tail, defend, and attack.
It was like a person’s ten fingers, agile and flexible, yet unable to type two completely different short stories on a keyboard at the same time.

...
It wasn’t because the fingers couldn’t do it, but because the human brain couldn’t manage it.
‘Even so, it’s still a decent gain,’ he thought.
Chen Lun was satisfied and deactivated the “regular state,” returning to his normal form.

Subsequently, he returned to the cabin but didn’t follow Arno’s advice to rest. Instead, he began a thorough search of the cabin, hoping to find some clues that might help him escape this place.
After all, every second now was burning through his sanity value, and Chen Lun could neither afford to waste time nor was he able to lie down peacefully.
The cabin’s furnishings were very simple; there weren’t many cluttered items.
Apart from the bed, table, chairs, and wardrobe, there were only some handmade household items.
Most of these items were made of wood and stone, which Chen Lun guessed were probably picked up by Arno from outside and made by himself.
Although rough and simple, they were also practical.
A moment later,
Chen Lun found a particularly unusual item in a wooden bucket in a corner.
He took it out, his expression slightly startled.
It was a beautifully crafted doll with white hair and a delicately cute face, but it was covered with dust, seemingly abandoned here for a long time.
[Miscellaneous – Girl Doll]
Item description: An ordinary toy, exquisitely crafted using wood and iron nails, then painted to represent a cute girl doll.
It seems to originate from a girl who deeply misses her brother.
‘Arno’s sister…?’ Chen Lun secretly surmised.
He turned the doll over, and on the exposed back of its puffy skirt straps, there were a few small words—
“Anna will always miss you.”
Chen Lun thought for a moment, then placed the doll back where he found it and continued searching the room.
After nearly half an hour more, he came up empty-handed.
‘It seems I still need to go out and see…’ he sighed internally.
Although Arno stressed that dangers lurked in the dark, Chen Lun could not just sit and await his doom.
Thus, with the silver staff in hand, he left the cabin.
He took a lantern out of the Blood Poem Ring, lit it, pulled down the windproof glass cover, and locked the brass clasp, then slowly walked into the darkness.
He had not gone far,
when suddenly,
Chen Lun felt his foot stepping on a sticky liquid; he lowered the lantern to see that the originally muddy ground had turned into a black swamp.
Looking back, the cabin and the campfire had disappeared, obscured by the surrounding darkness.
At that moment, a gust of wind howled by his ear.
Spiritual Intuition warned him, and he swiftly raised his silver staff.
Clang!
A tremendous force came from the staff, making Chen Lun stagger backwards uncontrollably, his palms tingling.
The shadow in front flickered as the whistling of the wind continued to attack.
Clang! Clang clang clang…!
The relentless assault surrounded Chen Lun, who transformed his staff into a silver umbrella to continuously parry, finding himself without any chance to counterattack momentarily.
But seizing this opportunity, Chen Lun used Peeking Eye of Fate and caught a glimpse of some information about the mysterious enemy.
[Son of the Ancient God – Didak!]
‘This creature again…?!’
Clang!
A surge of surprise had just begun to form in Chen Lun’s mind when it was abruptly cut off by a fierce vertical split.
As he retreated continuously, the silver umbrella transformed back into a staff form.
Bracing himself against the numbness spreading through his arm, Chen Lun threw an “Blue Ink” incendiary bomb and simultaneously cast the magic “Five Senses Perception.”
Boom!
The firelight suddenly leaped up, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
Chen Lun had no illusions that the incendiary bomb would easily kill the enemy; his goal was merely to restore his field of vision and attempt to discern the enemy’s appearance.
The specially modified incendiary bomb persisted for only a few seconds in this darkness before being extinguished by some mysterious force.
However, during this brief period, Chen Lun, with the help of the firelight and “Five Senses Perception,” captured a glimpse of the enemy’s appearance.
It was a pale “Insect Person,” approximately three meters tall, with two thick, barbed limbs planted on the ground, and large, long arms, the forelimbs resembling the scythe-like forelegs of a mantis, sharp and gleaming.
Its head bore two antennae and six pitch-black compound eyes.
‘Unlike the Didaks I’ve encountered before, this one clearly leans more towards a combat type, giving me a strong sense of danger. Killing it will likely be quite difficult… This isn’t just any ordinary contaminated creature!’ Chen Lun thought.
As shadows loomed around him, his Spiritual Intuition warned again, this time more intensely; he could even envision his own decapitation.
With a flick of his hand, Chen Lun continued to throw several “Blue Ink” incendiary bombs and immediately entered “Extreme State,” swiftly retreating.
