My Right Hand Allows Me to Merge Thousands of Races-Chapter 292 - 173: Senior Xiong Er! Sarnik Adventure Team! (Part 2)

Furry fur, black and white, round ears, black eye circles.

...Looks so familiar.

A creature simultaneously emerged in everyone's mind—giant panda!

Yes, this giant beast in front of us, its fur is identical to a panda, and its physical characteristics are basically aligned.

...But it's just too strong.

His whole body is covered with explosive devilish muscles, even his face is filled with corded muscles, looking fierce and evil, full of a violent aesthetic.

Would you believe it if I said he's a Panda People?

Anyway, I don't!

Pandas are supposed to be round, chubby, and cute.

However, this giant beast-like "devil muscle panda" in front of us, just by its appearance, makes everyone feel it's extremely savage!

Intimidating to behold.

A six-meter-tall Panda People, standing tall as a mountain, valiantly standing in front of everyone.

He also wears a bamboo hat, carrying an eight-meter-long, incredibly thick iron rod on his back.

This attire, this weapon, matched with his strong physique and muscles, is really giving a "kung fu vibe", like a highly skilled panda hero.

The visual pressure, the impact of the scene, is too strong.

Everyone momentarily dared not speak, fearing saying the wrong thing and angering this fearsome giant beast.

"Are you... an elder of the Iron-eating Race?"—a pleasant voice rang out.

In the end, it was Wei'Er who spoke first.

"Hmm? There's actually a little girl from the Elf Race here?"

The muscle panda seemed a little surprised, then he nodded and answered her earlier question:

"My name is Xiong Er, I left the tribe when I was young and haven't returned since, I'm just a nameless wanderer. How did you all end up here? And could you tell me what year and month it is now?"

"I am Wei'Er, nice to meet Senior Xiong Er." Wei'Er was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted politely, "It is now May 14, 4102 of the Fifth Era." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"4102..." Upon hearing this, Xiong Er's expression changed, he said in a deep voice, "I've actually been asleep for more than thirteen hundred years? I didn't expect to wake up to such a drastically changed world. My brother definitely thought I was dead, I wonder if he is doing well now?"

Upon hearing this, everyone felt very sympathetic to this elder.

Sealed for more than thirteen hundred years, having spent such a long era in solitude.

It's really very pitiful.

"Is your elder brother named Xiong Da?" Lu Xun pondered and asked, "To be honest, I once saw an exceptionally strong Iron-eating Race member in a small tavern of the Naga Race. I saw with my own eyes him defeating a former professional athlete in a strength competition."

"What?!" Xiong Er exclaimed excitedly, "Yes, my brother is called Xiong Da! Is he okay? Is he still with the Naga Race?"

Lu Xun answered his questions one by one and comforted him: "Please don't worry, elder, your brother will be fine. Once you leave the Rift, it will be easy to find him."

"Phew~"

Only then did Xiong Er breathe a sigh of relief, mumbling, "That's good, no problem then."

He then very gratefully said to Lu Xun: "Young man, thank you for telling me this. Rest assured, I will ensure you all leave the Rift safely."

At this sight.

Everyone was astonished.

Wow!

Scholar Lu made another contribution; he actually met the brother of Senior Xiong Er before, and through this, successfully bridged the gap with this big shot and gained the elder's trust.

...Previously, it was also him who first sensed the giant rock seal.

"Elder, could you tell us about your situation?" Beside them, Wei'Er politely inquired respectfully, "Why were you sealed here? Also, how much do you know about this Rift?"

She kept her posture very low.

Although the Iron-eating Race is a servant race of the Elf, not every Iron-eating Race member has to regard Elf as their master.

This Senior Xiong Er left his tribe when young, likely having not enjoyed much from the Elf Race, he absolutely doesn't have to show her any favor.

Moreover, the other party is a very enigmatic formidable person.

Regarding a powerful person, whatever race they are, you must have respect and be sufficiently courteous.

Besides, this place is in the Rift, an isolated place from the world.

The Elf Race, Human Federation, Undead Race... these backgrounds and backings are of no use here, possessing no deterrent power whatsoever.

If the other person didn't like them, he could completely wipe them out, destroy the evidence, and make them disappear.

So, Wei'Er was very polite, actively lowering her stance to negotiate with the other.

"Hmm... well, it's a long story."

Senior Xiong Er's eyes showed a reminiscing look, he sighed and said with emotion: "The Iron-eating Race is a communal creature. After leaving the tribe, I was very lonely, so while traveling the world, I also actively made friends."

"Until over thirteen hundred years ago, I found a group of like-minded comrades, and together we founded the 'Sarnik Adventure Team', aiming to achieve great things. Our adventure team's first undertaking was to head to the 'Brown Bay' of the Southern Continent to open up a large Rift."

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Wow...

This elder is actually a pioneer of the adventure team?

He voluntarily entered the Rift, not accidentally caught in it.

"But we were unlucky, as soon as we entered the Rift, the space fixing device malfunctioned, resulting in the Rift running away, we lost connection with the outside world, trapped in an isolated state. A series of accidents led us to fail before we even started." Senior Xiong Er sighed again, regretting the initial decision.

Everyone was speechless.

As pioneers, your adventure team was really unprofessional, right?

But this is understandable too.

After all, regarding Rift pioneering, the Human Federation's technical expertise is far ahead of the world.

Senior Xiong Er's adventure team was just a newly formed team, and who knew from where they bought the fixing device, estimating they bought counterfeit substandard products that malfunctioned on the first use.

In the Human Federation, once a Rift is captured, it's almost impossible for it to escape being conquered.

Because they are fixed in place, just like experimental subjects on an operating table, humans have ample time and opportunity to research, pioneer, and eventually conquer it.

But a fleeing Rift is very terrifying.

Like a fish that just got caught suddenly escaping the hook.

Once the fish dives into the sea, you can't find it again.

Senior Xiong Er's team had no supplies, no support, completely cut off from the real world, to get out, they could only conquer the Rift.

"Originally, losing support, we still had a chance to conquer the Rift. We came in eight of us, including three Saint King level powerhouses. But unexpectedly, at the critical point of battle, the strongest among us suddenly relapsed with a previous injury, thus... we lost." Xiong Er sighed again.

...That is truly unlucky.

However, what startled everyone was, even with a Saint King "disconnected," the adventure team still had two Saint Kings, and five King Levels.

Such a number of experts, could not conquer this Rift?

Hiss!!

Everyone gasped, feeling their scalp tingle and backs chill.

Fortunately, they didn't rashly enter directly.

Even those big shots couldn't handle it, they as rookies entering the palace would be like sheep entering a tiger's den, with no return.

"Why was the elder sealed then? What about your companions?" Wuer inquired.

Normally, the outcome of a pioneering failure is total annihilation.

But Senior Xiong Er didn't die, he has reappeared after being sealed for over thirteen hundred years.

Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Xiong Er smiled and explained:

"I was not sealed by enemy forces. Our Sarnik Adventure Team's captain, named 'Sarnik Reynolds,' was a Saint King level Rock Mage. After the pioneering failure, we intended to flee, but the Rift World was about to reset, leaving us nowhere to escape. In the critical moment, Captain Sarnik used Rock Magic to seal all of us."

"The effect of this sealing magic is similar to your human hibernation pod technology... ahem, just that it can't be timed for release, so we could only enter slumber, hoping that one day in the future, when the Rift is captured again, new pioneers would enter to rescue us. Fortunately, you appeared."

So that's how it is.

Everyone suddenly understood.

Turns out they sealed themselves!

This method is brilliant.

Failure in pioneering, seemingly a sure death.

Yet relying on the seal, managed to escape the world's reset liquidation, gaining a "second playthrough" opportunity... a genius idea!

"Are your companions still alive like you, elder?" Wei'Er caught on to the key point, her beautiful big eyes lit up, she quickly asked, "Are they here too?"

"Hahaha, they are all stronger than me, if I'm still alive, how could they die so easily?"

Senior Xiong Er laughed loudly: "Rest assured. Last time, we were only one step away from success, it was due to an accident that we failed. But this time, we will definitely succeed."

"Come on, follow me. I'll take you home!"
