"Hey! That little brat is asleep!"
"What do we do now? The plane can't be started anymore, and it's hard for us to get any further clues here. How are we supposed to find the Fountain of Life?"
"I'm more concerned about how we're going to get back. Didn't anyone think about this when you came over?"
A few people crawled out from the cabin and gathered outside, whispering. The table was close to a narrow window, and the plane was positioned next to it. Everyone slipped out through the slightly ajar window, trying not to wake the little giant inside the room.
The sky had no stars and no moon, appearing overly monotonous. However, the night sky here was not pure black but a deep blue. Despite the absence of any light source, there was still a faint glow and visibility in the darkness.
Bai Yujing said, "Everyone, don't panic or rush. This Merlin's Staff should be the key to opening the entrance; we just don't know how to activate it yet. So we need to learn more about this world!"
"Is there anyone here who understands Lilliputian Language?" Bai Yujing looked around at the others.
Bivis immediately replied, "I understand Lilliputian Language, but I can only read the text. I don't know how to pronounce it, so I can't communicate normally with the people in this world."
Emma looked at Bai Yujing and said, "I only know some simple common phrases and dialogues that Ian taught me before!"
Bai Yujing nodded, "Yes, I heard their conversation while we were eating earlier. Tomorrow, the male head of this household will go into town for market day. I estimate that they will use a Donkey Cart to take things into town. At that time, we can hide in that Donkey Cart and go into town with them."
Shen Fei immediately said, "Aren't there more giants in town? We would be easily discovered; we'd be done for!"
Bai Yujing frowned and replied, "If you're afraid of dying, why did you come here? You've been complaining all along. You can stay behind if you want; those who are willing to follow me can get up early tomorrow morning and go into town with this household's male head."
"If you don't want to go, just stay here!"
Shen Fei's face turned angry: "You... fine! I'll go with you tomorrow!"
Bai Yujing nodded: "Since we've decided to go together, let's not bring up any other excuses. Right now, we're all in the same boat; no one can run away from here. We can only work together to achieve our goal. If anyone causes trouble later on or complains again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Everyone tidied up a bit and decided to sleep in the cabin for the night. The plane was no longer usable and could not be taken away, so it would have to be left here tomorrow.
Bai Yujing had some trouble falling asleep and continued to sit by the window, gazing into the distance. The large window felt incredibly spacious as Bai Yujing sat there. The area before him, which could only be considered an ordinary hillside for giants, appeared to him like a vast grassland.
Bai Yujing checked the Exotic Creature Hunter System and received a new notification. Looking at it, he saw it stated: "Discovered C-Class Strange Creature Giant Race. The giant race biological template has been added to the encyclopedia. Reward: 200 points!"
Bai Yujing had been waiting for a new mission to be issued but had not received one. He did not expect that the system would change to a direct reward mode for discovering Exotic Creatures. It was likely that the previous mission format was due to him still being in the novice phase.
Now that he had developed the Territory Panel, he had officially become an Exotic Creature Hunter, which meant he would receive rewards directly upon discovering Exotic Creatures. No wonder Bai Yujing had not been waiting for a mission release.
At this moment, with an additional 200 points, plus the previous 10 points, Bai Yujing now had a total of 210 points. He thought for a moment and immediately opened the Territory Panel to use his points to expand his territory.
He spent all his points at once, and Bai Yujing's territory area instantly increased to 22 cubic meters. He selected a piece of land beneath the window and immediately saw a patch of grass about half a meter tall gradually begin to fade away, disappearing until it formed a shallow pit.
The area within Bai Yujing's territory began expanding from one cubic meter, gradually growing larger until it resembled the size of a large living room. In the center stood a small Orange Tree, surrounded by weeds of similar height, giving off a magical vibe.
---------------
As dawn broke, Bai Yujing called out to everyone who was sleeping inside the plane, "We're leaving! Everyone grab your backpacks and get ready to board. There seems to be some movement in the room; the family should be waking up."
Everyone packed their bags, each carrying a large pack. Bai Yujing led everyone over to the window and tied a rope to a nail on the window before lowering it down.
"Be careful, come down one at a time!" Bai Yujing instructed those behind him.
At that moment, Bai Yujing suddenly remembered something and said to Bivis, "I think I forgot something; I'll go back for a moment!"
After returning to the plane, Bai Yujing quickly stuffed all remaining supplies into his space. At this point, his space had already expanded to 22 square meters. He gathered up the sleeping bags they had left behind, parachutes, two large bundles of rope, two boxes of supplies, and even removed the seat covers—all packed into his space. When he came out again, he grabbed an empty water bottle that had been drained by him and his companions.
After tossing it into his territory space, he pressed his hand on the fuel tank section and watched as the water bottle slowly filled up. Using this method, Bai Yujing drained all the aviation fuel from the tank. If it weren't for lack of space to accommodate this plane, he would have considered taking it with him as well.
"Ha, ah-choo!"
At that moment, the giant pushed open the door to the room, rubbed his eyes, and walked over to the Donkey Shed. He pulled the donkey out from the shed, tied the Donkey Cart and the Donkey together, and the Donkey let out a loud bray, its hooves scraping against the ground.
Then the giant placed several bags of wheat onto the Donkey Cart and prepared to set off. At that moment, Bai Yujing had just climbed down from the window and was running wildly toward the Donkey Cart. The Donkey Cart, which had originally been leaning on the ground at an angle, was now upright, making it more difficult to climb onto.
Bai Yujing felt as if running this distance was like crossing rugged mountains and dense forests. In half-meter-high weeds, Bai Yujing struggled forward and finally managed to grab a straw that Emma had thrown down just before the giant set off.
Everyone hid beneath the straw on the cart, concealing their figures to avoid being discovered by the giant. "Ian, why did you take so long to get here?"
Bai Yujing grasped a thick straw stalk and climbed onto the cart. At this point, the giant was already urging the Donkey to start moving, and the wheels began to roll. Bai Yujing lay flat on a large pile of straw.
"There are some important things we must bring along; we might need them later!"
Bai Yujing had never ridden in such a bumpy cart before and felt as if he were being jolted up and down on the weeds.
"This cart is really uncomfortable!" Hank said with a wry smile to everyone.
Bai Yujing looked around: "The gravity here seems much weaker than on Earth. Do you feel like your strength has increased significantly? You can jump higher too. Otherwise, after running this distance and climbing up here, bouncing around like this would have been unbearable for our bodies!"
"It really does feel that way!" Emma also noticed it!
