CP Chapter 1

Matai

On the sunny, cloudless, and endless grassland, Lu Yu quietly lay behind a large rock.

He wears a grass ring weaved by himself on his head, and his body is tightly covered with a homemade grass coat.

This outfit let him avoid the hot sun, but it made him stuffy and sweaty.

And the reason he wronged himself to this point is to observe and avoid an incoming large group of beasts.

The air trembled slightly, and Lu Yu’s ears perked up.

Not a moment later, a loud rumbling sound came from afar and came nearer.

The grass trembled and sand rose off the ground, accompanied by low-pitched roars one after another. A herd of grey-brown mammoths with two sharp tusks, huge bodies, and thick woolly hair, rolled past slowly in a group. Lu Yu silently recited a sentence in his heart.

【Open panel】

As soon as the words fell, a light blue transparent electronic light screen, that only he could see, unfolded in front of his eyes.

Lu Yu fixed his eyes on the largest and strongest mammoth in the distance, and the aperture on the panel keenly captured the target, revealing a string of information.

【Mammoth (Leader): Land Melee】

【Threat Level: B】

【Chance Drop: C-Grade Storage Ring】

The dropped item turned out to be a storage ring!

Lu Yu swallowed his saliva and looked at the words storage ring eagerly.

Storage ring, no matter how big the space is, is the best. With this, he won’t need to weave a basket to carry things.

However, no matter how good things are, he can only watch.

Speaking of this, Lu Yu couldn’t help complaining again.

It doesn’t matter if he transmigrated to the primitive society, unknown if it is still on Earth, but the Goldfinger1cheat power/ability given to him turned out to be a game panel.

It’s not that this game panel is bad, on the contrary, this game panel is awesome. You can treat real animals like monsters in a game, and various magical items can be obtained by killing them.

But the problem is —

He’s just a normal human being. And the animals here are all real, he can’t beat the big ones, and can’t catch up with the small ones. With Just this physical fitness, how can he dominate this primitive era!

Lu Yu ground his molars, since he was given a Goldfinger, why not simply strengthen his physical strength, ah? Bastard!

———————————

Lu Yu, a native of China, is twenty-four years old this year. He is a chef by profession and specializes in imperial cuisine. He was invited to be a judge in a cooking competition before he was suddenly whisked away to this ghostly place.

In the middle of the competition, he tried a piece of beef with an extremely strange taste. Just as he was about to educate the timid little chef he suddenly fainted.

When he woke up again, he began his survival in the wild.

Lu Yu is a person who believes that once you have come, you will be safe2it means Since we are here, we may as well stay and make the best of it. So before he knows how to go back, he will temporarily suppress his fragile and collapsing emotions such as despair and fear in his heart, and strive to survive.

But this is reality. He has big thoughts and ideas, but unfortunately, his actions fell short.

On the twelfth day after passing through, he felt that he could hardly keep going.

The food is not the problem. As a cook, in this jungle with lush plants, he can always find something to eat.

What he feels insecure about is his safety. There are too many dangerous creatures. He even has to think twice about where he should sleep, whether in a narrow cave or a tall tree. Every moment he is afraid that his little white meat will become a dessert for others.

Fortunately, he hasn’t encountered any ferocious beasts head-on for the time being and occasionally hunts some smaller animals, such as hares, insects, fish, and so on.

These small animals, after passing through the game panel, will drop him some 【Little Red Medicine】【Antidote】. These two things can forcibly help him continue his life. 

But there are days when his luck will run out. Recently, because of the changing season, more and more beasts are coming and going here. and he has to find some places to hide to guarantee his own safety.

Today, he has the chance for mammoth shopping. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for a long time

On this piece of land, there happened to be a den of lions that lived not too far away.

Whether these mammoths, who came from afar, want to pass through this area, or plan to settle here, are bound to encounter the lions.

As the saying goes, when two tigers meet, one is bound to be injured3Chinese proverb means If it comes to a fight, someone will get hurt.. And as long as it passes through his game panel, no matter how it dies, it will leave a treasure chest that only he can see after its death.

Lu Yu plans to be the fisherman after the fight between the crane and the clam4a Chinese proverb that means when two parties are engaged in a battle that neither can win, a third party will most likely take advantage.

He had previously secretly aimed the game panel at the lion leader and the dropped item was a 【C-level Tomahawk】.

As long as he has this axe, he will have a certain ability to protect himself.

After Lu Yu watched for a while, as he expected, the mammoth legion in the distance encountered the aboriginal lion family.

Mammoths are huge, with their tusks alone more than a meter long. They are, pointed, and curved, and can easily poke a hole in their prey and pick it up. The combat effectiveness is very strong. But this mammoth family has a relatively small number of elephants, only five, while their rivals, the lion family, have a full twenty adult lions.

Although the size of the lion is not as big as the mammoth, they have flexible bodies and have a reasonable division of labor, where Some lions attract the mammoth’s attention, others are responsible for biting, and some go around to harass the mammoths.

The battle lasted for two full hours.

Lu Yu was almost bitten to death by mosquitoes while hiding in the rocks. But he didn’t dare to move for fear of being noticed by the sharp-eyed lion. If he does not actively participate in their racial war, then they probably will not bother with small shrimp like him.

As the sun was about to set, the battle finally ended with the mammoths leaving the body of one of their compatriots and fleeing.

The carcass of the mammoth was huge, and the lions enjoyed it happily.

Lu Yu looked at the golden treasure chest next to the mammoth with bright eyes.

The one who died was not the mammoth leader, but according to the rules he figured out, it would generally still drop the same item but that of a lower Class.

That is to say, in that treasure chest, there is very likely to be a D-Grade or E-Grade【Storage Ring】.

Even if none of the lions in his original plan were killed and the Tomahawk could not be obtained, Lu Yu is still very optimistic.

As long as there is something to gain, what kind of bicycle do you want5 is a popular term on the Internet, used to ridicule people who already have something and have gained a certain level of satisfaction, but still want more.

Now he just hopes that these lions will finish their dinner quickly and go back to sleep, otherwise in an hour, the treasure chest will disappear.

Lu Yu waited excitedly and anxiously.

He prayed to the Jade Emperor, Tathagata Bodhisattva, God, Jesus, and all the gods he knew in his heart over and over again. 

Perhaps a certain god and Buddha really heard these devout prayers. The lions, who had not yet finished eating, suddenly got up and ran away, as if they had received some sort of signal.

Sand rose off the ground, leaving behind the half-eaten body of the lone mammoth.

Lu Yu’s brows wrinkled, not happy but worried.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for lions to leave without eating enough. And there are no wild animals in this land that can threaten them. Even if it is a powerful mammoth, the lions will choose to fight rather than retreat.

Why would they leave so much meat behind and run away in a hurry?

Is it an unknown large beast?

Since the lions run away, should he run too?

But what about the alluring treasure chest lying out there in the open as attractive as a naked beauty…

While Lu Yu was still hesitating, a group of upright walking creatures suddenly stepped out of a jungle not too far away.

There were about thirty or forty of them, with animal skins around their waists, holding wooden sticks, and looking very menacing. Each one is about two meters tall, with disheveled hair reaching their shoulders, bronzed skin, and a strong body full of muscles.

Lu Yu’s eyes widened and he was taken aback.

Are they…… Savages? Or primitive people?

At this time, Lu Yu’s game panel was still open. When Lu Yu stared at these people, the aperture on the panel also followed Lu Yu’s gaze and locked on one of them.

A string of information appears on the panel.

【Matai Warrior】

Matai?

———————————

Lu Yu stared at these words and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

It turned out to be them!

Although Lu Yu has not studied primitive society, he still knew something about this race.

When he was looking for recipes in his great-grandfather’s study, he accidentally found a book called 《The Beginning of History》 and he glanced at it.

He remembered that the《The Beginning of History》recorded the following sentences: The Matai people are burly, six feet tall, brave and good at fighting, and invincible when fighting beasts.

If he has this physical quality plus his Goldfinger, then would he still not be able to walk sideways6 it means you do whatever you want and don’t have to care about any rules or what others think. in this primitive society?

The reason why Lu Yu remembered so clearly was not only because of this but also because of a fantastic event recorded later.

The 《The Beginning of History》 says that the Matai people have an extremely long life span and could live for thousands of years, but what is strange is that not only did they fail to reproduce a huge population, but they actually went extinct before the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Now he actually saw this magical race with his own eyes and if it wasn’t for the panel prompt, he would have really thought that they were savages.

So, he is still on the original earth, instead of transmigrating to another place, right?

So what to do, it’s not a suitable time for an ancient and modern cultural exchange. He’s afraid that he will be ruthlessly killed by the fierce Matai people as soon as he appears.

Forget it, this treasure chest is destined not to have any fate with him, he doesn’t want to throw his life away.

After careful consideration, Lu Yu decided to retreat immediately. It’s not that he doesn’t want to wait for the Matai people to leave before leaving, but he has long felt his current position to be unbearable, and he felt that from such a distance, the Matai would not notice anything. After all, they are still human, they should not be as sharp as beasts.

He turned off the panel, and with small movements, he pressed his hands on the ground, changed from lying down to squatting, picked up the small back basket placed next to him, carefully turned around, bent his legs, hugged his waist and took small steps, moving into the jungle.

One meter, two meters, three meters…

Seeing that there were only ten steps left before he could enter the jungle, there were suddenly some strange sounds, as if a leopard was spreading its legs and running wildly on the grass.

After listening carefully, this voice seemed to be coming from behind him…

Lu Yu’s heart trembled, and subconsciously, he tried to escape.

But before he could straighten up, a gust of wind passed by his ears and a black shadow flashed quickly.

Boom—

Two big, bare, and dirty feet landed in front of him.

Looking at the pair of feet that magically appeared in front of him, a layer of sweat gathered on Lu Yu’s back.

He can’t be so unlucky…..

He swallowed dryly. His eyes moved up tremblingly along the thick human legs blocking his sight.

Animal skin skirt, sunken mermaid line, strong pectoral muscles… With thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose, and a wide forehead, he has an upright face as if growing under the red flag7 It probably means that he has Chinese facial features.

———————————

This Matai man’s looks are quite in line with the aesthetics of modern people and are not at all like the other primitive people who resemble monkeys.

Lu Yu strangely relaxed a little.

He stood up, patted the mud off his grass skirt, raised his head, and showed a sunny smile to the wild man in front of him.

Since he can’t run away, then he must show a good attitude. Language may not work, but a smile has always been the universal language used to send goodwill throughout the ages.

Perhaps, he can also use some gestures?

While Lu Yu was still tangled, the man on the opposite side looked him up and down, and suddenly asked in a clear voice: “Who are you?”

“I…”

Just as Lu Yu was about to answer subconsciously, he reacted abruptly with a bewildered expression on his face.

Wait a minute.

This big brother, how can you speak?
