Chapter 1341: Chapter 518_2
However, on that world, the living beings wielded forces that required Zhou Tian to be vigilant, but when it came to close combat, up until this moment, Zhou Tian had never encountered a living being that could match him as an opponent. In fact, the main reason Zhou Tian was able to thrive in that world was precisely because, with his relatively strong close combat ability, he repeatedly ambushed those living beings and succeeded.
At the moment, if the massive living being chose to face Zhou Tian using other abilities, to be honest, Zhou Tian did not have full confidence in guaranteeing he could withstand the opponent’s attack. However, since the living being had decided to engage Zhou Tian in close combat at this time, in this circumstance, Zhou Tian naturally felt a bit more confident in himself.
Zhou Tian might indeed be inferior in terms of rule-based abilities compared to the living beings of this current world, but when it came to close combat ability, he absolutely refused to believe he would lose to any living being from this world. After all, even though Zhou Tian was not solely focused on close combat, as a Monster, all his close combat attributes were strong. With his physical quality, he would not be weaker than any other combatant of the same strength level.
If Zhou Tian was facing a dinosaur at that moment, then he was essentially a humanoid tyrannosaur. While most living beings in this world may have feared that living being’s close combat ability, Zhou Tian would not even consider taking it seriously. When that living being charged at him, Zhou Tian did not hesitate to show him a lesson with his own strength at that moment.
As a result, when Zhou Tian saw the dinosaur ready to engage him in close combat, he was not afraid of his opponent’s performance. On the contrary, filled with confidence in his own close combat ability, upon seeing the living being’s actions, Zhou Tian did not think twice before immediately confronting him head-on. freewebnøvel.com
Since the dinosaur wished to fight in close combat, Zhou Tian was not opposed to comparing their abilities to see whose was stronger. Based on his own attributes, Zhou Tian did not believe there was any living being in this world that could surpass him in close combat.
Only...
"Snap!"
"How is that possible?"
When Zhou Tian decided to engage the dinosaur in close combat, he had essentially anticipated many possible scenarios in his mind. However, even as he contemplated various outcomes, the one thing he did not expect was to be completely overpowered and flung away with a single swipe from the dinosaur, given his attributes.
Zhou Tian naturally found that result unacceptable. After all, when it came to close combat ability, he was stronger, if not equally matched, with the Deities. Yet, with his god-level close combat attributes, the fact that he was caught off guard in combat with the dinosaur was an outcome he simply could not accept.
While Zhou Tian found the result of the fight hard to accept, the dinosaur would not stop its actions for any reason.
After successfully swiping Zhou Tian away, the dinosaur quickly followed up with other actions.
Merely repelling Zhou Tian could not have been the dinosaur’s goal; with such a massive body, the dinosaur was strong, but the amount of food it consumed was also substantial. It’s likely that its voracious intake, while contributing to its formidable strength, also led to a tremendous food requirement.
In other words, if an average living being needed a certain amount of food, then this dinosaur might need a hundred times more. Even with its large size, securing enough food every day must be difficult. This was despite the fact that the meat of living beings in this world contained a lot of energy. Otherwise, it would be like trying to sustain a Tyrannosaurus on Earth without human intervention, which would likely lead to starvation if let loose in the mountains.
Thus, while it’s unlikely that the dinosaur would starve in this world, it was probably hungry most of the time. In such a state, any living being that caught its interest, even a rabbit, would undoubtedly be something the dinosaur would try to devour.
Given the dinosaur’s circumstances at the time, it was easy to guess that any opponent it could defeat would be relentlessly pursued as food. Having gained the upper hand in the initial confrontation, the dinosaur now regarded Zhou Tian as its meal, and under those circumstances, how could it possibly stop attacking him?
There was nothing surprising about the outcome; while Zhou Tian was still in disbelief about being repelled by the dinosaur, it had already seized the opportunity to charge at him, opening its massive jaws and biting towards Zhou Tian.
Given the dinosaur’s performance at that moment, had Zhou Tian not handled it well, he could very well have been bitten to death.
Of course, even if Zhou Tian was no match for the dinosaur, there was no way he would let it finish him off so easily. As the dinosaur lunged at Zhou Tian with jaws wide, he almost instinctively dodged at that moment. And with Zhou Tian’s speed, when the dinosaur snapped down, it naturally missed him entirely.
