Chapter 88

Wearing the camouflage uniform, He Ping completed his outfit with the Kevlar bulletproof vest, cut-resistant gloves, military boots, and knee and elbow pads. He then put on the Kevlar helmet equipped with a tactical flashlight, night vision goggles, and protective goggles. After checking his entire outfit once again, he confirmed that he was fully armed. Next, he needed to choose and equip his weapons.

On his left shoulder was a high-end tactical combat knife, and on his right leg was a USP.45 tactical pistol. In his hands, he held a Steyr AUG-A2 assault rifle. The original scope had been removed and replaced with an M1913 standard Picatinny rail, and an ACOG (Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight) with BAC (Bindon Aiming Concept) functionality, which could automatically zoom from 1x to 4x, replaced the original 1.5x Swarovski optic. Additionally, an M203A1 grenade launcher was attached.

The Steyr AUG-A2 assault rifle, which uses 5.56mm NATO ammunition, was designed and developed by Steyr Mannlicher GmbH & Co KG, a subsidiary of Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG. This gun has a high accuracy and low recoil due to its bullpup design, making it shorter than most assault rifles. It is well-suited for He Ping's arm length, and the extensive use of engineering plastics has reduced its weight, allowing He Ping to shoot with one hand.

This gun is quite interesting, with a design that can be described as cool and stylish. The original AUG assault rifle was first introduced in 1977, and at that time, its appearance was almost like a space weapon, possibly even more advanced than the guns in science fiction movies. Even now, and even decades later, the AUG's design is still widely praised, making it a classic assault rifle.

One of the most significant features of the AUG series is the quick-change barrel, which can be replaced even during combat to adapt to different situations. With a short barrel, it can function as an assault rifle or a submachine gun, and with a longer barrel, it can serve as a light machine gun. Users can choose whether to charge forward and spray bullets or provide suppressive fire from the rear based on the current situation.

After selecting his weapons and ensuring all equipment was in good condition, He Ping chose a newly opened door. The door had no name, only indicating a civilization level of four, the same as the main world. The name would only be determined after entering. He Ping looked outside and saw nothing unusual, just a typical wilderness. Taking a deep breath, he stepped through the door.

The wilderness was vast, and inside the door, He Ping's field of vision was limited, so he had no direct sense of its size. However, when he truly arrived, he felt the vastness of the world. In the world of concrete and steel, human vision is narrow, but now, He Ping finally felt the insignificance of humans.

Insignificant... insignificant... insignificant...

Yes, insignificant. Despite the poetic sentiment, the only feeling in He Ping's heart was insignificance. A few hundred meters away, a gigantic beast with eyes the size of a soccer field, a deep red color, was staring at him. Compared to this beast, which was larger than a town and almost the size of the entire Green Mountain District, He Ping was less than an ant. Yet, the beast seemed to have noticed him.

A cold sweat trickled down He Ping's forehead as he repeatedly shouted in his heart: "Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! What the hell is this?! A living creature? How is that possible? How can it be so big? Godzilla would be a little mouse in this thing's eyes! How can I deal with it? My strength can't even pluck a hair from this thing, and guns? Don't make me laugh! I don't even have the strength to tickle it! When will the system upgrade to allow the use of nuclear weapons?!"

The giant beast, which looked somewhat like a brown bear, continued to stare at He Ping. During this time, He Ping kept praying: "Don't see me! Don't see me! Don't see me!" However, with no religious beliefs, He Ping received no divine protection. In less than half a minute, the beast slowly stood up, let out a deafening roar, and began moving toward He Ping.

"Damn!" He Ping only had time to say these two words before he turned and ran, even discarding all his carefully prepared equipment back into the sample room, leaving only his boots and camouflage uniform. He used both sprinting and flashing, and even tried stealth, but it seemed to have no effect. The beast continued to chase him, and the distance between them was closing. Helpless, He Ping prepared to return to the tower. If such a creature guarded this place, he would have to abandon this world.

But at that moment, he saw another giant beast appear in another direction. This new beast looked somewhat like a crocodile and was about the same size as the brown bear. Seeing this, He Ping was quite depressed. What was this world? He hadn't even seen a single human, and already there were two such exaggerated beasts. If these beasts were common, other creatures would have been extinct long ago! Uh, could the humans here be that big too?

However, with two giant beasts, He Ping felt a glimmer of hope. If these two beasts fought each other, they would surely be weakened, and he could hide in the tower and watch the fight. Even if things didn't go as he hoped, the worst outcome would be the same as before—abandoning this world. With this thought, He Ping no longer hesitated and began running toward the other beast.

He Ping's speed was fast, but the beasts' speed was average. Given their massive size, the gravitational force on them was enormous, and even with their incredible strength, they couldn't move quickly, only slowly advancing. However, their size was so large that even a small movement covered a considerable distance for He Ping. He had to run with all his might to keep the beast behind him from catching up.

Soon, He Ping was not far from the crocodile-like beast and finally saw its full appearance. However, this sight almost made him stop in shock, nearly being crushed by the beast behind him. He saw that on the back of the crocodile-like beast was a city!
