The panda's condition was getting worse. On the third day, it suddenly experienced cardiac arrest. Wei Huo put it down hurriedly and stimulated its heart with electric shocks under Lu Qiqi's suggestion. Fortunately, Wei Huo's God of Thunder Skill had reached level three, and his control over it had improved. That was why the panda's heartbeat was restored.
The panda's condition improved slightly after its heartbeat was restored. Perhaps the Perfect Heart Reliever Pill was working. The panda could now walk two steps on its own and could barely eat.
Wei Huo let out a sigh of relief. However, the panda's condition suddenly worsened the next day. The panda collapsed on the ground again in the morning. This time, the panda's Health Menu changed to 'Near Death'. The sudden improvement from before was just the final radiance of the setting sun.
Lu Qiqi was silent for a while and said to Wei Huo, "It might not be able to survive."
Wei Huo carried the panda and said, "Keep walking, don't give up hope!"
Wei Huo and Lu Qiqi continued walking. Three days later, they finally walked out of the desert.
The panda was still holding on, but it was in so much pain that Wei Huo almost wanted to end its life. However, Wei Huo was not qualified to do so.
For the first time, Wei Huo felt the pain of a long life. People or things that he was familiar with would leave him. The best way was to not get to know anyone or anything. As long as he was alone, he would not have to bear the pain.
Wei Huo and Lu Qiqi continued walking towards the south.
There was a mountain in the south that was so tall that it pierced through the clouds. Wei Huo called that mountain 'Aerial Peak'. The mountain was formed due to the movement of tectonic plates. The Central Continent was formed by the collision of continental fragments from all directions. Wei Huo was shocked.
The Aerial Peak was the tallest and most prominent mountain in the Central continent. That was why Wei Huo had been walking towards it ever since he discovered it.
However, that mountain was too far away from them. There was an ancient saying, 'Looking at the mountain in front of the horse runs to death.' That was Wei Huo's current situation.
However, they finally walked out of the desert. In the grassland, they found a stream and many living creatures. It was a good sign that they did not have to worry about living creatures and water sources.
However, the panda suddenly stopped breathing the next morning.
It was lying quietly by the stream. Its chest was no longer moving up and down. Wei Huo and Lu Qiqi did not have to check its breathing and pulse as they could see everything clearly from the Health Menu.
Species: Panda
Gender: Male
Status: Dead
This was the enemy that no creature in the natural world could defeat — Death!
Wei Huo originally thought that the panda would be able to live to the end of its life, but the sudden and fatal disease knocked it down. Wei Huo and Lu Qiqi were helpless, and it could only rely on itself. If it could not survive, no one could help it.
Wei Huo clenched his fists. All living creatures in nature had a limited lifespan, including himself. One day, he would die, but he was unwilling to die just like that.
"Let's go!"
In the end, Wei Huo shook his head and set off again with Lu Qiqi. The tiger was dead, and so was the panda. Who would be next? Is it Lu Qiqi or me?
Wei Huo looked at Lu Qiqi and asked, "Lu Qiqi, are you afraid of death?"
Lu Qiqi looked at Wei Huo, wondering why he kept asking that question. She replied, "I don't know what fear is. My mission is to test the game until I die."
She was really just an artificial intelligence, not a real human.
There were still five years left before her lifespan ended. I hope I can find the cave and the inheritance within five years!
Wei Huo continued leading Lu Qiqi forward for another three years. During these three years, Wei Huo became more and more impatient. However, he would comfort himself sometimes. 'Maybe God doesn't care about a small character like me? Maybe God just paused my time and will let me recover after the game is completed? '
It was only then that Wei Huo realized a serious problem. Everything he had was given to him by God. How could he resist if God wanted to take everything back? Wei Huo did not know what to do.
The answer was none!
Unless he became a God-like existence or surpassed God!
Wei Huo hid a small wish in his heart and continued his journey to find the cave. He would not give up until the very last moment.
During the last two years, Lu Qiqi's body started to have some problems. A condition called 'Dementia (Mild)' appeared in her Health Menu. She would sometimes stop in her tracks and fall into memories. She would not wake up unless Wei Huo shouted for her. The levels of her 10 basic skills started to decrease. Her basic skills were originally at level 5, but they were gradually reduced to level 3.
Although Lu Qiqi's appearance did not change much, her body started to show signs of aging. She seemed to be dying.
Wei Huo could not help but feel sad at the sight of Lu Qiqi. No matter what, Lu Qiqi had been with him for seven to eight years. Wei Huo felt bad as he watched them leave one by one. This was something that people with long lives had to experience.
Wei Huo suddenly thought of the title 'The Loner Neglected by God'. It was enough that he was neglected by God. Why did he have to give him the title of 'The Loner'? Wei Huo felt that it was too appropriate!
'I'm going to be alone after all! '
The journey to immortality was long, and loneliness was the only companion.
The panda died in the fifth year of his journey. Wei Huo stopped in his tracks in the eighth year of his journey.
Lu Qiqi had collapsed. She had 'Dementia', 'Osteoporosis', 'Deafness', 'Cataracts', and many other common diseases of the elderly. She could not follow Wei Huo any further.
At that moment, Wei Huo could only helplessly agree with God. 'As expected of God, he is so thoughtful.'
It seemed like God did not only consider Mood Value, but also the various symptoms of elderly people. These symptoms were also part of God's test.
Seeing Lu Qiqi getting closer to death, Wei Huo could not help but think, 'If Lu Qiqi dies, I will probably die soon.' 'Once God obtains Lu Qiqi's memory, he will definitely deal with me, a human who does not have time to stop. For the sake of the game's balance, God might erase my memory and everything I've gained in the past 100 years, or he might just kill me. No matter what the outcome is, I can't accept it! '
Wei Huo had always been watching other creatures die. How would he feel now that it was his turn? Wei Huo could not help but smile bitterly. He did not expect that after the panda, the tiger, and Lu Qiqi, it would finally be his turn.
Wei Huo built a wooden house and settled Lu Qiqi down. He waited for that day to come. The black crows landed on a dead tree branch outside the wooden house. They kept cawing as if they were counting down to their deaths.
