CHAPTER 1“It hurts so much?” Su Bai struggled to open his eyes. It felt as if his head had been hit by a hammerAfter resting for a while, he started to observe his surroundings. All he saw were brown fur pelts surrounding him. [This is a tent made of animal hide (Teepee)? ]. Su Bai immediately sat up and lifted the tent flap to go outside. The moment he looked around, he froze in shock. Before him was an open area, surrounded by tall trees, with unknown plants covering the groundNo way… where am I?” Su Bai was a bit dazed as he frowned and tried to think carefully. His eyes suddenly widened as he said in a trance, “I remember finishing a novel and deciding to go hiking to relax. Then, I accidentally fell off a cliff…” Hold on… am I at the bottom of the cliff?” Su Bai blinked, looked up and glanced around, but did not see any cliffs. Moreover, the nearest mountain was quite far away. He estimated it to be over ten kilometres awayLooking down at his outfit, it was still the sportswear he had worn when leaving home. Only difference was it was now torn and tattered, like that of a beggar.Carefully scanning his surroundings, Su Bai noticed signs of human activity and came to the conclusion, [This must be a camp. It’s just that there’s no one here at the moment…]“Was I rescued by someone?” Su Bai relaxed a bit. [Well, as long as I’m not alone on some desolate mountain, it‘s fine.He walked around the camp, observing attentively. He saw a half-burnt bonfire. Judging from the layout, the tent he had been lying in was on the outskirts of the campNo way. They just left an injured person on the edge of a camp like this?” Su Bai muttered, his expression growing more solemn Walking further deeper, after rounding a few trees, he discovered more traces of human activity. But this only made him feel uneasy What’s going on? There are bones everywhere and only Teepees?” Su Bai stood, blankly staring at the tents in front of him. He could see about thirty tents ahead. He saw people, but their outfits were made of animal pelts or skirts woven from leaves. Are they Cannibals? Or just Primitives?” Su Bai exclaimed. Jiliguala…” “Lexingni…” Hearing the sound Su Bai made, those people looked over and shouted something. But he couldn’t understand a thing. It was a tone he had never heard before, not Chinese or any other languages from countries like England, France or Germany… It also didn’t sound like any other Chinese dialect. The intonation was completely different. Just where am I?” Su Bai let out a powerless cry in his heart. Tap tap tap…” A man came up to Su Bai, gesturing and talking. Zimimoshenjiaoqini, linaziblai… ” …” Su Bai’s pupils contracted. Only when the man approached did he realise how strange this man looked. Black short hair, a square face, and dark yellowish skin. The man was around 1. 8 metres tall. In terms of normality, these were relatively normal. The abnormal parts were the pair of fifteen centimetres long black horns on his forehead, the sharp fangs filling his open mouth, and his bright brown pupils. [Wait… there shouldn’t be people like this on Earth, right? ] Su Bai’s expression changed slightly. He could tell the man’s horns were not some kind of cosplayHold on… could it be that I’m not on Earth anymore? ] This thought frightened Su Bai. But if he considered it, then everything made sense! [The unintelligible language, the differences in species…] Wujianqunidaiwo.” Seeing Su Bai in a daze, the horned man grabbed his arm and led him deep into the camp. …” Su Bai didn’t resist. He calmed down and observed his surroundings. He noticed that the deeper they went, the taller the tents became, with more people and more bizarre Humanoids. There were people with cat ears on their heads. Some had wings on their backs. Some had Snake tails connected to their bottom Of course, there were also Pure Humans like himself. It was just that they had different hair and eye colours: some green, some red… [What kind of world have I been transported to! ? ] Su Bai inwardly cried out in distress, his mind spinning rapidly, trying to figure out a way to escape. Tap tap tap…* After walking for about two or three minutes, Su Bai was brought to a massive tent. The tent was surrounded by people of all ages – old, middle-aged and young. Various sounds of clamoring came from inside. The Shaman can’t hold on for much longer. A few more days at most. We must find a new Shaman!” .” Everyone in the Tribe has already been tested! Not a single one has the talent to become a Shaman“Then what should we do? If we lose our Shaman, our Tribe will be doomed! I don’t want to become a Wanderer!Isn’t there still one person left?” You mean that Wanderer we picked up three days ago?” Yes, him! Let him try! He’s the only one left who hasn’t been tested.” Shaman, what do you think?” “Bring him in.” Tap tap tap…*. Su Bai heard the tent quiet down. Then the tent flap was lifted and a man with a scar on his cheek, with nothingcoveringhis barebody

In the bustling city of Lagos,where life moved fast than imaginable and hearts stayed guarded, Ada and Tunde met in the mose unluckiest of place a traffic jam. Ada a polished lawyer from a wealthy family, was stuck behind a broken car to see what was going on. That was when Tunde, a roadside mechanic was with grease stained overalls and a warm, confident grin,approached her. "Need help madam?`` he asked , wiping his hands on a rag. Ada eyes him warily. Everything about him screamed differently his accents,his clothes,his casual tone. But with no better option in slight,she stepped aside. Tunde got to work swiftly .in minutes,her car was purring again. You are good ,she admitted , surprised. Not as good as your smile ,he replied,and walked away before she could think of a comeback. She drove off, but for the first time in a long while ,she did so smiling. They began crossing paths regularly at the suya stand, in the market,even at her favorite bookshop where he delivered parts of
