[Ding! Congratulations! The host has tamed a saltwater crocodile!]
[Saltwater crocodiles are incomparably ferocious and are the overlords of the nearby waters. Even a ferocious great white shark would have to avoid one!]
When Guo Li read the system’s description, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed in his heart, ‘Good lord, I only wanted to teach the crocodile a lesson, but I actually managed to tame it instead’.
The saltwater crocodile looked at Guo Li with a hurt expression. It opened its mouth and spat out a shining white treasure chest. The entire chest was golden white. The patterns on the chest were incredibly intricate and the entire treasure chest looked like a work of art.
Guo Li was stunned when he saw it. It was the first time he had seen such a beautiful treasure chest.
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has obtained a platinum treasure chest!]
[Note: Platinum treasure chests are an advanced treasure chest that can only be found once in a thousand tries! You can obtain even rarer treasures inside. Your luck is really too good!]
Guo Li jumped up and laughed, “Hahaha, my luck is too good. It’s actually a platinum treasure chest!”
Picking up the platinum treasure chest carefully, Guo Li rubbed his hands together and caressed the chest for a while. He slowly opened it while staring at it with bated breath.
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has obtained the [group contract skill] and [universal beast language skill]! Do you wish to learn these skills?]
“Woah! Two god-tier skills!”
Guo Li was once again shocked. Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he immediately took a look at the system’s description of the two skills.
The [group contract skill] allowed one to contract a large number of creatures. There was no upper limit to this number.
The [universal beast language skill] allowed its user to communicate with all kinds of creatures.
After going through the description, Guo Li became dizzy with excitement. After half an hour, he finally came back to his senses. This was too awesome!
The [group contract skill] could contract creatures in batches, with no upper limit. Of course, the prerequisite was that these creatures had to be willing to accept the contract.
The [universal beast language skill] allowed one to quickly learn the languages of all species. It would become extremely easy for him to communicate with creatures. Similarly, there was a prerequisite, which was that the target had to take the initiative to communicate with him.
If these two skills were combined, would the result not be heaven-defying? As long as he found some creatures that lived in groups and communicated with them, he would be able to gain their trust. He would then be able to contract them. In the future, Guo Li might even be able to control an army of creatures; commanding an army of thousands!
After learning two new skills, Guo Li naturally had to try them out. He turned his head to look at the tamed saltwater crocodile. Guo Li tried to communicate with it using the [universal beast language skill], asking it about the situation underwater.
After communicating for a while, Guo Li learned that there was a kind of sea snake which lived in groups underwater. They were very powerful and difficult to deal with. However, the saltwater crocodile was the overlord of this area and often ate those sea snakes as food so, if Guo Li was willing, the saltwater crocodile could make those sea snakes his slaves and let him order them around.
When Guo Li realized the benefits of this plan of action, he immediately instructed the saltwater crocodile to look for those sea snakes. Once he contracted them, they would all become his slaves!
The saltwater crocodile let out a few low grunts and entered the water. Not long after, there was movement in the water under Guo Li’s feet. Sea snakes soon started poking their heads out of the water one after the other.

If a person with a phobia of snakes witnessed this sight, they would have suffered a major heart attack.
Guo Li also believed that he had been very lucky. Fortunately, he had brought along the calabash brothers and Wukong, and had not run around the swamp forest rashly.
If he had been caught by these sea snakes, his life would definitely have been forfeit. It seemed that, on this small island, not only was there beautiful scenery, but also fatal dangers hidden in the dark. If he was not careful, he might lose his life on his own island.
Guo Li used the beast language to communicate with the snakes. At first, these snakes were not willing to sign a contract with Guo Li. The group contract skill required the snakes to sign a contract with him voluntarily, so he could not force them to sign the contract directly. However, the saltwater crocodile coerced the snakes, and they eventually succumbed to the tyranny of the human and crocodile duo, signing the group contract with Guo Li.
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has signed a group contract with the sea snakes. You have gained the ability to share vision with the snakes!]
Guo Li’s eyes lit up when he read that!
Vision sharing?!
Guo Li could not wait to try [vision sharing]. The very next moment, countless images appeared in his mind, like watching security footage from multiple CCTVs on several monitors, but clearer and more immersive. It was as if he possessed countless pairs of eyes.
The snakes’ vision could be viewed by Guo Li. He could even zoom in and focus on a particular image, depending on his needs. The various scenes underwater and above the water in the swamp forest could all be viewed by Guo Li.
“F*ck, vision sharing is too awesome! It’s equivalent to me installing countless CCTVs on this island.”
The most awesome thing was that Guo Li could order a sea snake to follow and observe his chosen target.
The vision sharing could be maintained at all times. Somehow, the countless bits of information and pictures did not affect Guo Li’s normal life. Everything was the same as before, just that he had gained the ability to see through many eyes.
With a wave of his hand, the sea snakes retreated. Guo Li asked Big Baby to finish preparing the meal. At the same time, he set up a bonfire and made preparations to start roasting the fishes. Everyone else busied themselves setting up a temporary residence for Guo Li. Although it was simple, it would shelter him from the wind and rain.
Soon, the seafood feast was ready. The delicious seafood whetted Guo Li and the others’ appetites. The dozen of them, including Wukong, sat around the bonfire and ate heartily. The saltwater crocodile looked at Guo Li with tears in its eyes.
Seeing this, he casually threw over a cooked big crab to the saltwater crocodile and watched it eat the crab. It looked at Guo Li with sparkling eyes. It had never tasted such a delicious crab before.
Guo Li patted the saltwater crocodile’s big head and said, “Go and catch some crabs. I’ll cook another pot for you.”
The saltwater crocodile immediately dived into the water and went off to catch crabs for Guo Li. After a while, it came back with a lot of crabs in its mouth and handed them to Guo Li. It then dived into the water again and went back and forth a few times. Soon, a second large pot of crabs was cooked.
The roasted fish was also done. Every single one of them was crisp and alluring. The grease that fell on the bonfire made sizzling sounds. After taking a bite, his mouth was filled with the fragrance of fish.
Sea fish were different from freshwater fish. The more grease there was, the sweeter it would be. There were also fewer fish bones. After taking a big bite, one would be extremely satisfied.
Guo Li ate two roasted sea fish, one of which triggered a [god-grade roasted fish] effect which increased his strength by 5 points. Guo Li’s strength attribute had now reached 15 points. He was already a Hercules among humans, able to lift a rock weighing more than 200 pounds with one hand.
After eating and drinking his fill, Guo Li returned to the temporary shelter and lay down. Under him was a bed of dried moss, which felt soft and comfortable.
He had a shelter, a fire, and a comfortable “bed” to rest out in the wild. This was good enough. The rest of the group found a dry spot and lay down to sleep.
