The wind blows sand onto Adam’s face, Adam is lying on the sand in a huge desert. Adam’s mind is wide awake, but his body cannot move even a millimetre. Adam is lying right there like a dead body.
“Am I dead?” the thought appears in Adam’s mind as he tries to look around, but he can’t even move his eyeballs. Adam feels extremely hungry and thirsty, but he can’t move his body.
“It looks like I’m in hell.” Adam laughs at himself in his mind. “I don’t know if there are any demons in hell.” Adam continues to make fun himself.
All of a sudden, Adam feels his body starting to sink into the sand, but he can’t do anything. His hands start sweating, in his mind, he thinks that these are the last few seconds he will see of the world.
“Bang!” Adam feels a sharp pain in his back caused by falling and he is surprised that he is still alive. While he is still thinking about what may happen next, a cute sound of a creature interrupts him. Adam tries to look towards the direction where the sound came from, but he still can’t move.
More cute sounds appear around Adam, and he hears a sound of some kind of viscous liquid falling to the ground. Adam feels his clothes slowly becoming wet. and he feels ice cold when the liquid touches his back. Adam grinds his teeth so hard, there are even some cracking sounds coming out between his teeth.
Adam feels his whole body starting to freeze and his muscles start shaking because of the cold. Adam curls his legs into his body to get warm but it doesn’t work.
Suddenly, Adam realizes that he just moved his body, he quickly stands up to escape from the ice cold water and looks around immediately. Many cute little slimes are jumping around him and they look very happy. Their bodies are blue and squishy, Adam can even look through their bodies. But even though the slimes are cute and happy, Adam is still in a vigilant mood because he doesn’t know if all those cute slimes will take out a knife and kill him or not.
A little slime jumps out of the slime crowd towards Adam. Adam backs up immediately like a timid rabbit. All the slimes look towards Adam following the sound of his footsteps. Adam’s back touches the cold rock wall and his heart turns cold too. The cute slimes turn into evil demons in Adam’s eyes. Adam closes his eyes and squats down beside the rock wall. Tears start dripping down from Adam’s eyes.
A slippery creature touches Adam’s right leg. Adam starts shaking. The little slime looks up and wonders what Adam is worried about. Adam slowly looks down into the slimes' eyes. Adam suddenly feels the friendly gaze.
He suddenly realizes that he can move, which means he can speak too.
“Hello? Do you know where I am?” Adam asks in a very low volume.
“Kee! Kee! Kee!” The little slime jumps up high and speaks the language Adam doesn’t know.
More Kee sounds made by slimes climb into Adam’s ears. Adam turns himself around and sees a huge slime. The huge slime has a pair of cat ears on his head and a funny tiny hat that magicians would wear on Earth.
While Adam looks carefully at the huge slime, the huge slime is also observed by Adam. After a few seconds of silence, the huge slime pops out a reel of paper on the ground and leaves. Adam picks the reel up and puts it flat on the ground. It is a huge map of somewhere that is not on the Earth.
After going through it with his eyes quickly, Adam gets attracted by the title of the map “ The Map of West Smoke “. Adam looks at the little slime nearby, he pets the slime on the head a few times and stands up. After looking around, Adam walks toward the exit of the underground slime cave.
________________________________________
Adam walks out to the cave. He is back to the desert where he woke up. He opens the map and immediately finds the desert he is in. On the map, the desert takes up one-third of the paper. The desert is called Hunter’s Desert. Adam looks and is wowed by the landscape. The desert is full of white sand, with the occasional shimmering of golden sand.
Suddenly, Adam feels something is dragging him back towards the cave. Adam looks down and sees the little slime tugging on a corner of his pants. Adam looks at the little slime with a confusing gaze. The slime keeps dragging Adam as hard as he can, but Adam doesn’t move even a centimetre.
“ Stop dragging me!” Adam tries to act very seriously.
The little slime doesn’t stop, instead, he drags Adam harder. Adam bends his knees and looks at the little slime closely and says in a deep voice:” Stop dragging me please!”
The little slime starts jumping backwards after Adam finishes his sentence, Adam stands up and acts like an adult training a naughty kid.
“ KEE KEE KEEEEEE! “ The little slime says very urgently, but Adam doesn’t know what he is talking about. All of a sudden, Adam’s shadow is covered by a bigger shadow.
