Sanhe's outskirts.
It was very creepy when you left the urban area because it was very desolate. Jiang He grabbed the dagger in his hand and started to carefully walk. The government only insured safety for the urban area, and since the suburbs are too large, there will always be something dangerous around.
Surrounded by thriving woods and weeds, the sun s.h.i.+mmered through the foliage, leaving a bizarre shadow on the ground, it looked very eerie. Jiang He pinched the dagger in his hands even tighter.
There was a farm here before, but it was affected by radiation, so now there is many rats who constantly breed and cause chaos and destruction. Jiang He heard about rodents, but he hasn't exactly seen what a fierce rat looks like before
"Where's the mouse? Underground?" Jiang He was looking all over the ground for them.
"-Puchi-" I heard it. Jiang He's ear started fretting.
After his dark energy enhancement, he was much stronger than before, so could clearly feel the beast far away from him, even it's whistling sound.
"Brus.h.!.+" Jiang He suddenly turned around, and saw the shadow in front of him getting bigger and bigger.
It's too late to hide!
Jiang He turned around, and tightly clasped the dagger with his hands while fiercely stabbing.
"Zheng!" There was a cras.h.i.+ng of sharp metal and a large boom as Jiang He was knocked back 45 meters, he tried to firmly stand.
"What the h.e.l.l is this?" Jiang He looked back with pain, and was shocked.
That shadow that attacked was a wild boar with a full height of half a meter. It looked very strong, but his sharp eyes seemed completely different to the wild boar….
"Wait, is it……..?" The air suddenly poured down the river.
A black rat! This is the evolution from a mouse, it's the fierce beast.
The original pet.i.te mice became such a beast after it's mutation, this horrifying variation had such a powerful breeding ability, these mice are a very scary species! However, how can it change so much? Even with it's mutation? The body shape became this much larger?
Do you think you are a sponge?
Jiang He was mostly shocked that this black beast could actually deal him a blow with no injuries.
It won't break? It's so hard, ah!
Jiang He's heart retreated, he is willing to take risks, but he doesn't want to die. The weakest black rat animals have copper skin, should he fight with that instead?
Jiang He would like to retreat, but the black rat wouldn't give him any open s.p.a.ce to leave.
The black rat rushed and leaped in again as he swung.
"d.a.m.n."
The river hid his embarra.s.sment, and the dagger's defense wasn't very good, but he couldn't beat the black rat beast. He was. .h.i.t by this guy several times, so his ribs almost snapped.
"Disadvantaged, ah…."
After beginning to panic and be confused, Jiang He finally calmed down. This cannot go on like this! Running isn't a option, beating this black mouse beast is a matter of life and death.
I can't run, I need to think of ways to get rid of you!
Jiang He's eyes turned toward the beast.
Looking over the black mouse's body, he tried to find it's weakness. The head? The sharp would surely crush the dagger in pieces. Limbs? No, there are sharp claws. Jiang He's eyes searched for a moment, then he looked at the belly of the black rat, That seems like the softest place. Let's try it,
Jiang He attacked while full of energy.
"Boom!"
He clashed with the black mouse again, so Jiang He had to avoid several times in a row. The black rat was ready to kill him, so Jiang He had to break it's strong intention to kill.
"Brus.h.!.+ Right now!"
The dagger suddenly spiked out.
The black beast jumped into the hair, and apparently didn't expect it had to defend its belly and escape. Jiang He suddenly erupted, then the dark energy blessing of the dagger cut through the air like a blur, fiercely piercing the black beast's belly.
"Puchi." The attack was neat and tidy.
The black rat's paw reflected like a halo from the sun. It's murderous eyes quickly calmed down as Jiang He twisted and pulled out his dagger.
"Poof!" Blood! The black rat beast then fell to the ground.
"Chirp!"
The black had a huge hole in its stomach, to deal with this kind of low-level mutation you must use the most effective dark and evil energy called Xiong shou. It was powerful because it stopped healing. It could only painfully struggle on the ground. It was scratching a full half a meter into the ground, it was very scary.
Jiang Had looked into the distance, secretly speechless. This is the strength of a low-level evil Xiong?
It's really powerful!
After more than ten seconds, the black mouse stopped moving.
"Om -" Silent fluctuations suddenly flashed.
A faint energy floated out of it's carca.s.s and into Jiang He's body, it was the purest kind of dark energy! As the black rat beast died, Jiang He directly absorbed a small part of it.
Jiang He looked at his communication device's records.
"Dark energy: 10.2%."
His dark energy rose by 0.2%, which means that if Jiang He kills five of these powerful black mice, his dark energy level would increase by 1%.
Jiang He summed up with one sentence, "Way too difficult!"
Ordinary weapons couldn't hurt the black mice because of their copper skin. The teeth and claws are very sharp too, if Jiang He was scratched he would probably die from just that. It's only weakness is its stomach.
"Hiss-"
Jiang He moved slightly.
He won, but his body was almost disintegrated. Even though he wasn't clawed, more black mice beast collision's would be very scary.
Hunting beasts for the first time is very dangerous!
He became terrified from the very dangerous wild beast since this battle. It is just a low-level black mouse beast with 10% dark energy, even the students knew that this kind of fierce beast could kill you if you made a mistake.
No wonder the school doesn't advise students to go out in the field!
"Should I go back?" Jiang He hesitated, but he soon became firm.
He wasn't eligible, but others might be. He was two years late then all of the other students, so he wanted to catch up to them as fast as possible. Hunting beasts was the only way!
Since I could get rid of the first black mouse, I can kill a second! It might be possible to become stronger by summing up my experience of constantly fighting.
Jiang He suddenly felt the floor tremble as he was thinking about his previous battle.
Again? Jiang He was surprised.
He lacked the physical strength now, so if the black mouse came again, he would be dead without hesitation. Jiang He quickly backed away, and left.
When he left, he subconsciously looked back at the river. The souls are someone running at him!
A bucket-like stout figure suddenly sprang up from the ground, opened it's Xuepenkou, and swallowed all of the black beasts, then went leisurely back into the ground.
That is a horrible variation snake!
Jiang He's broke out into cold sweat after seeing that.
That location…. there is a half-meter wide pothole, but Jiang He wasn't that concerned about it, that is the suburbs normal state.
Jiang He thought about it while he was scared.
It seemed safe to hunt the fierce beast, but he wasn't paying any attention to the beast itself, but also the surrounding environment. There might be other potholes on the ground that he couldn't see that haven't closed.
"Because of the blood-stimulating black rats?" Jiang He thought.
A moment later, Jiang He saw another black mouse alone.
"It's out in the open."
Jiang He thought this was a great opportunity, so he hit it using Xiong shou and killed it on the spot.
"Om-"
A 0.2% dark energy increase!
The black rat beast died, and the river water slowly retreated. A strange rat-like fierce beast appeared on the sh.o.r.e. The most shocking thing was, it was actually upright!
The fierce rat-like beast looked around, but it didn't see the enemy as it quickly dragged the body of the black mouse away.
Biao slipped, then disappeared without a trace.
Jiang He was stunned.
He thought it would be originally a variations of snakes, but it's just….
"Yellow animal, it's a weasel mutation Xiongshou!"
Before he came to see the vicinity of the information, he should only meet the conditions, although the beast was fiercely aggressive, it was also cunning, it was his favorite Jianlou!
A terribly fierce beast.
The cautious Jiang He added on another point. Homicide before hunting is the most dangerous, it now seems like his whole being back is the most important!
This field is not the place for most people.
Time flied
One day, Jiang He would hunt all the black animals near there.
Despite his cautiousness, he was still found out by the yellow-skin beast, so he killed it while traveling a kilometer and running away at the same time. The rivers have been more careful after that.
Fortunately, although hunting the fierce beast was dangerous, the harvest was exceptionally rich. His dark energy increased by 3%, reaching a total of 13%!
What was the risk/reward ratio like?
Jiang He was very satisfied. If he increased at 3% a day, he could reach 100% in a month. That cultivation pace would surely stand out.
The sky is now dark so Jiang He headed back.
Most people will be affected by nighttime because of their vision. While the body is reduced in all aspects, many evil and fierce beasts come out at night. Everything out at night was strong, so the mortality rate by the river was very high, so no one wanted to be around there at night.
Going back to the road was fairly smooth, and you could see that the Xiongteng rivers were being carefully avoided.
However, just as left the fierce danger zone, he heard a sound from the river, "Help!"
Someone's in trouble!
Jiang He moved. From afar, I saw a little girl wearing a school uniform run to the other side in a panic, followed by the black beast jumping after her while on the verge of tears. She obviously wasn't experienced, so the first encounter from a Xiongshou got this kind of reaction.
"Brother, help me." The little girl noticed Jiang He.
Jiang He glanced quickly, and noticed that the fierce beast was no longer following, so he settled down.
"Thank you," The little girl ran toward him in excitement.
Jiang He found a good location, then the other black rat beast that attacked the girl suddenly rushed out, so Jiang He one hit kill him by stabbing him in the stomach with his dagger. Killing a black mouse beast using the river needed you to know about att.i.tude and tactics. Without outside influence, he was able to deal with it calmly.
