Chapter 272: Chapter 173: Already a Force to be Reckoned With, Who Can Stop It!
For two consecutive days, Qin Shi held a bow in his left hand and rubbed Dinsion Slash with his right hand, rampaging through the entire middle layer with an extrely high-profile stance.
With Yan Ren, the Hamr Brother, acting as a at shield Tank attracting aggro, gathering monsters was easier.
Large swathes of Rust Beasts were harvested, like wheat falling in fields.
Dong!
Yan Ren swung his large hamr, smashing a Rust Beast that was pouncing, and as its flesh and blood exploded, it directly transford into a fist-sized fireball.
He hurriedly retreated to avoid contamination, drawing the beast horde to a depression pit before sprinting away.
The next mont, a dozen arrows descended from the sky, like summoned aerial strikes, “igniting” nurous Rust Beasts.
The intense heat swept through, spreading like a plague, dissolving flesh and leaving only scalding, heated iron hearts.
These ordinary Rust Beasts were different from Boss Level ones; their hearts were not completely ironized, usually only 50% to 70% covered in iron. So even shattered like exploding pebbles under the heat, breaking into pieces with a crackling sound.
Qin Shi stood on a high vantage point, overlooking the sea of fire below. This wave probably earned him less than five hundred points.
“Too slow, too slow. If only a Boss Level elite ca along, a few thousand points would be great.”
Just as the thought crossed his mind, Yan Ren suddenly shouted:
“Help! A big one is coming!”
Qin Shi fixed his gaze and saw a three-headed jackal over ten ters tall breaking through the sea of fire, closely following Yan Ren.
The three heads glead with a fierce light, the left one burning with black flas, the right encased in rusted tal, and the middle jaw split open, its mouth parting into four like a blooming man-eating flower.
“It’s an ‘Eroding Steel Jackal’.
Qin Shi’s eyes lit up. The manual recorded clearly that Eroding Steel Jackals were mostly born in wasteland radiation zones, fused with a biochemical virus from mutated jackals.
They could absorb chanical wreckage and radioactive materials, growing and adapting quickly, making them top predators in the Great Rift Valley Ecosystem.
Of course, what mattered most to Qin Shi was that an Eroding Steel Jackal was worth three thousand points.
“This one’s evolution isn’t low; it already has three heads. It should be worth five thousand points.”
He stared intently at the beast, which was like a small mountain. Such large “beasts” were hard to handle with swords alone.
Their thick skins and tenacious life force made their health bars absurdly long.
Given the massive size difference, slashing at their legs would leave very little room for error; a slight mistake could lead to being crushed to death.
“In situations like this, it’s often up to a Mage to step in.”
Qin Shi first plunged his Perfect Level Electric Shock Saber into the ground and then placed his Compound Bow behind him.
He then skillfully began rubbing Dinsion Slash, his ntal Power highly focused. His Spirit circulated the ditation Technique, causing the atmosphere to oscillate violently, compressing into deep rifts like winding lightning coiled in his palm.
The three-headed Eroding Steel Jackal pursued Yan Ren tenaciously, its gaping maw dripping sulfuric saliva, almost catching its “food” several tis.
Feeling the rancid hot breath behind him, Yan Ren’s face turned white with fear. Fortunately, his family’s secret dicine gave him eagle-like speed and leopard-like agility.
“Help, Super Brother! This guy just ca out of nowhere and is intent on getting !”
Qin Shi said nothing, solely focused on rubbing Dinsion Slash.
As the deep, black lightning rifts thickened to the size of barrels, he finally activated Telekinesis, launching them forward!
Swish!
Like a nacing electric light slicing through space, it shot forward like a thrown long spear, piercing the Eroding Steel Jackal’s chest in a flash.
This alien creature’s fatal weakness was not its conspicuous heads. Even if one head was destroyed, the other two could still control the body.
To kill it in one strike, you had to aim for the chest, severing the heads from the body!
Crash!
Fleeing frantically, Yan Ren suddenly heard the sound of a waterfall, as if a gate was opening to release water.
Imdiately after, torrents of viscous blood splashed down, drenching him from head to toe!
Thud!
A heavy object hit the ground!
The three heads separated from the jackal’s body, crashing down beside it.
It wasn’t completely dead yet.
The middle head blood like a flower, with its four huge feeding mouthparts reaching for Yan Ren.
Even in its dying monts, it attempted a counterattack!
“Shit! Damn you!”
Yan Ren, drenched in blood, would’ve been disfigured by the corrosive liquid if not for his strong Life Force, which protected him from being burned beyond recognition.
This provoked his ferocity, and he swung his hamr, smashing the mouthparts.
Then he spun his body, whirling like a tornado!
“You’re so brutal, brother.”
Qin Shi approached, eyeing the bloody ss of the three-headed Eroding Steel Jackal and said:
“How can I find the Energy Core in this pile of stuff?”
Yan Ren took off his clothes, wiping the coagulated viscous blood off his body.
This stuff was like paint, hard to wash off once it stuck.
“I’ll go in and feel around later. Super Brother, your move is just too unreasonable! The damage is terrifying. A Specialized Level Mortal Body might not withstand it!”
Yan Ren looked at the smooth, neat cut. In almost an instant, the three-headed Eroding Steel Jackal had been sliced in two.
He was secretly shocked, marveling at the dual-path approach.
Stats and Skills, he had them all!
Plus, monstrous late-growth potential!
How could others compete!
“Speaking of which, isn’t the ranking list about to be released?”
After dealing with the three-headed Eroding Steel Jackal, Qin Shi felt an emptiness in his Sea of Consciousness, like a hangover-induced grogginess.
He looked up at the sky above the Great Rift Valley.
