Chapter 46: Chapter 43 Corpse Mountain Bait
Editor: Atlas Studios
Generally speaking, undertaking collection quests involving guarding treasures by a BOSS requires teamwork—an individual to lure the mob while another collects the treasure.
But now, no one is cooperating, and the pirates are not friendly towards Da Fei; it’s impossible to command them. Additionally, crocodiles, being ambush predators, are difficult to lure. Creatures of ambush are usually patient, and won’t waste their stamina easily unless they’re certain. Once genuinely agitated, what one faces is their rapid and thunderous strike, a sure recipe for disaster.
Stealth is certainly not feasible since entering the water would give him away.
What to do? If I bring over the big boat, maybe I could try fishing for crocodiles like fishing for great white sharks, but with the current situation, I almost have no tools to rely on!
Fishing? Suddenly, a thought struck Da Fei!
Yes, I can still fish! Realizing this, Da Fei laughed heartily and imdiately headed toward the island’s forest. The pirates ntioned that there are ferocious beasts on the island, and of course, where there are ferocious beasts, there must be prey—and Da Fei is going to be the hunter.
Upon entering the forest, Da Fei started moving stealthily, then searched around using his binoculars. Soon, an animal resembling a mountain goat entered his sight—the Desolate Island mountain goat! That’s the one, with plenty of at, just right to lure the crocodile.
Closing in, closing in, sneaking quietly into the village, don’t make a sound – Crack! A dry twig cracked underfoot and the goat, suddenly alert, sprinted away without a trace. Damn, its speed is truly beyond what re humans can chase.
Keep going! Then Da Fei spotted a few more goats, but without exception, they all escaped before he could get close. Da Fei was in disarray.
Long Spear Soldiers being hunters is indeed a joke, even primitive people knew to use bows and flying spears, my capabilities are even less than those of primitives.
Then, let’s find a ferocious beast! Surely the ferocious beasts wouldn’t run away! Soon, Da Fei encountered a ferocious beast, the Desolate Island large leopard! Da Fei imdiately checked the information.
——Desolate Island large leopard: Attack 17, Defense 8, Health 75, Damage 11-20, Attack Speed 23, Move Speed 20, Special Skills: Stealth, Climb Trees, Rapid Bite, Throat Lock.
Da Fei was montarily speechless. A ferocious beast is considered such because of its imnse advantages over re humans. Seeing its frightening attack speed of 23 points, Da Fei felt a bit uneasy. This attack speed, with biting and clawing, is not sothing humans can match.
, with 20 Attack, 30 Defense, 71 Health points, and land damage of 8-10, with the effect of Paralysis Poison included, can I win?
This is a confusing situation requiring careful consideration. As he was pondering, the large leopard suddenly beca alert, leaped onto a tree, and hid among the leaves.
Damn! You’re a ferocious beast, what are you hiding for!
Since the opponent showed weakness, I couldn’t bother about that much anymore, Da Fei hurriedly rushed to the tree, lifting his gun provocatively and shouted, “Co down!”
The leopard just showed its eyes from the foliage, unmoved. Da Fei kicked the tree trunk, “Co down!”
Leopard: “ow!”
After much struggle, Da Fei could do nothing but heave a long sigh, “Why are you so tough?”
For humans, no business ans no killing. But for animals, unless it’s necessary hunting or defending territory, they don’t engage in senseless slaughter easily. Animals know well what injury ans for them—it ans even the top predator can’t catch the weakest rabbit and would starve to death.
Although Da Fei isn’t injured now, he’s inherently the worst hunter, and in this survival-of-the-fittest jungle on the island, Da Fei can’t even catch a rabbit. re humans, indeed very insignificant.
However, humans have wisdom, and it seems not many among humans can match the level of my wisdom!
Thus, Da Fei chased madly and finally found a rabbit nest in the bushes, then harvested a plump rabbit.
Hahaha, finally got the bait!
Of course, a re rabbit isn’t enough to fill the gaps between the giant crocodile’s teeth, and the giant crocodile might not even care for it. Da Fei’s primary target isn’t the giant crocodile, but to use the rabbit to lure bigger prey. That’s right, from little fish to bigger fish, and from big fish to the beautiful pirate won!
Da Fei arrived near the shallow waters where crocodiles lingered, chose a spot that wouldn’t alert the crocodiles, and began to assemble the Crossbow Cannon. Once the Crossbow Cannon was assembled, he fired a Crossbow Arrow towards the beach, then placed the rabbit where the arrow landed.
The reason Da Fei arranged it this way was to ensure that the Crossbow Cannon could hit the target without aiming. After all, what if a fast-moving small creature like a fox snatched the rabbit and ran off before you could aim? Besides, the Crossbow Cannon has a long range, which doesn’t easily alert the prey and makes hunting more convenient.
Everything set, Da Fei sat at the Crossbow Cannon, quietly waiting.
Ti ticked by. Da Fei yawned continuously until suddenly, a white flash before his eyes—damn! Da Fei didn’t see clearly and reflexively kicked the trigger.
Boom! The Crossbow Arrow shot out explosively, Bang! Blood and feathers flew everywhere! Holy crap, it’s an Osprey! It almost stole my hard-earned bait! Using a cannon to kill a fly, that was too risky. If it weren’t for the Osprey being slow to speed up after grabbing the rabbit, the Crossbow Cannon would mostly likely have missed!
But well, not only was the rabbit saved, but now there was also a large bird, exactly the effect I wanted.
Now, Da Fei piled the Osprey and rabbit together, and without any negligence, kept the binoculars at hand, vigilantly watching the skies and the jungle along the coast.
Before long, various animals like foxes began to poke their heads out of the bushes. Hehe, co on, let’s see who’s more cunning.
The outco was brilliant, by nightfall, piles of foxes, ospreys, and seabirds had accumulated.
Yet, the crocodile in the water remained unmoved. Da Fei started getting anxious. Were crocodiles really scavengers? Did it not see or sll, or did it simply disdain the sight? Did he need to lure all the large beasts on the island to create a giant Corpse Mountain? Or was this approach just wrong from the start, and they simply didn’t fall for it?
In his anxiety, the bushes on the shore rustled—here cos the big one! Da Fei perked up.
There it appeared, the Wilderness Island Cannibal Giant Lizard!
—Wilderness Island Cannibal Giant Lizard: Attack 13, Defense 15, Damage 11-18, Health 130, Attack Speed 8, Move Speed 7, Experience 570, Special Skills: Rotting Tracking, Strong Plague Demise, Cannibalism.
The cannibal giant lizard’s tongue had a strong sense of sll, capable of detecting the scent of corpses several kiloters away. They usually swallowed rotting corpses and their teeth and saliva were filled with several deadly toxins with no known cure. Once a creature is bitten by the giant lizard, it could be a day or half a month before their inevitable death! This is why giant lizards with unremarkable combat and speed capabilities dominate Wilderness Island.
Da Fei frowned, no doubt, this creature’s design strongly resembled the Komodo dragons of Indonesia. If so, his Corpse Mountain could now be built. With its Blood Defense, it couldn’t withstand a single shot from him!
As expected, when the first giant lizard entered the ambush unconcerned, Da Fei took it down with one shot.
—System Prompt: You have killed a Wilderness Island Cannibal Giant Lizard, gaining Experience
570.
Just looking at its attributes, this experience was okay! But compared to its chilling special skills which could trade one life for many, this experience seed a bit underwhelming.
With the first one down, a second followed soon. More lizards kept appearing from the bushes. In the darkness, the eyes of these lizards glowed like light bulbs, making the entire beach’s bushes shine.
Holy crap! Did I just lure all the lizards on the island? Co on, all co and contribute to my Corpse Mountain! Haha, wahahaha!
