Level 2 Fierce Beast

The Ironclaw Rats were fast, but Nan Feng was no slouch either. After all, his initial Agility was 12 points, above average.

But among the Ironclaw Rats, there was one slightly larger rat whose speed was much faster than Nan Feng's.

Before long, this Ironclaw Rat had caught up behind Nan Feng!

"Damn, did this Ironclaw Rat mutate? Why is it so fast?"

"Eye of Insight!"

While running, Nan Feng turned his head and activated his skill on the larger Ironclaw Rat.

Ironclaw Rat:

Level: 2

Health Points: 300/300

Mana Points: 30/30

Attack Power: 64

Defense Power: 26

Skill: Claw

"Damn! This rat is Level 2!"

The moment Nan Feng saw the Level 2 Ironclaw Rat's attributes, he sensed trouble.

Its Attack Power was four points higher than his!

If it clawed him, wouldn't that hurt like hell?

Just then, the Ironclaw Rat behind Nan Feng suddenly sped up, leaped high into the air, and slashed his back with its claws!

-44!

The pain nearly made Nan Feng cry out!

He only had 80 Health Points right now!

That single claw strike had taken more than half his health!

One more claw, and he would be dead!

Bleeding: -3

Bleeding: -2

Misfortune never came alone. The Ironclaw Rat's claw had torn off a small chunk of Nan Feng's flesh, and blood kept pouring from the wound!

"I'm done for..."

Nan Feng's face darkened.

While sprinting at full speed, he had no time to stop the bleeding. He could only let the wound heal on its own!

Fortunately, the Wooden Cabin was not far away. After running for so long, it had entered Nan Feng's field of vision.

The Level 2 Ironclaw Rat behind him had lost some ground after leaping to attack him.

Seizing the opportunity, Nan Feng gritted his teeth and rushed back to the Wooden Cabin in one go!

The moment he returned to the Wooden Cabin, Nan Feng immediately took off his shirt and pressed it against his back.

Even such a crude method of stopping the bleeding was effective.

Bleeding: -1

Bleeding: -0

Bleeding: -1

A few seconds later, the wound on Nan Feng's back finally stopped bleeding.

The bleeding had stopped!

"Phew... I'm safe."

"Good thing it was just a rat, so the wound it tore open wasn't too big. If it had been a tiger or leopard, I'd definitely be dead today."

Nan Feng glanced at his Personal Information. He only had 13 Health Points left, and he could not help but suck in a cold breath.

That had been incredibly close!

Fortunately, staying inside the Wooden Cabin restored 5 Health Points per minute.

As long as he still had a breath left in him, it would not take long for Nan Feng to return to full health and full condition.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Outside the Wooden Cabin, more than a dozen Ironclaw Rats had gathered, circling the cabin as though they wanted to get inside.

But a white ring of light surrounded the Wooden Cabin. The Ironclaw Rats were blocked outside it and could not get closer.

Ding! Ironclaw Rats wish to enter your Wooden Cabin. Do you agree?

The voice of the Genesis System suddenly rang out beside Nan Feng's ear.

"I don't agree."

Nan Feng rolled his eyes and rejected them without hesitation.

Were they crazy? Why would he let these Ironclaw Rats in? So they could eat him?

But this also told Nan Feng something: without his permission, fierce beasts could not enter his Wooden Cabin!

"If that's the case, then even if I open the door, they shouldn't be able to get in, right?"

With that thought, Nan Feng cautiously opened a crack in the door, while tensing every muscle in his body. If anything went wrong, he would immediately shut the wooden door.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened. The Ironclaw Rats really could not get in!

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Seeing their meal slip away, the Level 2 Ironclaw Rat was extremely unwilling to accept it. It began directing the other Ironclaw Rats to attack the Wooden Cabin!

A group of Ironclaw Rats surrounded the Wooden Cabin and started clawing at it wildly.

-0!

-0!

Weak Point Attack: -1!

A string of -0s floated up, mixed with one or two Weak Point Attacks!

"Huh? My Wooden Cabin has 100 Defense Power, and it can still lose health?"

Nan Feng immediately became a little nervous.

Although each Weak Point Attack only deducted 1 point of health, there were too many Ironclaw Rats. In just this short time, the Wooden Cabin had already lost 8 health!

If he let the Ironclaw Rats keep attacking, the Wooden Cabin would be finished sooner or later!

"No, I need to fight back!"

Nan Feng opened the door and pulled out the Desert Eagle.

Since the Ironclaw Rats could not get in anyway, it made no difference whether the door was open or closed. Keeping it shut only blocked Nan Feng's view.

"To catch the bandits, first catch their leader. I'll kill that Level 2 Ironclaw Rat first!"

Nan Feng scanned the area and quickly spotted the Level 2 Ironclaw Rat among the swarm—it was hugging a piece of wood and gnawing on it enthusiastically!

"That's you."

Nan Feng did not fire immediately. Instead, he carefully took aim.

"The first shot has to cripple it."

"Otherwise, if it gets away, I'll be in danger from now on."

Until Nan Feng reached Level 2, this Ironclaw Rat posed an enormous threat to him.

If he let it escape this time, Nan Feng might not dare leave the Wooden Cabin for the next few days!

He focused, calmed his breathing, and aimed...

The Level 2 Ironclaw Rat also noticed Nan Feng's strange movements, but it clearly did not recognize a gun. Not only did it have no intention of fleeing, it bared its teeth at Nan Feng and squeaked wildly.

Seeing this, Nan Feng silently shifted his sights onto the Ironclaw Rat's head.

Not scared, huh?

Here you go!

Nan Feng pulled the trigger. A Mana Bullet shot out at high speed and instantly struck the Level 2 Ironclaw Rat in the head!

Weak Point Attack: -45!

Bleeding: -7!

Bleeding: -8!

Bleeding: -5!

Nan Feng's shot blew out the Ironclaw Rat's left eye, but because its Defense Power was so high, the Mana Bullet dissipated before it could enter its brain.

The shot had only dealt 45 damage, but the bleeding effect afterward was extremely potent, dealing several points of damage every second.

It looked like he had truly hit a vital spot this time.

"Such a perfect shot only dealt 45 damage? My Attack Power really is low..."

Nan Feng was somewhat disappointed. He had thought that shot would deal at least seventy or eighty damage.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

The Level 2 Ironclaw Rat squeaked painfully, rolling across the ground and darting around like it had gone mad.

Nan Feng was immediately startled. "Damn, you're not going to run away, are you? Don't be such a coward, buddy!"

Fortunately, the Ironclaw Rat had no intention of fleeing. It merely kept circling the Wooden Cabin, seemingly trying to distract itself and ease the pain.

Seeing this, the other Ironclaw Rats all bared their teeth at Nan Feng, wanting to pounce on him and take a bite.

But Nan Feng was still inside the Wooden Cabin, and the Ironclaw Rats simply could not enter.

When the Level 2 Ironclaw Rat circled back again, Nan Feng, who had long been prepared, immediately fired another shot!

Whoosh!

-31!

This shot struck the Ironclaw Rat in the back.

Another shot!

-31!

With the third shot, Nan Feng finally hit the Ironclaw Rat's leg.

Its speed dropped drastically, and it became fish on Nan Feng's chopping block, left entirely at his mercy.

"Nice, three shots, three hits. I'm pretty damn good!"

Nan Feng silently gave himself a thumbs-up, but his hands did not stop as he kept pulling the trigger.

Bullet after bullet struck the Level 2 Ironclaw Rat. Even with 300 Health Points, it was slowly worn down and killed by Nan Feng.

Ding! You have killed a Level 2 ordinary fierce beast, Ironclaw Rat. You gained 22 experience points.

As the system notification sounded, Nan Feng let out a sigh of relief—the hidden danger had finally been dealt with.

"A Level 2 fierce beast only gives 22 experience points? That's way too little..."

Nan Feng curled his lip and looked toward the remaining dozen or so Level 1 Ironclaw Rats.

These Ironclaw Rats were not very intelligent. Even in this situation, they did not choose to flee and continued gnawing at the Wooden Cabin.

Nan Feng hurriedly checked the Wooden Cabin's health:

Health Points: 4977/5000

"Damn it, you little bastards actually dare tear down my house?"

"You really don't take Someone Nan seriously, do you?"

Nan Feng raised the Desert Eagle and aimed it at the Ironclaw Rats.

Delicious experience points—weren't they right here?
