Rumble rumble!!
The roar of a violent engine shattered the wilderness's silence.
Two dazzling headlights shone out from within the canyon like beams of light.
Then, a military-green off-road vehicle sped to the mouth of the valley.
"Eek!"
With a hard brake, the tires made intimate yet violent contact with the ground.
Once the vehicle came to a stop,
Lin Ye grabbed the door frame and leaped down.
The national highway beneath his feet had long since fallen into ruin.
As far as the eye could see,
Countless shattered sedans, trucks, and buses littered the road stretching to the end of the wasteland... rusted until only their frames remained, like a graveyard of cars.
Wrecked vehicles lay everywhere, along with dense black bloodstains.
All of them silently told of the brutality and bloodshed of the past.
Leaping onto a thick banyan tree, Lin Ye took out his Infrared Binoculars and carefully surveyed the distant wilderness.
About two thousand meters from the canyon,
Pig-like Monsters the size of heavily armored tanks were gathered in a cluster, seemingly feeding.
Lin Ye's gaze sharpened slightly, as if he had noticed something unusual.
What those Pig-like Monsters surrounded was a patch of black-red earth soaked in blood.
The bloodied ground was covered in broken bones, corpses, severed limbs, tattered military-green Combat Suits, and grenades that had not yet been detonated...
Under the moonlight, the crimson scene was especially glaring.
"Damn it!!"
Seeing this, Lin Ye pressed one hand against his Saber Case, veins bulging.
After finishing their meal, the Pig-like Monsters turned around and leisurely advanced toward the canyon.
"I've reached the destination and found dozens of monsters!"
"However, the scouting soldiers... have all been killed!"
Lightly tapping his earpiece, Lin Ye spoke in a low voice.
Command Center: "..."
After a brief silence, the Command Center's voice came through the earpiece.
"Mr. Lin Ye, you may hunt the monsters freely!"
"All monsters slain during this operation will be recorded as military merit! Remember to conserve your strength and await further missions."
"No problem!" Lin Ye nodded slightly.
"Whew... whew..."
After taking two deep breaths, Lin Ye forcibly suppressed the rage in his heart.
Leaning against a tree trunk, he gazed coldly at the approaching Pig-like Monsters and quietly drew his Battle Saber.
Outside the canyon,
The Pig-like Monsters drew closer and closer.
Just as those Wild Boar Monsters came within twenty meters of Lin Ye,
He moved!
Bang!
With one stomp, Lin Ye shot forward like an agile cheetah.
On the cracked highway at the pass, Lin Ye darted onto an overturned bus like a nimble cheetah and looked ahead.
More than ten meters away, seventeen enormous Unicorn Wild Boars advanced slowly in a fan-shaped formation.
Pairs of pig eyes filled with bloody savagery locked firmly onto the human before them.
Lin Ye held his Battle Saber in a reverse grip in his right hand, staring eagerly at those Attribute Points with a cruel smile curling his lips.
The Unicorn Wild Boars were covered in brown fur, their bristles standing erect like steel spikes, enough to chill the heart.
Their dark-brown horns were even more like sharp knives.
Under the moonlight, those horn-blades reflected a cold, razor-sharp glint.
"The Unicorn Wild Boars are merely appetizers. The real big ones are those two in the back!"
Lin Ye murmured softly, his thoughts racing.
His gaze passed over the Unicorn Wild Boars.
He looked toward the two entirely red Pig-like Monsters in the distance, their bodies seemingly clad in heavy armor—Bloodthirsty Tanks.
As a veteran who had spent more than a year in the wilderness, he could easily tell from their size alone
That they were two High-level Beast Soldier Bloodthirsty Tanks.
And they were the most terrifying beings among this group of Pig-like Monsters.
They posed the greatest threat to Lin Ye as well.
"Roar—"
Having discovered their target, the two minor-leader-level Bloodthirsty Tanks let out furious roars and charged straight at Lin Ye.
The Bloodthirsty Tanks looked thick-skinned, heavy, and sluggish.
Yet once they started running, they were extremely fast.
Even from far away, Lin Ye could feel the fierce wind rushing toward him.
But he did not retreat. Instead, he narrowed his eyes slightly, silently observing the movements of the other Unicorn Wild Boars as his right hand quietly tightened around his Battle Saber.
As the two Bloodthirsty Tanks charged, several Unicorn Wild Boars quickly retreated, clearing a path for their two leaders.
Then,
They scattered into a fan-shaped formation, intending to cut off every route of retreat for Lin Ye.
"Heh~ Is that all!"
Lin Ye's eyes instantly turned icy as his entire body tensed, ready to enter peak condition at any moment.
Boom!!
One of the Bloodthirsty Tanks was incredibly fast. Like a high-speed tank, it crashed directly into the bus beneath Lin Ye.
Lin Ye kicked off the bus door and instantly dodged aside.
Boom!!
A thunderous crash rang out.
The bus was smashed into pieces by the Bloodthirsty Tank, its wheels scattering and rolling away.
The instant Lin Ye landed,
The other Bloodthirsty Tank's attack followed immediately, giving him no chance to catch his breath.
Its gaping mouth spewed foul-smelling breath, and its tusks flashed with a chilling gleam.
Whoosh!!
Just as the Bloodthirsty Tank's sharp teeth came within an inch of Lin Ye's chest, he suddenly twisted sideways at an astonishing speed.
This was no ordinary sidestep.
Anyone watching the speed of Lin Ye's movement would have been instantly shocked by his jaw-dropping, terrifying explosiveness.
The sharp tusks almost brushed past Lin Ye's chest.
And at that very instant,
Lin Ye raised his right hand with the motion, and a streak of dull-black saber light flashed like lightning toward the Bloodthirsty Tank's neck.
Clang!!!
Sparks flew as the Battle Saber was blocked by the thick scales around its neck.
Whoosh!!
In that brief pause, a black shadow swept straight toward Lin Ye's head.
Clang!!
Reacting almost instinctively, he swung his saber to block it.
The Battle Saber collided violently with the black shadow, producing a piercing screech of metal against metal.
Amid the flying sparks, Lin Ye knocked back the black shadow that had ambushed him with one slash.
Turning to look, he saw that it was actually a tail like an iron caltrop.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Ye reacted with lightning speed.
With a push from his feet, he once again swung his saber at the Bloodthirsty Tank's neck.
Lin Ye's arm suddenly trembled.
A tremendous force instantly erupted from within him, flowing down his arm and into the Battle Saber.
"Double Force, burst!!" A low shout exploded within Lin Ye's mind.
The already fierce saber light accelerated once more, carrying terrifying power.
Sshh! Sshh!!
Two consecutive slashes fell.
The sharp blade viciously tore through the Bloodthirsty Tank's thick scales, severing more than half of its neck.
Splat!
The blade slid along the wound and pierced directly into its neck.
With a turn of his wrist, the long Battle Saber twisted inside its neck.
Crack!!
Crack!!
Crisp cracking sounds rang out one after another.
Pulling out his Battle Saber, Lin Ye delivered a powerful kick straight at the Bloodthirsty Tank's head.
Bang!!
After taking Lin Ye's kick, the massive pig monster staggered backward again and again.
Blood continuously spurted from its wound, creating a blood rain out of thin air.
At last, the eyes of this High-level Beast Soldier gradually lost their light. It closed its eyes unwillingly and slowly collapsed...
