Heavy Pupil Analysis

"Captain, our average strength is only at the Advanced Fighter level. Are we really going to that residential area to hunt Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions?" Li Feng, the vice-captain of the Longbow Squad, asked with trepidation.

At this moment.

Beside him followed two other members wearing deep blue team uniforms, each featuring a longbow emblem on their chests.

"Don't worry. I observed the area last time; there aren't many Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions there, and only two are at the Beast-General Rank. As long as we coordinate well and wear them down slowly, we have a chance!"

"Besides, that group of Crystal Scorpions might not stay there for long, and we have no idea where they'll go next. The point is that Beast-General Rank Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions are extremely valuable. If we can sell them, we'll at least have enough money to save up, gradually afford Gene Serum, and make the leap toward the War General level!"

"Even if we can't progress any further after that, reaching the War General level is enough for us to live a stable life."

Ze Zi, the captain of the Longbow Squad, said.

The other two members and the vice-captain looked at each other, pondered for a moment, and nodded in agreement.

Although the team's overall strength was only at the Advanced Fighter level, it was not impossible to work together to take down a Primary Beast General.

If they fought by kiting the monsters and the number of enemies was low.

There was indeed a chance.

Moreover, a War General level Martial Artist definitely earns money faster and more easily than an Advanced Fighter!

After all, in today's society, the status of a Martial Artist is far above that of an ordinary person.

Plus, the group was in urgent need of money; if they missed this opportunity, who knows how long they would have to wait for the next one?

Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion.

Its appearance is like a scorpion-shaped handicraft made of crystal, through which one can even see some of its internal organs and the slender venom ducts.

It has extremely high defensive capabilities, is highly toxic, and its legs can firmly pierce into the ground and walls. However, due to its transparency, one can see the location of its internal organs and the amount of venom it possesses.

The most expensive part of its entire body is the Crystal Scorpion Hook.

It is as sturdy as an ox, relying not only on its Twin Pincers for attacks but also on its terrifying venom.

Fang Yi had read the files on many monsters, so he could recognize this highly distinct scorpion-type monster at a glance.

He jumped from the side of a rooftop, traversing through the air to enter the interior of the residential area.

The surrounding buildings were close together.

For a Martial Artist, as long as they jumped with enough force, they could easily travel between them without needing to go down to the streets.

Entering the residential area.

Fang Yi climbed along the edge, slowly descending from the edge of a long-abandoned residential balcony.

Despite his subtle movements, the vigilant Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions in the vicinity still sensed something unusual and turned their gazes toward the high-rise ruins.

In an instant—

Fang Yi leaped down directly from the fourth floor!

Utilizing the force of his descent, he threw a fierce left punch, striking the head of a Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion, right on its hard cranial armor.

"Clang!" "Boom!"

First, the sound of metal clashing echoed, followed by the sound of something solid shattering.

Fang Yi's hand punched through the crystal armor on the scorpion's head.

The ground itself, already eroded by the elements and now struck by such immense impact, cracked extensively.

Gravel flew and scattered everywhere.

"So hard. It truly lives up to its reputation for defense. If I hadn't used the momentum and my full strength, I might not have been able to shatter its skull with a single punch."

Fang Yi narrowed his eyes as he spoke.

His other hand grabbed the creature's transparent scorpion hook to prevent it from launching a sudden attack while in its injured state.

Seeing this, the other few Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions moved their limbs and crawled over rapidly!

They shook their scorpion tails, which carried their venom.

They struck simultaneously with extreme speed, like a flash of cold light passing by in an instant.

Fang Yi's reaction was lightning-fast; he dodged, using the half-dead Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion in his hand as a shield to block the three tails stabbing at him at once.

"Stab—!"

Fang Yi swung the Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion, throwing it like a traditional meteor hammer, and slammed it heavily into two other Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions.

"Crack—!"

The sound of the collision echoed.

Fang Yi took the opportunity to bend his knees slightly and instantly propelled himself forward.

He then leaned his body slightly forward, staying close to the ground, to dodge the pincer attack from another Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion.

With a spiraling, whirlwind-like movement technique, he moved behind the creature and grabbed its Crystal Scorpion Hook with one hand!

With his left hand on top and his right hand below, Fang Yi applied pressure in opposite directions using his overwhelming brute force. With a sharp "Crack!" the joint of the scorpion's tail was snapped clean off by Fang Yi!

"Hiss—!"

The Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion let out a painful shriek.

The best and fastest way to slay these wild monsters is to strike their weak points, even though the Crystal Long-tailed Scorpion has a hard shell.

However, the joints where it moves are its inherent weaknesses.

The reason Fang Yi had previously attacked its head by falling from a great height was because he wanted to test the effectiveness of a direct assault; it could be considered a probing maneuver.

The result.

Was obvious.

Although these Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions were not high-level, he could still shatter their crystal shells by relying on high-speed sprints and full-force punches.

But that style of fighting consumed a great deal of stamina.

Therefore, after testing the waters, Fang Yi switched to the most efficient and simple method of targeting weak points.

After breaking its tail, Fang Yi used both hands to rip off its legs and Twin Pincers, causing its transparent, water-like blood to spray all around. Before its companions could arrive, he dismantled the Crystal Scorpion as if it were a set of building blocks.

The other few Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions took this opportunity to gather and attack simultaneously.

But Fang Yi opened his left eye wide!

His Double Pupil Eyes activated See Through Falsehood, and his Power of Analysis took effect.

This ability to See Through Falsehood is divided into two parts: the first is to penetrate and analyze the surrounding environment and structures, and the second is to analyze the attack movements of enemies.

The previous enemies were too weak.

Fang Yi hadn't needed to use it, but now that the strength of the enemies was gradually increasing, although they still didn't pose a threat to him, they were strong enough to warrant its use.

In an instant.

The blue-purple Divine Light of the Double Pupil Eyes flickered within his eye socket.

The surrounding world and the bodies of those few Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions gradually transformed into a series of intersecting three-dimensional lines.

The attacks of the Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions seemed to slow down by half, and Fang Yi's own reflexes were already extremely fast. With the analytical support of his Double Pupil Eyes, he could easily dodge the venomous hooks that were about to strike his body.

Carried by the power of the Double Pupil Eyes, Fang Yi moved like a gale, dodging the scorpion hooks.

Then, taking a deep breath, he grabbed the joints of the scorpion hooks and channeled force into his palms, snapping the joints inch by inch with immense strength!

"Crack, crack—!"

Under the analytical vision of the Double Pupil Eyes, Fang Yi snapped all three of their tails.

But in the eyes of these Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions, this human had dismantled their attacks in an instant, countered them, and disarmed them of their most powerful weapons!

Their limited intelligence.

Caused them to reveal expressions of terror at this moment.

Having lost their tails, the overall threat level of the Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions dropped sharply. Fang Yi didn't spend much effort to dismantle and kill all three of them!

"Done."

Fang Yi let out a light sigh of relief.

The Double Pupil in his left eye gradually faded back to normal; after all, he didn't want others to know of its existence yet, so he would use an Illusion Technique to hide it every time he finished using the ability.

However.

Just as Fang Yi was about to dismantle these few Crystal Long-tailed Scorpions.

From the abandoned building not far away, a series of urgent, sharp sounds rang out...

"Run!"
