August 28th.

In the morning, Fang Yi took a glass of fruit juice from the waiter.

After downing it in one gulp, he packed his gear and prepared to set off, intending to continue honing his martial arts techniques while earning some money on the side.

"Fang Yi."

However, just as he was about to depart, he heard someone calling his name.

Luo Feng and the Fire Hammer Squad were also preparing to head into the Wilderness Zone today.

Having just stepped off the train and arrived at the military supply base, they spotted Fang Yi getting ready to leave.

Fang Yi, who had his eyes wrapped in black silk, turned toward the sound upon hearing the call. Although he could not see the person, he recognized from the tone of voice that it was Luo Feng.

"Luo Feng."

"I can't believe I ran into you here." Luo Feng walked up quickly, looking at the fully geared Fang Yi and the slight scratches on his backpack.

He guessed that he must have already been out hunting at least a few times.

"So this is Fang Yi?" Chen Gu, the deputy captain of the Fire Hammer Squad, stepped forward curiously and instinctively reached out to shake hands, intending to show friendliness.

However, he felt a bit surprised after noticing the black silk wrapped around the other man's eyes.

After all, heading into the Wilderness Zone with one's eyes covered was no different from suicide. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to be so reckless; if anything went wrong, they would likely end up dead under the claws of monsters.

Fang Yi simply nodded in Chen Gu's direction.

The other members of the Fire Hammer Squad, as well as Captain Gao Feng, also stepped forward to size Fang Yi up.

After all.

Within the Limit Dojo, he was currently the undisputed number one, with Luo Feng following closely behind.

Wu Tong had even spoken with him back then, hoping that they could operate together with Fang Yi, just to show the newcomer the ropes... although, given Fang Yi's level at the time, he could hardly be considered a newcomer.

A Junior Warrior could already be considered a core member of any squad.

"Since you've just arrived from the train, you should get some rest and recover your state before heading into the Wilderness Zone. I'll be heading out first. We can chat if we run into each other later."

After Fang Yi finished speaking, the others didn't say much more; they exchanged greetings and then parted ways.

"Since it's your first time in the wilderness, be careful." Fang Yi reminded him before leaving.

"Understood." Luo Feng nodded.

County City No. 0201.

Fang Yi was already very familiar with the routes in and out, having traversed the entire outer suburban area.

Relying on the ability of his Double Pupil Eyes to analyze the surrounding environment, he could clearly memorize the layout of many streets, residential complexes, and high-rise buildings.

"Today, I'll enter the inner core."

The interior of the county city was far more dangerous than the outskirts, and consequently, the monster ranks would be higher. Having explored the outskirts several times already, it was time to open up some new territory.

Fang Yi quickly dashed into a building and reached its rooftop, leaping across to other platforms.

His movement technique was agile, like an ape in the forest, vaulting through the air between various high-rises.

From the towering rooftops, he could see the layout of the surroundings more clearly.

Under the analytical scan of his Double Pupil Eyes.

Fang Yi immediately spotted a Bloodthirsty Tank on the outskirts of an abandoned shopping street, crouching inside a school bus that had its roof sheared off, gnawing on a corpse. It was eating with great relish, and blood was splattered everywhere—a truly gruesome sight.

Its tank-like body seemed to be crushing the abandoned school bus beneath it.

"The Bloodthirsty Tank is the second-ranked existence among pig-type monsters. Its entire body is covered in thick scales, providing incredible defense. Coupled with its massive size, it resembles an armored tank, which is why humans dubbed it the Bloodthirsty Tank."

"Wait, the color of the scales on that Bloodthirsty Tank... it's not a Beast-General Rank, it's an Advanced Beast General!"

A look of joy appeared on Fang Yi's face.

This was his first time encountering an Advanced Beast General. Although it was a pig-type monster, the Bloodthirsty Tank itself was not weak, and the materials on its body were more valuable than those of ordinary pig-type monsters.

Fang Yi immediately began leaping along the edges of the high-rises, slowly closing in on the abandoned school bus.

When the distance between them narrowed.

Fang Yi stood in front of a window in a high-rise building, then suddenly raised his fist and leaped!

The Bloodthirsty Tank had terrifying hearing; the mere sound of footsteps on the wall caused it to react instantly. The massive pig head jerked up, and it saw a human figure hurtling toward its body from the air.

"BOOM—!"

Relying on the momentum of his descent, Fang Yi threw a punch directly at the top of its skull. This strike was fierce—it was Fang Yi's full-power blow.

A gust of wind echoed.

The abandoned school bus sank violently. The tires, which were already deflated and rotted with rust, burst outward in all directions.

"GRRR—!"

Although the Bloodthirsty Tank possessed astonishing defenses, its head was significantly affected by this strike, causing it to let out a sharp, piercing cry.

Following this, its massive body suddenly rolled toward one side, and Fang Yi immediately leaped off its back to avoid being dragged into a collision with the ground or the nearby walls.

"Bang!"

The Bloodthirsty Tank rolled and slammed into the ground with a dull thud, then immediately scrambled back to its feet. Its eyes locked directly onto Fang Yi, who was standing at the edge.

Then, it pushed off with all four limbs and charged fiercely in his direction!

Fang Yi's left eye revealed a double pupil, using the power of analysis to see through the opponent's offensive and its subsequent intentions.

Seeing that it was about to sprint toward him, he immediately reacted by dodging.

"Boom!"

The massive body of the Bloodthirsty Tank shattered a high-rise wall! In an instant, rubble collapsed and a cloud of dust rose into the air.

What terrifying impact force. If this strike had hit me, even if my combat suit remained intact, my body and internal organs would have suffered significant damage.

Watching the opponent's ferocity, Fang Yi felt not a shred of fear; instead, he grew even more excited.

The blood in his body seemed to be burning and boiling.

Even though there was a two-level gap between them, Fang Yi remained confident that he could take it down.

From within the dust, a massive shadow suddenly lunged out. Fang Yi reacted quickly, dodging in a hurry while spinning to throw a punch.

Power rose from the feet, flowed through the spine, connected through the joints into the arm, and unified the force.

This punch contained two layers of Hidden Force.

It struck precisely at the ear of the Bloodthirsty Tank, with one force following another in a simultaneous eruption, making this punch incredibly dangerous and brutal!

Fang Yi had been practicing this punch during his second and third sweeps of the wilderness.

Although Fang Yi had never learned the Nine-Layered Thunder Blade, he had at least read the descriptions of Luo Feng's training, and combined with his years of practicing boxing, he hadn't taken long to master this technique and put it into practice.

It's a pity the original text didn't have many descriptions of World Destroyer, otherwise, I might have been able to steal some of its force-generating techniques as well.

After Fang Yi threw the punch, he rotated his fist slightly.

Fang Yi utilized his advantage as a transmigrator, successfully learning the technique by combining it with the descriptions of Luo Feng's martial arts training.

To a certain extent, this could be considered what people often call "stealing a master's craft," much like the settings in some martial arts online games.

By observing in secret, he had comprehended and learned it on his own.

His previous punching power was around 13,000kg, and with this punch combined with the eruption of Hidden Force, it could reach at least 26,000kg!

"Grrr!"

"Bang!" The Bloodthirsty Tank took this terrifying punch, its body tilting violently to one side.

However, because its momentum during the charge was so fast, its entire body couldn't stop itself from slamming into the high-rise building at the edge, punching yet another massive hole through the structure.
