Kill the damn things!
Lin Chen moved through the beast tide like the incarnation of a god of slaughter!
Every time he raised his hand, shattered chunks of flesh fell to the ground!
The two-meter-long Mo Saber seemed to come alive in his hands!
He killed until not a single Monster dared make another rash move!
[ Ding! Killed First-Level Demon Beast x1, Qi-Blood Value +0.1! ]
[ Ding! Killed First-Level Demon Beast x15, Qi-Blood Value +1.5! ]
[ Ding! Killed First-Level Demon Beast x45, Qi-Blood Value +4.5! ]
[ Ding! Used Mad Demon Slash x100, Proficiency +10! ]
Listening to the ceaseless notifications.
Lin Chen felt his body heating up, his hands trembling!
Even the Mo Saber in his grip let out soft, repeated hums!
Qi-Blood Value: 601!
Two-Star Martial Artist!
The thrill of breaking through to Two-Star Martial Artist made Lin Chen immensely excited!
It was as though endless strength filled his body, demanding to be unleashed!
He raised his head and glanced at the Monsters continuously pouring in from all directions.
Lin Chen tightly gripped the hilt in his right hand and strode forward step by step!
Wherever his blade pointed, no beast dared fight him!
A powerful, crushing aura erupted from Lin Chen!
This was the majesty forged through slaughter!
But just then, an earth-shaking roar came from within the beast horde!
Immediately afterward, a gigantic creature five meters tall, covered in black scales and resembling a water buffalo, thundered into view!
Beneath its two sharp horns were a pair of scarlet eyes!
The breath it snorted out was like a heat wave, instantly withering the grass and drying the earth!
A Second-Level Demon Beast—the Black-Armored Savage Bull!
Its information was recorded in the Warrior Badge's Fierce Beast Catalog!
Lin Chen had not expected a Second-Level Demon Beast to be roaming around Danger Zone 0911.
A flash of brilliance burst from Lin Chen's eyes as he felt a trace of surprise!
Having just broken through to Two-Star Martial Artist, he could use this opponent to test his strength!
With a low shout, Lin Chen charged forward in great strides!
The Mo Saber in his hand dragged across the ground, carving out a shocking trench!
The surrounding Monsters retreated several steps in fright at the sight!
Only the Black-Armored Savage Bull let out a low growl, its eyes full of savagery!
As it watched the human draw closer, its two forehooves continuously gathered strength!
The instant Lin Chen approached, the Mo Saber in his hand ripped up from the ground!
Mad Demon Draw Slash!
A dazzling white light fell like moonlight.
The Black-Armored Savage Bull merely lifted its head slightly and blocked it with its horns!
With a shriek of metal colliding, sparks scattered in every direction!
The terrifying brute force instantly made Lin Chen frown.
Using the saber one-handed, he then gripped the hilt with both hands and pressed down!
"Kneel!"
The Black-Armored Savage Bull immediately felt the strain!
After letting out a low roar, it suddenly retreated!
Lin Chen's gaze shifted. He quickly closed the distance, then rushed low along the ground toward its belly!
The Mo Saber in his hand flashed like lightning as it stabbed upward in an instant!
Splash!
With a mournful howl from the Black-Armored Savage Bull, its belly was instantly ripped open!
Green, red, and black entrails spilled all over the ground.
A pungent stench of blood rushed at him!
Before Lin Chen could react, unable to dodge in time, he was instantly buried beneath them.
The next second, a fair, slender hand stretched out!
Then Lin Chen, covered in blood from head to toe, shoved aside the entrails around him and crawled out while suppressing his nausea!
Looking around, the disheveled Lin Chen let out a sharp breath of relief.
Faintly visible, as the Black-Armored Savage Bull died, the surrounding First-Level Demon Beasts had long since fled.
Rumble...
The five-meter-tall Black-Armored Savage Bull also crashed to the ground like a small mountain!
[ Ding! Killed Second-Level Demon Beast x1, Qi-Blood Value +0.2! ]
[ Ding! Used Mad Demon Slash x1, Proficiency +0.1! ]
Hearing the notification by his ear.
Lin Chen grinned!
Looking at the dead Second-Level Demon Beast, the Black-Armored Savage Bull, he felt thoroughly satisfied!
He thought that during that battle, he had used nearly eighty percent of his strength just to kill it quickly!
If the fight had dragged on any longer, it was hard to say who would have been begging whom for mercy!
"I still need to work harder..."
Lin Chen got to his feet, dusted off his hands, and stored the Black-Armored Savage Bull away!
He glanced at the Monster corpses around him and took them all as well!
By the time he finished all that, it was already afternoon!
After the morning's frenzied slaughter, Lin Chen had long exhausted his stamina!
But unlike his first time leaving the city.
This time, he had brought some compressed military rations!
After casually taking a few bites, Lin Chen opened his status panel:
[ Name: Lin Chen! ] [ Age: 18! ] [ Specialty: 18 cm! ] [ Realm: Two-Star Martial Artist! ] [ Qi-Blood Value: 601/1500! ] [ Combat Skill: Mad Demon Slash! Minor Mastery! (Beginner, Minor Mastery, major mastery, perfection!) ]
His Qi-Blood Value had surged from just over five hundred to 601, allowing him to directly enter the Two-Star Martial Artist stage!
To break through Two-Star Martial Artist, however, he would need 1,500 Qi-Blood Value!
The road to becoming stronger was long and arduous!
Lin Chen sighed and put away the panel.
After eating and drinking his fill, he pulled out the Mo Saber again!
It was visible to the naked eye that after the morning's frenzied slaughter, the blade had changed a little more.
Just like yesterday, there was a little more silver-white on it!
And the newly exposed area was different this time!
It was also slightly larger than yesterday's fingernail-sized patch.
A single character had just been revealed on the blade!
Demon Blade?
Lin Chen frowned, feeling that the name was rather sinister!
After all, he had picked up this blade from the Weapon Hall, and it was worth only five thousand yuan.
As for its origins, it was said to have been recovered from a battlefield!
Could he have found a treasure?
Lin Chen grinned, thinking that was indeed possible!
Didn't novels and TV dramas often write about some protagonist picking up a stone by the roadside, only for it to turn out to be an incredible treasure with an extraordinary origin?
Thinking of those possibilities.
Lin Chen stored the Demon Blade in his badge storage space!
After the morning's frenzied slaughter, Danger Zone 0911 was somewhat quiet at this moment!
Usually, at this hour, Monsters could be found everywhere amid the surrounding ruins!
But with the Black-Armored Savage Bull's death, everything had become strange!
Lin Chen, having rested up, did not remain idle.
After taking a large gulp of Crystal Banquet, he continued deeper in.
At this moment, he was no longer as nervous as he had been on his first trip outside the city.
Instead, he was as relaxed as a wealthy coal boss heading to a club as though he were going home.
But strangely, no Monsters appeared even after he walked farther ahead!
Lin Chen stopped and could not help suspecting that he had become too strong!
He had scared off those beasts!
To verify it.
Lin Chen immediately took out some chunks of the Black-Armored Savage Bull's corpse and tossed them into an overgrown plaza!
Sure enough!
The fragrant corpse of a Second-Level Demon Beast held a natural allure for First-Level Demon Beasts!
Drawn by the scent of blood, they quickly swarmed over!
Lin Chen, hiding in the shadows, swept his gaze over them and estimated that around forty First-Level Demon Beasts had been attracted!
Unhurried, he did not rush to make a move!
Instead, he continued observing!
It was clear to the naked eye that even among Monsters, the weak were prey to the strong.
The somewhat larger Monsters drove away the smaller ones!
The Monsters with greater attack power then drove away the larger First-Level Demon Beasts!
Amid the shoving and jostling, the number of Monsters quickly exceeded one hundred!
Seeing that killing all these Monsters would more or less fill his storage space, Lin Chen, who was fishing for monsters, immediately swooped down from the sky!
