By now, the man knew he was being used as bait, but continuing forward might still give him a sliver of a chance to survive.
If he turned back, the native behind him might simply shoot him.
In a dark corner beyond the flashlight's reach, a mutated chimpanzee, the so-called Tyrant, was staring intently at the man walking ahead.
His breathing grew heavier and heavier. Suddenly!
The mutated chimpanzee seemed to find its opportunity and leaped straight down from an abandoned drainpipe.
"Roar!"
"Aah!!"
The man was instantly pinned beneath the mutated chimpanzee and let out an agonized wail. The next moment, his voice cut off abruptly.
The Tyrant had actually ripped the man's head straight off. After tearing open the skull, the Tyrant greedily sucked out the brains inside.
Naturally, Lin Feng wasn't going to stand by when the Tyrant suddenly appeared, but it had all happened so fast that the man's skull had already been cracked open by the time Lin Feng was ready to fire.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!!
Lin Feng immediately fired several shots at the Tyrant's head.
However, the bullets actually threw off sparks when they struck the Tyrant's head, and every shot ricocheted away.
"Holy crap, what kind of monster is this?!"
Lin Feng swallowed and began retreating.
"Roar!!"
Little Velociraptor also sensed an unprecedented danger and curled his entire body up. He wasn't afraid; he was preparing to fight to the death.
"Little guy, fall back!"
After Lin Feng barked the order, Little Velociraptor hurriedly obeyed and retreated.
By then, the Tyrant had finished eating the brains and turned its attention to Lin Feng.
"Roar! Roar!!"
Bang!
Lin Feng decisively fired a grenade at the Tyrant, landing it precisely at its feet.
Countless tiny fragments struck the Tyrant's lower body after the explosion, but the effect was quite limited.
It only bled a little.
Even those minor wounds quickly healed.
"What the hell, are you kidding me?!"
Watching this absurd scene, Lin Feng didn't know what to say.
The good news was that grenades could damage the Tyrant. The bad news was that this bastard could fucking regenerate!
I can't fight it head-on. I'll have to kite it.
The Tyrant looked furious after being hit by the explosion. With a roar, it charged recklessly at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng quickly loaded another grenade and fired it.
Boom!
The grenade injured the Tyrant's legs again, noticeably slowing it down. Lin Feng also noticed that after the grenade exploded, the Tyrant instinctively covered its eyes with both arms.
Any creature would instinctively protect its weak points when faced with danger.
Judging by what the Tyrant was doing, Lin Feng suspected its eyes were its weakness.
Lin Feng quickly changed magazines, then began firing uninterrupted bursts at the Tyrant's eyes.
With its weak point constantly under attack, the Tyrant could only keep shielding its eyes with its arms. That blocked its vision, leaving it standing in place taking fire.
However, Lin Feng's magazine only held thirty rounds. Even firing in bursts, he soon emptied it.
Once the suppressing fire stopped, the Tyrant immediately lowered its arms and charged at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng chuckled. It really was brainless, falling for such a simple feint. He still had ten rounds left in his gun. If all ten went into its eyes, they would at least seriously injure it, even if they didn't kill it.
With Eagle Eye's sixteen-times magnification and Intermediate Firearms Proficiency, Lin Feng quickly locked onto the Tyrant's soybean-sized eyeballs.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!!!
All ten consecutive shots struck the Tyrant's eyeballs.
The Tyrant had no time to block the bullets and collapsed as they struck.
After waiting a while, Lin Feng still hadn't heard a system notification. It seemed the Tyrant wasn't dead.
Seeing this, Lin Feng hurriedly fired a grenade at the Tyrant's head.
After a brief delay, the grenade exploded beneath the Tyrant's head.
Boom!!
Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and brains splattered in all directions.
Even Lin Feng, standing far away, was caught in the spray.
Only after shaking the brains off his clothes did Lin Feng breathe a sigh of relief.
The Tyrant should be dead now, right?
Soon, the system notification sounded.
Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission, Monster Hunter. The reward has been issued. Strength +2.
Lin Feng immediately felt the strength within his body increase a little.
He walked over to examine the Tyrant's corpse, but found nothing of value.
"All that effort... feels like a bit of a loss!"
Lin Feng kicked the Tyrant's corpse as he spoke, feeling somewhat annoyed.
Fortunately, that man was also a survivor, so his elevator should be nearby.
Hopefully there's something good in his elevator. But considering how utterly incapable of fighting the man had looked, Lin Feng didn't want to get his hopes up.
Continuing forward, Lin Feng soon found an elevator with its doors open.
The elevator was actually level five, and its material storage area had already appeared.
After entering the elevator, Lin Feng first checked its material storage area.
He discovered that he could actually take the things inside out.
Now that's nice.
Lin Feng had been worried he wouldn't be able to retrieve them.
"Hmm? What does this mean?"
After Lin Feng pressed the material storage area's withdraw button, an option popped up on the screen.
[Transfer this elevator's supplies directly into survivor (Lin Feng)'s elevator?]
"It can actually be this convenient??"
Half doubtful, Lin Feng clicked "Yes."
Soon, the supplies originally in the material storage area began rapidly disappearing.
Lin Feng left it alone. He would find out when he returned to his elevator later.
There was also some food in this person's elevator, but it was all biscuits and canned food.
Although Lin Feng didn't like eating those, he packed it all up anyway. He could take it back and sell it.
Aside from those things, a foam box wrapped in plastic film in the middle of the elevator caught Lin Feng's attention.
He reached out and ran his hand across the film. The water droplets inside immediately fell, letting Lin Feng see exactly what was underneath.
"Are these... plants?"
Lin Feng scratched his head. Was this guy growing crops??
Holy shit, that's impressive.
After thinking it over, Lin Feng decided to carry the foam box back. Maybe vegetables really would grow in it later, and he could have a change of taste.
Lin Feng wasn't particularly interested in anything else. He took a few pieces of clothing and returned to his elevator.
There were still over thirty minutes until the doors closed. Seeing Little Velociraptor outside, working hard to relieve himself, Lin Feng was in no hurry to call him back.
There probably wasn't any danger left in the sewer now.
After setting down the heavy foam box, Lin Feng went over to check the material storage area.
Sure enough, there were more upgrade materials.
He only needed another three hundred kilograms of iron, twenty gold coins, and one hundred kilograms each of copper and aluminum to upgrade the elevator. He had no idea where that guy had gotten so much gold.
Taking a closer look, Lin Feng discovered there were a full one hundred kilograms!
