"Captain, this is too much of a cheat! My legs can't handle it!"

As Wang Jiangang ran, he joked, "A man can't say he can't. Besides, if your two legs aren't enough, use three."

"Damn it! When I catch that bastard, I'll fucking kill you!"

Just then, Jiang Fan had already drawn the bowstring to its fullest extent, nocking two arrows at the same time, his Psychic Power attaching itself to the arrows.

The target: the eyes of the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig.

With a "whoosh!", the arrow, imbued with Psychic Power, streaked past Zhou Xiaoyan and Wang Jiangang like a meteor, and then, to their astonishment, struck the two eyes of the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig.

The next second, the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered during Chinese New Year, and collapsed to the ground in agony.

Zhou Xiaoyan and Wang Jiangang suddenly stopped in their tracks, staring in disbelief at the scene before them.

"One bow—two arrows?!"

And the hit rate is still 100%; if I say I'll hit you in the eye, I absolutely mean it.

Yang Xiaoqiang and Miao Xi exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

They knew Jiang Fan was a skilled archer, but they didn't expect Jiang Fan to be even stronger than they imagined.

Furthermore, they never saw Jiang Fan show any fear from beginning to end. Such composure and calmness were not something a 22-year-old should be able to display, especially since this young man was Little White had never even left the fortress.

Jiang Fan looked at Yang Xiaoqiang, "Aren't we going to catch it quickly?"

"Oh, right." Yang Xiaoqiang immediately took out a special monster-hunting net and put the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig inside.

Jiang Fan, seeing something like this for the first time, asked curiously, "What is this?"

Yang Xiaoqiang replied, "This is a monster-hunting net specifically designed for capturing monsters. It was developed by the Demon Beast Research Institute, and the one we have is made of the lowest-grade F-level alloy. Don't underestimate it just because it's the lowest grade; ordinary people can't get their hands on this, and even if they did, it wouldn't be cheap."

Upon hearing this explanation, Jiang Fan nodded, indicating that he understood.

Suddenly, a system notification sounded in my mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, Master! You have successfully hunted One Star monster. Good deed done, points +50]

"Hmm?" Jiang Fan muttered to himself.

Hunting monsters earns you points? Is that considered a good deed?

On second thought, it makes sense. For humans, monsters are natural enemies, and dealing with them is doing good for all of humanity.

In his previous life, he witnessed firsthand the beast tide tearing down high walls and wantonly hunting humans for food; the scene was so cruel it was like a living hell.

Countless people watched their parents, children, wives, and husbands die tragically, their bodies torn apart, their bones even chewed up and swallowed by monstrous beasts.

Therefore, for Jiang Fan, it was not a matter of good or evil; it was a battle for survival between races.

Jiang Fan will one day go to the wilderness to hunt down monsters and slaughter them until the world is in chaos!

Just as he was lost in thought, he suddenly realized something and quickly took a step to the side, causing the large hand that was climbing up from behind to miss its target.

That's right, the person who was about to take a picture of him was none other than Wang Jiangang.

"Hey, you're pretty quick-witted."

"That's because you're too strong, and I'm not strong enough to handle it," Jiang Fan explained.

From this, everyone was once again certain that Jiang Fan's perception was indeed extraordinary.

After all, Wang Jiangang had just patted Jiang Fan on the back from behind, and Jiang Fan had no eyes behind him, yet he easily dodged it.

Wang Jiangang continued, "But you're really amazing, kid. You managed to shoot two arrows with one bow, and even when that beast was running wildly, you accurately shot it through the eye. To be honest, I haven't admired many people, but you're definitely one of them."

Yang Xiaoqiang looked at Jiang Fan and said, "You're a hero this time. After we complete the mission, the two million commission is all yours. Consider it a bonus for you, the newcomer."

Jiang Fan refused, saying, "We all went on this mission together. Besides, if Brother Gang and Brother Zhou hadn't helped stop it and distracted the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig, I might not have been able to hit it on the first try. So let's split the commission."

This statement surprised everyone.

After all, that's two million—a huge sum! Most people would find it hard to resist such a temptation.

Not to mention that Jiang Fan is still a young man with no experience.

Also, they just heard Yao Lingling say that Jiang Fan borrowed the money to register, which shows how desperately he needs money.

In this situation, to be able to turn down a huge sum of two million is truly remarkable in terms of character and integrity.

Yang Xiaoqiang asked, "Are you sure you want to split the cost equally?"

"Yes." Jiang Fan nodded without hesitation.

"Hahaha!" Wang Jiangang reached out to strangle Jiang Fan, but Jiang Fan easily dodged. Wang Jiangang didn't feel embarrassed at all, because he casually grabbed Zhou Xiaoyan next to him and started strangling her.

" Tang Fan, you're really loyal! You're becoming more and more to my liking."

They were slightly unhappy with Yang Xiaoqiang's arrangement, after all, they had put in a lot of hard work, but it was only a little.

As the boss said, Jiang Fan a newcomer, and they hadn't actually made any significant contributions.

First of all, it was Jiang Fan who found the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig, and it was Jiang Fan, by his own strength, shot out the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig's eyes.

Jiang Fan deserves immense credit for their successful capture of the Eight-Legged Hedgehog Pig.

But now that Jiang Fan has proposed to split the two million equally, they can't help but think more highly of him.

Miao Xi nodded to Jiang Fan and, unusually, said, "You're very good."

"Oh my! Miao Xi can actually compliment people now, that's rare!" Zhou Xiaoyan teased. "I've never heard you compliment anyone before, at least you've never complimented me."

Miao Xi glanced at Zhou Xiaoyan indifferently, "He's ugly, I don't want to praise him."

"I disagree with that. I just have small eyes. Besides, Tang Fan is covering his face, how do you know he's handsome?"

After saying that, Zhou Xiaoyan suddenly thought of something and shifted her attention to Jiang Fan.

"We're teammates now, come on, take off your mask, let me see what you look like?"

As Zhou Xiaoyan spoke, she made a move to remove the mask from Jiang Fan's face.

Jiang Fan quickly dodged, "I look terrifying, I'm afraid I'll scare you, so you'd better not look."

"It's alright. What kind of terrifying beasts haven't we seen? We're mentally strong; we won't be scared."

Jiang Fan dodged Zhou Xiaoyan's outstretched hand once again.

"You're not afraid of being scared, I'm afraid of being embarrassed."

" Xiaoyan, don't make things difficult for Tang Fan. Everyone has weaknesses that they can't expose, just like you, you only have two legs to walk on," Wang Jiangang mocked.

It would have been better if it hadn't been mentioned, because the mention of it reminded Zhou Xiaoyan of what had just happened.

"If you say I'm no good, I'll fight you to the death."

The two of them wrestled together again.

Yang Xiaoqiang rubbed his forehead; he was already used to it.

" Tang Fan, let's not split this commission equally. Here's the deal: you take one million, and we'll split the rest."

Jiang Fan initially wanted to refuse, but in the end he nodded.
