Chapter 18: Familiar Hands

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

These exotic beasts formed an encirclement, giving them no chance to escape.

These roosters raised their heads slightly, their expressions filled with arrogance as they stared coldly at the two-legged creature in the encirclement. Their eyes filled with bloodlust!

Although these two-legged creatures looked very strange, they could smell a dense essence that made them drool!

The flesh and blood of mutated beasts could be used as nourishment for humans.

Similarly, mutated beasts could also eat human flesh and blood to nourish themselves!

Humans ate mutated beasts, and mutated beasts also wanted to eat humans. Nature’s law of the jungle was vividly displayed at this moment.

There were only 47 people in Chu Lingjun’s group, and there were more than 100 rooster beasts in front of them.

At this moment, everyone did not look afraid. They immediately went into strategy planning mode.

“These roosters must be Shangfu!”

“That’s right. A Shangfu has three heads, six eyes, six legs, and three wings. Its characteristics are very obvious.”

“Do you think this thing is the ancestor of our Earth Chicken?”

“Isn’t the ancestor of the chicken a dinosaur?”

“Uh, then I don’t know…”

Under normal circumstances, creatures that underwent evolution and mutation after being blessed by spiritual energy were called mutated beasts.

Those that came to Earth through the spatial rift were called exotic beasts.

However, after more than a hundred years of evolution, scientists found that there was no reproductive isolation between the mutated beasts from the alternate dimension and the creatures on Earth. They could communicate across species!

Therefore, in the past hundred years, all kinds of new species had appeared, and the difference between mutated beasts and exotic beasts had become more and more blurred.

Even professional biologists couldn’t tell the difference between many creatures, let alone ordinary people!

Therefore, in the current situation, mutated beasts and exotic beasts were now considered the same thing. After all, they were all enemies in the eyes of the human race.

They were clearly surrounded, but they were still indifferent and chatting to their hearts’ content. These arrogant Shangfus’ could not hold it in anymore!

They roared towards the sky, and all of them immediately attacked!

They raised their wings and stepped out with their iron claws, ready to mercilessly kill these two-legged creatures!

Right then, Chu Lingjun, Ding Peng, Ding Ying, and the others took out all kinds of weapons and fired back.

Several powerful seniors even raised their rifles.

In the next second, the whole forest was filled with the sounds of gunshots!

Sparks sprayed out and rained down on the Shangfu mutated beast.

The originally valiant and spirited roosters suddenly turned around and scattered, afraid that they would get shot.

A moment later, the Shangfu beasts that surrounded them all fell. Even the trees and grass around them were shot to bits, revealing the brilliant sky above them.

Against low ranking exotic beasts, firearms had the advantage of crushing them.

“Everyone, clean up the battlefield!”

Ding Ying was the class monitor of Class Eleven. He stood up and shouted, “The meat of the beast contains a special substance that can refresh one’s mind after consumption. Its effect is three times that of caffeine, and there are no side effects. Don’t waste the opportunity in front of us!”

“Yes, sir!”

Like everyone else, Chu Lingjun took out a dagger and a waterproof woven bag from his backpack and walked to a Shangfu that he had killed with a pistol.

There was only one bullet hole on the body of the Shangfu exotic beast, which happened to be the position of the exotic beast’s heart.

The rooster died in one shot and left the world peacefully.

Chen Zhiqi, who was beside her, happened to see this scene. She could not help but look at her kill.

Her enemy only fell after tanking three shots. Compared to Chu Lingjun, the difference was huge!

“Chu Lingjun, aren’t you an esper ? How can you shoot so accurately?”

Chu Lingjun replied, “I’m good at archery. A pistol and a bow have the same mechanics.”

Chen Zhiqi rolled her eyes and looked at Chu Lingjun’s mutated beast. She obviously did not believe it.

Her fair cheeks puffed up and her left hand was on her waist. She was obviously unconvinced with what he said.

Espers had low physical fitness, so it was difficult for them to handle recoil, so their aim may not be as accurate.

On the other hand, martial artists were born with strong vitality, strength, and stable wrists. In the hands of powerful martial artists, the recoil would amount to nothing.

It was normal for Chen Zhiqi to be unconvinced that she was inferior to Chu Lingjun in her field.

Chu Lingjun dissected the beast bit by bit according to the knowledge he had learned in the biological anatomy class.

Feathers, internal organs, fat, chicken heads, and other organs were not needed. They could not be sold for much money, and forcefully carrying them would only be a burden.

In the end, under Chu Lingjun’s dissection, the most essential 20 pounds of lean meat was removed and placed into a woven bag.

After cleaning up the battlefield, everyone slowly trudged forward again.

Everyone’s strategy was very simple. If they encountered a few exotic beasts, they would go up and engage in hand-to-hand combat to hone their combat skills.

If they encountered an enemy that they couldn’t defeat, or if there were too many exotic beasts, they would take the lead and shoot at them.

Shan Qiuru had been observing the entire scene from the top of the tree. She would only intervene when a student was in mortal danger or was severely injured.

The rest of the time, she could be seen staring at them in boredom, yawning from time to time.

During this period of time, Chu Lingjun, Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the others also had a few opportunities to fight.

Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the others were so excited that their faces turned red.

In the open space in front of the forest, Chen Zhiqi was fighting with a mutated monkey.

This mutated monkey was nearly two meters tall. It had sharp claws on its hands and feet. There was also a pair of fangs protruding from its mouth, making it look ferocious.

Although this mutated monkey was only a Rank One exotic beast, it moved swiftly. It moved about on the open ground seamlessly, jumping quickly and dodging their attacks.

Chen Zhiqi could not catch up with the monkey for a moment with her long sword. It was as if she was being played.

The surrounding crowd could not help but burst into laughter, making Chen Zhiqi angry and embarrassed.

Chen Zhiqi’s swordsmanship was indeed good, but her combat experience was still a little rusty.

However, this little girl was tenacious. She gritted her teeth and persevered. In the end, she successfully caught a flaw in the mutated monkey and killed it with a slash!

Chen Zhiqi put her sword back into its sheath and raised her head happily. She was valiant and spirited, and she returned to the team proudly.

Having successfully defeated her enemy, her face was glowing.

“Chu Lingjun, it’s your turn to go. Be careful, these mutated monkeys are very fast.”

Chen Zhiqi seriously imparted her battle experience to Chu Lingjun, like a warm-hearted senior.

It was already so difficult for a warrior like her to deal with the beast, so it would be even more difficult for a frail esper like Chu Lingjun to overcome the beast.

“Okay, thank you. I’ll keep that in mind.”

Chu Lingjun nodded and walked forward.

Shan Qiuru waved her hand, and a mutated monkey was thrown into the middle of the empty space.

The mutated monkey looked at Chu Lingjun and bared its fangs and brandished its claws in anger. Its body moved quickly, turning into an afterimage as it rushed toward Chu Lingjun.

This mutated monkey seemed confident in its movements. It would form an S shape for a moment, then a Z shape to throw him off. It did not give Chu Lingjun a chance to have a steady aim.

It quickly rushed towards Chu Lingjun, deciding to pour all its anger on this seemingly easy target in front of it.

“Chu Lingjun, run-!”

Chen Zhiqi was a little surprised when she saw the mutated monkey approaching Chu Lingjun quickly, but Chu Lingjun did not move.

However, before she could finish her sentence… A blue electric arc suddenly erupted from Chu Lingjun’s body!

The blue electric arc was as thick as a hemp rope. It accurately predicted the mutated monkey’s landing point and shot it!

The blue electric arc wrapped around its body, and the mutated monkey’s fur and flesh quickly turned black and carbonized. Its body stiffened and trembled, and white foam came out of its mouth!

After a while, it died.

Chu Lingjun successfully killed it!

“Sorry, what did you just say?” Chu Lingjun turned his head and looked at Chen Zhiqi with a puzzled expression.

“No, no… nothing”

Chen Zhiqi’s face was flushed red. At this moment, she just wanted to find a hole to hide in!
