It’s Time to Hunt
A huge vulture circled the dark sky above the shelter. Its scarlet eyes glinted coldly as it stared at Gu Changqing and his men, who were standing on the observation platform.
Zhang Hu narrowed his eyes and looked at the vulture in the sky. “This vulture is humongous! What is it trying to do?”
...Screech!
As soon as Zhang Hu’s voice fell, the vulture opened its beaks. An energy beam shot out from between its beaks toward the electric fence.
Boom!
When the beam of light landed on the electric fence, it did not create an opening as expected. The electric fence only shook a little and was otherwise unharmed.
At this moment, Wu Rui suddenly stepped forward from behind, laughing loudly. “This is the strongest electric fence in the world!
“Damn it! That was scary!” Zhang Hu sighed in relief upon hearing Wu Rui’s words. He really thought the energy beam would blast a big hole in the electric fence.
Lin Feng, the leader of the 108 men, said, surprised, “These mutant beasts can even spit out energy beams?”
“It’s not just energy beams. Later, when they evolve, they’ll have all kinds of powers as well. Alright, go to the armory and get your weapons. It’s time for us to hunt!” Gu Changqing said as he threw away the cigarette butt in his hand. He looked at the vulture in the sky before he added, “Leave the vulture to me.”
“Yes, Boss!”
Everyone nodded and quickly left.
“Boss, can you fly? Why don’t you leave this to me?” Zhang Hu asked. Then, he activated his Black Tiger and Demon King divine runes at the same time. With a soft buzz, the Winged Demonic Black Tiger Armor covered his body.
“Fly? It’s possible to fly with spiritual power,” Gu Changqing said. He put on the helmet of his Asura Dragon Armor before he flew toward the gates of the shelter. The red and black Asure Dragon Armor had black scales on the surface, and it looked ferocious.
Each divine rune that was awakened would bring a huge amount of spiritual energy to the host. Gu Changqing, who had 11 divine runes, naturally had a terrifying amount of spiritual power.
“This works as well? As expected of Boss! Very well, I’ll go and get weapon first!” Zhang Hu quickly flew to the armory. His divine runes only gave him armor, not weapons.
…
In just a few breaths, Gu Changqing arrived at the iron gates and quickly pressed the switch to open it. With just a thought, he activated the blood spear divine rune between his brows, and in just a moment, a blood spear appeared in his hand.
The iron gates only opened a little, enough for a person to slip through.
Gu Changqing walked out with the blood spear in his hand through the small opening.
As soon as he stepped out, hundreds of gerbils and scorpions the size of tigers along with other mutant beasts stared at him with bloodthirsty gazes. They roared and rushed forward, fighting for their prey.
Boom!
A muffled explosion rang in the air, stirring up the sand as Gu Changqing suddenly vanished into thin air. When he reappeared, the blood spear in his hand had already pierced the head of a huge scorpion. Then, a terrifying surge of energy erupted, causing the head of the scorpion to explode.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Several gerbils nearby bared their fangs and pounced over at this moment.
Gu Changqing moved at lightning speed. With each movement, the blood spear shone. In just a short moment, he decapitated the six gerbils that pounced over, causing blood to splatter all over the ground.
Although Gu Changqing’s divine runes were only at the first level, they were among the most powerful in the world. After all, thanks to Anil, they were extremely realistic. The more realistic they were, the more powerful they would be.
During the awakening, the pain would increase not only according to the number of divine runes but also according to the power of the divine rune. Needless to say, there were many people who died during the process. Without the strange gray mark, there was no doubt that Gu Changqing would have died as well.
Roar!
A tiger behind Gu Changqing opened its bloody maw and leaped toward him, aiming for his head.
Swoosh!
Gu Changqing dodged to the side and flew up. With a bang, he ruthlessly crushed the tiger to the ground.
Another six gerbils rushed over from the left, letting out sharp cries.
Swoosh!
The blood spear streaked across the sky at the six gerbils, emitting a blood-red light. In just a moment, they exploded and died. Each of them left behind a milky-white crystal core.
Gu Changqing knew the crystal cores were very tough so he did not hold back when he killed the mutant beasts. He did not have to worry about the crystal cores shattering.
After Gu Changqing killed dozens of beasts, Zhang Hu finally rushed out with a saber in hand.
“Boss, I’m here! By the way, the vulture seems to be flying away.”
“I’ll leave them to you,” Gu Changqing said to Zhang Hu before he took to the sky, chasing after the fleeing vulture.
Boom!
Zhang Hu was extremely ferocious thanks to the powers of the Black Tiger and the Demon King. He charged toward the mutant beasts with his saber and began to slaughter them. Thanks to his powerful divine runes, the mutant beasts seemed weak in comparison.
Zhang Hu had only killed a few mutant beasts when his 108 men dressed in demonic armor rushed out to join the slaughter.
“Kill them!”
…
High up in the sky.
Gu Changqing’s speed was astonishing as he chased after the fleeing vulture. To be precise, it was a bearded vulture.
The bearded vulture turned back to have a look. It could sense a great threat from Gu Changqing. Its intelligence was not inferior to that of a human now. Hence, it quickly fled for its life after sensing the danger. It did not have the courage to fight at all.
The distance between Gu Changqing and the bearded vulture rapidly shrank. At this rate, he would catch up with his target in less than one minute.
The bearded vulture let out a long and anxious cry. It spat out a few energy beams, trying to stop Gu Changqing from chasing it. Alas, a terrifying scene appeared before its eyes.
Gu Changqing raised his hand and easily blocked the energy beams.
The bearded vulture shivered and cursed inwardly, ‘Damn it! How can this human fly? How can he be so strong?!’
Swoosh!
Suddenly, chills ran up the bearded vulture’s spine. It turned around and was frightened out of its wits.
A red light flashed in the dark sky before the incomparably terrifying blood spear shot toward the bearded vulture.
The bearded vulture did not have time to react before the blood spear pierced its neck.
‘No!!!’
The bearded vulture’s huge body fell from the sky. It was filled with unwillingness as it closed its eyes. Alas, as soon as the blood spear pierced its neck, it had also broken all the bones in its body.
Gu Changqing flew over. With a fierce punch, he smashed the carcass of the bearded vulture, causing blood to rain down from the sky. Soon enough, he saw a crystal core the size of a baby’s fist.
After taking the crystal core, Gu Changqing muttered to himself, “It just mutated, but it possessed such a huge crystal core. If it was given time to grow, it would definitely be a great disaster to mankind.”
Among the mutant beasts, there were many with high potential as well. Many of them were much stronger than the others as soon as they mutated. The bearded vulture belonged to this category of mutant beasts.
Unfortunately for the bearded vulture, at this current stage, Gu Changqing was invincible. There was no doubt the only outcome for the mutant beasts that ran into him was death.
…
A black cat three times the size of a tiger carried a woman on its back as it ran toward the shelter at lightning speed.
At the same time, in the dark night of the desert, countless glowing eyes stared at them ravenously.
“Little Black, faster!”
The woman on the cat’s back had a delicate oval-shaped face. She was none other than the famous live streamer, Tuan Tuan. She was able to survive up until now thanks to her cat. At this moment, her only goal was to enter the shelter at all costs. In her opinion, the shelter was the only safe place in Longjiang City.
