Chapter 13 - Discovery! Hunting the Mutated Beast
Chapter 13 – Discovery! Hunting the Mutated Beast
The entire chat channel fell silent in an instant. No one spoke for a long time.
At that moment, everyone could tell that the Level 1 mutated beasts were incredibly powerful. Even Level 2 experts were completely helpless against them!
“That’s not right! I just checked, and Qin Feng is now ranked 5th among the top players.”
“Oh, you’re right!”
After a while, some people started chatting again in the chat channel. Seeing this, everyone switched to the leaderboard channel.
Qin Feng’s curiosity was piqued, so he also switched to the leaderboard channel …
[911 Newbie Village Level Ranking].1st – Liu Xuan, Level 3.
2nd – Longshan, Level 2.
3rd – Wu Yong, Level 2.
4th – Yu Wen, Level 2.
5th – Qin Feng, Level 2.
6th – Gu Ming, Level 2.
7th – Lei Jue, Level 2.
…
10th – Liu Yuan, Level 2 …
Huh!
He was actually in 5th place, and Liu Yuan dropped to 10th place.
Strange!
How come someone said he was in eleventh place just now?
Right, those people checked his ranking after the announcement was made. But then he killed five grassland gray wolves in a row, and his ranking shot up. It all happened in just a few minutes, and those people didn’t notice. Realizing this, Qin Feng had an epiphany.
He then switched back to the chat channel, where astonishment filled the air.
“Oh my god! Qin Feng is actually ranked 5th.”
“So fast! Five minutes ago, he was still 11th, and now he’s 5th!”
“Yes! Qin Feng is amazing!”
At that moment, Lei Jue’s profile picture lit up.
He started speaking too.
Lei Jue: “After all this fuss, Qin Feng’s ranking is higher than Liu Yuan’s. But come to think of it, would a mutated beast that awards reputation for the first kill be weak?”
Lei Jue: “Some people previously claimed that Level 1 mutated beasts weren’t that strong. It’s really laughable!”
His words were mocking, clearly targeting Liu Yuan. The comments section grew tense. After all, Liu Yuan was also a Level 2 expert and ranked in the top ten. No one dared to speak recklessly.
In this world filled with slaughter and no one to control it, offending powerful individuals was unwise.
However, Lei Jue ranked 7th, higher than Liu Yuan. He wasn’t afraid of Liu Yuan at all. Liu Yuan naturally saw Lei Jue’s words. But instead of responding, he quietly left. At that point, he had no face to stay in the chat channel.
The chat channel remained awkward for quite some time, with few people speaking. Just when everyone felt the awkward atmosphere, another person’s profile picture lit up.
“Brothers, my boss Liu and three teammates are dead. I’m the only one who managed to escape, sob~! Sob~!”
“Huh! Are you from Liu Yunchang’s group?”
“Yes! Almost everyone in our group got wiped out. If it weren’t for my speed talent, I would probably be dead too. Sob! Sob!”
“Oh my god! Was that beast so terrifying? Five of you, one Level 2 expert and four Level 1s; even if you can’t defeat a Level 1 mutated beast, shouldn’t you at least retreat?”
“The one above me, you have no idea how terrifying Fangtooths are. Its strength is even scarier than a Level 2 ferocious beast!”
“Oh my god! Stronger than a Level 2 ferocious beast?!”
“Hiss! This is too terrifying!”
Everyone was amazed.
The survivor continued, “Everyone, I’m all alone now, my arm is injured, and I’m feeling really scared! Does any team need another member? Can someone guide me? Sob, sob!”
“Where are you? Is the Fangtooth near your location?”
“I’m forty miles south of the Newbie Village. The Fangtooth is nearby, not far away. But it didn’t chase me. Great sir, are you coming to guide me?”
“No! I just want to know the location of the Fangtooth, so I can avoid it as much as possible!”
“…”
The group fell silent.
But Qin Feng’s eyes lit up. The survivor had revealed the location of the Fangtooth in the chat history. It seemed that his opportunity had arrived!
The Fangtooth was a Level 1 mutated beast. By killing it, he could gain energy and extract attributes. Moreover, mutated beasts provided two to three times the energy compared to ordinary beasts. What’s more, the Fangtooth had killed four humans.
As long as Qin Feng found the Fangtooth, he could also find those four bodies. And then, he would be able to extract some new talents.
With these thoughts in mind, Qin Feng became excited and hurriedly headed towards the location of the Fangtooth …
At the same time, at the edge of the Newbie Plain, near a riverbank. A fierce battle had just taken place here. A hideous and ugly giant frog lay dead on the ground, and blood and green fluid stained the area. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
That giant frog was a Level 2 ferocious beast. Standing beside the giant frog’s corpse were three individuals, each with a proud expression on their faces. One of them was Liu Xuan, the first person in the Newbie Village to awaken a C-Level talent. He was also the first to reach Level 3 among the newbies. On Liu Xuan’s left stood a muscular man named Wu Yong, a professional boxer on Blue Star.
After entering this world, he awakened a D-rank talent – Power Rampage.
On Liu Xuan’s right stood a burly man weighing around three hundred jin (around 150kgs, 330.6 lbs), carrying a giant shield that was as tall as a person. His name was Long Shan, a professional sumo wrestler on Blue Star.
After entering this world, he awakened a D-rank talent – Physique Rampage.
All three of them were outstanding individuals in the Newbie Village.
Their strong alliance made them the most formidable group among all the teams, and they leveled up at an extremely fast pace.
Currently, Liu Xuan ranked 1st on the leaderboard. Long Shan was 2nd, and Wu Yong was 3rd.
“The energy provided by this Level 2 ferocious beast is much greater than that of a Level 1 ferocious beast!”
At that moment, Liu Xuan looked at the giant frog’s corpse at his feet and smiled with satisfaction.
Wu Yong nodded. “Yes! I just gained 14 points of energy. I’m now Level 2 (276/300). If I kill two more ferocious beasts, I’ll reach Level 3. By the way, Long Shan, what’s your progress?”
“I’m Level 2 (291/300)!”
“Damn! Long Shan, if you kill just one more ferocious beast, you’ll reach Level 3. The second-place reward, the Silver Chest, is yours!”
Long Shan chuckled, “Well, that’s not necessarily true! There’s always someone better than us, and there are always higher levels!”
As he spoke, he opened the leaderboard channel.
But as soon as he looked, he was shocked.
“Damn! Ten minutes ago, Qin Feng was ranked 11th. And now, he’s already ranked 5th!”
“What?!” Liu Xuan and Wu Yong were equally astonished and quickly checked the rankings.
When they saw it, they were dumbfounded.
“Damn! Qin Feng is leveling up so fast!”
“Enough talking! Let’s kill ferocious beasts! We need to level up quickly and not let this guy catch up to us!”
With a sense of urgency, the three of them hastily left the area …
Meanwhile, on the other side, Qin Feng, following the address from the chat history, headed towards the area where the Fangtooth appeared.
With the help of his speed talent, he travelled at an incredibly fast pace.
Half an hour later, he finally arrived near the location where the Fangtooth had been sighted.
His powerful sense of smell allowed him to catch a faint scent of blood in the air.
