Chapter 5: Mutation, Elite Black-scaled Dog

Walking up to the deadly zombie, Summer Nightspirit took out a dagger and carefully cut through its shattered skull. Because low-level zombies will have a very small chance of producing the lowest-level spirit crystal, the white crystal.

The spirit crystal is a completely new product after the end of the world. It is the energy essence that is born in the body after the beast has evolved and absorbed the free aura between heaven and earth.

When a martial artist is cultivating, he can greatly speed up his cultivation by absorbing the pure energy in this precious crystal.

Spirit crystals can be divided into five levels according to the amount of energy contained in them and the purity of them, from low to high, such as white crystal, green crystal, blue crystal, amethyst, and orange crystal. Each level is divided into low, medium, and high, with an exchange ratio of 100:1.

There is no doubt that the spirit crystal is the hardest currency in circulation in the post-apocalyptic New World. A lowest-grade low-grade white crystal can meet all the expenses of an ordinary person's family of three for at least a month's clothing, food, housing and transportation, which shows the preciousness.

And the spiritual power of zombies is almost non-existent, and it is almost impossible for low-level creatures with confused consciousness and no sanity to produce such extremely precious energy crystals.

"This ...... Good luck. ”

A tiny white crystal, crystal clear throughout, sparkles more and more in the sunlight, mysterious and magnificent, not inferior to the world's top diamonds before the end of the world.

Xia Yeling looked at the white crystal that had just been excavated and sighed with joy, he didn't expect to be so lucky to dig up the white crystal on the low-level zombie.

There was such a rich harvest in less than a quarter of an hour after leaving the city, and it was really a high-risk and high-reward.

It is no wonder that even though the bloody lessons of the previous hunters who were mutilated and severed limbs and even abandoned corpses in the wilderness were close at hand, the warriors would immediately set off out of the city to hunt and fight after they had finished their cultivation, even if they were scarred by every danger, they would never retreat in a safe area of the city. Ordinary people are even more desperate to put life and death aside, dreaming of getting a chance to get out of the city, and delusionally hoping to get rich overnight.

"Acquired Support Skill: [Gathering]."

"[Gathering] (Elementary), which can slightly increase the chance of obtaining loot, and increase the level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert, Master, Grandmaster) by increasing proficiency."

A row of data clearly appeared in front of Summer Nightling's eyes.

"I see."

Summer Night Spirit found that it was not by chance that he had obtained the White Crystal from the low-level zombie by chance, but that with the assistance of the auxiliary skill [Gathering Technique], the acquisition rate of the Spirit Crystal had increased significantly.

One of the biggest difficulties in the cultivation of martial artists is the accumulation of spirit crystals. Only with sufficient spirit crystals can we provide the necessary resources for cultivation, and the realm of martial artists can be as refined as flying. Instead of just grinding time and absorbing the free aura between heaven and earth very slowly, falling behind people step by step. The so-called wealth and law land, the first thing the wealth said is this.

The acquisition of [Gathering Technique] has perfectly solved this biggest difficulty, and it is foreseeable that the time for accumulating wealth compared to ordinary warriors will be greatly shortened, and the number will be doubled.

Powerful thief skills, experience points increase by leaps and bounds, and wealth accumulates rapidly. It is not an exaggeration to say that the thief system can be said to be the number one artifact cultivated by martial artists in the new world of the apocalypse.

The surprise of the thief system is unbelievably precious. The Summer Night Spirit, who had always been unfazed, was so excited that his whole body trembled slightly.

Summer Night Spirit stabilized his excitement, dismantled the zombie vertebrae needed for the mission, and continued to move cautiously and quickly after retrieving the arrows, and soon the western suburbs of the burial bones appeared in front of him.

A place of bones.

Legend has it that in the Steel War Leopard City Guard, a group of warriors were led here to encircle and suppress the second-order king, the fierce beast Silver Sideburns and Blood Wolf.

Unexpectedly, the silver sideburns blood wolf was ferocious and cunning, and the wolves and various fierce beasts that united with his men were several times that of human warriors, secretly ambushing in the nearby dense forest. Appear at the same time as the human warriors enter the ambush circle, and slaughter the human warriors in a frenzy. In an instant, the defenseless human warriors were killed, and nearly half of them were killed.

At that time, Fan Junxiong, the first owner of the Wild Lion Martial Arts Hall, who was just an ordinary body refining martial artist, was stunned when he saw this desperate situation, and his heart was anxious. At the critical moment, his potential exploded, and he successfully opened the red-level soul sea and advanced to a super martial artist. With his own strength, he killed the silver sideburns blood wolf in a rage. The wolves were in chaos in an instant, and the human warriors took the opportunity to counterattack.

The largest battle in the history of the Rock City Frontier ended in a crushing human victory. Countless top warriors died here, and later generations called this place the place where bones were buried.

Due to the nourishment of the flesh and blood essence of the corpses of a large number of human warriors and fierce beasts and wolves, the soil here is fertile, and it is rich in a second-grade medicinal material that can quickly promote the complete healing of bones - Iron Bone Grass.

The aura near the burial ground is vigorous, and it is a huge attraction for high-level fierce beasts. The [Healing Elixir] mission is very dangerous, so the requirements for the level of the warrior are relatively high. And because of the high demand for the Warrior Guild's Iron Bone Grass, it is released daily all year round. There is an endless stream of warriors who usually come here to try their luck and pick up leaks, and it is lucky to be able to grab one or two at the end of the day. However, due to the fact that the warriors had been carefully preparing for the winter hunt organized by the Rock City Lord in the near future, few people took on such a time-consuming and laborious task.

The leaves are dark, the leathery leaves are hard as iron and have serrated teeth, and if you are not careful to collect them, you will cut your fingers, and they are gray and low, making them very difficult to find.

However, due to the existence of the thief system, all targets in the Summer Night's sight have a scarlet blood bar on their heads, which is very eye-catching and incompatible with the surrounding environment, preventing sneak attacks and making it extremely convenient to hunt targets.

After careful observation and found that there were no fierce beasts lurking, Xia Yeling quickly entered the place where the bones were buried, and saw the blood bars displayed by the eye-catching iron bone grass in the messy dead grass, and soon easily collected three complete iron bone grass.

"Good, see. The fourth. ”

Flutter!

There was a sudden chill behind him, and a murderous wind struck from behind, and the cautious and vigilant summer night spirit who had been putting his fingers on the full bowstring suddenly turned his body to the side and turned his head to look.

I saw a huge vicious dog with a pair of steel claws, with almost no flaws in the fine black hard scale armor around it, a pair of scarlet eyes like blood, panting with a thick snort full of crazy and violent beastliness, and swung fiercely from behind towards the place where the Summer Night Spirit was originally standing, and the steel claws as sharp as knives tore through the air!

The next moment, with the sound of the air exploding, the terrifying dog's steel claws left a terrible crumble on the hard cemented earth, and the rubble flew down!

[Insight into the key points] is instantly opened.

"Blackscale Dog (First Order Elite), Hostile Dog, Level 6. Attributes: Strength 51, Agility 44, Constitution 47, Spirit 13, Special Skill: Swift Evasion, Health: 104/104. ”

"The levels of fierce beasts at all levels are low, intermediate, high, elite, and king. Difficulty: B! ”

Black-scaled dog, Difficulty: B. The level gap is five levels, four times his own physical attributes, and more than a hundred health points, giving birth to a sixth-level elite with special skills, the most powerful and difficult one of all sixth-level fierce beasts. It is possible to effortlessly annihilate an elite martial artist hunting squad with an average level of six, and in the face of a summer night spirit who is only one level, it is not surprising that it is definitely a crushing one-sided slaughter.

[Insight into the key points] to open successfully! Eyes, abdomen, three vital points.

With a light breath, the fingers that had been clasped on the full bowstring suddenly let go, and the three-edged arrow under the heavy pull was instantly fired, and the pitch-black arrow pierced the air and roared out with a piercing wind!

The empty elite black-scaled dog was furious, the scarlet beast's pupils burst out, and the bloody mouth full of sharp teeth and viscous saliva splashed everywhere, unleashed a violent and manic sharp beast howl at the summer night spirit unwillingly, and the murderous aura overflowed, and it rose to the sky again like a devastating and devastating attack with fierce giant claws.

Bang!

The galloping triangular arrows finally struck, and the unprepared elite black-scaled dog just turned its head slightly out of beast instinct, and the huge body of the volley jump attack was hit in the head by the arrow, and was hit down by the hammer-like galloping arrow, the flesh exploded and splashed, tumbling and falling to the ground, and let out an angry and sharp deafening roar in pain.

"Black-scaled dog (elite), special skill: quick dodge, successful launch."

"The critical attack failed."

"―7, ranged damage, normal."

The triangular arrow grazed the scarlet pupils and slammed into the head of the elite black-scaled dog, full of pitch-black fur, blooming a flower of flesh and blood full of violent beauty.

Sticky blood flowed down the grim wound into the round eyes of the brutal beast, staring at the Summer Night Spirit with murderous intent.

The next moment, a sharp roar that shattered the eardrums exploded in his ears, and the shattered and eroded flesh wriggled wildly to squeeze the nailed arrow out of his body. The terrifying black-scaled dog that has been hit hard is constantly dripping with foul-smelling mucus mixed with flesh and saliva, which looks extremely hideous, and completely falls into the anger and madness of life and death.

The roaring black-scaled dog's sharp claws rubbed and scraped the ground hysterically, like a runaway mad chariot, constantly emitting a huge roar full of explosive power, and the fangs under the bloody mouth were exposed, and once again desperately soared into the air, accompanied by a gust of fishy cold wind, and pounced forward.

Huge level gaps, terrifying razor-sharp claws, and blazing speeds like a blast.

Just scratch a little bit by the crazy attack of the violent black-scaled dog. In the next moment, there was no doubt that Summer Night Spirit's thin body would be completely torn to pieces, and blood and internal organs, flesh and bones would be sprinkled all over the earth.

"I dodged it. Well, spell it! ”

Summer Night Spirit chuckled self-deprecatingly. The bones, muscles, qi, blood and muscles, the whole body is once again completed in harmony at high speed, and the consciousness of the enemy is as precise and concentrated as a machine.

Soul Gathering Forging Technique. The muscles and bones are turned on in unison!

In the next moment, Summer Night Spirit slammed straight on his back and fell to the ground.

By a fraction of a second! The razor-sharp claws of the violent black-scaled dog narrowly brushed against the falling Summer Night Spirit in the air, swinging into the air again. The fierce wind left a shallow streak of blood on the bare forearm, causing a tingling sensation in the summer night.

Swing your arms on your back, draw arrows and strings, charge and pull hard, abdomen critical, precise aiming, and shoot out sharply.

Flutter!

The three-edged arrow instantly tore through the soft belly of the elite black-scaled dog's empty door, and completely submerged into the black-scaled dog's huge body, and the corners of Summer Nightling's mouth showed a crazy and satisfied smile.

Before he had time to shoot the arrow with his bow again, his slender hands and fingers were like knives, and he stabbed fiercely at the terrifying black-scaled dog that crossed the volley, and he was ruthless along the wound that the arrow had not entered, and he tore it with all his might, and the huge wound was further expanded until it rolled and cracked, and the flesh and blood were exposed, which looked terrifying!

In the snap of a finger, the warring sides staggered.

The sixth-level elite black-scaled dog staggered and fell to the ground weakly, letting out a bitter roar of pain. Sticky blood and shattered organs fell from the air, spilling onto the ground, and the ground was covered with hideous scarlet.

"Soul Forging Technique detected. The muscles and bones opened in unison. All stats are increased to 210% for 10 seconds. ”

"―29, ranged damage, vital attack, critical hit."

"―14, Normal damage (tearing and bleeding), lasting."

"―16, Normal damage (tearing and bleeding), lasting."

"―13, Normal damage (tearing and bleeding), continuous."

"Ding! When triggering a Hunting Compound Bow attack, there is a 1% chance of inflicting a stun. The target is stunned for 2 seconds. ”

"Goodbye, then."

A cold smile tugged at the corner of Xia Yeling's mouth, and he calmly wound the arrow again.

Flutter!

The low screech that tore through the air sounded again in the cold wind.

Between the lightning and flint, the three-edged arrows were as fast as thunder, roaring!

In the scarlet pupils of the black-scaled dog, which was once mighty and proud, the reflection of the pitch-black arrows continued to approach and magnify.

But it could only watch it motionless, the life-saving technique 'Quick Dodge' could not be activated at all, and the vertiginous body could not make any resistance, and its mouth could only continue to let out a low roar of despair and fear, until the arrow feathers finally completely submerged into its eye sockets.

With a bang, the viscous vitreous serous fluid of the eyeball burst violently from the terrifying wound cracks, and the flesh and brain were shattered and squirted directly out of the pierced broken skull.

In an instant, the miserable sorrow came to an abrupt end.

"―37, ranged damage (excess), vital attack, critical hit."

"Gathering Spirit Forging Technique. The muscles and bones are over in unison. ”

"Successfully skip the level and kill the sixth-level elite, and the hostile target dies."

Hearing the sound of the system prompt for successfully killing the target, Xia Yeling's tense body suddenly relaxed, and he collapsed to the ground exhausted, constantly gasping for air.

His mind subconsciously sorted out the results of this life-and-death struggle, and after thinking for a moment, he whispered suspiciously: "Black-scaled dog? It seems to be the mysterious giant dog on the latest bronze-level bounty order of the Warrior Guild. ”

"Coming from behind? Before starting to collect, there is definitely no scarlet blood bar of the ferocious beast in the vicinity. Okay, so let me see where you came from......
