Chapter 69: Chapter 65: BUG Skill
CRACK—!
It shot out from underground. The Terror Crocodile roared, its long tail whipping through the air, shattering the sound barrier as it swung over like a colossal hammer.
The three of them flickered and scattered.
BOOM!!!
The spiked ball at the end of its tail slammed into the ground. The earth exploded, sending rubble flying as a powerful shockwave blasted outward.
BZZZT—!
An Ran was the first to act, unleashing her strongest Superpower.
A massive, visible shockwave swept out.
It was similar to Baili Qing’s Vibration Wave.
But it wasn’t a vibration Superpower; it was a concussive blast Superpower.
The Superpower erupted, compressing the air and releasing a devastating shockwave.
The blast rolled out, violently throwing the Terror Crocodile’s enormous body into the air.
It crashed through the hospital wall.
Baili Qing followed right behind, unleashing her Mental Superpower and vibration Superpower simultaneously.
The Mental Superpower assaulted the Terror Crocodile’s mind while a visible wave of vibrating light fell upon its body.
Dust flew and ripples of force spread out. The entire hospital building was hit by the impact, and half of its walls and structures were destroyed.
However, the Terror Crocodile’s Defense Power was absurdly high. Despite the continuous attacks, it remained unharmed.
Chen Yu wasn’t idle either. He unleashed his Freezing Skill, and a Frost Storm swept over the beast, freezing it solid on the spot.
CRACK—!
But in just an instant, the Terror Crocodile shattered the ice with a deafening roar.
Its massive maw gaped open, and a red wave of light began to gather.
SCHWIIING—!
It spat out the red wave of light, and the three of them quickly dodged.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
Earth-shaking explosions rang out as a column of dust shot into the sky, rolling across the heavens like a mushroom cloud.
The abandoned hospital was completely obliterated.
’Damn it, this beast’s hide is ridiculously thick!’ Chen Yu’s eye twitched as he watched the Terror Crocodile charge at them again.
Normally, the three of them working together would have already dealt with an ordinary Level 4 mutated beast.
But the Terror Crocodile’s Defense Power was truly monstrous. Even with all three of them, taking it down wasn’t going to be easy.
This Level 4 Terror Crocodile was almost as strong as a Level 5 mutated beast.
BZZZT!!!
An Ran pressed her palms together, condensing a dazzling ball of lightning.
BOOM!!
The attack exploded, scoring a perfect hit on the Terror Crocodile’s head in a flash of lightning.
The smell of something burning filled the air.
ROAR!!
An agonized howl tore through the air. As the Terror Crocodile’s roar shook the heavens, Baili Qing clapped her hands together, and another Vibration Wave swept out.
SHING—!
Chen Yu’s figure flickered, a silver long blade appearing in his hand.
Amplified by his Biological Force Field, his strength reached an astonishing level.
PFFT!
He leaped into the air and brought the blade down fiercely.
The long blade, Sophie’s weapon form, was even tougher than a Vibrating Gold Battle Blade. Backed by his immense strength, the blade plunged directly into the Terror Crocodile’s eye.
ROOOOAR—!
With the long blade piercing its eye, the intense pain made the Terror Crocodile roar in agony.
BZZZT!!
Seeing her chance, Baili Qing quickly unleashed her Mental Superpower, pulling the Terror Crocodile into an Illusion Realm.
PFFT!
Chen Yu yanked the blade free, flickered, and plunged it through the other eye.
"Just die!"
Veins bulged on his arm as he unleashed a torrent of massive power. Amplified by his Biological Force Field, he sliced sideways, splitting the Terror Crocodile’s brain open on the spot.
But even with its brain split open, the Terror Crocodile’s Life Force was so tenacious that it didn’t die immediately.
PFFFT—!
He delivered another finishing blow. This time, the Terror Crocodile was finally dead. Its enormous body collapsed to the ground, motionless, devoid of any Life Qi.
He retracted the blade, tucking it into the front of his pants. The three of them stared at the dead Terror Crocodile, taking a few ragged breaths.
A single Level 4 Terror Crocodile was harder to deal with than three or four regular Level 4 mutated beasts combined.
"Twelve thousand!"
Chen Yu subconsciously checked his Source of Life, and his eyelid twitched violently.
’Holy crap, a single Level 4 Terror Crocodile gave me twelve thousand Source of Life.’
That was almost double the Source of Life he’d get from a normal Level 4 mutated beast.
’It was tough to deal with, but it was worth it.’ A look of delight appeared on Chen Yu’s face.
"He’s smiling again..."
Watching the smile spread across Chen Yu’s face, Baili Qing and An Ran were left speechless.
They could almost always see Chen Yu smiling whenever he killed a powerful mutated beast.
’Does this guy have some kind of weird fetish?’
The two exchanged a glance but didn’t say anything.
"We’re over the hump now," An Ran said, stepping forward. "It won’t be long until we’re finished."
Chen Yu snapped out of his daze and looked at them. "Let’s keep going. The sooner we finish, the better."
The other two had no objections and nodded. Then, with a flicker, the three of them left the ruins.
A day passed quickly. As night fell once more, the three of them arrived at the old downtown government building to rest.
It had been a fruitful day of fighting.
They had already completed eight-tenths of their mission. Only two more Level 4 mutated beasts remained, and their task would be complete.
Chen Yu checked his Source of Life. His gains were even more astonishing than the day before.
His Source of Life had reached over ninety thousand. He was only a few thousand points away from one hundred thousand.
In a single day, he had gained nearly eighty thousand Source of Life.
In addition to taking down Level 4 mutated beasts, Chen Yu had also killed a large number of Level 3 and Level 2 beasts, accumulating an amazing amount.
This was mainly because they had run into a pack of Level 3 Hyena Beasts; otherwise, he wouldn’t have gained so much today.
’One more good push tomorrow, and I can upgrade a Skill.’
Chen Yu thought to himself as he looked at the Source of Life on his interface.
He was still short about six thousand Source of Life. One more Level 4 mutated beast should be enough.
’If it’s a special Level 4 beast like the Terror Crocodile, breaking one hundred thousand will be a piece of cake.’
Closing the interface, Chen Yu shut his eyes to rest.
The night passed without incident. When dawn once again lit up the land, the three of them set out again.
Just as they stepped out of the government building and were about to get moving, a loud noise suddenly echoed from nearby.
The three of them instantly looked toward the sound.
RUMBLE!!!
A sound like rolling thunder erupted. Not far away, the brick-paved ground suddenly exploded as several behemoths burst forth from beneath.
