20 First Battle with a Fiend-level Monster!

Outside the base city, an off-road vehicle printed with the West Camp's logo sped down the long abandoned highway. The road was bumpy, and dust flew everywhere.

This was the Evolvers' campsite car, which would make a turn every half an hour.

Unlike students, Evolvers' hunting targets were powerful monsters that had evolved.

Such monsters were almost impossible to encounter within the 10 km radius of the base city. They were at least 20 km away.

There were two men and a woman in the car, and the atmosphere was lively.

"Ah, so you're both from the internal patrol department? I thought the internal patrol department only needed to catch mutated humans in the base city," Wang Ye asked curiously, "So you need to hunt outside the base city too, huh?"

"That's right. After all, firefighters don't just put out fires. Besides, we can't earn money if we don't hunt," The female patroller blinked and looked at Wang Ye's face which had become even more handsome after his gene evolution, "Do you plan to come to the base defense division after you pass the rookie trial?"

"If the female patrollers of the internal patrol department are all so beautiful, what's there to consider?" Wang Ye smiled and took out his phone, "Do give me your contact information, Senior Sister. I'll ask about your experience when the time comes."

"Sure," The female patroller was natural and graceful.

The male patroller at the side coughed lightly and said seriously, "Don't underestimate the work of an internal patroller. The potential of a person is endless. I once met a mutated human on duty and erupted with strength comparable to a beginner-level Evolver at a critical moment. It was very shocking."

Wang Ye nodded, "I agree. I've seen girls do squats. Usually, they can only do squats a few times, but in a critical moment, they can squat non-stop."

"Pfft," The female inspector covered her mouth and giggled.

...

The vehicle was parked at Encampment No. 3, 20 kilometers away from the base city. It was built next to the abandoned Baolong Square and was guarded by base defense personnel.

After the reconstruction, Baolong Square was equipped with electricity and internet, where Evolvers could eat, rest, and stay for a while.

After saying goodbye to the enthusiastic senior sister who wanted to train with him, Wang Ye opened the map on his watch and headed north.

Most of the Evolvers would head west where there was a large park built by the lake. There were a large number of fiend-level monsters there and even nightmare-level monsters in the lake.

He couldn't afford to offend those monsters for the time being.

To the south was a large abandoned village that was temporarily under control.

"It's good to get used to it in advance."

Wang Ye saw many rookies like him in Encampment No. 3. Everyone was preparing for the rookie trial in four days.

Of course, they were all students from the elite classes.

Most of the students from the ordinary classes were still training themselves to connect to Moon Web in the Evolution Building, cultivating advanced evolution techniques.

"It's here!"

Wang Ye, who was running, caught sight of a mutated monster resting on the rubble ahead.

Its greenish-black skin was rough and thick, and its majestic hooves were full of explosive power. It let out earth-shaking roars.

The Red Sun Saber was unsheathed.

"Chi!"

Blood splattered as Wang Ye killed the mutated monster with one slash.

His physical fitness score of 230 was more than double when he had gone on his previous hunt.

"Good saber!" Wang Ye's eyes lit up.

This Red Sun Saber was forged based on the crystal saber in Moon Wev's cultivation technique area which he had used to comprehend the Red Sun Saber Technique.

His saber was exactly the same as the crystal saber. Although it was a newbie's equipment, it was quite easy to use, though a little heavy.

Once he broke through to become a level 1 genetic warrior, it wouldn't be much of a problem.

0.1 potential points ↑

It was a good start.

...

Five hours later.

[Mutated beast killed.]

[Potential points: 3.7→3.8.]

Lights flashed in front of his eyes and Wang Ye looked at the sky.

As the sun set, the sky gradually darkened. The night in the wilderness was very dangerous.

"Not bad, I earned 2.2 potential points. Normally, I can probably get around 5 potential points."

Compared to the previous 3 potential points per day, his efficiency had almost doubled, and he was very safe.

"It's rare for me to be unscathed," Wang Ye smiled and ended the work.

He had just recovered, so he should take it easy, lest Dr. Shu shed tears again at night.

The senior sister's introduction was right. The north of Encampment No. 3 was indeed more suitable for rookies to hunt.

As long as one was not too far away from the encampment, they would not encounter fiend-level monsters.

Time to go back to camp!

Wang Ye was about to leave when the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently.

From afar, it was as if an earthquake had occurred. The roars of a furious beast could be heard, mixed with anger and pain.

Wang Ye abruptly turned around and saw a cloud of dust flying in the distance. A black monster the size of a car was running toward him. It was huffing out of its nostrils and one of its two horns was broken. Its speed was definitely over 200 km/h.

Good Lord! He had encountered a fiend-level monster!

It was easy to determine whether a monster was mutated or evolved.

Mutated monsters were brought about by genetic mutations. 99% of them looked strange, vicious, and terrifying. Their pupils were red and their minds were unclear as if they had rabies.

Meanwhile, evolved monsters basically maintained their original appearance. However, as their genes evolved, they would naturally absorb cosmic energy. As a result, their bodies would enlarge, becoming stronger and more powerful!

For example, this fiend-level bison in front of him!

Fight? Escape?

Two thoughts flashed through Wang Ye's mind and he made a decision in an instant.

Fight! Because he couldn't escape.

There were no buildings or narrow passageways around, so how could he outrun a sports car?

Wang Ye focused and threw away all distracting thoughts.

The Red Sun Saber in his hand also became hot.

"Thump, thump, thump!"

As the fiend-level bison got closer, he could even hear its heavy breathing and smell its stench.

Up close, the difference in size was even greater. The three-meter-tall fiend-level bison's black and green skin was like natural armor, and its defense far exceeded that of humans of the same level.

Thump, thump. thump!

Wang Ye quickly changed his position.

Although the fiend-level bison was huge, it was extremely agile. It didn't slow down even after adjusting its bearings slightly. It was as if it wanted to send Wang Ye up into the sky.

This was definitely a male bison.

Limit break skill, Comprehensive Saber Technique!

Wang Ye couldn't find an opportunity to attack. He used the Red Sun Saber to form a circle, moving as he deflected the fiend-level bison's shocking impact.

His blood churned as the saber collided with the bison's broken horn, and he retreated rapidly. His arm went numb.

What terrifying power!

It was injured!

As Wang Ye moved, he noticed that something was wrong with the fiend-level bison.

There was a heart-wrenching wound on the right side of its body as if it had been pierced by a spear.

As blood oozed out, the wound and pain affected its movements.

Attack its weakness!

Wang Ye displayed his agility advantage.

Although the impact from the fiend-level bison made him feel as if his body was about to fall apart, the defensive effect of the limit break skill was indeed great. His injuries were not serious.

From round to square!

The perfection-level Basic Saber Techniques changed moves, and the Red Sun Blade slashed across the fiend-level bison's bloody wound, making it even more violent.

Wang Ye took advantage of the situation and pulled his blade, opening the wound. Then, he retreated with a backhand blade and defended with the Comprehensive Saber Technique again.

The fiend-level bison was furious. Its body lost its balance and it tried to run away.

It wanted to run after ramming into him and making him bleed? How could there be such a good thing?

Wang Ye rushed forward and used the Red Sun Saber Technique.

Starting stance, Rising Sun!

The speed of this move was extremely fast as it chased after the fiend-level bison's ass.

The essence in Wang Ye's body condensed, and it was as if there was a sun in his body that was emitting heat, burning the Red Sun Saber.

Chi!

With one slash, both of his hands went numb, but at the same time, the Red Sun Saber sent the Fiend-level bison to the ground!

The heart-wrenching wound on the bison was already a bloody mess, deep enough to see the bones.

Chi, chi, chi!

Wang Ye didn't give the fiend-level bison a chance to stand up again. He slashed with his Red Sun Saber again and again, like a butcher cutting a cow.

After a dozen slashes, the fiend-level bison with strong vitality was finally killed.

[Killed level 1 bison.]

[Potential points: 3.8→5.3.]
