This Ruoruo was the woman who had gotten the meteorite in the first place.
A Level Nine Warrior, she had obtained the Dark Energy Stone and was just at the crucial point of breaking through to the War General realm. Although she was originally not strong enough, she accidentally absorbed the energy within the Dark Energy Stone, successfully breaking through and becoming a rare female War General.
Lin Zhen held his spear and stood for a while, quickly making a decision in his mind.
No matter what, he had to get this meteorite. Lin Zhen’s goal in this life was very high; he not only wanted to cultivate quickly, but also wanted to be the strongest at every step.
He knew many people’s opportunities, and although he couldn’t possibly take everything from everyone, he couldn’t pass up an opportunity that was right before his eyes.
As for Ruoruo, Lin Zhen didn’t care about her at all.
With a plan in mind and without stopping, he carried the Black Dragon Spear into the small town. Howls and roars of beasts came from inside.
As soon as he entered the edge of the town, Lin Zhen saw a Mutated Beast.
It lay there, the size of a grinding stone, with dark green skin covered in pus-filled bumps. Its long tongue wrapped around a human arm as it swallowed, and upon seeing Lin Zhen, it immediately swallowed the arm, facing Lin Zhen and showing a fierce light in its small eyes.
It had been a long, long time since Lin Zhen last saw a Mutated Beast on Earth. Seeing this toad now, he could still recall the characteristics of these Mutated Beasts.
“Ribbit!”
The Mutated Toad let out a cry and lunged at Lin Zhen.
With its limbs spread out and its huge mouth wide open, it hadn’t even reached Lin Zhen yet when its two-meter-long tongue rolled towards him.
Although the toad was F Level, it was considered tricky among F Level Mutated Beasts. With the protection of its long tongue, it was difficult for a Martial Artist to strike its belly in one hit.
Especially with its ugly and ferocious appearance and the toxins all over its body, many young apprentices had fallen at the hands of this type of Mutated
Beast.
But for Lin Zhen, such a level of Mutated Beast was too simple.
Because he had Spiritual Power.
With a shift of his mental power, a throwing knife flew out from his waist, flashing past like lightning, and the toad’s red tongue was already cut off!
“Ribbit!”
The toad cried out in pain and before it could even land, Lin Zhen had already reached the spot where it would land, and the tip of the Black Dragon Spear in his hand slashed across its soft belly.
“Psh!”
A large gash from head to tail, its internal organs spilled out, and Lin Zhen had already dodged out of the way, not getting dirty at all.
“F Level Mutated Beast, its body hasn’t crystallized yet, not of much value.”
Lin Zhen picked up the toad’s tongue; since the toad didn’t have ears, its tongue was the loot.
After dealing with the toad, Lin Zhen continued forward.
After walking about a hundred meters, there was a sound of “cackling” in front of him.
Turning around a small corner, a group of Mutated Beasts appeared in front of him.
The one at the front was almost as tall as a person, with thick legs and a fiery red crown on its head. Its sharp beak was like steel. As soon as it saw Lin Zhen, it stopped.
About ten shorter Mutated Beasts followed behind it. They were not as robust as the first one but were still quite large.
“Mutated roosters and hens, group-dwelling Mutated Beasts with powerful hard beaks and claws. They can make short-distance flights and have fast sprinting speeds. Their weaknesses lie in their necks and heads, but they have relatively strong vitality.”
These chickens used to be food on the table, but after God Transformation Day, all beasts mutated, and they were no exception. On that day, those who raised chickens at home suffered a great deal.
After seeing Lin Zhen, the rooster let out a crow, its voice high and clear. The surrounding hens seemed to hear a command and rushed from all directions.
Lin Zhen’s Black Dragon Spear in hand swept and pierced. Snap, snap, snap, the cold stars appeared in the air, and in an instant, five or six hens were knocked to the ground, each of them with a bloody hole on their heads.
“The second layer of Nine Layers Spear River, Storm, is like heavy rain on banana leaves in action, emphasizing speed. Although I haven’t mastered Storm, dealing with these F Level Mutated Beasts is not a problem.”
His body shot forward, and the Black Dragon Spear made several consecutive strikes, knocking down the remaining hens.
The big rooster flapped its wings and rushed towards Lin Zhen, swooping at Lin Zhen with its sharp beak in a bird-like manner.
Lin Zhen dodged using his excellent neural response. Before the rooster could land, Lin Zhen’s flying knife arrived, piercing through the rooster’s head.
As the rooster fell to the ground, it struggled desperately. Lin Zhen walked over and shot it twice more, putting an end to it.
After taking the blood from the rooster’s heart to make medicine, Lin Zhen collected all of the chicken’s combs.
“These F Level Mutated Beasts don’t pose much of a threat to me right now. If I happen to come across them and kill them on the way, it’s fine. I don’t need to go out of my way to find them. Each F Level beast only earns one point, so killing higher-level Mutated Beasts is faster.”
After killing the group of chickens and not walking far, Lin Zhen heard the sound of fighting in front of him.
Lin Zhen quickly walked over and saw a Level Nine Warrior fighting a group of Mutant pigs.
The Mutant pigs were no longer their chubby and docile appearance; each one was almost as tall as a person, their hair standing up on end. Long tusks protruded from their mouths, and their eyes were full of ferocity. They had become true wild beasts.
Mutant pigs were E Level monsters with thick skin and meat. They had no obvious weaknesses and could only be killed with powerful methods. However, the weapon of this warrior was only a short sword, which was obviously an agile route, so the damage to the Mutant pigs was limited, and he was struggling.
Lin Zhen didn’t rush to help right away. There were eight Mutant pigs, which were not easy to deal with. He wasn’t someone who blindly helped others upon seeing trouble.
The warrior’s eyes brightened when he saw Lin Zhen, but soon dimmed: “Shit! I thought a savior had arrived, but it turns out it’s just a waste! How do you even have the courage to enter the town? Aren’t you running away after seeing these Mutant pigs?
Lin Zhen climbed onto a nearby broken wall, where the Mutant pigs couldn’t reach. He sat down and laughed: “Why should I bother running? After these Mutant pigs eat you up, that short sword of yours will be mine. It looks pretty nice and should sell for a few hundred thousand.”
The Level Nine Warrior didn’t expect Lin Zhen to be so shameless. He wanted to provoke Lin Zhen into helping, but Lin Zhen was completely unmoved and even waiting to watch him die.
With one full-strength sword strike, he finally killed one pig but was scratched by a larger one. Being hit by such a giant beast was like being hit by a car, and the warrior’s movement became difficult.
He finally couldn’t help but say, “Lin Zhen, what do you want to help? As long as you lead away three pigs, I will be able to kill the rest one by one. Name your price.”
“I don’t care! These are group-dwelling E Level Mutated Beasts and are more terrifying than ordinary D Levels. You’re so stupid to provoke them. You’d deserve to die.”
“Shit! Did I intentionally provoke these group-dwelling E Levels? It’s because I wanted to check the meteorite crater in that house. I didn’t expect to find so many of them there.” The warrior casually pointed.
“Meteorite crater?” Lin Zhen was taken aback. Following the direction the warrior was pointing, he saw a hole in the roof of a house, but a broken wall was covering it. If it wasn’t for Lin Zhen’s position right now, he wouldn’t have seen the meteorite crater.
Lin Zhen’s heart suddenly surged with excitement, not expecting to find a meteorite crater so quickly.
What kind of meteorite is in this crater? Void Stone? Dark Energy Stone? Or
something else?
