Shaking the World

Chapter 4 The Mane Beast

Ruide Town is a small frontier town. The blazing sun shines on the town in the early morning, adding a bit of vitality to the gradually bustling market town.

The town is built along the river, and the mother river, Usval, runs from west to east between Red Town and the jungle of monsters.On the other side of the [-]-meter-wide river is the edge of the monster forest, where some low-level monsters live.

There is no bridge on the Wusval River, and monsters generally do not enter the town of Reed by flowing the river, but occasionally some monsters can be seen drinking water by the river.So the monsters and humans here are still living in peace.Normally, only some hunters would cross the river by boat, hunt down some low-level monsters and return to the town to exchange for some money.

The summer wind blows the Wusvar River, causing ripples on the surface of the river.

At this time, a black-haired boy was ferrying across the river on a homemade bamboo raft.The young man supported a bamboo pole with both hands, and drove forward with the bamboo raft up and down.The breeze caressed his face, and the boy's black hair, which had been brushed back, looked unusually elegant under the breeze, and even the slightly longer sideburns on his cheeks swayed with the wind.Under the sword-shaped eyebrows that entered the temples, a pair of bright black eyes narrowed slightly to adapt to the direct sunlight, and the pursed lips added a trace of fortitude to the soft face.

This boy is Lorraine.

On every rest day, Lorraine always goes into the jungle of monsters to hunt monsters. Firstly, he can exchange the hunted monsters for money to subsidize his family. The main purpose of Lorraine is to use the crisis to break through his limits!

Although monsters do not have the wisdom of humans and cannot cultivate fighting spirit, they have powerful hunting abilities and the instinct to escape.In the dense forest, with its agile action ability and strong body, the attacks of monsters will make people hard to guard against.

These monsters are much more dangerous than human fighters of the same level!

Often fighting with such monsters has trained Lorraine's vigorous skills.

Although Lorraine is not even a trainee martial artist so far, he can fight and kill some first-order monsters, and even escape from the sharp claws of second-tier monsters, which is something that even some trainee warriors cannot do.

Not long after, the bamboo raft reached the other side.

The bamboo raft landed on the shore, and Lorraine fixed the bamboo raft with iron wedges to prevent the bamboo raft from floating away with the river.

There is an arrow gourd on his back, a bow and crossbow hanging on his left waist, and a dagger pinned to his right waist. This is all the equipment Lorraine needs for his adventure in the jungle of monsters. Although simple, Lorraine is used to traveling lightly like this , Thick and heavy equipment is not suitable for fighting in the dense forest.

After checking the equipment, Lorraine walked towards the dense forest.

In the past, Lianna was with her, but now that Lianna moved back to live in Harlan, only Lorraine came to take risks alone.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Lorraine came to the edge of the Warcraft jungle.

The endless dense forest in front of you is like a creeping green monster, which makes people feel awe!

After stopping for a while, Lorraine rushed into the dense forest without hesitation.

Entering the dense forest is like entering another world.

Although it is hot summer, the forest is still as cool as spring.The sun shines through the dense leaves with difficulty, bringing such a glimmer of light to the jungle. The big trees surrounded by three or four people seem to be telling the long history of the jungle.

The Lorraine cat walked quietly through the gaps in the dense forest with its waist bent.

In the dangerous jungle, the most important thing to pay attention to is not to make any movement, so as not to be noticed by the sensitive monsters.This is the most basic quality that a professional hunter must possess.

After walking for about ten minutes, there was a rustling sound in front of Lorraine, and there was a lot of movement.

Lorraine quickly climbed up the trunk of a big tree, squinting and looking ahead.

While waiting quietly, a huge brown monster finally entered Lorraine's sight.It was a steel bristle beast, a first-order monster, with a body shape like a pig, but the hair all over its body was as hard as steel needles, and it could be ejected through muscle contraction to injure its prey.When frightened, it will also shoot out its bristles to facilitate escape.

Tier [-] monsters are actually just a general term. Monsters as small as a harmless horned rabbit to as big as a steel mane beast are all classified as Tier [-] monsters. Starting from Tier [-], they are generally higher than those of the same level. Human fighters are much stronger.As for the steel mane beast, it can be regarded as the most powerful one among the first-order monsters.

"I didn't expect to meet a steel mane beast so soon."

Lorraine licked his lower lip, slightly excited. He had no experience of hunting steel mane beasts before, and even if he saw them, he avoided them.But this time he didn't want to escape, the more dangerous the battle, the more he can break through the limits of himself, maybe this time he can break through to the realm of a trainee martial artist!

Lorraine lay silently on the tree trunk, waiting for the approach of the steel mane beast.

In this regard, the steel-maned beast, which was buried in looking for food, didn't notice it, and still grunted and chirped with its proboscis to the left and right of the dead leaves on the ground, hoping to find some food to satisfy its hunger.

Suddenly, the steel mane beast's ears trembled, and it heard the sound of "collapse" coming from directly above, followed by the screaming sound of a sharp instrument piercing the air!

A crossbow arrow pierced the air and shot down with a whistling sound, and directly nailed into the steel mane beast's neck with a "dumb"!

Although the steel mane beast turned its head to avoid its vitals at the last moment, it still screamed in pain.However, before it howled a few times, a figure shot straight down from the tree trunk, with the dagger in his hand gleaming coldly, and cut directly at the steel mane beast's neck!

The steel mane beast stepped on its left hoof, turned its head to avoid the falling dagger, and then threw it out forcefully, stabbing Lorraine viciously with its [-] cm long fangs.

Lorraine saw the opportunity quickly, and shot out to the side as soon as it landed, narrowly avoiding the life-threatening fangs, and raised his hand to shoot another arrow, hitting the side rib of the steel mane beast.

The steel bristle animal skin was thick and thick, and the crossbow arrows could not seriously damage it, but instead aroused its madness, and its small eyes turned red.

"Come on, fool!"

Lorraine stepped back slowly, making a provocative voice.

The steel mane beast lowered its head and roared, pawing the ground with its front hooves. It only had that hateful human in its eyes!

Suddenly, it howled and ran directly towards Lorraine!

Although the steel mane beast is huge, its speed is not slow at all. It runs with amazing momentum, and the dead leaves are deeply trampled into the soil wherever its four hooves pass!

Facing the menacing steel mane beast, Lorraine didn't panic, and still leaned back leisurely, waiting for the time to come.

Accompanied by the faster and faster hoofbeats, the huge body of the steel mane beast is close at hand, and Lorraine can even clearly see the needle-like hairs on the steel mane beast.

At the moment when Lorraine was about to be pierced by the ferocious fangs of the steel mane beast, he suddenly exerted force and leaped out to one side!

Bah!

Lorraine dodged the collision, but the steel mane beast couldn't catch up, and slammed into a big tree behind Lorraine that was surrounded by four people. Amidst the loud noise, the whole big tree suddenly shook violently, and the leaves rustled Rushing down, it can be seen how terrifying the force of the impact of the steel mane beast is!

Seeing that it didn't hit the target, the steel mane beast was ready to regroup and attack again.

But at this moment, it discovered a very embarrassing thing.

Most of its pair of incomparably sharp fangs sank into the trunk of the tree. It stomped the ground vigorously with all four hooves, and it was difficult to pull it out for a while!

A look of joy flashed across Lorraine's face. He saw the timing and jumped back to the steel mane beast, wanting to give the monster a final blow, but at this moment, a dangerous breath suddenly enveloped his heart!

Before he had time to think about it, Lorraine immediately fell to the ground.

call out!

tuk tuk...

There was a series of dull explosions in the woods, and the surrounding big trees were nailed with steel bristles, densely packed, penetrating three points!

"so close!"

Lorraine wiped off his cold sweat. If he hadn't dodged in time just now, he might have become a sieve now.

But there was no time to be afraid, he jumped up again, and the dagger directly stabbed the steel mane beast's vitals.

The steel-maned beast with its fangs stuck was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, watching Lorraine stab into his vitals with a knife.

puff!

A gust of blood shot out, splashing Lorraine all over.

"Ow!"

With a miserable howl, the steel-maned beast struggled even more desperately, but the massive blood loss made the steel-maned beast lose its strength little by little.Not long after, the steel mane beast twitched all over, and gradually lost its sound.

Loosing the dagger stuck into the steel mane beast's neck, Lorraine leaned against the tree trunk and gasped.As soon as the tense nerves relaxed, Lorraine felt a wave of tiredness sweeping through his body.

Although the whole process was safe and sound, even if he was knocked down, he would either die or be disabled.

Before the physical strength fully recovered, Lorraine stood up, pulled out the dagger and cut a hole from the weak spot behind the steel mane beast's ear, reached in and touched it for a while, then a look of joy appeared on his face, he pulled out his hand, spread it out In the palm of his hand, a stone the size of a bloody fingernail lay quietly in the palm of his hand.

This is the magic core of the steel mane beast!

The magic core is the most valuable thing on a monster, but not every monster can condense a magic core.The magic core is extremely valuable, and it can be inlaid on weapons by blacksmiths like gems, and can also be used for research in alchemy.

After obtaining a magic core, Lorraine was in a great mood.Although he still failed to condense his fighting spirit, Lorraine was not discouraged. Isn't this how he has come here for the past few years?Lorraine firmly believes that what should come will always come!

After wiping the blood on his body, he took out the powder to cover up the smell of blood on his body, and Lorraine continued to walk deep into the dense forest.
