Free Web NovelChapter 394: Chapter 291: As Long as I’m Fast Enough, the Magical Little Tree Can’t Eat
The frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast stared fixedly at the enemy before it, its huge, bell-like eyes as red as blood. The Spiritual Energy Waves emanating from its body grew steadily stronger, only stopping when they reached the peak of the Second Order Middle Stage.
"ROAR..."
Having finished gathering its power, the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast first let out a great roar at Lin Li. Then, stomping its hooves, its massive body, weighing several tons, suddenly charged forward.
THUD, THUD, THUD...
Its powerful hooves made a dull thud every time they struck the ground.
Faced with the charge of this colossal Mutant Beast, which was as large as a heavy armored vehicle, Lin Li wasn’t foolish enough to confront it head-on. Instead, he kicked a nearby rock into the air.
WHOOSH.
The large rock kicked by Lin Li flew toward the face of the rapidly charging, frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast.
The frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast didn’t dodge or evade the incoming rock, letting it smash right into its head...
BANG.
The large rock struck the head of the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast, creating a loud bang.
But even after that heavy blow, not a single wound was left on its head.
A physical attack like that was clearly unable to affect the terrifying charge of a Mutant Beast at the Second Order Middle Stage.
Although the large rock Lin Li had casually kicked didn’t cause even the slightest harm to the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast, the attack made the already berserk creature even more enraged—like pouring oil on a roaring fire.
If the rage in the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s heart could be made manifest, it would have undoubtedly turned Lin Li to ash.
"ROAR..."
With a bellow, its speed suddenly increased. The frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast was just about to pierce the hateful human with its curved, sharp horns and send him flying, when it saw its target suddenly dodge to the side. His evasion speed was so great that he easily avoided its charge.
THUD, THUD, THUD...
Its charge having failed, the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast stopped and turned to look at Lin Li. It raised its powerful right hoof and stomped heavily on the ground, leaving a shallow pit in the earth.
Clearly, the failed charge had infuriated the Mutant Beast.
’This Mutant Beast’s strength is far greater than mine, but its speed is much worse. As long as I’m careful, it can’t touch me.’
Lin Li mentally analyzed their respective strengths and weaknesses based on the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s previous charge.
"ROAR..."
Unwilling to accept defeat, the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast charged at Lin Li again. Although it did its utmost to increase its speed, Lin Li still dodged the second charge with ease.
Moreover, in the instant he dodged, Lin Li swung his Spiritual Longsword, cutting a bloody gash across the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s powerful body.
"ROAR..."
Wounded in its abdomen, the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast shrieked, its blood-red eyes looking as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
In that moment, the Mutant Beast completely lost its sanity. It then began to charge Lin Li frantically, as if it had gone insane.
’It’s just like what people wrote in the forum posts! These strange Mutant Beasts lose their minds the moment they’re injured and then just frantically attack their target...’
Lin Li constantly shifted his position, dodging the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s mad charges again and again.
Witnessing this, he couldn’t help but recall what his fellow Hunters had written in posts on the Exotic Beast Hunter app’s discussion board.
SLASH, SLASH, SLASH...
The Spiritual Longsword, glowing with a faint golden Spiritual Light, cut one gash after another into the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s body.
The Mutant Beast’s beautiful hide, once as smooth as yellow satin, was now soaked with blood seeping from its wounds, leaving it messy, sticky, and utterly unsightly.
After this series of exchanges, a normal Mutant Beast would have realized it was no match for this human and chosen to flee.
But this strange type of Mutant Beast would do no such thing. Once injured, these creatures completely lose their sanity. They have no concept of fear and will not rest until their enemy is dead.
As for whether they actually had the strength to kill their enemy, that wasn’t something their insane minds would even consider.
"ROAR..."
The insane, frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast let out another furious roar and charged at Lin Li at top speed. It was incredibly tenacious, fighting on despite its repeated failures.
「A moment later.」
SQUELCH.
The Spiritual Longsword, glowing with a faint golden Spiritual Light, pierced the head of the scar-covered, frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast.
After breaking through to Second Order High Rank, Lin Li’s strength had increased considerably. As a result, this one strike pierced straight through the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s head.
The blade, stained with red and white matter, emerged from the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast’s right ear.
The savage aura emanating from the frenzied yellow ox Mutant Beast dissipated as its crimson eyes lost their light.
As Lin Li pulled his Spiritual Longsword from the Mutant Beast’s head, the terrifying creature, as massive as an armored vehicle, tilted to one side and crashed to the ground.
THUD.
Its massive, several-ton body hit the ground, sending the bits of grass that had been churned up by the battle flying into the air.
