"Ahem! Hmph h mph!!!"
When the long-spined wild boar saw Shi Yu and Shi Shi, it had already planned which part of them to eat first.
Saliva dripped from the corner of its mouth, its eyes gleaming, and its strong, powerful limbs began to stomp the ground restlessly.
Charge!
This was not a skill but a simple, reckless rush.
The long-spined wild boar first targeted the unknown bear-like creature's cub, which it deemed more threatening, and charged forward with its tusks raised.
"Be careful not to let its tusks touch your body, or you'll be petrified. Also, its main attack method is a reckless charge."
Shi Yu used telepathy to give Shi Shi a brief instruction, then immediately retreated to the side of a tree, ready to watch the show.
This wild boar was nearly two meters long, a large creature compared to Shi Shi, who was almost one meter tall. As it charged, Shi Shi experienced a completely different feeling from the previous battle with the Ice Armor Beast.
The long-spined wild boar's charge was no slower than the Ice Armor Beast's, and in terms of strength and physique, it was even more threatening.
For the Shi Shi of a week ago, the only options might have been to harden the entire body to resist or to hastily dodge. But now...
Shi Shi, standing on two legs, had its black and white fur fluttering in the wind. With extreme focus, a glint of brightness flashed in its eyes.
Intermediate skill, Super Vision!
With proficient Super Vision, Shi Shi's visual abilities were greatly enhanced, and its dynamic vision was surprisingly excellent.
In its eyes, it seemed as if the entire world had slowed down. The wild boar's charge, which seemed fierce, suddenly slowed down many times in Shi Shi's vision.
With a clear view of the enemy, Shi Shi had more time to react.
Bang!!
Since the long-spined wild boar's movement was mainly a reckless charge, it was difficult to change direction during the process. Using this, it was relatively easy to dodge the attack and counter.
As the long-spined wild boar charged, Shi Shi simply sidestepped, successfully dodging!
Huh? Where's the prey?
In an instant, the long-spined wild boar felt its prey disappear from its sight and crashed into empty space, leaving it utterly confused.
The next moment, the small Ferrocerus, which had been practicing in its mind after observing the long-spined wild boar's attack pattern, reacted incredibly quickly. Its bear paws were instantly hardened and struck the long-spined wild boar as it passed by!
Crack!!
The hardened bear paws made contact with the long spines on the wild boar's body, causing the spines to break immediately. Then, the massive impact from the side sent the long-spined wild boar reeling, feeling a sense of danger.
"Ugh"
With a painful howl, the wild boar, driven by the inertia of its charge and the impact from Shi Shi, rolled diagonally.
"Ao, ao, ao"
After being knocked over, the long-spined wild boar rolled on the ground, dazed and in pain, unable to stand up. Its expression was one of fear, as if it had been attacked by its food.
"Shi Shi, finish it off."
As an excellent Beast Master, Shi Yu always taught his pet beast some excellent qualities.
At his command, Shi Shi immediately switched to a four-legged stance, taking a step with its left front and right rear legs, charging at the wild boar with a slight inward angle, even more fiercely than the wild boar's charge.
Hardening, head, Iron Head!
Borrowing the momentum of the charge, Shi Shi hardened its head and made intimate contact with the long-spined wild boar's head, "Bang!" The long-spined wild boar's eyes turned white, and it fainted completely.
"Qingmian Worm, tie it up."
Shi Yu opened his backpack and a green little worm reluctantly came out, using its silk to bind the large wild boar.
Soon, a long-spined wild boar worth 350 points and at a growth level of seven was easily hunted by Shi Yu and Shi Shi.
"Indeed, the combat power is not on the same level."
Shi Yu looked at the long-spined wild boar bound with white silk and gained a new understanding of Shi Shi's combat power.
It seemed that the only creatures that could pose a threat to Shi Shi in this state might be a few growth level ten Small Wave SS.
A long-spined wild boar with such a single attack pattern was directly countered by Super Vision and Hardening!
However, if it were Chen Kai's Ice Armor Beast, Shi Yu felt that even if he could win in a one-on-one fight, it would take a lot of effort.
"Ao wooo!!"
At this moment, Shi Shi was in the joy of defeating the long-spined wild boar. Shi Yu bent down, picked up one end of the silk, and threw it to Shi Shi.
"The training you love the most is here. Drag the trophy and keep moving, carrying the weight."
Shi Shi: ∑(O_O;)!!
Shi Shi thought that defeating the long-spined wild boar was the end, never expecting the boar's body to be used as a training prop.
No wonder it was his Beast Master, thinking so thoroughly.
Shi Shi excitedly grabbed the silk, "Rumble" dragging the wild boar, its expression full of anticipation, curious about what lay ahead.
"We will continue deeper."
After confirming the long-spined wild boar's combat power, Shi Yu confidently led Shi Shi into the Wild Boar Forest, planning to cross it.
At this moment, in the monitoring room of the nearest safe zone, a staff member browsing the surveillance suddenly noticed something amiss and quickly zoomed in on a particular camera feed.
"Guys, someone has already made a move here."
"There's a novice Beast Master who has already taken down a long-spined wild boar and entered the Wild Boar Forest alone."
"Alone?" The surrounding security personnel immediately leaned in to look.
In the aerial view from the mechanical bird, a Ferrocerus cub was dragging a long-spined wild boar with a white rope, following Shi Yu.
One human and one beast, boldly entering the Wild Boar Forest marked as dangerous on the map.
"That Ferrocerus... from its size, it seems to still be a cub? Its growth level shouldn't exceed seven, how did it easily defeat the long-spined wild boar?"
By "easily," it was because Shi Shi was now leisurely dragging the wild boar.
If it had been a hard-fought victory, the first thing Shi Yu and Shi Shi should have done was to take the relatively safe route on the map to the safe zone, convert the wild boar into points, and rest, rather than dragging a wild boar deeper into its territory.
"I didn't see it." The security personnel who first noticed Shi Yu and Shi Shi spoke.
With so many camera feeds, how could he have noticed them from the start?
"Keep a close eye on him. Entering the Wild Boar Forest alone is somewhat dangerous, but as long as they are smart enough to climb trees, the long-spined wild boars won't be able to harm them." A security personnel said.
Shi Yu and Shi Shi were among the first to achieve significant results, immediately drawing the special attention of the security personnel at the nearest safe zone.
Soon, under their watch, Shi Yu delved deeper into the Wild Boar Forest and stealthily found a group of long-spined wild boars gathered together.
Hiding behind a distant tree, Shi Yu and Shi Shi observed the four long-spined wild boars foraging in the forest, each with different expressions.
Shi Yu was thinking whether Shi Shi could take on four of them... while the small Ferrocerus was wondering why Shi Yu hadn't let it charge yet.
"Shi Shi, want to give it a try? You have a proficient Hardening skill, which allows you to fight while fully hardened. They shouldn't pose a threat to you."
With proficient Hardening and Super Vision, Shi Yu felt there shouldn't be any problem, after all, these wild boars had a single attack pattern and a low growth level.
"Ao!!!" Shi Shi's wild nature was aroused.
1 vs 4!
Sounds exciting!
"Alright, I'll cheer for you from behind the tree with Qingmian Worm. It's all up to you..." Shi Yu encouraged.
Shi Shi deflated, well then.
Next, Shi Shi put down the wild boar it was dragging, left Shi Yu, and walked alone toward the group of long-spined wild boars.
"Damn, how dare they."
This action immediately made the security personnel in the safe zone monitoring room shout.
His shout drew the attention of the other security personnel in the room.
"What's going on?"
"The novice Beast Master with the small Ferrocerus, his Ferrocerus charged alone at four long-spined wild boars!"
"What? Is he crazy?"
The security personnel "zing" looked over, how could there be such a reckless examinee.
Even a growth level ten pet beast would find it difficult to face four long-spined wild boars alone.
Next, under their surveillance, Shi Shi entered the perception range of the four long-spined wild boars.
"Ughemhemhem!!!"
"Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!"
An unknown creature approached, and one that resembled a bear, a natural enemy. The four long-spined wild boars immediately became wary.
However, upon realizing that Shi Shi was a small cub less than a meter tall, their minds quickly changed, just like the previous long-spined wild boar.
What's going on? Where did this guy come from? Is he here to add to their meal?
The four long-spined wild boars were still in the observation phase when something unexpected happened.
The small Ferrocerus suddenly stretched out its two hands, pulled the corners of its mouth, and made a ghost face to taunt them.
"Rorororo"
Shi Shi's tactical taunt.
"Damn." The security personnel were even more shocked.
Is he courting death?
"Ughemhemhem!!!"
"Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!"
The four long-spined wild boars simultaneously charged, their sharp tusks aimed at Shi Shi.
Since the four wild boars charged from different directions, Shi Shi's Super Vision, which wasn't yet 360°, couldn't be careless, so it immediately hardened its entire body!
Instantly, a metallic sheen enveloped its entire body!
The black fur areas had a deep, metallic texture, while the white fur areas hardened like shining silver. After completing its armor, Shi Shi roared and, using the same method as before, side-smashed the first wild boar that approached.
The next second, the second wild boar collided with Shi Shi's body, but it felt like hitting a large lump of steel. It didn't know what the enemy felt, but it knew its tusks were almost shattered.
"Ao" The second wild boar let out a pained howl, while Shi Shi, which was accidentally hit, was definitely not injured. The opponent couldn't even break through its defenses, only adding a bit of dirt to the hardened areas.
However, the massive impact still made Shi Shi stagger, pushing it back a bit.
Due to being hit, Shi Shi's wild nature was aroused, and its expression became particularly serious. It directly pounced on the wild boar beside it, knocking it over with a single impact.
Then, it looked for the remaining enemies with a fierce and cute gaze.
As for the remaining two long-spined wild boars, since they were initially farther away, they couldn't reach Shi Shi in time, allowing the first two wild boars to occupy the battle area.
They clearly saw how their two companions were knocked over by this small lump of steel.
"Ao"
At this moment, they had no intention of continuing the fight. In the wild, creatures are very practical. Unless it's a dead end, their first reaction to a strong enemy is to run.
However, Shi Shi didn't plan to give them a chance to escape. It locked onto a turning long-spined wild boar and fearlessly charged, scaring the wild boar into yelping and jumping as it ran.
"Damn."
This was already the third "damn" in the safe zone monitoring room.
The four security personnel surrounding the monitor looked at the screen with incredulous eyes, rubbing their eyes hard.
Wait, did they... did they see it wrong???
A Ferrocerus cub, facing four long-spined wild boars, knocked over two in two encounters, then scared the other two into fleeing and chased after them?
A true wild boar killer!
"Proficient Hardening? Who is this examinee?" A security personnel suddenly said with a serious expression.
