The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

Chapter 79 Riding on the Waves (Happy New Year!)

Lead-gray clouds filled the sky.

The cold wind wrapped the snow flakes and fell, mixed with water mist and condensed into a dark curtain.

The airboat was rippling in the waters of Jinghu Lake. Yu Ke was sitting on the edge with a golden sword, holding a long bow in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the "boiling" water in front.

Facts have proved that the ferocious beasts that can be spotted by hunting groups are of extraordinary value, and their bones and flesh are extremely effective even if they are used to "make nests".

The gathering of fish attracts predators, and the predators themselves become new bait.

As long as the giant swamp beast discovered by the Yalang Hunting Group is still in this water area, it will definitely be attracted by this movement.

Yu Ke half-closed his eyes and concentrated on spreading out his senses.

The spiritual awakening quality brought about by the [Investigator] profession allowed Yu Ke to truly come into contact with some indescribable spiritual powers. His perception of himself was no longer completely laissez-faire, but could be controlled to a certain extent.

This feeling is mysterious and mysterious, but one thing is certain. Compared with before, Yu Ke can concentrate on detecting the movements in a certain area in more detail.

at some point.

The water flow in the southeast direction was obviously turbulent, and the area affected was far wider than any predator Yu Ke had observed so far.

Coming?

Yu Ke decisively turned sideways, holding a bow in his left hand and reaching into the water with his right hand.

Almost at the same time, a black shadow rose into the sky where a large group of fish gathered. Water splashed everywhere and at the same time, a wave of water nearly two meters high spread to the surrounding area.

Yu Ke, who was well prepared, immediately used the characteristics of volt waves to control the water flow. All waves approaching the airboat were forcibly suppressed two meters away, and calm was restored at an extremely fast speed.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Ke's eyes locked on the figure through the curtain of falling water and minced meat.

What catches the eye is still the iconic long neck, rough blue-grey skin, and vaguely weird stripes with heterochromatic phosphorescence, which should be mutations caused by the spread of infection. Looking further up is the distant star. It is similar to a python, but actually has a fundamentally different head.

The top of the head was bare and hairless, but it had wrinkled and rough hard skin. Although the head was small, the mouth was huge, and the cone-shaped teeth in the mouth were biting and tearing back and forth a water beast the size of a wild boar.

Yu Ke's gaze did not stay on the head for too long, and soon turned to the huge body of the giant beast still hidden deep in the water.

According to the findings of the Yalang Hunting Group, the back of this giant water beast should have undergone large-scale deformation. Yu Ke must confirm whether it was caused by infection or an abnormal mutation caused by Pandora's parasitism.

At this time, the swamp monster has begun to dive again.

While controlling the wave, Yu Ke noticed the large patches of colorful flowers floating on the water. He discovered that the shape of this giant beast was somewhat like a plesiosaur from ancient times, but he could not see whether there were fins under the water.

Observing the body of the giant beast as long as possible, Yu Ke watched the giant beast swallow the water beast whole. Realizing that it was about to return, he immediately frowned and without saying anything, he aimed at the eye socket of its head and shot an arrow.

All the bait, bones, and meat that the hunting group can provide are here. It was difficult to lure this giant beast out of the swamp. Yu Ke will not miss this opportunity. Not only must he find out its condition, but he must also unite with the hunting group behind to bring it out. Get rid of it.

From a distance of more than ten meters, the arrow arrived in the blink of an eye and hit the giant beast's left eye directly, causing cyan liquid to splash.

The pain caused it to fly into a rage. It turned its head to look at Yu Ke who suddenly attacked it, and let out an angry roar. The minced meat of the water beast was mixed with the smelly and sticky saliva of the giant beast and spat at Yu Ke.

It was at this time that information about it poured into Yu Ke's mind.

Aberrant beast: A swamp monster that mutated due to Pandora's infection. It is extremely aggressive and is good at launching surprise attacks from deep water. It has accumulated a large number of infection sources in its body.

Yu Ke, who had successfully aroused the hatred of the giant beast, did not hesitate at all after confirming the opponent's identity. He directly used the characteristics of volt waves to control the turning of the airship, turned the propeller power to the maximum, and began to move closer to the location of the members of the hunting group.

The giant beast with an injured left eye was not willing to let Yu Ke go. With a roar, it lowered its head and charged at Yu Ke.

By checking for leaks and filling in the missing traits, Yu Ke was able to determine that this giant beast did not have extraordinary abilities. This made him somewhat relieved. If the other party could control the water flow like the Qishui Monkey King, it might not be that easy for him to go back. .

In fact, extraordinary abilities are never so easy to obtain.

Whether it is the Jinghorn Deer King or the Qishui Monkey King, they are undoubtedly the kings of the tribe, and the Shadow Moon Leopard is the overlord on the outskirts of the Mirror Lake Forest.

Of course, the lack of extraordinary abilities does not mean that this monster is weak. Its huge body is an extremely terrifying weapon.

After adjusting the direction, Yu Ke allowed the airboat to carry him towards the direction of the forest area. At the same time, he bent his bow and arrows, constantly shooting arrows at the aberrant beast, suppressing its movements while allowing it to pursue him. , and will not give up halfway.

Opening the communication channel, I was about to inform the members of the hunting group about the situation when I heard Hu Yingjie shouting anxiously,

"Yu Ke, we saw that giant beast. How are you doing now? Do you need us to come and help?"

This is not a polite word.

I just saw Yu Ke talking to the hunting patrol leader in person. In Hu Yingjie's eyes, Yu Ke is a very important figure in the forest defense bureau. If he is compromised here, he doesn't know how much trouble it will cause in the future.

"You keep your formation, don't worry about me, wait until the distance is close before fighting."

Yu Ke looked at the giant beast that was constantly looking for an angle to knock over the airship. With a calm tone, he raised his hand and shot another arrow.

It didn't seek to cause much damage, but just aimed at the neck of the beast to make it suffer more.

After several failed attempts to get close, the beast seemed to give up the pursuit, and turned its head and dived into the water, ignoring the arrows that penetrated its flesh.

Yu Ke knew its intention very well, it just wanted to dive from the water and attack again.

For this kind of water beast, as long as the target was dragged into the water, victory was almost certain.

Frankly speaking, Yu Ke really had no way to deal with this sudden attack from deep water. He could only speed up the airboat and control the waves to push it forward and quickly approach the shore.

Soon the outline of the dense forest in front gradually became clear, and the distance was only about two or three hundred meters.

The beast obviously would not let Yu Ke get close to the dense forest area and wait for an opportunity to intercept.

Yu Ke, who was highly focused, immediately discovered the huge black shadow that suddenly floated up from the bottom of the airboat, and his prior preparations also came in handy at this time.

Because Hu Yingjie had helped to store the backpack, coat and other sundries in advance, Yu Ke jumped up as soon as he felt that the giant beast was about to attack, took the initiative to leave the airboat with his weapons, and jumped into the water.

The benefits of high perception were fully reflected at this moment.

Almost at the same time when Yu Ke fell into the water, the airboat was turned upside down by the giant beast that suddenly floated up.

Fortunately, it was made of special materials. If it was replaced with an ordinary wooden boat or rubber boat, this impact alone would be enough to completely scrap it.

This is far from the end. The giant beast that resurfaced bit the airboat in anger, piercing the airboat with its fangs. The pupils filled with chaotic colors shook constantly. When it found that the human who attacked it was no longer on it, it threw the airboat directly away.

Just as he was thinking about where the guy had escaped, he felt a sharp pain in his neck again. He lowered his eyes to search and found that the man was standing on the water and continued to shoot arrows at it. Many arrows shot out and pierced through the skin and flesh.

Such a provocation made the already angry beast go crazy. The narrow stripes on its neck burst out with different colors of phosphorescence from bottom to top. The fins hidden in the water slapped the water surface, causing a wave to overturn towards Yu Ke.

Immediately, without waiting for the wave to subside, it sprayed a torrent of chaotic colors directly towards Yu Ke's position.

Although this monster itself did not have extraordinary abilities, the injection of chaotic colors gave it special abilities on another level, which was far more powerful than ordinary extraordinary beasts.

Anything touched by this torrent of chaotic colors, whether it was flying snow or water, showed a strange phosphorescence, like a water flow polluted by chemical reagents, full of disgusting greasy feeling.

Yu Ke had been prepared for this.

From the moment he was fully immersed in the water, he suddenly realized that the nature of the deep blue wave was far more mysterious than he had imagined.

Because he got this extraordinary ability from the Monkey King of Qishui, Yu Ke always subconsciously imitated the former, but in fact, the body size and fighting style of the two are different, and the application of the Fubo trait should also vary from person to person.

The water can't hold up the Monkey King of Qishui, which weighs dozens of tons, but it doesn't mean that even Yu Ke will sink if he enters the water.

He stomped his right foot on the lake surface, and the waves in front of him suddenly subsided, and then a new wave rose under his feet, carrying Yu Ke away from the giant beast.

Dodging the erosion of the chaotic color torrent, Yu Ke walked on the waves in a skating posture. Every time the giant beast approached, there would be waves under his feet to accelerate and take him out of danger.

Yu Ke, who was in the vast water, was not at a loss in an unfamiliar environment at all, and even felt particularly comfortable!

The arrows in his hand were fired continuously, causing injuries to the giant beast in front of him again and again. Yu Ke relied on his small size and fast speed, and the fact that he was on the water marsh, which could be regarded as his home ground, to deal with the giant beast very easily, and continued to lead it to the dense forest area.

The giant beast, which had been provoked one after another, had already lost its mind and rushed forward regardless of anything, vowing to crush Yu Ke to death.

This scene was seen by the members of the hunting group at the edge of the dense forest, and they were all stunned.

They knew that Yu Ke, who could shoot a series of hunting log videos, was very strong, but they didn't know how strong he was.

The scene in front of them was the best annotation of the word "strong"!

He resisted the repeated attacks of the water marsh beast alone, and he actually had the strength to guide it to the trap at the edge of the dense forest.

"As expected of a strong man who dares to chase a face-faced owl in a snowstorm, this means of walking on the waves." Hu Yingjie held a telescope in his hand, his eyes locked on Yu Ke who was speeding on the water, and he was amazed. At the same time, he was also thinking in his heart what kind of extraordinary ability Yu Ke had awakened. "The monster will arrive soon, prepare for battle!" Yu Ke's voice came from the communication channel, accompanied by the sound of waves. Looking back at the distance between the dense forest area and himself, Yu Ke loosened his clenched fist left hand, and the water column that was originally condensed beside him also dissipated, and turned to speed up to the dense forest area to meet up with other members of the hunting group. This is not a single-person hunt. Yu Ke knows that more than one person is paying attention to the situation here. It is obviously not a good idea to show all his abilities in front of outsiders. Yu Ke has never thought of solving the water monster alone. Even if so many people are united to assist in the battle, it is likely that the system will gain less experience. You know, Pandora is very likely to be lurking nearby. Uncontrolled consumption of physical strength now would only make the battle that might break out later even more difficult.

Not to mention that Yu Ke had just fought a great battle with the Monkey King of Qishui not long ago, and his physical strength had not yet fully recovered.

Riding the wave back to the dense forest area, Yu Ke jumped onto the roots of the giant tree, turned to look at Hu Yingjie and others, not far behind him was the giant water beast chasing after him, and reminded loudly,

"Pay attention to the beam of light it spits out from its mouth, and definitely don't get involved!"

"Understood, brothers, it's up to us."

The leader of the Yalang Hunting Group nodded solemnly, then raised his hand and made a gesture to say hello,

"The non-extraordinary ones retreat to provide long-range support. Pay attention to maneuver. We will use guerrilla tactics to kill it!"

A-level hunting groups have become famous by hunting tiger-level ferocious beasts. If nothing else, they will never back down if they dare to come here.

The battle is about to break out.

Yu Ke, who had led the swamp beast here, retreated to a safe area, took a breath, and turned his gaze to the hunting leaders beside him, observing their movements and wanting to understand their extraordinary abilities.

So far, the only extraordinary person Yu Ke has come into contact with is Anseli, and he only had a glimpse of his abilities and didn't know much about them.

To be able to become the leaders of the A-level hunting group, the three people in front of them represent the high-end combat power of the extraordinary people in the Danhang area.

This is undoubtedly a great opportunity to learn about extraordinary combat power.
