Is He Really The Protagonist?

Just as Xiao Posheng comforted himself, he finally got the first weapon in the next box, which was also the one he needed: a whip.

The whip that people often talk about is generally a hard whip, similar in shape to a mace.

The opposite of a hard whip is a soft whip, such as a small leather whip often used with candles. Ahem... In weapons, a soft whip generally refers to a dart head, a handle, and a number of iron joints. Or a type of weapon made of several sticks connected by rings.

What he found was a soft whip, certainly not a small leather whip.

The iron sections are shorter and the overall shape is similar to an iron rope.

The usage of the soft whip is very different from the weapons he has used, and he has never practiced it. He only has theoretical knowledge and it is difficult to use this difficult weapon skillfully in actual combat.

But he doesn't need to be very skilled. He only needs to record a few seconds of footage and an audio of whipping in the air.

After that, Xiao Bosheng's luck improved visibly, and he successively found a pair of wrist guards, two Han swords, a Tang sword, and a dagger.

Of course, a large part of the reason was because he opened all the boxes without weapons, because after finding these weapons, there were not many treasure boxes left in this area.

Of course he didn't need so many weapons. He returned to the camp and put down some unused items in his backpack. He took out the tactical belt he found in the treasure chest and tied it on before placing the backpack in the camp.

I stuck the Tang Dao's scabbard on the buckle on my back and tried it. Drawing and retracting the knife went very smoothly. I inserted the dagger on my left hand, hung the iron whip on my right, and put a roll of bandages into my belt. , wear wrist guards.

Looking at the two eight-sided Han swords leaning on the stone, Xiao Bosheng thought for a moment, took out one and held it in his hand. The star pupils were activated, and the spiritual energy gathered at the fingertips, and then slowly covered the entire sword body.

"Ding⁓"

At a certain moment, with a crisp sound of iron breaking, the Han sword in his hand shattered into several pieces. Xiao Bosheng picked up these simple flying knives and put them into the storage bag on his belt, and conveniently put the two small bottles on the side. and a bottle of water in the storage bag on the other side.

Preparations complete, the hunt begins.

Go down the high slope and go straight to the place where the mark represents the spirit beast.

The first spirit beast was an unknown lizard variant, about twenty centimeters tall. Its body was hidden among the trees, so you couldn't tell how big it was.

This lizard saw Xiao Bosheng and rushed over very proactively, just like a couple from a different place seeing their significant other after getting off the plane.

That is, of course, if you ignore its drooling, fanged mouth and forked tongue that pokes out of its mouth and twitches in the air.

Shaking his head, Xiao Bosheng bent down slightly, with an evil smile on his lips. With the activation of Star Gaze, although the lizard still maintained its forward posture due to inertia, its movements had stiffened.

Draw the sword, turn sideways, and chop!

With a clean and neat movement, the enthusiastic lizard's body and head were separated. The remaining body continued to move forward for a certain distance, fell to the ground and twisted a few times, then lost its voice.

Easily.

There were not many spiritual beasts in this oasis, or in other words, the distribution of spiritual beasts in the hunting ground was not dense. Xiao Bosheng moved towards the east while clearing away the spiritual beasts along the way.

He planned to go to the anti-sand forest first, then go north around the high slope from the anti-sand forest, step into the Gobi Desert in the evening when the weather is cooler, then set off to the west, circle counter-clockwise around the high slope, and finally return to the camp. .

After dealing with several small spirit beasts, Xiao Bosheng came to his first destination. There was a spirit beast here that met his needs.

A spiritual beast awakened from a jackal, it stands about one meter tall, has strong limbs, and has two canine teeth more than ten centimeters long, piercing out from its lower jaw. Its front claws are very long, and it looks like a beast in a cartoon. The claws of the mecha were glowing with metallic luster.

The spirit pattern is on its tail, and the talent seems to be related to the tail. When the spirit pattern is activated, the entire tail emits fire.

The reason why I introduced it in such detail is because it is a second-level spiritual beast.

There will be several spiritual beasts one level higher in the first and second level hunting grounds. The reason why there are no third level spiritual beasts is because the naturally advanced fourth level spiritual beasts are too rare, coupled with their high IQ.

Therefore, spirit beasts of level 4 and above are basically friendly towards humans, and those who are not friendly are bewitched.

Except for some ancient alien species or ancient beasts, these things are too dangerous.

Closer to home, as spiritual beasts that are one level higher than spiritual masters, all second-level spiritual beasts in the first-level hunting grounds are restricted in their range of activities by the spiritual formation.

The range is not small, enough for spirit beasts to roam around inside, and there are also marks outside the formation. If you feel you have the ability, you can try it.

And Xiao Bosheng was also the first among several participants to try to fight beyond the level.

The jackal was hiding in a group of yellow-brown shrubs. With its yellow-brown outer skin, Xiao Bosheng did not notice it immediately.

However, the second-level spirit beast does not have a high IQ. When the jackal was preparing to attack, it activated the spirit pattern, and the flames on its tail ignited the bush.

The tiny sound of wood burning was accurately captured by Xiao Bosheng in his star-pupil state, and he turned to look in the direction of the sound. He saw this tawny figure dragging a burning stick towards him, with its two paws in front, and a sharp breath rushing towards him.

Xiao Bosheng decisively thrust his knife forward. The knife and claws intersected, making a crisp metal collision sound.

The front claw attack was blocked, and the jackal stared at Xiao Bosheng, opened its mouth, and tried to bite his throat.

They were very close at this time, and Xiao Bosheng could clearly see the shreds of meat stuck between the jackal's teeth, and the stench emanating from its bloody mouth assaulted his nostrils, and Xiao Bosheng was almost suffocated. Fainting.

He exerted force on his waist, stepped forward with his right foot into a lunge, and at the same time slashed the blade horizontally along his two paws. The jackal, which had nowhere to rely on in the air, was knocked back by this move and fell to the ground, with dark red blood on its front paws. outflow.

Next to the burning bush, Xiao Bosheng looked at the jackal staring at him, his expression serious, but not nervous.

The last time he fought against a second-level spirit beast was during the National Day, when he encountered the frog spirit beast in the Jiangliu Wetland. He was beaten to a terrible state.

This time, the jackal spirit beast seemed to be much stronger than the frog spirit beast, both in terms of aggression and attack power.

But at this time, Xiao Bosheng was far more ferocious than he was back then. When facing the frog spirit beast, he had no weapons and the terrain was not conducive, so he dealt with it in a bit of a panic.

But now, he has a Tang Dao with excellent material and craftsmanship in his hand. He has a dagger on his waist, an iron whip, and a pocket of 'flying knives'. Star Gaze has also gained a good reputation. improvement.

The terrain may not be beneficial to me, but it will never be as harmful as that time.

In this case, there is no need to be afraid.

He reached out and took out a 'flying knife' from the pocket of his belt and held it in his left hand. The jackal opposite also made a move.

The jackal raised its tail, flicked it in the air, and three fireballs appeared out of thin air and flew towards him, with the jackal following closely behind.

Xiao Bosheng took a few steps back and waited for a few seconds. While the spiritual energy lingered on his left hand, he dodged the first two fireballs. Then he twisted his waist, blocked his chest with his left fist, and used the power of turning to swing out with his right hand. With one strike, the blade passed through the last fireball and struck the jackal behind it.

He shook his left hand. Even though he was surrounded by spiritual energy, he could still feel the scorching temperature after blocking the fireball, as if he had been scalded by 60-degree hot water.

And the knife he swung was also blocked by the jackal's front paws. His knife was not intended to cause actual damage, it was just to attract the jackal's attention. The real attack was hidden in the defense just now.

When Tang Dao was slashing out and his left hand was protecting his chest, the 'flying knife' held in his left hand was already flying out with spiritual energy.

Looking at Jackal, Xiao Bosheng raised an evil smile on his lips and activated Star Gaze.

The effect of Star Gaze is not obvious when facing a second-level spirit beast. This has been confirmed before when facing the frog spirit beast.

Even if the effect of Xiao Bosheng's release now was stronger than that then, the Jackal was only dazed for a short moment, and then came back to his senses. It wanted to continue releasing the fireball just now.

Although his IQ is not high, he can still see that the fireball attack just now was effective. This time he released more fireballs and took down this miserable two-legged beast in one go.

The same operation was performed, but it failed. The jackal turned around to see why, but found that at some point, his tail fell to the ground. The flames burning on it had long since dissipated, revealing the tawny hair. .

The spiritual pattern is an extension of the soul. Of course, the jackal's spiritual pattern will not disappear because its tail is cut off. It can still maintain its current second-level strength and can still release the spiritual pattern talent, but the difficulty of operation is compared to its IQ. Slightly higher.

Given time, its tail will still grow, and it can still inspire spiritual patterns and get a cool flame tail.

But unfortunately, it has no future. When it turned around to see why, Xiao Bosheng moved.

His left hand reached into the pocket containing the 'flying knives' at his waist and grabbed one. The Tang Dao in his right hand was covered with spiritual energy.

Quickly rush forward, step forward with your left foot, draw the sword, follow closely with your right leg, lean down, and sweep the Tang sword across. Then he turned around, facing away from the jackal, and the aura on the knife dissipated.

He casually held a wristband, changed the way of holding the knife from forehand to backhand, raised his arm, and accurately inserted the tip of the Tang Dao into the scabbard.

Xiao Bosheng released his right hand holding the sword. Under the influence of gravity, the Tang sword slid downwards along the scabbard. With a gentle click, the Tang sword was completely sheathed.

Behind him, several fragments of the Han Sword floating in the air were briefly suspended for a few seconds and then shot into the Jackal's body. Accompanied by the muffled sound of the blade cutting flesh, was reddish-brown blood splashing in the air.

Damn it, he got it.
