Stuck in a Chinese novel

Chapter 210: A Predator



However, Wei Jun wasn\'t willing to let go of something so precious so he caught the makeshift lance-like spear with his hand before it pierced the dog monster.

Effortlessly, the makeshift spear went through the monster\'s open mouth, penetrating past the Miasma barrier and going straight through the mouth of the monster, killing it on the spot.

However, his power wasn\'t enough to stop Shao Chen\'s punch who managed to strike him and throw him away from his location while also dislocating Wei Jun\'s shoulder.

"Arrgh!!" Wei Jun grunted in pain as a good amount of his HP fell. It wasn\'t just the pain from the shoulder. The Qi from Shao Chen was also inflicting damage upon Wei Jun although for a very short amount of time because soon the Death Qi devoured it.

But the damage had been done and Shao Chen followed closely with another attack.

Wei Jun pulled the makeshift spear and stabbed Shao Chen with it. Seeing the fate of the dog, who was in its last throes, Shao Chen wasn\'t willing to risk whether he would be hurt by that blackish spear or not.

[Ding]

Shao Chen jumped back to dodge which was also when Wei Jun consumed a health pill and attacked Shao Chen with Qi discharge from one hand and the Qi spear with the other hand.

With attacks coming from both sides, Shao Chen knew he had to dodge one while he had to block one.

He chose to block the fist strike because it seemed less harmful than the spear that was able to kill a monster in one strike.

That was a mistake.

Wei Jun\'s death Qi covered fist struck Shao Chen at close range.

"Ahhh!!!!" Shao Chen yelled as the power of death broke through his barrier of Qi and entered his body, wreaking havoc throughout his arm but it lost its power and evaporated after it consumed a good chunk of Shao Chen\'s Qi and his arm.

A golden chance that Wei Jun would never ever get again.

An injured and distracted opponent.

Wei Jun would be an idiot to miss on a chance like that and even if he had to lose an arm to take that opportunity, he wouldn\'t have minded.

[Host watch out!]

Wei Jun hurriedly dodged as a deranged dog, like the one Wei Jun had just killed before, almost bit his arm off.

"I was kidding!" Wei Jun yelled as he thrust the spear in his hands at the dog but unfortunately, before the spear could penetrate the dog, the spear construct disappeared.

Still, Wei Jun managed to avoid harm, however, he missed the golden opportunity to kill Shao Chen who bolted in the opposite direction.

Before Wei Jun could follow after him though, he felt the dog from earlier attacking him again but the only difference was that there were two of them this time.

[Hose, the Barghest race hunts in groups]

[Like wolves]

[If there are two, then more would be on their way.]

[Kill them soon and get away from the place]

\'Why?\' Wei Jun asked.

[Because their leader, a Direhound might find you]

[And you\'re nowhere in a situation to deal with it let alone hundreds of Barghests along with it]

Wei Jun didn\'t think for another second and used Qi discharge worth five points on each hand and killed the two dogs effortlessly with just his hands.

The miasma on the dogs\' skin couldn\'t offer any resistance at all.

[Ding]

[Ding]

Wei Jun had received a similar sound when he killed the Barghest but for some reason, there was no message showing up. Wei Jun ignored it and turned to the discretion where Shao Chen was running in.

As Wei Jun began to chase, the Dark Qi [Qi empowerment] ended. Wei Jun didn\'t activate it again because he only had enough worth one [Qi discharged] now, he couldn\'t afford to waste any of it.

It was his only trump card against the strange monsters.

[Yang Qi has been used]

[Skill \'Qi empowerment\' has been activated]

[All physical stats +35]

Wei Jun\'s speed picked up once again but it wasn\'t as fast as before. Still, he was fast enough to reach an injured guy who was slowly losing all his mojo as time passed, second by second.

Wei Jun caught up with him and slammed into his back, skidding both of them on the ground before Wei Jun straddled Shao Chen and began to rain down and punches on him.

Shao Chen protected him with his arms as cover but one of his arms was already in a lot of pain and whenever Wei Jun\'s punches struck, he would feel a tremendous amount of pain course through his entire arm.

"Ugh!!" Shao Chen loudly grunted as a great amount of Qi emitted from him, throwing Wei Jun away while also delivering a small amount of damage.

Wei Jun bit on the pain and stood up in a second. He once again launched himself at Shao Chen while pulling the Adamantium gun out. Wei Jun knew it wouldn\'t work given Shao Chen\'s current cultivation rank, but it would at least strain a little bit of his Qi which was all that Wei Jun wanted.

"Are you kidding?!" Shao Chen, like every target of that gun before, also thought it was a joke until Wei Jun took the first shot.

A clear crack, a very small but clear one, appeared on Shao Chen\'s Qi barrier. It wasn\'t much to threaten him but Wei Jun shot again, precisely in the same spot.

Shot after shot after shot.

In just ten seconds, he emptied the magazine at the same spot of the barrier before Shao Chen could do anything.

As Shao Chen stood stunned by the scene in front of him, Wei Jun threw a black ball that exploded midair, creating enough cover for Wei Jun to vanish.

Unfortunately, Shao Chen was strong enough to feel the fluctuations of Qi turning to his left only to find nothing when something struck him from his left, hitting his left arm, the injured one.

"Aarrrgghh!!!" It was clear to an idiot even that Wei Jun was particularly targeting that arm.

Shao Chen tried to push Wei Jun away but Wei Jun threw another black ball which exploded in front of Shao Chen\'s face. It didn\'t do any damage to him but it just impaired his vision for long enough that Wei Jun knelt, hugged Shao Chen\'s legs, and pulled back, throwing him on the ground and mounted him once again, throwing punches but this time, with a little bit of surprise added.

Something similar to brass knuckles appeared on Wei Jun\'s knuckles and he just began to hit Shao Chen, anywhere and everywhere.

Wherever he could hit him, he didn\'t hesitate and kept hitting him, his main target was Shao Chen\'s face.

Wei Jun kept on hitting Shao Chen even when blood smeared his face; Shao Chen\'s blood.

He only stopped when he heard the notifications from the system about a successful system completion.

[Main quest II complete]

[Shao Chen]

[Rewards will be granted shortly]

Wei Jun sighed and stood up. He didn\'t immediately feel the power up so there was something about it.

But before he could sigh in relief, Wei Jun froze in his spot.

The eye of a predator.

Step.

Heavy steps.

Steps of a predator.

Who slowly makes his presence known and lets you know that it can blatantly show up in front of you because it doesn\'t fear you, at all.

Wei Jun slowly turned his face to a creature that was at least his size in height but in length, it was almost two times an adult lion. Its width was wider than well-fed cow but muscular, rather than fat.

A tail that gave off a feeling of being more metallic than flesh, and its skin, which also gave off the feeling of it being metallic was a mixture of dark blood red and black.

It bore a striking resemblance to the dogs before but this one thing wasn\'t a dog.

Dogs don\'t hunt.

Wolves hunt and that was what this was.

A wolf; the greatest predator to ever exist.

Aside from its heavy steps, it made no other sound as if still and silent about everything. No snarls, no growling, no saliva dripping, no nothing.

However, just like the dogs before, it did have no eyes.

But it didn\'t need them at all. Wei Jun was perfectly sure that it could take Wei Jun down with eyes closed even if it had any.

When it didn\'t, there was no need to put that analogy to test.

[No eyed Direhound]

[Strength: 328]

[Agility: 441]

[Stamina: 438]

[Defense: 47]

[Miasma: 501]

Wei Jun\'s eyes couldn\'t grow any wider when he saw the stats of the predator in front of him.

And if that wasn\'t the end of bad news, the subsequent notifications were…

[Reward for the Main quest would be granted in five minutes]

\'Fu*k.\'
