Chapter 105: Section 106: One Man Beats Back an Army


    Even though the Blue Dog Fox Wolf possessed intelligence not inferior to humans, it had never expected that the Magic Beast it had subdued would actually turn on it and bite back!


    At the brink of life and death, it unleashed unprecedented power, forcibly retracting and retreating regardless of everything, even if it meant breaking off its Zhenjin Claw that was still hooked to its tail.


    Its left eyeball was still impaled on the Zhenjin scorpion tail, and the Blue Dog Fox Wolf’s violent movements caused an intense stream of blood to spurt from the socket of its left eye.


    “Woof woof woof woof!” Under the heavy injury, the Blue Dog Fox Wolf fell into a rage, letting out a roar.


    The surrounding Magic Beasts all awoke and started surrounding Zhenjin for an attack.


    Zhenjin had originally thought he could pierce the Blue Dog Fox Wolf’s brain through its left eye with a single thrust and kill it in one shot. But he hadn’t anticipated that, under the stimulus of death, the Blue Dog Fox Wolf would explode with such lightning-fast reflexes and speed.


    ...


    As a result, Zhenjin only destroyed one of the Blue Dog Fox Wolf’s eyes.


    The Monkey-tailed Brown Bear fiercely pounced over, forcing Zhenjin to give up the chase after the Blue Dog Fox Wolf and dodge to the side.


    The Strong Life White Rhinoceros also launched a charge, but Zhenjin swung his scorpion tail and stabbed a Bronze Flying Squirrel, barely scraping by the Strong Life White Rhinoceros.


    Zhenjin had already been entangled with these two Silver Level Magic Beasts for half a day, and now his scorpion shell was covered with numerous scars.


    The Silver Level scorpion shell was very hard but could not be overly relied upon in front of the Strong Life White Rhinoceros and Monkey-tailed Brown Bear. Too many attacks could not be taken head-on, so evasion was the wise choice.


    The erupting Demon Beast Army was like a flood that overwhelmed Zhenjin.


    Zhenjin barely made his way out through a bloody path and then ran blindly.


    Magic Beasts were everywhere in his field of vision, chasing after the Blue Dog Fox Wolf now would be purely suicidal!


    “Woof woof woof!” The Blue Dog Fox Wolf barked furiously, the flames of vengeance burning fiercely.


    The Demon Beast Army relentlessly pursued Zhenjin.


    Zhenjin was greatly troubled.


    He wasn’t good at escaping in the form of the gun scorpion, especially as the frequent appearance of forests and rocks forced him to keep changing direction. Running in a straight line was fine, but the high-speed turns often led to Zhenjin himself crashing.

    If he crashed and ended up belly-up, it would be hard for Zhenjin to flip back over instantly. In front of the Monkey-tailed Brown Bear and Strong Life White Rhinoceros, he would become a live target.


    Zhenjin could only try his best, but inevitably his speed plummeted during the turns.


    A Black Iron Flying Squirrel took advantage of this opportunity and pounced on Zhenjin’s back.


    It released a powerful electric current that instantly paralyzed Zhenjin.


    The Strong Life White Rhinoceros arrived soon after, violently thrusting its horn into Zhenjin’s underside, flipping him high into the air, clearing several treetops before finally descending.


    The Black Iron Flying Squirrel’s electric shock caused significant interference to Zhenjin.


    The bat monkeys were also a threat.


    “Woof woof woof!” The Blue Dog Fox Wolf called out again.


    The next moment, the Black Iron bat monkeys in the sky all erupted with sound waves.


    As the gun scorpion Zhenjin fell, breaking countless branches, the sound waves enveloped him, making his head spin even more.


    But the other Magic Beasts were in even worse shape.


    The flying squirrels completely collapsed on the spot, screaming in agony, some being killed by the sound waves on the spot.


    Rhinoceroses and bears were also affected. The Monkey-tailed Brown Bear stood still, using its gorilla-like palms to plug its own ears. The Strong Life White Rhinoceros could withstand the sound waves, but its charging speed had halved.


    The Blue Dog Fox Wolf had a narrow escape and was extremely agitated, so focused on killing the incomprehensible abomination Zhenjin that it lost its usual calm.


    The entire Demon Beast Army also fell into chaos.


    Zhenjin finally hit the ground, landing on his back, unable to flip over for a moment.


    The young knight quickly stimulated his Heart Core, transforming himself into an Acid Liquid green lizard.


    This was a carefully considered decision.


    The form of the Silver Spear Scorpion was the strongest and had outstanding defense, but in the forest with trees and rocks everywhere, including protruding tree roots, the gun scorpion couldn’t run fast.


    The bat monkey’s form had the fastest movement, but at only Bronze Level, getting surrounded would lead to getting torn apart by the bat monkeys, with no need for the Monkey-tailed Brown Bear or Strong Life White Rhinoceros to act.


    The lizard form was not the strongest, but it wasn’t weak either; stronger than the Bronze bat monkey, at Black Iron Level. Zhenjin found this form easier to handle than the gun scorpion, and while running, he was less affected by the forest environment. Moreover, compared to the gun scorpion form, the green lizard’s form consumed less energy from the Demon Crystals.


    And so, Zhenjin transformed into the Acid Liquid green lizard.


    The sound waves still made him quite uncomfortable.


    The green lizard also had good hearing.


    However, the bat monkeys that were chasing him, as well as the Strong Life White Rhinoceros, had lost their target.


    After Zhenjin’s complete transformation, they didn’t see the gun scorpion, and even if they were intelligent enough to have witnessed Zhenjin’s transformation process, they probably couldn’t understand it.


    “To deal with Magic Beasts, I can transform into other forms, that way their target disappears.”


    Zhenjin discovered another marvelous use for the Heart Core.


    This was the benefit of applying practice. He could find wondrous things that were hard to notice during deduction and training.


    Of course, if the Blue Dog Fox Wolf had seen this, it would definitely have directed its spearhead toward the Acid Liquid green lizard.


    “The Blue Dog Fox Wolf isn’t dead yet! Now, the entire Demon Beast Army has pounced over, and the area around the Blue Dog Fox Wolf is very empty. I can bypass them and attack the Blue Dog Fox Wolf again!”


    Zhenjin was undaunted by failure, his fighting spirit only growing stronger with each setback.


    He immediately started to act.


    “Woof woof woof!” But in the next moment, the Blue Dog Fox Wolf’s call sounded again.


    This time, after receiving the orders, the Black Iron bat monkeys stopped emitting sound waves, and the bat monkey group dispersed in all directions, beginning to slaughter all life.


    Little squirrels, birds in the forest, and all sorts of bugs, rodents, and snakes on the ground met a terrible fate.


    The Strong Life White Rhinoceros and the Monkey-tailed Brown Bear arrived afterward, joining the massacre as well.


    “The way this Blue Dog Fox Wolf is acting, it’s like it’s gone mad!” Zhenjin sighed.


    It had to be said that the Blue Dog Fox Wolf’s frenzied command really did cause Zhenjin trouble.


    The Acid Liquid Green Lizard was the biggest target here.


    Many bat monkeys swooped down on Zhenjin.


    Zhenjin’s neck quickly swelled up with a round bulge, which slid up, sliding into Zhenjin’s lizard mouth.


    His mouth gaped open, ejecting bursts of Corrosive Acid Liquid.


    The acid accurately hit the charging bat monkeys, which immediately let out piercing shrieks as they fell to the ground, their bat wings first corroding to mere skeletons. Their fur also suffered, producing a waft of charred smoke that was foul-smelling after the corrosion. Soon after, their flesh also corroded, turning into pus. Their ghastly white bones were exposed, visible to the naked eye.


    In just a few breaths, these bat monkeys were all dead.


    The bat monkeys became terrified, clearly hesitating, no longer charging at Zhenjin to their deaths.


    “The Blue Dog Fox Wolf’s control over the bat monkeys is weakening rapidly!”


    Zhenjin keenly noticed this.


    For him, this was quite good.


    After all, he had only just transformed, and the acid was only half stored. Using it all on the bat monkeys wouldn’t kill them all.


    The Monkey-tailed Brown Bear and the Strong Life White Rhinoceros caught up.


    At this moment, Zhenjin’s speed was about the same as theirs.


    He ran in circles while looking back to spray acid.


    Both the bear and the rhinoceros were huge and inevitably got hit many times.


    But after all, they were both Silver Level Demon Beasts, so the corrosive effect of the acid was not ideal. The injury on the thigh of the Monkey-tailed Brown Bear was rapidly worsening, making it stumble, its speed declining further and further. While the rhinoceros’s thick skin or keratinous layer made the acid practically ineffective.


    Zhenjin shook off the Monkey-tailed Brown Bear, but he couldn’t shake off the Strong Life White Rhinoceros.


    As he ran, Zhenjin suddenly had a bright idea.


    He sprayed acid forward, hitting the trunks of trees in front of him.


    After the trees were corroded, they rapidly dissolved into big holes, and tall trees started to slowly topple.


    Zhenjin quickly ran through this dangerous area, but when the rhinoceros arrived, the ground shook intensely, and the trees came crashing down.


    At least eight trees fell, some landing directly on the rhinoceros’s back, others blocking its path.


    The rhinoceros wouldn’t jump while running. It could only detour or simply charge through these trees. Whatever choice it made, it wouldn’t be able to catch up with Zhenjin anytime soon.


    Zhenjin rushed towards the position of the Blue Dog Fox Wolf he remembered.


    “Woof woof woof.” The barking of the Blue Dog Fox Wolf echoed through the forest.


    The bat monkeys, bears, rhinoceroses, and finally the recovering Flying Squirrels began to converge towards the Blue Dog Fox Wolf.


    “This?!” Zhenjin’s plan to ambush was thwarted by this change.


    “Has it calmed down? It seems to have detected my intentions!” Zhenjin regretted deeply as he watched the Demon Beast Army surround the Blue Dog Fox Wolf and escape.


    “To chase or not to chase?” Zhenjin hesitated.


    At this moment, the evening sun gradually set at the horizon, the twilight like fire, shining on Zhenjin’s face, and illuminating this messy battlefield.


    It was precisely this messy battlefield that made Zhenjin resolve once more.


    “Chase!”


    To leave this Blue Dog Fox Wolf alive was too great a threat. He didn’t want his camp to one day become as devastated and deserted as this battlefield.


    Zhenjin extended his four legs and chased after the Blue Dog Fox Wolf.


    However, just as he was about to leave the battlefield, he stopped his steps.


    He came in front of the Demon Beast Army’s rations.


    The Blue Dog Fox Wolf had fled too hastily, not having time to take these rations with it.


    Most of the rations were the bodies of Flying Squirrels and bat monkeys, followed by a pile of ore — the food of the Monkey-tailed Brown Bear.


    Zhenjin activated his Heart Core, absorbing and converting all of the bodies.


    The demon energy in the Heart Core was greatly replenished at once, and it brought some qualitative changes as well.


    “I can now fully transform into a Bronze Flying Squirrel, and the bat monkey form has also been upgraded to Black Iron Level!”


    After finishing all this, Zhenjin continued the chase.


    The Blue Dog Fox Wolf was seriously injured, and the violent running caused it to bleed profusely.


    Along the way, Zhenjin saw the trail of blood left behind by the Blue Dog Fox Wolf.


    After the Demon Beast Army withdrew for a distance, the Blue Dog Fox Wolf stopped to rest.


    Whenever the lizard Zhenjin got close, the bat monkeys would become restless, emitting warning calls.


    The Blue Dog Fox Wolf had to flee once more, engaging in intense activity again.


    Zhenjin found that every time he got close to the Demon Beast Army, the army would retreat rapidly, always preventing Zhenjin from getting completely close.


    Zhenjin understood, “It’s very scared of me now! It also knows that I’m hunting it.”


    “The bat monkeys have ultrasonic detection. It seems that with this lizard form, there’s no way for me to really get close.”


    “The Fat Ball Flying Fish won’t work either. Although it can become invisible, the ultrasonic detection would still allow the bat monkeys to find it. Plus, the Fat Ball Flying Fish also makes quacking noises.”
