I Start with a Mysterious Island-Chapter 77: You Dishonorable Humans, Fight Me One-on-One If You Have Guts

Chapter 77: Chapter 77: You Dishonorable Humans, Fight Me One-on-One If You Have Guts

The smallest model of unmanned transport drone from the Superfast Recycling company could carry several hundred pounds of cargo.

Summoning the smallest model cost 300 yuan.

Looking at the rabbit beast before him, which only weighed a few dozen pounds, Lin Li scratched his head in a bind.

He couldn’t just call the smallest drone for a rabbit beast that weighed so little. That would be too much of a waste.

Lin Li thought for a moment. A few dozen pounds wasn’t that heavy. He decided he’d carry it for now and wait until he hunted another Mutant Beast. Then he could have the drone transport both of them back at once.

’I really am a frugal person...’ Praising himself internally, Lin Li bent down, picked up the rabbit beast he had killed, and continued deeper into the hills in search of more prey.

...

"ROAR..."

Deep within the hills, a beast’s furious roar echoed through the forest.

"You guys, stay back. Don’t get too close. Just support me with long-range attacks."

An Exotic Beast Hunter at the Second Rank Initial Stage, holding a Spiritual Longsword, spoke to his three Tier One Peak teammates behind him, his eyes fixed on the black Bear Beast before them, which already had several wounds on its body.

"Chen Gangshan, be careful!"

"I’ll be fine. Just watch out for yourselves."

The four Exotic Beast Hunters currently surrounding the black Bear Beast were the very same ones who had exchanged a few pleasantries with Lin Li earlier.

Limited by their own strength, the three Tier One Peak Hunters couldn’t face the black Bear Beast head-on.

They took out compact Spiritual Crossbows from their backpacks and attacked the over eight-foot-tall, burly black Bear Beast from different angles.

SWISH.

SWISH.

SWISH.

The bolts fired from the activated Spiritual Crossbows glowed with a faint golden Spiritual Light. Their speed suddenly increased after being fired, transforming into streaks of pale gold light that shot straight for the black Bear Beast’s head.

"ROAR."

Facing the enemy’s attack, the black Bear Beast let out a furious roar, raising its massive paws to swat at the incoming streaks of pale gold light.

SMACK.

SMACK.

THUNK.

Because the three bolts came from different angles, the black Bear Beast, with only two paws, could only block two of them. The third bolt sank into its side.

Fortunately, the black Bear Beast had a tough hide, so the bolt that pierced its side didn’t cause a very serious injury.

Chen Gangshan kept his eyes locked on the black Bear Beast. He had been an Exotic Beast Hunter for three years and was incredibly experienced in combat.

The moment he saw the Bear Beast move to block his teammates’ attacks, he seized the opportunity.

He bent his knees, kicked off the ground, and lunged forward in an instant. Closing the distance, he swung the Spiritual Longsword in his hand—glowing with a faint golden Spiritual Light—and stabbed toward the black Bear Beast’s heart.

Facing this ferocious strike, the black Bear Beast ignored the bolt stuck in its side. Enduring the intense pain, it hurriedly raised its left paw to block its chest.

SQUELCH.

The glowing Spiritual Longsword pierced through the black Bear Beast’s left paw. A look of regret flashed across Chen Gangshan’s face, as he had failed to pierce the beast’s heart in one strike.

He quickly withdrew his Spiritual Longsword, sidestepped, and stabbed at the black Bear Beast’s stomach.

SQUELCH.

Although the black Bear Beast was prepared for Chen Gangshan’s second wave of attack, trying to dodge by pulling in its stomach, it was still hit. The wound wasn’t deep, but blood gushed out.

SWISH.

SWISH.

SWISH.

The sound of bolts glowing with faint golden light slicing through the air rang out again. With a series of thuds, all three bolts struck the black Bear Beast.

"ROAR..."

The black Bear Beast, hit repeatedly, let out a pained roar. It hated these dishonorable humans! If they had any guts, they’d fight it one-on-one!

"Keep it up, everyone! This Bear Beast is about to collapse!" Chen Gangshan, who was tying down the beast, saw its heavy injuries and quickly shouted to his teammates behind him. "Don’t stop attacking! Don’t give it a chance to catch its breath." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Alright," the three teammates responded in unison. They quickly took new bolts from their quivers, loaded them, and fired at the black Bear Beast that Chen Gangshan had pinned down.

SWISH.

SWISH.

SWISH.

The sound of bolts cutting through the air echoed one after another, accompanied by the Mutant Beast’s agonized roars.

This was the advantage of Exotic Beast Hunters forming a team. Ganging up to kill a Mutant Beast was far more efficient than hunting one alone.

However, because the profits had to be split, the final earnings were much lower than what one would get from a solo hunt.

As time went on, the black Bear Beast began to falter under the siege of the four Exotic Beast Hunters.

It wasn’t that the beast hadn’t thought of escaping, but Chen Gangshan was relentlessly hounding it. If it dared to turn and run, it would give him the perfect opportunity to land a killing blow.

"ROAR..."

After taking another sword strike from Chen Gangshan, the black Bear Beast let out another agonized roar.

This roar was much louder than the previous ones, its tone filled with despair.

"This Bear Beast sure can scream! It’s been roaring this whole time and its voice isn’t even hoarse yet. That’s impressive."

One of the Exotic Beast Hunters said with a laugh to his teammate as he took a bolt from his quiver and loaded it onto his Spiritual Crossbow.

"Yeah! It won’t stop. My ears are starting to hurt."

"This thing’s hide is seriously tough. It’s taken so many bolts and it’s still standing..."

Perhaps because victory was close, the three support Hunters couldn’t help but relax a little.

"You three, stop chatting! I’ve been fighting this Bear Beast for a long time, and I’ve used up a lot of my stamina and Spiritual Energy. Hurry up and keep attacking this thing so we can finish it off and get some rest," Chen Gangshan said to his three teammates as he dodged one of the Bear Beast’s swipes.

"Right." The three support Hunters replied, immediately quickening their rate of fire. The sound of bolts slicing through the air rang out repeatedly.

The battle to kill the black Bear Beast continued. It looked as if the four Exotic Beast Hunters were about to take it down.

But just then, a roar far louder than any cry from the nearly defeated Bear Beast erupted from a thick patch of grass in the distance.
