Chapter 14 - Shocking Change! The Four Ferocious Beasts

Chapter 14: Shocking Change! The Four Ferocious BeastsQin Feng followed the scent of blood to its source. Soon, he found the first source of the bloody smell, a woman’s corpse. Upon seeing the corpse, his eyes lit up involuntarily. This meant that he could obtain new talents and that the Fangtooth was nearby. Immediately, he approached the corpse and began extraction…

A burst of white light appeared!

[Infinite Extraction Successful! Obtained 2 points of Agility attribute!]

Hmm … He only gained 2 points of Agility attribute.

Why didn’t he acquire a talent? Qin Feng was slightly taken aback.

Then he quickly realized the reason.

It should be that the talent the woman possessed was already owned by him, which rendered it valueless for extraction, resulting in the acquisition of attributes instead.

Of course, this was Qin Feng’s speculation.

But it was also true.

The talent the woman possessed was an F-rank Visual Enhancement, which was lower than Qin Feng’s E-rank Visual Augmentation, making it naturally valueless for extraction.

Qin Feng’s Infinite Extraction would randomly extract some attributes from the woman’s body. Having understood this, Qin Feng put away the woman’s newbie sword and continued his actions.

Following the scent of blood, he quickly found the second corpse, that of a middle-aged man.

He hurriedly approached and continued extraction …

[Infinite Extraction Successful! Obtained the F-rank talent – Enhanced Sense of Smell for the second time!]

[Two talents automatically stack and enhance, undergoing independent evolution …]

[Evolution failed … Your sense of smell talent remains at the F-rank.]

Qin Feng felt a bit regretful. But such talent evolution was probabilistic, so it was normal to fail.

At that moment, he put away the newbie sword beside the corpse and continued to search for more bodies.

Soon, dozens of meters away, he found the third corpse. It belonged to a muscular man who appeared to be someone who enjoyed exercising.

Once again, he began the extraction …

[Infinite Extraction Successful! Obtained the E-rank talent – Enhanced Physique!]

And it was the physique talent he needed the most!

Qin Feng was ecstatic.

With this, he now had the D-rank talent – Power Rampage for strength.

The E-rank talent – Speed Enhancement for agility.

The E-rank talent – Physique Enhancement for physique.

And the E-rank Visual Augmentation and F-rank Enhanced Sense of Smell.

All four aspects now had talent abilities, making his development balanced with no weaknesses.

This was truly amazing!

Qin Feng was overjoyed.

Indeed, extracting talents from human corpses yielded the greatest rewards!

He continued on!

He had to continue searching for corpses!

The Fangtooth Wild Boar had killed four people in total, but he had only found three bodies, so there should be one more corpse remaining. The last one should be Liu Yunchang. Qin Feng had some impression of Liu Yunchang.

He was a Level 2 powerhouse who seemed to have awakened a D-rank talent as well. Just the thought of a D-rank talent made him excited.

D-rank talents were relatively rare. In the entire beginner village, there were only 17 people who had awakened D-rank talents. Among them, Wang Qiang had died, and now Liu Yunchang had also died. So, there were only 15 people left who had awakened D-rank talents.

If he could find Liu Yunchang’s body, he would obtain Liu Yunchang’s D-rank talent. By then, he would possess two D-rank talents himself.

With this thought, Qin Feng’s anticipation grew, and he became more actively searching. After fifteen minutes, he had searched the surroundings but hadn’t found Liu Yunchang’s body or seen the Fangtooth Wild Boar.

How could Liu Yunchang’s body not be found?

They were clearly killed together! According to reason, his body should be near the other three corpses.

“Huh! That’s …” Just then, Qin Feng found a newbie short sword in a messy thicket. Near the short sword were some traces of ferocious beasts and signs of dragging a body. Following those traces, he discovered flattened wild grass and a trail of blood. Clearly, these were the traces left by the Fangtooth Wild Boar while dragging Liu Yunchang’s body.

Why did the Fangtooth Wild Boar drag Liu Yunchang’s body? Could it be that it wanted to eat the corpse?

With this thought, Qin Feng became anxious.

He quickly picked up the newbie short sword and began following the tracks.

If the Fangtooth Wild Boar had eaten the body, he would lose the opportunity to obtain the D-rank talent …

In this way, Qin Feng followed the trail, tracking it. After fifteen minutes, he reached the end. It was a slightly raised mound on the grassland. From a distance, it didn’t appear to be anything special. But as he got closer, he discovered a hidden cave entrance beneath the mound.

The trail of blood had disappeared right at the entrance of the cave. Obviously, the Fangtooth Wild Boar had dragged Liu Yunchang’s body into the cave.

“It seems to be here.” Qin Feng muttered to himself.

He walked near the entrance of the cave and looked inside. The cave was pitch black, and he couldn’t see anything clearly. It appeared to be dark and deep. Just then, a gentle breeze blew out from the cave, carrying a faint stench of blood, a musty odour, and a dampness.

For some reason, Qin Feng, who stood at the cave entrance, felt his scalp tingling. The cave gave him an extreme sense of danger. However, he quickly dismissed his thoughts, thinking that this cave should be the lair of the Fangtooth Wild Boar.

After all, the Fangtooth Wild Boar was just a Level 1 mutated beast, and with his current strength, he could easily kill it. With this in mind, he held his breath and prepared to enter the cave.

Suddenly, strange hissing sounds came from inside the cave.

Then, the ground began to tremble as if something was rushing toward the cave entrance.

Startled, Qin Feng quickly stepped back.

A red light flashed, and a huge ferocious beast rushed out of the cave. Qin Feng had a closer look and realized it was a seven-meter-long giant python. It looked similar to the Venomous Nine-ring Snake but larger, with ten rings on its body instead of nine.

Wasn’t this supposed to be the lair of the Fangtooth Wild Boar?

Why did a giant snake come out instead?

He activated his True Sight immediately …

[Beast]: Venomous Ten-Ring Snake (Mutant)

[Level]: Level 1

[Power Evaluation]: 5 Star

[Traits]: Ferocious, bloodthirsty, highly poisonous.

[Skills]: Poison Mist Spray Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

[Drop Rate]: 1%

[Status]: Enchanted and Controlled (Power is boosted under this state)

Qin Feng was both shocked and delighted. Encountering a mutant beast was rare and brought great rewards. Especially the drop rate of a mutant beast, which was ten times higher than that of a regular ferocious beast.

However, among Level 1 mutant ferocious beasts, the Silverback Gray Wolf had a power rating limit of 4 Star. Why did this Venomous Ten-Ring Snake have a power rating of 5 Star?

It was a small step higher!

What was even more surprising was that this giant snake had a skill of spraying poison mist, while the Silverback Gray Wolf didn’t possess any skills.

From this, it could be seen that this giant snake was much stronger than the Silverback Gray Wolf. Realizing this, Qin Feng didn’t dare to be careless. He drew his Blood Wolf Warblade and confronted the giant snake.

“Huh! What’s this …”

At that moment, under the scrutiny of his True Sight, he noticed an additional status attribute on the giant snake.

[Status]: Enchanted and Controlled (Power is boosted under this state)

No wonder the power of this giant snake reached 5 Star. It was originally in a peculiar state! But who was controlling it?

Qin Feng was puzzled as he carefully observed the Venomous Ten-Ring Snake. He saw that its snake eyes were blood-red, and it had a bewildered expression, which lacked any signs of intelligence …

Before he could think too much, three ferocious beasts rushed out of the cave.

They were a giant rabbit, a giant rat, and a massive wild boar, all with bloodshot eyes and bewildered expressions.

He quickly used his True Sight skill to scan the three ferocious beasts.

In the next second, his expression slightly changed.

These three were all mutant beasts, specifically Level 1 mutant Swordtooth Rabbit, Level 1 mutant Black Rat, and Level 1 mutant Fangtooth Wild Boar.

They were all in the controlled state, and their power ratings were all 5 Star.

In an instant, the fierce aura of the four mutant ferocious beasts intertwined, surrounding him …
