Ye Chong sometimes thinks that if he had a manor or farm of his own, he would definitely raise all kinds of small animals on his own land.
Especially dogs.
Big dogs are fine too.
Two dogs are fine too.
If possible, it would be better to have a paparazzi.
Of course, that was just his dream before the environment changed.
Nowadays, in the face of the fierce global animal trend, he has long had no plans to keep pets.
But at this moment, when he suddenly faced these three cute mutant bear cubs, for some reason, the impulse buried in his heart was once again aroused.
Speaking of which, his heart was really messed up.
kill?
Or not to kill?
This is a very real problem before him.
Ye Chong is not an indecisive person, but he is not a ruthless person, nor is he a cold-blooded beast.
"Too small."
Ye Chong frowned slightly, turned around and left.
While crossing the valley, he collected a lot of flowers and plants along the way.
Seeing that the sky silk bag could no longer be packed, he picked out some older herbs according to the types of herbs he needed to collect in his memory, and put them into a military backpack.
Soon, he arrived at the place filled with mist. After a brief inspection, his doubts were alleviated by three points.
The sour smell is caused by the mist.
The mist does not arise out of thin air, but emerges from the cracks in the rocks.
The reason why these mist condenses and does not disperse is because its viscosity, humidity and density are very high. Even strong winds of level 7 or 8 may not be able to disperse it.
In addition, these mists, which look slightly black in the night, not only have a pungent smell, but are also highly corrosive. There is no doubt that this is the main reason why the mutant beasts are reluctant to approach.
He also discovered a characteristic of the mist.
Soundproof.
In a valley surrounded by mist, even at the edge of the mist, you can hardly hear any sounds outside the mist.
Whoosh!
Ye Chong quietly got out of the mist and listened carefully, but he could not sense the scene in the valley at all.
Just when he was sighing at the wonder, a scream suddenly came from a few hundred meters to the southeast.
"It doesn't sound like a human cry."
"It's not like a beast roaring."
"What is that?!"
Ye Chong looked at the sky, which was already white as fish belly, and then ducked out of sight, disappearing into the grass in front of him.
Somewhere southeast of the misty Rift Zone.
Two SS1-level mutant bears sandwiched Ximen Lie between them, and they continued to launch violent attacks.
The latter was left and right, staggering and miserable, with no place to dry all over his body.
All wet.
Not sweat.
It's all blood.
Especially the mouth is like a fountain, and the teeth that are exposed from time to time are also blood-red, making it look eerie.
The eyes of the two SS1 level mutant bears are also blood red, filled with madness, greed and impatience.
Bang!
Click!
Ah~!
Before Ximen Lie could dodge, his left shoulder was hit by the fat mutant bear in front of him, and his right leg was hit by the tall and thin mutant bear from behind. He screamed in agony and fell to his knees.
Roar~
roar!
The two SS1-level mutant bears each slapped their chests and rushed towards Ximen Lie.
At this moment, a sad look appeared in the latter's eyes, and he seemed to be murmuring: "General Lu will not let you go, Mr. Ye..."
At this moment, a word suddenly floated in the wind: "Fuck!"
The two SS1 level mutant bears were stunned.
The next moment, a black bolt fell from the sky.
As a result, the tall, thin mutant bear's head instantly spun and rolled to the ground, with endless blood rising into the sky.
At the same time, the fat mutant bear turned around and ran away at an incredible speed.
But almost at the same time, the black spear suddenly bloomed again, falling from top to bottom.
puff!
Amidst the soft sound, the fat mutant bear ran forward, and his body suddenly split in two, each falling to one side.
"Fuck."
Ximen Lie's eyes were dazed and he howled, as if he couldn't believe what he saw before him.
"Are you incontinent?"
"It stinks."
Ye Chong floated down, then flicked one hand, and the blood stains on the Starry Sky Blade quickly shot into the distance, making a snapping sound.
Ximen Lie didn't speak, swallowed a mouthful of blood, then his eyes flashed, and he pounced on the tall, thin SS1 level mutant bear's head.
"Put it down." Ye Chong's cold voice sounded, "Believe it or not, I will stuff you into its belly?"
"General Lu..." Ximen Lie hugged the tall, thin SS1-level mutant bear's big head, looking unyielding.
"Put it down." Ye Chong pointed forward with the Starry Sky Blade in his hand, "You can doubt me as a person, but it's best not to doubt my sword."
"You almost killed me, this is compensation." Ximen Lie insisted.
"Wrong, you should have led me into the valley and almost killed me, right?" Ye Chong smiled coldly and stared at the other person closely, "Tell me, what is your real purpose?"
"What else?" Ximen Lie wiped his bloody face, "Of course it's for the medicinal herbs."
"Hehe," Ye Chong smiled casually, snatched the man-bear head from the opponent's hand, and said while taking the beast's eyes, "Treat me as a child, right?"
"Ye Chong, can you give me a set of beast eyes of a beast general-level human bear?" Ximen Lie looked at the other party eagerly, "I urgently need this kind of thing now."
"Hey, that's it." Ye Chong smiled half-heartedly, "You designed this journey, it's really not easy."
"Ye Chong, you also know that I have been a junior martial arts warrior for a long time." Ximen Lie coughed lightly, spit out a mouthful of bloody sputum, and then said, "But I dare not break through now because I am afraid that my martial arts will fail.
If it is not wide enough, the road in the future will become narrower and narrower."
"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the beast eyes of the mutant bear, right?" Ye Chong smiled slightly, "Maybe you should be like me and continue to accumulate victories, so that your martial arts path can become wider and wider."
"It's not that simple." Ximen Lie looked sad and shook his head, "Not everyone can take the path of accumulating victory.
Even if you win against a weakling, your victory won't increase much, or it may not increase at all.
When fighting against a strong person, it is good to win, which will definitely increase your chances of victory, but the possibility of failure is also very high.
The problem is that once you fail, you will lose a lot of the victory you have accumulated previously, and it is simply a loss that outweighs the gain.
Just like our last battle in the military camp, the victory you gain after defeating me is what I lose.
You are happy, but what about me?
In fact, all my early efforts were in vain.
Therefore, I must choose another path, which is to increase my winning potential through secretly prepared elixirs, so that my future martial arts path will not be too narrow."
