Chapter 102: Encountering the Magic Race

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Ding hid in a large tree and stared closely at a canine-like animal through the dense foliage.

The daunting creature, with a length of more than ten meters and covered in black fur was lying on the ground, ripping apart its food. The sound of bones crunching in its mouth every few seconds.

Predators were the most alert when eating and it was also the time when they were the most easily provoked. Because food was everything to them, they would even resort to killing their own kind for food.

However, this time it was not the predator, but Gu Ding who was lurking not far away.

Predators who were fully focused on eating were still not vulnerable because they instinctively stay on guard, but Gu Ding still waited. Then, it made a fatal mistake. It bit too big a mouth and a long bone lodged itself in its throat.

Gu Ding sprang into action. His ultimate art of the level 7 limit exploded with full force, his body swooped down from the branch and landed steadily on the head of the giant beast. With one foot planted on the giant’s neck, a huge force suddenly erupted from Gu Ding’s foot, passing through the body of the giant beast.

Clack!

The sound of a crisp bone fracture quickly passed through Gu Ding’s ears. The beast then lost all vitality instantly.

A 300-point cell index, power ten times the regular amount of the ultimate arts of the Level 7, two times the increase in armaments, and three times the increase of the Level 2 Rage Attack. All of these factors allowed Gu Ding’s one Phantom Kick to have an attack power of 18,000 points, instantly obliterating the armor of the seventh-order genetic monster.

“I did very well this time, there was no need for a second attack. I killed it with one hit.” Biggie nodded with satisfaction. “It’s been more than half an hour and you have grown from being the hunted into the hunter. Your martial arts skills are simply perfect for hunting.”

The three had been wandering through the dense jungle for over half an hour. What had just been hunted by Gu Ding previously was the third seventh order geno body. Based on the way things stood, his actual combat ability appeared to have made considerable progress.

When he fought in the past, he used to plan out his attacks as well as how he would evade his opponents. But with Biggie’s advice, Gu Ding adopted a new yet simple approach—how to kill his opponent in the shortest time.

Of course, Gu Ding’s fighting talent was exceptional. In just half an hour, he had basically mastered the key to real combat.

The energy crystal beads were dug out of the monster’s brain, Gu Ding then threw them into the storage space, and continued to walk into the depths of the jungle. Liliath and Biggie also followed.

Enemies below Level 7 were the targets for Liliath’s training.

There was no problem with her marksmanship and her awareness in combat was also particularly good, but her pupillary abilities were not exerted very much, so Neptune allowed her to exercise the use of her pupillary abilities.

A day of practice passed quickly. Apart from encountering an eighth-order gene body on the way which Biggie took care of, the rest of the encounters were handled by Gu Ding and Liliath.

The progress made by the two surprised Biggie.

The night was getting darker and the three finally stopped moving forward, planning to rest and set up camp for the night.

Upon finding an open space, the three lit a bonfire. Biggie cut the meat, set the barbed wire, and began to roast.

“It seems that space-time backtracking has lasted all day.” Liliath looked at the surrounding environment, there was not much change. She was slightly worried.

“If you imagine the universe as a game, then space-time backtracking is a bug in the game. Once it is detected, it will be repaired at the very first moment. Rest assured, this phenomenon of space-time backtracking has never been heard to last more than 3 days,” Neptune said comfortingly.

“It’ll do us good if we can enjoy two more days of actual combat practice.” After a day of actual combat, Gu Ding felt that his strength had improved. It was not the improvement in combat effectiveness but rather the change in combat methods that made him stronger.

The presence of campfires and the overwhelming aroma of meat quickly attracted a number of carnivores.

This situation was used as a means of real-life combat exercise by Gu Ding and Liliath. The battle between the two and the horde of creatures continued until late into the night, until a mysterious mist arose. Other creatures seemed to detect something terrible as they approached, and then fled. Within a minute, the area surrounding the campsite went dead silent.

The three of them were not at all sleepy and only grew more vigilant.

“What exactly made those powerful beasts so scared?” Liliath frowned slightly. She had turned the firearm in her hand into the most powerful nuclear reactive canon, enough to level a small town.

“It’s humans, they are starting to get close!” Neptune soon detected the other party’s movement. “There are more than thirty people, wearing animal robes, presumably residents of this planet.”

The white mist became thicker and thicker. Gu Ding and Liliath felt their consciousness began to fade and only then realized that the mist was poisonous. But it was too late and the two collapsed onto the floor.

Biggie also felt a little dizzy and then realized that there was something wrong with the mist. After picking up Gu Ding and Liliath, he attempted to run away. But it seemed that the whole forest was covered in the mist. He could not escape and soon fainted.

When Gu Ding regained consciousness, he found that he was tied to a big tree with a special rattan. He tried to break out a few times, but the rattan remained strong.

“No need to struggle anymore, even I can’t even break free from it,” said Biggie helplessly not far away.

At this moment, Liliath finally woke up. “Who the hell are those guys? Why would they catch us and tie us up?”

“These people are a magic tribe…” Neptune’s voice rang in the ears of the three.

“The magic tribe who strengthened themselves by seizing other people’s abilities back in the middle ages?!” Gu Ding frowned. This was definitely not good news.

“Yes, we are very unlucky! Even our spacecraft was discovered by them, but with their power, there is no way for them to damage our spacecraft, nor can they enter it.” They could not tell whether this piece of news from Neptune was good or bad.

“Biggie, have you tried cutting these rattans with your primary power?” Gu Ding asked.

“I don’t know why but my primary power can’t be used. It feels like it has left my body.” Biggie was also depressed.

“This rattan has been used by them as a means of dampening magical powers and has the ability to block all forms of energy, including true elements and various other special abilities. This is the method of the magic tribe, which is why they’re capable of capturing stronger people back in the Middle Ages.” This explanation by Neptune was completely worse.

“If I guessed right, our abilities will soon be taken away by someone and then we’ll be thrown into the wilderness.” Liliath pouted as if to mock herself.

“Don’t worry, there may be room for us to turn things around.” Gu Ding was silent for a moment but suddenly asked, ” Neptune, can you help me translate?”

“No problem, I will block your voice out later, and then interpret it to them directly. As for what they say, I will also relay it to you.” When the three of them were unconscious, Neptune had heard and recognized the language used by the magic tribe, it was a standard ancient language that existed in the database.

“Perhaps, we can try talking to them.” Gu Ding tried to remain optimistic
