Chapter 138: You Won’t Even Know How You Died!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The victor was decided.
The monster controller freshmen quickly brought fire extinguishers forward to extinguish the fire on the Demonic Halberd Pig in a flurry of motion.
Fang Lin used a brainwave booster that provided him with greater authority to take over the controlling rights of the Demonic Halberd Pig while he had another student check whether the red-haired boy’s mental strength index did not go over the limit.
This sort of failure might actually break a person’s mind.
Even half a minute after Meng Chao pulled back, the red-haired boy remained dispirited.
“Why? Could you predict the Demonic Halberd Pig’s charge?” He looked at Meng Chao with eyes full of puzzlement.
“It’s wind pressure. I can sense wind pressure,” Meng Chao explained. “Many of the supporter cla.s.s pract.i.tioners cultivate more than one hundred branch meridians, which gives them sharper senses than those in fighting occupations. For example, a harvester’s hands and eyes will usually perform precise maneuvers better than those of a martial artist who only knows how to release simple and crude powerful moves.
“And the Ultimate Style’s unique cultivation method and medicine formula allows the strength of the 1,024 branch meridians to increase above 50%. Spirit energy fills our bodies, and our sensitivity increases by leaps and bounds.
“So, when such a large Demonic Halberd Pig charged at me, the wind pressed against my skin in a painful way, as if there were needles p.r.i.c.king at me, so of course I knew from where it was attacking.
“While the spirit energy provided by main meridians is stronger, you need to acc.u.mulate power for them. However, the activation speed of the spirit energy provided by the branch meridians is faster. So, I can instantly execute force.
“That’s why I could make the decision to travel backwards in the direction of Demonic Halberd Pig’s charge in 0.1 seconds. The relative speed between us was reduced to zero, and I managed to neutralize its impact to the maximum degree.”
The red-haired boy started whispering with the other monster controller freshmen.
It had not been long since they enrolled in university, so their understanding toward the fighting occupations were still low. When they met the elites of the martial arts course in the tournament, they only thought about using powerful moves at the moment their opinions clashed. Even though the electricity and damage of the killing moves were really shocking, when they thought about it seriously, it seemed like Meng Chao’s terrifying senses and movement speed were actually much more frightening.
“So, why was your incendiary so powerful?” The red-haired boy thought about this carefully, but only found himself puzzled. “My Demonic Halberd Pig has thick skin, and it’s not supposed to be afraid of fire.”
“I added some stuff to the incendiary. It’s the powder made from dried Heart-devouring Bugs,” Meng Chao said faintly. “Demonic Halberd Pigs who live in the wild usually travel in droves and repeatedly rub themselves in resin.
“Their armor becomes domineering because of that, and no one can stop their charge, but aside from the fearsome superbeasts, there’s an insignificant bug that also happens to be their mortal enemy, and it’s called the Heart-devouring Bug.
“This bug lives on plants that secrete a lot of resin. It quietly crawls on the Demonic Halberd Pigs when they rub themselves with resin, and through their a.n.u.ses, they will crawl into their bodies and all the way from their intestines to their stomachs. Then, from there, they eat their way up to their hearts.
“While eating the pig from inside, they also lay a lot of eggs. In the end, they devour the Demonic Halberd Pig until there’s nothing but an empty husk left.
“When Demonic Halberd Pigs travel in droves, they fight desperately when they face superbeasts, but they can do nothing when it comes to these insignificant bugs. Even one of them crawling into them means the death of a pig, and it will die in a very tragic and painful manner.
“When the Demonic Halberd Pig smelled the powder of the Heart-devouring Bug I added into the incendiary, it thought that its mortal enemy had invaded its body, which was why it got so scared.”
The monster controller freshmen came to an understanding. Their hearts filled with complicated emotions, and they also felt horrible.
They had to admit that Meng Chao’s knowledge of monsters and their habits was far above that of a normal martial artist.
But if he used this sort of method, was he not a little... opportunistic? It was similar to the fight during the admission test. He did not just use his fighting prowess to gain victory.
Fang Lin took a step forward and said with a frown, “It’s impossible for the Demonic Halberd Pig to instantly descend into such fear with just the scent of a Heart-devouring Bug. What else did you do?”
“As expected of an uppercla.s.smen. You did notice that I had done something,” Meng Chao admitted readily with a smile. “While the fire disrupted its vision, I went behind the Demonic Halberd Pig’s b.u.t.t and used the dagger to stab its a.n.u.s lightly, imitating the way a Heart-devouring Bug would enter.
“So, it’s only natural that it was scared witless. This feeling was then sent to the monster controller. He felt a chill on his b.u.t.t and instantly lost all his combat effectiveness, which led to him not even noticing me when I went behind his back.
“Ah...” The monster controller freshmen let out cries of surprise.
Even though using Heart-devouring Bug powder was a little despicable, Meng Chao’s ability to quietly move behind the Demonic Halberd Pig and use his dagger to poke its a.n.u.s was terrifying, because his movements and technique were like those of a phantom!
“As expected of the top-scorer of the martial artist course’s admission test, you do indeed have some tricks up your sleeves. Looks like the martial arts course has its own secret weapon as well!”
Praise appeared in Fang Lin’s eyes. He turned his head around and asked, “Who’s next?”
“Me!” A girl with a crew cut and a really hot body as well as face strode forward. “I’m monster controller course’s Huang Ting. Please provide me with your guidance!”
Huang Ting controlled a monster known as Dinofelis.
On Earth, Dinofelis was a subspecies of the saber-toothed tigers. They were rather small, and their saw teeth were also shorter.
But compared to the saber-toothed tigers’ long but fragile fangs, these shorter teeth were stronger and more suitable for killing primates as well as humans’ ancestors.
Earth’s archaeologists had once discovered a lot of holes left by Dinofelis on the skulls of early humans. They were the true human killers.
If they could be known as Dinofelis, which meant terror cats, on Earth, it was easy to imagine just how terrifying these creatures had become in the Other World.
And as biochemical beasts, Dinofelises were genetically and mechanically modified through unique methods.
Their fangs and claws were changed to super alloys, which were controlled by their tendons, and they could extend them to three different lengths. They could be used to tear apart an armored tank with just one swipe or rip apart a monster’s throat.
They also had a thin panniculus carnosus under their ribs. When it spread open, they could glide for a short period of time like a flying squirrel, which increased their agility and hunting range.
Huang Ting’s position among the monster controller freshmen was similar to that of Sun Ya, Xie Feng, and the rest of the Four Great Kings in the martial arts course.
She was born of a monster controller family. Her parents were both monster controllers, and when she started learning to speak, she came into contact with a lot of monsters. She was especially skilled in controlling agile middle-sized and small feline-type monsters. With a Dinofelis, she had managed to defeat many of her coursemates’ monsters, which were up to five times bigger than her monster.
When she saw that the specialty of Meng Chao’s Ultimate Style was agility, she decided to volunteer.
“Huang Ting, h.e.l.lo.”
Meng Chao nodded at her and sheaved his dagger at his waist. He did not draw his handguns but left his hands empty.
This action angered Huang Ting. A strange spark shone in her eyes as she controlled her Dinofelis. It turned into a black afterimage that pounced on Meng Chao.
This time, Meng Chao did not dodge. In an instant, the Dinofelis landed on him.
‘I knew it. The Dinofelis’ speed and agility are close to five times higher than those of a Demonic Halberd Pig. It’s definitely not something that can be dodged by just having your spirit energy fill your branch meridians!’
Huang Ting smirked, but she decided to show some mercy. She had her Dinofelis use the shortest length of its claws to swipe at Meng Chao’s chest.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
Blood spilled out.
Meng Chao’s tactical jacket and uniform were torn. His blood spilled out and turned into two spurts of blood that spurted out toward the Dinofelis’ eyes.
Since Huang Ting and the Dinofelis were synchronized, both of them turned their heads away instinctively.
Meng Chao was like a slippery loach and broke free of the Dinofelis.
Huang Tian wanted the Dinofelis to chase after him, but suddenly, her face twisted with pain. She covered her ears and started staggering around as if she were drunk.
The others could only watch as Meng Chao went behind her and did the same thing as in the previous fight. He placed his dagger under her chin.
They cried out in surprise, but they could not snap Huang Ting out of her daze.
“How could this be?!”
Losing two rounds in a row was not a problem. But they did not even know how they lost, and that made them feel really gloomy.
“An infrasound buzzer!”
Fang Lin took over the Dinofelis and immediately covered his left ear. He staggered before he regained his balance with shock on his face.
He took two steps forward and touched the dizzy Dinofelis. Then, he found something resembling a b.u.t.ton in its ear ca.n.a.l.
Infrasound buzzers gave off low-frequency waves that humans could not hear. They were usually installed in mosquito extinguis.h.i.+ng lamps, and in the wild, they could be used to make mutated mosquitoes fly to their own deaths.
The Dinofelis’ genes were modified, so its hearing was even more sensitive compared to that of a wild Dinofelis. Its cochlea was also even more sensitive and fragile.
Since Meng Chao had discreetly stuffed an infrasound buzzer into its ear ca.n.a.l, its hearing faced a great interference, and it lost its balance as well.
“When did you?” Fang Lin’s pupils shrank. “You intentionally let yourself be hugged by the Dinofelis. Even if you’d end up injured, it would let you stuff a buzzer into its ear ca.n.a.l... But how could you be so certain that you could flee from the Dinofelis?”
Meng Chao tore open his s.h.i.+rt to reveal his wound.
There was a long and narrow scratch on his chest, but he had used spirit energy to control his muscles and seal the wound. Not a drop of blood spilled out.
At first glance, it looked like he had received a perfect suture.
“I can even control my leg hairs. It’s not a problem for me to accurately control my muscles and flee from a monster’s claws.”
Fang Lin fell silent.
Huang Lin recovered from her dizziness. She looked dazed, as if she could not believe what had happened.
Most of the monster controller freshmen were dumbfounded.
“You only know tricks. That’s not your true skill.”
Some of them felt humiliated after losing twice in a row, so they started grumbling under their breaths.
Fang Lin’s expression turned dark. He wanted to turn his head around to scold them, but Meng Chao had already removed his tactical jacket and tossed it far away, which meant he also tossed away all his monster materials and trinkets.
Rip!
He tore off a long strip from his uniform, then a few more. He tied the large piece of cloth over his head and covered his eyes. Then, he rolled the other two pieces into b.a.l.l.s and stuffed them into his ears.
He raised his empty hands and spoke with a smile. “Next, I won’t be using any items or weapons. Will that do?”
“What?!” Fang Lin’s expression changed.
The monster controller freshmen were incredibly excited.
“I’ll do it!”
A tall and thin boy with a sharp gaze strode forward.
After him came a wolf-shaped monster that had a back as sharp as a scimitar. Even so, it walked silently.
