Astral Apostle

Chapter 79: Emblem (1)

There were mutant beasts in the Subterraneans’ lair?

Everyone was stunned and quickly stopped what they were doing to observe the situation.

The roars became louder and louder. Soon, three mutated beasts of the same species crawled out of the nest.

These three mutated beasts looked like giant lizards with dense brown scales all over their bodies. Their necks resembled snakes, and they crawled on all fours. Two of their front limbs had wings attached, but they were rather shriveled, and they did not look like they could fly.

Its most prominent characteristic was its head which was similar to a dragon’s. It also had two extremely long canine teeth on its upper jaw.

“This is… a Violent Tooth Dragon?”

Zhou Jing’s eyes flickered as he thought of the mutated beasts that Barong had introduced him to. One of them matched what he was seeing.

There were many types of mutated beasts—wolves, bears, birds, and so on. Among them, the dragon race boasted the highest strength on average, and there was a branch of the dragon race called the drakes, which were often stronger than normal mutant beasts as well.

However, the Violent Tooth Dragon was an exception. Although it was part of the drake species, its strength was classified as the “Shame of the Dragon Race.” It was only a low-risk mutant beast.

Although it looked ferocious on the surface, it was actually just for show. It was only around slightly more than two meters long and was only as tall as one’s chest when it lay on the ground.

Violent Tooth Dragons were also one of the few mutant beasts that could be tamed.

At this moment, the necks of the three Violent Tooth Dragons were wrapped in bone chains, and they were being dragged by a few Subterraneans. There was a simple saddle tied to their backs, and they were clearly domesticated.

Barong’s eyes narrowed.

He did not expect this group of Subterraneans to rear mutant beasts… Although they were just an only low-risk beast, they were still mutant beasts. He had to give them some credit.

Three Violent Tooth Dragons and hundreds of armed Subterraneans…

Barong turned to look at everyone with a questioning gaze. His meaning was obvious — in this situation, should we attack or not?

Zhou Jing returned a look.

It’s just three low-risk mutant beasts. The three of us can split them and get rid of them quickly. If the two of you can’t do it, I can take care of them alone.

Since we’re already here, let’s f*ck them up!

Seeing this, Barong took a deep breath and no longer hesitated. He held his ax and rushed out.

“Go!”

The group immediately rushed out of the grass and attacked the group of Subterraneans who had just crawled out of their nest like headless flies.

After being attacked in a hurry, the Subterraneans did not have the time to organize a counterattack. They could only fight for themselves.

Some people drew their bows and shot arrows at Zhou Jing and the others. Some people held bone spears and shouted as they charged forward.

Zhou Jing took the lead and casually blocked the arrows. He dragged the blades around, leaving behind afterimages as he brushed past the Subterraneans without looking back.

Behind him, the few Subterraneans froze in the middle of raising their weapons. Blood spurted out their necks as they fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, three Subterraneans immediately mounted their Violent Tooth Dragons and rode their mounts to battle.

These three had better equipment than the others. While the others were all wearing tattered clothes, these three people at least had simple armor and held shields and sabers in their hands. They were the riders who had tamed the Violent Tooth Dragon.

One of the Subterraneans locked onto Zhou Jing and charged forward.

The beast charged head-on, emitting a ferocious aura.

Zhou Jing did not dodge. He merely held his two blades in front of him and faced the Violent Tooth Dragon.

As he breathed, his muscles suddenly bulged, and a powerful force erupted.

[Hunter’s Breath: Force]!

Clang!

His figure collided with the Violent Tooth Dragon, and dust flew everywhere!

The huge impact forced the Violent Tooth Dragon to stop its crawling charge. Two broken fangs flew into the sky.

The Subterranean rider was almost thrown off by the force of the counter.

Before he could stabilize himself, Zhou Jing had already flipped over and landed on the Violent Tooth Dragon’s back.

The Subterranean rider only had time to raise his shield.

Crack!

The shield instantly exploded.

The Subterranean rider was sent flying for more than ten meters before he crashed to the ground and died.

Mutant Blood Warriors were already akin to humanoid beasts. Their strength was far beyond what ordinary people could withstand. Even barehanded, they were still lethal.

At this moment, the Violent Tooth Dragon struggled violently, trying to shake Zhou Jing off.

However, Zhou Jing walked on it as if he was walking on flat ground. As the Violent Tooth Dragon swayed, he adjusted his center of gravity. He raised his two blades, stabbed them into the Violent Tooth Dragon’s neck, and slashed.

Puchi!

The dragon’s long neck fell heavily to the ground, leaving only a huge wound on its body. In the center was the cross-section of its cervical vertebrae.

The Violent Tooth Dragon fell to the ground, blood gushing out like a fountain.

It only took a few seconds to finish off a Violent Tooth Dragon. Compared to his previous self, this kind of low-risk beast with low defense and average speed wasn’t a challenge to Zhou Jing.

In the three months since he became a Mutant Beast Hunter, he had spent most of his time cultivating. Occasionally, he would go to White Plains Town to interact with other hunters. He had also been invited to participate in a few simple hunting missions and had hunted a few low-risk mutant beasts with other hunters. He had sufficient experience in dealing with mutant beasts.

Zhou Jing turned around and saw that the other Violent Toothed Dragon that had just passed him suddenly turned towards him.

He put away his two blades before taking off the heavy steel saber on his back. He held it with both hands before holding his breath.

In the next moment, an electrifying feeling exploded in his body.

[Thunder Strike]!

Zhou Jing’s eyes flashed as he suddenly swung and threw out the heavy saber in his hand.

The moment he attacked, an explosive force erupted!

Wuwuwu—

The wind rushed as the heavy saber spun and shot out, smashing into the body of the second Violent Tooth Dragon.
