The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

The autumn wind howls.

Withered yellow leaves fell from the sky, passing over the open space between Yu Ke and the ferocious beast.

Yu Ke didn't dare to slack off at all, widened his eyes, and faced off against the ferocious beast not far away.

During the training process, forest rangers will have special courses to explain the more common ferocious beasts in Jinghu Forest.

Among them is this guy in front of me!

Codename: Mandrill.

It was mutated from the mountain baboons in the Jinghu Forest. Not only did it increase in size and change in appearance, the mutated mandrill had an extremely powerful body and an intelligence that was no less than that of a seven-year-old child!

Even more troubling is that mandrills are extremely bloodthirsty and have a soft spot for attacking humans.

Six months ago, there was even a vicious incident in which swarms of mandrills attacked a transport convoy.

Yu Ke never expected that he would suddenly encounter this monster here.

Still ambushed at close range!

Holding the recurve bow tightly, Yu Ke's gaze shifted from the mandrill's face to its shoulders, his face becoming more and more gloomy.

There is an obvious gunshot scar on the mandrill's right shoulder, which is enough to prove that it has fought with other rangers and hunters or troops sent by the government in the past and survived, and it is extremely hostile to humans.

It was most likely that it heard the sound of an off-road vehicle, and then followed it, waiting for Yu Ke to go deep into the jungle and reappear!

This place is at least about a kilometer away from where Yu Ke parked his off-road vehicle, so there is no possibility of escaping by off-road vehicle.

The battle is inevitable!

The mandrill stood behind the bush where he was hiding before, turned up his lips, opened his mouth and let out a short roar, and a very human and sarcastic look appeared on his face.

It's mocking Yu Ke for falling into a trap

On his first day as a ranger hunter, he was ridiculed by a beast. Yu Ke's expression was calm, and his half-closed eyes flashed coldly.

Since he dared to come to Jinghu Forest, he certainly had some skills to rely on.

Gu! Gu Gu!

A short bird call suddenly sounded from the branches overhead.

This was like a signal to start a war. Yu Ke and Mandrill took action at the same time.

Using the fastest speed to bend his bow and set up an arrow, Yu Ke decisively used the weapons at hand to attack the enemy first. However, the mandrill seemed to have predicted the former's actions in advance. Almost at the same time, he leaned directly into the bushes to avoid the fierce rush. The arrows shot.

He immediately broke through the bushes and rushed towards Yu Ke on all fours.

Its past combat experience makes it feel that as long as it can avoid the long-range weapons in human hands and forcefully rush to the opponent's side, it can easily tear the opponent into pieces and have a feast!

The distance between the two sides was less than 20 meters, and the mandrill's speed of leaning forward was even more exaggerated, giving Yu Ke no time to bend his bow and nock an arrow again.

In fact, Yu Ke had no intention of using a bow and arrow again.

Facing this ferocious beast running rampant on the outskirts of Jinghu Forest, the instantaneous burst of bows and arrows was not enough.

Especially after seeing the mandrill easily dodging arrows, Yu Ke did not hesitate to put aside the recurve bow and instead grabbed the double-barreled shotgun behind him. According to the operating regulations of forest rangers, the shotgun had already been loaded. Completed in order to cope with this unexpected situation.

Close combat is the way to go!

At this critical moment, Yu Ke couldn't care less whether the sound of gunshots and smoke would attract other ferocious beasts.

Without saying a word, he pulled the trigger on the mandrill that was running towards him.

The bullets scattered towards the mandrill that had just rushed in front of Yu Ke. This guy actually did not retreat at all in the face of the gunfire. He crossed his arms to block the fatal part of his head, allowing the bullets to break through the flesh of his arms, causing blood to splash everywhere.

For ordinary beasts, this shot would be enough to knock them down completely, but the physical strength of the mandrill in front of him was obviously unusual, especially the long arms, which looked bloody and bloody, but were actually still able to move.

Even though Yu Ke saw this scene, he was still stunned for half a second. He had learned about the mandrill at the forest protection bureau, and it stands to reason that the specially modified shotgun in his hand should be able to cause serious damage to it.

With his eyes focused, Yu Ke quickly noticed that the color of the mandrill's two forearms was wrong. When it got closer, he discovered that they were covered in dried mud mixed with rattan.

This monster has actually learned to use foreign objects to enhance its defense!

Humans are constantly learning, evolving, and mastering more technologies in the fight against natural disasters and beasts, and this mandrill actually has similar characteristics. Yu Ke doesn't know whether it is an abnormal individual or a mutation of the ethnic group.

But one thing is for sure.

This battle must determine the outcome, and we must not let the tiger go back to the mountain.

Otherwise, this mandrill may become a big trouble for him in his subsequent work.

Thinking of this, Yu Ke lowered the muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger again. This time he gave up on headshots and changed his goal to kill as much damage as possible.

Outstanding effect!

The mandrill, which had already rushed several meters away, could not protect other parts of its body while protecting its head. The shot fired from this shot directly hit the mandrill's waist, abdomen and legs.

Although it failed to cause fatal injuries, it still let out a cry of pain.

The injury further aroused the monster's ferocity. With only a few meters left, the mandrill gave up its defense and charged at Yu Ke with its teeth and claws bared. Its turbid yellow eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes and its mouth was full of fangs.

A strong fishy smell hit my face, and the roar of the mandrill was very close.

Yu Ke knew very well that turning around and running away in the face of this situation was tantamount to suicide. In this forest, he could not get rid of this crazy mandrill even with all his strength.

We can only fight head-on!

Throwing away the double-barreled shotgun in his hand to lighten his load, Yu Ke dodged sideways and drew out the dogleg knife from his waist.

At the moment when the two sides collided, the mandrill, which had been dodged in the head-on collision, swung its right arm and hit Yu Ke in the chest. The latter's dog-leg knife also broke through the flesh on its waist and opened a finger-long wound.

The strong force pushed Yu Ke away and hit the tree trunk next to him.

The highly tense spirit and soaring adrenaline reduced the pain. The dull pain in his chest and back still made Yu Ke grin, but he did not dare to relax for a moment and quickly straightened up and rushed towards the mandrill.

When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!

A man and an animal collided in the forest, engaging in the most brutal close combat!

There is no doubt that the mandrill's strength far exceeds that of Yu Ke, but it has also withstood two rounds of shotgun fire, plus a knife wound on its waist. It would be false to say that it has no impact. The flexibility of its limbs has been greatly reduced, and its body The shape cannot help but become dull.

Use your own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses.

The previous impact made Yu Ke well aware of the mandrill's power, so he deliberately avoided a head-on collision. Instead, he circled the mandrill, dodging with dexterous movements, sometimes retreating, sometimes advancing, and advancing and retreating well.

The dog-leg knives provided by the Forestry Protection Bureau to forest rangers are specially supplied products. They are extremely sharp and hard. They can easily break through the mandrill's skin and leave wounds on it.

However, Yu Ke is just an ordinary person after all. Compared with Mandrill, high-intensity close combat is an extremely severe test for his physical fitness and concentration, and Mandrill is not a target in the training ground.

Sensing the decline in his physical strength, Yu Ke looked around, looking for the weapon he had temporarily abandoned.

He needs a final word!

After realizing that he was not sensitive enough, Mandrill no longer dodged when faced with Yu Ke's dog-legged knife, and actually let him stab into his waist. He immediately grabbed Yu Ke's shoulder with one hand, and raised his remaining arm with a roar. He hit Yu Ke's head hard.

Trade injury for life!

The arms wrapped in mud and rattan were almost like hammers, roaring towards him.

It can be injured by many mistakes. The ferocious beast's tenacious vitality is enough to support the mandrill to survive, but Yu Ke cannot withstand this blow. If it hits, he will immediately have to pay the price with his life!

Without any hesitation, Yu Ke turned the dogleg knife in his right hand sideways, opening the wound and causing more pain. Then he kicked the mandrill in the abdomen and used the recoil to forcefully break free, leaving only half of his cuffs.

Barely avoiding the heavy hammer that went straight to his head, he leaned back and used his waist and abdomen to resist.

Yu Ke only felt that his whole body was flying up in the violent impact, and when he fell to the ground, he felt severe pain all over his body. It was at this critical moment that he caught a glimpse of a recurve bow not far away from the corner of his eye.

He stood up in cold sweat, gritted his teeth and stepped forward.

Seeing Yu Ke turning his back to him and trying to escape, the mandrill opened his mouth, held on to the multiple bleeding wounds, roared and charged, rushed behind Yu Ke in a few steps, and jumped into the air.

At the critical moment.

What the pair of beast pupils soaked in blood reflected was an arrow shooting towards him!

Yu Ke, whose face turned pale, fell to the ground. The severe pain made his forehead covered with cold sweat, and he couldn't stop breathing. The corners of his mouth were covered with blood from the heavy fall just now, but even so, he still did not give up the reflex in his hand. Curved bow.

He bent his bow with all his strength and shot arrows at the mandrill's head in front of him, whose left eye was penetrated by an arrow.

It wasn't until he was completely exhausted that Yu Ke stopped tremblingly and fell among the fallen leaves on the ground. He felt his eyes turning black.

At this moment, Yu Ke suddenly felt as if something was shattering in his body. Some kind of indescribable energy was flowing through his limbs, and the injuries everywhere on his body were infiltrated by a cool energy.

This is not an illusion!

Realizing a certain possibility, Yu Ke focused his attention and opened the panel of the career tag system.

Sure enough, the label of ranger hunter has completely changed to light blue.

Yu Ke's previous speculation was correct.

Mandrills are one of the hunting targets within the Forestry Defense Bureau. Yu Ke's successful hunting of them is undoubtedly in line with the work needs of his profession, and he will naturally have corresponding experience in his account, and it seems to be quite a lot.

After all, mandrills are a relatively difficult target for Yu Ke to hunt at this stage.

New characteristics have been created.

As his mind turned, information about the new characteristics quickly emerged in Yu Ke's mind.

[Heart of the Wilderness]: The ranger's physical fitness is improved in all aspects, and his awareness of the surrounding environment is increased. When in the wilderness, he can recover from injuries by absorbing natural energy.

Combat traits!

Sitting up from among the fallen leaves on the ground, when Yu Ke saw this special message, he felt a lot more relaxed. He couldn't help grinning at the corners of his mouth, waving his hands and cheering.

Relying on the "knowledge and knowledge" of the teaching profession, Yu Ke may be able to become a leader among forest hunters, but if he wants to survive better in this world in a period of catastrophe, he must have stronger power.

The trait of Heart of the Wild is the key to letting him break through the shackles of ordinary people!

Although Yu Ke can't yet feel the extent to which the new traits have improved his physical fitness, he can already clearly feel the natural energy around him pouring into his body in the wilderness.

Every minute and every second, the soreness and fatigue on the physical level are gradually relieved or even dissipated.

This passive special effect, which is close to breathing and restoring blood, is enough to make Yu Ke prosperous in the Jinghu Forest in the future!

But this place is obviously not a place to relax and celebrate.

After taking a short rest on the spot, Yu Ke quickly tidied up the scene in order to prevent the sound of gunfire and bloody smell from attracting more monsters. He first gathered his weapons, picked wild fruits, and then used his newly acquired strength to carry the mandrill.

The reason why the mandrill was included in the hunting list by the Forestry Protection Bureau is not just its ferocity.

As long as this mutated beast is handled properly, it is almost full of treasures and can quickly bulge Yu Ke's shriveled wallet.
