Gao Wu: If this BOSS isn't nerfed, is it even playable?

Chapter 72 Abandoned City PLUS
As Lin Ye's character became fully solidified.

He also gained all five senses.

The fishy smell of rust corroded by rainwater, the dusty smell of concrete fragments, and...

A faint, lingering stench and putridity, unique to various mutated beasts, drifted from the depths of the city's shadows.

As far as the eye can see, there are only ruins and broken walls.

This is no longer just a simple sense of déjà vu.

He truly felt like he was home.

Despite the turmoil in his heart, Lin Ye remained as cautious as ever.

He didn't rush into action, keeping his body low, like a shadow, completely blending into the deathly silence of the ruins, moving quickly and silently along the edge of the rooftop.

Lin Ye's primary goal was observation.

Observe the terrain of this area, and observe the distribution and types of monsters.

This is the experience Lin Ye has gained from so many nights in the abandoned city.

Soon, his gaze settled on a corner of the street below.

There, a thin, mottled mutant dog was gnawing on something.

Its movements were filled with nervous alertness, and it would raise its head from time to time, scanning its surroundings with its eyes.

In Lin Ye's line of sight, the level information also appeared above the head of this mutated dog.

【LV.9】

The monsters were of similar level to those he had encountered on the outer edge of the ruined city.

Lin Ye did not choose to attack from a distance.

He silently slid down the exposed steel bars and broken walls on the outside of the building to the floors below.

During the entire process, not a single unnecessary sound was made.

The mutated dog continued to tear at its prey, completely unaware of its impending death.

The moment Lin Ye emerged from the shadows behind it, it suddenly realized what was happening and let out a threatening growl.

But, it's too late.

puff!
Lin Ye's figure took a step forward like a ghost. The standard-issue long spear in his hand was without any fancy moves. With the most concise and efficient speed, it accurately pierced through the mutated dog's eye socket and went straight to the back of its head!
The whole movement is smooth and smooth, done in one go.

The mutated dog's body stiffened abruptly, its growl stopped abruptly, and its life force was instantly drained away.

Just one second before it dissipated as a data stream.

A cold notification sound rang in Lin Ye's mind.

You have killed a LV.9 mutated dog.

[Due to the influence of the "Five Qi Guiding Techniques," the experience multiplier is set at 150%, and you have gained 24 experience points!]

Lin Ye's eyes lit up instantly!

Give me some experience?
And it's full experience points!
This discovery made him feel his heart beating faster.

In reality, when you kill monsters, the source of experience points is the system absorbing the monster's life energy or soul.

In this virtual world made entirely of data, where do experience points come from?

Or perhaps my guess was completely wrong; there was never any concept of absorbing energy or souls.

The system simply made him stronger by increasing his combat experience.

Lin Ye couldn't understand it.

He didn't pay too much attention to it.

If God closes a city to you in one day, He will open another one for you in the blink of an eye, perhaps even one with better features?

A long-lost, almost thrilling sense of excitement surged from my spine all the way to the top of my head.

This is a virtual space.

In the real world, he only has one life, and he must tread carefully and plan every step with utmost caution.

But here...

Although the rules state that death equals elimination, one will ultimately not actually die.

He could completely abandon his deepest concerns in reality and treat this place as a leveling paradise with unlimited freedom!
The only thing that made him slightly regretful was that killing monsters here did not trigger the passive effect of [Soul Furnace].

He couldn't permanently increase his maximum health by consuming souls, as he could in the abandoned city in reality.

However, its merits outweigh its flaws!

Lin Ye didn't have time to be overjoyed by this discovery; instead, a strong sense of grief and indignation welled up in his heart.

Why did this match only last three days?

If he had more time, Lin Ye even wanted to stay here until he killed every single one of the mutated beasts!
Before he could grieve, Lin Ye's ears twitched slightly. He immediately lowered his body and shrank back behind the nearby building rubble. There was movement.

It wasn't the chaotic, disordered footsteps of a mutated beast.

It was the sound of hurried, frantic footsteps, accompanied by heavy breathing.

Lin Ye even caught a whiff of... a foul odor carried on the wind.

He held his breath and peered out through a crack in the bunker wall.

In his field of vision, a young martial artist of similar age, wearing a combat uniform from another martial arts high school in Dongjiang, was scrambling and crawling as he ran for his life.

His face was filled with fear.

Above his head, the rank insignia 【LV.12】 was clearly visible.

Behind him, a massive, LV.9 mutated wild boar with protruding tusks was relentlessly pursuing him with heavy steps.

On the young martial artist's right leg was a deep, bone-revealing wound, dripping with blood, clearly caused by being pierced by the wild boar's tusks in their previous encounter.

A question mark appeared above Lin Ye's head.

What Lin Ye found even more absurd was that the path the person had run through left a trail of wet marks.

He was so scared that he peed.

Lin Ye didn't understand, but was deeply shocked.

A level 12 martial artist was ambushed by a mutated wild boar three levels lower. His only reaction was to be terrified and run for his life.

They had no intention of retaliating at all.

These so-called geniuses are actually so weak in actual combat?

The next moment, Lin Ye's pupils contracted slightly.

He saw three dark figures emerge from another intersection on the street, drawn by the strong smell of blood.

Those were three mutated hunting dogs with an extremely keen sense of smell, all at level 10.

They swarmed forward, instantly blocking the young martial artist's only escape route.

Hunting dogs in front, wild boars behind.

Desperate situation.

The young martial artist let out a desperate scream, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground.

The following scenes were bloody and brutal.

The mutated wild boar let out an excited roar, its massive body charging forward like a tank, slamming into the man's chest.

The crisp sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.

The three hounds pounced on them like hungry wolves.

One of them bit his throat precisely in one bite.

The other one was even more ferocious, biting directly at the wound on the inside of his thigh.

The last one even violently tore open his pants and ripped open his anus, spilling his intestines and internal organs all over the floor.

The screams lasted for less than two seconds before being drowned out by the monster's excited chewing and tearing sounds.

Lin Ye watched all of this with a blank expression.

He saw a faint stream of light rise from the gradually decaying corpse, shoot into the sky, and disappear.

That must be this person's consciousness.

But his body remained where it was, becoming food for the monsters to fight over.

Lin Ye's gaze shifted from the mutilated corpse, his expression unwavering.

Only after he was sure there were no more lurking spying people around did he slowly step out from the shadows of the building.

The LV.9 mutated wild boar was excitedly nudging the carcass with its tusks, making satisfied grunts.

The other three LV.10 mutated hounds were tearing at each other's intestines, growling at each other as they fought over the delicious entrails.

Lin Ye's footsteps were silent, like fallen leaves floating on the water.

The four mutated beasts were so engrossed in the feast of flesh and blood that they were completely unaware that a human had already appeared behind them.

It wasn't until Lin Ye got within three meters that the mutated beasts seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around!

What it saw was a black gunshot moving at incredible speed.

puff!

The spear struck first, piercing the hound's open mouth with precision and exiting through the back of its neck, pinning it firmly to the ground!

The other two hounds and the wild boar were startled at the same time, and they all let out a furious roar and turned to pounce!
　That's all for today, and tomorrow will also be another three-watch night!
