All Heavens: Starting with the Predator, I'm No Longer Human

"We've triggered a trap set by a dead person..."

The group regrouped in front of a corpse with its chest ripped out and eyes wide open.

None of them expected that the person who set up the trap that had left them in such a sorry state was already dead.

"Judging from the degree of decomposition of the body, he had been dead for more than two weeks."

The doctors in the team quickly made a judgment.

"He's in a good position," the burly anti-terrorism soldier in the team analyzed. "He can fire in all directions from here, observe the enemies around him, and there are traps set up around him to block his way."

The burly bear man gestured, "This is all the means he can use; he's making a last-ditch effort."

He didn't say what he was rebelling against.

Everyone seemed to be deep in thought.

The strong man fits the stereotypical image of the Russian counter-terrorism force: he is very robust and can keep up with the team in the rainforest even while carrying a Gatling gun.

He was also carrying a backpack filled with bullets on his back.

He carefully searched the body and pulled a diary out of the pocket.

"Amelica Special Forces".

The burly bear-like man opened his diary and said, "It's strange. He should have been deployed in Afghanistan."

"Then why is he here, and why has he set up so many traps, waiting for us to walk in?"

The tattooed man sat on the ground and raised his question.

"These aren't aimed at us," Ross said in a low voice, clearly having thought of something. "He's hunting for something else."

"Some bigger prey."

Ni Ge took over the conversation, his eyes still scanning his surroundings.

"Bigger?"

The doctor scoffed, clearly somewhat disbelieving.

"The tree trunk is a trap. The estimation method plus the trap means you set the target prey to weigh five times more."

Ross explained using technical terms.

"No matter what it is, once you enter the trap and trigger the tripwire, it will go off in an instant."

After hearing the explanation, although everyone still had questions, they didn't ask them.

Let's go!

Ross greeted him.

There's no point in staying here any longer.

Since we can't figure out what the trap setter is hunting, we might as well stick to the original plan and find a high vantage point.

But Mud Bro, who was in the group, stood still while everyone else was walking forward.

His eyes were filled with fear and his expression was tense as he stared at the empty tree trunk in the distance, as if there was something there that terrified him.

His dark face began to glow, shining brightly in the sunlight, and beads of sweat kept sliding down his eyes as his body trembled.

His sixth sense told him that a predator, which he could not see, was lurking in the tree trunk.

He didn't dare to move, and as time passed, his knuckles gripping the gun began to turn white.

Bertha, who was walking at the back, noticed his strange behavior and looked in the direction he was staring at, but found nothing.

"What did you discover?"

Nigo was startled awake by the sudden sound and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was Bertha.

He didn't answer immediately. He glanced at the woman beside him, then looked back at the tree trunk.

He said calmly, "It's nothing!"

He finished speaking without waiting for Bertha to ask any further questions.

They chased after the group.

Bertha had her doubts, but after scanning her surroundings and finding nothing, she decided to ignore it...

After the group had gone some distance, a slight noise came from the tree trunk that Muddy and Bertha had been watching.

But to the naked eye, there was nothing there.

Such a bizarre scene would be unimaginable if the group that had just passed by knew about it.

This could cause them, who were already like frightened birds, to panic instantly...

"Chu, shouldn't we make a move? Right now, there's only one Dark Ironblood guarding their prey. If we make a move, we can catch them off guard."

Moreover, by eliminating it, we have one less opponent, which may be more advantageous for the upcoming hunt.

Reina looked at the Dark Ironblood on the tree trunk ahead, whose equipment and clothing were full of ancient style, and whose mouth was fitted with two slender teeth below the mask, and said eagerly.

Dark Ironblood's entire set of equipment consists of old-fashioned gear, and not even all of it.

In Rena's eyes, apart from the plasma shoulder cannon on his shoulder, the other equipment posed no threat.

As the elder's granddaughter, she enjoyed the benefits of the tribe and the passionate love of the tribe's young men, but naturally lost other things.

For example, freedom.

This was evident from the fact that she was assigned as a medical staff member and accompanied the elders' spaceship for many years.

But Rena herself didn't like this kind of life. Predators are born with the blood of battle flowing in their veins, and they are born to hunt.

She, Reina, was no exception.

He has always longed to hunt alone and confront various powerful prey.

Aside from participating in a hunt during her coming-of-age ceremony, she has never experienced pure hunting again.

Moreover, since the three Ironbloods participated in her coming-of-age ceremony together, she received preferential treatment and didn't feel fully satisfied in the battle.

"No rush! It's not the right time yet. Let's observe first."

The Chu Ci song stopped the impatient Reina.

Now that they are teammates and have been assigned a mission, he also learned about Reina's identity from her.

Chu Cige guessed the elder's intention in arranging Reina as his teammate: it was both to allow the two to get to know each other and develop a relationship, and also to have him mentor Reina.

How to become a qualified Predator.

Reina: "Why?"

"Do you know what the most important quality is for a hunter, Reina?"

Chu Ci Ge asked in return.

Reina: "What? Strength, skill, a powerful physique, or the desire to hunt?"

"patience!"

Reina's incredulous tone came through the voice communication: "Patience is the most important thing?"

Chu Cige didn't know what the other Ironbloods thought, but in his understanding, "personal strength and hunting skills are important, but they are not the most important qualities."

For a hunter operating in the shadows, these are basic requirements, but patience is not the best quality that every hunter possesses.

"Just like we are doing now, patiently follow behind and wait for it to become impatient and start hunting, and then it will reveal its weakness."

And that will be the best time for us to make our move…

Although Chu Cige himself was only a mediocre hunter and certainly couldn't compare to the hunting masters in the tribe, the various short videos he watched before his transmigration weren't for nothing.

The most obvious sign of the hunters in those short videos before they finally catch their prey is their patience; some of them can lie in one place for an entire day.

It's all about waiting for the prey to enter the attack range.

Thus, a single blow could kill.

Although he himself had never actually hunted prey many times, his theoretical knowledge of Chu Ci was still quite good.

"Okay! You're right, I'll listen to you."

After listening to him, Reina also felt that what he said made sense, and she calmed down her restless heart.

"Chu, you know so much. As expected of the iron-blooded warrior that even Grandpa praised. He even gave you the spear that he used for so long."

"You're amazing! I've never met anyone like you before. Not only are you incredibly strong in combat, but your physical attributes are also comparable to elite Ironbloods."

Even their intellect is far superior to those show-off brutes in the tribe.

Reina's voice was full of adoration; if they weren't still on a mission, she would have pounced on Chu Cige again.

"You flatter me!"

Chu Cige's mouth, hidden beneath his mask, stretched all the way to the back of his ears, and he felt a refreshing sensation that went straight to the top of his head, making him feel invigorated.

"It's not as exaggerated as you say."

If you can talk, then talk more.

I love listening to it.

"No! Chu, in my heart, you are the best Predator..."
