Ling Cage: Many Children, Many Blessings - I Became the Head of Dawn

The snake-dog tilted its head in surprise. It had clearly sensed that the corpse on the ground had a life essence, so how could it suddenly be gone?

But it was soon attracted by the fresh and delicious humans.

Mark realized what was happening and yelled, "Retreat!"

The snake-dog roared and charged straight at the crowd.

The hunters retreated while firing their guns.

However, the bullets bounced off the snake-dog.

The snake-dog leaped up and jumped in front of a hunter, biting him into its mouth with its gaping maw and throwing him away with all its might.

The hunter lost consciousness before he could even scream.

Mark stopped and said in a deep voice, "You guys retreat first, I'll hold it off!"

Ran Bing decisively followed.

Qin Song also stopped and said to Penny, "You go first."

Penny knew this wasn't the time to be reckless, so she followed the main group and retreated.

Just like in the original series, Mark and Ran Bing were almost powerless against the snake-dog attack.

Qin Song stood not far away and observed carefully.

The Devouring Beast is difficult to kill; even if its head is cut off, it will slowly regenerate. Its weakness lies in the Spirit Seed within its body.

The Spirit Seed is a place to store life energy, which Qin Song guessed was similar to the human's sea of ​​consciousness.

However, the location of each Devouring Beast Spirit Seed is different.

After a moment's thought, he activated the Return to Origin state.

The current level of the Return to Origin state is only at the initial stage, and it will become ineffective if there is too much strenuous exercise or emotional fluctuations.

The next second, Qin Song could vaguely see streaks of light flashing on the surface of the Devouring Beast's body, eventually converging at a certain point in its abdomen.

It's most likely a Spirit Seed.

However, that guy was tough and thick-skinned, and Qin Song couldn't see through him completely.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qin Song unleashed the Holy Light Judgment skill, striking the snake-dog in the abdomen.

The snake-dog let out a miserable howl as its abdomen instantly ripped open.

However, it did not fall down; instead, it bent down to prevent its abdomen from being exposed.

A glint flashed in Qin Song's eyes; he had guessed correctly.

He then shook his head. No wonder the hunters didn't know about the existence of the Spirit Seed.

To hit the Spirit Seed, you need to use heavy firepower.

The Devouring Beasts always appear in groups, and even if a hunter manages to kill one, they don't have time to study it properly; they're all busy running away.

At that moment, Ran Bing was caught off guard and was whipped away by the snake dog's tail, crashing hard into the wall.

She groaned, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.

The snake-dog stretched out its retractable head and bit down hard on Ran Bing.

"Ran Bing!" Mark cried out anxiously, rushing forward without hesitation.

"It's over!" Ran Bing raised her hand and closed her eyes tightly.

However, the expected excruciating pain did not occur.

She slowly opened her eyes.

A golden light enveloped her, and the Devouring Beast opened its mouth wide and bit her fiercely, making a crunching sound.

The golden light remained motionless, which startled her.

"Aren't you going to run?" Qin Song shouted, his face full of speechlessness.

When watching the animation, I felt that these hunters were indecisive and liked to freeze up in critical moments.

Ran Bing turned her head and saw Qin Song pointing the huge scepter at her.

She reacted instantly, rolling away from the snake-dog's attack range.

Mark had already arrived and was frantically pulling the trigger.

Qin Song reminded him, "Strike the tentacles."

The tentacles are the sensory organs of the snake-dog; if they are broken, its fighting ability will be greatly reduced.

Mark immediately adjusted the firing angle.

The snake-dog's whiskers snapped off instantly, and its movements indeed became sluggish.

Qin Song was wondering whether to take out the Reinforced Body when he suddenly heard a series of running sounds coming from the top of the passage. The snake-dog army had arrived.

He immediately dismissed the idea and told Mark and the other man to run outside.

After bursting out of the spaceship, Mark roared, "All personnel, prepare for battle! Shift to heavy 3D!"

The pack of snakes and dogs followed closely behind, and both the commoners and the hunters retreated in terror.

However, how can two legs outrun six legs?

Snakes and dogs are like tigers among sheep, devouring them one by one.

Almost instantly, the crowd was scattered, and the scene descended into chaos.

A commoner was pounced on by a snake-dog and was about to die in the beast's jaws when suddenly, a dark shadow descended from the sky.

The snake-dog's head snapped off instantly.

Mark, wielding a giant chainsaw, appeared as if a divine warrior had descended from the heavens.

"Why don't you run?"

The man scrambled and crawled toward the car.

Mark looked around and saw Qin Song walking towards him slowly, holding a scepter.

He was about to rebuke when suddenly his body trembled.

Surprisingly, the snake-dog didn't attack Qin Song; instead, it bypassed him and charged towards the others.

Before he could investigate further, the hunter's screams startled him awake, and he immediately rushed to his rescue.

Qin Song approached the headless snake-dog, a compassionate expression on his face, and said, "May the Holy Light be with you!"

Immediately afterwards, the system notified me that I had gained 100 points of wish power.

Good heavens! There's really no need to shatter the Spirit Seed.

He looked at the snake-dogs, heavily wounded by the hunters, and the corpses of the dead humans, his eyes flashing with the symbol of gold coins.

They are all the source of life!

Chapter 11 Harvesting Life Essence

A bizarre scene unfolded at the scene.

While everyone else was either fleeing for their lives or fighting, Qin Song strolled leisurely across the battlefield, ignoring the Devouring Beasts around him.

Due to the chaos of the battlefield and the terrain, no one noticed Qin Song's unusual behavior for a time.

A snake-dog pounced on Erica's heavy body, repeatedly waving its hands and slamming them against the metal surface.

Erica struggled desperately, but the fallen giant had no means of escape and could only keep resisting with his hands.

Just then, there was a loud bang.

A huge stick struck the snake-dog on the head, instantly making it dizzy and disoriented. The snake-dog turned its head and let out an angry roar at the attacker.

But the next second, a beam of light pierced through the snake-dog's massive jaws and pierced its head.

Erica seized the opportunity to escape, and when she looked up, she saw Qin Song holding a scepter, chanting incantations over the snake-dog corpse.

"Did you save me?" Erica was filled with questions.

How could a human possibly kill a Devouring Beast?

Qin Song put away his blessing spell and said with a smile, "Say thank you."

"Uh, thank you..." Erica snapped out of her daze and hurriedly said, "It's dangerous here, you should run for your life!"

After saying that, she grabbed a heavy machine gun from the side and charged at another snake dog.

Qin Song jumped onto the boulder and looked around. Mark was holding a chainsaw, taking down one kid with each cut.

It may seem like a simple slash, but if the snake-dog's spirit seed isn't shattered, the snake-dog will quickly revive.

He immediately quickened his pace and ran towards the snake and dog carcass.

More than ten minutes later, Mark looked at the convoy and yelled, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Even with his amazing stamina, he was exhausted at this moment.

Mo Cheng's voice came through the headset: "A car is stuck in a sand pit, blocking the road!"

Mark cursed under his breath, but had no choice but to grit his teeth and bear it.

Qin Song was extremely busy.

The system notifications kept ringing in his ears, and he had only one word in his mind: awesome!

"Alright, alright! The road is open! Let's get out of here!" cheers erupted from the convoy.

Qin Song ran towards the convoy, still somewhat unsatisfied.

If he didn't leave soon, the hunters would definitely abandon him.

As he passed a 3D stereo, he lightly leaped and sat on top of it.

"Huh?! What is that?" A clear, childlike voice came from the super-sounding system.

Erica can recognize a person by their voice.

Just as Erica was about to reach out and slap him, Qin Song immediately said, "It's me, Qin Song."

"Ugh! Why are you riding on my head? Get off me!"

Qin Song chuckled and said, "Hitching a ride won't cost me anything."

Erica grumbled a couple of times, somewhat dissatisfied, but still didn't kick him out.

The mechs switched to driving mode, wheels popped out from under their feet, and sped away into the distance.

Qin Song turned his head to look at the scattered snake and dog carcasses, and clicked his tongue in regret.

The snakes and dogs he absorbed were slowly turning into blood and merging into the earth.

This trip yielded a total of over 3900 Life Essence, plus 100 points absorbed from the Archives Manager, which can be exchanged for 40 attribute points.

What should I add?

Just as he was pondering, a deafening roar came, followed by the collapse of the distant ruins and high-rise buildings.

A monster, thirty or forty meters tall, charged at them, each step covering more than ten meters.

Qin Song's expression hardened.

The mutated Devourer Beast, the Giant Toothed Beast!

Even an armored vehicle looks like an ant compared to it.

Its back was covered with dense bone spurs, a huge lump of flesh hung from its chest, and a skull grew from its upper jaw. The skull's pale eyes stared straight ahead, which was extremely creepy.

This creature has two mouths, hence its name, the Dipladenia.

In just a few seconds, the big guy was already on top of the convoy.

Looking at the colossal vehicle that blotted out the sky, Qin Song almost wanted to put all his attribute points into agility and jump off to escape.

Fortunately, Erica's driving skills were good enough, and she managed to escape from under the boulders and the beast's claws.

The giant-toothed, double-jawed beast opened its massive jaws and let out a deafening roar.

The air began to distort at the roar.
