Chapter 152: Mutant Hippo

"Hippos don’t have great eyesight. Even after the mutation, this disadvantage probably still exists. Otherwise, from this distance, he couldn’t have missed seeing you guys hiding here!" Xiao Feng calmly analyzed.

"Furthermore, don’t be fooled by his large build. If you order an attack using thermal weapons, not only will it cause no harm, but it will also completely enrage him, making him target the attack. Then within ten seconds, this place will be wiped out!"

"You’re bluffing!" Chu Xinger looked skeptical.

"Even though he’s huge, anyone with some knowledge knows that larger mutated beasts generally have speed weaknesses. Saying this place will be leveled within ten seconds, he probably can’t even make it here in a minute!" Xiao Feng looked at Chu Xinger, seemingly clueless. "I really don’t understand what your brother was thinking, letting you lead the team!"

Xiao Feng shook his head helplessly.

"Oh? You think little of me?" Chu Xinger retorted, hands on hips, challenging Xiao Feng.

"Shut up!" Xiao Feng shouted angrily, immediately silencing Chu Xinger.

"If you don’t want to die faster, shut your mouth right now!"

Meanwhile, the hippo had already wobbled its way to a hundred meters from the defense line.

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Chu Xinger eventually suppressed her anger.

"Although hippos appear leisurely every day, if they suddenly go berserk, their speed can skyrocket to 30 kilometers per hour," Xiao Feng informed Chu Xinger.

"That fast?" Chu Xinger expressed disbelief.

"Regular hippos are like this. After mutating, a hippo can maximize its original potential, meaning this mutated one might reach speeds of hundreds of kilometers per hour!" Xiao Feng’s analysis left everyone, including Chu Xinger and the other evolved individuals around, gasping in shock.

At that speed, only speed-type evolvers or those capable of flight could likely escape.

"Moreover, the force of an animal’s bite depends on the lower jaw and teeth. A hippo’s teeth have a small surface area, meaning all the pressure from the lower jaw concentrates in a small area."

"What does that mean?" Chu Xinger asked curiously.

"It means that once bitten by a hippo, it could lead directly to death!"

"Is it that terrifying?" Xiao Feng’s words instilled a sense of fear in everyone facing the mutated hippo.

"Remember, no one is to act without my order!" Xiao Feng stared ahead, warning everyone.

"Who are you to command? I’m the team leader!" Chu Xinger immediately retorted.

Xiao Feng, however, disregarded the comments and activated his psychic power, flying directly into the sky.

"This guy can actually fly!" Chu Xinger’s eyebrows raised in surprise.

"But he doesn’t have wings, how is he flying?"

"Maybe it’s some kind of invisible energy!" the deputy speculated nearby.

After taking flight, Xiao Feng flew past the mutated hippo and positioned himself behind it.

"We must find a way to draw the hippo over here!" Xiao Feng thought and took out a handgun.

This particular handgun was extraordinarily unique, transparent and crystalline in appearance, embedded with a gemstone in the center.

It was the charged annihilation gun Xiao Feng had acquired the previous night.

Charged Annihilation Gun: Man-Battle

Attributes: Penetration +500%

Usage: Depending on the time of charge, it deals varying levels of destructive power.

"I wonder what kind of energy this charge requires?" Xiao Feng pondered, preparing to substitute it with his stored energy.

Channeling his energy, Xiao Feng directly enveloped the charged gun.

In the next moment, the gemstone embedded in the gun immediately absorbed the surrounding energy from the base of the gun handle.

At that moment, Xiao Feng noticed a display on the gun bolt that resembled a phone battery indicator.

He estimated that around a thousand units of energy had just been absorbed, enough to charge one segment.

He aimed the charged gun at the mutated hippo and pulled the trigger.

Suddenly, the gem inside the gun emitted a dazzling light.

Whoosh!

A beam of light shot out from the handgun, hitting the mutated hippo directly.

"Roar!"

Instantly, the mutated hippo let out a fierce, agonized cry.

Looking closely, the area hit by Xiao Feng showed a burnt wound, emitting a white smoke.

The hippo had thick and resilient skin, impervious even to rockets.

However, this single unit of energy pierced through the hippo’s skin.

The pain made the hippo turn and start running rapidly, resembling a speeding tank.

Witnessing the hippo changing direction, all the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.

But Chu Xinger’s heart raced nervously.

"You rascal, fly quickly! Be careful not to get crashed into!" Chu Xinger anxiously screamed in her mind.

And at that moment, everyone witnessed Xiao Feng flying steadily at low altitude towards the downtown area.

"Chu Xinger, immediately instruct everyone to go to Trap No. 1. I will lure the mutated hippo there. Whether you can kill it or not will depend on this opportunity!"

Xiao Feng didn’t act directly; instead, he offered this chance to Shelter No. 1.

In these past few days, the people from Shelter No. 1 hadn’t had a chance to take action. Others didn’t even understand their capabilities.

If they could kill the mutated hippo this time, Shelter No. 1 would certainly gain recognition from the Qingyun Base. The strength of Shelter No. 1 would quickly become known.

One of the reasons for their considerable strength was the food they possessed, capable of enhancing various attributes. Xiao Feng didn’t need to promote these; they would naturally become known.

Behind him, the mutated hippo accelerated, its gaping mouth just half a meter away from Xiao Feng.

Shaken, Xiao Feng gathered his focus, fully concentrating.

Soon enough, Trap No. 1 appeared not far away.

To allow Chu Xinger and the others to prepare, Xiao Feng deliberately circled before leading the mutated hippo over.

By this time, Chu Xinger and the rest were already ready.

The massive Trap No. 1 had been concealed.

From a distance, the surface looked no different from a regular road.

Observing this, Xiao Feng once again brought out the charged gun and recharged it with three thousand units of energy. However, despite reaching three thousand units, it still displayed only one segment. So, he continued adding until it reached five thousand, turning it into two segments.

Bang!

The beam shot out, hitting the mutated hippo directly, thoroughly enraging it.

But at that moment, on a high-rise far away, someone from the Qingyun Base, upon seeing Xiao Feng’s charged gun, exclaimed, "This is... the Charged Annihilation Gun!"
