Chapter 609: The Ace Is Me!

(TN: Yun Xi means: Hope born in the clouds.)

.

An off-road vehicle drove along the winding mountain road all the way to the top of the mountain.

Yun Xi found an open place to park the car, opened the large bag of sniper equipment, and quickly assembled a powerful sniper rifle.

The Yellow Dog was lying on the passenger seat with a puzzled expression on his face.

He didn’t seem to know what Yun Xi was doing at all.

Yun Xi glanced at him and sighed. "Young Master, be good. When I finish my task, I will buy you sausages to eat."

She walked to the edge of the cliff with the gun and began to measure the wind speed and distance.

Lines of small burning words appeared in the void in the corner of her eyes.

[Task: Liberation.]

[Liberating those wild beasts who have fallen into madness is your first task as the chosen one.]

[Task requirement: Kill ten crazy wild beasts.]

[Task reward: Basic Fighting Skills.]

Yun Xi gritted her teeth, set up the big gun, and began to calibrate and load bullets.

Only then did the Yellow Dog look at her with interest through the car window.

This young girl actually practiced firearms, and she was quite outstanding in this aspect. This was really unexpected.

According to her, she had gotten A’s in literature and martial arts. If it hadn’t been for her family’s misfortune, she would have continued her studies.

He had been worried that this task would be too difficult, but now it seemed that it was just right.

The Yellow Dog narrowed his eyes and waited quietly.

This place was close to the forest. After the news of the animal mutation came out, very few people came here.

He just hoped that everything would go well.

The mountain breeze blew.

A muffled gunshot suddenly rang out, reverberating through the mountains.

A line of small words appeared in front of Yun Xi’s eyes.

[1/10.]

At the same time, a line of small words appeared in front of the Young Dog in the car. [1/10.]

The Young Dog frowned and stretched out his paw and moved it casually.

A new line of small words suddenly appeared in front of Yun Xi’s eyes.

[Battle reminder: Missing silencer (not equipped).]

Yun Xi suddenly said, "Oh, no, I should have thought of this. Such a big movement definitely wouldn’t work. It would attract danger."

She quickly found the silencer from the equipment bag and put it on.

After doing this, she took out the binoculars and continued to look for the next target.

The Yellow Dog nodded slightly with satisfaction.

He glanced at Yun Xi and saw that she was concentrating on looking for prey.

The Young Dog jumped out of the passenger seat, leaned against the closed door, clasped his paws together, and made a gesture.

Nine Serenities· Life Reaping!

An invisible wave spread out from the dog’s paw, quickly traversing a distance of nearly a thousand meters, and landed on the corpse of the mutated wild fox.

Strands of Life Power emerged from the wild fox’s carcass and flew across the sky in a formless state before landing in the off-road vehicle.

The yellow dog quickly absorbed the life force, revealing its uneven canine teeth as it smiled faintly.

Not bad, it was progressing smoothly.

Come on!

While it was thinking, it heard another muffled sound from outside.

A line of words immediately popped up.

[2/10.]

Good timing!

The Yellow Dog made another hand seal.

Next, Yun Xi seemed to have entered the zone. She fired eight shots in a row, and all of them hit the target.

The yellow dog had also absorbed enough life force and it growled in a low voice.

Nine Serenities cultivation method was to improve himself through killing, not through cultivation.

That was why it was fast.

Back then, it was precisely because it was fast that it broke the balance of the cultivation world ...

Forget it. It’s all in the past. What’s the point of thinking about it?

The yellow dog sensed the changes in his body. He turned his gaze and saw Yun Xi standing up outside and beginning to dismantle the gun.

The mission was completed!

It was time to get the reward!

As Yun Xi packed up her things, she glanced at the empty space from time to time.

The reward for the mission was basic fighting skills.

But she didn’t know what the difference was from the fighting skills she had learned in school.

She thought silently.

In the off-road vehicle, the dog was also hesitating.

— — What should I teach her?

Boom!

Suddenly, there was an explosion in the forest not far away.

Yun Xi took out her binoculars and glanced at it. Suddenly, she rushed toward the off-road vehicle.

"Hurry, Young Master, someone is injured in the forest. We have to save them!"

She threw her things on the back seat, got into the driver’s seat, and immediately started the car.

The yellow dog’s eyes narrowed, and he was speechless.

— — Did she really think that she was a Chosen?

She had only received a novice gift bag, which was full of gold. It was definitely enough to buy a car and a gun, but when it came to fighting in person, it was still far from enough.

The car began to speed.

Fortunately, the distance wasn’t far. The off-road vehicle drove halfway from the top of the mountain, turned onto a fork in the road, and immediately approached that direction.

Suddenly.

The car suddenly braked.

The yellow dog looked out of the windshield.

He saw a mutant black bear that was four or five meters tall holding a corpse in its hand and eating it with relish.

Not far away, on the other side.

Several soldiers were protecting a mother and daughter, and the guns in their hands were shooting bullets.

Unfortunately, the bullets had no effect on the black bear.

The yellow dog was a little surprised.

This black bear’s degree of mutation was already very high, and its body had already formed a natural demonic power.

However, these mortals couldn’t see it.

The soldiers couldn’t deal with such a black bear at all.

The yellow dog glanced at Yun Xi.

He saw that she couldn’t help but tremble, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying.

The soldiers also saw Yun Xi.

"Run! Run! "

The soldiers’ eyes were desperate, but they shouted loudly.

This girl was alone and unarmed, so she couldn’t help at all.

If she didn’t run, she would also die here.

Yun Xi’s eyes moved and fell on the mother and daughter. She looked at the little girl who was so scared that she was about to faint.

Yun Xi pressed her hand on the steering stick, gently shifted the car to reverse gear, and then abruptly shifted it back.

"No! NO!! "

She gritted her teeth, stopped the car, and quickly searched for the sniper rifle.

The yellow dog’s eyelids drooped.

She was too naive.

Even that sniper rifle couldn’t deal with a mutant creature of that level.

But this kind of naivety ...

It was rare.

Thinking about it carefully, if she hadn’t had such a temperament, she wouldn’t have stopped in front of a stray dog and shared half of her food with the stray dog.

If she hadn’t made such a choice ...

The Six Paths of Reincarnation wouldn’t have chosen her as a representative and a bridge.

Bang!

In the mountains, a muffled sniper rifle shot sounded.

The black bear burst into an angry roar, temporarily gave up on the soldiers, and looked toward Yun Xi.

Yun Xi said absentmindedly, "It’s not injured ..."

She hurriedly steered the car backward.

"I’ll distract it. You guys run!"

She shouted.

Those people were stunned.

The leader of the soldiers smiled bitterly and said, "It’s useless, girl."

Yes.

The car couldn’t lose it at such a short distance, and it couldn’t even get rid of an ordinary black bear, let alone a mutant one.

Not only could the car not escape, but everyone couldn’t escape.

Yun Xi also saw that something was wrong.

At this time, the black bear was already running toward her.

Yun Xi reached out and touched the yellow dog’s head and whispered, "Run."

She kicked open the car door, fired another shot at the black bear, turned around, and ran.

Although the black bear wasn’t injured, being shot by the sniper rifle gave it a headache, and it became even angrier.

It temporarily gave up all other targets and chased after Yun Xi.

On the other side, the little girl in her mother’s arms said anxiously, "That sister is going to die. Save her!"

The soldiers around them smiled bitterly and shook their heads.

No one could run away.

No one could run away.

The black bear swept past the off-road vehicle. Its incomparably fast speed and huge body caused the entire vehicle to shake.

It was greatly shortening the distance between itself and its prey.

Bang!

Another bullet!

The black bear stopped after being shot, and it suddenly went completely berserk.

Yun Xi calmly reloaded the gun and retreated.

Even if she died, she would die in battle.

The yellow dog’s eyes narrowed.

Not bad.

This girl really had a good temperament.

If he had met her a few years ago, he would have accepted her as a descendant of a devil.

But now it was a bit troublesome.

Taking out the things that he had learned and picking out some that were suitable for her to pass on to her was a truly arduous task.

For example, just now.

Just now, when she was fighting ...

He had thought for a full five seconds before he had finished compiling a set of martial arts that was suitable for her.

It really wasn’t easy.

The dog jumped onto the passenger seat and gently scratched the air with his paws.

Lines of small burning words suddenly appeared in front of Yun Xi’s eyes.

[You have killed 10 mutant beasts.]

[The initial task has been completed.]

[Your personal strength has been upgraded by one level.]

[Because your performance was perfect, this evaluation has been further improved. You are rewarded with the following advanced fighting skills.]

[It is called: ’We never let those who are brave enough die in vain, so we have tailor-made this set of basic martial arts called’ The Ace is Me’]

[Teaching method: Enlightenment]

[— Enlightenment has been completed]

All the small words disappeared.

Yun Xi felt as if time had stopped.

Countless fighting skills appeared in her mind, as if they were skills that she had learned through hard work and practice.

Among them, there was a method that could immediately stimulate a person’s potential.

This method couldn’t be used casually.

But now, she needed it!!!

The next moment.

The mutant black bear rushed behind Yun Xi and raised its giant paw to hit her on the back.

In a flash ...

Yun Xi turned around and brushed past the giant paw.

She had actually dodged this extremely dangerous attack with a simple turn and a step.

This wasn’t over.

Yun Xi jumped onto Black Bear’s arm and dodged its second swipe. Her legs crisscrossed back and forth, and her figure turned into a blurry afterimage. With dreamy footsteps, she dodged the bear’s bite again, and then ...

She raised the sniper rifle high, as if it were a spear, and used all her strength to stab it into the bear’s eye.

"Go to hell."

The girl shouted at the top of her lungs and pulled the trigger fiercely.

Bang!

Another muffled gunshot rang out.

The bullet directly penetrated the bear’s eye and blew up its head.

A fatal attack!

The bear’s whole body shook, and it staggered and fell to the ground, causing the whole ground to shake.

The girl landed, rolled over very skillfully to reduce the impact, and pulled the big sniper rifle out of the bear’s eye socket.

She gasped for breath and trembled all over, as if she was still in shock, and as if she couldn’t understand what she had just done.

There was silence all around.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw.

At this time, only one existence didn’t pay attention to her.

Dog ...

The dog was hiding in the passenger seat of the off-road vehicle. While absorbing the black bear’s life force, he stretched out his paw and scratched lightly in the void.

The next moment.

In the void in front of the girl, the corresponding small burning words suddenly appeared:

[Well done]

[From today onwards, you are qualified to protect others]
