Chapter 6 (2/2)
The green figure fell to the ground with a plop. Now, Qin Feng could go take a closer look.
The creature was half the size of a human and looked very much like a frog blown out of proportion.
Its hind legs were well-developed enough, an indication that it could probably walk upright. Behold, the notorious killer of Qinghe bay’s reed marsh—the frogman.
As it was announced on the bus earlier on, this creature was mentioned in the bounty list.
Qin Feng walked up to it, carefully carving out the frogman’s eye with the dagger.
Although frogmen flesh tasted pretty good, Qin Feng had other stuff that needed his attention. He could not afford to be lugging around something so bulky. Also, the frogman’s blood would serve as bait for other dangerous creatures lurking in the tall shadows.
As he placed the eyeball into a sealed jar, he could feel himself absorbing the frogman’s energy, strengthening his physical body bit by bit.
4“This is faster than it was in my previous life! Is this it’s full ability? Maybe. Maybe there are stronger ones which I have yet unearth!”
Qin Feng could feel the difference, his bountiful upgrades in strength got him excited.
He trounced forward as the reeds got thicker. The croaks were now loud, almost deafening, where a cacophony of staccato howls reached out from the dark.
1Croak! Croak! Croak!
Qin Feng stood still and fired.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two arrows shot through the gaps between the giant stalks and hit two frogmen who unceremoniously tangled themselves in the reeds.
5Summer was nigh, and so was mating season for the frogman. If they were not cleared at this time, once the love rush was over, their numbers would increase exponentially. They would then have to leave their nest and spread out, an unthinkable threat to the colony!
Unsurprisingly, these severe consequences to its safety were also mentioned on the bus.
Qin Feng walked up to his kills and, again, unconsciously absorbed the energy from the frogmen. He could feel enormous strength coursing through every vein, pulsating his every muscle.
It was a lovely feeling, one that Qin Feng had not experienced for so many years. Far too long it was.
5After all, back at that time, he had not advanced for a long time.
After he had received the awakening injection, he became an ability user. But the energy he absorbed was directed towards strengthening his body, so the might he displayed was actually little his own but that of an Ancient Warrior.
If he were to be measured by current assessments, Qin Feng was definitely a G1-tier Ancient Warrior!
After he gouged the eyeballs out, Qin Feng continued to march forward, steady and determined.
Three hours later and he’d already made his way through the slushy reed marshes where the unmistakable, low rumble of rushing waters came to ear.
This was it. This was the real Qinghe bay, real but just as dangerous.
Man-eating fishes infested the waters, and the ever-present threat of a crocodile beast made this a forbidden area.
Owing to that, the Chengbei colony was unaware that there was a hidden anti-human organization, which also doubled as Z Organization’s underground lab.
Qin Feng had not come here for revenge. In his current shape, he needed to build himself up above all else.
No, he chose to come here because he believed there was help.
Qin Feng strapped on his oxygen tank and goggles, which he had bought at the store earlier.
Splosh!!!
Qin Feng jumped into the frigid water.
