"Ding! You have entered a Level 1 Abyss."
"Difficulty: Level 1."
"Is this the Abyss?"
Jiang Yuan looked up at the sky, which was dark and lightless. He then looked down at the dark, black earth beneath his feet, stomping on it; it was as hard as iron.
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, with her hands in her jacket pockets, raised her delicate face and said with some disdain, "Still the same, the air is foul and gloomy."
She turned her head and found Jiang Yuan staring at her.
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty: "Why are you looking at me?"
"We are both Martial Practitioners (One-Rank), and it's our first time entering the Abyss, but you seem very experienced, Lin, School Beauty. You couldn't possibly…" Jiang Yuan's eyes were fixed on her.
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, was startled.
Oh no, he couldn't have discovered that she was a reborn person, could he?
"Roar!"
A beast's roar in the distance made the two stop their conversation and simultaneously turn to look.
"You be careful."
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, dropped the sentence and intended to head in that direction.
But Jiang Yuan, who was beside her, was even faster. With a push of his foot, he shot towards that direction like an arrow, at an even greater speed.
After learning that a Level 1 beast was worth 1 Merit Point, which was equivalent to ten thousand yuan, he had only one thought left.
Kill!
Killing monsters could level him up, make him stronger, and earn him money. Only a fool wouldn't do it!
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, was both surprised and angry, exclaiming, "That's my prey!"
She immediately chased after him.
But Jiang Yuan's current speed exceeded a thousand, reaching 300 meters per second, close to the speed of sound. Her speed simply couldn't catch up.
"Damn it, how is this guy so fast!?"
"Right, he's an Assassin." Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, gnashed her teeth.
Wherever Jiang Yuan's figure passed, a fierce wind swept through, and the naked eye could only see a black blur rapidly moving across the land.
"Found it."
A faint golden glint flashed in Jiang Yuan's eyes as he saw a two-meter-tall wolf-shaped beast in the distance, standing on a rock and howling upwards.
"Appraise."
"Monster: Iron-Headed Wolf"
"Grade: Common."
"Level: LV4."
"Skills: Bite, Charge."
"Note: A pack-dwelling Abyss creature with a hard head, very vengeful, and skilled in group attacks."
"Whoosh!"
Jiang Yuan sprinted rapidly over the rugged, rocky terrain, covering a hundred meters in an instant.
When the wolf-shaped beast sensed danger and turned its head to look, Jiang Yuan, descending from a high altitude, had already arrived before it, his golden eyes cold, like the arrival of the God of Death.
"!"
This Iron-Headed Wolf didn't even have time to react before its hardest head was blown apart by a single punch!
"Bang!"
Blood splattered!
The HP bar above its head instantly emptied!
Instant kill!
"Ding! You have killed an Iron-Headed Wolf, gaining 40 experience points."
This LV4 Iron-Headed Wolf didn't even see the killer's appearance before it died.
By the time Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, arrived.
She happened to see the headless wolf-shaped beast sway twice before collapsing beside Jiang Yuan with a thud.
Even she, seeing this scene, couldn't help but feel a tremor in her heart.
This was too fast!!
"The experience is a bit low, and nothing dropped."
Jiang Yuan said with some disdain, taking out his record card and watching the 0 on it turn into 1, a smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
"Ten thousand yuan in the bag."
"Killing beasts is quite simple."
If any other Martial Practitioner (One-Rank) were nearby to hear Jiang Yuan say that, they would surely be depressed to death.
These Iron-Headed Wolves were not that easy to deal with; they had strong attack power, high defense, and could summon companions. Which ordinary Martial Practitioner (One-Rank) just entering the Abyss didn't work in teams, painstakingly, or even desperately, to break through their defense and kill them?
Many newcomers had even lost their lives because of them!
Who could instantly kill it with one punch to its hardest head right from the start?
"Ow!"
"Awooo!"
Wolf howls echoed from all directions.
Jiang Yuan turned his head and looked around, "What's wrong?"
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, standing on a conical giant rock not far away, said, "You think it's simple, right? Let me tell you. These beasts are called Iron-Headed Wolves, and they are pack animals. Killing one will only attract more."
Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up: "Isn't that even better?"
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty: "…"
It was the first time she had seen such a stubborn guy.
She simply sat down on the giant rock, resting her chin on one hand: "Then I'll see how many you can kill."
As her words fell, pairs of green fierce eyes lit up all around Jiang Yuan, and more than a dozen HP bars appeared above their heads.
"Crash."
Accompanied by the sound of crumbling and sliding rocks.
Massive, dark iron-colored bodies pounced towards Jiang Yuan.
"Roar!"
More than a dozen giant wolves opened their bloody mouths in the air, their fangs glinting like alloy blades, intending to tear the tiny human below into pieces!
But in Jiang Yuan's eyes, these were all experience and money!
"So much money!"
His eyes gleamed, exceptionally excited.
He casually tilted his head to avoid a giant wolf's bite.
He countered with a punch, and terrifying force surged into the giant wolf's body like a flood, causing its body to swell and then burst with a bang, scattering blood!
"Ding! You have killed an Iron-Headed Wolf, gaining +30 experience."
Another instant kill!
Another giant wolf swung its paw down, leaving three cold glints in the air.
Jiang Yuan raised his hand to block, and the claws that could tear steel only left three white marks on his arm.
He raised his leg, kneeing it.
"Bang!"
The giant wolf's chest completely caved in, blood spewed from its massive mouth, and it collapsed limply.
"Ding! You have killed an Iron-Headed Wolf, gaining +40 experience."
"Ding! Your level has increased. Current Level: LV3."
Two were dealt with instantly.
Merit Points +2, Level +1.
Before Jiang Yuan could rejoice.
A giant wolf charged, roaring and rushing forward at an extremely high speed.
The giant wolf, two meters tall, five meters long, and weighing over three tons, charged like a small truck at a hundred kilometers per hour. The terrifying impact force could smash even a house.
An ordinary Martial Practitioner (One-Rank) facing such a charge, if unable to dodge in time, would only be severely injured.
Jiang Yuan chose not to dodge. He extended his left hand and firmly pressed down on the giant wolf's charging iron head.
"Bang!"
A huge impact force exploded behind Jiang Yuan, stirring up a gust of wind and filling the air with dust.
"Roar-wooo…"
The giant wolf's claws dug into the ground, letting out a desperate roar, exerting all its strength, yet unable to advance an inch.
Compared to Jiang Yuan's terrifying attributes, these Iron-Headed Wolves below LV10 were simply insignificant!
Jiang Yuan stood still, unmoving. With a slight exertion of his left hand, he lifted the entire giant wolf and then violently flung it away.
"Roar-wooo!"
Another giant wolf bit Jiang Yuan's arm from the side but had a steel tooth shattered by a backhand strike, followed by a punch that blew its head apart, sending brain matter splattering.
"Ding! You have killed an Iron-Headed Wolf, gaining +50 experience."
More than a dozen giant wolves surrounded Jiang Yuan, but he calmly dodged their attacks while countering with punches and kicks. Each strike contained terrifying explosive power, either shattering the giant wolf's body or tearing it in half.
Those brutal scenes made Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, momentarily stunned.
For a moment, she couldn't tell which side was the beast.
"Is his physique a bit too abnormal?" Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, muttered to herself, "Even those legendary professions with S-rank physical talents didn't seem this abnormal when they first became Martial Practitioners (One-Rank)…"
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty's eyes flickered, and she thought of a possibility,
"Could it be… he also hid his talent and profession, just like me?"
Thinking this, she gradually became more interested in this young man whom she had only met today.
...
In less than five minutes.
Jiang Yuan was surrounded by giant wolf corpses, blood staining a wide area.
Only the young man remained calm.
Lin Qingyan, School Beauty, found it hard to remain calm.
She had originally planned to wait until he ran out of stamina and begged for mercy before she intervened, but she never expected that he would actually kill all those beasts.
