Chapter 86 Instant Kill
Chapter 86 Instant Kill
In the afternoon, sunlight pierced through the thin clouds.
The edge of the northern mountain range.
As usual, the three-headed Thunderwing Bird circled high in the sky, its metallic black and red scales shimmering with a cold, hard luster in the sunlight.
They possess absolute dominance over this airspace, and any flying creature that dares to enter their airspace will be ruthlessly hunted down.
When Li Hao's figure appeared on the horizon, the three Thunderwing Birds merely glanced at him indifferently.
The virtual panel has already displayed information about these mutated birds.
[Mutant Thunderwing Bird]
Bioenergy intensity ≈ 300-330 standard units
[Strength Level: Level 3 (Threat level can reach 3+ in group combat)]
【Characteristics: Feathers possess energy resistance; can eject high-temperature plasma jets; dive speeds can reach the speed of sound; claw attacks inflict lightning effects; cooperative hunting in groups.】
"It can even spray high-temperature plasma streams."
Li Hao was slightly startled.
However, he does not intend to get close this time.
He hovered a kilometer away and raised his right arm.
The palm lights up.
Particle arm unit – maximum power, charging begins.
0.8 seconds.
A silvery-white sphere of light rapidly condensed in the palm of the hand, then compressed and spun wildly.
Compressed to just slightly larger than a fist.
Energy density increased several times over!
Air ionization.
0.5 seconds.
The AI's prompt message came rapidly: [Warning! Current power exceeds the safety threshold by 17%, increasing the risk of unit damage! Confirm launch?]
Li Hao did not respond.
0.2 seconds.
The three Thunderwing Birds instinctively sensed a deadly threat.
Without further hesitation, they spread their wings and charged towards Li Hao!
0 seconds.
emission.
"Buzz!!!"
The air trembled.
A pure white beam of light, condensed to its extreme and only the thickness of a thumb, instantly traversed a distance of a thousand meters!
The beam of light instantly struck the head of the Thunderwing Bird at the very front.
There was no explosion.
The Thunderwing Bird's head was pierced through.
It was as if it had been roughly erased from the canvas by an eraser.
The giant bird's body remained in the outstretched wing position, and inertia propelled it forward for nearly a hundred meters. Blue-purple blood, like a runaway faucet, splashed in the air, creating a tragic arc.
Then it plummeted rapidly.
The remaining two Thunderwing Birds screeched and uttered mournful cries before charging recklessly toward Li Hao!
Li Hao waved his arm, and the particle beam, like a laser, swept across the two Thunderwing Birds.
"Pfft pfft."
The particle beam sliced through the bodies of the two Thunderwing Birds.
"Gah!"
The Thunderwing Bird, charging forward from both ends, shuddered and then split in two.
Internal organs and blood gushed out all at once.
The four halves of the corpse fell rapidly.
"Instant kill!"
Li Wen, who was standing on the top of the tree canopy in the distance, saw this scene and his face showed excitement.
"Such advanced biotechnology!"
On the canopy of another tree, Zhao Meng looked shocked.
Although he had seen Li Hao test particle beams outside the community, seeing this kind of bio-technology—which surpasses Earth's—directly kill powerful mutant beasts still made him feel incredible.
too strong.
Zhang Xiaonan and the female team members next to her also looked surprised.
"Captain Li Hao is really amazing!" the female team member couldn't help but cheer.
Li Hao landed next to the corpse of the first Thunderwing Bird and took a pale green evolution stone from its head.
It's the same size as a thumb, but a bit darker in color.
[High-purity energy source, usable for repairing cytoplasmic embryos]
The AI provides timely prompts.
He threw the evolution stone directly into his mouth.
"Click."
"Gulp."
Bioenergy intensity ≈ 366 - 376 standard units
[Compared to previous data: an improvement of approximately 2.73%]
[Strength Level Assessment: Level 3 (Mid-High)]
[The main energy structure has been detected to be stabilizing; breaking through to level 4 requires more high-quality energy sources or a special opportunity.]
Li Hao found two more Thunderwing Birds and took out their evolution stones.
He hesitated for a moment, then did not take it this time, but instead put it away.
·············
Let's go back to the morning.
Dozens of slaves carried the enormous armored tortoise slowly into the residential area.
"Clang clang clang".
The patrolmen struck the gong.
The giant carapace turtle, measuring fifteen meters long and eight meters wide, immediately caused a sensation.
"Wow! What a huge monster!"
"This is too big."
Residents from all the neighborhoods ran out and surrounded the giant tortoise.
Wang Hao, along with Zhang Jinfeng, Wang Yi, and others, approached.
"This is the monster!" Wang Yi exclaimed excitedly, pointing at the giant armored tortoise.
"Captain Li Hao is really amazing. I almost got killed by this monster, but Captain Li Hao killed it right away. Tsk tsk tsk." Wang Yi looked at the giant armored tortoise with great admiration.
At a glance, you can see that this mutated monster has been almost cut in two.
Only Li Hao has that ability.
"Honey, Captain Li Hao avenged you." Liu Xueqin said, hugging his arm.
Wang Hao, standing nearby, looked up at the sky and smiled. "Li Hao is too fast. I thought it would take him at least a day to deal with one territory creature, but I didn't expect him to have taken care of one before noon."
"Big crab! So much roe!" Niu Dazhuang licked his lips as he looked at the yellow, oily roe.
Zhang Jingfeng, standing nearby, laughed and said, "We can have an extra meal tonight. This mutated giant crab is so strong, it must be very nourishing."
Wang Hao had people gather firewood in the square to prepare for tonight's roasted crabs.
We've just finished preparing.
It was past noon.
Shadowmoon returned with a group of slaves.
Each of them held a rope in their hand, with dozens of mutated monkeys tied to it.
"Clang clang clang".
The gong was struck again.
"Holy crap! So many corpses!"
"This looks like a mutated monkey."
"It's not a monkey. Look, it doesn't have any facial features, and it even has sharp claws."
"It looks like a monkey."
The residents gathered around the mutated monkey, discussing it animatedly.
"This one must be big; it must be the leader."
Someone pointed to the silvery-white giant ape's corpse and said.
"Do you even need to tell me?"
Upon receiving the news, Wang Hao immediately led his men over.
"You're back so soon? Where are Li Hao and the others?" Wang Hao asked Yingyue, glancing at the corpses scattered all over the ground.
"Our master told us to bring back these mutated beast corpses first, and then he led his men to sweep through other areas."
"Haha, Li Hao's efficiency is too fast! He's going to give me a surprise!" Wang Hao couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Including the territory of this mutated giant ape, two territories occupied by mutated beasts have already been wiped out.
At this rate, it will only take two days to deal with the territories of the mutated beasts all around and expand the Dawn Territory.
The setting sun turned the horizon into a molten gold.
Outside the residential area, several small black dots were clearly visible in the sky.
The three enormous mutated Thunderwing Bird corpses hovered in mid-air.
Li Haofei was at the front, followed by Zhang Xiaonan and the female team members on his left, and Li Wen and Zhao Meng on his right.
"Clang clang clang!"
"Captain Li Hao is back!"
The patrol team spotted Li Hao and his group and immediately struck a gong.
Li Hao looked down and saw that a bonfire had already been lit in the square.
He led many astray.
Wang Hao led the group forward, a smile on his face. "Li Hao, you've really surprised us." He glanced at the three massive, tens-of-meters-long Thunderwing bird corpses.
"You've taken down three mutated beast territories in one day, that's impressive."
"Captain Li Hao, thanks to you, we're in for a treat tonight," Niu Dazhuang said with a smile.
"Then you should eat more." Li Hao exchanged a few pleasantries with everyone and joined the barbecue.
As the grease dripped into the flame, it exploded with a crackling sound.
On the iron rack, slices of meat were roasted until golden brown and crispy, sizzling with oil as it seeped out.
The giant mantis's claws were pried open, the tender meat was cut into thick slices, fried on a hot plate until slightly charred, and then sprinkled with salt and wild onions.
The tenderloin of the mutant ape is the most tender, making it suitable for quick grilling, with a chewy and springy texture.
The breast meat of the Thunderwing Bird is light pink, and it is most juicy when roasted to medium-rare, with a subtle caramelized aroma and a sweet aftertaste.
Children ran around the campfire carrying wooden bowls, while adults sat in a circle, rare smiles appearing on their faces.
"This meat smells so good..."
An old man bit into the sizzling, oily roasted bird meat, his cloudy eyes welling up with tears.
"This is the first time I've eaten so comfortably in this run-down place."
"With Captain Li Hao here, we can feel so secure every day!" a young man nearby exclaimed.
"Yes! Cheers!"
Everyone toasted each other with water instead of wine, laughing as they did so.
Li Hao sat by the main campfire, with freshly roasted turtle meat and bird breast laid out in front of him.
Chen Sihan sat beside him, using a knife to cut the meat into bite-sized pieces, handing them to him from time to time.
Li Wen wolfed down his food, his mouth glistening with oil: "Brother, this Thunderwing Bird meat is so delicious! It's much more tender than chicken breast!"
Su Tiantian smiled and handed him the grilled meat.
"Hmm." Li Hao chewed slowly, glancing at his teammates beside him.
Niu Dazhuang had already devoured three jin of turtle meat, but he was still not satisfied.
His wife was also serving him.
Zhao Meng chatted with his wife while eating.
Wang Yi, Liu Xueqin, and their daughter Mengmeng ate barbecue while drinking Sprite.
Zhang Jinfeng ate quickly, his mantis-like compound eyes darting around, constantly watching for any movement around him.
More than a hundred slaves were responsible for roasting the meat, and then handing it to everyone after it was cooked.
Yingyue was specifically responsible for serving Li Hao.
As night deepened, the campfire gradually died down.
The watchman added fresh firewood, and the orange-red embers illuminated the sentry's silhouette.
The evolution stones were distributed by Wang Hao according to their contributions.
Only two level-three evolution stones remained, which were prioritized and allocated to Li Hao and Li Wen.
Zhang Xiaonan, Zhao Meng, and others were allocated a number of level 2 evolution stones.
Wang Hao distributed the Level 1 Evolution Stones to the other evolvers according to their evolutionary strength.
The remaining level 2 and level 1 evolution stones were fed to the bio-armor mother.
Even those who weren't allocated evolution stones experienced a power boost due to consuming large amounts of mutated beast meat.
Inside the room, Li Hao consumed a level-three evolution stone.
Bioenergy intensity ≈ 376 - 380 standard units
[Compared to previous data: an improvement of approximately 1.06%]
[Strength Level Assessment: Level 3 (High-Ranking)]
He has discovered that as his strength increases, the boost from Tier 3 evolution stones becomes less and less significant.
"Here, have this one."
He handed Chen Sihan a dark blue evolution stone.
"Thank you, Brother Hao." Chen Sihan smiled sweetly and leaned in to kiss Li Hao on the cheek.
"Crack, gulp."
As Chen Sihan swallowed the evolution stone, her bio-energy units began to rise.
Bioenergy intensity ≈ 190-195 standard units
[Strength Level Assessment: Level 1 (High-Ranking)]
Li Hao looked at the virtual panel.
With this level of strength, it should be roughly equivalent to those two mutated giant snakes.
It looks like one more pill will be enough to upgrade it to level 2.
That night, many people in Dawn City completed a leap in their life energy while they slept.
The next morning, the fog was very thick.
A woman lay face up on the cold concrete floor, her eyes wide open, staring blankly at the sky.
She was completely naked, her skin an abnormal bluish-white, with dark purple marks on her neck, wrists, and ankles.
There was dried blood at the corner of his mouth.
Her hair was disheveled, and a small clump had been pulled out.
The patrol team members' eyes widened when they saw it.
"Clang clang clang!"
"Help...help someone!!!"
The sound tore through the morning mist.
