C42 I'm a Professional When It Comes to Stealing People's Heads

The wilderness is full of danger, but at the same time, opportunities are everywhere.

Perhaps it was because of the mutated beast, the soil here could produce all kinds of special herbs, which were very valuable to humans.

For example, the Phoenix-Tail Grass that Lu Chong needed to cultivate the cicada slough mainly came from the wilderness, so it was very difficult to obtain it through manual cultivation.

Therefore, bounty hunters, Martial Artist, and the military's scouts would often venture into the wilderness to hunt and clear out the mutated beast while searching for all kinds of precious herbs.

Whether it was the mutated beast or the herbs, they were both scarce resources in the human world.

"Look, it's the Level 1 herb, the Sun Scorching Flower."

On the way, a student's eyes suddenly lit up. He pointed at a beautiful Three Leaves Red Flower and shouted.

As he spoke, he bent over and grabbed the Red Flower. This kind of elementary herb wasn't particularly expensive, but it was worth a few hundred dollars.

The key was to collect medicinal herbs, which could also be exchanged for military equipment.

However, just as the student's hand neared the fiery red flower petal, a black shadow suddenly scuttled out from within and headed straight for his neck.

"Be careful." A student beside him loudly reminded.

But the speed of the black shadow was too fast. The student who reached out to pick the herbs didn't even have time to react.

At this moment, a black light suddenly pierced through the air from afar, accurately hitting the black shadow, sending it flying.

The person who attacked was Lu Chong, who was more than ten meters away. He had been holding two stones in his hand all this time. At this moment, he had finally come in handy.

All the students heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at the black shadow that was smashed down and couldn't help but be slightly shocked.

"This is a Level 3 Black Mosquito. One bite from it can take half of our lives. That was close!"

The one that was smashed to death by the stone was indeed a mosquito.

However, this mosquito was much bigger than the one Lu Chong had seen in his previous life. Just the mouthpart that sucked blood was as long as a pinky.

"Thank you, Student Lu." The student who was preparing to pluck the flowers was so scared that his face turned pale. If Lu Chong had not acted in time, he would have been sent back for emergency treatment.

"You're welcome."

Lu Chong walked over and smiled as he picked the Sun Scorching Flowers from the ground and handed them over to the soldiers who followed behind him.

The Sun Scorching Flower and that black mosquito were both military merits, so he naturally would not let them go.

The student did not mind and continued to thank Lu Chong.

The students continued forward, but they became more cautious.

They realized that this was the wilderness, and there could be fatal dangers at any time.

Behind them, Liu Ziqiang quietly put away his pistol. If Lu Chong had not made a move just now, he would have stopped the black mosquito in time.

These soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles knew that in the wilderness, any kind of creature could be deadly.

Just like the early Level 3 black mosquito just now, it could still sneak attack and take the life of an upper-stage Martial Disciple.

This was not a drill, but a real battle. No one would tell you in advance that I'm coming.

The students searched and lined up like a carpet. They went deeper into the wilderness and saw more and more herbs, as well as various undetectable Level 1 mosquitoes.

These mosquitoes that only appeared in textbooks would always appear in a way that caught them off guard, and then directly ambush them to take their lives.

Fortunately, the students' learning and adaptability were not bad. Very quickly, they combined it with practice and found the rhythm, so they did not continue to step into the pit.

However, what made them feel aggrieved was that almost half of the mosquito mutated beast that appeared had been harvested by Lu Chong first.

Only some medicinal herbs that were first discovered by other students were not forcefully seized by Lu Chong.

"These are all military merits. In terms of stealing heads, I am a professional."

Lu Chong did not feel embarrassed. They had a competitive relationship to begin with. As long as the instructor did not say anything, it would be tacitly allowing him to snatch heads.

Moreover, those students who usually lived a comfortable life, most of them did not care about this bit of money. Instead, they were very uncomfortable with this kind of bloody scene and would rather be snatched away by Lu Chong.

"This kid is really not afraid of blood." At the back of the line, the class monitor came to Liu Ziqiang's side and muttered in surprise.

Liu Ziqiang said indifferently, "It's nothing more than fighting a few low-rank bugs and killing a few mosquitoes. There's nothing to be afraid of."

"Only when he sees his own people's blood and doesn't change his expression will he be truly brave." Liu Ziqiang said meaningfully.

The class monitor recalled the first time he saw a soldier's arm bitten off and a lump of flesh torn off by a mutated beast. He nodded in agreement.

Unknowingly, it was already noon. They had also successfully moved 40 miles away from the stronghold. They would be able to return after another 10 miles.

Although the journey was dangerous and dangerous, the students were also showing signs of fatigue.

In this kind of place, they had to be tense at all times. The psychological pressure they felt was too great.

Thinking that they could return to the fortress soon, the tense nerves of the students relaxed a lot. This really wasn't a human life.

But just as they were about to return, Lu Chong's nose suddenly twitched. He suddenly turned his head to look at a towering tree more than ten meters away.

When he saw this, Lu Chong couldn't help but jump in fright.

He saw that on the brown tree trunk, there was a snake that looked like tree bark wrapped around it. The snake's flat head was hidden in the middle of the falling tree branches, staring at a student who was passing by. The distance was less than two meters.

Ci!

At this moment, the snake's head suddenly moved, from calm to moving like a spring, its speed extremely fast.

"Not good!"

Lu Chong and the instructor behind him reacted almost at the same time. One threw out a stone, the other pulled out a gun and shot.

Bang!

The stone hit the snake's head, and the bullet hit seven inches of the snake.

However, this snake was not a low level mosquito from before. It was a withered wood snake that had reached the Level 8, and its vitality was even more tenacious.

Although it was in pain, it only moved its body a little before falling down even faster. It opened its bloody mouth and bit the student's forearm.

This student, who was scared silly, managed to react in time and used his arm to block his head.

But that was all. He had long forgotten the martial technique he had learned and only had a little reaction left.

With this mouthful, the student immediately let out a miserable cry. He shook his arm repeatedly in fear, wanting to throw the long snake away.

Right at this time, Lu Chong was the first to arrive. He attacked with the Eagle Claw Technique and brazenly grabbed the snake's seven inches.

Five fingers pierced through the snake's body, causing blood to flow out.1

With a sudden force, Lu Chong grabbed the snake and tore off a lump of flesh from the student's arm.

The Deadwood Snake screamed in pain when its seven inches were grabbed. Its two meter long body was like a long whip as it lashed towards Lu Chong.

"I'm used to you."

Lu Chong made up his mind. He grabbed the snake's tail with his other hand without showing any signs of weakness.

Then, he suddenly exerted his strength and tore the snake into two halves. Blood sprayed everywhere.

The scene was very bloody. It scared the surrounding students and made them flee in all directions.

"Good fellow, this kid is even more ferocious than the mutated beast!" The class monitor muttered with his mouth agape.

"What are you standing there for? Quickly go and save him." Liu Ziqiang looked at Lu Chong, who was covered in blood, and shouted.
