Chapter 65 Scaled Beast! Bloodthirsty Monkey!

"I just sent someone to the Pure Land to contact headquarters, and I learned that a hunting group discovered traces of the Scaled Beast a few kilometers ahead the day before yesterday."

Furthermore, the remains of the Gold-Eating Beast, Iron-Melting Beast, and Steel-Eroding Beast were also discovered in their activity area.

These Steel-Eroding Beasts and Iron-Melting Beasts at the outpost must have come here to escape the Scaled Beasts...

Bazelgeuse!

Upon hearing the captain's words, Shen Mo and Shi Lan exchanged bewildered glances.

The Scale Beast is a fourth-tier magical beast, and its combat power is among the top in its tier.

Such monsters usually only appear in the abyss and at its edge.

Now, due to the demonic tide, it has appeared at the border between the wasteland and the demonic realm.

If the Scaled Beast is still nearby, wouldn't this whole area be unsafe?

Thinking about the tasks ahead, Shi Lan asked:

"Was that Scaled Beast defeated?"

"No," the captain shook his head and said, "but don't worry, according to the investigation, that Scaled Beast has already returned to the edge of the abyss."

Hearing this, Shen Mo and Shi Lan felt slightly relieved.

The captain looked at the two of them, his expression much gentler than before, and handed a piece of paper to Shi Lan, saying:

"Thank you both for everything you did to clear the monsters from the outpost."

My assessment of the difficulty of this task is Level E.

Here are the receipts. Please take a look and see if there are any problems.

Upon hearing this, Shi Lan took the certificate and examined it with Shen Mo.

The voucher not only describes the process of the task, but also indicates the quantity of the task objectives.

It also states that Shi Lan and Shen Mo were the main entities responsible for completing the task, ensuring fairness and impartiality.

"No problem." Shi Lan put away the mission token.

Shen Mo looked at the soldiers dismantling the supplies and asked:

"Captain, do you have any longswords or arrows?"

After slaying the Steel-Eroding Beast and the Iron-Melting Beast, Shen Mo's longsword was severely rusted, and he didn't know if it could last until the end of the next mission.

Therefore, Shen Mo wanted to obtain some equipment from the garrison troops who were preparing to move into the outpost.

Upon hearing this, the captain glanced at the long knife in Shen Mo's hand, then turned and walked to the truck.

A moment later, he brought over a long sword and a bundle of arrows, and handed them to Shen Mo, saying:

"Consider it compensation for the losses incurred in clearing out the monsters at the outpost."

Thanks!

After taking the items, Shen Mo thanked him.

The longsword was just an ordinary longsword made of fine steel, but there were ten magic fang arrows among the arrows, thankfully they didn't cost any money.

"Are you still going on a mission?" the captain asked.

"Mm." Shen Mo nodded.

"Is it far?"

"Not far!" Shi Lan said with a smile, "It's only about seven or eight kilometers to the west, and it's close to the patrol route."

"Then I'll send a car to take you there!" the captain said, extending a gesture of goodwill.

He initially thought it was one bronze and one iron.

The two men took on the outpost assignment, and they were a bit too overconfident.

If the mission fails, it will not only waste time but also reduce manpower.

They might have to return to headquarters and wait for the association to send people back to clear the outpost tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, these bronze and iron weapons displayed strength comparable to a silver-level demon hunter!

Even though the outpost's predictions differed greatly from the intelligence reports, the two still managed to kill all the monsters.

This immediately changed the captain's opinion of the two men, and he even took the initiative to befriend them.

After all, outside the city, they were the garrison soldiers who had the closest contact with the Witcher...

Soon, Shen Mo and Shi Lan were taken to their next mission location by a car arranged by the captain.

Their mission this time was still to clear out the monsters.

The location was a small hill between MG-S-2 and MG-S-1, and the target was a group of bloodthirsty monkeys.

As the demonic tide receded.

The Demon Hunter Association's missions are now focused on clearing out monsters around outposts and patrol routes, and restoring order to the sanctuary and wasteland.

The presence of those bloodthirsty monkeys threatened the safety of patrol teams, caravans, and transport teams, so they needed to be dealt with.

Shen Mo was interested in this mission because there were quite a few Bloodthirsty Monkeys, which could help him obtain more enhancement points.

Shi Lan was interested in one of these bloodthirsty monkeys, a second-tier evolved Berserker Monkey that served as its king.

Moreover, these kinds of monsters have a strong desire to attack.

The smell of blood drives her to madness, causing her to attack her target without her having to chase her across the mountains and fields...

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Shen Mo drew his bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at the bloodthirsty monkeys that had already spotted them.

Shi Lan, carrying his battle axe, headed straight up the mountain.

The whole hill erupted in excitement when they noticed someone approaching.

Amidst the hooting sounds, one after another, bloodthirsty monkeys emerged from the trees.

As if they had taken stimulants, they surged toward the two people below the mountain.

Whoosh!

The Tier 1 monster "Bloodthirsty Monkey" has been added to the roster, rewarding you with 1 point of Constitution attribute enhancement!

[You have hunted 1 Bloodthirsty Monkeys, rewarding you with 1 skill enhancement point!]

......

Shen Mo delivered a decisive blow, securing a successful start.

He then quickly drew his bow, nocked an arrow, and fired again.

After shooting down five bloodthirsty monkeys in succession.

Seeing the bloodthirsty monkey rushing down the mountain, Shen Mo abandoned his bow, drew his sword, and went to meet it.

This beast, standing upright and about 1.45 meters tall, possesses vampire-like fangs and sharp claws.

With its scarlet eyes, mottled fur, amazing jumping ability, and fast running speed, it is quite formidable.

The mad blood monkeys on the mountain were even larger than Shen Mo.

Seeing Shen Mo rush forward and let out a long roar, the monkey troop immediately split into two groups.

One group surrounded Shi Lan, while another roared and charged towards Shen Mo.

Sprint!

Holding a brand-new steel longsword, Shen Mo's movement speed increased dramatically, and he suddenly rushed in front of the Bloodthirsty Monkey.

Its movements were unpredictable, darting and weaving among the bloodthirsty monkeys.

The long sword in his hand had also disappeared, leaving only a hazy glint of its light.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Amidst the whistling sound of blades cutting through the air, the bloodthirsty monkey lunged at Shen Mo with bared teeth and claws, but couldn't even touch the hem of Shen Mo's clothes.

Instead, they lined up like soldiers offering their heads, one after another, facing the blade with their necks, only to end up with their heads severed from their bodies.

"Your swordsmanship has improved so quickly!"

Seeing Shen Mo's battle, Shi Lan's eyes lit up.

The outpost was dimly lit, and she only knew that Shen Mo's swordsmanship had improved, but she didn't know how much.

Only now, out of the corner of her eye, did she realize that Shen Mo was not only highly talented, but also had an absurdly high level of comprehension.

His movement and swordsmanship are much better than when he was in the Rose Workshop!

"He's probably not much worse than Yang Shuo!"

Yang Shuo is a core member of the Red Flag Demon Hunter Team and a Bronze-level Demon Hunter.

He has been practicing swordsmanship for nearly ten years.

In Shi Lan's view, he was just like Shen Mo...

Since the Bloodthirsty Monkeys didn't come down the mountain, Shi Lan felt no pressure facing their siege and began to observe Shen Mo's battle.

Seeing that Shen Mo was still able to handle the attack of the five bloodthirsty monkeys with ease and showed no signs of fatigue.

Shi Lan then gave Shen Mo some more bloodthirsty monkeys.

This suited Shen Mo perfectly. He consumed 2 points of Constitution Enhancement and then invested the remaining 12 points of Skill Enhancement into his swordsmanship.

[Physical Fitness: 30]

[Swordsmanship LV38 (Expert)]

......

The fatigue in my body vanished instantly, and my internal magic power was rapidly restored.

At the same time, a wealth of knowledge about swordsmanship flooded his mind, and Shen Mo fought even more fiercely.

With unstoppable force, the long sword in his hand swept through everything in its path. After a flurry of flashing blades, all seven bloodthirsty monkeys were annihilated!

Shi Lan, who witnessed Shen Mo's sudden improvement in swordsmanship, was stunned.

Forgot to dodge for a moment, and was approached by two bloodthirsty monkeys!
