Chapter 57: Obtaining a Grade Four Beast Core

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yang Tian was not going to let this fellow go. Not only because he wanted to kill Xu Zhan, but also because he knew of Yang Tian’s secret.

Among the Class Six Warriors, no one ran as fast as Yang Tian.

Yang Tian smiled coldly and chased after him.

“Squeak squeak!”

At that moment, Drago squeaked from a nearby try. It jumped off the tree trunk and gave chase as well.

Even the little green dragon understood Xu Zhan could not be allowed to escape!

Xu Zhan ran for all he was worth. He knew that if he did not escape, there was only one outcome: death!

Suddenly, Xu Zhan heard a rush of wind next to his ear while he was running. The next thing he knew, the world had gone dark and became very painful.

Bang!

Xu Zhan had lost his vision while he was running, and collided head-on with a tree. The impact knocked him out.

Yang Tian soon arrived and looked at Xu Zhan who was lying senseless on the ground. He walked toward Xu Zhan and took hold of him by his neck. With a savage twist, Xu Zhan’s neck was snapped by Yang Tian while he was unconscious.

The obvious reason why Xu Zhan lost his sight was because Drago had clawed out his eyes.

Pat pat pat…

After taking the Warriormate off of Xu Zhan’s corpse, Yang Tian immediately crushed it. After that, he used his claws and began digging a large pit in the ground. He tossed Xu Zhan’s corpse into it and buried him. He then stomped on the ground to pad the dirt together and covered the grave with leaves.

This way, no one would realize Xu Zhan was dead, at least in the short term.

Yang Tian recalled the Dragon Pearl energy in his hands, returning them to their human form.

This was the first time Drago had worked with Yang Tian to kill a Warrior. If this was always the case in the future, Yang Tian could easily defeat a Class Six Warrior!

Yang Tian found Xu Zhan’s backpack and rifled through it. He found a few packs of spices and two pounds of salt. He also found two Grade One Beast Cores, two Grade Two Beast Cores, and one Grade Three Beast Core. With Xu Zhan’s selfish personality, these Beast Cores could have been from Monsters he killed or taken from the hands of other Warriors.

Even though he could soon resupply from Xiao Fei and the others, Yang Tian still kept the packs of salt and spices. He put the five Beast Cores in his pocket.

After putting his things away, Yang Tian left with haste.

Yang Tian’s battle with Xu Zhan had taken less than ten minutes. As Yang Tian was leaving, more Warriors were arriving.

This was how despicable Du Xiongwu was. Using Tianxiong City’s Communications Center, he could know the position of every Warrior who possessed a Warriormate. As long as Yang Tian used his Warriormate to connect to the web, the people at the Communications Center would know, and they would broadcast his position to other Warriors.

Luckily, the Warriormate was not developed by Tianxiong City, so every message was encrypted. Otherwise, Du Xiongwu would have had even more information. Perhaps he could even remotely activate the Warriormate to find out Yang Tian’s location even when he was offline.

After killing Xu Zhan, Yang Tian’s goal was to obtain a Grade Five Beast Core.

Before he saw Xiao Fei, he had to obtain a Grade Five Beast Core.

If it were any other Warrior, it would be an extremely difficult task to fulfill on such short notice because the Monsters in the forest would not appear just because you were looking for them. However, to Yang Tian, it was extremely easy because he had Drago to guide him.

“Squeak squeak squeak…”

After traveling a short distance, Drago began to call out. It told Yang Tian that a kilometer ahead of them was a Grade Four Monster.

Even though Drago could detect the existence of Beast Cores, there was a limit to its range. Drago could only detect the existence of Beast Cores within a five-kilometer range. Within a one kilometer range, it could judge the Grade of the Beast Core.

Furthermore, Drago also could not tell what kind of monster had created the Beast Core.

A Grade Four Beast Core? To Yang Tian, this was something he had to get as well. With his current strength, he could easily kill a Grade Four Monster.

Following Drago’s guidance, Yang Tian ran through the forest and soon arrived at a small pond formed by the flooding of the stream.

A crocodile!

When did crocodiles appear in this forest! Yang Tian was rather confused. This area never had crocodiles around before the YS Virus.

“It must have been brought here by humans?”

After contemplating for a while, Yang Tian understood why. The survival ability of a Monster was exponentially stronger than before they mutated. This crocodile must have been imported by humans to the area before the YS Virus.

Yang Tian stood by the pond and looked at the Yellow-backed Crocodile in the water. He thought about how to kill it.

The pond was not large, but it was deep. This crocodile was large, and its body was at least ten meters long. However, it was submerged in the water.

Yang Tian had no confidence in his ability to kill that savage Grade Four Monster in the water.

Up till then, the ocean was a place where Warriors could not tread-not even shallow seas.

At that moment, the Yellow-backed Crocodile spotted Yang Tian and swam toward him. Yang Tian began to slowly back away.

The Yellow-backed Crocodile crawled onto the bank; its speed on land was terrifyingly fast. It charged at Yang Tian. In the reptile’s mind, Yang Tian had invaded its territory, and it wanted Yang Tian gone.

Monsters who had a Grade understood the concept of territory. Generally, it would not allow other Monsters to survive in its territory. 1

To the Yellow-backed Crocodile, the pond was a very good spot because the Monsters in the forest all needed to drink water. When they came for a drink, the reptile had a source of food.

Yang Tian retreated backward faster and tried to draw the beast as far away from the pond as possible.

However, after reaching a distance of roughly 50 meters away from the pond, the Yellow-backed Crocodile realized that Yang Tian was faster than it. It gave up the chase, turned, and crawled back into the pond.

Yang Tian could not let it return to the pond and immediately charged at it.

Yang Tian was about 20 meters away from the reptile. The Yellow-backed crocodile heard Yang Tian’s footsteps. It lifted its head and turned, opening its massive maw at Yang Tian.

Even if the crocodile was only a Grade Four Monster, Yang Tian did not take it lightly.

When he was roughly five or six meters away, Yang Tian leaped into the air, somersaulting while airborne before burying the knife into the head of the Yellow-backed Crocodile. 1

With a tap, only the tip of the knife in Yang Tian’s hand slid in; the knife did not go any further into the reptile’s body.

“What thick skin!” Yang Tian said to himself. He pulled the knife out and punched at the Yellow-backed Crocodile’s head.

Thud!

Yang Tian had used all his might. This strike could even break the trunk of a medium-sized tree. However, his fist simply bounced back. The reptile thrashed its head and threw Yang Tian off.

This crocodile was only a Grade Four Monster but it was extremely tough! However, its movements were slow. To Yang Tian, that would be its fatal weakness. 1

“Squeak squeak squeak…”

At that moment, Drago called out to warn Yang Tian that people were coming.

This was not the best time!

Yang Tian looked at the Yellow-backed Crocodile and said to himself that he could not let this beast go.

“Drago! Kill it!” Yang Tian could only send Drago out.

To Yang Tian, he did not have much time, and he did not want to keep Xiao Fei and the team waiting for long.

“Squeak squeak!”

Drago squeaked twice in excitement before jumping onto the crocodile’s head and raising its claws.

After consuming the Grade Seven Beast Core, Drago not only replenished the strength he expended to transform, but his abilities had also gone up by one level. His claws were even more powerful than before.

Drago’s claws kept moving. Despite the constant struggling of the Yellow-backed Crocodile, it had bored into the skull of the crocodile within a minute. It plucked out a green Grade Four Beast Core from within the skull of the Yellow-backed Crocodile and jumped onto Yang Tian’s shoulder.

Yang Tian put on his backpack, and hastily left the scene.

A few minutes later, Zhao Shuangxing and five others appeared. They immediately saw the carcass of the Yellow-backed Crocodile.

“This was not done by a human. This was done by some kind of Monster.”

Zhao Shuangxing spoke as he frowned while looking at the hole in the head of the carcass.

“This is a Grade Four Yellow-backed Crocodile. To be able to kill it so cleanly, the other Monster must be at least Grade Five or higher. Furthermore, it’s not large.” A young woman dressed in black said.

A very small high-Grade Monster!

To the Warriors in the forest, this was not good news.

Zhao Shuangxing immediately used his Warriormate to transmit this news.
