Doomsday: Gain experience by hunting

#315 - I saved my life, but the more I eat, the weaker I become.

"Not good! This underground tunnel leads directly to the river!"

"Block both ends of the river!"

"The river is too long; we'll have to reveal our true forms!"

Tiger Twenty-one meant that a large-scale search would expose Tang Wen, and his concealment technique wouldn't hold up.

The people at the dock would immediately know that White Tigers had come to kill.

Fortunately, after rushing out, the White Tigers acted quickly, and under Tiger Cloud's command, they blocked the river at both ends.

Tang Wen immediately used practical concealment, eliminating any noise.

Four White Tigers occupied the four corners of the river, probing with their mental energy.

Black mist emanated from Tang Wen's entire body, ensuring that even if recorded by a memory stone, he couldn't be identified.

Splash!

The Thunder Rock Crocodile Turtle entered the water, purple lightning flashing beneath it, causing the fish in the river to turn belly up.

A White Tiger used its wind power to scoop the dead fish onto the shore.

The Thunder Rock Crocodile Turtle slowly moved forward along the river, killing all fish and shrimp in its path, which then floated on the surface.

Combined with the mental energy search of the four White Tigers, a fifth-rank hiding in the water would definitely not be able to conceal themselves.

Even hiding in the mud at the bottom wouldn't work.

"Are you sure the person is in the river?" Not seeing anyone, Tang Wen was uneasy.

"Definitely in there." Tiger Cloud had seen the person jump in.

The Thunder Rock Crocodile Turtle wasn't slow, gradually swimming through eighty or ninety percent of the distance, electrocuting fish of all sizes, and causing snakes, frogs, turtles, and soft-shelled turtles to float to the surface.

Among them was a carp nearly two meters long.

This river was frequently used by boats, so there weren't any exotic beasts.

The unsearched area was getting smaller and smaller, and Tang Wen's heart sank lower and lower.

In the blink of an eye, the crocodile turtle had searched the entire river.

All the fish in the river were dead, but there was no sign of anyone rushing out.

"I'll swim through again!"

After the Thunder Rock Crocodile Turtle finished speaking, it turned around and continued to discharge electricity.

Tiger Seven gently chanted, and a tornado rose again on the river, scooping up the fish and shrimp on the surface and flinging them onto the bank!

Tiger Cloud looked at Tang Wen: "Mental energy has scanned it; there's no one in the river."

Tang Wen took a deep breath, already prepared for the worst.

He was considering whether to go back and lead the White Tigers to barge in, making a false accusation, saying that the fifth-rank expert at the thirteenth dock, what was her name? She abducted... uh, abducted his own little White Tiger.

Yes!

That's what he'd say.

Regardless of whether others believed it or not, he believed it anyway.

As for the missing experts from other docks of your boat gang, what did that have to do with him?

This method could buy some time.

When Shadow King returned, he would ask him to take a trip and get rid of the boat boss, and the matter would be over.

A black shadow darted over; he looked up and saw Stone Dragon, who had been waiting outside the dock, swimming over.

"Go to the bottom of the river and see if there are any traces of earth escape!"

Stone Dragon plunged into the river.

The crocodile turtle swam around again, still finding no one.

Tang Wen stopped its continued search.

Time slowly passed.

The sky began to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

Seeming to sense the pressure on Tang Wen, Tiger Cloud leaned over and held his hand: "Don't worry, I'll send a message back later and secretly transfer my hunting squad over. Adding Tiger Li and the others, even if the Huang family and the boat gang have a hundred fifth-ranks, we can still fight!"

Her voice was firm and decisive.

Like a female general.

Tang Wen was stunned, then kissed her, his heart filled with confidence.

The sky brightened with a red glow; the sun was about to rise.

Fortunately, it was deep winter, and the thirteenth dock wasn't too big, so only a few workers came out of their houses to start working.

Splash!

Stone Dragon broke out of the water.

Without asking, it was clear that it had found nothing.

Stone Dragon had explored the depth of three hundred meters underground, and there was no one and no traces.

Sunlight scattered.

Seamlessly penetrating Tang Wen's concealment, it fell on both sides of the river.

The golden-red sunlight shone, and the scales on the dead fish glittered.

Huh?

Tang Wen gave Tiger Cloud a look.

The latter didn't understand, but out of trust for Tang Wen, she put one hand behind her back, the black thunder in her hand deep and terrifying.

"It's dawn, and since we can't find anyone, let's prepare to withdraw." Tang Wen tried to keep his tone steady, then casually said, "Stone Dragon, Crocodile Turtle, you two must be hungry. There are so many fish on the shore; eat them. Throw the ones you can't eat back into the water."

The two exotic beasts didn't refuse.

In the north, the crocodile turtle opened its bloody mouth and began to eat.

Stone Dragon opened its mouth and inhaled, and the fish and shrimp on the south bank fell into its mouth.

For fifth-rank exotic beasts, eating ordinary fish and shrimp was almost never enough to fill them up.

Like a super-large vacuum cleaner, it walked with its mouth open, emptying the sides of the river.

Fewer and fewer fish and shrimp.

Seeing that the crocodile turtle was next to a two-meter-long carp, whether it was the vibration of its walking or something else, the carp suddenly slid out of the dead fish and unexpectedly slid towards the river, falling into the water.

"Seven!"

Whoosh—

Tang Wen shouted, and a tornado rose out of thin air, scooping up the dead grass and gravel on the riverbank, and also scooping up the big carp!

Tiger Cloud's eyes flashed; there was something wrong with this fish!

"Spare me, sir!"

A woman's voice suddenly rang out.

In the swirling wind, the carp turned into a woman.

Turned into a beautiful woman wearing a nightgown, soaking wet, with curves in all the right places!

Her face was full of tears, pleading in a miserable voice.

With a swish.

Tiger Twenty-one and the other two used three consecutive wind restraints to trap her.

At this time, a team of guards walked towards them.

Tang Wen glanced at them: "Let's go; we'll talk outside the city."

The beautiful woman's face changed again and again upon hearing this. She moved her shoulders, wanting to struggle, but felt that she was being squeezed by invisible boulders all around, unable to move.

"Is this your illusion technique?"

"Yes." The beautiful woman slumped to the ground, leaning weakly against the stone beside her.

She had been at the fifth rank for less than two years, and couldn't even beat Stone Dragon, the weakest member of Tang Wen's team, so she could only accept her fate.

She asked in a muffled voice, "My illusion technique can't even be seen through by the boat boss. How did you discover it, sir?"

Tang Wen smiled: "That river is used by boats every day, and there isn't a single exotic beast. It must have been cleared by you. A two-meter-long fish shouldn't appear. Moreover, the sun is out, but the scales on your body don't reflect much light."

Countless people live along the river, and everyone knows how to fish.

Where could an ordinary carp grow so big?

Furthermore, as the external environment changed and the sunlight fell, this woman didn't simulate the reflection effect in time.

The beautiful woman wasn't surprised after hearing this, and sighed leisurely: "Ganshan City doesn't have any Illusion Department techniques at all. I can only practice Water Department techniques. I can reflect fish scales, but I was too nervous when I was about to be eaten."

"Your talent is illusion technique?" Tang Wen was very curious.

As it concerned her life and death, the woman didn't dare to be careless and directly demonstrated: "Please take a look, sir."

After speaking, the woman transformed into a long, rectangular boulder.

With edges and corners, lifelike.

Tang Wen watched for a while and didn't notice any flaws, so he reached out and poked it: "Hard, and the texture feels like a stone."

"Please spare me, sir!" The stone was begging for mercy.

"You recognize me?"

"With your handsome appearance, sir, even a fleeting glance is unforgettable! Please spare my life, sir. I will be your ox and horse, at your disposal."

The woman transformed back from the boulder, her chest wide open, revealing a snowy white valley of considerable size and depth.

Before Tang Wen could speak, Tiger Cloud snorted coldly: "Be an ox and horse? You wish!"

She turned to Tang Wen: "Her ability is somewhat useful. My tribe has fragments of Illusion Department techniques. Why don't I take her away?"

Tang Wen naturally wouldn't object. The woman in front of him had some beauty, but she couldn't compare to Tiger Cloud.

"Did you hear that?"

"This? Is this girl an expert from the White Tiger tribe?" The woman breathed a sigh of relief; it was good to be alive.

"That's right. Serve her well, and you'll naturally get the fifth-rank Illusion Department techniques."

The woman hesitated for a moment: "I have a question that I haven't answered yet. What feud do you have with me, sir?"

Tang Wen was stunned, his face slightly embarrassed.

The woman was even more confused when she saw this.

Even if there was some resentment, even if it was just to strike at the boat gang, he should have controlled her and said a few words, threatened her, and then killed her if they couldn't reach an agreement.

Why did he rush into her house and attack her without saying a word?

If she hadn't always been aware of her own limitations and built a secret room to sleep in, she would already be dead.

"Cough, that..."

Tang Wen hadn't thought about what to say, and Tiger Cloud responded lightly: "I don't like the way your boat boss speaks to Tang Wen."

The air fell silent.

The woman didn't seem to understand, or maybe she did, and her face was full of astonishment: "What?"

"Your boat boss lives in Ganshan City, and it's not easy to kill him." Tiger Cloud explained, and then added, "Mainly because it would make a commotion."

The beautiful woman felt like she was hearing a fairy tale, and she felt incredibly absurd: "So, you came to vent your anger on me, the weakest fifth-rank?"

This woman's combat power wasn't strong.

Tang Wen saw that she was holding her breath, and quickly said, "Don't misunderstand; we didn't come for you specifically. We killed our way over here."

"What do you mean?"

Tang Wen looked in the direction of Ganshan City: "There aren't many fifth-ranks alive in your boat gang. Those outside the city, except for those who went to escort ships, are basically dead. Oh, except for you."

His voice was very calm, and his face was very peaceful.

But the beautiful woman suddenly shivered and said in disbelief, "Impossible, impossible..."

She turned her head and saw four furry White Tigers and the crocodile turtle. She immediately closed her mouth, slumped beside the stone, and smiled bitterly.

Seeing that she wasn't too sad when she heard that the fifth-rank guarding the dock was dead, and there was no hatred in her eyes, Tang Wen was relieved.

She had feelings for the boat gang, but not many.

"What? Do you want to avenge someone?" Tiger Cloud looked at her.

The beautiful woman shook her head: "They're just acquaintances, not even friends."

"Didn't your boat boss try to take advantage of you?"

"Hehe, our boat boss only likes women with martial arts strength. He wouldn't dare to provoke even female martial artists easily, so how could he take a fancy to me?"

The woman's words were full of irony.

Then she changed the subject: "Unlike you, sir, who has a fifth-rank peak woman by your side."

This?

The reason was sufficient.

Tang Wen straightened his back and found it hard not to agree with her statement.

Then, he asked about many things about the boat gang.

The beautiful woman told him everything she knew.

So, on the way back, there was another woman.

"He Zhou? Which Zhou? How did you get this name?"

Tang Wen chatted casually.

The beautiful woman sat carefully on the back of the White Tiger and replied, "The Zhou of drinking porridge. My parents' greatest wish was to live a life where they could have a bowl of porridge every day."

The name was very in line with this world.

Tang Wen: "Are your relatives still alive? I can take care of them."

The beautiful woman He Zhou: "There is also a younger sister who is a female Transcendent in the boat gang. I need you to help take care of her."

"Easy to say, just bring her back to the White Tiger tribe together." Tiger Cloud didn't want Tang Wen to keep talking to her.

"Uh." The beautiful woman lowered her eyes and didn't dare to say more.

Tiger Cloud glanced at her and hugged Tang Wen demonstratively and kissed him.

The beautiful woman saw it secretly: Tsk! It seems that this Tang Wen's life is not easy either.

Serving such a mountain king.

Glorious in front of people, suffering behind their backs.

While being kissed, Tang Wen took out an empty stone from his arms.

They swept across the major docks along the way.

Although they didn't rob openly, they also secretly plundered many treasuries.

Moreover, fifth-ranks always carry one or even two empty stones with them, and the things inside were concentrated into the empty stone in his hand.

The remaining empty stones were taken by Tiger Cloud to store supplies.

Mental energy probed in, and a closed space the size of a room appeared before him.

"This spear looks good."

Tang Wen took out a blue spear more than three meters long from it, and shook it with both hands, actually dancing out ice-blue spear flowers.

He stopped moving, but the spear flowers were still there, gradually falling as the White Tiger quickly left.

"This is? An ice spear?"

Since coming to Ganshan City, Tang Wen's energy has been focused on martial arts.

He didn't know much about the experts in the city, so he couldn't recognize whose weapon this was.

The White Tigers didn't need to be said; they didn't care about these things at all.

It was the beautiful woman He Zhou who opened her mouth with a complicated expression after being shocked: "This is Ice God Spear Li Yidan's spear. It is an oddity. Once injured by this spear, the ice energy will penetrate deep into the bone marrow through the wound. It is Li's famous weapon."

"Li Yidan? I seem to have heard of him." Tang Wen waved the spear excitedly, not paying attention to He Zhou's emotions.

He Zhou's eyes were even more complicated.

It seemed that Li Yidan was indeed dead.

Even though she already believed that Tang Wen and the others had killed their way over here.

But the physical evidence in front of her still shocked her!

Their boat gang's siding with the Huang family was not a decision made by the boat boss alone, but was agreed to by all their fifth-ranks.

At least most of them agreed.

Having sided, taken the Huang family's benefits, they had to face the anger of the Blackwater Gang and the Giant Rock Martial Hall.

However, at that time, they thought that the main force was the Huang family, and if there was trouble, the Huang family would be troubled first. The people in their boat gang would follow behind to gnaw bones and drink soup.

Now they hadn't smelled the meat, but they had been slaughtered like cutting melons and vegetables, and more than half of the experts in the gang had been killed.

"What is this again?"

Her thoughts were interrupted by Tang Wen, and she looked up to see a bright green bead, the size of a longan, with green waves seeming to ripple inside as Tang Wen shook it.

"You really didn't lie to me, sir. It seems that I really saved my life." He Zhou sighed and said, "This thing is a water-avoiding bead. Old Zhang and his wife showed it off before."

Water-Repelling Pearl, as the name suggests, when carried, it creates an air bubble around a person submerged in water. The size and shape of the bubble can be controlled with mental energy.

A very practical and wondrous item.

It's also beautiful in appearance; made into jewelry and given to a woman, it would surely capture her heart.

"Water-Repelling Pearl?"

Tang Wen resisted the urge to jump into the river to test it, played with it for a while, and then gave it to Hu Yun to play with.

Next, he took out half a large mushroom.

Seeing this, He Zhou smiled: "This thing can enhance physical fitness when eaten, but it requires long-term consumption."

Tang Wen shook his head. This little bit wasn't even enough for three dishes, how could he eat it long-term?

He Zhou: "Young Master, keep the root and plant it on the blood and flesh of exotic beasts, and it can grow back completely. However, this thing is a double-edged sword. After eating it, one's desires become very strong, but the effect of enhancing physical fitness is slow, often leading to more consumption and more weakness..."

Weakness?

Tang Wen smiled and carefully put it away.

With my physique, would I be afraid of weakness?
