Erdan let out a scream, slammed on the brakes, and jumped off the car, running back as fast as he could.

Before the two men, a four-meter-long tiger with orange and black stripes was devouring a ewe.

The ewe was torn into pieces.

After that, Erdan glanced at it and his stomach started churning. He started vomiting.

Although Erdan had eaten mutton and seen sheep being slaughtered, he was still a child.

But seeing this scene at this moment also made me feel a strong sense of physical discomfort.

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't seem to feel anything after seeing it.

The pair of praying mantises she saw mating and eating each other disgusted Zhang Xiaoyuan.

"Roar!"

When the tiger-like beast saw humans appear, it spread its paws, stuffed the mutton behind its back, and became wary.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was somewhat surprised that this tiger-like beast did not attack humans upon seeing them, but instead guarded its food!

strangeness.

"Roar!"

When the tiger-like beast saw Zhang Xiaoyuan walking towards it, it roared, its eyes flashing with ferocity, and stood up, assuming an attack stance.

Tiger Beast: A mutation of the Siberian tiger. Level: 16.

Ability Values: ...

"Hungry Tiger Roar? What kind of skill is that?"

Upon seeing Tiger Beast's intermediate skill in the data panel, Zhang Xiaoyuan's expression turned strange.

[Hungry Tiger Roar: While the user is hungry, all their stats double, but their stamina depletes faster. Intermediate skill.]

"What a strange skill."

Zhang Xiaoyuan muttered to herself, waving her fist in the air, hoping to unlock a new skill this time.

Even the low-level ones.

It's better than having nothing at all.

"Roar!"

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoyuan was not intimidated and was still moving forward, the tiger-like beast roared angrily, and then...

They then raised a cloud of dust at Zhang Xiaoyuan, trying to blind her.

"Huh? What's with this monster? It's acting a bit strange."

Zhang Xiaoyuan frowned slightly as she looked at the data panel to see that the monster's intelligence value wasn't high, so it was unlikely that it would think of plotting and setting traps.

Just then, Zhang Xiaoyuan noticed some noises coming from around her.

The sounds of "bang bang bang" rang out one after another.

A dozen soldiers in combat uniforms appeared, firing their guns at the tiger-like monster.

"Ow!"

Hit in the body, the tiger-like beast screamed in pain and, ignoring its prey, ran away into the distance.

"Use smoke grenades and flashbangs at the 9 o'clock position. Don't let this monster escape again!"

A slightly older soldier, in his thirties, spoke into the walkie-talkie.

Then Zhang Xiaoyuan saw thick white smoke suddenly appear in the direction the monster had fled, obscuring the view of both people and the monster.

Several long, bright flashes appeared amidst the white smoke, and the tiger-like beast let out a terrified howl.

"on!"

The soldier in his thirties made a gesture, and the other soldiers followed suit, concentrating their fire on the smoke.

"Young man, this is not a place for you to linger. If you want to get there, take a detour."

The soldier glanced at Zhang Xiaoyuan and waved.

"That won't do, you'll let my prey escape."

Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled slightly and did not leave.

"Look."

"what?"

The captain of the soldiers took out a cigarette, but before he could light it, he heard a shrill roar coming from the smoke.

boom!

The air vibrates.

The soldiers who had gathered to fire were unaware of what was happening.

He felt a jolt in his heart, and was thrown away, falling to the ground, his life hanging in the balance.

"Roar!"

The smoke then dissipated.

The figure of the Tiger Beast appeared in front of Zhang Xiaoyuan and the captain.

However, the appearance of the Tiger Demon Beast has changed drastically.

Its once robust body has now become dry and brittle, as if it has lost all its moisture.

Saliva dripped continuously from its half-open mouth, and its scarlet tiger eyes seemed ready to devour its prey.

Tiger Beast (Hungry): All stats are doubled when hungry.

Gained the temporary skill, "Tiger Descending the Mountain".

[Tiger Descending the Mountain: The stronger one's own imposing aura, the greater the additional bonus gained when launching an attack. Intermediate skill.]

"Has your strength doubled?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan whispered.

Although the tiger beast's condition was worse at this moment, its aura had doubled.

It clearly triggered a state of hunger.

"Damn it, this tiger has mutated again!"

The captain, his face grim, growled and fired.

Although every shot hit its mark, not a single wound was left on the monster.

"You'd better get out of here, or there might be another corpse here."

The captain, with a stern face, shoved Zhang Xiaoyuan, telling her to leave immediately.

He pushed for a long time, but Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't budge an inch.

"Hey kid, didn't you hear me?!"

The captain was about to shout something when he saw Zhang Xiaoyuan clench her fist and point it at the Tiger Demon Beast.

"What are you doing?"

The captain was puzzled.

But the next moment, he understood Zhang Xiaoyuan's intention.

A harsh sound broke through the air.

The captain only felt something flash before his eyes.

The tiger-like monster, which was pouncing, was still in mid-air.

The next moment it broke into two pieces.

Blood and internal organs were spilled all over the ground. It didn't even make a sound before falling to the ground and becoming still.

"Dead, dead?"

The captain was stunned.

They spent a whole day chasing the monster, and it just died from a single gesture?

"Who the hell are you?!"

The captain asked with a serious expression.

This young man looks like a high school student, but his strength is terrifying.

"Just a recent high school graduate."

Zhang Xiaoyuan waved her hand and excitedly ran forward.

"Finally, the skill has been revealed."

Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled.

Since leaving the battlefield of the gods, he has killed three magical beasts.

As a result, not a single skill emblem dropped.

He even thought that emblems no longer dropped in the outside world.

[Tiger Hunt: An instinct rooted in the bloodline of the king of beasts. In the wild, the user's strength will be enhanced to varying degrees depending on the environment. Intermediate skill.]

"Huh? A new skill?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was taken aback.

When I checked the information of this tiger monster using the data panel, I did not detect the [Tiger Hunt] skill on it.

This surprised Zhang Xiaoyuan.

"It seems that the skills dropped by killing monsters are also related to the monster's race."

Zhang Xiaoyuan guessed, and then put away the skill emblem and beast core.

As for fur...

They've gotten so thin, their complexion isn't good at all.

As for the other parts...

Zhang Xiaoyuan glanced at it and realized that as a young person, she didn't need any supplements.

Perhaps we should leave it to that soldier captain.

The soldiers lying on the ground look badly injured; let's give them some treatment.

"I'm such a good person."

Zhang Xiaoyuan sighed and walked back to the motorcycle.

"Hey, let's go."

Zhang Xiaoyuan shouted to Erdan, who was hiding to the side.

"Oh, coming right away."

Erdan's hands trembled slightly as he pushed the motorcycle.

When did magical beasts appear in this forest?

He and some friends just walked there yesterday!

Is it really okay to have a close brush with death?

"Young man, wait a minute!"

The soldier captain's voice rang out from behind Zhang Xiaoyuan.
