Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

Just as Xiao Yun was marveling at it, the leading giant antler deer suddenly raised its head and glanced at the Crow King.

A strange grayish-white hue flowed within those jet-black eyes…

Xiao Yun froze, his pupils shrinking sharply.

Fortunately, it looked away the next second.

Was it a false alarm?

Xiao Yun looked on with surprise and uncertainty, wondering whether he should call off the hunting plan.

This giant antlered deer possesses a spiritual quality; it is so eerie and unsettling.

Giant antler deer are excellent prey and deserve a high rating.

I happened to know that they were passing by, which allowed me to ambush them here in advance. If I had missed it, I don't know if there would be another chance.

I've already used the team card, and I only got this one after scoring over 80 points. It's more about whether I can raise my score to 120. If I waste it, the awakening time for my class will be delayed again.

Moreover, the night of the full moon is only five days away...

If I don't become a professional, can I handle the chaos and danger of the full moon night?

A complex light flickered in Xiao Yun's eyes, but soon, all his complicated thoughts dissipated.

Some opportunities, once lost, will never come again...

Xiao Yun pondered for a moment, then looked at the latter half of the deer herd. The latter half consisted of female deer and fawns, which were not large and easy to hunt, making them relatively safe.

"Attention everyone, the herd of giant deer will arrive in less than 300 meters. The alpha male is too large to hunt!"

"The plan has been changed at the last minute. We'll release the first half of the deer herd and hunt the rest!"

The instructions were relayed to each squad via walkie-talkie and responses were received quickly.

"Group A received"

"Copy!"

Although some people still had doubts about Xiao Yun's decision, those doubts vanished when they saw the towering beast leading the way.

"What the heck? I feel like if this deer kicked me, it would send me to see my great-grandmother."

"Those hooves are bigger than both of my heads; one stomp of them could probably make me shit my pants."

"Shh! Quiet! The deer are closing in!"

thump -- thump -- thump --

The leading giant deer walked through the encirclement, spewing two blazing white jets from its fist-sized nostrils.

While breathing, it also sniffs the pheromones in the air to check for any unusual situations around it.

Fortunately, Xiao Yun and the others had applied a layer of plant sap to their bodies beforehand, and they chose to ambush from a downwind location, so they were not discovered.

thump -- thump -- thump --

The giant antler deer leader moved forward slowly and soon stepped out of the encirclement.

Everyone waited in silence, even their breathing stopped...

Just as half the deer herd had passed through, a resounding sword cry echoed through the forest.

A flash of silver light—that's the signal to act!

In just a moment, several fishing nets and railings turned this small open space into an impenetrable prison.

Four giant deer were trapped inside, two males and two females, one of the males being a juvenile.

shhhhh--

Before they could react, the arrows came hurtling through the air.

Although there was no communication, the team worked together very well. Three hypnotic blowguns were fired at the largest of the giant stags, while the remaining arrows were all aimed at the juvenile male stags.

"Yo!!!"

A mournful cry rang out, and in less than a second, the little giant antler deer was riddled with holes, its health bar instantly reduced to almost nothing.

laugh--

The hypnotic arrow struck the other three giant antler deer, and its effects slowly took effect.

"Yo..."

The three deer swayed in place as if drunk, struggling to shake their heads, trying to sober up.

However, the power of a D-rank item cannot be resisted by simply brute force.

puff-

A few seconds later, the three giant creatures crashed to the ground.

"Attack! One per team!"

Xiao Yun shouted and charged out first, heading straight for the largest male stag.

The giant stag's strength was beyond imagination. In just a short while, the largest male stag had regained some mobility and stood up unsteadily.

Its dark eyes blazed with fury as it roared at Xiao Yun, its muscles pulsating like springs, its hind hooves digging deep into the mud.

A dump truck weighing at least 800 kilograms is gathering power!

But Xiao Yun was not prepared to let the dump truck come over.

A glint flashed in his eyes, and an invisible shockwave spread in all directions.

[Magic Shock]!

The giant stag's posture, as if gathering its strength, was frozen in place, like a sculpture.

The next second, when it came to its senses, it had already lost sight of its target.

A shadow fell from above, and crimson flames burned fiercely on the blade of the mithril sword, replacing the sun and reflecting in its dark pupils.

For the first time in its life, the deer saw the color of death.

click -

The sound of hacking rang out, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Xiao Yun's sharp sword sliced ​​through the fur on the giant antler deer's neck and pierced into its flesh along the joints of its spine.

puff-

The spine was severed, and the massive body crashed to the ground.

Crimson blood gushed from the wound like a stream, forming a pool of blood on the ground within seconds.

The giant antler deer's health bar was rapidly decreasing, but it wasn't dead yet.

Xiao Yun stepped forward and delivered a final blow to the giant antler deer's chest.

laugh--

The knife severed the major artery, and steaming blood gushed out, splattering all over Xiao Yun.

"Yo—"

A final, feeble cry rang out, like a death dirge.

With its health bar nearly depleted, the Giant Horned Deer ceased breathing.

"Dead..."

Huang Haoran, who had been of little help, stared blankly at the giant antler deer, then looked up at Xiao Yun with a complicated expression.

"I've been carried to new heights by Brother Yun..."

Xie Yingjie shook his head and chuckled softly, feeling a mix of emotions.

From the moment Xiao Yun made his move to the moment the giant horned deer died, only a minute had passed.

Forget about helping, there wasn't even time to cheer or applaud.

"Well, this time I really won by doing nothing."

In his spare time, Huang Haoran crossed his arms and looked at his teammates who were dealing with two other female deer.

With the effects of hypnotic drugs and the restraining effect of ropes and nets, the overall hunting process went very smoothly. It was just a matter of the giant antler deer having thick hides and requiring a bit more effort.

The two does had almost no health left, and the hunt was nearing its end.

"Brother Yun, you can rest. We'll take care of the rest of the skinning and butchering."

"Yes, thank you for your help."

Xiao Yun responded, but did not put down his sword.

He stood atop the carcass of the giant antler deer, silently gazing at the real behemoth in the forest.

There were no angry roars, no sorrowful cries, only a silence as cold as the deep sea.

The giant beast's fist-sized, jet-black eyes gradually turned gray.

As a result, the world lost its color.

Only Xiao Yun's reflection remained...

The world changed in the next instant.

In the vast expanse, only a human and a beast stood silently.

"What...what kind of ability is this?!"

Looking at the gray and white world around him, Xiao Yun was shocked.

He instinctively looked in the direction of the giant antlered deer, only to find that the giant beast had already disappeared.

call--

The next instant, a muffled sound of wind blew in my ears.

Beneath the greasy, gleaming fur of the giant antler deer, massive muscles roared.

dong dong dong-

The deer's hooves vibrated the air, producing a booming sound like drumming.

Simple and straightforward, a straight punch!
