Chapter 403: International Language
Xiang Ning thought about it and knew that he couldnt do the same thing to the crocodile. How could he have the strength to damage such a large beast with a simple punch?! He also knew that once the cultists undergo such transformations, their rationality would usually be reduced as well.
That was a fatal weakness, as Xiang Ning preferred fighting against enemies like that. Once they had lost all rationality, he could just use Keen Observation and toy with them.
But when he saw the vulture mutant turn and lock gazes with him, Xiang Ning instinctively knew that it hadnt lost all rationality. It was somewhere in the middle. Xiang Ning wasnt an idiot that would fight against an unknown enemy if it wasnt necessary. That was why he was observing the fight and hoped that the Sawtooth would give him valuable intel on the vulture mutants true strength.
And the Sawtooth didnt disappoint Xiang Ning as it exploded out of the rubble. It was humiliated and angry. How could its food win against an alpha like it?! Impossible!
Thus, they continued clashing. The Sawtooths incredible physical prowess was displayed as it ran at the vulture mutant at full speed. Every single step sent a shockwave that Xiang Ning could feel even from so far away. Its speed was nothing to scoff at. But what was truly terrifying was that the vulture mutant just stood there and held out its hand to block the Sawtooths charge.
He was pushed back for almost thirty meters before the two of them stopped. Xiang Ning felt that the vulture mutants legs must be made out of metal. He wanted to find one to experiment on if he had the chance. He was now interested in research, after having spent so much time with Dong Qianyi and Chen Tianhua. But his area of interest was slightly eccentric.
Xiang Ning thought that it would take more than ten minutes to kill the beast, but who knew the vulture mutant would voluntarily enter its mouth?
The surviving members of the cult that had been hiding near some rubble were confused as well.
Wait, whyd Lord Vulture enter the beasts mouth?
Do you really think Lord Vulture is the same as others?
Lord Vulture is one of the few people who doesnt lose their mind after transforming.
All of them were still worshiping and admiring their master, even though they had been frightened by his actions just now.
Lord Vulture is the candidate wholl inherit Lord Wraths will!
Wrath was one of the leaders of the Seven Deadly Sins. His strength was immeasurable and he possessed an incomparably sturdy physical body. There were even rumors of how he fought a Beast King with just his own physical strength.
Even though Lord Vulture had transformed, his mind was still intact. While the Sawtooth wasnt as strong as him, its defense still easily placed it within the top ten. Even after it had been buried by a collapsing building, not a single wound was found on its body. The hide and scales of a Sawtooth were legendary!
Xiang Ning scratched his chin. Arent there a lot of products made from the hide of crocodile-type beasts? Look at the size of this beast! Its even the alpha of this area, I can fetch quite a fortune from its hide.
Just as he was thinking about earning money, the Sawtooth was turning and twisting in pain. It was panickingthe vulture mutant hadnt intended to die in its guts!
A sharp pain flashed through its body as the sound of cracking bone and tearing flesh emanated from its body. The beast had been howling ever since its food had voluntarily shot into its body. The sound of excitement was heard from within the beast as the vulture mutant went into a rampage.
Xiang Ning could only imagine the bloody scene within the beast. How could that mutant be so crazy? Just as he thought that the mutant would burst forth from the belly of the beast, the vulture mutant came out from its anus instead! Xiang Ning felt disgusted.
He suddenly saw that the vulture mutant was holding an orb in his hands. It was a beast core! Xiang Ning was contemplating stealing it when he saw the mutant open his mouth. Xiang Ning had once heard of someone swallowing an ostrich egg whole, but had always thought of it as a myth. Today, he learned that it was in fact plausible because he saw the beast core being swallowed whole. Xiang Ning clearly saw it going down the mutants throat. The mutant suddenly locked gazes with Xiang Ning again as he rubbed his palms together, his ten-centimeter-long claws bloody and glistening.
Xiang Ning chuckled. He was worried that the mutant might not understand his language, so he gave it a middle finger instead. It was sign language that was spoken internationally!
Fury Points +999
Looking at the Fury Points he had just earned, Xiang Ning knew that his location had been exposed. He immediately activated Disguise and ran out of the building with Shadowmist Ghost Step. He had escaped not a moment too soon, as the mutant crashed into the building in the next instant.
He had crashed through the wall like a bull. He saw that Xiang Ning wasnt there and thought that his target had gone into hiding. The mutant launched an indiscriminate all-out attack as he tried smoking out Xiang Ning. But unbeknownst to him, the boy was already approaching the dead Sawtooth.
Xiang Ning had set his eyes on the beasts hide and was sure it would sell for quite a lot. While he didnt urgently need money, it would never hurt to earn more. Maybe one day he could use the money he earned here to live a comfortable life with his sister after he retired.
As for the other beasts, all of them had been scared away after the Sawtooth was killed.
Xiang Ning carefully flayed the best parts of the beast. He wanted to take it all, but most of it was too damaged. Then he saw that the mutant was still hell-bent on destroying the house. He thought about it and took out the Devourer, stabbed it into the Sawtooth, and let it start feasting.
It felt good to take rewards without putting in any effort.

Run away! No one wants to fight a crazy madman!
