However, the one who was knocked away only suffered minor injuries, lying on the ground clutching his abdomen, panting in pain.
Lin Yuan stepped forward and helped him up.
The hunter struggled to his feet, his voice filled with complex emotions.
"I'm sorry, I yelled at and hit you guys before, but I never expected you to save me..."
"My name is Jimmy, thank you."
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, only then realizing that the voice sounded somewhat familiar.
It's the same person who beat and scolded the common people before.
Lin Yuan didn't have many thoughts.
Under the influence of the Three Laws, most of the Upper Beings do not regard the Common People as human beings. It is the Three Laws that truly persecute the Common People.
Only Mark's hunters and the female doctor in the lighthouse who saved the dust people were somewhat better off.
Of course, most importantly, this person did not provoke him.
"Can you still run? If you can, get to the convoy."
"how about you?"
"I have more important things to do."
Lin Yuan turned his gaze to the battlefield, but the more important thing was actually to acquire source energy points.
But in Jimmy's eyes, his figure suddenly seemed much taller.
At this moment, the common people became comrades-in-arms.
"...come back alive."
Jimmy handed over the gun with a heartfelt tone.
Lin Yuan felt nauseous and couldn't help but shiver.
"Holy crap, get out of here right now."
Jimmy limped away.
Lin Yuan continued searching for a suitable target to kill.
Soon his eyes lit up as he saw several snake-dogs that had lost their ability to move.
They had wounds on their bodies from the chainsaw sword.
It seems that these snake dogs were severely injured by the gravity-body mech piloted by Mark.
"Yeah, I can totally follow up and finish them off!"
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan inserted the gun into the snake-dog's open wound and fired several shots, shattering its core.
Then it ran to another snake-dog and continued shooting.
[Defeat the Devouring Beast, Source Energy Points +10]
[Defeat the Devouring Beast, Source Energy Points +10]
[Slay the Devouring Beast...]
The energy points more than doubled quickly, reaching 246 points.
Great, let me enjoy the experience all to myself!
Lin Yuan could barely contain his smile.
Quickly calm down, suppress your emotions, and avoid excessive emotional fluctuations that might attract the attention of the snake or dog.
Just as he was having a great time finishing off his enemies, a snake-dog rushed out from behind Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan was prepared for the sight of the snake-dog's enormous hand.
With twice the physical strength, he easily dodged with a backward jump.
While finishing off the enemy, he didn't forget to observe his surroundings.
The snake-dog, having failed in its first attack, pounced again.
However, this level of attack poses no threat to the Sharingan.
Lin Yuan dodged the attack and, taking advantage of the snake-dog's pause, created some distance between them.
My turn!
He raised the gun, aimed at the tentacles, and prepared to pull the trigger.
A gravity-based mech charged over and slammed into the snake dog, sending it flying.
"What are you doing? It's dangerous here, get out of here!"
A clear female voice came from inside the gravity body.
"Erica?"
Hearing this energetic voice, Lin Yuan was taken aback.
Erica is the youngest core member of the Wilderness Hunters and is in charge of gravity training at the Lighthouse.
Despite being the cutest girl in the squad, she used the heaviest firepower when fighting the 'Cecap Beast'.
The reason I have a deep impression of her is that although Erica is the youngest among the hunters of the Lighthouse, she is the "oldest" one of them.
"Hey, you know me?"
Erica was somewhat surprised to hear Lin Yuan call her name.
Lin Yuan suddenly frowned and reminded him.
The next moment, Erica, who had just reacted, was pounced on by the snake dog.
Then another snake-dog rushed over and tore at the gravity body's left leg.
She immediately began to struggle anxiously.
"Get out of here! Get out of here right now!"
Lin Yuan frowned and raised his gun to aim at the blue orb of light on the lower back of the snake dog.
The snake-dog let out a miserable howl; the Spirit Seed was severely injured and lost its strength.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Erica felt a lightness in her hand, quickly pushed the snake-dog off her, and then shot and killed the snake-dog that was tearing at her.
"Phew, I'm saved."
Erica was relieved, but also somewhat incredulous:
"How did you do that? The Devouring Beast, which we could only deal with by piloting gravity vehicles, was actually killed by you with a gun."
Lin Yuan smiled and said frankly, "Actually, it's not difficult. Just make sure every bullet hits the same spot."
"what???"
The genius hunter was completely dumbfounded.
Erica's eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief:
"Wait, wait, wait! Was what you just said human language?"
Chapter 6 The Death of the Devouring Beast Shocks Mark
While the two were still talking.
The dust people accompanying the team rushed desperately toward the convoy with the last batch of supplies.
A snake-dog was chasing after them.
"Help, help!"
Faced with a life-or-death crisis, the Dust People, their faces filled with fear, unleashed their last ounce of potential as they desperately fled.
"Oh no! A Devouring Beast is catching up!"
Erica's expression changed, and she rushed forward to stop the pursuing snake-dog.
"Come on, you're the fifth one today!"
The snake-dog suddenly sped up, turned around, and pounced on Erica.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Erica's expression changed, and she raised her arm to block.
"I'm here to help you!"
"Bang bang bang bang!"
At the same time, gunshots rang out.
Taking advantage of the moment when the snake-dog leaped into the air, Lin Yuan predicted its trajectory and fired continuously, each shot hitting the spirit seed on its right abdomen with precision.
The screech of the snake-dog rang out.
The gravitational object was knocked to the ground, but Erica felt the force on her hand lessen considerably.
On the right side of the Devouring Beast's abdomen, there was a wound the size of a coin.
Erica opened her mouth in surprise: "My God, you really hit the same spot."
"Don't get distracted! The Devouring Beast is coming again!" Lin Yuan reminded him in a low voice.
Not far away, several Devouring Beasts suddenly darted out.
Lin Yuan fired the first shot while simultaneously dodging an attack from a snake-dog.
"They can communicate through glowing tentacles on their heads, which are also their feeding organs; they can prioritize attacking those areas if necessary!"
Erica is probably only at that age and hasn't been on missions for very long. Lin Yuan was afraid she wouldn't know this, so he reminded her.
"Hey, what you're saying sounds just like what those veterans say."
Erica shot the Devouring Beast, rendering it unable to move, and said with some surprise.
Thanks to Lin Yuan's help, which diverted the snake dog's attention, she wasn't as disheveled as she had been in her previous life's story.
At this moment, a gravity-based entity, using roller skates, burst out of the sandstorm and pierced through the snake-dog that was attacking the two.
Lin Yuan glanced at it.
The gravity body has a dark red paint job and holds a chainsaw sword in its right hand.
This shape is Mark's gravity body.
Mark's voice came from the gravitational body: "Nonsense! Didn't you take Penny and leave? What are you still here for?"
Lin Yuan continued shooting, killing the last snake-dog, and said:
"I've brought her back to the team, Captain Mark, you can rest assured."
Erica spoke up in defense of Lin Yuan:
"Captain, don't blame him, he's really amazing! He took down the Devouring Beast with just one gun, 'whoosh whoosh whoosh'!"
"And he just saved me."
"I've already witnessed 4077's marksmanship in the spaceship wreckage."
Captain Mark's expression softened slightly, and he said to Lin Yuan:
"However, you have no obligation to fight the Devouring Beasts. Look at how many hunters have died here. Aren't you afraid of dying?"
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "But only those who are not afraid of death will not die."
In this world, if you don't dare to kill Devouring Beasts, don't dare to acquire Source Energy Points to improve your strength, you will die even faster.
"If you're not afraid to die, you won't die... Ha, what kind of twisted logic is that?"
"The Devouring Beast has begun to regenerate and will soon revive. We must leave quickly..."
Captain Mark smiled, about to say something, when suddenly his expression changed, revealing an incredulous look.
The snake-dog on the ground, whose spirit seeds had been severely damaged by Lin Yuan, had begun to turn into blood.
