Chapter 33: Wei Wufu’s Egg

Translator: 549690339

“Mutated creatures are rarely seen outside, so why are there so many here—encountering two of them just on this beach.” Lin Shen knew that he couldn’t retreat at this time; once he did, that would be the end of him.

Wei Wufu, that ruthless man, with that swift Tang Sword, couldn’t fight off the mutant creature. The Supersonic Gunman definitely wasn’t a match either.

If the Supersonic Gunman died, he would be like meat on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered at will.

“Fire!” Lin Shen gritted his teeth as he issued the command.

The Supersonic Gunman didn’t hesitate and pulled the trigger. Bullets roared out of the barrel towards the mutant creature’s head.

While firing, the Supersonic Gunman narrowly dodged the creature’s pitchfork by a hair’s breadth.

The mutant creature tilted its head and dodged the bullets from the Supersonic Gunman. Its speed was almost equal to the gunman’s; it was only by fortune that the gunman was a top-tier speed-based pet, otherwise, it would have been difficult to avoid that pitchfork.

“Continue.” Lin Shen reached into his pocket and took out something, throwing it with all his might to Wei Wufu. Although they had only exchanged blows once, Lin Shen knew the Supersonic Gunman was definitely not a match.

Speed was the Supersonic Gunman’s strongest weapon, and yet, it still didn’t give him an edge against the mutant creature. He was certainly far inferior to the creature in other aspects and stood no chance in a fight.

Wei Wufu caught what Lin Shen threw to him, a Crystal Base blade shaped like a green leaf. He immediately pinched the blade between his fingers and stared adamently at the mutant creature while whispering softly, “Let’s go.”

Lin Shen paid him no mind. Even when Wei Wufu had a pet and a Crystal Base Level Tang Sword, he was no match for the mutant creature. Now with only a Leaf Blade, it would be odd if he could actually defeat the mutant creature.

“Find the right moment, shoot its eyes, and leave the rest to me,” Lin Shen ordered.

Wei Wufu frowned slightly. He couldn’t understand what Lin Shen meant by that. He didn’t think Lin Shen himself had any capability to harm the mutant creature.

Wei Wufu said nothing. He was well aware that Lin Shen couldn’t get far. If he and the Supersonic Gunman died, Lin Shen could only die as well. Escaping or not, it made little difference.

The mutant creature, having avoided the bullet, swung its pitchfork in a sweeping motion at the Supersonic Gunman’s waist. The gunman hadn’t even had a chance to fire a second shot, which showed that the creature still held a slight advantage in speed. Its speed value could be a perfect twenty.

Of course, like Death Powder, it’s possible the speed value could have broken past the limit of twenty, reaching the transcendent twenty-one. But Lin Shen felt it wasn’t as fast as Death Powder and probably didn’t reach twenty-one.

The Supersonic Gunman could only quickly retreat while firing another shot, which, once again, was aimed at the mutant creature’s face.

This was all deliberate from Lin Shen, keeping the Supersonic Gunman’s aim fixed on the mutant creature’s face.

At such a close range, the bullets still missed as the creature turned and dodged, swinging its pitchfork in a wide arc and aiming again for the Supersonic Gunman.

“Now!” Lin Shen suddenly shouted, and the Supersonic Gunman, instead of retreating, rushed forward, getting almost in front of the mutant creature and firing a shot at its face.

Almost at the instant the bullet left the barrel, the creature’s pitchfork swept across the waist of the Supersonic Gunman, sending him flying to the side, his waist clearly twisted and his alloy spine appeared to have been broken.

Due to the close distance, the creature was forced to twist its neck to dodge the bullet.

A streak of green light flashed across the air and struck the mutant creature’s left eye, which was dodging the bullet.

The ruby-like eye was pierced by the Leaf Blade, causing the mutant creature to painfully reach out and grasp at the Leaf Blade stuck in its eye.

Wei Wufu saw Lin Shen suddenly charging at the mutant creature at the same time, his speed even faster than the bullet fired by the Supersonic Gunman.

Even seeing Lin Shen’s speed, Wei Wufu still didn’t believe that Lin Shen rushing over was a good decision.

He could tell that Lin Shen was someone who lacked Base Mutation, not knowing what method he used to temporarily burst forth with that kind of speed.

Let alone the fact that his speed wasn’t much faster than the mutant creature’s, even if he were faster, his strength wasn’t sufficient to harm the creature. Charging at it was no different from courting death.

Especially when Lin Shen forcefully pressed his finger against the mutant creature’s waist, Wei Wufu thought Lin Shen’s finger would definitely break, and the mutant creature would be completely unharmed.

Dong!

Lin Shen’s finger thwacked into a depression in the mutant creature’s waist, producing a dull sound and Lin Shen’s pained grunt.

Just as Wei Wufu predicted, Lin Shen’s finger bones were crushed, warping into a chillingly grotesque shape.

And as Wei Wufu thought, the mutant creature was completely unscathed. Even though Lin Shen attacked its weak point, he still couldn’t injure it in the slightest.

“`

But what happened next left Wei Wufu standing there, stunned.

The mutant creature had suddenly stopped moving, standing there with one hand on a fork and the other pinching the Leaf Blade, like a robot that had run out of power abruptly.

“It hurts like hell!” Lin Shen hissed in pain, his twisted fingers swollen like little radishes.

Wei Wufu’s gaze upon Lin Shen had become somewhat strange, as if he was seeing him for the first time.

He had seen Lin Shen use Acupoint Sealing on the Supersonic Gunman, but he had never expected that even this mutant creature could be sealed. What kind of strength that was, Wei Wufu had never heard of.

A human without Base Mutation was actually capable of such speed and incomprehensible techniques. Lin Shen was quite something.

“Don’t move, come here,” Wei Wufu said, seeing Lin Shen take out a vial of medicine from his pocket and about to apply it to his fingers.

Lin Shen had grown accustomed to Wei Wufu’s way of speaking and couldn’t be bothered to ask anymore, dragging his heavy body over to Wei Wufu’s side.

“Squat down, hand,” Wei Wufu commanded.

Lin Shen understood his intention, squatted down, and stretched out his injured fingers in front of him.

Wei Wufu’s fingers flashed, and he vigorously stroked Lin Shen’s injured finger, causing a crisp crackling sound that made Lin Shen howl in agony.

“Apply the medicine,” Wei Wufu ordered.

Lin Shen’s screams ceased as the instant pain ebbed away. Surprisingly, his finger hurt less, and he felt much better.

Looking down, he noticed that his twisted finger was now straightened.

Without saying anything more, Lin Shen poured a few drops of the medicine onto his injured finger but kept his gaze fixed on the mutant creature.

Fortunately, the mutant had not reached the formidable level of Death Powder. Its acupoints were sealed and it could not move, but Lin Shen did not know how long the effect would last.

His gaze shifted to the Supersonic Gunman, his spine broken. Although not dead, he could no longer even crawl, let alone shoot.

Clenching his teeth, Lin Shen moved in front of the mutant creature and tried to pull the Leaf Blade out of its eye, but the creature was gripping the blade tightly, and Lin Shen couldn’t budge it no matter how hard he tried.

“You… have no Base Mutation…” Wei Wufu asked, looking at Lin Shen with a puzzled expression.

He had been certain that Lin Shen had no Base Mutation, but now he was beginning to doubt his judgment.

“I don’t,” Lin Shen said, letting his hand droop, and looking at Wei Wufu, “Your hands can still move, can you come and finish it off?”

“Can’t kill it, here,” Wei Wufu fished out something and tossed it to Lin Shen.

Lin Shen caught it and saw that it was an egg.

Yes, an actual egg, not a Base Mutation Egg.

Base Mutation Eggs have metallic or crystalline shells, but this egg looked like a chicken egg or duck egg with a grey-white shell, thin and fragile. It was smaller, slightly larger than a pigeon egg.

“I’m not hungry…” Lin Shen thought Wei Wufu was suggesting he eat the egg. Not that he was hungry, but such a small egg wouldn’t fill him up even if he were.

“Don’t eat it, use it to Base Mutate,” Wei Wufu instructed.

“Use this egg to Base Mutate… Are you sure…” Lin Shen was full of question marks. How could one Base Mutate with this thing? He felt as if Wei Wufu was joking, but Wei Wufu’s expression showed no sign of teasing.

“Want to live, use it to Base Mutate,” Wei Wufu pressed, noting Lin Shen’s skepticism.

Lin Shen still found it unbelievable that he could Base Mutate with this thing, and even if it were possible, it would be a lengthy process—taking at least three to five days, or maybe even half a month, with the longest taking one or two months. In a place like this, how could he Base Mutate?

Most likely, before he even finished Base Mutating, the effects of the Acupoint Sealing would wear off, and the mutant creature would kill him with a stab of its fork.

“Very strong, very fast, difficult, success means survival, failure means death,” Wei Wufu explained once more.
