A Level-45 Elite Swamp Rock Crocodile was lurking in the muddy water filled with fallen leaves and the stench of rotten leaves. Only its mouth, which was the same color as the pool, and a pair of earthy yellow eyes, which were similar to the color of the mud, were exposed.
In its line of sight, about ten meters away from it, there was an unfamiliar creature about half a meter tall. It looked like a large bug, with two blade-like pincers on its head and a layer of red carapace on the surface of its body.
Although this creature looked very unfamiliar, as the legendary Swamp Hunter, the Swamp Rock Crocodile had never been afraid of the other creatures in this area, even the five-meter-long Swamp Python was not afraid of the Swamp Area's overlords.
Except … for the adventurers who carried all kinds of weapons and never relied on their true strength to fight it!
Half of the Swamp Rock Crocodile's eyes floated above the surface of the water as it carefully looked around. After confirming that there were no humanoid creatures that only knew how to rely on external objects within its field of vision, it began to slowly dive into the muddy water, swimming toward the "prey" not far away!
The red bug seemed to be lacking in vigilance. It only knew how to continuously use its six blade-covered legs to dig at the ground, as if it was looking for something to eat.
Only when it got close did it seem to notice that something was wrong. It turned its head to look around, but it could not detect the danger hiding in the muddy water at all.
"Boom!"
The Elite Grade Swamp Rock Crocodile suddenly exerted its strength, leaping up from a meter underwater. Its four limbs continuously jumped a full five to six meters, and it opened its bloody mouth wide as it pounced toward the bug!
"Pu!"
However, when its four-meter-long body landed, it only saw a dark red flash in front of it.
The beetle-like creature that it saw as its prey actually leaped forward for some distance as it jumped, causing its determined pounce to miss.
Not only that, but the red bug quickly flew toward the distant shrubbery, leaping away!
How could this be!
The Swamp Rock Crocodile's simple AI did not have much time to think. It immediately moved its four webbed and scaled feet, slapping the ground as it chased after its prey!
However, when it chased after the leaping and running "prey" and bypassed a bush, its pair of earthy yellow eyes could not help but freeze.
In front of it, there were five red insects that looked almost the same, but four of them were a size smaller than the one it was chasing before!
While it was still in a daze, the five red bugs with blade-like pincers all jumped towards it and landed on its flat and wide back.
"Pu!"
“-980！”
The Swamp Rock Crocodile felt a sharp pain on its back. The thick layer of mud that it was so proud of, its tough skin, which had excellent defense, seemed to have been cut open by something.
No, it wasn't just a hole!
Then, the pain that was slightly weaker than the first one came four times in a row.
Above its head, the numbers "-466," "-498," "-655," and "-494" appeared almost at the same time!
"Roar!"
The Level-45 Elite Swamp Rock Crocodile immediately went into a frenzy. As the overlord of the food chain in the 50-meter swamp at the southern edge of the Sunset Swamp, it had actually been injured by these small, insect-like creatures!
The enraged Swamp Rock Crocodile began to turn its body frantically, twisting its tail, trying to shake off the few insect-like things on its back.
However, the six limbs of these insects were like blades, deeply piercing into its scaly skin. Two extremely hard, horny machetes continuously slashed at it, and ear-piercing screams came from the mouthparts of its mouth.
“-1530！”
"-760!" "-698!" "-735!" "-704!" …
These little insects were simply rascals. After using their blade-like pincers to cut open its hard skin, they would not stop slashing at the same spot where the wound was.
The hard, mud-covered skin on its back had strong defense, but if this layer of skin was cut open, the flesh inside did not have much self-protection at all.
As such, under these continuous slashes, it could feel the blood on its back flowing non-stop.
From another perspective, this Level-45 Elite Swamp Rock Crocodile, which focused on defense, had more than 30,000 HP, but in the short span of five seconds, it had already lost one-third of its HP.
Finally, it instinctively thought of a solution. It rolled its body in the bushes.
As expected, with this, those big red insects could no longer stick to its back. They were all thrown off and jumped away.
But what it didn't expect was that this rolling exposed its white belly that didn't have much defensive power. Then, a few extremely agile red bugs scratched the edge of its belly a few times.
“-1938！”
− 907, − 898, − 934, − 876 …
The feeling of more pain than before and the non-stop bleeding, as well as this extremely agile opponent, caused the originally angry brown eyes of the Swamp Rock Crocodile to finally show panic.
Immediately, it began to roll its body, turn its head, and quickly ran toward the swamp not far away.
And the five red insects jumped onto its back again, continuously attacking its wound.
However, this time, the Swamp Rock Crocodile did not roll around in a frenzy. Instead, it ran toward the swamp.
As long as it entered the swamp, it could even defeat a Level-48 Swamp Python. If these little things dared to enter its home ground, it would definitely let them know its power!
The Swamp Rock Crocodile moved with all its four limbs, wanting to return to its home ground. When its HP was already less than a quarter, it was finally only one step away from its home ground.
However, this one step away …
Clearly, it was impossible to crawl over, because …
Bang!
After a dull sound, a spinning bullet with a layer of faint electricity on its surface, carrying with it a high temperature that burned the air, shot into its back!
“-676！”
“-3255!”
Yellow weak-point damage, a finishing blow!
When the Swamp Rock Crocodile's HP was empty and it finally fell less than three meters away from the swamp.
Among the five Bladed Beetles, the largest Level-34 Elite Bladed Beetle flashed with the light of leveling up. Its body, which was already a size bigger than its Normal-grade companions, increased a little, and its level also increased to Level-35.
However, in comparison, the light of its leveling up was far less important than the light of the leveling up of the young male player wearing a camouflage combat uniform and holding an M110 sniper rifle on the other end.
Killed Swamp Rock Crocodile (Level 45 Elite). Contribution: 5%. Obtained Experience: 430.
[Congratulations, you have leveled up. Current Level: Level 45!]
Level 45!
Finally, Level 45!
Feng Luo stood up from the bush with the M110 in hand, an unconcealable satisfied smile on his face.
Over the past half a month or so, he had spent a lot of energy leveling up. Although he did not choose to continuously do hunting missions because he needed to increase the levels of his "beetle pets," he had finally leveled up to Level 45 today!
On Feng Luo's shoulder, 24K, which looked a little comical after being painted with camouflage paint, had grown a size bigger. Its body was now about the size of half a fist.
Now, it was on Feng Luo's shoulder, moving its little head and commanding two scorpion-like Gatherer Beetles to crawl towards the Swamp Rock Crocodile's corpse. Meanwhile, the Scout Beetle on the edge of the swamp slowly flew above Feng Luo's head to monitor the surroundings.
At the moment, 24K was already Level 29. As a Boss Grade pet, the experience it needed to level up was a little high.
Fortunately, it was already 80% Level 29. If it worked a little harder, it should be able to reach Level 30 today or tomorrow.
What was more worth mentioning was that 24K had learned many ways to cooperate with Feng Luo through its AI during the past few days of farming monsters with Feng Luo. This made it easier for Feng Luo to command the five Bladed Beetles to set traps and surround them. It could even replace Feng Luo in commanding the small beetles.
Of course, now was not the time to talk about this.
