'Boom!'
The sound of a bullet being shot spread in the forest breaking the quietness while frightening a lot of birds above them.
A hot bullet had flown out of Shu Wei's gun, injuring the hand that was about to snatch Xiao Ning away.
The bullet first penetrated the surface of the giant hand but instead of stimulating blood- a strange smell as if rotting fish spread out.
Shu Wei frowned at the sudden emergence of the smell while trying to pinpoint the hand which had suddenly disappeared.
[Your ability: Green Tea Bitch has been activated.]
[ Reducing Warrior Whaleion Ashyaan's IQ...40/100...reducing...20/100. ]
'Haaa!' Xiao Ning took a huge breath while smiling. Her ability only activated automatically when in danger.
She had directly laid on the ground delivering a chance for Shu Wei to shoot- as well as preventing the giant's hand from snatching her away.
Being the closest one to be attacked, Xiao Ning had clearly seen the giant who ambushed her.
It was definitely not an evolved 'human' as she assumed.
The appearance of this huge giant was more identical to an evolved whale, it precisely had an additional pair of hands and feets rather than fins like a human, and its height was as Shu Wei predicted 7 meters or more.
As she was thinking, Xiao Ning didn't forget to quickly climb onto a tree opposite of Noah.
Staring at the forest with intent even lowering her breathing sound to focus.
This kind of creature/whale presumably was sensitive to sounds.
Xiao Ning's hands weren't idle either. She had already clutched her knife between her teeth, ready to strike the giant at any moment.
Shu Wei had let the gun in her hand stare down, with the gun's muzzle pointing against the ground.
The huge giant did not show itself, it was hiding behind the enormous trees around them.
But Xiao Ning and everyone here could already feel a pair of eyes glaring at them every few minutes.
A sharp rustling of someone running sounded, dissipating the quietness.
At this moment, a huge figure became visible. It was the giant attempting to ambush Shu Wei.
"Noah, activate!"
"I'm trying!"
Without waiting for the giant to strike first, Xiao Ning leapt down, hooking herself right onto the left shoulder of the giant.
[You are under the effect of 'Knife Maniac' for three seconds!]
Xiao Ning hastily held the knife off her mouth, slamming it into the 'very distinct' blue throat of the giant.
'Pooch'.
A blue liquid splashed all over Xiao Ning from the throat of the giant, it was surprisingly easy to pierce through a giant's skin with a kitchen knife + Noah's bluff!
The huge giant shrieked in pain causing Xiao Ning's ears to buzz.
At this juncture, Noah had also jumped onto the right shoulder of the giant jabbing his wooden stick into its eye.
The giant shrieked louder at the loss of one of its eyes resulting in Xiao Ning and Noah to both fall off the giant's shoulders.
This means that both of them had lost the opportunity to stab the giant from above.
Maybe the huge giant was also aware of this fact, as it stopped shrieking and posed a fighting stance.
Xiao Ning stood in front of the giant. Her whole upper body dripped with the wet blue sticky substance.
Noah had already run off some distance away from the giant. She was the bait. Again.
Xiao Ning smiled widely, taunting the giant with her hands.
Yes, she was showing the giant her middle fingers.
"Fuck your mom, pussy giant! Come at me!"
A yell of anger sounded from the giant's mouth as it rushed toward Xiao Ning.
The giant rushed at her with the desire of smashing her body towards a tree and Xiao Ning without the confidence of a hero, chose to run in a 'certain direction.
Just as she was about to be scratched to pieces by the giant's hand, Xiao Ning fell flat face on the ground rolling her body sideways avoiding the huge hand coming toward her.
The giant's hand which had a strong fishy smell slid past Xiao Ning's head creating a strong enough friction to tear off some of her hair.
Between Xiao Ning dodging and the giant's attack missing, Shu Wei appeared.
With Xiao Ning's intervention, Shu Wei had already shifted to a tree waiting for an opportunity to strike.
This was her opportunity.
Shu Wei jumped down, she was now directly behind the giant, the back of the head of the giant being clearly visible.
'Bang!'
She didn't hesitate at all and shot the giant right into his head.
'Pooch..'
The giant let out a mournful howl before falling to the ground with a huge 'pop'.
Xiao Ning stood up from the ground, her hands crossed behind her head while- looking back at Shu Wei with a smile:
"Good shot, Shu Wei!"
Although the giant was murderous it still followed the evolution of whales. The brain was always the sweet spot to kill.
Xiao Ning walked over with her knife, stabbing the huge giant three-four times in the head.
It was to make sure that 'it' was completely dead.
Xiao Ning silently picked up some of the slimy blue goo coming out of the giant's head smearing on her body.
Even the birds ran away when this giant attacked, this blue slimy shit could definitely keep the poisonous insects away.
Noah and Shu Wei also came over and Noah stared at the huge 'corpse' in front of him: "So, who gets the 10 points?"
Before Xiao Ning could reply, a 'ding' sounded in her head.
[Announcement: Trialists 661 is awarded 20 points as the first ones to slay a Whaleion!]
[Announcement: Trialists 624 is awarded 20 points as the first ones to slay a Whaleion!]
[Announcement: Trialists 829 is awarded 20 points as the first ones to slay a Whaleion!]
Before the three of them could react with joy, a bright green light shone in front of Xiao Ning's eyes- blinding her for a while.
As she slowly opened her eyes again, everything was the same except that the body-
The body of the giant had disappeared!
