Chereads / Tempest of the Steel Mecha / Chapter 14 - The Fiery Devil Forest

Chapter 14 - The Fiery Devil Forest

Li Feng initially thought that after undergoing physical training, his beloved mobile suit training would follow next. But he was disappointed to find out that he was still undergoing self-training. According to Devil Jin, if it weren't for his poor foundation, he wouldn't have to waste a month. This left Li Feng feeling devastated. In school, his physique was definitely considered excellent and even if he joined the army, he wouldn't be considered subpar. However, he was given a subpar evaluation.

The second part of physical training mainly focused on adapting to the environment and physical combat, not piloting mobile suits in combat, but rather fighting on his own!

The training ground environment had disappeared, replaced by a primitive forest. Looking at the strange appearance of those trees, Li Feng's first reaction was that he was in a adventure movie, except that the cost was his life. If he made a mistake, he would really be dead. Although Devil Jin said that the situation was arranged according to his strength, Li Feng no longer believed it after going through the first stage. If he wasn't strong enough and didn't have too many attachments, he might not be able to hold on. As for the new machine, it was better to just run into a wall and die. Since he had already come this far, he couldn't give up, and Li Feng also vaguely felt that if he could really leave here alive, he would have unimaginable progress.

"Master, this is the Devil Forest, one of the planets conquered by our Maya civilization. The technological civilization here is relatively backward, but it has powerful combat capability. It is divided into two types of life forms: plant-based and animal-based. You need to live here for a week."

Xiao Jin's mechanical voice sounded.

"Oh, so it's plant-based and animal-based monsters. What are their strengths and weaknesses, and what about my equipment?"

He and Devil Jin were now at the entrance of the forest, and the sudden change to the outside world gave Li Feng a sense of freshness, but after a month of training, his curiosity about unknown things had been pushed to second place, and his top priority was survival!

"You need to discover the strengths and weaknesses of your opponents yourself. To put theory into practice, your weapon is only an alpha alloy knife, which is in line with the technological level of your planet. At the same time, your food system is open to you. If the nutrients you intake are insufficient, your combat effectiveness will decrease…"

"Stop, stop, I already know what you're going to say next!" Holy crap, decreasing combat effectiveness is just game over!

"That is a respectful wish for the master to pass the test."

The Devil Jin creature seemed to bow in respect as it flapped its wings, then shook its head a few times and disappeared, leaving behind an Alpha alloy blade on the ground.

Picking up the only weapon, Li Feng sneered at himself, this "servant," for as a master, he was truly unique in his artistic sense and boldness.

"The test begins. Please enter Devil's Forest within three seconds. Countdown begins: three…"

As soon as the voice rang out, Li Feng dived headfirst into the forest without hesitation. This damn machine really gave him no leeway, not even an extra minute.

As he dashed into the forest, his vision immediately darkened, and all contact with the outside world was cut off. Li Feng remained motionless, cautiously sensing everything around him. This was truly a test of his life!

Although he had not received any system training, he had read many books and watched many movies in this area. In such an unknown environment, the first thing to do was to find a safe place!

After a few seconds, Li Feng had adapted to the lighting conditions, which were indeed very dim and bottomless. These plants were all unknown to Earth, and were of various shapes and sizes. After a month of terrifying training, Li Feng slowly maintained his mental state at a suitable level, slowly leaning against a huge, nameless plant that looked like a green radish without branches or leaves. Of course, the uglier it was, the more he looked at it.

With one hand pressed on the plant, the other tightly gripped the alloy blade. Since Devil Jin had left the blade to him, it meant that his unarmed combat skills were probably insufficient, so he must not lose the blade!

In this month, apart from experiencing devilish training, he also developed the habit of thinking more. Devil Jin was a bit short-circuited, and many things could not be explained clearly, so Li Feng had to understand them on his own.

And sometimes, good judgment could reap many benefits. Li Feng also understood that in many cases, it was safer to use one's brain before using one's hands and feet.

The surroundings were dead silent, but a repressed breath and strange roars faintly emanated from deep within the forest. He did not know if it was an illusion or really existed, but this road would certainly not be peaceful.

Li Feng, who had suddenly stopped moving, dashed forward like lightning. The strange tree behind him opened its huge mouth without warning, and its sharp teeth snapped together with a piercing sound. In just an instant, Li Feng was soaked through. If he had not sensed the killing intent just now, he would have been a meal for the monster in front of him!

Knowing that there were plant-type monsters here, he had been careless just now. Theoretically accepted things are still subconsciously ignored when applied in reality.

He might not be so lucky next time. Damn monster!

Li Feng did not flee. He keenly noticed that there were no other monsters around him and the opponent did not immediately pounce on him. This was a rare opportunity to test his skills and perceive his opponent at the same time!

He gripped his alloy knife tightly and slowly shifted his position. The "hammer monster" still exposed its sharp teeth and slowly twisted its body, its feet buried in the soil, but not completely immobile. Its speed was quite slow, but its attack just now was not slow. Li Feng had already grasped the key.

He squatted down slowly and threw the stone he had picked up at the opponent's eye. At the same time, his body started moving, and the alloy knife cut fiercely across the body of the hammer monster, not seeking to accomplish anything, but to avoid any mistakes.

It was a strange sensation. The alloy knife cut through the rubber-like skin of the opponent, and green liquid oozed out. But it was definitely not a fatal wound.

The injured hammer monster became angry and rushed at Li Feng with its teeth and claws bared. But for Li Feng, it was a good opportunity. Obviously, like Devil Jin said, the bodies of these monsters were very strong, but their intelligence was limited. Although their attacks seemed crazy, they were full of flaws. Moreover, while advancing, Li Feng noticed a very special place below the opponent's big mouth. And even in this craziness, the hammer monster still tried to protect it and shield it with its chin.

Before, Li Feng would have had no choice but to wait for death if he encountered this kind of monster. His training had actually been very childish. But after a month of devil training, Li Feng could basically face death and visual shocks calmly. Instead of retreating, he leaned forward before the hammer monster's two paws came down and used his head to bump the opponent's big mouth. His alloy knife stabbed in without hesitation. Perhaps experiencing this kind of life and death moment for the first time, Li Feng let out a low roar, pouring all his strength into it and stabbing fiercely.
