The entire chat channel fell silent in an instant.
No one spoke for a long time.
At this moment, everyone could tell that the Level 1 Mutant Ferocious Beast was incredibly powerful. Even Level 2 experts were utterly helpless against it!
"Wait a minute! I just checked, and Qin Feng is ranked fifth."
"Oh, really!"
After a while, someone else piped up in the chat.
Seeing this, everyone switched to the ranking channel.
Qin Feng was intrigued and also switched to the ranking channel...
[Ranking of Newbie Village Level]
1st place: Liu Xuan, Level 3.
2nd place: Longshan, Level 2.
3rd place: Wu Yong, Level 2.
4th place: Yu Wen, Level 2.
5th place: Qin Feng, Level 2.
6th place: Gu Ming, Level 2.
7th place: Lei Jue, Level 2.
...
10th place: Liu Yuan, Level 2.
Huh!
He really was in fourth place, and that Liu Yuan dropped to tenth place.
Qin Feng mumbled to himself.
Strange!
How come someone said he was eleventh just now?
Right, those people checked his ranking after the announcement. However, he had killed five Steppe Gray Wolves consecutively afterward, pushing his ranking up significantly. In just a few minutes, those people didn't notice the change.
Realizing this, Qin Feng suddenly understood.
Afterward, he switched back to the chat channel, where everyone was expressing amazement.
"Oh my god! Qin Feng is really ranked fifth."
"So fast! Five minutes ago, I saw him as eleventh, and now he's fifth!"
"Yeah! Qin Feng is amazing!"
At this moment, Lei Jue's avatar flickered.
He also started speaking.
Lei Jue: "After all, Qin Feng's ranking is higher than Liu Yuan's. Speaking of which, a Ferocious Beast that can gain prestige for the first kill can't be weak, right?"
Lei Jue: "Some people said earlier that Level 1 Mutant Ferocious Beasts aren't that strong, it's really funny!"
His words were mocking, making it clear that he was talking about Liu Yuan.
The comments section became somewhat tense.
After all, Liu Yuan was also a Level 2 expert and ranked in the top ten.
No one dared to speak recklessly.
However, Lei Jue was ranked seventh, higher than Liu Yuan, so he didn't fear him at all.
Liu Yuan naturally saw Lei Jue's words.
However, he didn't respond; instead, he quietly left.
At this point, he had lost all face and couldn't stay in the chat channel any longer.
The chat channel remained awkward for quite some time, with few people speaking.
Just as everyone felt the awkward atmosphere, another person's avatar flickered.
"Brothers, my leader Liu died, and three teammates also died. I'm the only one who escaped, sob! Sob!"
"Wait, the one above, are you from Liu Yunchang's group?"
"Yes! Almost everyone in our group is wiped out. If it weren't for my speed talent, I might have died too. Sob! Sob!"
"Oh my god! Is the Tusktusk Wild Boar so terrifying? Five of you, one Level 2 expert plus four Level 1 experts, even if you can't beat a Level 1 Mutant Ferocious Beast, can't you escape?"
"The one above, you really don't know how terrifying Tusktusk Wild Boar is. Its strength is even more terrifying than a Level 2 Ferocious Beast!"
"Oh my god! Stronger than a Level 2 Ferocious Beast!"
"Hiss! That's too terrifying!"
Everyone was amazed.
The survivor continued, "Everyone, I'm alone now, and my arm is injured. I'm really panicking! Is there any team that needs people? Please take me with you! Sob sob!"
"Where are you? Is the Tusktusk Wild Boar near you?"
"I'm forty miles south of Newbie Village. The Tusktusk Wild Boar is not far away. But it hasn't chased me. Are you, sir, coming to take me?"
"No! I just want to know the location of the Tusktusk Wild Boar to avoid it as much as possible!"
"... ... ..."
"... ... ..."
A group of people expressed their speechlessness.
Qin Feng's eyes lit up.
In the chat records, the survivor had revealed the location of the Tusktusk Wild Boar.
It seemed like his opportunity had arrived!
The Tusktusk Wild Boar was a Level 1 Mutant Ferocious Beast.
Killing it would not only grant him energy but also allow him to extract attributes. Moreover, the energy provided by Mutant Ferocious Beasts was two to three times that of regular ones.
More importantly, the Tusktusk Wild Boar had killed four humans.
Once Qin Feng found the Tusktusk Wild Boar, he could locate the four corpses and extract some new talents.
Excited at the prospect, Qin Feng hurriedly headed in the direction of the Tusktusk Wild Boar...
At the same moment, on the outskirts of the Newbie Plains, by a riverbank.
A fierce battle had just taken place here.
An ugly-looking giant frog had been chopped to death on the spot, blood and green fluid flowing everywhere.
The air was thick with the scent of blood.
This giant frog was a Level 2 Ferocious Beast.
At the moment, three people stood next to the frog's corpse, each with a proud expression.
One of them was Liu Xuan, the only one who had awakened a C-grade talent this time.
He was also the first in the Newbie Village to reach Level 3.
To Liu Xuan's left stood a sturdy man.
His name was Wu Yong, a professional boxer on Blue Star.
After coming to this world of slaughter, he awakened a D-grade talent—Strength Frenzy.
To Liu Xuan's right stood a heavyweight guy carrying a giant shield in his left hand.
His name was Longshan, a professional sumo wrestler on Blue Star.
After entering this world of slaughter, he awakened a D-grade talent—Physique Frenzy.
All three were outstanding figures in the Newbie Village.
Their powerful alliance made them the strongest group among all the teams, advancing rapidly.
Currently, Liu Xuan was ranked first on the level leaderboard, Longshan second, and Wu Yong third.
"The energy provided by this Level 2 Ferocious Beast is much more than that of a Level 1 Ferocious Beast!"
At this moment, Liu Xuan looked at the giant frog's corpse at his feet, revealing a satisfied smile.
Wu Yong nodded, "Yeah! I just received 14 points of energy. Now I'm at Level 2 (276/300). As long as I kill two more Ferocious Beasts, I can reach Level 3. By the way, Longshan, how's your progress?"
"I'm at Level 2 (291/300)!"
"Damn! Longshan, as long as you kill one more Ferocious Beast, you can reach Level 3. The second-place Silver Chest in this newbie upgrade reward belongs to you!"
Longshan laughed, "That's not necessarily true! There's always someone better, and there are always higher levels!"
As he spoke, he opened the leaderboard channel.
Upon seeing it, he was stunned.
"Darn! Ten minutes ago, Qin Feng was still ranked eleventh. In just a while, he's already ranked fifth!"
"What?!"
Liu Xuan and Wu Yong were shocked and quickly checked the rankings.
Once they checked, both of them were astonished.
"Darn! Qin Feng is leveling up so quickly!"
"No more talking! Kill monsters! Kill monsters! Let's level up quickly and not let this guy catch up!"
This sudden realization brought urgency to the three, and they hurriedly left...
On the other side, Qin Feng, following the address from the chat records, rushed towards the direction where the Tusktusk Wild Boar appeared.
With the effect of his speed talent, his travel speed was extremely fast.
Half an hour later, he finally arrived near the Tusktusk Wild Boar's haunt.
His powerful sense of smell allowed him to catch a faint whiff of blood in the air.
