In the boundary area around the Monolith, Morin and Kohina hadn't found many Gastrea throughout the day.
After all, the effect of the Monolith array made of Varanium metal wasn't just for show. Even though Gastrea were bloodthirsty and violent creatures, they instinctively wanted to stay away from the magnetic field emitted by Varanium metal, rather than masochistically staying at the edge of the Monolith, which contained a large amount of Varanium metal.
The small number of Gastrea gathered at the edge of the Monolith were less likely to be eyeing the Tokyo Area and more likely to be brainless insect-type mutated Gastrea. The few Gastrea that ran to the middle area outside the Monolith were weak groups, moving to the middle area outside the Monolith more to avoid being hunted by stronger Gastrea.
Therefore, on the first day, besides encountering a Type [II] armored Gastrea, the other few Gastrea that Morin and Kohina encountered were all weak Type [I] Gastrea. After Morin and Kohina won, they explored and hunted in the more outer areas!
...
Three days later, in an area more than thirty kilometers away from the Tokyo Area.
"Chirp chirp"
The two kodachi wielded by Kohina lightly crossed the obstacles on the ground. The light of the blades flashed out instantly, directly severely injuring the ferocious Gastrea in front of her.
"Gaa!!!"
Following the flash of the blades, the splattering black blood forcibly dyed the ground black. The four-legged crested pig-snouted Gastrea, which looked more than three meters tall and had the build of an elephant, let out a strange cry but still stared with a pair of scarlet eyes, its sharp claws directly grabbing at Kohina.
As a Type [II] Gastrea, the regeneration level of this crested pig-snouted monster was also Type [II], already capable of withstanding some of the damage from ordinary Varanium metal alloy weapons. Unless its head was cut off and the remaining corpse burned, it still possessed considerable danger. Merely being hit a few times by Kohina's refined Varanium metal kodachi only made this Gastrea even more furious, lunging at Kohina more ferociously.
"Take a look at my new weapons..."
Kohina dodged a few attacks, her eyes already slightly red but not truly turning into red pupils. Instead, she held the two super-Varanium metal kodachi, which she had obtained just a few days ago, in a reverse grip.
Buzz!!!
Amidst the light buzzing sound, the two super-Varanium metal kodachi drew arcs of light, cutting open the crested pig-snouted monster's torso as if it were nothing. The thick skin and wings that had provided some resistance before were as fragile as tofu in front of the super-Varanium metal alloy blades.
The crested pig-snouted monster had tasted its power. Not only did it lose a claw in just one strike, but several deep, unhealable wounds were also inflicted on its body, and black blood sprayed out as if it cost nothing. In its chest area, at the location of a wound that almost ripped it open, some of the crested pig-snouted monster's strange internal organs could even be seen. It was just a little bit away from hitting its vitals.
The crested pig-snouted monster, letting out a sharp, miserable howl, hadn't even had time to escape when a bright flash of blade light directly passed by, and the next moment, the crested pig-snouted monster's head flew up and landed on the ground!
"Well done!"
Seeing Kohina land easily, Morin, who was holding the SCAR automatic rifle and firing in bursts, gave her a thumbs up. The firearm in his hand then fired a series of bursts, and several Gastrea that had just poked their heads out of the forest were instantly headshot.
The location that Morin and Kohina had found now had no trace of Type [I] Gastrea. All the Gastrea, including the crested pig-snouted monster just now, were in Type [II] form. Even in the forest that looked similar to a primeval jungle, the Gastrea that smelled the strange bloody scent were still continuously approaching, and the low roars and piercing cries were endless.
However, Morin wasn't nervous. The SCAR automatic rifle in his hand was even set to precision burst mode.
One refined Varanium metal bullet after another directly hit the heads and even the eye sockets of those Gastrea. Even if they didn't kill those Type [II] Gastrea with a single shot, after taking one or even several Varanium metal bullets squarely in the head, these Gastrea couldn't possibly maintain their full combat power. When they then encountered Kohina, this violent loli wielding a pair of kodachi, they were basically taken down in just a few strikes.
Morin had specifically let the crested pig-snouted monster go to give Kohina some practice. As a result, after Kohina used her new weapons, it was directly killed in less than ten seconds of fighting!
"Brother! Let me take them down!"
Having easily killed the crested pig-snouted monster, Kohina excitedly held up her new weapons. Seeing two more Type [II] Gastrea rushing out of the forest, she even took the initiative to ask Morin for permission to fight.
"Kohina, be careful. Retreat immediately if things go wrong!"
Seeing Kohina's highly excited expression, Morin shook his head slightly but still agreed, although he reminded Kohina.
As soon as Morin gave his consent, Kohina, who couldn't help but cheer, directly swung her blades and charged towards the several Type [II] Gastrea. She directly cut a Gastrea that looked like a skinned frog in half head-on.
Unfortunately, Kohina wasn't facing a single Type [II] Gastrea. The other several Type [II] Gastrea, which looked like armored rabbits and multi-legged spider crabs, didn't pay any attention to the skinned frog Gastrea falling dead. Instead, their scarlet eyes stared fixedly at Kohina, and they all roared and cried as they charged towards her.
In almost the blink of an eye, Kohina's petite figure was obscured by the bodies of several Gastrea!
"?!?"
Morin, who hadn't expected Kohina to go all out at once, twitched his mouth and couldn't help but grip his Tang sword, ready to go forward and assist.
Seemingly sensing Morin's intention, the next moment, those several Gastrea all let out mournful cries and roars. An armored rabbit that had just charged the fastest was directly decapitated and sent flying, while the centipede-turtle-like Gastrea that was charging in second place seemed to want to retract into its shell. The black, blood-stained shell on its back clearly had a metallic luster, but unfortunately, it couldn't withstand the super-Varanium metal blades and was directly pierced in the head by Kohina, who had just landed.
The multi-legged spider crab originally wanted to spray spider silk, but the strands of silk couldn't lock onto Kohina, whose speed was unbelievably fast. By the time this crab-like multi-legged spider saw Kohina approaching, it was cut into pieces in a mere ten seconds.
In less than a minute, Kohina, unleashing the power of the Mantis Factor, directly danced a dance of death that brought both herself and her enemies close to the brink!
...
"Careful!!!"
Morin, who had just breathed a sigh of relief seeing Kohina's overwhelming victory and was about to lecture her, felt his hair stand on end due to the dangerous sensation from his [Enemy Search] skill. While shouting, he directly swept his SCAR automatic rifle towards the direction of the danger.
Clang clang clang
A huge black shadow pounced out of the forest. The Varanium metal bullets hitting its body only sparked, not harming the shadow itself at all. However, Morin's now-skilled shooting direction, directly aimed at the shadow's head, forced the shadow to deflect its head, resulting in a slight decrease in its pouncing speed.
In the instant the lightning-fast black shadow was hindered by the Varanium metal bullets, Kohina had already reacted. Her eyes turned directly red, and she retreated rapidly.
Bang!!!
Kohina had barely retreated thirty meters when a large Gastrea, at least thirty to forty meters long and wide enough to accommodate a small car, slammed into the ground at her previous location.
It was an exceptionally ferocious Gastrea, its body arched slightly like a snake. Its entire body was covered in dark brown scales, and a black bony mask made it look particularly terrifying. Its two massive pincer-like claws looked like the size of small trucks. Anyone could imagine the feeling of being crushed by them. Along its snake-like body, multiple centipede-like appendages clawed at the ground.
Seeing this disgusting monster, Kohina, who had just retreated, couldn't help but grip her newly acquired kodachi tightly, her pair of scarlet eyes filled with vigilance and caution.
"Kohina, retreat quickly!"
Seeing the Gastrea that seemed to be a mix of crab, snake, and centipede features, looking at first glance like a Zerg unit from StarCraft, Morin's face immediately turned somewhat grim. He warned loudly, "That's a Stage [III] Gastrea!!!"
