Chapter 40: Enlightenment of the Rainstorm

Lin Zhen did not continue to track down the people who attacked him. Time was pressing and he felt that the captain's performance might not be ideal. If he continued to hinder them, the Demon Hunter Team would really not be qualified to enter Yilan County.

Picking up the Black Dragon Spear, Lin Zhen began hunting everywhere.

"With my current strength, it's not too difficult to kill F- and E-level monsters, but it's very difficult to kill D-level monsters, unless they are strong in attack but weak in defense. I can use my mental power to control the flying knife and maybe I can kill them instantly."

In addition to large animals such as cows and horses, the most common D-level monsters are poisonous snakes.

After mutating, poisonous snakes' main means of attack are their fangs and entanglement, but they move relatively slowly and have poor defense. Lin Zhen set his target on the poisonous snakes.

"Snakes like to live in dark, moist, and weedy places. Judging from the topography of the entire town, perhaps the northeast region is the most suitable place for snakes to survive."

After setting the goal, Lin Zhen began to move towards the northeast.

Along the way, Lin Zhen killed two mutant pigs, a mutant cat, and dozens of F-level ones.

He randomly put the severed ears and other things everywhere, and gradually came to the northeast of the town.

The northeast was the worst-hit area, with scattered meteorite craters everywhere, which had smashed the area into pieces and left almost no standing houses.

The ruins were covered with weeds. As soon as Lin Zhen approached, he saw several corpses.

The bodies lying on the ground were all soldiers from outside. They looked like they had just died. Each of them had a dark blue face, and they had obviously died of poisoning.

There was a corpse still entangled by a seven-meter-long snake. The snake's mouth was wide open and it was swallowing the corpse into its stomach. Only two legs were left outside.

"Sure enough, my estimation was correct. If there are snake mutants in this town, then this is where they gather. This is the snake den."

When the big snake is devouring its prey, it is at its most vulnerable. Lin Zhen made a lightning-fast move and stabbed the big snake's head with a gun. The tip of the gun twisted the snake's head into pieces.

The big snake was killed by Lin Zhen when it was halfway through swallowing.

"This type of venomous snake is considered a D-class mutant beast. It can be said to be the most ferocious among the D-class, but also the most vulnerable. As long as you find their weaknesses, it is not difficult to kill them."

"If it were an ordinary warrior, he would not dare to come to this snake den, but my Black Dragon Spear has the advantage of a long weapon, which can be said to be the best weapon for hunting snakes. Even if I encounter a more difficult snake, I still have a flying knife and excellent nerve reflexes. These are advantages that other warriors do not have."

Lin Zhen leaped into the ruins, his mental power released and his five senses became abnormally sensitive. After the snakes mutated, their bodies increased a lot and they had lost their concealment. It was almost impossible to launch a sneak attack on Lin Zhen.

The Black Dragon Spear in his hand shook, and the spear tip quivered. Lin Zhen then waved the spear in the ruins, causing dust to fly and creating a huge momentum.

With a move of strong wind, a field of weeds seemed to be pressed down by something and fell back in unison, revealing a number of large snakes hiding in the grass.

These ferocious snakes felt provoked and began to swim out from their hiding places, winding their way towards Lin Zhen.

"Come on, come on. I'm making trouble just to get you out. Every D-rank monster is worth 100 points. This is the most efficient place to earn points."

A big snake came to Lin Zhen first, raised its bucket-like body high, and stood up to two meters tall. The strong muscles after the mutation were enough to support it to make such a movement. It opened its bloody mouth and bit down at Lin Zhen from above.

Before the mouth even got close, the fishy smell already hit me in the face.

“Hit me!”

Lin Zhen shook his hand, and the Black Dragon Spear in his hand stabbed out like lightning. The big snake was not slow either, and it dodged in mid-air.

Lin Zhen is now performing the second move of the Nine-Layered Spear River, Heavy Rain.

Although Lin Zhen has not yet comprehended the artistic conception of the rainstorm, if he can be easily avoided by a snake, he does not need to practice it.

The tip of the gun trembled, turned in the air, and pierced into the snake's mouth!

"Puff!"

It entered the snake's mouth and stabbed out from the back of its head. Lin Zhen exerted force with his arms, and the snake's brain became a mess. Its huge body fell from the air.

He pulled the tip of the gun back, cut off the red tongue of the snake, and threw it into the backpack behind him.

"I got one hundred points! Killing a big snake is equivalent to all the gains I have made since entering the town."

After killing the first big snake, Lin Zhen looked around and saw that there were nearly ten big snakes surrounding him.

"Okay, these big snakes are just right for me to practice my rainstorm skills. I don't ask for it to be perfected in one go, but at least I want my spear skills to be a little bit better, and to have the initial power of a violent storm."

Lin Zhen brandished his spear and charged into the group of giant snakes. The biggest threat of these snakes was their sudden attacks, which were as fast as bullets. This was a big threat to warriors with nerve reactions above 0.01, but Lin Zhen was the abnormal one, whose nerve reactions had reached the general level, and it was difficult for these snakes to kill him with one blow.

If the big snake wants to use entanglement to strangle Lin Zhen, it will be repelled or even killed by Lin Zhen's violent attack.

Even if there is danger occasionally, Lin Zhen's flying knife will be used in time to save him from danger.

Under Lin Zhen's deliberate control, his understanding of gun skills improved rapidly. After all, he had studied gun skills for a long time in his previous life. Naturally, his speed this time was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Although the speed of killing the big snake was not very fast, a D-level mutant beast fell under his gun almost every ten minutes. This speed was beyond the reach of other warriors.

Gradually, Lin Zhen went deeper into the ruins. The dead bodies of large snakes lay behind him. The backpack behind him was filled with dozens of snake tongues.

“Swish, swish, swish, swish!”

There was a flash of strong light, and a big snake that had just appeared didn't even have a chance to fight back. Its head was beaten into a sieve by the rain-like spikes, and it fell to the ground and died.

"That's the feeling! That's the feeling! Just a moment ago, I seemed to have grasped a little bit of the artistic conception of a violent storm. As long as I can grasp this feeling, I will have mastered the second level of the Nine-Level Spear River."

"The second level of minor success is enough to fight against an early-stage general. When my mental power cannot be easily exposed, this is the basis of my ability to fight against opponents of higher levels."

After his rebirth, Lin Zhen's understanding of combat seemed to be much higher than in his previous life. The high proportion of genetic potions and the absorption of dark energy stones were transforming him subtly.

Without even having time to deal with the snake's tongue, Lin Zhen sat down on the spot, recalling his instant realization.

"In the Nine-Layered Spear River, the first two levels are violent winds and rainstorms. The goal is to deal a fierce blow to the opponent. The most important thing is not to retreat. Once you retreat, the violent wind disappears, the rainstorm disappears, the momentum is gone, and the power is naturally gone."

"When I faced these giant snakes, I was still afraid. I was afraid of their fangs and their death coils. These things could certainly kill people, but in the end, I still didn't believe in myself. As long as I believed in myself, there would be no chance for a mutated venomous snake to hurt me, no matter how violent the storm was."

"People are like guns, and guns are like storms. This is the most important thing."

"I have already lived my life again, and this life was earned in vain. If I am still so timid, then my rebirth will be in vain."

A few minutes later, Lin Zhen opened his eyes, picked up the Black Dragon Spear, and saw another big snake running towards him.

"Come and die!"

Lin Zhen exerted force on his feet and leaped forward like a cannonball, leaving a trail of afterimage behind him. He raised the gun in his hand and moved forward courageously!

A strong wind blew, and a heavy rain came! A figure passed by, and the big snake fell to the ground with a thousand holes in it, without even time to react!
