Chapter 275 Emergency Mission Begins
On the contrary, the mutated deer was caught off guard and a wisp of spiritual energy struck its eyes, causing it to let out a shrill cry.
The sound was so grating that everyone frowned.
Black liquid flowed from the mutated deer's eyes, making it look even more ferocious, and its movements became sluggish due to the pain.
Han Xiao seized the opportunity and launched a rocket formed from his supernatural power, which quickly flew toward the injured eye of the mutated deer. The rocket was extremely fast.
However, the mutated deer was quite fast, and unfortunately, it still couldn't dodge the rocket, which grazed its injured eye.
A deep, bone-revealing wound appeared, causing it to howl in even greater agony.
The others weren't idle either; after all, they were taking advantage of the situation to their advantage. Chen Tao and Huo Yang were also constantly firing sarcastic remarks from the sidelines.
Since the body's defenses are difficult to break through, the only option is to try other areas.
With the combined attack of Gu Xinyan and the other two, the mutated deer gradually became unable to resist and staggered backward.
Han Xiao didn't give it a chance to escape; bursts of flame shot straight at the mutated deer.
Although it wasn't directly burned, the continuous high temperature still made the mutated deer very uncomfortable, and even its fur was scorched and curled up.
This beating made the mutated deer extremely agitated. With its gear-like antlers raised, it charged at the group once more, seemingly trying to break through the invisible protective shield.
Black lightning erupted from its horns once more, even more fiercely than before, but unfortunately, it wasn't as lucky this time.
Because everyone's vigilance against it had reached its peak, just as the lightning it released was blocked by the protective shield...
Yan Xiyun brandished her longsword, seized the opportunity when the mutated deer charged, and stabbed it through the eye.
The mutated deer never expected the final outcome to be like this; the intense pain left it no time to think about anything else.
After the intense pain subsided, he collapsed to his knees, limbs limp. His once fierce, dark eyes had lost all their luster.
Black liquid gushed out from the wound, mixing with the unidentified liquid on the ground around it, emitting a pungent odor.
Seeing the mutated deer fall to the ground, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They had finally taken down this troublesome mutated deer.
To be on the safe side, after putting the mutated deer away, they hurriedly headed out of the forest.
The journey was more difficult than anyone had anticipated. Han Xiao, who was now rushing to the base, was very glad that he had invited Boss Gu and the others last night.
Otherwise, I would probably be injured or dead by now, and I wouldn't be standing here in good health.
Gu Xinyan and the other two were marveling at how this apocalypse truly was a holy land for monster hunting and cultivation! There were so many places to hone one's skills, no less than those ancient secret realms.
Moreover, these mutated plants grow in successive generations, as do the mutated beasts, and their combat power is top-notch.
So it's practically perfect for a training ground! We could definitely develop it further in the future.

About a week after the store opened, more and more people came from all directions, including ordinary people from nearby bases.
The store has a constant queue from morning till night.
Half a month after the store opened, teams from several major bases and the official base arrived one after another, and as a result, countless tents of all sizes were set up outside the store.
It looks spectacular at first glance, just like the center of a camp. Not to mention there are countless big shots guarding it. So, in the entire apocalypse, this place is probably the safest.
And everyone went out hunting during the day, since the mutated deer they hunted and the mutated pigs Lu Yunting's team hunted that day had earned them a lot of dimensional coins.
Not only mutated beasts, but even mutated plants were exchanged for a good price, which instantly excited everyone, and they started to team up to hunt every day.
Every evening, everyone would spontaneously gather together for a bonfire party and have a great time.
It was as if all the scenes of struggling in the apocalypse had vanished at this moment.
Especially after everyone went up to the second floor of the store, they were no longer living numbly, but were filled with hope and a positive fighting spirit.
Time passed slowly, and Xiaobai still hadn't returned. With the mission nearing its end, Xiaobai remained completely silent.
However, thinking about what Xiaobai said when he left, Gu Xinyan felt relieved and guessed that Xiaobai would be back in the next couple of days.
Just as she was muttering to herself, Xiaobai finally returned the night before the mission ended.
Gu Xinyan, who had just finished washing up and was getting ready for bed, was suddenly surprised to see Xiaobai appear in the room.
"Xiaobai, you're back! I thought you wouldn't be back until tomorrow!"
After saying that, thinking that it had returned so late, it guessed that it hadn't managed to get the urgent task, so it spoke up again to comfort it:
"We'll go home when the mission starts tomorrow. It's okay if we didn't get the emergency mission. We haven't been back for a long time. I wonder if Ellie and Aoyu are used to living with us."
Listening to its host's rambling, the little white dog, who was originally going to pretend, suddenly froze. Wait, shouldn't it be asking about the results of its battle?
How did it become that it failed to secure the emergency mission? That shows a complete lack of confidence in it.
However, seeing its host's comforting expression, Xiaobai couldn't help but speak up in defense.
[Host, Xiaobai managed to snag an urgent mission. The reason he's late is because the main system hasn't been issuing any urgent missions lately. Xiaobai originally thought he'd missed out this time.]
Just as Xiaobai was about to return, the main system suddenly issued an urgent task, which caused the delay. Otherwise, he could have returned during the day.
After Xiaobai finished speaking, he shook his head smugly and then continued:
[Hehe! Host, you don't know, there were other little masters there at the time, but none of them were as fast as Xiaobai. As soon as Xiaobai grabbed it, he rushed back without stopping!]
Since our mission here ends tomorrow, we'll head straight to the emergency mission plane!
Gu Xinyan: ""
Snatched it? It actually managed to snatch it? I saw it come back without showing off, and I thought it had failed. I didn't expect it to actually succeed!
