Another elite rat king’s bodyguard lunged towards Yue Zhong. Yue Zhong twisted his body and barely managed to dodge the attack. But at the same time, he moved his stinger gun and blasted away the brains of the elite rat king’s bodyguard.
Ji Qing Wu did not have as many weapons as Yue Zhong. Neither had she evolved as much as Yue Zhong. She did not even have the shadow steps skill that Yue Zhong had. But her swordsmanship skill was unparalleled, and her activated skill enhanced the deadliness of her blades. The Tang imitation sword in her hands wove a path of destruction, beheading an elite rat king’s bodyguard in a single stroke even though she was lower in level than that creature. The head of the elite rat king’s bodyguard flew through the air, and blood sprayed out in all directions from the wounds. A big experience point globe was immediately absorbed by her, allowing her to gain two levels with a single kill.
Despite killing an elite rat king’s bodyguard, Ji Qing Wu legs had not ceased moving all this while. In the span of a heartbeat, she was standing next to the last elite rat king’s bodyguard. The last elite rat king’s bodyguard immediately swiped its claws at her. With her supple and flexible body, she is able to avoid the death blow aimed at her head by crouching down. Once the claws had swiped over her head, she sprung up and beheaded the last elite rat king’s bodyguard with a single stroke.

Where is the experience orb?
Although these elite rat king’s bodyguard were level 26 mutant beasts, their combat powers were much weaker than the level 20 boss hunter. Their only advantage over the boss hunter was their unmatched sharp claws. Other than that, their strength and speed were way inferior to the boss hunter.
“Amazing! I had selected the right person to bring for this mission!” Yue Zhong saw the elegant way in which Ji Qing Wu had killed the two elite rat king’s bodyguards, and was very glad that he had chosen to bring Ji Qing Wu with him. Indeed, her performance did not disappointed him.
The four elite rat king’s bodyguards dropped a skill book and some [System] survival coins. Yue Zhong just kept all of them into his spatial ring, and continued to rush towards the Mutant King Rat like an arrow. The objective of this mission was to kill the Mutant King Rat. If the Mutant King Rat is not killed, the entire mission would be a failure, and there would be countless number of deaths among the humans even if the humans chose to retreat.
The Mutant King Rat saw that Yue Zhong and Ji Qing Wu had easily dispatched four of his bodyguards, and immediately quicken his pace. With a sharp howl, ten more elite rat king’s bodyguards turned back and rushed towards Yue Zhong and Ji Qing Wu.
Yue Zhong just took a glance at the approaching elite rat king’s bodyguards, and from his spatial ring, he rapidly received several hand grenades and threw them towards these beasts.
“Boom!” “Boomm!!” “Boommmm…!!!”
A series of explosions resounded throughout the room. The 10 elite rat king’s bodyguards had not even came close to Yue Zhong before they were caught in the explosion. For 6 of these creatures, all that remained of them are the stumps of their foot, while their bones and guts were spattered all over the area.
The remaining four of the elite rat king’s bodyguards faced the exact opposite situation. Their legs had been tore apart by the force of the explosion, but their life was preserved.
From a short distance away, the rapidly approaching Yue Zhong fired 4 more bone spikes at the surviving elite rat king’s bodyguards. Each bone spike were fired with incredible accuracy, and pierced a massive hole through each of the surviving elite rat king’s bodyguards’ brains. Four massive experience globes were absorbed by Yue Zhong.

Yue Zhong would not gain experience for using [non-System] weapons such as military weapons, grenades etc to kill any [System] creatures. However, he would gain experience orbs if he used the bone spikes as bone spikes were provided by White Bones and hence was part of the [System].
“Congratulations for reaching level 28. You have gain 2 points of stats points that you may distribute among your stats.”
“Increase stamina and agility!”
Yue Zhong quickly made his choice and continued to rush towards the Mutant King Rat.
The Mutant King Rat saw that Yue Zhong is very persistent in chasing after it, and continuously screamed a low pitched shrill cry.
From all directions surrounding the granary, more and more mutant rats continuously poured out from every nook and cranny, and each of them rushed towards Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong continuously waved his hands and tossed multiple hand grenades into the swarm of rats. A series of explosions decorated the room with splashes of mutant rat bones, innards and bones.
Ji Qing Wu stood beside Yue Zhong, and guarded him. For each mutant rat that manage
