PFC Chapter 120 Provocation
Chapter 120 Provocation
As the group moved forward, a loud shout suddenly came from the area, which was as bright as day. Qin Fen couldn't help but stop the car and stick his head out.
"Are you from the military region? I am Qin Fen from the 25th Team of Ability Users of the Fenghua County Military Region. This is my identification!"
Qin Fen shouted and pulled an ID card from his pocket.
The person in front didn't say anything, but jogged over.
He glanced at Qin Fen's certificate, nodded to his companion, and then indicated that it was approved.
The other guards put away the chains and fences on the ground, their eyes sweeping over Qin Fen's car.
"I heard that a young master has appeared in your Fenghua County to participate in the monster-clearing work on Fenghua Mountain. May I ask who it is? Could you come out and meet him?"
Qin Fen slammed on the brakes, and a young man, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, suddenly jumped out in front of the car, gleaming silver in the headlights.
"What's wrong with you? What if I get bumped into by your sudden appearance?!"
Qin Fen rebuked him coldly.
"Hehe, getting bumped into means I was unlucky, I won't blame you, but now it seems I'm quite lucky."
The young man stood tall and looked up at the moon, which was obscured by dark clouds, and said calmly.
"nerve!"
Qin Fen cursed and slammed the horn.
"Hehe, it seems you're just a driver, not that person. Let me guess who that person is?"
The young man spoke to himself as he walked towards the car.
The soldiers guarding the surrounding area remained silent, seemingly unfazed by the sight, though they looked at Qin Fen with pity.
'Tsk, being targeted by this madman, things are about to get interesting. I wonder if they'll fall for him.'
The young man walked to the passenger seat, glanced at Ishida, and blinked in confusion.
"Huh? What's that tooth here?"
"You ride on the horse!"
Enraged, Ishida reached out to grab the young man's collar, but the man turned and left.
"Oh, a little girl, it can't be."
The young man glanced at Julia and said indifferently.
"Hmph, you think it's a little kid? I'm your great-aunt!"
Julia shouted, "She's not a child, you know!"
The young man smiled faintly. He was just a kid; he wouldn't bother with him.
"Then it seems like it's you."
The young man's gaze lingered on Zhang Xiaoyuan, a fighting spirit flashing in his eyes.
"Do you dare come down and have a match?"
"You dare to challenge Brother Yuan?!"
Ishida said loudly, his tone laced with sarcasm.
"Um?!"
The young man's gaze turned cold. When Ishida met the young man's eyes, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his heart turned cold.
In a panic, Ishida swayed and plopped down in his seat.
"Are you OK?"
Seeing Ishida's predicament, Qin Fen did not laugh, but felt a pang of anxiety.
Although he didn't look directly at her, his body seemed to sense the danger and was forced to tense up.
"Hmm? You're not answering me, are you scared? Speak up!"
When the young man saw that Zhang Xiaoyuan did not reply, his expression immediately turned ugly, and he let out a low growl.
Embarrassingly, five minutes later, he still hadn't received a response from Zhang Xiaoyuan.
This made the young man feel extremely aggrieved. Just as he was about to take action, he heard a strange sound coming from inside the carriage.
"Whoo~"
"Whoo~"
"..."
"Damn it! You tricked me, sleeping right in front of me!"
The young man was furious, feeling that he had been tricked by Zhang Xiaoyuan. He roared and immediately threw a punch at Zhang Xiaoyuan.
Although it was somewhat unethical of him to launch a sneak attack on Zhang Xiaoyuan, he couldn't hold back any longer.
However, just as his fist was about to touch Zhang Xiaoyuan's face, he saw Zhang Xiaoyuan's palm move. She simply pushed forward and grabbed his fist.
Click!
The sound of bones cracking rang out, sounding exceptionally clear in the darkness.
"You...you're not asleep?"
The young man asked in a trembling voice, his face flushed.
It wasn't the pain in his hand that bothered him, but rather the realization that Zhang Xiaoyuan was just playing him!
"I slept."
Zhang Xiaoyuan blew a snot bubble, then pushed hard with her hand again, sending the young man flying ten meters away.
"Ah—how dare you play such a trick on me! Unforgivable!"
The young man flew into a rage, and snowflakes instantly began to fall from the air, causing the surrounding temperature to drop, making people feel cold even in the middle of summer.
"Punch me again!"
The young man roared angrily, his fist covered with an ice pick, and stabbed at Zhang Xiaoyuan, who was sleeping in the car.
Boo!
As the snot bubble burst, Zhang Xiaoyuan woke up, meeting the young man's furious gaze.
"Hey, you don't have to worry about dying, because after my ice spike pierces your body, it will freeze your body to stop the bleeding, so you won't die."
The young man smiled, his eyes red.
Zhang Xiaoyuan glanced at the young man indifferently, then stretched out her hand again, grabbed the ice pick from his hand, and pulled it off, holding it in her own hand.
"Hey?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then felt a tremendous force in front of him, which sent him flying and headfirst into the ground.
"I got a fish bone stuck in my mouth when I was eating fish before, and I just used this awl to pick it out."
Upon hearing this, the young man with his head buried in the ground twitched his legs and then fell silent.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding guards tensed up and obediently lowered their heads. The madman had finally met his match and was doomed.
"Let's go."
After picking her teeth, Zhang Xiaoyuan casually tossed away the ice pick and gestured for Qin Fen to drive.
"Oh, okay."
Qin Fen grinned, started the car, and deliberately floored the accelerator when starting, the roar of the engine echoing at the foot of the mountain.
After Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others left, the guards breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"I never expected that such a young powerhouse would appear in Fenghua County."
A guard pulled the young man out, touched his mouth and nose, and
"Oh no, he's stopped breathing! Quick, start artificial respiration!"
"I don't dare. I'm afraid he'll hit me if I wake him up."
"I think he's not dead, but his mouth and nostrils are blocked by mud. Look, his chest is still rising and falling."
……
Regardless of the entrance at the foot of Fenghua Mountain, once Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others entered the foot of the mountain, they found that it was just as bright as day inside, with many lights flashing and shining everywhere.
"What are they doing?" Ishida asked curiously.
"They're probably looking for magical beasts. Although there are checkpoints around the area, Feng Hua Mountain is so big that there are many places where magical beasts can get in."
Especially at night, humans are exhausted from daytime vigilance, while monsters, who hide and rest during the day, come out to hunt at night, making them even more difficult to deal with.
Qin Fen explained.
"Oh, which direction has more monsters?"
Zhang Xiaoyuan surveyed the surroundings and found no monsters. She could only occasionally hear the sounds of fighting in the distance, indicating that there weren't many monsters.
"A place with lots of monsters?"
Qin Fen frowned, thought for a moment, and said:
“Every so often, sometimes it could be a few days, sometimes it could be a few hours, the timing is not fixed, the monsters will launch organized attacks, which will trigger a large-scale confrontation between humans and monsters.”
Although most of the time the monsters suffer heavy losses while the humans suffer less, for the monsters, as long as they can break through the human defenses and enter Feng Hua Mountain, they can rely on their innate senses to find mutated materials that humans cannot find.
Once a magical beast finds and consumes it, it can undergo a life-level evolution, progressing to a Beast King-level magical beast. No matter how many lower-level magical beasts die, it's all worthwhile for the magical beast.
