Pretending To Be A Boss

Chapter 11: Chapter 5: Dog Talk and Dog Meat_2



The battle was a sight to behold.

The tearing and biting force of the Hellhounds and Bone Hyenas, which were beyond human imagination, made Dong Ran's eyes widen, and her expression was filled with horror.

As for Tang Xian, he was composed, occasionally glancing up at the sky.

They stayed over a hundred meters away from the battlefield, so as not to be affected. When Bone Hyenas and Hellhounds fought, it was a fight to the death.

Therefore, Tang Xian truly felt it was not worth the concern.

No matter how fiercely the two canine species fought, shaking the earth or tearing the sky apart, in Tang Xian's view, it was ultimately...

Just dogs biting dogs.

The Hellhounds quickly became injured, and the Bone Hyenas didn't have an easy time either. Some of them were even slapped to death. Of course, one of the Hellhound's heads also paid a heavy price.

Dong Ran couldn't help but think, if it were humans who wanted to inflict such a dramatic wound on one of the Hellhound's heads, they would surely have to pay a terrible price, right?

They might even need to use weapons transformed from high-grade armed mines, possibly requiring the awakening of powerful combat skills.

The Hellhound, to humans, is considered a boss-level creature that was not so unfamiliar and mysterious. But it was precisely because of this familiarity that it was taken seriously.

Nobody would take on such a creature lightly. Even newcomers looking for merit and to prove themselves would search for weaker creatures.

Yet there was Tang Xian, so carefree, lying behind a rock, plotting against this creature feared by humans.

The injuries on both sides continued to deepen.

Dong Ran wondered how much manpower and resources would normally be needed for such a situation?

However... whether it was the Bone Hyenas or the Hellhounds, no matter who won, they would likely consume their opponent clean. How would Tang Brother collect the Soul Crystal Mine afterward?

An outcome where both sides were equally injured and perished together was almost impossible. Whether it was the Hellhounds or the Bone Hyenas, even if injured, they were still dangerous.

Tang Xian saw Dong Ran's doubts, but he wouldn't explain a question he had already answered.

The fierce battle between the Bone Hyenas and Hellhounds continued, and dark clouds had begun to appear in the sky.

"It's actually... going to rain?" Dong Ran had heard from Tang Xian not long ago that there would be heavy rain tonight, but she didn't expect it to really happen.

In their six-person team, indeed, some could predict the weather, others were experts in analyzing terrain, or some were more knowledgeable about vegetation and animals.

Everyone receiving survival education would start to specialize at the age of fifteen, because the breadth of knowledge was simply too vast.

Even Earth, with thousands of years of human civilization, had many unknowns in various fields, let alone a new world that had only appeared for a few hundred years?

Dong Ran looked at Tang Xian's profile, which was marked with a maturity that belied his age.

Upon closer reflection, she realized Tang Xian's combat strategy actually involved a lot of knowledge.

Using the scent of plants to disperse wild beasts, achieving a state of not being actively attacked, then utilizing geographical knowledge to find the Hellhound's lair, and succeeding in luring over its natural enemy by exploiting the animals' territorial instincts.

With the added precise prediction of the weather, was he waiting for the heavy rain to reap the benefits of a fisherman?

This process seemed simple on reflection, but it involved so many areas. How could one person master so many disciplines?

Tang Xian's knowledge of the mining area was also too... too comprehensive.

"Get ready, the Hellhound is critically injured, the rain will continue for a long time, and the Bone Hyenas will soon retreat. The rain will wash away the scent of the Bloodgrass on our bodies, but the Hellhound's Soul Crystal Mine, being the core of a boss-level creature, will have a certain deterrent effect."

"You've considered this as well?" Dong Ran's mouth dropped open in surprise.

Raindrops fell on them; despite the huge rock shielding the rain, it couldn't completely cover their bodies.

Tang Xian glanced at Dong Ran, whose clothes had become somewhat transparent after being drenched.

Dong Ran could see clothes clinging to Tang Xian's muscular lines, and it took her several seconds to realize something, at which point she yelled and clasped her hands over her chest.

"Tsk, weren't you planning to sell yourself to me? What's there to cover up?"

"Don't tease me..."

Tang Xian turned his head away. The intensity of the rain continued to increase, and the Hellhounds and the Bone Hyenas emitted weak howls.

Although both creatures were averse to water, it did not mean they couldn't tolerate it. However, at that moment, they faced their natural enemy and were locked in a life-and-death battle, both heavily damaged. Water, therefore, was even more lethal to these fire-attribute creatures, and the onset of rain could very well drive one party away.

After several minutes, thunder rumbled in the sky and the rain intensified.

In the end, five Bone Hyenas barely alive made plans to drag their comrades' bodies and flee, while the two side heads of the Hellhound had been severely damaged, and the middle head had suffered heavy injuries, even revealing the blue Soul Crystal Mine at the top of its skull.

Tang Xian stood up.

Dong Ran followed behind Tang Xian, her arms wrapped protectively around her chest.

Tang Xian walked slowly; the Bone Hyenas clearly saw Tang Xian but paid him no attention. The heavy rain was too much for them to bear.

They had wanted to completely devour the Hellhound. If they had not been so severely injured, they would have endured the pouring rain and consumed the Hellhound until no bones were left.

But these few Bone Hyenas were too weak.

The Hellhound, too, was on the brink of death. Tang Xian approached within five meters of the massive beast before coming to a stop.

Watching the elite boss creature's brown chest heave, he was in no hurry. He let the heavy rain drench him completely, sat down, and waited for the giant dog to take its last breath.
