Chapter 46 – Tiger Hunting (2)

Chapter 46 – Tiger Hunting (2)
If Yue Qiang faced a healthy tiger head on, he would have no chance of victory.

Back when he hunted enemies in the past, he had always relied on Run LVL 2 to provide him the extra agility needed to avoid most damages. Although the tiger was heavy and huge, its agility was even higher than Yue Qiang after he activated that skill. Its eyes might have been blinded by Yin through some unknown method, but its terrifying strength and reaction speed still gave Yue Qiang no opening whatsoever to exploit.

The tiger closed in slowly but resolutely towards them. Yue Qiang could only pull Yin with him and retreat again and again. Very soon they were backed against a cave wall with nowhere else to run.

Yin continued to close her eyes, but she could sense everything that’s happening right in front of her. She suddenly asked with a strange tone, “I see that you’re empty handed all this time. Why don’t you try that weapon behind your back?”

Yue Qiang was cautiously controlling his character to shift backwards and could not afford a third hand to type and respond.

“Is it because that the weapon is not sharp enough that you chose not to use it?” Yin said thoughtfully, “Your weapon seems to be coated with heavy metal poison, and it was forged not too long ago. Its effects should be pretty good. If… if you can hit the tiger’s injured eyes again, then maybe you just might have a chance to survive this.”

Heavy metal poison? Is she talking about the Goldmaker Pill I just used?

Yue Qiang’s mind spun rapidly. At first, the reason he did not use his iron rod and readied his fists instead was because that the attack power of his iron rod was just too low. He might as well be scratching the tiger’s itch. On the other hand, his fist style was powerful and deadly. He could deal more damage in a single hit before spending more time contending with the tiger. However, there was a problem. It he used his fist style, then the distance between the tiger and him would become incredibly short. If he was unlucky, and the tiger managed to touch him even once, there was a high probability that he would die right away.

But he remembered now that Yin had reminded him.

It’s doable. Regardless, I’ll really be fighting with my life on the line this time.

He equipped his iron rod and threw a Basic Jabbing Skill at the enemy.

He missed its injured eyes and jabbed the bridge of its nose instead. It slid towards the side.

It was just one attack, but the tiger had already found out Yue Qiang’s position.

It did not pounce at him, and instead extended a front paw and slapped the iron rod hard towards the side.

The iron rod abruptly bent under the strike, but it did not break from the center. Yue Qiang knew that the iron rod’s pa.s.sive ‘Toughness’ had played its role, but he himself was hurt from the attack!

– 23!

System Message: You are jarred by the tiger’s paw! You are no longer able to grip your weapon steadily, and your accuracy has decreased!

He could no longer decipher this tiger’s strength at all. He lost 23 health just from the aftershock damage transmitted through the iron rod alone, and he was even gifted a minus accuracy debuff from it. If this tiger paw was to slap onto a person’s body, it would definitely result in an instakill. No wonder it was able to break all those soldiers’ spines in half!

If that’s the case, then let us fight to the end!

Yue Qiang’s own courage was drawn out by the battle, as he controlled the iron and jabbed repeatedly at the tiger’s eyes.
