Chapter 112

However, when she turned around to leave the alley, she discovered that two more dogs had appeared behind her—Akita dogs.

They were not large, but they bared their teeth and stared at her, constantly emitting a fierce aura.

Yukinoshita Yukino took a step back and bumped into Lin Ye.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

"There are dogs."

Yukinoshita’s voice sounded somewhat shaky; it was a feeling of fear stemming from the depths of her heart.

Lin Ye glanced back out of the corner of his eye and immediately spotted the two Akita dogs.

They had been set up.

"Even dogs are playing tricks now; this world really isn't very pleasant."

"Please be serious, Lin Ye."

Yukinoshita Yukino watched the three dogs on both sides slowly closing in, and the fear in her heart kept surfacing, assaulting her brain and soul.

"Don't worry, as long as I haven't fallen, you will be absolutely fine."

"Save the jokes for later."

"How sad, I was being completely serious."

He protected the girl with one hand while slowly moving away from the Tosa dog; compared to the two Akitas, the Tosa was the greatest threat.

"Remember, Yukinoshita, just run outward in a moment. Don't worry about the two Akitas; I will handle them. You will definitely be fine, you just need to focus on running out."

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Trust me just this once. The worst that can happen is getting bitten by a dog a couple of times; it won't kill you."

But she was thinking of the case Lin Ye had mentioned after school.

"I'll count to three. Don't let me down."

"Three..."

Yukinoshita was stunned, only to see Lin Ye running straight toward the two Akita dogs.

What?

By the time she reacted and sprinted with all her might, Yukinoshita Yukino only heard the "awoo" cries of pain coming from the two Akitas ahead.

The two Akitas were howling as they collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

She had no time to think, further accelerating her sprint.

Meanwhile, Lin Ye turned to face the charging Tosa dog.

"Awoo!"

The Tosa dog roared in fury, opening its blood-red maw, its robust body erupting with unprecedented power.

The next moment,

What it felt was a heavy blow to its head and intense pain radiating throughout its entire body.

Fifteen seconds.

During 12 of those seconds,

Lin Ye swung the solid iron rod, continuously striking the Tosa dog’s head, torso, and other vital areas.

In the final 3 seconds, he created distance to prevent the Tosa dog’s death throes.

"Awoo, awoo..."

The Tosa dog lay on the ground howling incessantly; it completely failed to understand what had happened, why it had suddenly suffered such heavy blows, and why its head and entire body had been beaten so violently.

Why?

Why did it turn out like this?

"Awoo..."

The Tosa dog went berserk, its body emitting crisp creaking sounds; the Tosa, already a medium-to-large breed, suddenly surged in size, and its bleeding wounds healed rapidly.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo..."

It roared toward the sky, howling continuously, sending out ripples of sound.

At this moment,

It seemed like the king of dogs.

This was definitely a supernatural dog.

Lin Ye looked at the Tosa dog, which was now twice its original size.

But why did the 'Supernatural Game' not provide any prompts?

"Could it be that it's too weak to be the target of a specialized real-world routine mission?"

Or is there some other reason?

In any case, deal with it first.

Beating it to death is the right choice.

"Woof, awoo, awoo..."

The roaring continued; the Tosa dog felt the immense power contained within the strong muscles of its expanded body and stared viciously at the man in front of it.

For it, the pain and confusion from just a moment ago had all vanished.

Killing intent and appetite occupied its entire brain.

Bite him to death, tear him apart, eat him, and turn him into a part of itself.

The next moment, the Tosa dog sprang up, opening its blood-red maw.

Lin Ye had anticipated this and dodged to the side; 'Thud...' the solid iron rod slammed fiercely into the Tosa dog's head.

Immediately after, he swung the rod repeatedly, landing three consecutive hits, but the damage was minimal; the Tosa dog only took two steps back, showing absolutely no fear.

"Woof, awoo..."

It let out a roar, glared, stepped forward, extended its sturdy and powerful claws, and locked its eyes onto Lin Ye.

At this moment,

Lin Ye had already grasped the supernatural item he carried with him, the 'Snake Eye Orb'.

In an instant, the moment their gazes met,

The Tosa dog's crazed, bloodthirsty expression changed rapidly; its sharp, malicious eyes gradually softened, soon turning into fear.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo..."

A fearful whimpering sound suddenly rang out.

It recalled the days of its youth when it was beaten and cried out in pain.

The Tosa dog retreated.

Lin Ye stepped forward, seized the opportunity, lifted the iron rod, and smashed it down hard.

"Thud..."

"Thud..."

Every strike was full-force, every blow solid, beating the Tosa dog until its head was a bloody mess as it lay on its side; however, compared to the physical trauma, the Tosa dog was mourning more in the illusion of fear.

"Awoo!"

Suddenly,

The Tosa dog's voice changed, and its eyes recovered.

Lin Ye immediately realized that the Tosa dog had successfully broken free from the fear.

"..."

He continued to use the supernatural item, and the illusion of fear surfaced once again, but compared to the previous effect, the Tosa dog's fear and dread were clearly much less.

It no longer shied away; instead, it roared and launched another attack in anger.

It seemed to still be somewhat affected by the illusion of fear, causing the Tosa dog to be a little timid; its reactions and attacks were no longer as fierce or agile as they were initially.

The two Akita dogs had also gotten up, and under the Tosa dog's call, they dragged their injured bodies and kept closing in on Lin Ye.

One large and two small, they kept closing in.

Lin Ye wondered if he should call Kuroshima Miyuki to help; when dealing with the supernatural, letting Kuroshima Miyuki handle it was actually a pretty good choice.
