Chapter 489: Wild Boar

"Where are those things? Do we have to fight them?"

Wusan Brother now really needed to vent.

"No, keep moving forward. Although I don't know the reason, those things seem to fear something, so they don't dare to approach us."

The more one knows, the greater the psychological pressure. Su Xiao was the person in the squad bearing the greatest pressure.

Before, there were about hundreds of things around, and they were following from far away. Su Xiao had thought about fighting them, but this thought was extinguished the moment it appeared, because the number of those things soared to thousands within a few seconds.

The current situation was that the way forward was the exit, and there were no such things there, while all other directions were surrounded, so they could only move forward.

Su Xiao opened the task list, and the new task had already appeared.

【Hidden Task Phase 2 "Land of Death" completed, Phase 3 (Final Phase) activated.】

【Dark King】

Difficulty Level: Lv. 19

Task Introduction: Eliminate the Dark King before it completely wakes up.

Task Information: The Dark King's location is deep in the Black Forest. (Warning: If the Dark King wakes up completely, the task difficulty will increase to Lv. 28.)

Task Deadline: None

Task Reward: This is a chain task, rewards will be given based on task completion.

Task Penalty: None

The hidden task had already soared to a terrifying Lv. 19, and there was a possibility of it increasing to Lv. 28 at any time.

If the so-called Dark King woke up completely, Su Xiao would be dead. Now there was no way back, only moving forward.

Just as the few people were moving forward, a sound came from the forest ahead.

The few people looked closely, and it turned out to be a wild boar.

This wild boar was pitch black, its build was as big as a bull, and two tusks protruded from its mouth, the tusks having a faint metallic texture.

"What is it eating... so disgusting."

Wusan Brother frowned tightly; the scene in front of him was really hard to accept.

That beast was biting a human arm in its mouth. The arm was already a bit withered and had been gnawed away for the most part, but even so, the arm in the wild boar's mouth was still struggling hard, forcefully digging at the wild boar's two nostrils.

The wild boar snorted unhappily, threw the arm on the ground, stomped on it several times, and then picked it up and chewed it to pieces.

Seemingly noticing the footsteps of the few people, the wild boar turned its head.

"Living people?"

The wild boar spoke human language, and more importantly, the language the wild boar spoke could be understood by everyone.

"The wild... wild boar spoke."

Suddenly appearing a wild boar that could speak in the current environment, the psychological impact on everyone was great.

"Who are you calling a wild boar, you little bastard."

The wild boar raised its head. Only then did everyone see that the wild boar's eyes were pitch black, with no distinction between pupils and the bottom of the eyes.

Wusan Brother was speechless from the scolding, hesitating for a long time whether he should scold back.

"Survival trial or here to complete a task?"

The wild boar sat on the ground, seemingly having no hostility.

"Who are you?"

Su Xiao looked the wild boar up and down; the other party gave him a familiar yet strange feeling.

"Your predecessors, Qiyuezhe who participated in the trial many batches ago, a stupid bastard who went deep into the Black Forest to fish for benefits but failed."

Sure enough, from the conversation of the "wild boar" before, it could be heard that the other party was from Earth.

"Then what is your current appearance?"

Wusan Brother felt a chill down his spine. This Qiyuezhe became such an appearance, which meant they might also be the same.

"Why should I tell you? You have already been surrounded by the undead, you are dead. I advise you to have a carnival before you die. It just so happens that there is a girl in your team. Although she is young, she can still be used."

The wild boar sneered, looking at the few people with interest.

"I'll negotiate."

Su Xiao bypassed Wusan Brother and walked slowly toward the wild boar.

"Want to take action? Although I have become neither human nor ghost now, my strength has improved too much, not you First-Tier..."

*Zing! *

Blade light slashed out, and the wild boar hurriedly lay on the ground. The half-meter-thick tree behind it was slashed off, the slanted cross-section smooth as a mirror.

"Hey, that's blade light, right? How can a First-Tier Qiyuezhe use this thing."

The wild boar looked at the slowly falling tree with lingering fear.

Discovering that Su Xiao had already taken action, Wusan Brother rushed forward quickly, Xiao Mihu added several states to Su Xiao, and Old Man Shi turned his back to the few people to guard against the danger behind.

"Wait."

The beast shouted, but Wusan Brother and Su Xiao didn't pay attention to the other party at all, rushing directly toward the wild boar.

"Hmph, it's amazing to be able to slash out blade light. I was also at the top of the First-Tier before I died."

The wild boar stomped on the ground and rushed toward the few people at full speed.

Wusan Brother stopped his rushing footsteps, stuck in a good position, exactly between Su Xiao and the wild boar.

Wusan Brother's body leaned low, his arms stretched forward. Just as the wild boar rushed in front of him, steam surged on the gauntlets, and he grabbed the wild boar's head precisely.

*Boom! *

Like a high-speed train hitting a rock, the wild boar was grabbed by the head by Wusan Brother.

Mud splattered under Wusan Brother's feet, and large patches of dead leaves sprayed behind him. His legs sank into the mud, and his body remained leaning forward.

Fine cracks appeared on Wusan Brother's shoulders, but Wusan Brother didn't retreat a step. There was no main tank who died from being hit head-on, no main tank who ran away, otherwise he didn't deserve to call himself a main tank, at least Wusan Brother thought so.

"Not bad."

The wild boar sneered, cold air overflowing from its body.

*Squish! *

A long blade pierced through the wild boar's side ribs. The wild boar looked stunned, and at the same time felt a burst of excruciating pain.

Checking Zhan Long Shan pierced through the wild boar's body, and Su Xiao pressed forward with force.

*Bang. *

The wild boar collapsed to the ground, dead leaves flying, its body completely pierced by Checking Zhan Long Shan.

"Pain? This is pain, hahahaha, how many years, how many years haven't I felt pain."

Although the wild boar was pierced through the body, it was laughing wildly.

Su Xiao pulled out Checking Zhan Long Shan. At this moment, Wusan Brother was grabbing the wild boar's head tightly.

Checking Zhan Long Shan flipped in his hand, changing from a forward grip to a reverse grip. Holding the blade in his right hand and bracing the end of the hilt with his left, Su Xiao stabbed the wild boar's head with one blade.

*Squish. *

The long blade pierced through the wild boar's brain marrow. Wusan Brother just wanted to let go.

"It's not dead."

Su Xiao gripped the hilt tightly and looked down at the wild boar.

"How did you do it? Make me feel pain. Do it again!"

The wild boar, whose head had been pierced, spoke, its expression calm, without any sign of death.

Su Xiao pulled out the blade, Checking Zhan Long Shan changed back to a forward grip, and he prepared to slash off the wild boar's head.

"Wait, wait."

Su Xiao ignored it, and the long blade still slashed down.

"Want to see the Dark King? This was my purpose before I died. You should be here to find the Dark King."

The long blade stopped a few centimeters from the wild boar's neck, and the biting blade light slashed off the wild boar's hair.

"You have seen the Dark King."

"Of course, I became this appearance because of his masterpiece."

The wild boar looked Su Xiao up and down.

"If it's a half-awake Dark King, you might be able to kill him. I can help you point the way."

Su Xiao shook his head.

"I don't believe it, it's more reliable to chop you."

Su Xiao made a gesture to swing the blade.

"It's useless to chop me, I won't die even if you chop me into a dozen pieces. Don't worry, with my current appearance, there is no benefit in lying to you. To be precise, I am already dead."

The wild boar sighed helplessly, and there were no emotions such as desire and greed in those pitch-black eyes, but instead a desire to die. ===== CHAPTER 490 =====
