My Special Ability is Perfect Replication

Chapter 41: Crushing a Class 4 Direbeast, the Assault of the Beast Tide

On the street filled with vegetation, thirty to forty giant wolves stepped forward as they charged furiously toward a young man.

These giant wolves had a gray coat over their bodies, with a row of bone spurs on their backs and tails like bronze hammers. They were Class 2 Direbeasts called Hammerspike Wolves.

“Awoooo!”

The Hammerspike Wolves howled furiously as they charged in from all directions. They menacingly tried to rip the young man apart, be it with their fangs or claws.

Unfortunately for them, no matter how they attacked, they could not even get close to the young man, being held back at a ten-meter radius around him.

Flowing sand circled the young man and constantly changed into various shapes. Whenever a wolf approached, it would be sent flying by the sand.

The young man strolled in the courtyard and walked all the way from one end of the street to the other, leaving pools of blood, as well as Hammerspike Wolf corpses, in his wake.

Yet, the young man had never even moved his finger since the beginning, not even breaking a drop of sweat.

“I really look like Gaara from Naruto now!”

Gaara was a character in an anime called Naruto. He could freely control sand and change it into various forms for offense and defense. His control of sand could even be called an art.

“After reaching Level 4, my control of the sand has been much more agile. With just a single thought, I can control the sand at will and transform it into all kinds of shapes to attack and defend!

“So this is a Level 4 Arcanist!” Ling Jiu continued.

Next, he expanded his Arcana’s area of control to a radius of a hundred meters. If a Direbeast were to come within a hundred meters of him, he would launch an attack.

The plan was to train his control of his Arcana.

After reaching Level 4, the Arcana’s radius had increased to a hundred meters around his body. With the sudden increase of seventy meters at once, his control of his Arcana would inevitably be rough around the edges.

That meant practice!

Only with continuous practice would he achieve precise control over his Arcana at a range of a hundred meters.

Boom!

Linyou County was home to a large number of Direbeasts, and they were all Ling Jiu’s training targets. He continued to provoke them, and the Direbeasts continued to attack him.

He honed his combat ability through actual combat.

He also honed his Arcana control through actual combat.

Whenever he was tired, he would find a place to rest.

Whenever he was hungry, he would simply grab something to eat.

Every day was busy but fruitful.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

“I’ve almost completely slaughtered the Direbeasts in Linyou County, and those that have not been killed have fled into the mountains. They shouldn’t be coming back for a while now!

“Time to go home!”

After a week of slaughter, the greenness on Ling Jiu’s face had somewhat faded as his entire person appeared more mature, especially with the murderous aura that shone in his eyes from time to time. It gave him a little more presence.

“However, before I go back, let’s kill that old croc in Yunnu Lake!”

As he thought of this, Ling Jiu deployed the maglev motorcycle and rushed toward the lake, west of the county. It was the only lake in Linyou County—Yunnu Lake.

Yunnu Lake was not big, and it had been formed by the mountains. The lake was surrounded on three sides by the mountains, with many towering trees and lush vegetation growing around it. The lake water was clear and very cooling.

Yunnu Lake was the only place that Ling Jiu had yet to visit. According to the Direbeast Radar, there was a Class 4 Direbeast in there.

When Ling Jiu arrived at the lake, he casually swiped his hand, and a large amount of sand rose up from the lake, forming into a stone pillar.

Ling Jiu stood on the stone pillar and locked on the Class 4 Direbeast as he attacked it.

Baaaam!!

Fifty square meters of Osmium Soil transformed into a giant hand as it tried to grab the Class 4 Direbeast where it was.

There was a loud bang as the lake water splashed up high, kicking up countless waves.

“Raawr!!!”

A furious roar mixed with a tinge of pain rang out from the bottom of the lake as a giant crocodile over twenty meters in length emerged from the lake.

It was covered in hard scales, and there was a row of bone spurs at the center of its back. Its two-meter-long mouth was filled with dense rows of sharp teeth. This Class 4 Direbeast was the Titan Crocodile!

The Titan Crocodile stared at Ling Jiu, its eyes brimming with fury. It was the overlord of this lake and even the entire Linyou County. No Direbeast had dared to approach, let alone attack it without any reservations!

His actions were literally courting death!

“Rawr!!!”

The Titan Crocodile roared as it thrashed and slammed its ten-meter-long tail into the stone pillar that Ling Jiu was standing on.

As long as it could destroy the stone pillar and make Ling Jiu fall into the water, the Titan Crocodile was confident that it could swallow Ling Jiu whole. While he was not even enough to fill the gaps between its teeth, at least it could vent its anger.

“Hehe, you must be dreaming!”

Ling Jiu snorted and struck the Titan Crocodile before it even approached him.

The fifty square meter’s worth of osimium soil quickly wrapped around his body, and in the blink of an eye, Ling Jiu became a thirty-meter-tall osmium giant.

The giant was completely silver like a massive superalloy robot as it shone brightly under the sun.

“Die!”

The osmium giant clenched its fist and threw a punch at the charging Titan Crocodile.

The Titan Crocodile was huge, and the water level in Yunnu Lake was not deep, so its swimming speed was not exactly fast.

Then, the fist struck the Titan Crocodile squarely on its back!

Dushhh!!

The Titan Crocodile was smashed straight into the bottom of the lake as blood flowed out of its body. That strike from the fist had clearly wounded it.

“Again!”

The osmium giant’s hands reached out and clasped the Titan Crocodile’s neck, pulling it out of the bottom of the lake as if it was a chick.

Ling Jiu then raised his left fist and struck the crocodile like a violent storm.

Dush dush dush!!!

The Titan Crocodile struggled as it swung its tail at the osmium giant.

But... it was useless!

Its power was just too weak, and it could not even shake the osmium giant in the slightest. Even if the osmium soil were scattered by its thrashing, it would reform into the osmium giant again.

A minute later, the osmium giant was still doing fine, and the Titan Crocodile’s struggle was becoming weaker and weaker. After a while, it finally stopped moving and was smashed to death.

“Done!”

With a wave of his hand, he stored the Titan Crocodile into his dimensional pocket and dispersed the osmium giant at the same time.

“Even a Titan Crocodile was just bullied to death, and I haven’t even used my Shadowform, Gravity, and Blink yet. Easy peasy!”

Ling Jiu stretched and jumped onto his maglev motorcycle. “Xiaojiu, turn on automatic navigation. Let’s head back to Lantian Base City!”

“Yes, Master!”

The maglev motorcycle turned into a stream of light and disappeared from Linyou County.

It took merely half an hour to get back to Lantian Base City, but the scene outside the city shocked Ling Jiu.

Direbeasts!

A large number of Direbeasts had surrounded Lantian Base City!

Their numbers were countless, at least in the tens of thousands, and there was a massive shadow floating in the sky that raised Ling Jiu’s brows up high!

It was a flying Direbeast with a wingspan of more than sixty meters. It had massive bat wings but a rat-like body.

There was no fur on its body. Instead, it had pieces of hard scales in place. A terrifying aura radiated from it, driving fear into everyone.
