15: Talent: Nirvana rebirth!

Narrator-kun's sweet voice appeared in Wu Tian's mind, instantly making him shiver.

"Wait, fatty!"

"Stop for a moment!"

Wu Tian shouted to the fatty ahead.

"What's wrong?"

The fatty turned back, puzzled.

"You come back first. It's getting a bit late now. Wait for me to find a flashlight. I'm afraid there might be other dangers."

Wu Tian tried to keep his voice down.

Lest he alert the Mutated Leopard hiding in the shadows.

"Awoo..."

"Then I'll just come back."

The fatty nodded, glanced at the endless darkness around him, and cautiously retreated to Wu Tian's side.

He was also worried about other creatures lurking in the darkness.

After all, he was completely unfamiliar with this place!

The flashlight Wu Tian brought on this trip was an L-shaped special flashlight configured for the former U.S. military.

The flashlight itself was L-shaped. At the time, it was used by U.S. soldiers to hold while crawling forward to explore caves, and to facilitate killing enemy soldiers in the caves, the flashlight's light source was a strong beam!

And its battery life was super long.

Additionally.

Besides being convenient to hold while crawling in caves, he could also clip it to his pocket or backpack straps.

To free up his hands and explore ahead!

"Click!"

Just as Wu Tian gently turned on the flashlight and was about to clip it to his backpack strap...

Whoosh!

A sudden, urgent whooshing sound came from Wu Tian's right rear!

A sense of danger instantly appeared in Wu Tian's heart!

"Damn it!"

"Still couldn't guard against it!"

Wu Tian's eyes narrowed.

Without any hesitation, he pounced directly to his front left. After two days of system enhancements, Wu Tian's strength, speed, and five senses had undergone earth-shattering changes.

This allowed him to narrowly avoid the fatal claw of the creature in the darkness!

But... this leopard actually twisted in mid-air!

Its equally sharp hind claws, with great inertia, struck at Wu Tian again in the blink of an eye!

"Damn!"

"Again?"

Wu Tian broke out in a cold sweat.

The instant his feet landed, he quickly rolled on the ground, trying to dodge the leopard's sharp hind claws!

However... rip!

The sound of tearing clothes was exceptionally clear in the silent night.

The leopard's sharp hind claws still grazed Wu Tian's left arm!

A bloody mark instantly appeared!

"..."

"Boss!"

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"

"What was that sound just now?"

The fatty looked at the bright light of the flashlight on Wu Tian's body rolling around on the ground in a panic, but the flashlight's light was too strong.

He had no idea what happened to Wu Tian.

Or if he was alright.

"Damn it..."

"Peh!"

The strong light from the flashlight stabilized. Wu Tian, not far away, cursed and spat on the ground.

He forcefully racked the gun's slide.

And raised his gun to fire at a swift black figure in the distance!

"Bang bang!"

"Bang!"

In the darkness, flames shot out from the muzzle for more than ten centimeters.

Three bullets flew out from the barrel!

"Thump thump!"

"..."

"Ding!"

The first two bullets hit the broken graphite inside, making two dull thuds, but the last bullet truly hit the leopard!

But... Wu Tian's eyes widened!

His face filled with disbelief!

Because... although that bullet hit the leopard, it was instantly deflected by the leopard's body!

It even sparked!

... "Holy crap, what did I just see? The Host shot the leopard three times, and one shot even bounced off?!"

The Fans in the live stream also saw this scene.

Instantly!

The entire live stream was buzzing!

"You didn't see wrong!"

"I saw it too. Is this leopard not flesh and blood?"

"Or is the Host's gun a defective product?"

"Defective product my foot!"

"Did you forget that the Host killed a leopard before?"

"He did kill one, but that leopard was killed by the Host shooting it in the mouth..."

"Oh, right..."

"Could this leopard's body have mutated and developed an exoskeleton?"

"I'm a biologist, and I can tell you responsibly, upstairs, your idea is very dangerous!"

"..."

Professor Li Xiangzhe, who was on the plane, glared!

And slammed the table!

"Damn it, what the hell is this thing?"

"A gun can't even kill it?"

"Professor..."

A young woman with a cold face and beautiful features, with long, rounded legs encased in jeans, walked towards Li Xiangzhe.

"You should take your medicine. Please put down your tablet first."

"Hmm."

Li Xiangzhe nodded without looking back.

"Don't rush, I'll finish watching this."

It wasn't until he watched Wu Tian take out alcohol to treat his wound that he turned back and took the black liquid the girl handed him.

He drank it with a frown.

Looking at the pained expression on Li Xiangzhe's face, the woman sighed.

"Grandpa Li, when we get there, you still shouldn't go. I can go."

"Huh?"

Li Xiangzhe was startled.

The woman continued.

"My grandfather had an accident there back then. Both emotionally and logically, I should be the one to find the truth!"

"What kind of sense does it make for an old man like you to go?"

"Hehe..."

Li Xiangzhe smiled kindly.

"Your grandfather's business is my business. Back then, your grandfather took my place in that exploration and died in Chernobyl."

"Now I am still alive."

"A useful body can still do things!"

"Just let me do something!"

"But..."

The woman was about to say more.

Li Xiangzhe waved his hand, stopping her.

"Ruoyu, don't say anymore. Go prepare. The radiation in Chernobyl is not to be underestimated!"

"Yes..."

... "Boss?"

The fatty watched Wu Tian fire two shots, then saw a huge black shadow disappear into the distant weeds, and quickly ran to Wu Tian's side with his gun.

He helped him up.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine..."

Wu Tian waved his hand and reinserted his pistol into his waistband.

He rolled up his sleeve.

"Rip!"

Wu Tian quickly tore his sleeve. Three half-inch deep wounds appeared on his shoulder, slowly bleeding outwards.

【Your shoulder has been scratched by a Mutated Leopard. The radiation in its saliva and on its claws has entered your body through your flesh and blood. Your situation is critical!】

【Phoenix Rebirth!】

【The poor state of your body awakened your Talent. As a blessing in disguise, you have gained a stronger physique and radiation resistance!】

【Radiation Resistance +40!】

【Stamina +20!】

Wu Tian's face lit up, and he immediately stopped worrying about the effects of radiation on himself.

He pulled open the stopper of the alcohol bottle and poured the alcohol over his shoulder towards the wounds.

Even without the threat of radiation.

Disinfection is necessary for survival in such wilderness.

"Roar..."

Just as Wu Tian finished treating his wound... a low roar sounded from the side of the two of them... getting closer and closer!
