15: Chapter 15 All eyes are on me! I'm done for!

[Taunt Aura] activated!

Hum—!

A strange fluctuation, perceptible only to biological instincts, instantly spread out in all directions with Lin Fan as the center.

The originally silent forest instantly exploded into chaos.

Within a ten-meter radius, a venomous flower snake sleeping in the grass suddenly raised its head.

A Wind Blade Wolf, preparing to hunt in a tree, paused its claws.

Even the marmot digging tunnels underground burst out of the earth.

At this moment, the eyes of all the demonic beasts turned scarlet.

Reason? What is that?

They now had only one thought in their minds.

Kill that two-legged beast!

That human standing in the clearing looked so punchable no matter how one looked at him.

That face was simply growing right on their aesthetic minefield!

"Roar!"

"Hiss!"

"Squeak!"

All sorts of chaotic cries rang out in unison.

Immediately after, the ground began to shake.

The bushes in every direction shook violently, and countless dark shadows lunged toward Lin Fan.

If someone with trypophobia saw this scene, they would probably pass out from fright on the spot.

But Lin Fan looked at this group of experience packs charging over with red eyes, smiling brilliantly.

"Come, come, come! Don't crowd!"

"Line up! Everyone gets a turn!"

"Hey, that snake, don't bite my shoe, bite my leg! There's meat on the leg!"

Bang!

A Wind Blade Wolf was the first to pounce on Lin Fan, its sharp claws, imbued with wind blades, slashed fiercely at Lin Fan's chest.

With a ripping sound, his clothes tore.

But that was all.

Lin Fan looked down at his chest, seeing the mark that didn't even leave a white scratch, and shook his head.

"Didn't you eat?!"

[Ding! Suffered a claw strike from a Level 1 Low-Tier Wind Blade Wolf! Defense + 2!]

[Ding! Suffered a bite from a Level 1 venomous flower snake! Poison Resistance + 1! Defense + 1!]

[Ding! Suffered a headbutt from a mutated marmot! Defense + 0.5!]

A dense barrage of attacks instantly submerged Lin Fan.

This scene was just witnessed by a passing team of students from another school.

These students had been exploring cautiously, terrified of alerting any demonic beasts.

But when they looked up, they saw a dense mass of demonic beasts surrounding the base of the big tree in front of them.

There must have been at least thirty or forty of them!

And in the middle of that pile of demonic beasts, there was actually a human head bobbing around?

"What the f*ck! What is going on?"

"That's a person, right? Being besieged by so many demonic beasts? Wouldn't he be gnawed down to a skeleton?"

"Run, run! Don't draw the monsters over!"

These students' faces turned pale with fear, and they turned to run.

But after running two steps, they realized something was wrong.

Those demonic beasts didn't pay them any attention at all!

All the aggro seemed to be locked onto the person besieged in the middle!

Even an Iron-Skin Pig passed by their feet without even glancing at them, grunting as it charged straight toward Lin Fan.

These students were stunned.

One of the bolder ones tremblingly took out a mobile phone.

"This... what kind of move is this?"

"Did that guy kill the whole family of these demonic beasts?"

"This aggro pull is too stable, right?"

The camera zoomed in.

Inside the screen, although Lin Fan's clothes were torn into rags and he was covered in mud and grass clippings, he actually had an expression of enjoyment on his face!

He was even shouting and yelling.

"Harder! Brother Wolf over there, your teeth aren't good, you need to get them cleaned!"

"And you, that pheasant, why are you pecking my butt? You pervert!"

"Awesome! That's the rhythm! Don't stop!"

The few students watching were completely petrified.

The hand recording the video was shaking.

If this video were posted online, there would be no need to think of a title.

"Shocking! A masochistic demon appears in the Mist Forest, taking on a group of demonic beasts alone, and actually complains that the demonic beasts have no strength?"

Lin Fan didn't care at all if anyone was watching.

He felt absolutely amazing right now.

His Defense value was skyrocketing like a rocket.

Although the experience from a single attack wasn't much, just +1 or +2.

But he couldn't resist the sheer volume!

This was like going to a buffet to stock up; even though the unit price was cheap, you couldn't beat the fact that you could eat a lot!

[Ding! Congratulations to the host! Defense Level increased to LV13!]

A warm current washed over his entire body.

Lin Fan felt that his skin seemed to become tighter, and his muscle density increased once again.

Now, the attacks from those Level 1 low-tier demonic beasts were no different from a massage when they hit him.

Even the pain had lessened quite a bit.

This made Lin Fan a bit dissatisfied.

"This won't do, the quality of this batch of demonic beasts is not good enough."

"I need to change places and find some higher-grade stuff."

And so, an extremely bizarre scene appeared in the Mist Forest.

A ragged youth followed by a massive, sweeping army of demonic beasts.

He ran in front, occasionally turning back to throw out a few Taunts.

The demonic beasts chased behind, each one so angry their eyes were about to pop out.

Wherever this procession passed, not a blade of grass survived, and it was total chaos.

Other trial teams saw this scene and were all so terrified they pressed themselves against the trees, not daring to move.

They were afraid of being swept into this mudslide.

The hell, is this a trial? This is destruction!

Lin Fan didn't stay in this area for too long.

As his Defense Level increased, the Defense value that these Level 1 low-tier and mid-tier demonic beasts in the outer area could provide became less and less.

Even that Iron-Skin Pig that he once felt had a bit of kick now only gave [Defense + 0.1] when it bumped into him.

Mosquito legs are still meat, but this was too little to even get between his teeth.

Lin Fan decided to head deeper into the forest.

He kept [Taunt Aura] on, just like a moving magnet.

Wherever he went, the demonic beasts there would lunge at him like crazy.

Along the way, he encountered more and more trial teams.

The originally tense and serious trial atmosphere had completely changed flavor because of Lin Fan's appearance.

Everyone stopped fighting monsters. They were all holding phones, following behind Lin Fan's butt to livestream.

"Family! Look! This is that fool!"

"He's pulled another group of Red-Eyed Rabbits! These rabbits can kick eagles! Holy sh*t, he's taking the rabbit kicks directly with his face?"

"Too brutal! Too perverted!"

"I don't see him having any issues at all; how high must this Defense be?"

The video soon went viral in various school group chats and even on the Jiangcheng Awakened forum.

...At this moment. On the other side of the forest.

Li Hao was leading his elite team, having just struggled to kill a Level 1 high-tier Wind Blade Wolf King.

Li Hao was panting heavily, and his expensive combat suit was torn in a few places.

But this didn't stop him from acting cool.

He stepped on the corpse of the Wolf King, striking a pose he thought was very cool.

"Su Xue, is it filmed?"

"Remember to find a good angle, make me look heroic."

Su Xue was holding the phone, but her expression was a bit strange.

"Hao... Brother Hao, it's filmed. But... the current heat doesn't seem to be on us."

Li Hao frowned, feeling a bit displeased.

"What do you mean? I just solo-killed a Level 1 high-tier Wolf King! Isn't this achievement explosive enough?"

"Besides me, who else has this kind of strength?"

Su Xue handed over the phone and said cautiously, "You should watch this video... that good-for-nothing Lin Fan seems to have gone viral."

"What?!"

Li Hao snatched the phone. The screen was playing the scene of Lin Fan taking a bath in the beast horde.

In the video, Lin Fan was surrounded by dozens of demonic beasts, yet he was still there grinning and begging to be hit.

The dense barrage of attacks landing on him couldn't even break his Defense!

The comment section was even more explosive.

[Which god is this? Is the Defense-type talent this OP?]

[I heard it's the F-class trash from the Third High School? This is supposed to be trash?]

[The attack frequency of these demonic beast groups, even a Level 2 Martial Artist couldn't withstand it, right!]

[This is so secure! Want to marry!]

Li Hao looked at the full screen of "666" and "Want to marry," and his lungs were about to explode with anger.

This was clearly his home field! This was his great opportunity to show his face in front of the goddess and establish his prestige in front of the whole school!

Yet the limelight was completely stolen by this idiot who only knew how to get beaten up?

"Crack!" Li Hao exerted force with his palm, and the newly bought smartphone was instantly crushed to pieces.

The screen shards dug into his flesh, but he didn't even feel the pain. Only burning jealousy and rage were ignited.

"Bastard! A clown seeking attention!"

"Isn't it just having thick skin? When encountering a true powerhouse, it's just a matter of one punch!"

Li Hao, with a gloomy face, threw the phone remains on the ground.

"Let's go! We're going to find him!"

"I want to see how much damage he can withstand!"

Just at this moment. A commotion suddenly came from the front.

Li Hao looked up and saw Lin Fan swaggering by with his "demonic beast fan club."

And what made Li Hao cough up blood even more was this. Under a tree not far away.

The goddess he had been yearning for, Xia Wanqiu, was resting there with her team.

Seeing Lin Fan come over, Xia Wanqiu's beautiful eyes instantly lit up.

She even stood up excitedly, her small hands covering her mouth, her eyes full of surprise and... admiration?

That's right! It was admiration! That kind of look when seeing a powerhouse!

"Classmate Lin Fan... is really amazing..."

Xia Wanqiu murmured. Although the voice was small, it was like a thorn, piercing deeply into Li Hao's heart.

He worked hard to kill the Wolf King, but the goddess didn't see it. This trash was there getting beaten up like a clown, yet the goddess was watching intently?

Why!

A flash of sinister light flickered in Li Hao's eyes. Since you like getting beaten up so much. Since you want to show off so much. Then I will fulfill your wish!

Deep in this forest, there was an existence that even the team-leading teachers warned repeatedly never to provoke.

That was the true overlord of this outer area!

"Su Xue, give me that thing in your bag." Li Hao reached out his hand coldly.

Su Xue was stunned, and then her expression changed. "Brother Hao, are you talking about that [Beast Luring Incense]? That's used for saving one's life or setting traps; if it's used here..."

"Less nonsense! Give it to me!"

Li Hao snatched a small bottle from Su Xue's bag.

Inside it was high-concentration Beast Luring Incense, which could significantly stimulate the violent emotions of demonic beasts.

Especially for those lord-level demonic beasts, it had a fatal attraction.

Li Hao looked at Lin Fan not far away, a cruel smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

"Lin Fan, don't you like pulling monsters? I'll send you a big one!"
