154: Chapter 154 Truly worthy of being called an elite wild boar

Just as Tang Yao and Hu Gualing were mourning for the deceased Xiao Niao, they saw that the Black Wild Boar had no intention of stopping. Instead of turning around to deal with the two of them, it continued running toward Xiao Niao's corpse.

Tang Yao and Hu Gualing both frowned: "What is going on? Is it actually trying to desecrate the corpse?"

Xiao Niao was terrified. Although he was dead and saw only a black-and-white game screen (which he assumed was from his spiritual perspective), and even if the Black Wild Boar was incredibly strong, it couldn't possibly harm his spiritual body. However, he saw a hunger for food in the boar's mangled face. Was it trying to eat his corpse!?

"No! Don't come over here!"

Xiao Niao screamed internally. To be honest, he would rather suffer the pain of having his thigh pierced by the boar's tusks and being thrown to the ground again than endure the feeling of watching his own corpse being eaten. Even though it was a black-and-white screen, it was still incredibly horrifying!

But the Black Wild Boar couldn't hear his screams. It kept approaching with a greedy look on its face, bringing its mangled snout close to the corpse, saliva and blood mixing together and dripping down its jaw in a steady stream.

Even someone as gentle and shy as Xiao Niao started cursing internally. Who the hell designed this Black Wild Boar? It was one thing to ram someone to death, but why did it have to come over to the corpse and gross people out!!

He had focused all his attention on [Resurrection]. Of course, reviving on the spot was definitely not an option. The Black Wild Boar was right in front of him; if he revived there, let alone escaping, he would probably be trampled by the Black Wild Boar again before he could even stand up.

Fortunately, the Resurrection feature had two options: reviving on the spot or reviving in a Safe Zone. This Safe Zone was easy to understand; it must be inside Xiao Huang Village.

However, if he chose to revive in the Safe Zone, he would be back in the village. It would be nearly impossible for him to travel alone across such a vast wilderness map to return to the mountains and meet up with Gualing and Tang Yao... Although Xiao Niao could take this opportunity to stay safely tucked away in the village, he felt guilty. Abandoning his teammates like that was a very irresponsible thing to do.

But if the Black Wild Boar was really going to gnaw on his corpse, he couldn't worry about that...

Just as he was thinking this, the Black Wild Boar's tusks touched his corpse. Xiao Niao was extremely nervous, his attention locked on the option to revive in the Safe Zone. With just a thought, he could confirm it. As for abandoning his teammates, he believed Gualing and Tang Yao would understand in such a special situation. Just as Xiao Niao was about to confirm, he saw a flash of white light. The corpse on the ground slowly faded until it disappeared. Even the crimson stain on the ground vanished, and the yellow sand and soil that had been soaked in blood faded back to their original color.

Xiao Niao was stunned for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that player corpses, like monster corpses, were just non-existent data, so naturally, there was no such thing as corpse desecration or dismemberment. He had just been too nervous and scared to realize this. It seemed that the development team of Fantasy Jianghu, while truly annoying, wasn't quite that twisted...

With the danger gone, Xiao Niao breathed a sigh of relief, but the Black Wild Boar was dumbfounded.

Where did that big meal that was lying here just a moment ago go? Why did it suddenly vanish? The Black Wild Boar, feeling both confused and full of Life Qi, lowered its head and sniffed the ground vigorously, but it couldn't smell a trace of food. Suddenly feeling like it had been toyed with, the confusion in its eyes turned into rage. It turned its head and spotted the other two humans in the distance, immediately marking them as the targets for its vented rage. It turned its massive boar body to face the two humans, lowered its head, stared straight ahead, and aimed at its target. It kicked its hind hooves against the ground, confirming the surface was solid enough not to slip, then raised its hooves and charged forward with its pair of tusks thrusting out.

As for the target of this charge, it was, of course, that tall and big oaf. Although he looked a bit silly, his physique was quite sturdy, making him very eye-catching to a boar. The initial target of the long-distance charge earlier had been him as well, but for some reason, it hadn't hit...

Hu Gualing had been somewhat worried when he saw the Black Wild Boar continue walking toward Xiao Niao's corpse after finishing him off. He was worried both that Xiao Niao wouldn't be able to rest in peace and that the Black Wild Boar would find a place to hide and recover after dealing with the corpse. Fortunately, Xiao Niao's corpse vanished into a white light. After the Black Wild Boar was stunned for a moment, it seemed completely indifferent to the wound on its cheek that was still Bleeding. Instead of running away to recover, it acted like nothing happened, turned around, and launched another charge.

Truly worthy of being an Elite Black Wild Boar with the Fearless prefix!
