181: Chapter 181 Weak Points

Looking at the Mutated White Wild Boar, which was massive—nearly one or two stories tall—already right in front of him, with one pig leg raised high and about to stomp down, Hu Gualing nimbly rolled across the ground, rolling out of the Mutated White Wild Boar's attack range. He took the opportunity to plant both feet on the ground, crouching down, and holding the [fearless tusk] with both hands, he thrust it toward the other leg of the Mutated White Wild Boar, which was not raised but was instead standing on one leg to support its body.

This tusk, which he had obtained from the Fearless Black Wild Boar, looked quite imposing, but holding it in his hands, he really didn't know how to use it for the moment. Hu Gualing could only imagine himself as a wild boar, holding the thick end of the tusk with both hands like he was holding a log to ring a bell, and rammed the sharp end of the tusk toward the Mutated White Wild Boar's leg.

But this tusk was different from a log. A log at least was straight, making it easy to control the direction of the impact, but this tusk was curved. The closer it got to the tip, the greater the curvature, making it very difficult to control the direction of the strike. Hu Gualing aimed at the Mutated White Wild Boar's thigh and rammed it with all his might, only to see the tip of the tusk strike toward the Mutated White Wild Boar's waist instead...

Fortunately, this Mutated White Wild Boar was huge. Hu Gualing was thrusting the fearless fangs while right up against it, so no matter where he stabbed, there was no way he could miss.

-12!

The fearless fangs stabbed into the Mutated White Wild Boar, creating a conspicuous damage number and immediately knocking off a third of the Mutated White Wild Boar's remaining health!

"Well done, Gualing, keep it up!"

"Gualing, keep it up!"

Seeing Hu Gualing suddenly become full of vigor after switching to the fearless fangs, Tang Yao couldn't help but happily join the cheering squad led by Xiao Niao, shouting encouragement for Hu Gualing.

Hu Gualing, however, was stunned after withdrawing the fearless fangs.

He remembered that this thing's attack power was quite low, not even comparable to his steel knuckle duster, and he didn't know how to use this thing either—he was purely just holding the thick end and stabbing wildly at the Mutated White Wild Boar. If the Mutated White Wild Boar hadn't been fat and large enough, he might not even have been able to hit it with that last strike.

Yet, just by stabbing wildly like this, the damage dealt was actually so much higher than the damage caused to the Mutated White Wild Boar when using Farmers Three Punches while wearing the steel knuckle duster? What kind of logic was this!?

Hu Gualing couldn't figure it out for a moment, but the Fearless state could only last 60 seconds. He didn't have time to think about these things, and besides, being able to deal higher damage was ultimately a good thing. Hu Gualing immediately stopped worrying about it and, holding the fearless fangs, thrust them toward the Mutated White Wild Boar's body once again.

After entering the "no-stiffness state," the stiffness time between each of the Mutated White Wild Boar's actions was reduced countless times, to the point where it looked like there was no pause at all to the naked eye. After missing a step, the Mutated White Wild Boar immediately swung its pig hand to swat at Hu Gualing.

Hu Gualing intended to adopt a tactic of trading damage for damage, wanting to finish off the Mutated White Wild Boar within the duration of the Fearless state, so he didn't waste stamina dodging the Mutated White Wild Boar's attacks. While thrusting the fearless fangs into the Mutated White Wild Boar, he was also swatted by the Mutated White Wild Boar's pig hand, which swung down from high above, sending him rolling twice.

-2.

-35.

Two damage numbers appeared one after another above Hu Gualing's and the Mutated White Wild Boar's heads.

Because he was in the Fearless state, Hu Gualing couldn't feel any pain at all. When he was sent flying by the pig hand's strike, he didn't feel a thing, but looking at that glaring -2 damage number that appeared above the Mutated White Wild Boar's head, his expression turned ugly.

"How can this be? Just a moment ago it was 12 damage; even if there is fluctuation in the damage values, it shouldn't be this serious of a difference."

Looking at his own health bar, which was only a tiny sliver, with forty health points, he could at most withstand two more attacks from the Mutated White Wild Boar before falling, yet one attack could only knock off two health points from the Mutated White Wild Boar...

Just when Hu Gualing felt that he was surely going to die this time, he heard Xiao Niao suddenly shout: "Gualing! Stab the green part on its body!"

Green?

Hu Gualing narrowed his eyes slightly, examining the massive body of the Mutated White Wild Boar, which had taken two steps to reach him and was about to raise its pig hand to strike again.

The Mutated White Wild Boar's body was mostly white—white pig skin, white pig hair—but it also had some blue-green patches on it. They looked like they were stained with rotten aquatic plants or something similar. In any case, they were greenish and made people feel a bit wary, so Hu Gualing had not deliberately aimed at those blue-green parts when using Farmers Three Punches during previous battles. On the contrary, he had even consciously or unconsciously avoided these blue-green patches during the fight. After all, these blue-green parts only occupied a very small portion of the Mutated White Wild Boar's body and wouldn't affect normal combat.

But now, Xiao Niao specifically told him to stab these blue-green parts?

Could it be that he saw this was the Mutated White Wild Boar's weak point?

Whether it was or not, Xiao Niao must have seen something unusual!

Hu Gualing didn't have time to overthink. He wrapped both hands around the fearless fangs, changing his previous method of use. He no longer held it, but instead hugged the base of the fangs and raised them high, making the tip of the fangs point downward.

This was to be able to accurately attack the blue-green part on the Mutated White Wild Boar's body.

Hu Gualing himself had also discovered that his attempt to learn how the Fearless Black Wild Boar used its fangs was completely just copying the form without understanding the essence. The reason why wild boars had such great power when they thrust their fangs forward was because the fangs were part of their own bodies, so they naturally used them with ease. However, when he held the fangs with both hands and thrust forward, let alone unleashing their proper power, he wasn't even sure if he could hit the target. Just a moment ago when stabbing the Mutated White Wild Boar, he had clearly aimed at the wild boar's thigh, but ended up stabbing the wild boar's butt...

So, to avoid stabbing the wrong spot again, Hu Gualing simply stopped stabbing. He hugged the fangs, raised his hands, and smashed them down hard at a small blue-green patch on the Mutated White Wild Boar's foot, just like wielding a hoe to dig the ground!

14!

As the fearless fangs smashed into the blue-green patch on the Mutated White Wild Boar's foot, a damage number suddenly popped out.

The three people present were all overjoyed.

Xiao Niao stomped his feet in excitement and said: "One more hit, just the last one left!"

Tang Yao: "Well done, Gualing, keep it up!"

Hu Gualing himself also grinned. Heh, who would have thought that this guy Xiao Niao actually managed to see the weak point of this Mutated White Wild Boar.

However, Hu Gualing was not having an easy time either. When he smashed the Mutated White Wild Boar with the fangs, the Mutated White Wild Boar's pig hand also swung down, swatting him away several body lengths again. Hugging the fearless fangs tightly in his arms, he rolled twice, then braced himself on the ground and struggled to stand up, panting, and took a look at his health points.

"Five points, five health points left... Seems like I'm lucky, didn't die."

Although he was in the Fearless state, the effect of Fearless was only that he couldn't feel pain; he could still experience the feeling of exhaustion and fatigue, and the injuries he had sustained and broken bones would still affect his body as they should.

Compared to him, that Mutated White Wild Boar seemed like the truly Fearless one. It clearly only had a sliver of health left, yet there was still no expression on its pig face. After swatting Hu Gualing away, it still took large strides, stomping heavily on the ground as it approached Hu Gualing, its two pig hands alternating and swinging incessantly in the air.

Hu Gualing leaned on the fearless fangs, trying his best to recover his strength. When the Mutated White Wild Boar walked to within half a meter and its swinging pig hands were already able to harm him, Hu Gualing suddenly leaned forward. He hugged the fearless fangs with both hands, using them as a tool to support his whole body, curled his body into a ball, and rolled two and a half times on the ground at a rather tricky angle. After rolling, he appeared behind the Mutated White Wild Boar in a half-crouched position!

The Mutated White Wild Boar seemed to have sensed something and turned its head to look. With a movement of its waist muscles, it lifted its pig leg and kicked backward.

At this moment, Hu Gualing's health was only in the single digits; if this kick even grazed him, he would surely die.

But Hu Gualing's movements were faster. Half-crouched on the ground, he swung the fearless fangs and smashed them hard onto the small blue-green patch on the Mutated White Wild Boar's foot. -14!

The damage number popped out, the Mutated White Wild Boar's movements stalled, and then its massive body slowly toppled backward.

Hu Gualing watched the direction in which the Mutated White Wild Boar was falling and quickly dodged to the side, only to hear a "boom" sound from behind him.

Turning his head to look, he saw that the last sliver of health of this Mutated White Wild Boar, which was as tall as a story, had been emptied. It collapsed with a bang, kicking up a cloud of dust.
