Chapter 7

Chen Yihan thought to himself, "What the hell do I know what to do!"

A shut-in, let alone fixing a car, he had barely driven one.

Chen Yihan scratched his head and said awkwardly, "I'm not really familiar with cars."

Alicia clearly didn't believe him, as if every man should naturally be a driver and mechanic: "Oh my God, you can't fix a car? That's unbelievable!"

Chen Yihan didn't know how to respond to her, and he was too lazy to argue, so he got straight to the point: "Can you fix it?"

"Yeah, it's an old problem," Alicia nodded. "I think it's the ignition coil. We need to open the hood to check."

"Let's go down and take a look." Chen Yihan said as he opened the car door and got out first.

As soon as he got out of the car, Chen Yihan had a sense of danger. This feeling was very peculiar, hard to describe, but Chen Yihan knew that this uncomfortable feeling was a warning of danger.

Without a moment's hesitation, Chen Yihan immediately took out a protective suit from the Main God Medal and equipped it.

Rookie Protective Suit: A one-time item that forms a 200-point energy shield around the body when worn. The shield disappears when the energy is depleted.

Just as he put on the rookie protective suit, a monster similar to a dog rushed out from the thick fog. This monster was larger than a Tibetan Mastiff but had less fur, looking like a bald, muscle-bound dog.

Chen Yihan's description of the monster was not very flattering, but it was very fast, charging straight at him and leaping with all its might.

"Shit!" Chen Yihan had no practical combat experience, but fortunately, his mental fortitude was decent, and he didn't freeze in the sudden situation. He hastily rolled to the right, barely avoiding the attack.

If he were experienced and quick to react, he would have drawn his gun and fired while dodging. But Chen Yihan was a rookie, and it wasn't until he stopped that he remembered to take out the gun from the Main God Medal's space.

Rookie Gun: A one-time consumable item for the rookie mission scenario, which disappears after the rookie mission. Firing rate: 1 shot per second, effective range: 50 meters, no level, ordinary bullets: infinite, base damage: 7.

A rookie package, costing 50 blood points, included these two items.

If taken separately, these two items were not particularly outstanding, and they were one-time items that would disappear after the mission. However, in terms of cost-effectiveness, these two rookie items were far superior to other equipment.

Especially this rookie gun, with infinite bullets, greatly ensured the sustainability of attacks.

The bald dog missed its leap and suddenly stopped, its blood-red eyes glaring fiercely at the human in front of it, growling.

Chen Yihan didn't wait for the enemy to make a move, just like watching Japanese life shows at home, he raised his gun and fired!

Fortunately, this rookie gun had a built-in silencer, and with three muffled "puffs," a blood flower bloomed on the monster's body. The remaining two bullets hit the monster's front and the ground, splashing a small piece of gravel.

"Damn!" Chen Yihan didn't expect that at such close range, he only hit the target with one of his three shots. It felt nothing like playing a zombie game, and he hadn't realized the recoil of a real gun was so strong.

The monster finally became agitated and furious, closing the distance in a few leaps. It didn't charge straight, fearing the prey would dodge again, but instead leaped to the side and then pounced at Chen Yihan's right hand.

Chen Yihan had already stood up and cast a detection spell as it leaped, then ran to the left.

On the right was the frightened Alicia, so Chen Yihan couldn't run that way and had to choose to hide in the fog on the left.

This time, Chen Yihan wasn't so lucky, and his right arm was scratched by the monster's claws.

However, this scratch reduced his rookie protective suit's energy by 2 points. In other words, just a light scratch from the monster would cost Chen Yihan 2 points of health.

If it pounced and bit his neck, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chen Yihan didn't have time to think as a stream of information flooded his mind.

"Vigang Beast, Attack: 8-15, Defense: 3, Health: 120. Skills: 1. Fierce Leap: Leap at an appropriate distance and pounce on the enemy, causing damage and a chance to stun. 2. Fierce Claw: Use two strong, sharp front claws to tear the enemy, with a chance to cause continuous bleeding. 3. Fierce Bite: Use sharp teeth to bite the enemy, causing significant damage and 100% chance to cause continuous bleeding."

What kind of beast is this Vigang Beast?

Chen Yihan wouldn't admit that his cultural level was low; he just wasn't familiar with the character.

This monster's name was so unimpressive, it would have been better to call it a stray dog or a rabid dog, which would be more fitting.

But thinking was one thing, and Chen Yihan was on high alert. Its three skills were no joke. The previous attack was probably due to luck, but if he had been hit by the Fierce Claw, he would have taken at least 15 points of damage.

The Vigang Beast's maximum attack was 15 points, but if hit by the Fierce Claw, Chen Yihan would take at least 15 points of damage. This was because, from his experience in various online games, the displayed attack was just the base attack, and when combined with skills, the damage would be stronger.

The Vigang Beast had attack skills, but Chen Yihan didn't. The rookie gun only had ordinary bullets with a fixed damage of 7 points. The Vigang Beast's defense was 3, so each attack would only cause 4 points of damage. Unless he got lucky and found its weak point, he would need to fire 30 shots to deplete its 120 health points, assuming every shot hit.

But would the Vigang Beast stand there and let him fire 30 shots? The answer was obvious.

Chen Yihan's attributes were twice as strong, and his physical condition was incomparable to before. The first time he fired, he was affected by the recoil. This time, he performed better, dodged, and fired, hitting the target with two consecutive shots.

The Vigang Beast clearly felt the pain, turned around, and roared angrily, then charged at Chen Yihan like a sharp black light.

As the Vigang Beast turned, Chen Yihan fired two more shots, then without dodging, fired two more at the Vigang Beast.

One of the shots, by sheer luck, hit the Vigang Beast's eye. Chen Yihan swore to the heavens that he had aimed for its neck.

This hit reduced the Vigang Beast's health by 10 points. However, its speed didn't decrease; it even seemed to accelerate as it continued to charge at Chen Yihan.

Chen Yihan had already calculated that when the Vigang Beast pounced, he could roll to the side and the pounce would miss. Indeed, Chen Yihan narrowly avoided the attack and then fired several more shots at the Vigang Beast.

In this way, Chen Yihan dodged and fired, and in less than a minute, he had reduced the Vigang Beast's health by 80 points.

Chen Yihan was now full of confidence, drawing from his experience in various online games. As long as the enemy's attacks had a pattern, he could exploit that pattern to find weaknesses and win without taking damage.

However, that was just in online games, where the monsters were programmed and static. The Vigang Beast was alive, with its own thoughts and abilities.

Sure enough, just as Chen Yihan was waiting for the Vigang Beast to pounce and then dodge, the Vigang Beast didn't pounce but instead ran at him with incredible speed.

"Shit!" Chen Yihan cursed, quickly raising his gun to fire. If he dodged, he would end up running with the Vigang Beast chasing him. So Chen Yihan didn't run, and in these short three seconds, three bullets hit the Vigang Beast's body, and one hit its hind leg.

This caused the Vigang Beast to stumble, and Chen Yihan fired another shot, then dodged to the side.

Chen Yihan thought that due to the momentum of the charge, the Vigang Beast would not be able to stop and would continue to rush forward a short distance. However, he underestimated the Vigang Beast's agility.

When the Vigang Beast wasn't using its Fierce Leap, it was highly agile. Due to the injury from Chen Yihan's shot, its movement was slowed, but it turned as smoothly as flowing water.

Just as Chen Yihan dodged to the side and raised his gun to fire, the Vigang Beast, which was still quite large, suddenly braked and quickly changed direction, then leaped and pounced at Chen Yihan with wild force.

Chen Yihan didn't have time to react, and even if he had, he couldn't have avoided the sudden pounce.

"Roar!"

The Vigang Beast, like a general about to win a battle, pounced on Chen Yihan with a fierce look, opening its bloody mouth to bite at his neck.

The Vigang Beast's teeth were incredibly sharp, and to Chen Yihan, they looked like the scythe of death swinging toward him.

Chen Yihan's lips turned white, his face turned purple, and cold sweat drenched his back. He felt a sense of despair.

"Damn, I'm done for!"
