Chapter 24

Just a joke with Auntie Fat, Wang Ge wouldn't come back to Auntie Fat's place for at least a month. He himself felt that his eating was too terrifying; he only ate to about eight-tenths full after splitting it into two meals. If he had eaten until completely full at one place, Wang Ge estimated that the people would have called the police.

He was considering whether to split a meal into several rounds and eat at different places to avoid drawing attention. However, this wasn't a good solution either, as he would have nothing to do all day except eat and travel to eat.

But what other good methods were there? Wang Ge was both happy and depressed. He was happy that his injuries could be healed by eating, but depressed that eating had become a new problem.

Eating to eight-tenths full had almost healed Wang Ge's injuries, and the most noticeable bruise on his forehead had faded. Finally, he could return home with peace of mind.

The next morning, Wang Ge was washing his face in the bathroom when he heard Wang Fei call out, "Bro, you have a message!"

"Uh!" Wang Ge didn't even bother to wipe his face and ran out, dripping wet. His message contained a secret, and he couldn't let Wang Fei see it.

Wang Fei was still snuggling in bed, and she didn't have the habit of peeking at Wang Ge's messages. She said casually, "Bro, who's the message from, to make you so anxious?"

Wang Ge wiped his wet hands on his clothes and picked up the communication watch on the table, smiling, "It's Curly, who else?"

If it's Curly, why are you so anxious? Wang Fei felt suspicious and couldn't help but probe, "Hehe, I don't think so. Could it be a girl?"

"Where did you get that idea? Go back to sleep!" Wang Ge laughed and shot back, then took the communication watch and went to the bathroom.

Afraid that Wang Fei would hear, Wang Ge chose to read the message in text form. It turned out to be a task notification from the black market. This was a small app on the communication watch, pre-set to select tasks, and when a suitable task appeared, it would be sent as a message.

【Four-Faced Mountain】, 【Moon Rabbit】 pair.

Reward: 1,000 Solar Coins.

Do you accept the task?

1,000 Solar Coins, and Wang Ge accepted it without hesitation. In the past, this was what he earned in five days, and even now, 1,000 Solar Coins was not a small amount.

The Moon Rabbit is a mutated rabbit, and it only exists on Four-Faced Mountain in the entire Mountain City base.

Compared to ordinary white rabbits, the Moon Rabbit has a special feature: it emits a bright, moon-like glow throughout the night, making it very beautiful. Young ladies from wealthy families like to keep a Moon Rabbit as a pet, as it looks very high-end and luxurious.

The reason Moon Rabbits are hard to catch is that there are fierce insect beasts on Four-Faced Mountain.

Insect beasts are different from mutated beasts. Mutated beasts are wild animals that have mutated since the nuclear war, while insect beasts are monsters infected or crossbred by the insect race. Although they have different appearances, they share a common characteristic: they are bloodthirsty and ferocious!

If it were in the past, Wang Ge would have to think twice before taking on this task, considering whether he would have the life to earn the money. But now, he is a Level 6 life form and has experienced several life-and-death battles, so he is more daring.

No matter how dangerous Four-Faced Mountain is, it can't be more dangerous than fighting a giant bear, right?

After buying breakfast for Wang Fei, Wang Ge secretly put on his biological backpack and went out. This biological backpack is the most suitable for poachers. Although it looks like a full, bulging backpack, it is actually equivalent to an animal cage, and the environment inside is very suitable for animals, with some soundproofing.

The Moon Rabbit is not a protected animal, but Four-Faced Mountain is a no-hunting zone. This is not to protect the animals, but to protect the hunters.

It is not uncommon for hunters to be killed by insect beasts on Four-Faced Mountain, but the ban is not strictly enforced. As the saying goes, "People die for wealth, birds die for food."

Wang Ge took his old motorcycle and got into a familiar black car. After being taken out of the south gate of the Mountain City base, Wang Ge got off and rode his old motorcycle alone towards Four-Faced Mountain.

At the foot of Four-Faced Mountain, he found a strangely shaped large rock, hid his motorcycle in the grass behind it, and climbed up Four-Faced Mountain with his biological backpack.

Four-Faced Mountain was a tourist destination at the beginning of the century, but now it can be described as a desolate wilderness, with few human traces on the mountain.

Wang Ge did not take the easy path up the mountain but chose to walk in areas with ample sunlight and dense grass, where Moon Rabbits usually appear.

However, such places also generally represent more danger. After all, humans do not have the keen senses of wild animals. Wang Ge held his concentrated fire gun with both hands, carefully and cautiously moving through the waist-high wild grass, his sharp eyes searching for the small white figure that might appear at any moment.

Suddenly, there was movement in the grass ahead. It didn't seem to be caused by the wind but rather by a hidden small animal.

Wang Ge's heart stirred, and he cautiously approached. When he parted the grass and saw what it was, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. It was a round, cow-calf-sized hedgehog.

This was not Wang Ge's target for today, and the hedgehog's size clearly indicated it was a mutated one, which was not to be trifled with. Wang Ge decided to change direction and continue searching.

But at that moment, the hedgehog had already noticed Wang Ge. Under normal circumstances, hedgehogs do not attack humans, but mutated hedgehogs are highly aggressive.

"Zhi zhi—" The mutated hedgehog made a sharp, ear-piercing sound, then curled up into a ball, its spines, about a foot long, standing up, making it look like a large grinding wheel.

Wang Ge was startled. He had encountered mutated hedgehogs before and knew how dangerous they were. He tried to retreat quietly, but he was still discovered. Moreover, the mutated hedgehogs he had encountered before were not this large. He quickly ran away.

The mutated hedgehog rolled towards Wang Ge, and because it was on higher ground, it rolled down quickly and urgently. Its spines, like iron, left a deep groove on the ground, and the grass it passed over was cut by the sharp spines, like an automatic lawnmower.

Fortunately, Wang Ge reacted quickly. He ran and zigzagged, then ran up the mountain after passing the mutated hedgehog.

The mutated hedgehog rolled down quickly but moved slowly when going uphill. With Wang Ge now a Level 6 life form, his speed of eight seconds and forty-five hundred meters was fast even when climbing the mountain. Using the cover of trees and grass, Wang Ge accelerated and sprinted, leaving the mutated hedgehog far behind.

But Wang Ge did not dare to stop. He knew that mutated hedgehogs were vengeful, so he ran for at least a few kilometers before feeling safe enough to stop.

Fortunately, Wang Ge had often poached and was good at observing and learning. Otherwise, if he had encountered a mutated hedgehog without experience, he might have been pierced like a sieve.

Wang Ge remained vigilant and carefully searched the mountain for a long time. He encountered several mutated beasts along the way, but with his rich experience, he managed to avoid danger.

It was already noon when Wang Ge found a shady spot and took out the large pancake he had bought in the morning to eat. It was then that he discovered the Moon Rabbit's whereabouts.

It was a small burrow at the base of a tree. Wang Ge was sitting at the base of the tree, eating the pancake, and hadn't noticed the burrow until some soil blocks suddenly flew out of it.

Wang Ge realized that there was a small animal in the burrow, but he didn't know what it was. He continued eating while patiently waiting.

After a while, Wang Ge saw a white rabbit timidly emerge from the burrow.

Wang Ge carefully observed. The Moon Rabbit has a unique trait: it does not get dirty. Even if it rolls in coal ash, it will come out clean and spotless.

This white rabbit was covered in dirt, clearly not a Moon Rabbit. Wang Ge felt a bit disappointed and was about to leave after finishing his pancake when, two minutes later, another white rabbit ran over and entered the burrow.

But a few minutes later, this white rabbit also emerged, covered in dirt, and ran away dejectedly.

Wang Ge became curious. He quickly connected to the internet on his communication watch and began searching for information about Moon Rabbits.

The communication watch also has the function of a portable optical brain. Even though Wang Ge was a novice, he could still perform simple online searches.

During the mating season, Moon Rabbits emit a unique scent that only rabbits can detect, to attract male rabbits of the same species.

However, Moon female rabbits also strongly attract ordinary white rabbits, so ordinary white rabbits will also invade the home of Moon female rabbits to compete for mating rights.

If there are no male Moon Rabbits, due to the rarity of Moon Rabbits, the female Moon Rabbit may reluctantly choose to mate with an ordinary white rabbit during the later part of the mating season.

Could it be... the burrow is the home of a female Moon Rabbit? Wang Ge's eyes sparkled with excitement. He hid in the grass and watched from a distance.

Soon, another white rabbit ran over. When Wang Ge saw this white rabbit, he immediately became elated. Other white rabbits inevitably get dirty, but this one was snow-white, even its four paws were spotless.

It's a male Moon Rabbit!

Wang Ge excitedly waited for the male Moon Rabbit to enter the burrow, then quickly jumped out of the grass, took out a net and a small bottle from his backpack.

He first set up the net at the entrance of the burrow, then opened the small bottle. The bottle contained the expensive "Fairy Perfume," which is said to make women irresistible to men, with one milliliter worth 100 Solar Coins!

Moon Rabbits are extremely fond of the scent of Fairy Perfume, a discovery made by the wealthy young ladies who keep Moon Rabbits as pets.

Soon, a male and a female Moon Rabbit were lured out of the burrow by the Fairy Perfume, rushing out like housewives in a supermarket grabbing discounted vegetables, and both ended up in the net.

Wang Ge smiled, put the two Moon Rabbits into the biological backpack, and then picked up the small bottle of Fairy Perfume. Just as he was about to put the cap back on, he suddenly felt a sense of extreme danger, as if he was being watched by a fierce beast.

He stiffened and slowly raised his head. Ten meters away, in the dense forest, a monster was staring at him coldly, its eyes filled with a merciless, murderous intent.

The monster looked like a dog but was covered in a beetle-like shell, shiny and black, with sharp bone spines at the joints. Its tail was covered with inch-long, sharp, backward-facing spines, looking like a mace.

Most terrifying of all, its mouth split into four petals, filled with crisscrossing, sharp teeth, making it look terrifying!

Seeing it, Wang Ge couldn't help but draw a deep breath—Insect Beast!
