Chapter 38 The Strange Beast Across the River
Xu Han walked out of the west gate of the city.
From a distance, he could see a wide river rushing past not far away.
The river was about 100 meters wide.
The river was surrounded by gravel beaches.
There were many crabs and crustaceans crawling on the gravel beaches.
There were many people wearing wizard robes and holding magic wands teaming up to fight monsters.
Xu Han took a look.
These were all high school students who had just awakened like himself.
Xu Han ignored the beasts here.
The closer to Donghai City, the lower the level of the beasts.
Even if he killed them, he would not have any experience and would only waste time.
He walked forward along the Hengjiang River.
After walking more than ten kilometers.
There were fewer people leveling up around.
Only a few people were leveling up.
Their target was a beast called the water turtle.
The water turtle moved very slowly, and its only way of attacking was to spray water arrows.
Once hit by a water arrow, the damage caused was very terrifying.
However, as long as the agility points were slightly higher, it could be easily avoided.
With a magic profession, the upgrade speed is very fast.
Xu Han looked at the shore in front of him.
A crab as big as a cow was lying on the water, enjoying the river water.
He used the exploration eye to take a look.
[Name: Giant Claw Crab]
[Race: Crustacean]
[Level: 20]
[Skill 1: Bubble Spray LV.1 (Giant Claw Crab sprays bubbles to attack the enemy, and the enemy hit will fall into the bubble, cooling time 3 minutes)]
[Skill 2: Pinch LV.1 (Giant Claw Crab swings its claws to clamp the enemy and directly pinches off, which can destroy the opponent's defense, cooling time 1 minute)]
It's just an ordinary monster.
Xu Han walked straight towards the giant claw crab.
Several people who were leveling up around him saw that Xu Han dared to challenge the giant claw crab alone.
They all cast mocking eyes.
"This kid is really brave. He dares to come here alone to fight the giant crab?"
"I think he can't even break the giant crab's defense. What a joke."
"He is not a magic profession, and he doesn't form a team. He dares to come to Hengjiang to level up? I really don't know what he thinks in his mind?"
Xu Han walked straight towards the giant crab.
The giant crab also saw the uninvited guest in front of it.
The pair of claws that were almost as big as an adult kept opening and closing.
A pair of eyes stared at Xu Han.
Its eight legs swung quickly, like a high-speed train, rushing towards Xu Han.
Xu Han raised his right hand expressionlessly.
Dense scales covered his palm.
Gradually turned into a dragon claw.
He stomped his foot hard, and his body was like an arrow, and he smashed the giant crab with one claw without any fancy moves!
Bang!
The dragon claw was like a knife cutting tofu, easily smashing the shell on the giant crab's abdomen.
Hit the heart!
The blood volume of the giant crab was instantly reduced to zero.
The huge body slowly fell to the ground.
Everyone around was stunned.
"What the hell? Who is this guy? He killed the giant crab with one punch!"
"Who is this guy? Is he a master from another city?"
"I've been in Hengjiang for so long, and I've never seen such a person!"
"This guy looks so young, maybe he is a student of Donghai Professional University?"
Everyone talked about it.
However, Xu Han shook his head.
"No, too little experience, keep going forward."
He cut off a crab claw of the giant crab and stuffed it into his backpack.
Then he walked straight forward.
Seeing this, the others widened their eyes, and their eyeballs almost fell to the ground.
"Wait, why is he going forward? Is he going to die?"
"Going forward, it's the upper reaches of Hengjiang River. I heard that the upper reaches are haunted by beasts of more than level 30, and the rumors about the water monster are very fierce recently!"
"The Donghai City government has issued a notice not to go to the upper reaches of Hengjiang River. Doesn't he know?"
"Should I remind him?"
"Remind him."
One of them shouted at Xu Han: "Hey, brother! Don't go forward!"
"The upper reaches of Hengjiang River are ahead, and the beasts are of very high level!"
Xu Han stopped and looked back at the few people who were fighting monsters and leveling up, and smiled kindly.
This group of people is very similar to the uncle he met in the east of the city.
"I'll go and take a look and come back. Thanks for the reminder."
Xu Han said, and walked straight upstream.
Seeing this, the others shook their heads and sighed, and continued to kill the beasts.
Not long after Xu Han walked over.
A group of five people slowly walked over from the downstream direction.
The leader was a magician wearing a dark purple wizard robe.
He had a feminine face and a wolf tail behind his head, which made him look like a feminine handsome guy.
He held a staff in his hand.
A fist-sized dark purple crystal was inlaid on the top of the staff.
Arcs of electricity were jumping around the crystal.
It made a "crackling" sound.
When the people around saw the dark purple crystal on the staff, their eyes widened.
This crystal alone was worth nearly a million!
The man's eyes kept scanning the surroundings, full of disdain.
Following behind him were four strong men.
Two of them held long swords and two held heavy shields, which seemed to have full defensive power.
"That water monster, is it here?"
He looked at the gentle Hengjiang River below and asked impatiently.
"The officials of Donghai City are really a bunch of rubbish. They can't even deal with a small water monster."
"But think about it and you can understand. There are not many masters in a small place like Donghai City, and most of them are not good at dealing with water monsters."
"It's inevitable to be stumped by a water monster."
A strong man with a sword behind him hurriedly said: "Master, it's not here, the water monster is upstream."
The man nodded impatiently: "Okay, okay, then let's go quickly!"
"I should have taken a taxi earlier. It's really troublesome to walk such a long way."
With that, the two continued to walk upstream together.
...
Xu Han slowly came to the upstream area.
There were almost no people in the upstream area.
There were dense forests all around.
And the surging river water seemed to be pouring out from a cave.
On both sides of the Hengjiang River, there were dozens of huge crabs lying.
This crab is a circle larger than the giant claw crab.
However, the crab claws are not as big as the giant crab claws.
It's just that this crab exudes a deep green luster all over, like jade.
Xu Han took a look with the Eye of Exploration.
[Name: Blue Rock Crab]
[Race: Crustacean]

[Skill 2: Tyranny LV.1 (The blue rock crab collides with the enemy, and the enemy hit will suffer terrible damage, cooling time 10 minutes)]
