Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 97: The System is Awesome

The tiger pinned the boar’s head with a paw, grinding it back and forth. His furry face held an unmistakable look of smugness.

Wu Yue watched with a deadpan expression. ’So this is what they mean by grinding someone into the dust, literally.’

"Are you okay, little female?"

Wu Yue scoffed. "Alright? I was so scared I nearly peed myself!"

The Beastman’s front paw twitched, and he nearly released the boar’s head. He quickly resumed grinding it into the dirt.

He stared at the little female before him, his face a mask of shock. "Pee... Scared enough to pee yourself!"

With that, his gaze fell to her exposed legs, his expression one of utter disillusionment.

’...There aren’t any suspicious wet spots, though?’

His tiger head lowered slightly as he sniffed the air, his furry face scrunched in confusion.

’There’s no suspicious smell, either.’

The corner of Wu Yue’s mouth twitched furiously. "Stop sniffing. I wasn’t at the peeing-myself stage *yet*."

’This big tiger is just too much...’

Wu Yue’s skinny little fists were itching for a fight. She desperately wanted to smash this damn Beastman’s tiger head in.

"What should we do with this wild boar? If we kill it, the smell of blood might attract other predators. Why don’t we come back to find the poisonous grass another day?"

A glimmer of hope appeared in Wu Yue’s eyes.

’Please say another day. Why bother with poisonous grass? Isn’t a good old-fashioned beatdown more satisfying?’

’Why bother with poisonous grass when you can solve the problem with brute force?’

The powerful Snow Tiger tilted his head and slightly lifted the paw pinning the wild boar.

A flicker of joy seemed to flash through the wild boar’s beady black eyes. ’Is this Beastman going to let me go? This is a pig’s lucky day...’

Nearby, the same look of pleasant surprise flashed through Wu Yue’s wide, round eyes. ’Is he going to kill the pig so we can go home?’

Their eyes were different shapes, but they shared the exact same look of hopeful relief!

But after lifting slightly, the snow-white tiger paw slammed down with even greater force.

The wild boar, still celebrating its luck, didn’t even have time to get up before its head lolled to the side and it breathed its last.

The Beastman shook his paw. "There. No smell of blood."

’After all, I am the Great General of an entire nation. Killing a pig without spilling a drop of blood is a simple matter.’

His tiger face was pure pride!

Wu Yue: "..."

The dead boar: "..."

’Turns out we were the clowns all along...’

The Snow Tiger’s body was enveloped in a halo of light, and moments later, Yuan Lang’s handsome face appeared before Wu Yue’s eyes.

"So, little female, did you find it?"

Wu Yue’s expression was wooden. "I’d just reached the bushes over there when I ran into this wild boar."

Upon hearing her words, Yuan Lang turned. "Let’s go. I’ll go with you."

Wu Yue followed stiffly behind the Beastman, feeling as if she was slowly poking holes in her own grand boasts.

The dense bushes had been completely ravaged by the wild boar. On the other side, the boar had even dug several large pits in its search for food.

Wu Yue said as she followed the Beastman through the mangled bushes, "These wild boars are really so destructive..."

"Huh?" Her gaze suddenly locked onto a pitch-black "lump of dirt."

It looked like a lump of dirt, but it seemed to have been gnawed on by the wild boar, revealing a clean, milky-white surface.

Except for its size, the thing looked exactly like a taro root.

’Moreover, if the wild boar could eat it, that must mean it isn’t poisonous.’

"System, submit the ’discover new food’ quest."

"Ding! Please wait, Host. System analysis in progress."

Wu Yue: "..."

’So, you damn system, why the hell didn’t you answer me when I called for you earlier!’

"Analysis complete. This is a root vegetable containing mild toxins. Please name it, Host."

’It really won’t answer anything that isn’t quest-related. This strictly-business damn system is just the best, isn’t it!’
