Chapter 716: Chapter 435: Coercion, What Good Luck!!

Never mind the rookie Exotic Beast Hunter with the buzz cut, who was new to the profession; even his seniors, who had been in the business for years, had never encountered a Second Order High Rank Mutant Beast.

"My luck’s not bad today! I just took care of a Second Order Middle Stage Mutant Beast, and now an even stronger one shows up."

In stark contrast to the Exotic Beast Hunters’ panicked and flustered reactions, Lin Li’s calm and collected demeanor stood out.

HISS...

The Silver Ringed Snake Beast, radiating the Spiritual Energy Waves of a Second Order High Rank creature, coiled its body and flicked its forked tongue. It stared down at the trembling humans, its eyes glinting with contempt.

It had been dozing in the tall grass nearby when it suddenly heard the sounds of a fierce battle. It had come over to see what was going on.

It hadn’t expected its luck to be this good. Finding several delicious, appetizing humans was a truly pleasant surprise.

"It’s over. We’re dead for sure." The rookie Exotic Beast Hunter, who was only at Tier One Peak, stared at the massive Mutant Beast that made no attempt to hide its malice. His heart pounded in his chest, and his legs began to shake uncontrollably.

Of course, it wasn’t just the buzz-cut rookie who was losing his composure. The state of his seniors at that moment wasn’t much better.

Just as the Exotic Beast Hunters were thrown into a state of panic by the sudden appearance of the Second Order High Rank Silver Ringed Snake Beast, a perfectly composed Lin Li turned to them and spoke.

"When I start fighting it, I don’t want to be distracted by looking after you. So you all need to get out of here right now."

"Huh?!!!" The flustered Exotic Beast Hunters were all stunned for a moment after hearing what Lin Li said.

’Even if we all attack together, we’re no match for a Second Order High Rank Silver Ringed Snake Beast,’ they thought. ’And if we try to run now, there’s no way we’ll escape. But this young man... it sounds like he thinks he can handle it on his own.’

"Did you not understand what I said? I mean you should leave, now." Seeing that the Exotic Beast Hunters had no intention of leaving, Lin Li frowned slightly and urged them again.

"Young man, this is a Second Order High Rank Mutant Beast! Even if we run now, if it decides to chase us, there’s no way we can escape it," said the Exotic Beast Hunter with the receding hairline, his expression bitter.

"Just run. I’ll hold it back for you..." Lin Li said casually, his tone so natural it was as if he were talking about something trivial.

"This..." Hearing this, the Exotic Beast Hunters exchanged glances, their faces full of hesitation. Clearly, Lin Li’s assurance hadn’t given them enough confidence.

HISS...

Seeing these humans ignore it and brazenly discuss their escape right in front of it, the ferocious Silver Ringed Snake Beast felt humiliated. It let out a sharp, furious roar.

It was precisely this roar that jolted the hesitant Exotic Beast Hunters. Their will to survive erupted.

"Hurry up and go! Stop dawdling here. If you drag this out any longer, I’m not going to bother with you."

This time, spurred on by Lin Li’s urging, the Exotic Beast Hunters no longer hesitated. They turned and fled for their lives in the direction of the safe zone.

As they scrambled to escape, the strongest member of the Exotic Beast Hunter team—the one at Second Order Middle Stage with the receding hairline—glanced back and shouted to Lin Li.

"Young man, you have to hold on! We’re going to get help...!"
