Wilderness Survival with Druid System-Chapter 378 - 47: Battle
In front of the two of them.
A similarly injured hippo squeezed past the other hippos, blocking the way of a person and a hippo.
However, its injuries were lighter, and it seemed to be in good spirits.
At this moment, it opened its mouth, roaring towards this direction.
It smelled a familiar scent, coming from its former arch-enemy.
The hippo hesitated for a moment.
With intelligence, it felt a slight sense of estrangement from its original group.
It didn’t really want to go back.
It was here only to vent some steam.
But as it spent time with Chen Wen, it gradually realized that humans might not be as strong as it had imagined.
If it involved Chen Wen in its battle, or if he even got hurt.
It would feel very guilty.
As its intelligence gradually grew, the hippo began to understand many things.
Including Chen Wen’s attitude towards it.
It was the first time it had felt such immense goodwill from a strange creature.
The hippo also wanted to repay Chen Wen with kindness.
Thus, even with the thought of making Chen Wen help it vent its anger, it brought Chen Wen here.
But when it came to actually fighting, the hippo hesitated.
However, just as the hippo was hesitating and planning to retreat, Chen Wen placed his hand on the hippo: "Beat it up? Or kill it? I’ll help you!"
"Should we both go at it? Or like when we hunted the crocodile, you lure it, I will be the main attacker?"
The hippo, feeling the sudden heat from Chen Wen’s palm, didn’t know what to say.
It opened its big mouth, emitting a provocative roar: "Beat it up!"
"Alright!"
Chen Wen flipped over and fell into the water from the hippo’s back.
He wasn’t afraid of the high body temperature state; instead, he looked forward to it, battle intent rising!
But he wasn’t recklessly carried away by the battle intent.
"You lead it to the shore, on land my combat power can be at its strongest!"
Said Chen Wen as he quickly swam towards the shore.
The hippo didn’t make a sound, but opened its mouth and rushed towards the young hippo that had driven it away a few days ago.
The young hippo was also fearless, also rushing towards the hippo with its mouth open.
The two hippos charged at each other in the water, stirring up the calm surface as if two giant dragons were battling in the water.
Soon, the turbulent splashes approached, and they collided with their mouths wide open!
Hiss!
Just that moment, the young hippo got injured.
The hippo’s long tusk pierced the young hippo’s lower lip at a very subtle angle.
Scarlet blood immediately spurted out, dripping down along the mouth’s contour.
The young hippo felt the pain, but became even more irritable and fierce.
Relying on its abundant stamina and greater strength, it quickly gained the upper hand in the confrontation.
The hippo, however, used its wisdom and experience to maneuver with the young hippo, inadvertently guiding it towards the shore.
On the riverbank.
Chen Wen was preparing his gear.
He had brought an axe and a spear.
Since the hippo said to beat it up but not kill it, he would respect the hippo’s opinion.
Chen Wen planted the spear in its place, picked up the axe, planning to use the axe handle for combat.
In front of the screen, this battle also attracted a large audience of assistants watching.
"Are they going to hunt the hippo?"
One of the contestant’s assistants asked incredulously.
Lin Jiawei turned back to look, it was Ivan’s assistant.
He recalled the events of last night.
Ivan, while resting, was driven away by a hippo that came ashore.
Faced with the hippo’s threat, Ivan, who had just laid down, angrily got up.
He grabbed his food and gear, moved away from the hippo, and spent the night in a crooked tree.
Quite uncomfortable.
Therefore, upon seeing Chen Wen ready to battle with the hippo, Ivan’s assistant felt that Chen Wen didn’t seem to be in the same league as Ivan.
One ran from the hippos, while the other proactively provoked the hippo leader.
Too exaggerated!
However, Lin Jiawei didn’t provoke Ivan’s assistant, instead saying: "It’s not necessarily a hunt, Chen Wen doesn’t have such a heavy killing intent."
Not a hunt?
Then what is he doing?
Beating up a hippo to show his strength?
...
As the young hippo was gradually lured to the shore by the hippo, the battle between the two massive beasts began to heat up.
Their mouths became somewhat scarlet, dyed by the blood.
Seeing the state of the hippo, Chen Wen felt a slight heartache.
Those injuries weren’t minor!
Blood mixed with the river water, continuously flowing downwards.
Not flowing, dripping, but flowing!
Too brutal!
Compared to Chen Wen.
The two hippos, with their beastly nature unleashed, were indifferent to these wounds.
The hippo tilted its head again, its forward tusks like awls, piercing into the young hippo’s lower lip.
With a fierce swing of the head by the hippo.
With a tearing sound.
A chunk of meat the size of a fist was ripped from the young hippo’s lower jaw by the tusks.
Chen Wen shuddered.
If a regular human were to take such a move, they’d probably pass out from the pain!
Seeing the young hippo getting closer, Chen Wen, in his high body temperature state, silently lifted the axe and charged!
It’s on!
A human charging a hippo with a cold weapon!
The production team couldn’t help but hold their breaths.
No matter the outcome, just the courage to charge a hippo is enough to inspire awe in everyone.
This is a fearless survivor!
Several contestant assistants who were trying to limit Chen Wen exchanged glances, eyes filled with confusion.
Such a person, can they truly be limited just by mere restrictions?
This guy and their contestants are simply not on the same level!
In any show with a PVP segment, avoid Chen Wen!
Many contestant assistants thought to themselves.
...
Chen Wen’s charge naturally attracted the attention of both hippos.
To the hippo, for a friend like Chen Wen to go this far.
It felt the only way to repay Chen Wen was with its life!
The hippo’s battle spirit soared, as if it returned to the moment of vying for the leadership of the herd in its youth.
Its now-weakening body exploded with endless potential under the heightened spirit.
The hippo fiercely rammed into the young hippo, willing to exchange injury for injury, just to prevent the young hippo from having the chance to hurt Chen Wen.
Chen Wen was even more ferocious, his eyes locked onto the young hippo’s eyes.
[Intimidation]!
The intimidation from the Northeast Tiger at this moment affected the young hippo.
The young hippo, under Chen Wen’s intimidation, gradually became fearful.
It couldn’t understand.
Why did such a frail-looking creature bring such a terrifying feeling, even more so than a lion?
But fear was fear, the beastly nature of the young hippo remained.
It bit towards the front half of the hippo’s body, tusks stabbing, blood flowing along the yellow-black tusks.
The hippo was unwilling to back down, biting the young hippo on the shoulder in return.
The war between the two giant beasts entered a white-hot stage after Chen Wen joined.
But this stage didn’t last long.
With Chen Wen lifting the axe, striking the young hippo’s lower jaw with the axe handle.
The young hippo snapped into some clarity.
But Chen Wen’s attack wasn’t over.
He grabbed onto the hippo’s body, jumped up with force, once again swinging the axe towards the side of the young hippo’s head, aiming for the face.
Thud!
A dull sound.
Painful!
Many contestant assistants couldn’t help but rub their faces.
The young hippo’s eyes cleared a bit.
It began to struggle, intending to break free from the hippo’s entanglement and fight in the water again.
However, under [Intimidation], the more you do, the more mistakes you make.
Not paying attention, the young hippo was knocked off balance by the exploding battle burst of the hippo.
Its body wobbled, the effect of its massive weight causing it to stumble, falling to the ground.
Chen Wen couldn’t miss such an opportunity.
He stepped forward, swung the axe, aiming at the young hippo’s tusk, and struck down.
The young hippo’s tusk broke with a snap.
