My Mysterious Left Hand

In the living room, the carcass of a huge beast appeared out of nowhere.

Li Chen concentrated the power of Geng metal in his palm and gently sliced ​​open the beast's corpse.

The power of Geng metal was too strong, and its sharpness was unparalleled. Even though the beast's fur was very tough, it was easily cut through, with almost no resistance.

He specifically cut off the best parts of the meat, weighing several hundred pounds.

Then, he began to collect the aroma and nutritional properties of the food, and incorporated these properties into the other pieces of meat that he had cut off.

Li Chen only stopped collecting the carcass of the beast until it was completely reduced to ashes, and then began cooking.

The rice was still regular rice, but the dishes were made with the meat of wild beasts, which had both nutritional and aromatic properties. They were incredibly fragrant and contained a huge amount of energy.

If this kind of meat were sold, countless people would probably be willing to pay a high price to buy it. Wealthy people should be willing to treat it as a high-end food and eat it for their daily meals.

After the meal, Li Chen continued to study the two sets of cultivation techniques.

One of the sets came from Black Sheep Village and was a human cultivation technique, which he could directly practice.

However, his physical body was now too powerful, and this technique could not even shake his qi and blood, something he had never thought of before.

The other method was obtained from the dragon deer. The training method involved the dragon deer's instinctive breathing, eating some special herbs, and various training such as running.

This is not suitable for human cultivation and needs to be modified.

However, Li Chen only had these two sets of cultivation techniques. His other basic knowledge was not solid, and he didn't even have any basic knowledge of cultivation at all. He was completely clueless.

Even with his current remarkable comprehension, he was still at a loss as to where to begin.

He even studied the basic knowledge of formations he obtained from Black Sheep Village, but this information was about formations and had nothing to do with cultivation.

"Buzzing..."

In the afternoon, a sudden burst of intense wing flapping could be heard outside, and in the distance, a barrage of gunfire could be heard.

Li Chen was startled and quickly went outside, where he saw a large swarm of insects flying in from afar, like dark clouds covering the sky.

There were gunshots and explosions coming from the direction of the back mountain; it must be the military taking action.

"Why are there so many bugs now? Has the passage in the back mountain been lost?"

He frowned slightly.

It wasn't just insects; there were also some extremely ferocious birds of prey, with wingspans of only one or two meters, but astonishing flight speeds.

Just then, a fierce bird spotted him and suddenly swooped down from the sky with lightning speed.

Li Chen's eyes turned cold, and he threw a punch, causing the air to be compressed wildly.

"Bang!"

The terrifying force of the punch was overwhelming. The ferocious bird was blown apart just two meters away, its blood, bones, and feathers flying everywhere.

Ignoring these things, he looked up again at the other ferocious birds, intending to kill them.

However, he lacked ranged attack methods, and his flames could not be released that far.

"Help!"

"How can there be so many bugs?!"

Screams and cries for help came from afar; they were from villagers who hadn't had time to move away.

Li Chen's heart sank, and he prepared to help. After all, they were all from the same village, and even if they weren't relatives, they were still somewhat related.

In particular, his parents died early, and many people took pity on him and gave him food when he was a child. He was raised on the charity of many families.

"Thump—"

But just then, a bell suddenly rang out from the direction of the back mountain, and the terrifying bell waves were almost visible to the naked eye.

Under Li Chen's shocked gaze, wherever Zhong Bo passed, swarms of insects fell down in droves.

The insects appeared unharmed, but their spirits seemed to have been damaged, almost completely extinguished by the sound of a bell.

The insects, which had almost turned into dark clouds and covered the sky, were completely wiped out in a single ripple.

Is this someone's special ability, or some kind of treasure?

Li Chen was shaken and looked towards the back mountain: 'It seems the harvest from that wild world was far greater than I imagined.'

That makes sense. If what Hu Zhongming said is true, the people above started exploring the other world seven years ago, and their gains must have been substantial.

Suddenly, a group of soldiers rushed out from the direction of the back mountain, and someone shouted, "All militiamen, move out immediately and kill the ferocious bird! Do not fail!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the soldiers dispersed and rushed towards all the residents of Mango Village at top speed, prioritizing the protection of ordinary people.

During this process, they were also firing rapidly.

However, the power of firearms and bullets is limited. Even if they occasionally hit, those birds of prey will only lose some feathers at most, making it difficult to achieve an effective kill.

"Hey!"

Just then, another giant bird swooped down from Li Chen's side, about to dive.

However, when Li Chen glared at it, a terrifying aura emanated from him, which scared it away.

"call out--"

The ferocious bird was too fast. Li Chen picked up a stone, swung his arm in a wide arc, and threw it with all his might, but he still missed.

This made him frown slightly; his own strength was undoubtedly formidable.

With his immense strength, he could easily defeat even a swarm of ferocious birds.

Unfortunately, those ferocious birds can fly at incredible speeds, the most exaggerated of which can even approach the speed of sound, making it impossible to get close and fight them.

At this moment, five familiar figures appeared. They were the same five people who had been on patrol last night. One of them even drew his bow and shot down a ferocious bird that was as fast as lightning.

The other four also had bows and arrows, and some even had miniature crossbows strapped to their arms, making them fully armed.

They saw Li Chen, and they also saw the torn bird carcass in front of Li Chen's house.

However, they did not recognize Li Chen and did not know that the person who had been following them last night was Li Chen.

"Friends over there, come help!" one of them shouted, realizing that Li Chen was also quite strong.

Because those ferocious birds flying around in the sky are all incredibly powerful. Without immense strength, you can't kill them even if you get close.

Li Chen's heart stirred, and he set his sights on their pocket crossbows. So he didn't refuse and strode over: "Could I borrow a weapon? Or I can buy one from you."

Xiao Qingyi hesitated and said, "But we also need to use bows and arrows."

These militiamen were not authorized to carry firearms; their only weapon against the ferocious birds that flew high in the sky was the powerful bow and arrow.

"Just give me the miniature crossbow," Li Chen said, pointing to the small crossbow on her forearm.

"This is only for self-defense; it's not very powerful."

Xiao Qingyi took off her pocket crossbow and threw it to Li Chen: "If you can use it, it's yours. But this place is yours now. We need to go defend another place."

She also gave Li Chen the quiver hanging from her waist, which contained ten crossbow bolts.

She gave the items to Li Chen and then quickly left the area with her four teammates, as they were needed elsewhere.

"Thank you." After receiving the miniature crossbow made of alloy, Li Chen examined it carefully.

This miniature crossbow is only twenty centimeters long and about the thickness of a forearm, and can hold three bolts inside.

These crossbow bolts are no more than ten centimeters long and about the thickness of a chopstick.

Unlike normal crossbows, this pocket crossbow needs to be strapped to the forearm for use. It is not very powerful, and its only advantage is its concealment and surprise attack.

Li Chen tried aiming at the distance and fired a crossbow bolt.

"puff--"

The crossbow bolt flew out quickly, traveling more than forty meters in a straight line before finally falling in a parabolic arc more than one hundred and twenty meters away.

This is equivalent to an effective range of 40 meters and a maximum range of about 120 meters.

"The power isn't small, but it's only effective against ordinary people. Its rate of fire isn't even as fast as the flight speed of those ferocious birds in the sky."

However, I should have a way to increase the power of this pocket crossbow.

Li Chen picked up the quiver, took the crossbow bolts, and quickly turned to go home.

Back home, he found some very flexible steel, bent it with his hands to make it spring back, and tried to collect it with his left hand the moment it bounced back.

"I want flexibility, I want flexibility!" He tried to use his subjective will to interfere with the characteristics of his left hand.
