Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating

Chapter 27: The Terrifying A-class Fearsome Beast, Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at the nicely roasted elite Crimson Haired Warthogs, Lu Yu was absolutely delighted.

This time, Lu Yu withdrew his Red Lotus True Fire in time, then extinguished the fiery flames on the body of the elite Crimson Haired Warthog, so he managed to retain more edible meat.

Lu Yu hurried forward and simply tore out the meat with his bare hands. Then he began gobbling down the meat hungrily.

It didn’t take long for Lu Yu to finish the 20 over catties of elite Crimson Haired Warthog’s roasted meat.

When Lu Yu had just transmigrated here, he would feel full after consuming 7 or 8 catties of Barbaric Blood Ox meat.

However, now, including the food he had eaten before, he had eaten a total of 30 to 40 catties of elite Crimson Haired Warthog meat, but he still did not feel satiated.

It seemed that as his evolution level rose, Lu Yu’s appetite and digestive speed also increased.

[Ding! Detected that host has eaten B-class elite Crimson Haired Warthog meat. Received: Strength +324, Health Vitality +278, Agility +158, Crimson Haired Fiery Flame (B-class!)]

[Crimson Haired Fiery Flame (B-class) has automatically fused with Red Lotus Battle Energy (A-class), increasing its power by 10%!]

Lu Yu suddenly felt a warm current flow through his body, and found that his strength had increased by quite a bit.

The new fire-attribute skill had already fused with the Red Lotus Battle Energy, which confirmed Lu Yu’s earlier hunch. He suspected that eating these elite Crimson Haired Warthogs would increase the power of his fire-attribute skill, the Red Lotus Battle Energy!

As his health vitality surged, a ball of Red Lotus Battle Energy appeared in Lu Yu’s palm.

It had the same health vitality, but Lu Yu could feel that its power inside had greatly increased.

......

“Not bad! There should be more elite Crimson Haired Warthogs hanging around here. Forward!” Lu Yu’s eyes lit up with excitement.

Following that, Lu Yu picked up the Blood Emperor Battle Saber and continued to slaughter his way through the sea of Crimson Haired Warthogs.

When dealing with a single Crimson Haired Warthog, Lu Yu simply swung the Blood Emperor Battle Saber and killed it in one strike.

In the face of a large number of Crimson Haired Warthogs, Lu Yu switched to using his Red Lotus Battle Energy, deploying his Red Lotus True Fire to attack the whole horde.

Lu Yu also discovered that after obtaining the Red Lotus Battle Energy, his combat strength had risen to an alarming level. He had also gained the ability to launch group attacks, making it much more convenient.

After slaying most of the Crimson Haired Warthogs around the outer city wall, Lu Yu climbed to the top of the outer city wall.

On the top of the outer wall, there were still many Crimson Haired Warthogs.

With the launch of his Red Lotus True Fire, the group of Crimson Haired Warthogs were eliminated instantly.

Thus, on the top of the outer city wall, Lu Yu continued to slaughter until he had almost killed all of them when he spied another elite Crimson Haired Warthog.

After successfully killing it, Lu Yu stepped up once more, put down the Blood Emperor Battle Saber, and began wolfing down the roast meat.

As soon as he finished eating, warm currents flowed through his body, and his abilities were elevated once more.

A notification then popped up.

[Ding! Detected that host has eaten B-class elite Crimson Haired Warthog. Received: Strength +294, Health Vitality +238, Agility +128, Crimson Haired Fiery Flame (B-class!)]

[Crimson Haired Fiery Flame (B-class) has automatically fused with Red Lotus Battle Energy (A-class), increasing its power by 8%!]

Even though the rewards from this beast were not comparable to the last elite Crimson Haired Warthog, it had still given Lu Yu a significant boost.

And now, Lu Yu had already eaten the elite Crimson Haired Warthog 3 times, for a grand total of probably 50 catties of meat. It was an astounding amount.

However, Lu Yu only felt just barely full, and that if there were more, he should be able to continue eating a lot more.

At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly heard the sound of movement nearby.

Lu Yu thought it was an enemy and immediately turned around. Just as he was about to take up the Blood Emperor Battle Saber to fight, he discovered that it was a human.

A woman appeared before Lu Yu’s eyes. She wore body-fitting combat clothes and her voluptuous figure was clearly outlined.

However, she was in an extremely sorry state right now. Her body was covered in blood, indicating that she had just engaged in a bloody battle.

Upon seeing Lu Yu, the woman stepped forward and squatted down to try and help him up, thinking that he was injured.

In truth, when Lu Yu squatted down just now, it was simply to gobble down the elite Crimson Haired Warthog meat, that was all.

“Are you all right? Why didn’t you follow the other residents retreating? Are you lost? Seriously, how can they abandon an old man like you here? How dangerous!” the woman grumbled in annoyance.

When he heard her, Lu Yu immediately understood that this was a misunderstanding. She must have seen his white hair and assumed that he was an ordinary person.

However, after carefully thinking about it, Lu Yu also understood. If a normal martial arts practitioner was really powerful, he wouldn’t have white hair even if he was 90 years old. He would not age so easily.

Only those whose powers were weak or if they were ordinary people would they age as they grew older. Their hair would turn all white and their faces would be filled with wrinkles.

Lu Yu knew that he had been misunderstood, but he couldn’t be bothered to explain. So he simply shook his head and said, “I’m fine.”

The woman thought that Lu Yu didn’t want to be a burden to her, so she quickly said, “I am the deputy-captain of the 4th squadron, Song Yu. It is my responsibility to protect all you residents, so you don’t need to worry about being a burden to me. Wait a moment, I have something urgent to report first.”

Song Yu looked around in confusion. She remembered that this place was swarming with Crimson Haired Warthogs just now. She and her teammates had tried to break out of their siege together, but her teammates ended up suffering serious injuries.

Now, she was the only one left in the entire squadron.

When Song Yu heard some commotion earlier, she quickly rushed over. She thought that the warriors inside the city had come to pick them up.

However, when she arrived, she did not see a single Crimson Haired Warthog. She also did not see any warriors either. She only saw one old man who survived.

Song Yu didn’t understand how all the Crimson Haired Warthogs had disappeared. What she didn’t know was that most of the Crimson Haired Warthogs had already been burnt to ashes by Lu Yu’s Red Lotus True Fire.

Nonetheless, Song Yu did not dwell on this for long. She quickly took out her communicator and tried to contact the people inside the city.

However, after fiddling with it for some time, Song Yu fell into despair.

In the battle just now, all her communication devices were damaged.

“What should we do? The communicators are all broken. We can’t contact anyone in the city!” Song Yu muttered anxiously.

Her 4th squadron was the first to reach the battlefield, and also the first to come into contact with the horde of Crimson Haired Warthogs.

In the battle just now, Song Yu discovered that the information provided was wrong.

In the original report, this round of Fearsome Beasts attacking the city was mainly led by C-class Crimson Haired Warthogs. The strongest among them were the B-class elite Crimson Haired Warthogs.

However, after the real battle commenced, Song Yu realized that the hordes of C-class Crimson Haired Warthogs were only leading the charge upfront.

Behind the herds of Crimson Haired Warthogs was the truly powerful Fearsome Beast. It was actually the A-class Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth!

An A-class Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth was way too powerful. The city would need to mobilize a large number of experts to deal with it in order to have some chance of winning the battle.

However, now that the communicator was broken, Song Yu had no way of contacting the city to convey this latest information to them.

Right at this moment, continuous light trembling could be felt on the ground.

Lu Yu and Song Yu turned around. A massive Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth emerged before their startled eyes.

It was completely covered in red fur, and its body was incredibly big, easily reaching 4 to 5 meters in height.

Standing in front of it, Lu Yu and Song Yu appeared so tiny.

Song Yu was very frightened inwardly. With her strength, there was no way she could fight an A-class Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth.

However, steadfastly upholding the belief that soldiers had to protect the defenseless civilians, Song Yu still stood up with her saber and faced the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth head on, fully prepared to risk everything she had.
