Chapter 118 I Am the Most Beautiful Kid in Our Village
"What about me? I chose Iron Fist Ruby, so did I also become Iron Fist Ruby?"
Mikayla quickly checked her own condition.
Sure enough, her clothes and everything had changed, and her skin, which was wheat-colored, had now become as fair as snow.
Moreover, she could feel that her body's flexibility and agility had greatly improved.
"Thump!!"
"Thump!!"
Two more people fell from the sky, and now everyone was accounted for.
"Dr. Smolder Yongshi: Replaced by Spencer, an all-around hero with no weaknesses. Skills: Fearless, Climbing, Superspeed, Boomerang, Deep Stare Kill."
"Iron Fist Ruby: Replaced by Mikayla. Skills: Karate, Tai Chi, Aikido, Dancing. Weakness: Venom."
"Mousson Finbar: Replaced by Dave, an animal expert and weapon handler. However, strength, speed, and cake are his fatal flaws."
"Professor Shelly Oberon: Replaced by Bethany, an expert in cartography, archaeology, and paleontology with not much stamina."
Upon interacting, everyone almost understood their respective situations. It wasn't as if they had never played online games. Although they had never encountered this particular situation, they generally understood what was happening.
"So we're trapped in a game?" Dave, who had turned into a short, poor, and ugly black man, felt terrible. Although he was short before, he wasn't this short!
"Oh my god!! I've become a fat, ugly, and round person!!" Bethany touched her big belly, feeling like she was going crazy. She was the most beautiful flower in the City Academy of Sciences, but now she had become a scruffy, greasy middle-aged man weighing over 200 pounds!
"Uncle, you just told me that as long as we clear the game, we can get out, and we still have three lives. Uncle, do you know something?" Mikayla leaned closer to Mo Fei and asked in a low voice.
"I know a little bit. I heard a friend talk about this kind of strange game..." Mo Fei said vaguely, his mind spinning wildly, trying to figure out how to make up a story.
"No!!!"
Bethany let out a shriek. She was standing by the stream, using the water to reflect her appearance. When she saw how ugly she was now... Mo Fei and the other three looked at Bethany, startled to see a giant Beast that had been lurking in the river slowly surfacing.
Bethany, who was clutching her face and shrieking, suddenly felt something was wrong. The surroundings suddenly became quiet, eerily so, and a huge Shadow gradually enveloped her.
Under this Shadow, her large, fat, and round figure seemed insignificant; her entire being was overshadowed.
"So ugly!" Bethany looked up and saw the ferocious giant Beast whose mouth was even bigger than her belly, with saliva dripping from it, and she said blankly.
The hippopotamus was enraged. "Motherf***er, what kind of eyesight do you have? I am the most beautiful kid in our village, and you dare to call me ugly?"
"No one has ever dared to call me ugly. You're the first!"
So the hippopotamus opened its gaping maw and lunged towards Bethany, trying to swallow her.
In just an instant, a golden gun appeared in Mo Fei's hand. It was modified, so he didn't even need to aim; he just pulled the trigger.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two bullets shot straight out, hitting both of the hippopotamus's eyes. The shattered eyeballs exploded, and the immense force caused the hippopotamus's head to snap back, falling into the stream.
The Desert Eagle, released by MRI Company, had its prototype completed in 1981, with the final design finalized by Israel Military Industries (IMI).
After thousands of firing tests, the first fully functional .357 caliber Desert Eagle finally emerged.
It was a gun nearly 26 centimeters long, weighing approximately 2000 grams, and could fire 7 rounds per load.
The initial velocity of these bullets could reach 402 meters per second, and the effective range of this gun also reached 100 meters.
To ensure a one-shot kill against large Beasts, the Desert Eagle uses .50 Magnum high-power pistol ammunition, which is a hunting pistol round with a bullet caliber of 12.7 millimeters. Therefore, the Desert Eagle had to use the multi-lug locking lugs found on rifles to ensure the chamber was sealed at the moment of firing.
"What are you still standing there for? Run over here!" Mo Fei shouted at Bethany.
"Oh, oh!" Bethany, who had just come to her senses, quickly ran towards Mo Fei and the others.
The hippopotamus lying in the stream must have been shot in the brain. It struggled a few times in the stream but couldn't get up, just lying there twitching.
"The primeval jungle is full of dangers. Stay close to me, otherwise, if anything happens, I won't be able to save you," Mo Fei said lightly, holding the Desert Eagle and blowing at the wisps of smoke coming from the muzzle.
"My goodness, what kind of Beast is that? It's so ugly!" Bethany was still shaken.
"That's a hippopotamus, an omnivore. It can run faster than a horse over short distances, and its bite force can reach 8100 Newtons," Dave interjected unconsciously.
"How do you know that?" Spencer's gaze towards Dave changed.
They were both underachievers at school, and America always advocated for quality education, so they lacked a lot of common sense. How could Dave know such obscure knowledge?
We agreed to be underachievers together until old age, but you secretly attended tutoring classes?
This brotherhood is over!
"Because his game character chose Mousson Finbar, who is a zoologist, he can know all the animal species and habits in this World." Mo Fei casually twirled the Desert Eagle in his hand, looking around to observe the surroundings.
"Uncle!" Mikayla saw movement in the bushes behind Mo Fei and quickly pointed behind him: "You have..."
"A hippopotamus, right!" Mo Fei slowly turned around.
"Bang! Bang!"
Almost the instant the hippopotamus surfaced, two .50 Magnum high-power pistol rounds were already in front of its eyes.
With Mo Fei's current perception ability, trying to ambush him was not an easy task.
Another hippopotamus had its eyes blown out by Mo Fei, falling to the ground, barely breathing.
"How lonely, how lonely is invincibility; how empty, how empty is invincibility..." Mo Fei blew on the muzzle, his face utterly calm.
"Uncle..."
After that hippopotamus fell, pairs of blood-red eyes slowly lit up in the dark, damp jungle, coming from far and near. There were at least twenty hippopotamuses.
Their undisguised hostile gazes were all fixed on Mo Fei, the human who had killed their kind.
Snorting heavily, with saliva dripping from their mouths, their pillar-like hooves pawed the ground twice, and with a roar, they charged towards Mo Fei and his companions.
"Holy crap!" Mo Fei was shocked. Even with his Desert Eagle, he couldn't deal with over twenty thick-skinned, huge hippopotamuses at the same time: "Friends, run!"
