Defeating a Boar

Lukas decided to stay and fight the boar. His pride didn't allow him to turn around and run. Running away was fine, but would he forever stay the play thing of the system? The system clearly wouldn't stop giving such missions, ich he gave up now he might as well completely submit to the system.

At this point he already started seeing the system as a form of enemie. It's missions were ridiculous and the punishments were equally ridiculous. He had to het stronger and find a way to fight against the system. He didn't know why but he had a feeling that the more often he failed a mission the more it would benefit the system. Of course this was just a feeling, he didn't even know what the system really was.

He attacked the boar before it could react, he had the disadvantage in this fight so it was important to get the first hit. His fist striked the boars head and the boar growled in pain. He had used endless painful fists.

The boar was confused about the sudden pain and thought it was wounded. It went into rage and suddenly pierced with it's tusk into his stomach. The tusk penetrated deeply his stomach and barely received resistance.

It couldn't be helped lukas wasn't a body cultivator, without body cultivation his body was just a normal mortal body. It couldn't rival the strength of a beast, without appropriate methods he couldn't defend against the attack.

But he wasn't discouraged he already knew that he would get wounded in this fight. He used both his fingers to poke into the boars eyes, destroying the boars eyes were the only way for him to defeat it. He had no weapons and with his current methods it would take hours to kill that boar.

He was strong for someone at his layer, but his offensive move was meant to deal woth humans or in long drawn out fights. In a foght where he was already exhausted it would be his downfall to use this technique.

The boar cried in pain, it was blind and couldn't see anymore. But wounding it like this came at a price he has deeply wounded and one of his fingers broke. It broke when he poked the eye of the boar out. It couldn't be helped he didn't have enough fighting experience to use fighting techniques like this without mistakes.

But it had worked, he immediately jumped back to gain distance and used blood red flower armor to heal his wounds. It couldn't heal broken bones, but it could heal the wound in his stomach. It healed around half of the wound before he had lost all blood red flower petals. The wound was simply to deep the flower petal armor couldn't heal it completely.

Still earlier hes was at the brink of deaths door, and now his wound was healed enough to recover on it's own. And if he searched for flower petals again in the future he could use those to heal the wound faster. He was actually quite lucky to have prepared the blood red flower petal armor while he was traveling.

The boar was struggling and running madly around, it was totally confused by it's loss of vision. Lukas looked around and grabbed a big stone and carefully walked towards the boar. When he was near the boar he struck and hit the boars head with the stone. One strike after another hit the boars had like this. It tried to defend itself but without vision it's attacks were only mad strikes, lukas could avoid them.

Eventually the boar finally died, it collapsed and fell down. Lukas didn't hesitate long and used the stone to break the boar tusks. It was difficult the boar tusks were incredibly tough but eventually he succeeded in breaking one tusk.

He used this tusk to cut open the boar and prepare multiple portions fir the bext days. In this point he was actually lucky that it was a foundation realm beast. The higher the cultivation of the beast the slower did it rot.

This boar meat would still be safe to eat in 2 weeks. It didn't even need any special preparation to be eatable for that long just on it's own it would take 2 weeks before the meat would start to go bad. If this was a gold core beast it would even take months. And for soul core it would be over a year atleast to maybe even multiple years.

He immediately started eating, it was disgusting but he had no other choice. Beast meat was safe to consume raw, people just normally didn't do it. But he had no way to make fire, so his only choice was to eat the meat raw.

After that he rested, in other forests he would have to be scared of other beasts getting attracted by the smell of blood. But this forest was dominated by spiders, the only predators around would be in webs. If other predator beasts appeared here like wolfs the spiders would gang up on it.

Together with the fact that spider beasts never leave their webs he was relatively safe. But still he had to quickly find flowers soon to fully heal his wounds. Otherwise he might really die, being this wounded in a dangerous forest like this was almost a death sentence.

Lukas thought for a moment and checked the system interface and check if his mission updated.

„Kill 50 foundation rank beasts 1/50"

He smiled bitterly, he almost died and had barely achieved 2%.but what made him happy is that he received 1 point. It seemed like he could get points before finishing missions for achieving small achievements in a mission.

Still sadly 1 point wouldn't be able to change the situation. It even felt like the system was mocking him. It was like if someone was begging for money and you throw a cobblestone at him. It wouldn't help the begger at all, similar the 1 point wasn't very useful for lukas.
