His three life objectives were to “become a veteran Mutant Beast Hunter,” “complete his Second Enhancement of mutant blood potion,” and “hunt a high-risk mutant beast.” As long as he completed the last two, the first goal would naturally be resolved, saving him energy.
“This is pretty convenient.” Zhou Jing felt energized.
He couldn’t help but think of the times when he played games in the past. He always liked to take on a bunch of missions with overlapping requirements. That way, he could save time and energy and achieve twice the results with half the effort. While completing one mission, he could also fulfill the requirements of the other missions.
This time, the Astral Apostle’s [Life Objective] seemed to be in the same situation.
Now that the route was clear, Zhou Jing felt much more relaxed.
At this moment, Barong could not help but interrupt Weiss.
“It’s fine as long as you know what you’re doing. Even if your enhancement is low, it doesn’t relate to you not being able to kill stronger mutated beasts. We’re all hunters, so there’s no difference between us.”
“Yes, I know.” Zhou Jing came back to his senses and nodded.
He remembered that Barong had also killed medium-risk mutant beasts before.
This system did not have any official organization certification. Most of the time, it was just an honorary system and was respected by others. It was not like the main world where money was distributed according to the Supers’ Rankings.

Zhou Jing then asked in a curious tone.
“In that case, one can at most undergo four enhancements of the mutant blood?”
Weiss seemed to be quite excited as he explained, “That’s not the case. No one knows how many times the upper limit of enhancement is. It’s just that the more times the enhancement is done, the lower the success rate. After obtaining a certain level of strength, there’s no need to take the risk to accept a new round of enhancements. Instead, we should study how to use our current abilities to fight against the mutant beasts. This is the choice of most hunters.”
Zhou Jing nodded in understanding.
Hunters could accept dying in battle, but they could not accept a worthless death. The stronger a hunter was, the more thought they should put in to enhance themselves further.
Hearing this, the other hunters also started to casually discuss and sigh.
“Sigh, that’s why I don’t dare to undergo a Second Enhancement. Instead of taking this risk, I might as well practice more breathing techniques.”
“The two hunters I knew died from the Second Enhancement. It was much more dangerous than the First Enhancement, and their deaths were too tragic. I’m still a little afraid when I think about it.”
“Speaking of which, what’s the standard of the current Chief Hunter that had its title conferred by the empire? It seems to be at the Fifth Enhancement?”
Everyone discussed fervently.
Zhou Jing secretly noted it down and suddenly asked curiously, “What’s the maximum enhancement recorded in history?”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s expressions turned serious.
Weiss stopped grinning and took a deep breath. With undisguised reverence, he slowly spoke out.
“That was in the distant tribal era. At that time, a legendary hunter appeared. His name was Raven·Tarn, the strongest hunter that ever appeared in history. He was the hero of human history!”
“Historical records show that Raven·Tarn had undergone eight enhancements and hunted more than 2,000 mutant beasts in his life. He united the scattered tribes one by one and led them to live and reproduce in the dangerous verdant plains. He guarded them for decades, until the threat from the mutant beasts was greatly reduced… It was because of Raven·Tarn that humans managed to walk out of the long darkness and truly rose in this land. Out of the current tribes that established the Terra Empire, most of them have been protected by him!”
“The current ruler of the Terra Empire is a blood relative of the Tarn bloodline… and Raven·Tarn is their ancestor!”
Weiss’s tone was serious. The other hunters did not interrupt his story. The atmosphere was like someone going on a pilgrimage.
Clearly, hero Raven had an extremely high status in the hearts of the hunters.
Zhou Jing blinked.
He roughly understood how the Terra Empire, established by many tribal alliances, had convinced each other to choose a royal family that everyone recognized.
It was a competition between their ancestors!
As for whether this “hero” Raven had been beautified by the ruler, he did not know. He had his own reservations.
After all, he was not a true resident of the Mutant World, so he could not empathize with them immediately. However, he would not directly question or expose them.
He couldn’t even imagine his strength at eight blood enhancements.
“Eight blood enhancements… But how did he die?”
Zhou Jing continued to ask.
Hearing this, everyone sighed.
Weiss said regretfully, “Raven·Tarn challenged the Mutant Beast King and almost succeeded. Unfortunately, he still died in battle.”
“Mutant Beast King?”
This was the first time Zhou Jing had heard of this term. He turned to look at Barong. The latter had never mentioned it before.
Barong shook his head and spoke helplessly.
“I’ve told you before that those mutant beasts are divided into four danger levels. As for the Mutant Beast King, it is an even more dangerous monster. It belongs to the category of special existences that are not included in this evaluation because they are at the level of ‘impossible to hunt.’ No hunter can kill them.
“So far, we have only discovered three Mutant Beast Kings in our history. Fortunately, two of them did not threaten the survival of the tribe. The only one that threatened the humans was the one that Raven·Tarn had fought. Raven had used his life as the price to severely injure the beast before it retreated and allowed the tribes to escape a calamity of extinction.”
“And Raven·Tarn is also the only hunter in history who almost killed a Mutant Beast King.”
Hearing this explanation, Zhou Jing couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
What kind of monster can’t that can’t not even be defeated even by someone who had eight enhancements?
His three life objectives were to “become a veteran Mutant Beast Hunter,” “complete his Second Enhancement of mutant blood potion,” and “hunt a high-risk mutant beast.” As long as he completed the last two, the first goal would naturally be resolved, saving him energy.
