Chapter 24: Special Circumstances

Chapter 24: Special Circumstances

Upon hearing this, Qin Ge raised his head and looked at the person in front of him. His eyebrows raised slightly, and a playful look appeared in his eyes as he said, "Captain Saito mentioned normal circumstances earlier, so there must be special circumstances, right?"

Saito was truly amazed by the young man's performance, and his thoughts became even more fervent.

"There are indeed special circumstances. For example, you, Allen, since you can participate in the military academy selection, you can be considered a promising talent for our navy. Even though we are only in the logistics department, we are willing to assist exceptional talents. If you want to go through special circumstances, then it's best to demonstrate your excellence!" Saito said, testing the waters.

Qin Ge looked at the other person with interest and could somewhat discern his intentions. He nodded knowingly and said, "That's not a problem. I just don't know how Captain Saito judges excellence."

"It's simple. We have a hunting team that captures and transports powerful beasts. Use your combat skills to prove your excellence!" Saito blurted out.

While excellence is not solely determined by strength, there's no doubt that strength is the most convincing proof of excellence, especially in this world where the strong are revered.

Qin Ge readily accepted Saito's proposed method. He didn't want to waste too much time and wanted to resolve matters as quickly as possible.

The reason he took on the role of a butcher here was to obtain soul energy by killing the captured beasts.

Although the amount of soul energy obtained from beasts or sea creatures is not directly proportional to their strength, it is undoubtedly the safest and best method for Qin Ge at the moment.

Under Saito's guidance, Qin Ge quickly entered the interior and arrived at a slaughterhouse-like facility where various fierce beasts were imprisoned. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Roar!

Angry and ferocious roars continuously echoed from the thick cages, housing everything from lions and tigers to dinosaurs. There was even a designated area for the captivity of giant sea creatures.

Although these beasts and sea creatures were considered monsters to ordinary people, within the food transport department, they were nothing more than ingredients waiting to be slaughtered. The building resembled a slaughterhouse, with many workers busy moving the imprisoned beasts and leaving the actual killing to the specialized butchers.

"Alright, this place will do. This cage is specifically used to house large beasts. The material of the entire prison is extremely sturdy; even dinosaurs cannot damage it. You can freely choose any beast as your opponent. As long as you can defeat it or prove your excellence, you can stay here!" Upon arriving at a massive cage that stood at least ten meters tall, Saito turned around and looked at Qin Ge, who was following behind him.

Qin Ge surveyed the cage in front of him. After hearing Saito's words, he did not hesitate and immediately selected a fierce beast from among the many cages.

It was an extraordinary saber-toothed tiger, with a body length of five to six meters and a height of about three meters. Its agile and sleek body was filled with strong muscles. The most prominent feature was, of course, the sharp fangs protruding from its mouth, like two curved blades measuring over one meter in length.

Seeing Qin Ge's choice of beast, Saito's eyes gleamed. He originally thought Qin Ge would choose the usual tigers or lions, but he didn't expect him to choose an extraordinary saber-toothed tiger with an unusual size.

Although this saber-toothed tiger was not the strongest among the beasts in the slaughterhouse, it still ranked in the middle. Even a well-trained

An elite soldier from their headquarters, with full equipment, would need at least a ten-person squad to capture it.

But since Qin Ge made his choice, Saito naturally wouldn't say anything. He wanted to test Qin Ge's strength, and the stronger the beast, the better. Moreover, even if something went wrong, they had taken precautions and would immediately send someone into the cage for rescue.

Following Saito's arrangement, the enormous saber-toothed tiger was bound by heavy chains while roaring furiously. Several strong navy personnel then transferred it to the large cage.

Once the chains on the massive saber-toothed tiger were removed, it began patrolling the new cage with a fierce and restless low growl, its mouth filled with sharp fangs, emanating a highly aggressive aura.

The gaps between the iron columns in the large cage were large enough to prevent the imprisoned beasts from escaping but also allowed a person of normal build to freely enter and exit.

With the beast in place, Qin Ge decisively walked into the cage, calmly staring at the enormous saber-toothed tiger inside.

"Roar!"

Without a doubt, the already ferocious saber-toothed tiger showcased its vicious nature upon entering the cage with Qin Ge. It opened its large mouth and let out an ear-shattering roar, then pounced fiercely as if a tiger was pouncing on its prey.

Swish!

Under Saito's expectant gaze outside the cage, Qin Ge faced the oncoming attack from the massive saber-toothed tiger. Not only did he remain composed, but he also instantly reacted, tapping his toes and evading to the side.

With a mere difference of a hair's breadth, Qin Ge and the massive saber-toothed tiger passed each other. Almost simultaneously, Qin Ge abruptly halted his movements, twisted his body, and, accompanied by a low shout, unleashed a powerful punch that struck the tiger's neck.

Bang!

On the outside of the cage, Saito watched as the chains that bound the saber-toothed tiger were removed. He naturally had high hopes for Qin Ge's strength. The stronger the beast, the better. Even if there were any problems, they had taken precautions and were ready to send people into the cage for rescue.

Following Saito's instructions, the enormous saber-toothed tiger was bound by heavy chains while roaring furiously. Several strong navy personnel then transferred it to the large cage.

Bang!

The dull sound reverberated inside the prison cell, carrying the terrifying power of Qin Ge's punch. Even the gigantic saber-toothed tiger, feeling as if struck heavily, tilted its head and staggered in pain, retreating to the side.

Seeing this scene, Saito outside the cage also brightened up. Just from this single attack by Qin Ge, he could naturally see that Qin Ge's strength was definitely beyond that of an ordinary person.

"Indeed, he is worthy of being a candidate for the military academy selection. His strength alone is already extraordinary!" Saito thought to himself.

Although Qin Ge's punch forced the huge saber-toothed tiger to retreat, wild beasts naturally had thick hides and strong bodies, so they wouldn't be easily defeated. On the contrary, although the massive saber-toothed tiger felt pain, it recovered quickly and was aroused with even more ferocity. It lifted its claw and fiercely swiped toward Qin Ge.

Sharp bone spikes emitted a terrifying edge, and one could imagine that being hit by them would surely result in being torn apart. Moreover, the enormous saber-toothed tiger possessed astonishing strength. Even rocks could be easily crushed by it.

Although Qin Ge practiced the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill, he didn't dare to directly confront the huge saber-toothed tiger. With a tap of his foot, he agilely flipped and dodged the opponent's claws in mid-air.
