Cursed Immortality

Over ten miles away from the hideout,

Jacob and Pig Head were hiding behind the shade of a large tree, and Jacob was peering from the side with his cold eyes without making any extensive movement.

Fifty meters from the enormous tree, a 2.2-meter animal was resting under it without fear of anything attacking it.

Its color was a tan with an orange hue, and its underbelly was white. There were dark spots consisting of solid black markings on its undersides and hollow black circles on its back. It has large teeth, large eyes, four muscular legs, and a long unusual arrow-shaped tail.

Jacob's eyes shimmered with astonishment, 'That's an Arrow Tail Jaguar! One of the strongest uncommon species. But its strength is virtually closer to a rare species, and it can fight toe to toe with those rare animals known as beasts! I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky to encounter such a vicious animal. Even in my old world, Jaguars were one of the strongest apex predators.'

Jacob naturally got all this information about Arrow Tail Jaguar from the Rare and Rarer Beast Encyclopedia.

Although this wasn't a beast, it wasn't far off.

In the Rare and Rarer Beast Encyclopedia, any animal that fell in the category of a rare species was known as a beast, and these beasts were as strong as any rare species.

'Although it's only an uncommon species, as long as it fell under the tier classification of Immortika, it's useful to me. Since that 'cat' didn't bother to hide its presence, that means there aren't any other animals stronger than it in this vicinity, or it could be just that it's dumb! If I just had a rifle, that cat would be regretting in the afterlife right now!' Jacob bitterly lamented.

Even if he had superhuman strength, he still thought weapons that could shoot projectiles were far more effective in this situation.

Nevertheless, since he had already spotted the prey, he won't let it get away, and the sky was already getting darker with dark clouds. It won't be long before the rain starts, and Jacob wants to go back before the rain.

"Pig Head, go and kill that cat for me." Jacob gave a simple command to listless Pig Head, standing like a log beside him.

Pig Head instantly sprang into action after receiving Jacob's command, and without caring about the commotion, he directly launched toward the Arrow Tail Jaguar.

'Fuck, this guy is too simple-minded. What if that cat runs away after seeing your ferocious appearance?!' Jacob was flabbergasted and cussed.

However, nothing like this happened. On the contrary, when the Arrow Tail Jaguar sensed the eruption, it was startled for a moment before its beastly eyes locked on the incoming Pig Head.

It viciously growled in Pig Head's direction, showing its big, sharp teeth. It was taking Pig Head as an intruder and prey.

Thereupon, the Arrow Tail Jaguar pranced toward Pig Head head-on and leaped at him with two sharp claws in its front.

Pig Head expressionlessly threw a punch toward Arrow Tail Jaguar's head. However, at this moment, the arrow tail suddenly moved, and the Arrow Tail Jaguar maneuvered in the air, completely dodging Pig Head's massive punch and clawing at his chest!

Jacob's eyes contracted to see this unnatural movement from the Arrow Tail Jaguar. However, he had information about these uncommon animals. But the book didn't describe uncommon animals much, like how they hunt or what kind of special trails they have.

Just like how this Arrow Tail Jaguar's arrow tail can help it maneuver in the air, this insignificant detail can be extremely deadly for someone who didn't know about it beforehand.

'I should've known better. How could an uncommon species be so easy to deal with? I have been blinded by victory over that brown bastard, and he was just wise, not powerful, while this Arrow Tail Jaguar is powerful. It can kill ten Deckers easily.'

Jacob had an ugly expression on his face as he looked at the claw mark on Pig Head's chest, and blood was gushing out nonstop. Although the wounds weren't too deep, it was still deadly if he lost too much blood.

He can't afford to lose Pig Head right now, not until he exited the forest or if it was absolutely necessary, and definitely not to this uncommon cat!

On the other hand, Pig Head didn't even notice the claw wound on his chest and again sprang into action.

The Arrow Tail Jaguar coldly roared and again launched another claw attack, and this time it also wanted to take a bit on Pig Head's hairy neck!

However, at this moment, before Arrow Tail Jaguar could dodge Pig Head's punch, its hair stood from its back as if it had sensed something deadly from the side.

Now it had to either dodge Pig Head's massive punch or the danger for the side since it can't dodge both.

However, just this momentary indecision was enough to spell its doom!

Pig Head's punch connected with its left side jaw, and another punch landed on its right ribs!

The Arrow Tail Jaguar was sent flying by these two-sided attacks.

The second attack was naturally Jacob, who had used his speed and perception to sneak attack the Arrow Tail Jaguar just in the nick of time.

"Kill it!" Jacob coldly uttered, without giving the Arrow Tail Jaguar any chance of running or recovering from the aftershock.

Pig Head obliged without expression as it raised its foot and viciously stomped on Arrow Tail Jaguar's head, which was still in a daze because of the previous attack…

'Crack…'

The crushing sound of someone's skull being crushed rang in the silent vicinity.

Jacob coldly looked at the mingle head of the vicious animal, and he said before Pig Head could stomp on it again, "Enough, it is already dead. I don't want you to trample on my specimen."

Pig Head instantly stopped and returned to his listless self!
