Chapter 040: Practical Anatomy of the Blue-Scaled Dog
All eyes were fixed on the corpse of the strange beast.
It was a strange beast resembling a wolfhound, over two meters long, and covered in dark blue scales.
Even in death, its crimson eyes remained wide open, its fangs bared, radiating a chillingly ferocious aura.
boom!
The man casually tossed the body onto the podium, making a dull thud.
He dusted off the blood from his hands, his gaze sweeping over the thirty students in the classroom, revealing a set of white teeth:
"Fu Zhen, a certified Beast Hunter, is your Beast Class teacher this semester."
The people in the audience looked at each other in bewilderment.
No one expected that their beast class teacher would be a beast hunter.
Beast hunters are among the most sought-after and dangerous professions in the world.
More than half of the world's top ten celebrities are monster hunters.
Meanwhile, the average mortality rate of beast hunters exceeds 30%, which is much higher than the mortality rate on the battlefield.
After the initial shock, everyone looked at Fu Zhen with deep respect.
Every Beast Hunter is a true warrior.
"My classes are different from other teachers' classes."
As Fu Zhen stood on the podium, his eyes, which held a hint of murderous intent, caused the students below to involuntarily sit up straight.
"I won't teach you any theoretical knowledge, I'll only teach you two things—how to kill the monsters, and how not to be killed by them."
He kicked the corpse of the strange beast at his feet. "Does anyone know what kind of beast this is?"
Swish!
Song Che and Meng Shuyu raised their hands almost simultaneously.
Fu Zhen's gaze fell on the two of them, and finally he pointed at Meng Shuyu, "You tell us."
Meng Shuyu stood up and said quickly:
"This is a bronze-level fourth-tier exotic beast, scientifically known as the Azure-Scaled Dog."
According to the classification of exotic mammals, it belongs to the life system—animal kingdom—caniform family—amphibious species.
They are a social, amphibious beast that is adept at ambushes and has a bite force exceeding five tons. Their weaknesses are twofold: their eyes and the seam between their jaw and neck.
The Blue-Scaled Dogs originated from Planet E09, one of the first large-scale invasions of Earth three hundred years ago. Their numbers once reached hundreds of millions, but they are now rarely seen on Earth, existing only in remote, untouched waters.
"Not bad, your theoretical knowledge is very solid."
Fu Zhen nodded slightly, gesturing for Meng Shuyu to sit down, then pointed to the beast's corpse on the ground and said:
"The Blue-scaled Dog is fast and has explosive power."
However, its endurance is poor; once it can last for three minutes, its speed and strength will noticeably decrease...
Therefore, the way to deal with it is simple: wear it down.
This is for lone Bluescale Dogs.
If you encounter a pack of blue-scaled hounds... one word: run.
Fu Zhen's tone turned sharp, "Although the Azure Scale Hounds are only at the fourth level of Bronze and not a great threat, a group of Azure Scale Hounds hunting together is enough to kill a martial artist at the seventh level of Qi and Blood instantly..."
"Finally, the Bluescale Dog is an amphibious species, so don't be foolish enough to go into the water and fight it."
The classroom was quiet.
Everyone was listening attentively, and many were even taking notes.
Fu Zhen's lectures were all practical and useful, based on real-world experience and knowledge.
"I just hunted down this blue-scaled hound this morning. From now on, I will bring a beast carcass over every Wednesday night."
He drew a gleaming dagger from his waist. "In the first lesson, I'll teach you how to dispose of a monster's corpse."
"The valuable parts of the Blue-Scaled Dog are its meat and scales."
"Its flesh contains a small amount of toxins, but after processing it can be eaten and can provide martial artists with a lot of nutritional energy."
"The scales on its body are only 3.5 millimeters thick, but their defensive power is stronger than ten bulletproof vests combined, making them a rather good defensive material for alien beasts."
As Fu Zhen spoke, he precisely stabbed the dagger into a barely noticeable slit in the jaw of the Green-Scaled Dog.
"This is the Bluescale Hound's fatal weakness."
He applied a little force.
With a hiss, the dagger sliced open the Bluescale Dog's abdomen as easily as a hot knife through butter, revealing its greenish-blue internal organs.
An indescribable, pungent, fishy smell instantly filled the entire classroom.
Even if everyone held their breath, they couldn't resist the hellish smell. They were all restless and looked uncomfortable.
Fu Zhen remained unfazed. "I need two helpers. Anyone interested?"
"Teacher, I...I..."
Everyone eagerly raised their hands.
Lin Bei glanced around and realized that he was the only one who hadn't lifted his penis yet.
So he raised his hand too.
"You alone."
Fu Zhen first called out Song Che's name.
His gaze swept around the classroom, then he looked at the last row and pointed.
"How could it be him?"
Everyone turned around and saw that the person the teacher pointed to was Lin Bei, who had just joined Class One.
Amidst envious glances.
Lin Bei got up and walked towards the podium. As he passed Zhao Baiyan's seat, he heard a cold snort filled with resentment.
He ignored him, strode up to the podium, and stood next to Song Che.
Song Che kept his eyes straight ahead, his expression indifferent.
"You're in charge of dealing with the scales."
Fu Zhen handed the dagger in his hand to Song Che.
He then drew another dagger from his waist and handed it to Lin Bei, saying, "You're in charge of processing the meat. Be careful to remove the tendons and blood vessels, as these are where toxins accumulate."
"Yes."
The two responded.
Fu Zhen then explained some methods and techniques for handling the situation.
Song Che made the first move.
scoff!
The dagger cut and moved along the tiny gaps between the scales, peeling off each piece of scale attached to the body's surface completely.
"good."
Fu Zhen nodded, a hint of approval in his eyes.
Although his technique was still a bit raw, the fact that he could be so decisive in handling the corpse of a strange beast on his first attempt was far better than what he had done back then.
the other side.
Lin Bei did not rush to take action, but instead observed the situation while planning the most efficient solution in his mind.
"Can't bring yourself to do it?"
Seeing that he hadn't made a move yet, Fu Zhen casually asked a question.
"Teacher, please give me a little more time."
Upon hearing Lin Bei's answer, Fu Zhen nodded without saying anything more.
offstage.
The crowd began to whisper among themselves.
Zhao Baiyan wore a gloating expression. "See? This is what you call someone whose virtue doesn't match their position..."
"Quiet."
Fu Zhen gave a cold shout.
The classroom immediately fell silent, with only the sound of Song Che rapidly cutting away.
Two more minutes passed.
"Teacher, I'm ready."
After saying something softly, Lin Bei plunged the dagger in his hand into the opened abdominal cavity of the Green Scale Dog at a forty-five-degree angle.
With a gentle flick of the wrist.
The blade swiftly glided along the natural boundary between the fascia and muscle... the cut surface was smooth and flat, without lifting a single strand of excess fascia.
"what?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Fu Zhen's eyes.
Is this kid really handling exotic beast meat for the first time?
Such skillful technique!
Song Che stopped what he was doing, looked up, and took a serious look at Lin Bei.
Lin Bei did not stop for a moment.
With each cut, a piece of the beast's flesh was severed.
Moreover, the dagger in his hand seemed to have eyes, each cut precisely avoiding bones, blood vessels, and fascia, ensuring that the cuts of the beast meat were clean and safe.
"This kid..."
Fu Zhen's gaze toward Lin Bei grew increasingly strange. "He's practically a born beast butcher."
