The first time taking on such an exploration task, it was discovered that seemingly trivial tasks actually have very high demands, in terms of strength, adaptability, response, disguise, and so on.
Itâs really not suitable for newcomers.
âItâs not something you can complete with just a hot-blooded approachâ¦â
Shi Wen sighed. The Development Zone has hit somewhat of a bottleneck now, and in another direction, there seems to be an encounter with the green-skinned Goblins from White Star City in Baixing State.
Because even a force like White Star City couldnât resolve it, the exploration in that direction has been halted, and now they can only seek other directions.
âCurrently, it seems like thereâs nothing good here, just an ordinary Technology World, which could be used as a resource zone and transit rest area. Itâd be best to take down a Demon and see what it dropsâ¦â
However, just as Shi Wen opened the door and entered the staircase.
Splatter~
A sound came from behind, causing him to frown, and he quickly turned back.
When he opened the rooftop iron door again, he saw the two soldiers he had previously knocked unconscious, already lying in a pool of bloodâ¦
ââ
In front of the two corpses, there was a demon with a ferocious face, humanoid shape, exposed blood vessels, golden pupils, and a mouth full of sharp teeth, chewing away continuously.
The sharp claws in its hands had already gutted the two soldiers, now stuffing their slick entrails into its mouth.
Upon noticing Shi Wen, its eyes glanced sideways, appearing to see his arrival.
After slurping down what was in its mouth, it let out a hoarse voice.
âQuite fortunate, didnât expect a third to show up.â
Shi Wen looked at the two people he had pressure-pointed to sleep, anger appearing on his face because of their tragic death due to his actions.
âI didnât even kill them! You deserve to die!â
As he finished speaking, he exploded forward, covering several meters in a single step.
Within two or three steps, he arrived rapidly by the demonâs side.
This left the demon, which was still wearing a grin, with a look of astonishment.
âSo fast?â
Before it could react, seeing the opponentâs palm force coming through the air, a sound similar to a Dragonâs Chant seemed to reach its ears.
Roar~
A wave of air pressure came through the air, followed by the second palm, the third palm, layering over one another, finally focusing on the demonâs blocking arm.
Without relying on any weapon, he already broke the demonâs arm, pressing it heavily against its chest.
Splat~
Disgusting blood sprayed from the demonâs mouth, as if its insides had been shattered.
Yet, even with such an injury, its unaffected other hand reached for Shi Wen without the slightest decrease in speed.
The sharp claws left a few bleeding trails on the caught-off-guard Shi Wen, making him quickly distance himself.
âSuch strong Life Energy?â
Shi Wen was somewhat bewildered, then drew two large-caliber custom pistols from his waist.
In the demonâs somewhat dumbfounded expression, he pulled the trigger, splat~
The head burst open like a watermelon.
Seeing the body fall and Yuan Force beginning to gather at the opponentâs claws, Shi Wen finally breathed a small sigh of relief.
Looking at his own wounds, he began taking out Broad-spectrum Antitoxin Potion from his backpack, applying it to the wound.
If itâs poisoned, that would be troublesomeâ¦
âHey, Little Ghost did well.â
A slightly arrogant, hoarse voice sounded.
Countless bats gathered into view, finally forming the silhouette of a man in a tailcoat, with red eyes.
Just by standing here quietly, he instilled endless fear in Shi Wen.
What is this?
Demon?
Another one?!
The gunfire here seemed to have attracted the attention of the nearest adjacent post, with bright searchlights already sweeping over.
This seemed to be noticed, as Makabala casually raised a hand and grabbed Shi Wen, wrapping in Shadow, then ghost-like, pressed against the wall of the skyscraper, surged towards the bustling district below.
The Nasalik Tomb was so massive that even with an abundant supply of fel energy as a power source, starting, moving, and stopping reactions were relatively slow.
The vanguard teams in front were still primarily based on Space Airships.
Relying on âflexibilityâ to scout ahead.
And here, was Makabalaâs area of responsibility.
Soon, Makabala brought the person to an apartment.
âMr. Makabala is back, huh? Did you gain something?â
Kirito, seeing the Dreadlord carrying someone in like a bat from the window, greeted him.
Their group consisted of four people.
Makabala, Kirito, Asuna, and CC.
Kirito and Asuna mainly discovered a country similar to Neon and wanted to come and check it out.
Although it turned out not to be their hometown, their familiarity with Neon made it relatively easy to integrate.
Currently, Kirito and Makabala shared a room, with Asuna and CC in the adjacent room.
âYes, thereâs some gain.â
Makabala, transformed into a human form, appeared courteous, just like a gentleman.
And as he looked at Kirito, a playful and interested expression appeared in his crimson eyes.
The Dreadlord enjoyed manipulating others like puppets and felt that this guy named Kirito could stir up something interesting hereâ¦
It seemed that the commotion was heard, as CC and Asuna from next door also came over to knock on the door.
When Kirito opened the door, CC, biting into a pizza, curiously peeked at Shi Wen.
âWhat did you catch?â
Although Makabala was the strongest in terms of power, the command of this team was in the hands of CC, who possessed the Holy Intent Scroll.
