GLOBAL KILLING: I COULD PLUNDER TALENT

by Kideo11

Five billion people in the world traveled to the killing world at the same time! There were tens of thousands of races and demons here! The law of existence was killing! Endless killing! How could humans find an opportunity to save the blue star in the killing world? Dick activated the talent plundering system! Congratulations on your gaining the level C talent, rage!

Chapter 1

"The earth is about to be destroyed!"

An ethereal voice spread throughout every corner of the world.

All humans couldn't help but look up at the sky when they heard this.

Then, the blue and white sky gradually dimmed, and the blood-red dyed the sky.

For a moment, the whole world was in chaos. What on earth happened?

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, the light of fire appeared in the sky.

As the firelight gradually enlarged, everyone saw clearly that it was a meteorite!

The whole world was in a panic.

"Boom!"

The meteorite fell to the ground and exploded.

Fortunately, the meteorite fell in the center of the sea.

The meteorite was powerful, but there were no casualties at present.

"Creatures on the earth have a chance to save themselves!"

At this time, the ethereal voice sounded again.

Now no one thought it was an auditory hallucination.

All humans pricked up their ears and carefully listened to this opportunity to save themselves.

"The killing world starts"

As soon as he finished speaking, the void exploded.

A huge space crack that covered the sky and sun appeared in front of everyone.

"In the killing world, demons are everywhere and tens of thousands of races are standing side by side. Only by killing can one obtain eternity!"

"All humans between 15 and 40 years old will be brought to the killing world. You will find the chance to save the earth in an endless crisis!"

"Set off"

In the bustling city of human beings, more than eighty percent of the people's bodies began to collapse.

In no time, those people turned into starlight and entered the space crack in the sky.

"Good luck!"

In a dark wooden house.

Roja looked around calmly.

It was so dark and terrible.

Roja had just come to this strange place from the earth.

At first, he was as panicked as the others, but after knowing that there was a chance to be saved, he quickly calmed down.

In a world full of demons and different races, panic would only make a person die faster.

All of a sudden, Roja's eyes were fixed on a projection screen.

On it, there were words that he could understand.

"Welcome to 1002548 Green-Hand Village."

Note: people from each country will be allocated to different green-hand villages.

Roja felt that his head was pricked by a needle.

After the stabbing pain, a lot of information related to the killing world appeared in his memory.

Grade division, material introduction, geographical introduction

After Roja digested the information, two options appeared on the projection screen:

Personal Information and Chatting Channel (1002548 Green-Hand Village)

Roja opened the personal information bar.

Name: Roja

Level: 0

Talent: none yet.

Skill: none yet.

Body value: Blood vitality 100, Energy 100, Strength 6, Defense 3, Agility 5.

Seeing the data plate, Roja couldn't help but think of the time when he played online games.

Is this... A real person online game?

Roja thought to himself and opened the chatting channel.

Many people's profile pictures were flashing. They were the real faces of each person, along with their names and ages.

At this moment, everyone was shocked by their own experience. At the same time, they were also worried about their family on the earth. Some people were looking forward to the next dangerous and exciting trip.

"I'm so scared to be alone in the little dark room!"

"I wonder how my aged parents are doing."

"Yes, I'm also worried. How can they live without me?"

"The world of killing! I'm looking forward to it!"

"If I find an opportunity to save the earth here, will I become a hero after I go back?"

Speaking of saving the earth, Roja actually didn't care about that.

He had no relatives or friends there, so he had nothing to worry about.

Compared to the earth, he preferred the laws of the killing world.

A difficult problem? Just kill!

Depressed? Kill someone to vent my anger!

Under the various legal restrictions of the earth, there was no place to experience such a thrilling feeling.

In the killing world, one could kill people at any time and anywhere without taking any responsibility.

However, the premise of all the happiness was that one's own combat effectiveness was strong.

Otherwise, one would be worried that he or she would become the prey or vent object of others.

"Announcement: ten minutes later, 1002548 Green-Hand Village will be open to the outside world."

Roja was stunned for a while and then chose to wait quietly.

Now that he knew nothing about the outside world, it was the best choice to let others explore the way.

As long as not everyone died together, someone would always bring a message back.

It was not until he got the outside information that Roja knew what he would face and how to deal with it.

When he looked at the chatting channel again, he found that everyone had changed the topic.

"I have actually awakened my talent!"

"I have also awakened!"

"What? Why didn't I?"

"Me neither!"

"I have awakened my level C talent!"

Some of them had awakened their talents.

Roja took a look at his message bar.

Talent: none yet

This made him frown.

Based on the information that suddenly entered his mind before, Roja had a conclusion.

Only those who had reached a certain level of physical strength would awaken their talents, and the level of their strength also determined the level of their awakened talents.

The talent was divided into nine levels including F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and S.

Roja's physical strength was so low that he hadn't even reached the threshold of awakening the lowest level of talent.

This made him, who had been looking forward to a wonderful "journey", become disappointed in an instant.

However, he quickly adjusted his state of mind.

He had one thing less than others. Only by being more careful could he survive in the killing world.

Suddenly, Roja heard a mechanical voice.

"Congratulations! You activated the divine-level plunder system!"

Roja was stunned by this sudden voice.

Then there was a flash of surprise on his face.

It was a system!

He had never expected that what was written in the novel would happen to him.

Roja asked with joy, "System, what's your function?"

"The divine-level plunder of system can plunder the talent of the dead, regardless of their level."

This... Didn't it just make up for the vacancy of his talent?

If a person with SSS level talent died, wouldn't it mean that he also had SSS level talent by plundering that person's talent?

This function was much more powerful than SSS!

Roja was more delighted.

"1002548 Green-Hand Village is open to the outside world!"

"Hint: every greenhand can have the most basic equipment."

The mysterious existence said again.

Then Roja saw a backpack section in his personal information bar.

Among them, there was a set of equipment: straw shoes (Agility+5), cloth clothes (Blood vitality +20), Dagger (Strength+10)

Roja put on the equipment calmly and waited in the darkness.

Waiting for others to explore the world.

Even if he had the system, he still had to be careful in the unknown world.

Moreover, the system could only plunder the talent of the dead. With his current ability, he was not confident in killing anyone alone.

Chapter 2

In the dark, Roja got information about the outside world through the chatting channel.

"Are the people in the village local to the killing world?"

"Outside the Green-Hand Village, there is a boundless forest."

"Oh my God! The monsters here are so strong, aren't they?"

"It took me a lot of effort to kill a magical beast."

"You are all right. I was almost killed."

"Guys, come here quickly. I met a tough magical beast, and several of our men have been seriously injured."

"We are coming! When one side is in trouble, the other sides will show their support!"

"We humans must unite together!"

"I'm here. Let's watch me kill them!"

Seeing this, Roja turned off the chatting channel.

After more than ten minutes, he finally took his first step in the world of killing.

The moment his feet fell on the ground, the darkness around him quickly receded like fog, and the countless buildings around him became virtual.

All the buildings were made of thatches. It seemed that the civilization here was still very backward, but Roja had no time to observe it. He rushed to the place where his compatriots were caught in trouble.

Soon, Roja came to a forest in dead silence.

There was no response. It seemed that the magical beast had been solved.

As Roja went deeper into the forest, he saw many claw marks, many trees that were broken from the waist, and more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. It could be seen how fierce the magical beast was.

Roja felt lucky that he had waited for a while, or he might become one of these corpses.

He came to the nearest corpse. This person was torn into halves by the magical beast, and his organs were scattered all over the ground.

It was the first time that Roja had seen such a bloody scene. He was more or less uncomfortable.

However, to make up for his vacancy, he endured the disgust and walked forward.

"System, plunder his talent."

Roja murmured in his heart, and then the voice of system came out in a second.

"Plundering"

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining level F talent: fire controlling!"

As soon as the voice of the system faded away, the talent column in Roja's personal information changed immediately.

After knowing how to use this talent, he closed his eyes and stretched out his right hand to mobilize his energy according to the feeling in his heart.

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, a fire appeared in Roja's palm.

As long as the energy in his body was enough, the fire could expand indefinitely.

Moreover, he could not only make a fire but also control the natural fire. The stronger the energy was, the wider the range of control would be.

"Not bad."

Roja said and walked to the next corpse.

"System, plunder!"

Roja had plundered a lot of talents this time. 𝘭𝘪𝑏𝑟ℯ𝒶𝑑.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Other people only had one talent, but he had too many that he didn't know how to use them.

However, the effects of many talents were not ideal. Most of them were level F and E, and some might not work in battles.

Roja looked at the last corpse with expectation.

The corpse didn't have a miserable look, whose two hands were removed.

Roja could even tell what the dead looked like when he was alive.

He must be a very strong man.

"System, plunder!"

"Plundering"

"Congratulations on you for obtaining level C talent: refinement!"

It could remove the impurities from all the materials.

Roja was a little surprised that he could plunder a level C talent.

However, the dead man was strong, and his level of strength should be very high. It was normal for him to have a level C talent.

Roja looked at the dead body on the ground with pity. If this person was not dead, he would make great achievements in the future.

Then, a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. Now, this person's talent belonged to him, and the achievements this man could achieve in the future would also be achieved by him.

"How should I test this talent?"

Roja thought to himself, "I should test what I just got."

Otherwise, he didn't even know what effect his own talent would have.

It could remove the impurities in all substances

After passing through the killing world, the only thing he had was that set of equipment.

"I wonder if my talent can be used on the set of equipment."

Roja took out the shoes, cloth clothes, and dagger from his backpack.

Then he used the refinement talent to deal with these three items.

As the shoes and other items flashed a light, their information immediately changed.

Refined shoes (Agility+10), Refined cloth clothes (Blood vitality +40), Refined Steel Dagger (Strength+20).

The quality of the three pieces doubled, which made Roja stunned.

No wonder it was a level C talent. It was really awesome!

Regardless of his talent, he was one step ahead of others in terms of equipment alone.

Moreover, as long as he had this talent, he would always take the lead in this step, and no one could surpass him!

With these refined pieces of equipment and many talents, he could at least defeat the magical beast of LV2.

Before the battle started, his combat effectiveness had improved significantly.

All in all, Roja had a good harvest this time.

It took him a long time to calm down.

After that, he fumbled for the body of the strong man.

Since the talent was plundered from the strong man, he should have also refined his own equipment.

Unfortunately, after searching for a while, Roja didn't find anything.

It seemed that the reinforcements had taken all the materials away.

Roja didn't return to Green-Hand Village after he got what he wanted. Instead, he opened the chatting channel.

After a period of time, he didn't know if the other humans had found new information.

"Damn it! Edward killed a wolf king of LV5!"

"I was just promoted LV2..."

"The gap is too big, isn't it?"

"Edward has awakened a level B talent!"

"I really regret that I didn't exercise hard before, but only awakened a level F talent."

"Ha-ha, when Edward killed the wolf king of LV5, I happened to be helping him. With that share of experience, I was promoted to LV3!"

"Damn it! I really envy you. When will Edward take me with him?"

"Does anyone want to team up to fight against the boss?"

Chapter 3

Roja got more information through the chatting channel.

In the killing world, a person's level represented his strength.

Of course, this did not represent a person's real combat effectiveness.

High-level talent could play an unexpected role in a battle, and it could even make people cross many levels to defeat their opponents.

And the easiest and direct way to raise the level was to kill the target and get the energy of the other party.

Roja hadn't participated in any battle so far, so his level was still 0.

However, he was not in a hurry. Edward, with level B talent, was only LV7.

He had more than a dozen talents. How could his upgrading be inferior to the others?

Even if the most powerful talent was only level C, there were still a lot of talents belonging to Roja.

Others only had one talent, but he had many. This was an edge!

After figuring out where his advantage lay and the rules of the killing world, Roja set out on his own and embarked on the endless hunting journey.

Before long, Roja was targeted by the magical beast.

The magical beast was the ruler of this forest. Naturally, they had already noticed the sudden appearance of so many humans.

They wanted to expel the intruders, but the humans had been in groups and they couldn't make the breakthrough.

Now that there was a human being left alone, there was no reason for the magical beast to let him go.

"Roar!"

A lion-like magical beast jumped out of the grass and roared at Roja.

"It's just in time!"

Roja smiled.

Then, he saw a projection.

It contained the basic information of the magical beast:

Abyss demon lion, LV3, blood vitality 300, energy 200, strength 40, defense 10, agility 25.

The introduction: a lion infected by the evil spirit, whose strong muscles are full of strength, and it has the talent of rage, which can easily tear its prey apart.

After reading the message, Roja was even happier. He didn't expect that magical beast also had talent.

However, the opponent's strength level made him more cautious.

Roja took out the steel dagger excitedly, and a cold light flashed from the blade, making the air freeze in an instant.

"Roar!"

The abyss demon lion roared and rushed to Roja.

Its sharp claws stretched out from its flesh and blood, like a deadly sickle.

Roja summoned the fire-controlling talent and attached the strength of the fire element to the steel dagger.

Then he rushed out like a hungry wolf.

"Zuh!"

The moment the two figures overlapped, a crisp sound of metal collision rang out, and sparks splashed in the void.

The strong strength of the abyss demon lion hit Roja hard and his body hit a big tree.

"Bang!"

The thick tree collapsed with a loud bang.

The abyss demon lion landed steadily on the ground.

However, there was a long bloodstain on the right side of his body.

The flat wound was cut by Roja's dagger, and there were traces of burning.

This kind of injury was far more painful than ordinary knife wounds.

The burning pain made the abyss demon lion let out a painful and angry roar after landing on the ground.

"Damn it! The strength of LV3 is so powerful!"

Roja stood up in a hurry and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

When he looked at his strength level, he found the blood vitality fell from 140 to 103 after being attacked by the abyss demon lion.

The 3-point defense talent was able to withstand a portion of the damage, but it could be ignored in front of the powerful combat effectiveness of the opponent.

Fortunately, the abyss demon lion underestimated its enemy at the beginning and didn't use the talent of rage directly. Otherwise, Roja would have lost his blood just now.

Roja, on the other hand, had a lot of talents, so he naturally wouldn't choose to fight the abyss demon lion head-on, whose strength level was much higher than his.

He had plundered a dozen talents before, and one of them was "making poison".

Because the talent level of poison making was not high, and there were no suitable herbs nearby, he only made some poison that could paralyze the nerves.

In addition to the energy of the fire element, there was also a large amount of his special poison attached to the stab he gave to the abyss demon lion just now.

Now, the strength of the abyss demon lion, which was eroded by the venom, was dropping sharply, and it would drop to 0 in less than a minute.

Although Roja didn't know what would happen if his strength was 0, it would definitely affect him.

What he needed to do now was to dodge the attack of the abyss demon lion and wait for half a minute to see what would happen.

If the declining strength of the abyss demon lion did not affect him, Roja could only take other measures.

As for the abyss demon lion, its intelligence was very low and it hadn't realized that it had been poisoned.

Its eyes turned red, and it pounced on its prey with anger.

Roja dodged quickly.

The agility of Roja was 10 points lower than that of the lion. Although Roja dodged the attack, his skin was still scratched by the sharp claws of the abyss demon lion.

His blood vitality dropped from 103 to 64.

As Roja dodged, he only suffered 1/3 of the harm of the attack.

But because the lion used the talent of rage, Roja still suffered a lot of damage.

"Hiss!"

Roja gasped.

What a great talent!

This made him more determined to plunder the talent of the abyss demon lion.

With such strong talent, he would definitely be invincible in the future!

Seeing that his attack missed, the abyss demon lion was ready to launch a third attack.

This time, it slowed down a little and was almost invisible.

Roja could see the physical data of the abyss demon lion.

His blood vitality was 284/300, his energy was 120/200, strength 38, defense 9, agility 23.

The strength level of the abyss demon lion had declined.

It seemed that it was caused by the exhaustion of its strength.

The poison began to erode its body.

This time, Roja still narrowly escaped.

However, the abyss demon lion didn't hurt him as he completely avoided the attack.

Then, the abyss demon lion tried again and again, but it always failed.

There were even several times when Roja had succeeded in counterattacking.

"Roar!"

The angry abyss demon lion let out a deafening roar.

Roja wiped the sweat on his forehead and looked at the abyss demon lion with interest.

After a while, the abyss demon lion's flexibility had obviously decreased a lot, and its strength level had also been greatly reduced.

Roja could easily dodge its attack and even change his blood without injury.

The abyss demon lion finally realized that there was something wrong with its body.

It was estimated that it would not be a match for this prey if it was a little later.

The lion changed its mind and wanted to run away. When its body returned to normal, he must teach this human a lesson.

Seeing this, Roja immediately came forward to attack with the dagger. He had worked so hard for so long, but how could he let the abyss demon lion run away?

The movements of the abyss demon lion were slow, and three or four wounds were left on its body by Roja.

It was so angry that he wanted to fight back, but its attack after muscle paralysis was so weak.

In the end, it became extremely difficult for the abyss demon lion to walk.

Roja cut him to death.

The moment he killed the abyss demon lion, a stream of energy flew out of its flesh and blood and entered Rojas body.

Roja only felt warm in his body, and the tiredness after a long time of exercise was quickly fading away.

At the same time, he also felt that his muscles were expanding and his strength was growing.

In the profile bar, LV0 became LV1 (40/100) in the blink of an eye!

After killing the enemy, he would obtain 1/10 of his strength, and the rest would return to the world of killing. 𝓵𝒊𝒃𝙧𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝓬𝙤𝙢

But even if there was only fifty percent of strength, sharing the strength of an LV3 magical beast still made Roja upgrade directly.

After upgrading, Roja's physical strength level doubled.

Blood vitality 200 (160+40), energy 120, strength 35 (15+20), defense 10, agility 20 (10+10).

It didn't take long for Roja to recover, and he became even more vigorous than his peak state.

At this time, he threw a punch. He was afraid that even an adult elephant on the earth would be killed by him.

"Great!"

Roja was in a good mood, with a bright smile on his face.

However, things were not over yet.

He came to the corpse of the abyss demon lion.

"Plunder!"

"Plundering"

"The plunder is successful. Congratulations to you for obtaining the talent: rage!"

The talent column in Roja's personal information changed again.

Talent level D—Rage: Strength has been increased by three times, which will continue for one minute.

This was the talent that was born for battle!

With the talent of "rage", Roja could even fight against the magical beast of LV5.

After plundering its talent, Roja used the dagger to separate the flesh and bones of the abyss demon lion.

In the killing world, as long as the creatures had levels, their flesh and bones would be strengthened by their strength.

Some high-level creatures' bones were even harder than steel.

As a result, the bones of the dead were usually made into weapons.

As Roja's trophy, the corpse of the abyss demon lion could help him earn the first bucket of money in the world of killing.

After being busy for a long time, there was only a pile of useless meat residue left on the corpse of the abyss demon lion.

And Roja continued his endless journey

Kill one LV1 magical beast, Roja LV1 (41/100)

Kill one LV2 magical beast, Roja LV1 (61/100)

Kill one LV5 magical beast, Roja LV3 (160/400)

Kill one LV7 magical beast, Roja LV5 (640/1600)

Chapter 4

One day, the human chatting channel became lively.

The discovery of a corpse shocked 150 million humans.

"We found the remains of an LV10 magical beast in the north of the forest!"

"What? LV10?"

"Are you sure you didn't say anything wrong?"

"Why did I lie to you? I saw it with Edward. He can testify."

"Yes. And judging from the wounds on the corpse, it should be killed by human beings."

"Damn it! I'm shocked!"

"Is there a human team strong enough to kill the magical beast of LV10?"

"We're in a team with Edward. The last time we met a magical beast in LV10, we were beaten badly."

"Edward can't even beat the magical beast of LV10. Who else can make it?"

"No one spoke?"

"Is... Is... The magical beast of LV10 killed by a single person?"

"How is that possible?"

"That's right. The magical beast is so powerful, not to mention the LV10 one."

"Edward has awakened level B talent. So far, he has only killed one magical beast of LV5."

"Yes, Edward is the one who has the highest level of talent."

"Edward was badly injured in that battle and hasn't been able to do strenuous exercise yet."

"But if it wasn't a single person who killed LV10's magical beast, then why didn't anyone reveal the information of that team?"

"Well..."

"That's impossible! That's incredible!"

"If he is really a man, will he be more talented than Edward?"

"Be quiet. Is there anyone in that team? Tell me who is so powerful. I hope he can stand out and lead us to find a way to save the earth as soon as possible."

Edward fell into silence as he looked at the projection.

Was it really a single person who killed the LV10 magical beast?

Otherwise, with so many people in the team, it was impossible for everyone to keep the secret.

If it was true... Edward's eyes became more and more passionate.

That person's talent level was definitely higher than his!

But that was not the point.

The point was that that person knew the law of the killing world better than all humans.

That was why he could improve his strength so quickly. 𝒍𝙞𝙗𝓻𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝙢

Otherwise, no matter how high a person's talent level was, he couldn't grow strong enough to kill the magical beast of LV10 in such a short time after he came to the killing world.

It was precise because of this that Edward asked that person to stand out and lead the human race.

During this period of time, he had led many of his companions to fight, which made him accumulate a very high reputation among humans.

Since he could make such a far-sighted opinion, the other humans naturally wouldn't refuse him.

On the contrary, most people would support Edward's decision.

It was urgent to find an opportunity to save the earth!

Humans needed a hero who could truly lead them to grow rapidly in the killing world.

Unfortunately, Edward's words were like a stone sunk into the sea, and there was no response for a long time.

This made many people disappointed.

They didn't know what that man was thinking.

But since he didn't want to reveal his identity, they couldn't force him to shoulder the responsibility and do the moral kidnapping.

However, not everyone was so considerate. Some began to curse that person, saying that he betrayed the human race...

In the north of the forest, under the shade of a big tree.

Roja's left hand was wrapped in blood-stained gauze. He looked at the curses in the chatting channel.

Then he felt that his injury was almost healed, so he removed the gauze and closed the chatting channel.

Roja's left hand was injured by the LV10 magical beast.

And he was also the hot topic in the chatting channel just now.

A hero leading the human race?

Huh... Who cares?

Heroes usually died the first.

He was a selfish person, and there was not a sense of responsibility in his heart.

When he was on the earth, he was the lowest class of society, being humiliated and oppressed!

At that time, no one was willing to speak for him!

They didn't even want to take a look at him!

Now that he was in the world of killing, he had to take the responsibility of leading the human race?

For what?

Sorry.

He just wanted himself to live a better life. As for the others... What did they have to do with him?

"I don't want to go back to the world that once made me desperate."

Roja looked up at the sky and sighed. His eyes were full of sadness.

Then Roja calmed down and walked towards Green-Hand Village.

In the past few days, he had killed more than one magical beast.

In addition to the magical beast of LV10, he also killed dozens of magical beasts of different sizes.

He had harvested a lot of materials, plundered a lot of talents, and his level had been promoted crazily.

Roja had more than ten times personal information than others.

Name: Roja

Grade: LV7 (5120/6400)

Talent: Eyes of God (level B), rage (level C), refinement (level C), poison making (level E), fire controlling (level F).

Skill: Trial of God (gather strength all over the body on a sword strike. The higher the level is, the stronger the power will be).

Body value: Blood vitality: 540 (500+40), energy 300, strength 120 (100+20), defense 30, agility 55 (45+10).

Backpack supplies: the blood of the abyss demon lion, the flesh of the abyss demon lion, and the blood of the three-headed dogs.

Now, Roja was going to earn his first bucket of money in the world of killing.

Green-Hand Village manor was a peaceful area, and no one would make a move there. Even the irrational magical beasts dared not.

There were many hawkers there who would sell and purchase all the materials in the killing world.

As for where the hawkers came from and what kind of race they belonged to, no one knew. They were all regarded as NPC.

After a while, Roja sold all the goods and materials in his backpack.

The most valuable things on the magical beast were worth 100000 gold coins in total.

In the world of killing, Roja was the richest man.

After all, almost everyone teamed up to kill the magical beasts, and the average value of the stolen goods was not much.

"Announcement: In 1002548 Green-Hand Village, a person is promoted to level 10, and the ranking list is activated!"

"Hint: only the top one hundred warriors can enter the list."

At this time, the mysterious voice sounded, or the mysterious man spoke again.

His voice echoed in everyone's heart.

In the eyes of all human beings, there was a projection.

The first place was Edward, LV10.

The second place was Kelvin Jia, LV9.

The third place was Weiss, LV9.

The fourth place was Amy, LV9.

The fifth place:

The seventy-sixth place: Roja, LV7.

"Why are their levels so high?"

Roja couldn't understand.

He had killed a magical beast of LV10 alone!

How could it be possible that he was still inferior to others in terms of strength?

And there were so many people in front of him.

There was no reason!

Wait

He left Green-Hand Village many days later than others.

He had only been out for three days.

On second thought, there were 150 million humans in the killing world. If Roja ranked seventy, he was at least 99% ahead of the others.

If that was the case, Roja was quite satisfied with the speed of his upgrading.

"Announcement: announce the reward system of the greenhand list. The reward will be given in real-time after the list is fixed in a month!"

Chapter 5

"The one who ranks first on the list will be rewarded with a top-level treasure box."

"From the second to the tenth on the list, you will be rewarded with a level B treasure box."

"From the eleventh to thirty on the list, three treasure boxes of level C will be awarded."

"From the thirty-first to fifty on the list, you will be rewarded with two treasure boxes of D level."

"From the fifty-first to seventy on the list, you will be rewarded with a treasure box of D level."

"From the seventy-first to one hundred on the list, you will be rewarded with a treasure box of level E."

"Treasure chest: the treasure chest is the reward set by the heavens. Open it and you will get the treasures inside."

"The treasure chests are divided into seven levels: F, E, D, C, B, A, and S. The higher the level was, the easier it would be to open a high-level item. A treasure box above level one must have legendary weapons."

The mysterious voice said the announcement slowly, but it ignited a fire in the hearts of everyone passing through.

In this world based on the law of killing, if one could get a legendary weapon, wouldn't it be invincible!

Looking at the chat channel, it was already in an uproar. Countless people were talking about what had just been announced excitedly. They were talking about how invincible they would be if they could also get legendary weapons.

Many people had already been eager to find teammates, planning to advance to unknown places, and swore to be ranked in the top 100 of the lists of green hands within a month. Of course, it would be better if they could win first place.

So did Roja. After hearing the announcement, he immediately ran to the edge of Green-Hand Village.

At present, various small groups had been occupied the place near Green-Hand Village to hunt down and kill the magical beasts. If he continued to stay here and compete with others, it would definitely affect the speed of his upgrade.

Moreover, because of the special nature of his talent, it was not a good thing to stay in a place full of people to take risks.

He knew that once his talent was discovered, it would definitely attract the covet of evil people.

He didn't want these troubles to affect his upgrade. After all, he was determined to get that treasure box of level A!

He left Green-Hand Village far away and saw a forest in front of him.

A faint mist shrouded the forest, making the entire forest blurry, like a huge beast. Standing outside the forest made people feel shortness of breath.

Anyone who had a little common sense would have thought that magical beast here must be extremely ferocious and powerful.

That was why there were few people here. After all, not everyone had the courage and talent to take risks like Roja. They would rather keep the low-grade magical beast than risk their lives.

Taking a deep breath, Roja walked into the forest. Within a few steps, he had disappeared in the thick fog.

There was a smell of magical beast in his nose, which made Roja frown and cover his nose.

But just with such a small movement, a black shadow suddenly flashed across the corner of his eyes, and at the same time, a fierce wind came to his face.

At this critical moment, his agility, which was different from ordinary people, made his waist lean back as if it was broken. He narrowly escaped the black shadow that slapped his face, and his whole body jumped to the side.

The black shadow in front of him finally showed its shape. It was a giant black bear that was more than two meters tall.

Magical beast: mutated giant bear of the forest, level: LV8, blood vitality 400/400, energy 130/130, strength 40, defense 15, agility 10. Skill: no. Explosive rate: 1%

With the talent of Eyes of God, the information of the forest giant bear was completely presented in front of Roja, which made him gasp. 𝓵𝙞𝙗𝙧𝙚𝒂𝙙.𝓬𝒐𝒎

What on earth was this mutated giant bear? Although it was only LV8, its data was not inferior to the abyss demon lion of LV10, which was a little behind on agility.

But Roja didn't want to retreat. He came here to kill the magical beast.

If he was afraid of the first magical beast, he'd better go back to Green-Hand Village as soon as possible.

"Come on, let me see what you are capable of!"

Roja sneered and crooked his finger at the giant bear.

The bear seemed to understand Roja's provocation and roared. It raised its claws and rushed towards Roja.

His heavy body hit the trunk, and the trunk as thick as a water tank was knocked down to the side.

In the blink of an eye, the bear came to Roja.

With a slap, Roja had already climbed up relying on his agility. He turned his head and saw the giant bear's claw slapping on the ground where he had just stood. Immediately, cracks spread like a cobweb, and countless rocks flipped up.

Roja couldn't help shivering. He quickly controlled his body and fell steadily on the tree, carefully observing the giant bear.

Although his current level had reached LV7, with the support of various talents, he was far ahead of ordinary people in terms of numbers.

But he had no doubt that if he was hit by this claw, he would probably be half disabled even if he did not die.

The only way to deal with it now was to rely on agility. Although this big thing had infinite strength, it moved slowly. In terms of long-term battle, I had the advantage!

In an instant, Roja had made up his mind.

He kicked his feet, and his body shot out from the tree. He actually took the initiative to kill the giant bear.

Just as the giant bear turned around and waved its claws angrily, his body had floated to the back of the giant bear like a leaf, and he cut its leg.

Although the bear let out a cry of pain, Roja frowned slightly.

His slash only caused a little damage to the bear and did not pierce through its thick skin at all. Even the bear's blood energy had only dropped by a pitiful number.

However, the giant bear seemed to be irritated. It roared angrily and clapped its claws randomly. Immediately, more than a dozen towering trees were cut down at the waist.

Humph, do you want to fight with me recklessly? Let's wait and see!

Roja shuttled through the claws of the giant bear like a butterfly. It looked dangerous, but in fact, even Roja's clothes were not touched by the giant bear.

Meanwhile, the energy in the data of the giant bear was also constantly dropping, and agility was also constantly dropping.

20/130!

Finally, the giant bear was out of breath and its claws became weak.

,m Roja knew that his chance had come!

Rage skill activated, and the blood-red light flashed and disappeared.

Roja was covered in blood. The dagger in his hand had been broken, but there was a human-shaped hole in the body of the giant bear! Under the blow just now, Roja actually passed through the giant bear!

"Announcement: Roja of Green-Hand Village completed the first kill of the mutated giant bear, and the reward is one point for prestige."

"Announcement: the first person with prestige appears, and the ranking list is opened."

Chapter 6

"Prestige point is extremely precious. After accumulating a certain number, you can exchange for a special reward."

"Only those who kill the mutated beasts for the first time can gain their prestige. And only the person who obtained the prestige could open the exclusive store of the prestige."

"The prestige list will be kept for a month, and the specific rewards will be given in the second month."

As the mysterious voice slowly spoke out, a ranking appeared on the projection in front of everyone.

It was as if the ranking list had been released at the very beginning. However, this time, there was only a single name on the ranking list-Roja!

All of a sudden, the world chat channel was in an uproar, and countless people were fiercely discussing.

"Who is he? Why haven't I heard of his name? Does anyone know who he is?"

"The mutated giant bear? What's this magical beast? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"Ah, I found him! He is also on the ranking list! It seems that his ranking is not low!"

"What? Please take me with you? Look at me! I'm so sweet!" 𝘭𝘪𝘣𝑟𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝘤𝑜𝓂

"Why? It's unfair! I was the first one to kill LV3 magical beast! Why didn't you give me any prestige?"

In the room, Edward frowned and looked at the name list in front of him.

The mutated giant bear was indeed a name that he had never heard of. It was absolutely impossible to be the magic beast gaining points that could appear near Green-Hand Village.

But he didn't dare to go into the forest far away from Green-Hand Village.

There was only Roja's name on the list. Did he go hunting alone?

Did it mean that he was also the one who had fought against the abyss demon before?

Thinking of this, Edward jumped out of bed and walked out of the room, ignoring his previous injury, speaking to his member.

"Assemble at once and choose the LV8 or above. Let's go to the fog forest together! If I'm not wrong, the hero who can save the human and lead the human is likely to be there!"

The team member looked at the excited Edward and was stunned. He had thought that their previous appeal had made Edward give up hope on the so-called human Savior, but he did not expect that he was still so concerned.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up!"

Noticing that his teammate was still in a daze, Edward immediately raised his hand and pushed him. It was not until then that the latter realized what had happened and ran to gather more people.

I hope my judgment is correct this time. Humans need the guidance of heroes, but that guide won't be me!

Edward took a deep breath and said to himself.

Then the news that Edward took someone to the fog forest spread all over Green-Hand Village like a gust of wind.

It was known to all that magical beast might have prestige attached was in the fog forest, which made more people eager to fight in the forest.

In the mist, Roja sat on a big tree, holding his breath.

He was wrapped in the sand, barely covering the heavy smell of blood on his body.

He didn't have time to deal with the corpse of the giant bear. He just plundered an E-level talent—flesh strengthening from it.

It was not that he didn't want to deal with the corpse of the giant bear, but the heavy smell of blood had attracted the attention of countless magical beasts. If he moved slower, he might be surrounded.

The time limit of his rage talent has passed. If he continued to stay here and fought with them, he would definitely be courting death.

A few minutes after he hid it, several magical beasts pounced on the corpse of the giant bear, sucking blood through its bones, and making one's hair rise.

Roja didn't feel relieved until all the magical beasts were full and disappeared. He began to check his condition.

Name: Roja

Grade: LV8 (6500/8000)

Talent: eyes of God (level B), rage (level C), refinement (level C), poison making (level E), fire controlling (level F)

Skill: true God trial (gather all your strength on a sword strike. The higher the level, the stronger the power will be.)

Body value: Blood vitality: 740 (700+40), energy 350, strength 180 (160+20), defense 80, agility 60 (50+10)

Backpack material: a mysterious item dropped by the mutated giant bear. 100000 gold coins.

This kind of board data could be said to be extremely awesome. Even some people in LV9 were not as high in value as him.

While after the power of the giant bear entered Roja's body, his thin body became stronger a bit. In contrast, the value of his blood and strength increased the most.

Roja couldn't help laughing out because of the plundered skills from the giant bear.

Flesh strengthening: level E talent. Within three minutes, all negative effects will be eliminated, and your resistance and defense will be increased by 5%.

Although this was only an E-level talent, and 5% of the resistance and defense was slightly better than nothing, the key point was that the negative effects would be eliminated!

Roja had a talent for poison making. The encounter of the abyss demon lion had confirmed that the negative effect on the battle was huge.

But now he had the talent of strengthening his physical body. If others used a talent like making poison to him, it would be no different from digging their own grave.

Then Roja looked at the mysterious item in his backpack, which was dropped by the mutated giant bear.

According to the information he had read before, the possibility of a giant bear exploding was only 1%. It seemed that this time, it was really lucky for him to seize the 1% chance.

"Open!"

The cloud of smoke in his backpack flashed a few times, and then with a "ding" sound, a heavy box appeared in front of him.

"Level E treasure box: there is a 98% chance of opening a level one item, and there is a 2% chance of opening a level two item."

Roja took a deep breath and opened the treasure box.

"Ding!"

With a light sound, the treasure box disappeared in front of him, and Roja had a heavy knife in his hand. The heavy knife almost made Roja lose his balance.

"Congratulations to your acquiring of a level two item, giant bear blade."

Giant bear blade: it is made of the bones of the mutated giant bear. It is sharp and hard to destroy. Attack+15, defense+10. Plus skill: giant bear roar.

Skill description: this skill is attached to the weapon and cannot be removed. If the weapon is damaged, the skill will also disappear. After being released, it could suppress 50% of the enemy's recovery ability.

Roja couldn't help but feel ecstatic as he read the instructions.

That was 2%! It seemed that he was really a man of great luck!

Chapter 7

What surprised Roja more was that the blade also had the ability to restrain the enemy's recovery.

Although this skill might not be very useful in the face of most enemies, if the enemies happened to have the recovery skill or talent, then he would be their nemesis!

It happened that his previous dagger had been damaged in the battle, and this heavy blade had filled in the vacancy of his weapon.

He put the blade on his lap, took a deep breath, and used the skill of refinement.

The nature of this blade was already so amazing. No one knew how high it would reach after being refined.

After a ray of light, the nature of the giant bear blade had been completely changed. Not only did it increase attack power by 25, but its defense also increased by 15. More importantly, the skill of restraining recovery increased from 50% to 70%!

Roja took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He took it as a treasure. Looking at the blade in his hand, he couldn't help shouting.

At this moment, a sense of crisis enveloped him.

He quickly lowered his body and made himself integrated with the leaves. When he lowered his head, he found that five wolf-like magical beasts had gathered under the tree he sat.

It must have been caused by the noise when he opened the treasure chest and purified the items just now.

Magical beast: Demonic wolf, level: LV6, blood vitality 200/200, energy 100/100, strength 25, defense 8, agility 20. Skill: no. Explosive rate: 0.5%

Roja had just read the information of the magical beast under his feet and saw one of the giant wolves hit the trunk hard. The other wolves also followed and shook the huge tree.

Roja lost his balance and had to jump down from the tree. As soon as his toes touched the ground, he saw the wolves turn around at the same time and roar at the same time.

The roar seemed to have a strange power. Roja felt dizzy and slowed down his movement.

Dizzy.

Roja's board reminded him of his state in time. In the blink of an eye, the demonic wolf had rushed to his face.

Flesh strengthening talent activated!

With Roja's thought, the negative dizziness was immediately dispelled. He regained his physical condition and had no time to raise the blade. He only had a hard punch on the giant wolf's mouth.

"Ouch!"

The demonic wolf let out a miserable howl. It did not expect that the dizzy enemy could counterattack so quickly and it was hit in the mouth by this punch.

The heavy force hit its head like a cannonball, and a hard wolf tooth was immediately smashed into pieces. The body of the demonic wolf, like a broken pocket, crashed into a tree.

A cloud of white light came out of its body and quickly integrated into Roja's body.

This demonic wolf was killed by a single punch!

Roja was also surprised by his power, which made him instantly full of confidence.

Seeing that their companions were killed in an instant, the remaining several demonic wolves became ferocious because of the smell of blood. They let out the dizzy howl and pounced on Roja at the same time.

Roja sneered. He didn't retreat but moved forward. But this time, he didn't use his fist.

The heavy blade waved like a windmill, splitting the hard body of the demonic wolf into two. Even the hard head of the wolf could not stop the blade at all.

In less than two minutes, the four giant wolves also turned into corpses.

"System, plunder."

Roja didn't dare to neglect. He walked to the demonic wolf and began to plunder their talent.

Although he was very confident now, he was not stupid. The smell of blood here was so strong, and it might attract some incredible magical beast.

Plundering...

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining talent: dizzy!"

Level E talent dizzy: emit sound waves. The target will be dizzy for five seconds. The time will increase with the growth of the user level. 𝑙𝒾𝘣𝘳𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝓂

Roja couldn't help but whistle happily.

This controlling skill was really practical. Five seconds of dizziness was enough for the trend of life and death battle.

When he plundered the talent of the second demonic wolf, as expected, he also got dizzy.

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for the second time to obtain talent: dizzy!"

"Two times of automatically merging and strengthening! Your talent for dizziness has been upgraded to level D-strong dizziness!"

"Strong dizziness: the basic dizziness time lasts for seven seconds. At the same time, there is a 50% chance of a second of freeze effect!"

"Ha-ha! I can't believe it!"

Roja grinned from ear to ear. He had thought that the talents of the other wolves were wasted, but he didn't expect that the plundering talents could be automatically piled up!

The 50% of freeze effect was much stronger than that of dizziness!

If it was just simple dizziness, although the enemy had fallen into a negative state of dizziness, he could still make a certain reaction.

But if he was standing still, it meant that he could not move at all!

Although there was only one second left, if it was used properly, this second was enough to determine life and death!

However, when Roja was plundering the other wolves, he couldn't help but frown.

"Plunder failed. Hint: after plundering two times of magical beast under LV20 successfully, it reached the maximum plunder."

System reminded him in time, which enlightened Roja.

He was not a greedy person. It was enough for him to merge his talent and evolve stronger talent. He didn't feel disappointed that a magical beast could only be extracted two times.

It seemed that when upgrading and killing magical beasts in the future, he had to try his best to find different magical beasts.

He made up his mind.

At this time, he also heard the roar of the magical beast. He didn't dare to neglect it. He quickly pulled out the teeth of several demonic wolves and put them into his backpack. After a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the forest fog.

Wolf's teeth were the most precious thing of wolves. Even ordinary wolf teeth were priceless in Green-Hand Village.

Time was pressing. It was too late for him to deal with the corpses of the demonic wolves. He could only take away the most precious wolf teeth. Perhaps it would be of great use in the future.

As for the scene of the murder case here, it would be divided up by a magical beast.

However, Roja didn't notice that his ranking had risen by leaps and bounds to the top fifty!

Chapter 8

Another corpse!

The expressions of Edward and the other four people were heavy. This was the fifth corpse they had encountered after entering the fog forest!

The five of them, except Edward was LV10, they were all in LV9, which could be called the most luxurious group of the Green-Hand Village. But even so, they still felt no sense of security.

Ten minutes after they entered the fog forest, they encountered the remains of the giant bear. 𝓁𝘪𝒷𝘳ℯ𝘢𝑑.𝒸𝘰𝑚

This confirmed Edward's guess.

But he didn't expect that there were more people who were keen on upgrading than he had imagined.

After entering the fog forest, those with higher levels could even run out even if they couldn't defeat the magical beasts.

However, most people didn't know the level difference of magical beast here at all. They were overwhelmed by the opportunity of upgrading, muddled into it, and ended up being beheaded.

"Damn it! What are these people doing? Haven't they seen our announcement?"

Looking at the broken corpses on the ground, Edward tried his best to hold back the feeling of vomiting and said weakly.

"They... They have seen it, but they all said that... We don't want everyone to upgrade, and we want to monopolize the opportunity of upgrading..."

Ellena, the only female member of the team, whispered.

"Well, now we have to find the person named Roja. Now people didn't believe what we have said. Only when the first person who entered the fog forest stands out and speaks can we stop everyone from continuing to court death."

Edward was a little upset. The situation was far beyond his expectations. It seemed to be the wisest way to find Roja and let him testify.

"Wait, we found something ahead!"

A thin man shouted. His name was Eddie, who was in charge of reconnaissance in the team. His talent was level C—Hawkeye, which was the best for reconnaissance.

They rushed to Eddie's seat, but what they saw made them gasp.

The remains of the five demonic wolves scattered all over the ground, and the splashing blood drew a strange picture on the ground.

Although most of the flesh and blood had been eaten up by the magical beasts, the tragic battlefield still made one's scalp tingle.

"Edward, can you do that? Five demonic wolves! They were killed in no more than a quarter of an hour. Otherwise, even if that person can kill the magical beast, he will be swallowed by the magical beast caused by the smell of blood!"

"But look at the heads of these four wolf corpses, their teeth have been taken away, and the rest of one's teeth are also broken. It means that after all this is done, the person who did it has time to take the treasure and run away!"

Eddie's voice was trembling. When he asked this question, he knew that Edward couldn't do it.

"Master! No wonder he killed the mutated giant bear! He is even alone!"

Edward couldn't help but hold his head. Although he had known that Roja was powerful, he didn't expect him to be that powerful.

"Well, let's get out of here quickly. The smell of blood hasn't dissipated yet. Maybe it will attract something else."

Noticing that everyone was in a daze, Eddie said quickly. Hawkeye's talent brought him the extraordinary perception. He knew he couldn't stay here any longer.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, their hearts trembled at the same time, as if they were gripped by an invisible big hand.

The air seemed to have become a large piece of jelly, and every breath became extremely difficult.

The invisible pressure surrounded their bodies, almost breaking their bones.

Finally, Ellena couldn't stand it anymore. Her legs became weak and she collapsed to the ground, letting out a sharp cry from her mouth.

"Eh? Why is still someone here? Is this place that gaining points targeted so soon?"

Roja said to himself with a frown.

He had already left the place where he killed the demonic wolves and planned to go deeper into the forest, but the scream made him confused.

Generally speaking, the level of the magical beast here was not low, and his position was deeper.

Even those who wanted to reach higher levels would flinch when they came here, but the scream couldn't deceive them. Someone must have been attacked.

And judging from the sound, it was from the place where he killed the demonic wolf!

Roja took a deep breath and decided to go back.

Maybe he could get some useful talent again.

Of course, he was also very careful. After all, the fog forest was full of danger. Who knew if there would be a magical beast that could imitate the human voice?

Lowering his body, Roja tried his best to hide his breath and sneaked back to the place where he had met the demonic wolf.

When he was about ten meters away from that position, Roja climbed up a big tree.

The thick branches and leaves could completely cover his body, and he could clearly see the battlefield from its height.

He narrowed his eyes and gathered his eyesight, trying to see what happened there.

But in the next second, he covered his mouth tightly and opened his eyes wide.

There were four magical beasts, which were surrounding five people.

No! To be exact, there were only four people, because the fifth person was in the mouth of a tiger-shaped magical beast!

Half of the man's body had been swallowed into the mouth of the magical beast. His hollow eyes were staring at Roja.

Hell! Did they want to die here?

Roja couldn't help cursing in his mind, he looked away. If he continued to look at it, he would definitely vomit.

Eyes of God also showed the information of the four magical beasts in front of him.

There were four magical beasts, jackal, wolf, tiger, and leopard, and each of them was LV8. Their values far exceeded the same type of magical beasts.

What made Roja's scalp tingle most was the dazzling word "Mutated" before their names!

Although he had killed an LV8 mutated giant bear in the forest alone, and his strength and level had increased greatly, he had no chance of winning against four mutated beasts at the same time. If he forced an attack, he would only have a dead end.

I'm sorry... It's not that I don't want to save you, but that I can't risk my own life for you.

It's all your fault. You shouldn't have come here.

Roja whispered in his heart and was about to leave this place.

Chapter 9

Roja leaned against the tree trunk, not daring to make any noise.

Although he was very careful, the wind around him brought his smell to the noses of the four magical beasts.

The jackal suddenly twisted its ferocious head, and two rays of fierce light shot out from its eyes.

"Damn it!" 𝑙𝘪𝒷𝓇𝑒𝑎𝑑.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Roja exclaimed in his heart. He had calculated thousands of times, but he forgot that the smell would expose his whereabouts.

At this moment, he had no time to hide his body. He kicked hard on the tree trunk with his feet, and his body flew backward. After landing, he didn't dare to delay and ran wildly.

However, after only two steps, he felt a gust of cold wind behind his ears, and the malicious spirit overflowed as if to cut his own flesh.

In a hurry, Roja had to dodge aside. The cold wind blew his head and rushed out.

Roja felt a sharp pain in his head. He reached out his hand and touched it, only to see the blood in it. Although he had dodged quickly, the cold wind still left a long scratch on his face.

The demonic jackal in front of him was standing like a human, with its front legs crossed. A mocking expression appeared on its ferocious face.

Agility80/80!

The information provided by the Eyes of God stunned Roja. It was 20 points higher than his agility! No wonder it could catch up with him in such a short time.

The jackal let out a long howl from its mouth, and a light flashed through its misty eyes. It clung to its slender body and almost turned into a flash of blurry lightning.

Roja was overwhelmed by the fear of being targeted by the hunters.

At this moment, it was too late for him to rely on his eyes to see the reaction. The speed of the jackal was too fast. If he looked at it through the eyes, it was likely that his throat would be cut in the next second.

He could only rely on his senses to constantly dodge, but even so, more than a dozen deep and shallow wounds had appeared on his body. The green-hand cloth that he wore all the time had already been broken, it hung on his body like an act.

"Don't give up! Cooperate carefully!"

With the shouting of the human, Roja finally recognized what was in front of him.

He couldn't help but give a bitter smile. He had thought that he was trying his best to escape, but in fact, he had returned here under the attack of the jackal.

It was not until Roja saw the jackal's face that he realized that the jackal didn't intend to kill him there. Instead, it was making fun of him in order to force him back.

Now he, like Edward and the other three, was surrounded by the magical beast.

"Roja?"

Edward was also surprised to see Roja, but he just called out Roja's name without saying anything. After all, the situation was too urgent to say anything more.

How did he know my name? Have I met him before?

Roja thought to himself, but he didn't dare to ask. He just tried his best to deal with the attacks of the four beasts.

They were now in the encirclement of the four beasts. Only five people could barely resist the attack if they worked together.

But it was not a permanent solution. Roja saw a deep wound on the thin man's body, which almost broke his spine. The other three were out of breath.

If it weren't for Edward, the four men wouldn't have been able to make it through.

"Bro, I know you once killed the mutated magical beast. What method did you use? As you can see, now the situation is urgent. If we can't kill them, I'm afraid we will become their food."

After the attack of the four beasts, Edward asked Roja, gasping for breath.

"I'm sorry. It's not that I'm hiding something. It's just that I really don't know. I killed a bear, not these four kinds in front of me."

Roja shook his head, but his eyes were fixed on the thinnest jackal among the four beasts.

Although the magical beast was extremely fast and hard to guard against, as a magical beast that pursued speed, its defense was definitely the lowest of the four beasts.

"Have you also targeted it? It is the most fragile one, but it is also the fastest. Do you have any way to subdue it?"

Edward took a look at Roja's eyes. As the leader of the team, he could easily figure out which magical beast was the most fragile one. However, since there was no proper talent to limit the jackal, he could only let it harass him.

"I have a way to deal with it, but you four have to show your flaws. You know what it means, right?"

Roja said coldly. If he was alone, he couldn't compare with the jackal with high speed. But if someone offered to show his weakness to lure the jackal, then Roja would have a chance. The strong dizziness was enough to kill the jackal even if he didn't trigger the freezing effect.

Edward kept silent and resisted the beast's attack silently.

He knew what Roja meant. In the face of such a strong attack of the mutated magical beasts, the four of them were forced to show their flaws, which meant that they were handed over their lives to the magical beasts.

"Captain, I heard everything."

Eddie suddenly said. He had been gritting his teeth all the time. At this time, a relieved smile unexpectedly appeared on his face.

"If the jackal with the best agility didn't die, we wouldn't be able to escape from here. Even if we escaped, we would still be caught up. My wound is hopeless!"

"Roja, I believe you. You are the first person to kill the mutated magical beast! Our captain has always hoped that you can lead the human race, so you must live on!"

After saying that, Eddie took a big step forward and took the initiative to get out of the five people's formation.

"No..."

Edward shouted. He raised his hand subconsciously, trying to grab Eddie. But Roja grabbed him back.

The next second, a gloomy cyclone came and Eddie's body was split into two pieces. The jackal, on the other hand, paused for a second when it finished its attack.

"Awoo..."

Roja let out a long howl, and the sound precisely hit the jackal.

"The dizziness effect is triggered!"

"Freezing effect triggered!"

There was a 50% chance that he would hit the target and the effect of freezing would be triggered. Under the effect of dizziness and freezing, the red mist in the jackal's eyes became thicker and his whole body froze in the midair.

Roja took a step forward, and the giant bear's blade rolled back. Immediately, blood spurted out!

Chapter 10

Roja cut the jackal in half before it could scream.

The stinky blood splashed out and fell on the ground, making a hissing sound. Looking at the ground, small holes had been made by the jackal's blood one after another.

Seeing this bloody scene, everyone felt a little nauseated. The pungent stench of blood almost made their eyes blind, but no one dared to slack off. They all held their weapons and looked vigilantly at the remaining three magical beasts.

However, after the jackal was killed, the other three magical beasts didn't attack immediately. Instead, they slowly walked together and kept roaring, as if they were whispering to each other.

Then, with a roar of the huge tiger, the three magical beast soldiers slowly retreated, and then spread their four hooves and quickly disappeared in the fog forest.

At this time, a white light slowly floated out of the jackal and integrated into Roja's body.

In an instant, Roja felt that his body was much lighter, and the muscles in his limbs were full of bounce as if he could fly out with a little strength.

Then he looked at the attribute panel. After killing this mutated jackal, his experience directly increased to 7600. Although his blood vitality was reduced because of the broken cloth, agility had increased a lot, which was comparable to a jackal.

What made Roja more excited was that there was a level E treasure box in his backpack. Presumably, it fell from the bag when he killed the jackal just now.

"Thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, none of us would have survived. Let's get to know each other. My name is Edward."

Edward walked up to Roja and reached out his hand. There was still a touch of sadness in his eyes. The sacrifice of his two companions made him very sad, but he still tried to cheer himself up and said to Roja.

"This time we entered the fog forest to look for you. It was you who killed the abyss demon lion and the mutated giant bear in the forest, right? It seems that you are stronger than I expected."

"Single kill! You are clearly not as powerful as me, but you can do something I can't do. We need a hero to lead us when we are in danger."

Edward was telling the truth.

"Wait, how did you know that I killed the abyss demon lion and the mutated giant bear in the forest?"

Roja frowned. He didn't remember that he had told anyone about it.

"Because there is an announcement that you killed the mutated giant bear in the forest and gained prestige. When we arrived here, we saw two battlefields of you, so I guess that abyss demon lion was also killed by you."

Edward replied frankly.

Roja patted his head and then remembered the previous announcement. At that time, he was trying to avoid the magical beast, which was attracted by the smell of blood, and soon he met the demonic wolf, so he had no time to pay attention to the announcement.

Now looking at his lonely name on the prestige list, he felt like weeping but had no tears.

He had a divine-level plunder system, which was comparable to the SSS-level talent! Now that he was exposed to the public, how could he collect talent silently in the future!

"I'm not interested in what you said. I want to live a better life than being a human hero. As for being a savior, you'd better find someone else."

Roja was a little upset and waved at Edward.

"But... But you are also a human. You are our kind. I don't know how many compatriots are still suffering in every place. How can we just sit by and do nothing?"

Seeing that Roja was about to leave, Edward shouted at him.

"Sorry, I'm not as noble as you, and I don't have such a broad-minded ideal."

Roja said without looking back.

"How can you do this? Edward believed that you would be the Savior of the human race. Because of you, we have lost two companions. Don't you have any sympathy?"

Ellena couldn't help crying out. Tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably at the thought of her two companions who had died miserably.

"How come?"

Roja stopped and repeated this sentence. He slowly turned around and smiled coldly.

"Did I beg you to come to me? Or did I send you a message and ask you to come? I have the ability, so I'm here to kill the magic beasts. But you overestimated yourself. Don't you think it's ridiculous that you came here and accused me of losing your companion because of me?"

Being scolded by Roja, Ellena wanted to retort, but she had no reason. She could only open her mouth in vain.

"And you, Edward, if I'm not mistaken, you used to be a rich man with a good education. That's why you have such great ambitions."

Roja turned to Edward and said. The latter had no choice but to nod under his gaze.

Before he came here, he did come from a rich family and received the best education in the world. Otherwise, he would not have awakened the level B talent.

"That's it."

Roja sneered.

"Good education gives you talent so that you can be in the spotlight. As for me, I used to be just a nobody living at the bottom of society!" 𝓵𝓲𝓫𝒓𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"I still remember that the man who cut my salary was a police officer, the man who robbed me unscrupulously and those passers-by who looked on coldly. Who spoke for me at that time? My dear Edward, where were you at that time? Were you enjoying your luxurious dinner at ease?"

Roja said sarcastically. Seeing that the faces of Edward and others were getting worse and worse, he snorted.

"At that time, no one would come to save me. Why do you come to beg me to make contributions to save the whole human race? Why should I save those who have never paid attention to me?"

Roja took a deep breath and turned around slowly.

"Don't forget that I saved you just now. If you still want to thank me for saving your lives, please keep my identity a secret after you leave here. I don't like to be disturbed."

"Besides... I advise you to give up this unrealistic dream. No one will be willing to risk their lives to be the savior for irrelevant people. If you insist, you can only drown yourself with your dreams!"

After saying that, Roja kicked his legs on the ground and his body turned into a beam of light. In a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the depths of the forest.

Chapter 11

"Captain, he has left. We have to leave here as soon as possible. The smell of blood here will soon attract other magical beasts."

Seeing that Edward was still standing there and watching Roja leave, Ellena walked over carefully and pulled Edward's clothes.

"... I know. Take Eddie's body with us. We'll leave the fog forest right away. We can't come here for the time being."

Edward shook his head hard and tried to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, but what Roja had just said had been hovering in his mind for a long time.

"Do we really have to help that hateful man to keep his identity? Such an ungrateful person must be a scumbag! He was wasting his talent!"

Ellena said indignantly.

"Well, no matter what, he saved our lives so we protected his identity. Just take it as returning his favor."

Edward sighed, and he turned to look at Ellena, asking.

"Ellena, if we were not born in a good family and well-educated, would we really have the idea of saving the whole human race now?"

Ellena was stunned for a moment. She opened her mouth but didn't know how to answer. When she was in a daze, Edward had already smiled at her. Carrying the corpse on his back, he walked out of the forest first.

In this way, Edward went to the fog forest in a team, but almost all of them were killed. The survivors were seriously injured, and the news that they couldn't get any result spread like wildfire.

This caused a stir in the chatting channel. Edward and others had said that they wanted to seize the opportunity of upgrading, but now they stopped talking.

Even Edward couldn't conquer the fog forest, so no one else would overestimate themselves. For a moment, the fog forest was equal to the life forbidden zone.

However, everyone was whispering in their hearts, wondering who this Roja was. However, Edward and the others kept their mouths shut and only said that they had never seen Roja.

Since no one got any news, they had to give up. 𝑙𝒾𝘣𝘳𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝓂

Of course, all this had nothing to do with Roja, who was still in the fog forest. He didn't pay attention to the chatting channel, nor would he actively send messages to make trouble for himself.

After Edward and the others left, his private messages had been bombarded with hundreds of people who wanted to friend him every day, but Roja ignored them and pretended not to see them.

Now he was sitting in a hidden tree cave, ready to open the treasure box in front of him.

This level E treasure box exploded when he killed the diabolic beast.

Because of the presence of Edward and other people at that time, he had no time to plunder the talent of the mutated demonic jackal. When he went back to fetch it later, the dead body of the demonic jackal had already been eaten up, and there was no place for him to plunder it.

He had kept it in his mind for a long time. Now he only hoped that the treasure box could give him something good.

"Open!"

With a flash of light, the treasure box slowly opened, and a thin robe appeared on his body.

"Congratulations on your acquiring the first-grade item agile windbreaker."

"Agile windbreaker: it's made of the demonic jackal's fur. It's thin and tough. With the help of light wind, it can make the cultivator move faster. Blood vitality +20, agility +10."

Roja was a little disappointed. He wasn't so lucky to acquire the second-grade item this time. Anyway, it was a windbreaker, which could replace his ruined cloth.

Although it didn't add much blood vitality, it still added an agility attribute that could be added together, which was not bad.

"Refinement!"

Roja used the talent of refinement in the agile windbreaker. With a dazzling light, the agility of the agile windbreaker was increased to 20, which also made Roja's agility reach 100.

Roja stood up. The windbreaker didn't weigh him at all, but when Roja moved his body, an indescribable feeling spread all over his body.

Every muscle in his perception seemed to be so clear. His movement was several times faster than before, and his reaction was also improved by several times.

"Well, let's see how far I can reach now."

Roja said to himself. His body fell slowly like a leaf.

Before he landed on the ground, he touched a tree trunk with his tiptoe, and his whole body suddenly became blurred. He moved forward at a lightning speed.

Although the tree trunks crisscrossed, Roja couldn't stop him at all under his strong reaction. He just needed to move his body slightly and could pass through the gap of the tree trunk perfectly.

Roja didn't stop until he headed a kilometer away. He couldn't help exclaiming in surprise.

It took him less than a minute to travel a thousand meters! And he still had the strength!

This feeling was really relaxing!

Roja heaved a sigh of relief and began to look at the place where he was. He was too excited just now and didn't know where he was going. Now that he was standing still, he had to observe the terrain carefully.

The only difference between this place and the previous one was the grass here, which was as high as the knee of a person and it looked luxuriant. No one knew what nourishment had sustained it to grow to such an extent.

But what made Roja nervous was indeed the footprints in the grass.

The lush grass was trampled by an unknown magical beast, and the collapsed grass took the shape of a claw print of the fierce beast, spreading far away.

Moreover, according to Roja's deduction, the time that the magical beast passed through here was at most half an hour different from the time he arrived here. Even the grass that was trampled down by the magical beast was still oozing sap.

Taking a deep breath, Roja carefully lifted his tiptoe and stepped on the claw prints of the previous fierce beast. He did this to hide his footprints.

He decided to follow and have a look. Maybe he would find something unexpected.

With his current agility ability, he was confident that he could escape even if he encountered some magical beasts that he couldn't deal with.

The footprints extended all the way to the depths of the forest. The magical beast seemed to run, and the distance between its steps became wider and wider. Roja had to carefully control his body in order to hide.

What finally appeared in front of him was a dark cave. The wind was blowing, and the cave was so dark and deep that it seemed to be swallowed up with just a glance.

Roja couldn't help swallowing, but since he had come here, of course, he didn't want to shrink back.

Chapter 12

The dark cave didn't have much impact on Roja's eyesight. When his eyes adapted to the darkness of the cave, he could barely see the surrounding environment.

The only thing that made him a little uncomfortable was the strong smell of blood.

Along the way, the smell of blood almost condensed into a substance. He had no choice but to go out of the cave, pull out grass into small balls, and stuffed them into his nose. Only then did he feel better.

As he went down, the whole place was suddenly enlightened. The narrow cave suddenly became wide. It turned out to be a huge hole hidden underground.

Countless strange flowers and plants were particularly lush in this underground cave. The sparkling lights made this place dreamy as if it was a fairyland that only existed in fairy tales.

Roja was also surprised. He started the eyes of God talent and saw the grass closest to him glowing suddenly.

"Snake grass: it is said that it grows by soaking the snake's blood. Taking it can increase its toxicity by 100%."

Hiss.

Roja took a deep breath and looked at the herbs again. As expected, none of them could grow in this cave was ordinary. All kinds of herbs had their own unique effects.

He didn't expect that there would be so many strange flowers and plants in this cave. It was no wonder that the magical beast came here. If I were the owner of such a cave as the magical beast, wouldn't I be afraid no matter what injuries I encountered?

Roja sighed in his heart, but he didn't immediately reach out to pick the herbs in front of him. 𝘭𝘪𝑏𝑟ℯ𝒶𝑑.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Although these flowers and plants were powerful, Roja still remembered that he arrived here by following a magical beast.

This cave belonged to that magical beast. Perhaps the magical beast had been watching him since he came in, waiting for an opportunity to take action.

Roja was determined to take away the herbs here, and he was also going to hunt the magical beast!

Otherwise, if the magical beast ran away and let it remember his smell, it would inevitably cause endless trouble!

Roja's body clung to the wall of the cave, trying to hide in the darkness and move forward slowly.

As he passed by the strange flowers and plants, the smell of blood and the stench of the magical beast became more and more intense. Presumably, the magical beast should be in front of him.

Holding his breath, Roja carefully stretched out an eye behind the stone wall. When he saw clearly the scene in front of him, he didn't dare to move.

There was not only one magical beast but three!

The four mutated magical beasts that besieged him before, and the mutated demonic jackal had been killed by him, the other three had all gathered here, lowering their heads, as if they were waiting for something.

To Roja's surprise, the three magical beasts' eyes were covered with a layer of invisible blood mist.

In the previous battle, he didn't have time to look at them carefully. Now, when he looked carefully, he found that these three ferocious magical beasts were like puppets as if they were manipulated by something.

"Ha-ha, now that you were here, my friend, show yourself! Do you really think I couldn't detect you?"

A gritting sound came out of the three mutated magical beasts. Then, with a sound, a skinny man stood up from the three magical beasts.

It was more like a mummy than a human being. His dry skin was firmly attached to his bones. His original appearance could not be seen, and his twisted features were like bugs clinging to his head.

The most shocking thing was his body. A huge wound spread from his left shoulder to his right crotch, which made half of his body hang aside. He could even see maggots wriggling back and forth inside his body.

As soon as the dry corpse appeared, the rotten smell spread out. It took Roja a lot of strength to resist the impulse to vomit. He activated the eyes of God's talent and looked at the mummy.

"Race: human. Origin: medium world. Grade: LV9. Property: the rotten body that needs blood irrigating. Extremely evil."

LV9... Roja was speechless for a long time. This human who had become a mummy was one level higher than him, and even if his body had become like this, he was still alive.

In particular, the words "The rotten body that needs blood irrigating. Extremely evil" in the property bar made Roja feel chilly all over.

In this cave, there were only three mutated magical beasts and himself. Since the three magical beasts were beside the mummy, they naturally helped him. Then where was the source of the blood?

Of course, it was Roja!

Roja turned around and ran away. He didn't want to die here. It was already difficult for him to fight against the three mutated magical beasts alone. Now there was another strange mummy, only the stupid man would continue to stay here!

Seeing that Roja was about to run away, the mummy was not in a hurry. Instead, he opened his dry mouth and laughed stiffly, with a look of contempt in his eyes.

Of course, he didn't mind playing with this weak human for a while.

He was a high-level human from the medium world. Even if his body had become like this, the human from the lower world couldn't bear him at all!

What he needed was fresh blood! Although he controlled several mutated magical beasts to help him hunt animals and humans, and brought blood to him.

However, the magical beasts were still the beast after all. After being dragged back, there would always be only dead bodies.

But now, a human dared to break into his territory so boldly. Wasn't this equivalent to bringing him delicious food?

Hearing the cold laughter of the mummy behind him, Roja felt his scalp tingling. He tried his best to pass through the crowd of strange flowers and plants and escape from the entrance of the cave.

However, before he could escape to the entrance of the cave, a huge stone fell down from the top of the cave and sealed the cave to the ground.

"Hahaha, don't struggle anymore! Just turn into my blood!"

The mummy's voice came from the darkness. Roja turned his head and saw the mummy sitting on the back of the demonic tiger swaggeringly, surrounding him with the other two magical beasts.

Blood! It was blood!

A look of intoxication appeared in the mummy's eyes. The smell of blood was so tempting that he could no longer bear it.

He raised a finger and slowly pointed at Roja. Then a dark light gradually enlarged in Roja's eyes.

The light seemed to contain everything in the universe, slowly rotating as if to devour Roja's whole soul.

Chapter 13

Roja felt dizzy and his eyes followed the black light between the fingers of the mummy.

An indescribable sense of comfort spread in his heart as if as long as he immersed himself in it all the time, he could get rid of it and achieve unimaginable happiness.

His body seemed to be bound by countless silk threads, and he began to dance by the control of some kind of power, singing a jubilant song.

No, I can't do this. Wake up! You are a person, not a puppet controlled by others!

A voice echoed in Roja's heart, making Roja's eyes, which had turned gray, return to be pellucid.

"What? What's wrong with me? What did I do just now?

Roja suddenly became sober. He shook his eyes, trying to see the scene clearly.

But then he found that his body was twisting at a strange angle, and the demonic wolf had already spread over his head, and its two claws were almost reaching his shoulders.

Flesh strengthening talent: it was activated at a critical moment. It helped Roja disperse the mysterious power that controlled his body. His limbs were finally freed from the previous strange posture.

It was too late to adjust her position. Roja's upper body sank and rolled on the ground awkwardly, barely rolling over from the demonic wolf.

Even so, because the distance was too close, there were several claw marks on his back by the demonic wolf.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to have the ability to break free, but that's it!" 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝙧𝙚𝓪𝒅.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The mummy was also surprised to see that Roja had recovered his mobility, but he didn't panic. Instead, he looked at Roja with interest as if he wanted Roja to struggle a few more rounds.

He was not a lion who would do his best to fight a rabbit. On the contrary, although he was extremely eager for blood, he enjoyed the pleasure of playing with his prey in his palm until the prey died in despair.

He stuck out his tongue, licked his chapped lips, and pointed at it. The demonic lion let out a roar and joined the fight.

Struggle! You little human, please me more before you die. This is the only value you can achieve! The desperate blood after struggling was more delicious!

Sweat trickled down Roja's forehead. It was already very difficult to deal with a demonic wolf, and now there was another demonic lion, which made his movement ability even more limited.

The living space was constantly compressed, and within a short while, he was forced to the corner by the two magical beasts.

The two magical beasts' eyes were full of thirsty blood. They bent down and approached the breathless Roja step by step.

Finally, the demonic lion couldn't bear it anymore. It stretched out its claws, opened its big mouth, and pounced on Roja. It seemed that it wanted to bite his head off.

At this time, a bright flame lit up in front of the demonic lion.

The blazing flames startled the mutated demonic lion. The thunderous pouncing changed. It fell awkwardly from midair and did not even maintain its center of gravity. Unexpectedly, it rolled all the way to the feet of Roja.

This flame was released by Roja using the fire-controlling talent.

He was right. Although the magical beast was in a state of mutation and seemed to be controlled by the mummy, it was still a beast after all.

Even if it was manipulated and mutated, it still couldn't change the fear of fire as a beast.

Perhaps in the battle, the demonic lion was not afraid of such flames, but its instinctive reaction engraved in the blood made its movements out of control.

Looking at the mutated demonic lion under his feet, Roja certainly wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity. He raised the giant bear's blade above his head and chopped it hard. Blood splashed everywhere, and the giant lion's head was cut down.

Roja's face was covered with blood, but he didn't dare to neglect it. He raised his blade upward, barely able to resist the attack of the demonic wolf. Then he rolled under the impact and left the narrow path.

Although he still couldn't go out, it was better than being blocked by two magical beasts and attacked.

"Bastard! How dare you kill my magical beasts! You are just a human! How arrogant you are!"

The mummy's ugly face became more distorted, and a ghost howl like a broken wind box came out of his dry throat.

All of a sudden, Roja felt the ground under his feet tremble, and countless stones rolled up, leaving him no place to rest. In midair, he saw the demonic wolf pouncing on him.

"Freezing" talent was in a negative state, it only flashed on Roja's body for a moment and was offset by the flesh strengthening.

However, Roja broke out in a cold sweat. This mummy actually had some kind of skill that could freeze him. If it weren't for the fact that his flesh-strengthening talent still worked, he would have become a target of the demonic wolf!

No, this mummy might be good at attacking by mind-controlling. It was both difficult to control the surrounding environment and cause negative effects on the mind.

If I don't kill this mummy, I'm afraid I'll become the fish on the chopping board and be slaughtered by him after the effect of flesh strengthening is over!

Roja thought to himself. At the same time, he didn't slow down his movement. He waved a series of shadows with the giant bear's blade, making the demonic wolf not dare to approach easily.

The mummy roared again and again, and his voice became more and more anxious. It seemed that he had found the effects of Roja's fresh strengthening.

He couldn't wait any longer!

Roja thought to himself.

The moment the demonic wolf pounced on him, he suddenly took back the giant bear's blade and smashed it into the diabolic wolf's arms like a cannonball. At the moment when the demonic wolf's body was out of balance, he gently scratched its body with the blade.

Poison made by the talent accurately entered the demonic wolf's body through its wound.

In the previous battle, the demonic wolf's energy had already decreased a lot. With a poison, it felt very weak. Immediately, its body became soft and fell diagonally downwards, without even catching the stone on one side.

At this moment, Roja's body was also turned out from under the demonic wolf. According to his calculation, the body of the demonic wolf was facing the mummy, and there was no obstacle in the middle!

Chapter 14

Rage talent activated!

Roja felt a surge of power coursing through his body. With the help of the power, his body seemed to have expanded a circle in a short time.

It was not until then that the mummy finally reacted. He let out a scream and hurriedly wanted to get down from the demonic tiger to find a place to hide.

But this was an opportunity that Roja had worked hard to create. If the mummy ran away, he would be doomed!

"Skill: trail of God!"

Roja let out a roar and kicked hard on the body of the demonic wolf. The tremendous power brought him unparalleled explosive power, making his body shoot at the mummy like a cannonball.

Black and white light were released from the giant bear's blade, turning his body into black and white.

The mummy had no time to hide anymore. In a hurry, he could only control the rocks that had flown into the air to stop Roja from moving forward. At the same time, he forcibly ordered the demonic tiger to raise its body to protect him.

However, the black and white color, which represented the trial, turned into an invincible blade. The rock in front of him was instantly severed, revealing a road. Roja's speed was not affected at all.

Under the control of the mummy, the demonic tiger still wanted to wave its claws to resist the attack, but it was not the magical beast that was good at a high speed. By the high speed Roja, it could not even see Roja clearly.

The blood light cracked! Under the blade light of the trail of God, the black and white light instantly devoured the demonic tiger's body. The bloody blade went through the demonic tiger's chest, and completely turned its heart into dust. And the body of the demonic tiger was also divided into two parts.

However, this was not the end. The giant bear's blade continued to move forward, piercing through the mummies hiding behind the demonic tiger.

"No, you can't kill me. I'm already a corpse, and you can't erase my mind! My mind is the same age as heaven and earth, it's immortal. You are just a human, and in the end, you will only be occupied by my mind!"

The giant bear's blade was inserted into the mummy's chest, but he was still roaring. An illusory smoke slowly leaked out from his facial features and nostrils. It seemed that it was the mind the mummy mentioned.

"I will judge the evil in the name of God, and I will punish the filthy in the name of God!"

Suddenly, a voice came from Roja's mouth. But Roja didn't know why he said that.

He seemed to have entered a mysterious state, like a true God with the power of life and death, standing proudly between heaven and earth and looking down upon everything in the world!

"Trial!"

As soon as he finished speaking, tremendous pressure fell from the sky. The mind of the mummy was crushed before it could even leave its body.

The black and white light seemed to have turned into the God holding a weapon and completely destroyed the remaining evil God.

Roja's legs became weak and he sat on the ground. The black and white light gradually disappeared, and there was only the demonic tiger which was divided into two parts, and the mummy without the mind in front of him. 𝘭𝑖𝒷𝓇𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝘮

He gasped for breath. The trail of God skill had drained all of his strength, and even the rage talent that hadn't yet come to an end was forced to end ahead of time.

He simply stretched out his hands and lay on the ground in a large shape.

The stones that had been manipulated by the mummy had all fallen back to the ground. The demonic wolf had already been poisoned, and now it was smashed by these stones, and there was no sound at all.

In other words, there was nothing in the cave that could threaten Roja anymore.

Roja was also excited to see his brilliant achievement.

He didn't expect that he would really make it. He beat three mutated demonic beasts and a strange mummy alone!

Although it was true that the mummy underestimated the enemy, it was still a great feat!

After killing these three mutated demonic beasts, his level had risen to LV9, not far from LV10!

Excited, Roja turned on the projector and wanted to check how much he had risen in the ranking list.

But when he looked at it, he suddenly found that his name was grey on the ranking list. Although his name had risen, it was still in LV8.

Note: the underground space is blocked by a special force. We can't enter the system at the moment. After leaving the underground space, everything returned to normal."

Roja shrugged his shoulders helplessly as he looked at the screen.

But he didn't plan to leave here right now. After all, he had consumed too much energy and physical strength. There were countless magical beasts in the fog forest. If he went out and met the magical beasts now, he would really become a good meal for them.

And there were so many spoils waiting for him to take!

"Announcement: Roja killed the extremely evil thing in the fog forest and solved the crisis of the magical beast in the fog forest. He will be rewarded with two points for prestige."

Roja didn't notice the sign that had been flashing on his projection until the announcement came.

He opened it and saw an expensive letter in his hand.

"Mr. Roja, thank you for getting rid of the evil things and completing the hidden task. Awakening the hidden profession: judge. All the attributes were increased by 10 points, skill: invisibility (Level 1), current trial value: 10."

"Invisibility: into the state of invisibility in 10 seconds (with the upgrade). Attacking is regarded as triggering the invisibility."

Roja couldn't help but open his mouth widely. It was not because of the prestige, but because of the hidden attributes he had obtained.

Although it was only 10 points, it was a full attribute plus! He even got the skill to be invisible! For him, this skill was a real magic skill!

This skill could perfectly cooperate with his plundering system. In the future, even if there were people around, he could plunder others' talents unhurriedly without being afraid of being discovered.

Moreover, with his speed and this talent, he was completely capable of anything!

Roja couldn't wait to try this skill. He was surprised to find that although there was no explanation for the skill, his five senses had been improved in a secret state.

Moreover, if he didn't take the initiative to break the invisibility skill, he would only need to wait for one minute to make the next invisibility skill.

Chapter 15

Roja took a deep breath, trembling. The surprise was so great that he even felt unreal.

At this moment, the gorgeous personal data in front of him really made him dizzy.

Name: Roja

Grade: LV9 (8600/10000)

Profession: judge

Talent: eyes of God (level B), rage (level C), refinement (level C), poison making (level E), fire-controlling (level F), flesh strengthening (level E), powerful dizziness (level D).

Skill: trail of God (gather all the strength on the sword, and the higher the level is, the stronger the power will be), invisibility (into the invisible state in 10 seconds, and the invisible time will increase with the level).

Body value: blood vitality: 830 (810+20), energy 390, strength 210 (190+20), defense 110, agility 120 (90+30).

Such data had already far exceeded the average LV9 and was even more powerful than Edward of LV10.

It could be said that if there was no miracle that Edward could promote to LV10 or above, then in this Green-Hand Village, he, Roja, was the real uncrowned king!

After closing the personal information panel, Roja suppressed his excitement.

He walked towards the three dead magical beasts. 𝓵𝓲𝓫𝙧𝓮𝙖𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝙢

"System, plunder."

Plundering...

"Congratulations! You have obtained the level-F talent: visual strengthening!"

"Congratulations! You have obtained the level-F talent: olfaction strengthening!"

"Congratulations on you for obtaining level-C talent: simulation!"

Among the talents provided by the three magical beasts, two of them were about the special strengthening of their senses. Although they could not fight directly, they all had a very strong supporting effect.

The only thing that confused Roja was the level-C talent simulation.

"Simulation: the user can completely simulate himself into other life forms. If the user's energy drops to 100, the simulation will be automatically dismissed."

After reading the description of the talent, Roja let out a long sigh.

"No wonder these three magical beasts didn't show anything. It turns out that I have used all my luck to plunder talent!"

Undoubtedly, this simulation talent, as the invisibility talent, was also an important skill for Roja.

Isn't it a great convenience for Roja to hide by completely imitating him into other life forms?

Now he was still the only one on the prestige list. Although Edward had promised that he would not expose his face, as time went by, his face would be exposed sooner or later.

But with the talent of simulation, he could change his appearance and breath at any time. In this way, even Edward might not be able to recognize him.

Simulation talent activated!

Roja thought and his personal information changed.

Name: Wayreth

Grade: LV0 (0/100)

Talent: fire-controlling (level F)

Skill: no

Body value: Blood vitality: 100, energy 50/50, strength 20, defense 10, agility 10.

Roja couldn't help coughing when he saw the pale data on the screen.

The person he was imitating now was the one whose talent of controlling fire was plundered by him at the beginning, and his face had also become the face of the person called the Wayreth.

Although it was a little miserable, it was good. At least his original appearance would not be exposed.

Roja thought to himself. After all, he was only able to simulate another person, and in fact, the level of his ability did not change at all. If there is a fight again, he could instantly display his full strength.

Then he walked towards the mummy again.

"System, plunder."

Plundering...

"Congratulations on you acquiring level-B talent: puppet magic."

"Puppet technique: needs the five senses to be in common or use it with the puppet talisman."

Roja couldn't help but frown when looking at the plundered talent. Although it was a level-B, he didn't know what the five senses in the explanation were.

As for the condition that required the cooperation of the puppet talisman, he looked for the so-called puppet talisman on the mummy over and over again, but could not find it.

Maybe the mummy had used it on the three mutated demonic beasts.

Alas, it seemed that if he wanted to use this talent, he had to find out what the five senses meant.

Roja felt a little regretful. Although he had finally obtained the level-B talent, he still had some restrictions on the use of it. Fortunately, he had already obtained two kinds of magical skills. As for the five senses in common, he decided to keep them for future exploration.

After piling up the four corpses, Roja walked towards a large area of strange flowers and herbs growing in the depths of the cave.

Fortunately, they were near the exit when they fought just now, so they didn't destroy these strange plants. Otherwise, no matter how wonderful these plants were, they wouldn't have anything to do with him.

"Tylophora secamonoides Tsiang: it is said that it grows by soaking the snake's blood. Taking it can increase its toxicity by 100%."

Roja stretched out his hand and pulled the herb up. With his talent of refinement activated, the herb became crystal clear.

As soon as he raised his hand, he threw the herb into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

"After taking the Tylophora secamonoides Tsiang, defense +10, anti-poison increased by 100%."

Roja felt refreshed and continued to scan with the eyes of God.

"The black rhododendron fruit is highly toxic. After taking it, the whole body will fester and turn into thick water."

Roja's scalp tingled. He threw the poisonous fruit into his bag in a hurry. Although it was poisonous, it might have other uses in the future.

In this way, Roja strode forward. After he refined all the herbs and fruits that could be eaten directly, he threw them into his stomach, while those with severe poison or with negative effects were thrown into his backpack.

"After eating the dragon bone grass. Your muscles have been strengthened and you get 3 points of strength."

"After eating the Quenti fruit, your muscles are strengthened and you get 3 points of agility."

"After eating the blue veins flower. Your spirit will be strengthened and you will get 4 points of energy."

After more than two hours, Roja finally finished dealing with this large area of herbs.

He just felt refreshed and wanted to laugh out loud. Although this trip was very dangerous, he definitely gained a lot.

At this moment, a hint flashed through his projection.

"Hint: since the evil thing was killed, the restriction on the underground space gradually disappeared. The channel Green-Hand Village will be restored in ten seconds."

Looking at the hint, Roja couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He wasn't sure whether the simulation could deceive the ranking list or not. He didn't want to attract too much attention.

Chapter 16

As the Green-Hand Village channel was connected, Roja was finally able to enter the ranking list.

After checking, he was surprised to find that the simulation skill could completely avoid the detection of this world. His name was still on the ranking list, but his level was still LV8.

It seemed that as long as he didn't take the initiative to unravel the simulation skill, his name would still exist as LV8.

What surprised him was Edward.

He had been hiding in this forest for three days. In the past three days, Edward had reached LV11, and seven or eight of the second-tier had reached LV10 too. It must be someone who fighting with Edward.

The chatting channel was still very active, but most of the messages were not useful. Not everyone was focused on upgrades.

When their levels gradually stabilized, many people who were satisfied with the current situation chose to stay in Green-Hand Village and live a carefree daily life.

Anyway, the experience of hunting the magical beasts could make up for all kinds of energy required by the human body. They could completely survive by killing the magical beasts in Green-Hand Village, which were much weaker than them.

"Notice: the multi-dimensional space trading channel is about to open. Any item can be traded in the trading channel."

The sudden announcement made the chatting channel silent for a second, and then a more heated discussion followed. 𝘭𝒾𝑏𝑟𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Oh my God! There is still a trading channel. Well, I've picked up a few spiritual fruits. I don't know if they are poisonous or not. I can change good equipment for myself!"

"Come on, do you want to exchange good equipment with these fruits? Just take a look at mine. It's a magical beast of LV5 with the skin of the sword-toothed tiger!"

"Buy, buy! Who has a first-grade defensive item? I'm willing to pay 500 gold coins!"

"Look, look, it's 100 gold coins for a spiritual fruit! It's affordable!"

"Why is there someone that sells the same item as me? Stay away from me. Don't rob my business!"

The chat channel was in a mess, but Roja didn't look at it at all. Instead, he focused on the trading channel.

Good and bad mixed together here. Most people didn't know the value and quality of the goods they were selling. They just put the useless things on the table.

Those items could be seen as good at a glance. Only fools would sell them if they were not really useless.

After all, not everyone has the eyes of God talent as Roja, which was able to easily distinguish the effect of items and herbs.

"Wayreth put a new product on the shelf."

This was an unremarkable message, hidden in a lot of messages, and was quickly updated.

But in the next second, countless people tried their best to read the messages, looking for the product released by Wayreth just now.

"Eighty forest demonic wolf's teeth of LV6, three mutated demonic beast's skins of LV10, sixty mutated demonic beast's teeth of LV10, and... mutated demonic tiger's gallbladder of LV10!"

Everyone said in a trembling voice.

It was definitely a heavy bomb. The Green-Hand Village, whose average level was only LV6, had never heard of it, let alone seen it!

fuck?

"Fuck! Who the hell is this Wayreth? Why does he have so many good things?"

"Is it the seller of the system? Otherwise, how could he get these things? Even Edward can't take out so many things at one time, right?"

"Cheating! This must be cheating! It was rigged shamefully!"

"Who is this Wayreth? There is no his name on the ranking list! We can't even find out his level! What the hell is going on? Where did he come from?"

"How do I remember that he died in the beginning? At that time, I clearly remember that he seemed to be bitten to death by a magical beast?"

"Excuse me, buddy. How are these things sold? Are they just for show or not?"

"Idiot! This is a trading system. If you don't really have something, how can you trade?"

Roja didn't even look at the messages on the chatting channel. Instead, he leisurely put the poisonous herbs in his bag on the shelf and even considerately marked them.

"The effect of the spiritual fruits and herbs can be checked after they are purchased. In addition, these can be evaluated."

This sentence aroused another uproar in the eyes of everyone.

"What? How did he know the effects of these things? I'm a biologist. Even I can't understand them!"

"He can check the function of the spiritual fruits. Has he been transferred to be an examiner?"

"Don't you understand? The examiner is rare to find. They are different from the jobs we can choose freely. They need talent and opportunities!"

Everyone was talking about it, but Wayreth, also called Roja, was enjoying his chat.

Just as he had expected, the person who really wanted to buy and the person who had the ability to buy would not speak on the public chat channel.

At this moment, Edward's profile picture was on the screen.

"Buddy, are you Roja? Don't worry. I didn't mean to reveal your identity. Although I'm curious about how you hid your identity, I won't ask. It's your secret."

Roja whistled happily. Although he didn't like Edward's remarks on the savior, he had to admit that this well-educated gentleman was very rational. This made him have a better impression of Edward.

"All the items on sale need to be exchanged with corpses of the magical beasts of LV3 or above, and the identification price is the same. Or you can also exchange with the first-grade items. I don't think this price is expensive, right?"

Edward looked at Roja's offer and nodded.

"Indeed, it's not expensive. Now only you can hunt the magical beast, which is priceless and has no market. We need these things to refine weapons. This price is really acceptable."

"Wait, did you say that you were going to use these things to refine weapons? Has someone in your team awakened the craftsman profession? Isn't this non-combat profession only obtained through tasks?"

"Ha-ha, it's just a fluke. Ellena triggered a hidden task. With her current ability, it's completely possible for her to create a level-one item. Even if it's a level-two item, it's still possible."

Roja took a look at the prestige list. Sure enough, Ellena's name was added under his name.

The ranking showed that she got 1 prestige point because she had awakened a special profession.

Chapter 17

"Edward, how about we make a deal? I will give you an extra herb for the materials you like at the same price, and you have the right of priority to buy it at any time."

Roja thought for a while and decided to call him.

"Well, the conditions are good. Then, what do you want to exchange from me? With your ability, I'm afraid there is nothing that you can't get, right?"

Edward was absent-minded. A herb was nothing to him, but the key was the right of priority.

Roja was Wayreth, and he was in the fog forest now, and only he knew about it. It could be imagined that there would be a steady supply of materials in the future.

Edward had the right of priority to purchase these materials, which meant that he had the priority to own these materials. Faced with such temptation, Edward, who built a team with the goal of saving the whole human race, couldn't be uninterested?

"The conditions are very simple. Ask Elena to make a few first-grade items for me and I'll buy them all at the original price. What do you think? Besides, I can also hunt the magical beasts you need first in the fog forest."

Roja whistled. Noticing that Edward was hesitant, he offered such a condition generously. Anyway, he was going to hunt the magical beasts. It seemed that it was a piece of cake for him to do something good for Edward.

Edward admitted that he was interested. He couldn't refuse Roja's offer, so he agreed immediately.

"Okay, no problem. That's a good condition. I'll take the three beast's skins of the mutated magical beasts, the tiger gallbladder of the mutated demonic tiger, and forty mutated demonic beast's teeth!"

Roja's mouth twitched when he read Edward's message.

What a big client! Perhaps only Edward could take out so many corpses of magical beasts in Green-Hand Village. 𝓵𝙞𝒃𝓻𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Even if his other goods couldn't be sold for a while, the corpses of magical beasts paid by Edward were enough for him to plunder a lot of talents.

"What kind of item do you want to refine? You'd better have specific requirements."

Roja said to Edward after thinking for a while.

"A set of armor and shoes made of magical beast's skin of LV8. Don't worry. You don't need to take them out of the three beast skins I gave you. I will give you the materials later."

Edward agreed without hesitation. He had planned to refine for Roja from the three pieces of beast's skins that Roja had sold to him. But now when he heard that Roja had said that he would prepare the materials by himself, he felt that he had saved another sum of money!

After closing the chat interface with Edward, Roja whistled and began to deal with other orders.

To his surprise, there were still a lot of goods that he could buy. In a short time, all the eighty wolf's teeth had been sold out.

And there were four more corpses of magical beasts that appeared in his trading channel system.

Plus the six corpses he had obtained from the deal with Edward, there were now ten corpses of magical beasts in front of Roja!

"System, extract!"

Roja's palm swept across the ten corpses of magical beasts one by one. In an instant, ten talents had been obtained.

Among the ten talents, seven of them had no effect. They only gave Roja some additional attributes, and only three of them were capable to surprise Roja.

First of all, it was called visual strengthening. This talent was originally owned by Roja. With the fusion of the two same talents, a new level-D talent, visual mutation, was evolved.

Now Roja could easily see a thousand meters away. If he focused his eyesight, the distance could even reach two thousand meters!

The second was the level-F talent named water-controlling, which was similar to the fire-controlling skill he had mastered before. It was also an element of controlling skill. Although the level was not high, it was very practical.

The last one was the level-E talent, precision. Although it was only level E, the effect of this talent was unpredictable to Roja.

"Precision: automatic adjustment. The target of the bullet released by the user must be designated in advance when using it."

This was a very ambiguous explanation, and the specific effect would be known after actual use.

Now that his talent had been extracted, Roja began to deal with the magical beasts' corpses. The hair, teeth, bones, and other parts were all hung on the trading channel.

Of course, he didn't expect these things to be exchanged for the magical beast's corpse, he marked it at a normal price.

As for the meat of the magical beasts, Roja used his fire-controlling talent to raise a bonfire. Not long after, the small cave was filled with the fragrance of meat.

Although there was no condiment, the smell of meat still made Roja have a good appetite. He grabbed one of the beast's legs and his mouth was full of oil.

"Take the cooked food: +50 points of blood vitality and +50 points of energy."

"Note: when your blood vitality and energy are fully recovered, they will no longer grow."

With a click, the roast meat in Roja's hand fell to the ground.

Although it had been a long time since he killed magical beasts and the mummy, his blood vitality and energy did not fully recover. He had planned to find some magical beasts to kill and recover.

But he didn't expect that behavior to satisfy his appetite would help him recover so much blood vitality and energy! He only ate two or three bites!

Although killing one magical beast would get more replies than this, don't forget that killing one magical beast would also take a lot of energy and blood vitality. Eating two or three pieces of roasted meat was just a move of the mouth!

"Notice: Wayreth found that meat could recover energy and blood vitality, he will be rewarded one point of prestige."

"Only those who take cooked food for the first time and find this rule can obtain prestige point. If they take cooked food later, they will no longer obtain prestige point."

As soon as the announcement was made, a new name appeared on the prestige list, which was Wayreth.

Of course, the owner of this name had died a long time ago. When Roja canceled the simulation, the achievements of Wayreth would be added to the name of Roja.

This announcement made countless people excited. Those who didn't want to take risks finally found the source of a stable life, and those who tried their best to advance saw the hope of quick replenishment.

If he could carry a few pounds of cooked food with him when he was hunting the beasts, then he could eat a few bites when his state fell. Wouldn't it be the eternal motion to hunt the beasts?

It was much more efficient than killing a high-level demonic lion and looking for a low-level magical beast to kill!

"Oh my God! What else can't he do?"

Chapter 18

This sentence echoed in the hearts of many people at the same time.

In their opinion, although Wayreth was not on the ranking list, and his reputation was the lowest among the three people on the list, now the Wayreth was undoubtedly equal to an omnipotent in their hearts. 𝓁𝘪𝒷𝘳ℯ𝘢𝑑.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Bro, bro, how much is the roast meat? Give me 50 pounds first!"

"50 pounds? Why don't you feed yourself to death? You have bought so much roast meat. Can you keep it all the time? Look at me, I don't want more. I just want five pounds!"

"Well, Wayreth, I like you very much. Can you kill the magical beasts with me? I will be obedient!"

"No, if he wants to roast meat, he needs fire! But now, no one can make a fire! How did he do it?"

"Talent, this is talent! He is definitely above the level C, a talent related to fire!"

"Bullshit! If he was only level C, how could he kill so many mutated magical beasts? In my opinion, it should at least be level B!"

Speechless, Roja picked up another piece of roasted meat and looked at the chatting channel while eating. He didn't expect that he could find a rule in the world just to satisfy his appetite.

Now that he had ten pieces of the magical beast's meat in front of him, making a fire, he decided to make all of them into roast meat, leaving some in his backpack to store, and the rest hundreds of pounds in the trading channel.

"A trading message from Wayreth: an herb can be exchanged for five pounds of roast meat."

"Hallelujah! What a good brother! I was worried that the magical beast corpses would be exchanged again. I was so scared!"

"An herb can exchange for five pounds of roast meat! That's great! I happened to find an herb. I don't know what it is used for! Ha-ha! Roast meat, I'm here!"

"You dare to exchange anything you don't know. Aren't you afraid that he won't exchange with you when he sees that is poisoned?"

"Damn it! Why can't I eat an apple? Apple is also food!"

"You actually have an apple? Where did you get it? Tell me the truth!"

Roja was stunned. He had thought that it would be difficult to find a herb, but he didn't expect that the hundreds of pounds of roast meat he had put on the trading platform would be sold out in a few minutes, and there were a lot of herbs in his bag that he didn't know the effect.

Edward had sold more than ten herbs here. He wondered where he got them.

He simply waved his hand and put another hundred pounds of roast meat in it. Then he no longer paid attention to the chat channel and turned to studying these herbs' effects.

With the help of the eyes of God's talent, these herbs provided Roja with dozens of additional attributes.

Apart from some of the poisonous herbs that were hung in the trading channel by Roja, there were a few particularly poisonous herbs that were taken out separately.

Poison-making talent activated. Roja threw all these medicinal herbs into the flames.

As the rising flames burned, the herbs instantly turned into ashes, but the poison within them turned into the juice of different colors. Under the control of the poison-making talent, they slowly merged together.

A faint fragrance spread out, and the liquid turned into solferino, changing its shape in the flames, looking extremely beautiful.

Roja sniffed and sneezed.

At the same time, he was also secretly shocked. Just this faint fragrance contained a strong poison. According to Roja's conjecture, if a magical beast under LV6 smelled it, it would at least lose the ability to move and become a puppet of others.

However, the magical beast, which was below LV5, could not survive at all.

As for humans, if they hadn't reached LV9 or had the antidote, they would have no chance of survival.

He felt lucky that he didn't try to refine a fierce poison with the talent of poison making, and he took the Tylophora secamonoides Tsiang as well. Otherwise, he would be the first person to be poisoned to death now.

And he was poisoned to death by the poison he refined!

Carefully putting the liquid into the container and carefully sealing it, Roja breathed a long sigh of relief.

He didn't plan to use the poison easily, because it was too violent and difficult to control.

"Hello, I'm Lelly."

A message popped up on Roja's dialog box. It was a simple self-introduction.

This name made Roja feel a little familiar. He thought about it carefully and opened the ranking list again. As expected, this person was ranked fifth.

"Help me identify a few herbs. Don't worry about the exchange fee."

Lelly said stiffly. It seemed that he was not good at talking to people.

"OK."

Roja typed a word. Although he didn't like the tone of Lelly, he wouldn't let go of the business.

The profile picture flashed for a while, and then a dozen medicinal herbs appeared in front of Roja.

Looking at the various kinds of herbs and fruits, even Roja couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Although the quantity was far from the patch of herbs he had seen before, it was much higher in quality than his own.

The light shining on any of them was enough to make people absent-minded and dizzy. Even without the help of the eyes of God, it could be seen that these herbs were extraordinary.

"What do you think?"

Roja swallowed and replied quickly.

"Okay, wait a moment. These herbs are of high quality. I need some time."

Roja clicked his tongue and quickly sent these herbs' value to Lelly.

The more Roja identified the medicinal herbs and fruits with the eyes of God, the more shocked he became. Although the shapes of these herbs and fruits were different, their effects were mostly about healing, and the effects were more and more abnormal.

It was no exaggeration to say that with the help of these herbs, they could basically take people back into the hands of the God of death.

But what Roja was curious about was that only one herb was enough to save a person. But Lelly had collected so many herbs, not for sale. What was he going to do?

Half an hour later, Roja finished the identification of all the herbs, and Lelly remained silent, waiting for Roja to finish describing the function of the last herb.

Chapter 19

"There was no?"

Lelly sighed as if he was talking to himself, but then he didn't say anything more. He just said coldly.

"Thank you for your identification. I may come to you later. I have paid you."

Then, Lelly's profile picture turned gray, which meant he left the trading channel.

Strange man... I don't know why he wants so many herbs, and he said there were "no". Aren't these herbs enough to help him?'

Roja shrugged his shoulders and gave Lelly such a definition. Then he forgot about it. He was not a nosy person. Lelly was just an ordinary customer to him.

"Emergency announcement: challenge gambling begins in number 1002546 Green-Hand Village. Forcibly connect the number 1002548 Green-Hand Village."

"Ten days later, each side will select the three strongest warriors to fight. Two wins in three games. The loser will transfer 20% of the materials to the winner unconditionally, and everyone's attributes will decrease by 20 points."

The mysterious voice fell from the sky again, but this time it did not bring any positive news but brought an unexpected challenge to everyone.

Everyone's mouth was wide open. They listened to the mysterious voice dully and repeated the emergency notice again.

It was not a joke! The stake was 20% of the resources of Green-Hand Village! And each of them had 20 points!

In this world of killing, resources and properties were absolutely the most important.

Moreover, it was only Green-Hand Village here. If they could obtain resources and properties here, they would fall behind other Green-Hand Villages. Wouldn't they be attacked all the time in the future?

"Announcement: there is no need to rank the three fighters according to their ranks. The three winners will be rewarded with a treasure box of D level, and the winner will be rewarded with two treasure boxes of D level."

"Hint: the two Green-Hand Village chat channels are in parallel..."

Roja quickly entered the chatting channel. As expected, next to the original 1002548 Green-Hand Village chatting channel, there was another 1002546 Green-Hand Village chatting channel.

"Waah... Waah... I don't want to die! If my attributes are weakened by 20 points, I can't even beat the average magical beast!"

"After cutting down the resources by 20%, where can we go to kill the magical beasts? I don't want to starve to death!"

"Damn it! What the hell are those guys doing? Can't they just focus on an upgrade? We are all human beings. Why do we have to fight to the death?"

"Yes, we are all compatriots. How could someone really want to push others to death?"

"By the way, didn't that voice say that we would select three strongest warriors in ten days? We have an LV11 man, and two LV10 men are about to reach the LV11!"

"That's right. If we really want to fight, we may not lose. We still have Edward in charge!"

"Edward, we must win! Beat back those wild monkeys who dared to provoke us! Let them know the consequences of invading others' living space!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me. How about we give full support to Edward and the other two upgrades in these ten days? At that time, we will give those wild monkeys a head-on blow!"

"Yes! Yes!"

"Oh, by the way, can't we enter the chat channel of No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village? Has anyone entered it? What's the highest level of their chat channel?"

It was not until then that they realized that they were still connected to another Green-Hand Village chat channel.

Just now, everyone was discussing heatedly, and for a time, no one thought of coming and looking over there. At this time, the reminded crowd immediately rushed into No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village.

"Hello, everyone. Today we are here to announce something. The initiator of challenging gambler to No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village was me, Mundo!"

As soon as they entered, they saw a message flashing across the chat channel.

"What are you doing? Everyone is living a good life, and the upgrade is also very stable. Why do you start such a battle? What if we lose?"

"Right, that's the 20% of the resources and 20 points. Without these resources, will we kill you as the magical beast?"

"Without the property, how should we fight? Do you know how much we risked our lives to earn back the property of 20 days?"

The messages in the chat channel were rolling quickly. Although a small number of people supported Mundo, most of them were protesting against him.

"Be quiet! We won't lose! I'm Mundo! I'm an aristocrat with the bloodline of the werewolf! I did all this for you! For the sake of our Green-Hand Village gaining a greater advantage!"

1002548lv11lv12Blv11

"I've already seen it. The highest level of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village is Edward, and he is only LV11! And I'm already LV12! And with the bloodline of the werewolf, I've already awakened my level-B talent! I can fight against and kill the magical beasts of LV12 alone!"

As Mundo spoke, he made his personal information public. The onlookers at the two big Green-Hand Village took a deep breath.

LV12(11000/12000)!

This was Mundo's current level. He was totally one grade ahead of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, and he was only 1000 experience points away from reaching LV13!

"Do you understand? My friends, this is a war that can't be lost! And the one who will lead you to the victory will be me, Mundo! Surrender! From now on, I am your leader!"

Mundo announced arrogantly.

There were more and more people supporting him this time because they saw the hope of victory and the glorious future led by Mundo.

"Mundo, I support you! Lead us to defeat them! This is the world of killing! The stronger one is the most respected and the strength is the most important!"

"Yes, because of their weakness, they are destined to be defeated by us! We, No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village, will step on them and stand at a higher starting point!"

"Werewolf Mundo!"

"People at No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, are you looking at us? See? This is our strength! If you are sensible, surrender as soon as possible. Maybe Mr. Mundo will be merciful and give you a little bit of residue!"

The chat channel of No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village was full of joy, while the atmosphere of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village was unusually heavy.

Chapter 20

"Oh my God! That's LV12! I saw that he also released the personal information of the other two competitors, whose grades are also LV12!"

"There are only ten days left. No matter how powerful Edward is, he can't make it to the LV13, right?"

"Edward is the most gifted man in us. He can't even compete with him. Then who else can?"

"No, I'm going to improve my level now. Even if I can't participate as the warrior in the end, I'll fight them to the death!"

"Listen to me, everyone! Listen to me. Now is the most difficult time for us. We can't be in a panic! Edward, Orik, and Jax are the three strongest people now. How about we help them hunt the magical beasts to upgrade?"

"I'm on your side! Let's work together to improve the speed of hunting the magical beasts. This is related to the survival of our Green-Hand Village!"

"I agree with you. It's much faster than upgrading by oneself. I'd rather have ten days without any experience than let Edward make it to the LV13!"

"What do you think? Do you think we have a chance of winning?"

In the room, Jax looked at Edward with a gloomy face.

"To be honest, I'm not sure. Although I'm also level-B talent, I'm not sure until now that I can defeat the magical beasts of LV11 on my own. Besides, my level is far from LV12."

Edward forced a smile at him. Although he looked serious, he was not depressed.

"But we have to have a try. We can't give the whole 20% of the resources of Green-Hand Village to others for the sake of my current level. Look, there are so many people supporting us."

A smile appeared on his gloomy face. He patted Edward on the shoulder and said.

"I know you won't give up. I'll talk to Orik. I think he will cooperate with us these days even if he didn't want to."

After sending him away, Edward sat on the chair and gently pressed his temples.

He had already asked someone to gather the battalion. In ten minutes, they would set out to hunt the magical beasts to upgrade.

The people in the chat channel had formed a group spontaneously. It could be said that Edward and the other two people just needed to wait to kill the magical beasts and upgrade.

After thinking for a while, he opened the chatting channel and saw a message from his dim profile of Wayreth.

"Roja, you must have heard the announcement just now. You don't want to be the human savior, but this time it's related to your personal interests. If possible, I hope you can come here as one of the fighters."

After this sentence was sent, it was not shown that it had been read, and the dim profile photo of Wayreth had not been lit up, as if this person had disappeared from the world.

Edward didn't leave until Ellena entered the room and called him. He closed the chat channel, took a deep breath, and went out with Ellena.

Roja didn't see Edward's message at all. After reading Mundo's impassioned speech at No. 10002546 Green-Hand Village, he quickly closed the chat channel and plunged into the fog forest.

He indeed didn't want to be the savior of the human race, but this time, the opponent was really going to encroach on his interests. He couldn't allow such a thing to happen!

His opponent had also awakened the level-B talent, and even had the blood of the werewolf. Roja didn't believe that with Edward's current ability, he could win the magical beasts of LV11 alone.

Since he couldn't do it, he had to do it by himself! Before the day of the duel came, he had to make full use of every minute and second to upgrade, so that he could guard his own resources and properties!

In the fog forest, the giant demonic mammoth was leisurely eating the leaves. It was an LV10 magical beast. Because of its giant body and outstanding defensive power, no magical beasts dared to lay a finger on it.

However, just as it put leaves into its mouth, its little bloody red eyes suddenly widened.

A sharp sword light cut his nose from top to bottom, leaving a small wound.

Although it was only a little bit, it felt like a poison that was enough to make its whole body painful flowed into its body.

It turned its body angrily and waved its sharp ivory, trying to find out who was so bold to provoke it.

However, the giant body turned around, but it still couldn't find the shadow of the fellow that had ambushed it!

On the contrary, when the demonic mammoth was clumsily moving around, its blood vitality, and energy were constantly lost. In an instant, it felt severe pain all over its body, and the shadow of the ghost made more than a dozen wounds on its body.

Although each of them could only cut its skin, the annoying poison made the demonic mammoth's consciousness more and more blurred. In the end, the four badly injured legs could no longer support its heavy body and fell to the ground with a loud sound.

At this moment, it finally saw the shadow clearly. That was standing in front of it, raising its saber and waving it fiercely.

"System, plunder!"

Roja said coldly.

Plundering...

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-D talent: iron wall defense."

"Iron wall defense: increase your defense by three times in an instant. Cooldown time: 10 seconds."

Roja nodded. It seemed that looking for a high-level magical beast as the hunting object could really get better talent.

The corpse of the giant demonic mammoth was directly thrown into the backpack of the system. Now he needed to hurry up to upgrade, so he had no time to deal with such a large corpse of the magical beast. He could only wait until he had time.

He raised his eyes and looked around. With the help of the visual mutation, he easily found his next target. With a move of his body, he turned into a bolt of lightning and shot into the fog forest.

In just two days, Roja seemed to be tireless in hunting the magical beasts. Even at night, it couldn't stop him who had the talent of visual mutation.

A bloody road was left behind where he had walked, which made many magical beasts tremble with fear, and they were even careful when going out to look for food.

But now, Roja's real level had reached LV10, which was only one step away from LV11. Because of his simulation skill, his real level was not shown on the ranking list.

Chapter 21

"Edward, come here! We have controlled an LV11 magical beast! We are trying our best to lure it to your side!"

"Fuck! This magical beast is so powerful! Even 20 of us are LV9 can't resist it!"

"Hold on, hold on! The second squad is coming soon! Support is right behind us. Don't relax! Try your best to bring the magical beast to Edward!"

"Don't worry! Take your time. We are attacking the magical beast of LV13! We still need some time!"

"No problem. We can support it! Just focus on your work. Team one and team two are both holding back the magical beast!"

"Edward, we have found a relic here. We need to explore it in groups, and it is likely that a level-D treasure box will burst out. Now the three teams have entered, and the location is on the plain in the southeast of Green-Hand Village!"

"Team four, I saw two magical beasts of LV11 heading to your side just now. Please be careful. We will arrive soon!"

The Green-Hand Village channel was always refreshing, but all the people above LV9 spontaneously formed a team to help Edward hunt the magical beasts.

Although those who didn't reach LV9 couldn't help much, they spontaneously formed a logistics team, using all kinds of methods to make a fire to cook food, and provide it to the team members hunting the magical beasts.

In the past three days, Edward's grade improved like a rocket, and there were only 3000 experience points for him to reach LV13.

As for No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village, there was no such atmosphere as No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village.

Mundo was fighting alone there, while the rest of the people were watching on the channel. Although they cheered, no one was willing to give up their time to help Mundo kill the magical beasts.

Perhaps for the people of No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village, this battle was only about Mundo and his partners. It had nothing to do with them.

It was okay for them to cheer, but it was impossible for them to really do something to help.

However, the werewolf Mundo and his two companions were indeed strong. Even if they fought alone, their level didn't fall at all.

Mundo's grade was the highest. At this time, he had reached LV13 (13000/15000), and his two companions were also at LV12.

However, although the gap between them was still there, it was not so obvious. With the help of all people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, Edward, and the others were also getting higher and higher.

But now, only three days had passed. As time went by, no matter how strong Mundo and the other two were, there was still a limit. In the end, they would definitely be caught up by Edward and the others.

The joyful atmosphere spread among the crowd. Everyone became more and more energetic. Under the guidance of the dawn of victory, although they were tired every day, it was worth it.

But there was also something that everyone haven't expected.

Although Edward, Orik, and Jax had improved their grade very fast, there was still one who had also quietly raised his grade to LV12.

Lelly, the man who had occupied the fifth place in the ranking list for a long time, had an unexpected encounter. Within three days, his level rose rapidly, and he even awakened a special profession, thunder manipulator.

There were even rumors that when Lelly was hunting the magical beasts alone, according to the witness's description, under the attack of Lelly, the magical beast didn't even have much chance to fight back.

Edward and others had also sent someone to invite Lelly, hoping he could join their team. If they worked together to kill the magical beasts, their level would be promoted to a higher level, but Lelly refused.

"I'm sorry. I don't like to do it with others. I have my own things to do, so I can't kill the magical beasts with you. But don't worry. If there is any need, I won't refuse."

This tough man was so determined to refuse, leaving no chance for others to persuade him at all. 𝓵𝒊𝓫𝙧𝙚𝒂𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝒎

However, the three people who had been placed high hopes on didn't have any antipathy to Lelly's attitude. Everyone had a secret that they couldn't tell, and they didn't want to ask about it.

After all, this was a big deal that related to the resources and personal properties of the whole Green-Hand Village. The final winner would be decided by strength.

If Lelly was really stronger than them, they didn't mind giving up the position of the fighters.

Edward has invited Roja again after he asked Roja to join them last time without any result. However, Roja's reply made Edward feel both funny and annoying.

"I don't want to join you not only because I don't want to act with others, but also because I'm afraid that it will hurt your self-esteem if I act with you. In order to maintain your fighting spirit, I'd better not follow you to frustrate your self-confidence."

Roja said.

At this moment, Roja was eating roasted meat in the fog forest.

In the past three days, he had been hunting the magical beasts all the time, even with the supplement of cooked food. At this moment, his experience had almost reached its limit, so he had to stop and have a rest.

Visual mutation talent gave him a unique advantage. He could still kill the magical beasts at night. That's why he didn't lag behind Edward and others in speed.

"Have they already been upgraded to LV12? Their speed is not bad, but they still can't catch up with Mundo. That guy's werewolf bloodline is definitely not that simple."

Roja looked at Mundo in No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village showing off his achievements, he said to himself.

"Although there are only three of them, it's definitely not that easy to catch up with them. Even if they can catch up with their level, can it really decide everything?"

His current data was far better than that of his counterparts. For the experience point released by Mundo, he didn't think it could be used as a standard for strength assessment.

After all, Mundo only announced his level and experience point. There was no clear information about his talent and data.

After swallowing the last bite of the roast meat, Roja carefully trampled out the flames that had just risen from the roast meat and covered it with a layer of soil.

The deeper he went into the forest, the higher the level of the magical beasts were, and the smarter they were. Because of his crazy killing in the past few days, these magical beasts were somewhat sensitive.

Once they found any trace that didn't belong to the magical beasts, they would quickly escape. And those not afraid of it were the magical beasts that Roja couldn't deal with at all.

Therefore, in order to increase the efficiency of the upgrade, Roja couldn't leave any clues.

Chapter 22

Roja nimbly climbed up the tree and jumped on it. He moved a few hundred meters to the periphery of the fog forest. At this position, even if there was a sneak attack from the magical beast, it could not cause him fatal injury.

Roja carefully stuck himself between the branches and closed his eyes. Soon he fell asleep.

In his dream, he seemed to be in a mysterious garden, surrounded by the fragrance of countless flowers, like countless invisible hands caressing his face, or like the voice of a woman, whispering in his ears.

He just felt itchy and comfortable, which made him groan involuntarily.

The sweet fragrance surrounded his nose as if it was the best smell in the world, which made him want to smell more.

Roja suddenly opened his eyes. Although he felt very comfortable in this dream, he woke up by his own will.

No, this fragrance couldn't be so simple. When he came to this position, he didn't smell such a strong fragrance, but now in his dream, there was a real fragrance.

Such an abnormal thing must be a trap. In this fog forest, there were many magic skills to lure their prey with their fragrance.

When Roja woke up, he found that his body had moved down a few meters along the tree and was about to reach the ground. But the strange fragrance disappeared at this moment.

Was it really just an illusion? Such authentic, even in his dream, he could smell it actually. Could the magical beast create bait in other people's dreams?

Roja's clothes were soaked in a cold sweat. He leaned against a tree trunk and didn't dare to move. He listened carefully to the surroundings as if he had been frozen.

However, the expected attack did not appear, and there was even no trace of a magical beast around. Only unknown insects were quietly chirping.

In the last one hour, Roja kept this strange posture. He was almost numb, but the owner of the fragrance still didn't show up.

Roja frowned. He couldn't wait any longer.

He turned over hard and went back to the tree trunk again. This time, Roja simply moved two thousand meters to the periphery of the fog forest.

This was the edge of the fog forest. Even if the magical beast wanted to eat him again, it would not run to this edge, would it?

He found a hole in the tree, stuffed his body in, and cut some vines to seal the entrance of the hole.

In this way, even if the magical beasts wanted to attack him, they would be blocked by the refined vine. As long as there was any sound, he would be able to perceive it.

After sealed, Roja took out the roasted meat from his backpack and took a few bites. He felt sleepy and tired. After a long yawn, with a comfortable posture, Roja fell asleep again.

In his dream, the fragrance appeared again, but this time it came aggressively. The strong fragrance wrapped Roja, making his body involuntarily jump up.

His pores seemed to open all over his body, and the fragrance he was cheered up by the arrival of this fragrance.

Oh! This was such a wonderful feeling! Even if he were to ascend to heaven now, he might not be as relaxed as the fragrance now!

Roja praised in his dream. Of course, he didn't know that it was a dream. He subconsciously thought that he had arrived at heaven.

He ran in a garden, breathing the sweet fragrance as much as he could, rolling in the flowers wantonly, making his body stick to the fragrance of petals.

What challenging gambler? Hunting the magical beasts? Upgrade? It didn't matter at all! As long as I have this fragrance, it's enough. Sink here. Even if it's just a dream, it's also the best dream in the world!

Roja shouted. The blue sky seemed to be responding to his words. The changeable clouds took on all kinds of wonderful shapes.

All of a sudden, Roja felt a great sense of threat. He looked around in confusion, only to find that there was nothing that could threaten him. He was still in that large patch of flowers and did not move.

But the feeling of danger was getting closer and closer. Roja felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows as if something was right in front of him.

Dream? Was it a dream?

Roja finally realized. He waved his arms and legs, trying to disperse the monster in his dream.

However, no matter how hard he struggled, the sense of threat always lingered around his body, like an invisible giant hand, pinching his body and squeezing inward hard, breaking his bones.

"No!"

Roja roared. The sea of flowers beneath his feet began to boil. The sweet fragrance, like a fire, burned his heart and lung.

The blue sky had turned gray as if countless pairs of eyes had grown out of the sky and cast a silent threat to him.

Twisted clouds fell from the sky and twined around his limbs. They were ethereal, but he couldn't break free.

A sharp pain came from his body. Roja couldn't help letting out a painful groan. He lowered his head and saw a beautiful flower blossoming on his shoulder!

It was a beautiful rose, but it was shining with the color of blood!

The sharp pain spread all over his body along with the place where the rose bloomed as if the rose's thorns were flowing along his blood vessels, trying to suck out all the blood in his body.

The world began to collapse. The sky, the white clouds, or the beautiful flowers before, they were like a broken mirror, and all the images were fading away.

He finally woke up from his dream. It was dark around him, but with his talent, Roja could clearly see the scene in front of him.

This was no longer the edge of the fog forest he had stayed before, but a darker forest!

In front of him was a fat magical beast, with a huge mouth, like a toad. Its purplish-red eyes were fixed on his body, and a long tongue was stuck into his shoulder.

Chapter 23

Seeing Roja open his eyes, the toad's fat eyes lit up with excitement. It seemed to enjoy this feeling very much. From its big mouth, it made strange sounds as if it was laughing.

Roja saw that his condition was rapidly falling. Although the toad's poison did not affect him because of his anti-poison, his blood vitality was still a sharp decrease.

At this moment, it had fallen by almost half, and his energy had also lost about 100!

Eyes of God sent the information of the magical beast in time.

"Magical beast: three-eyed toad, level: LV11, blood vitality: 700/700, energy: 300, strength 100, defense 200, agility 20. Talent: Dreamy illusion. The explosive rate: 1%."

It was a magical beast of LV11! It was one level higher than Roja! Although the strength, defense, and agility were not very high, it was actually a magical beast with talent!

No wonder it could invade Roja's dream without being noticed. It manipulated Roja's body and made him come to this dark forest unconsciously.

It was not until the three-eyed toad waved its hands and danced that Roja noticed that his whole body was covered with a layer of mucus. The powerful mucus made his limbs tightly stick together and unable to move at all.

Seeing that his blood vitality and energy were fading away, Roja knew that if he didn't do anything else, he would probably die here.

Fire-controlling talent activated. Roja's body was immediately wrapped in a ball of raging flames. The mucus was immediately evaporated dry by the flames and turned into a hard shell.

The three-eyed toad didn't expect that the human being, who had been controlled by it, could make such a counterattack. It was shocked and withdrew his tongue from Roja's shoulder.

Its fat body turned over and landed ten meters away from Roja. It carefully observed Roja.

Roja struggled hard and broke the hard shell around his limbs. Although there was still some mucus attached to the surface of his body, it could no longer affect his movements.

Blood vitality: 420/920, energy: 110/450!

As the tongue of the three-eyed toad drew away from Roja's body, the properties of Roja finally stopped falling. As long as he reacted a little slower, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Taking a deep breath, Roja pulled out the giant bear's blade. The three-eyed toad should have lived until now with this sinister technique. If it fought with Roja straightly, it wouldn't be his match.

According to its value, even if Roja was not in the best state, he could still challenge someone who was above his level.

The three-eyed toad seemed to have known that too, the human in front of him was not easy to deal with. It let out a strange scream, and a bright red tongue came out of its mouth. It rushed towards Roja.

Roja only saw a blurry red shadow. The speed of the three-eyed toad's tongue was far beyond his imagination. Even though he had used the giant bear's blade to resist it, it still left a scar on his cheek.

"Immune to poison!"

Roja breathed a sigh of relief. Who knew how strong the poison of the three-eyed toad was? If it wasn't for the effect of anti-poison, the three-eyed toad would have escaped.

After the three-eyed toad retracted its tongue, its four limbs flicked on the ground, and its fat body rolled into the forest like a ball. Sure enough, it was ready to escape.

But Roja wouldn't let it go so easily. It would be impossible to guard against such a strange thing if it targeted him. He'd better deal with the toad as soon as possible to be safe.

Touching the ground with his tiptoe, Roja chased the toad and rushed into the dark forest. The giant bear's blade opened a road in the forest. Although the toad's rolling speed was not slow, it was still at a disadvantage compared to Roja.

In less than two minutes, Roja had already arrived behind the three-eyed toad. He raised the giant bear's blade high, preparing to cut it in half.

As the evil wind blew, the round body of the three-eyed toad seemed to roll faster. Although it did not escape Roja's attack, it still slowed down Roja's attack.

Just as the giant bear's blade was about to fall, the three-eyed toad turned its head.

Roja clearly saw a red eye on the toad's forehead, which he didn't see at the beginning.

Roja was overwhelmed by a great sense of crisis. Regardless of anything else, he quickly released the giant bear's blade and jumped aside with all his strength.

Red light spurted out and illuminated the dark forest in a blink of an eye. The bloody red energy almost blind people's eyes.

Roja's body was lying on the ground. He didn't dare to lift it up. He could feel the heat on his back. As long as he touched it, he would turn into blood!

Only now did he know why this three-eyed toad was called three-eyed. It turned out that this third eye would only appear when it launched a direct attack with its talent.

This also taught Roja a lesson. He couldn't underestimate his opponents even if their battle value was not as good as his.

Eyes of God talent can bring the information of the opponent and show its talent. Even so, you can't rely too much on this information and ignore its use in actual combat.

The bloody red light only lasted for a few seconds before it disappeared. Roja bounced up from the ground, pulled out the giant bear's blade inserted on the side, and in a few ups and downs, he came to the side of the three-eyed toad that hadn't run far. 𝙡𝙞𝒃𝓻𝒆𝓪𝒅.𝓬𝒐𝒎

The three eyes of the three-eyed toad emitted a terrifying light at the same time. Obviously, it did not expect that there would be a human that could survive under its talent.

In a hurry, there was a red light flashing in the third eye on its forehead. It wanted to activate its talent again at such a short distance.

But Roja wouldn't give it a chance this time. Roja slashed out the giant bear's blade horizontally and cut open the eyes on the toad's forehead before the three-eyed toad used its talent.

Then, the giant bear's blade slashed down from above and divided the three-eyed toad's body into two parts.

White energy rose from the body of the three-eyed toad and slowly integrated into Roja's body. Immediately, it injected a new force into Roja's weak body.

He sat on the ground, gasping for breath.

The three-eyed toads could be said to be the strongest and the weirdest one he had encountered since he hunted the magical beasts.

However, the position where the three-eyed toad appeared was only in the middle of the fog forest.

Chapter 24

After gasping for a while, Roja took out the roasted meat and ate a few more bites. Seeing that he had almost recovered, he walked up to the three-eyed toad.

The three-eyed toad, which was divided into two parts by him, was bleeding burgundy blood, and even caused a large hole to appear on the ground.

Within a few minutes of its death, the toad's corpse had turned into a pool of thick water. It seemed that even his real body would not be able to withstand the strong poison in its blood after he died.

Roja thought about taking out the can from his backpack which was used to store the poison water he had made. He carefully activated the poison-making talent and guided the poison water of the three-eyed toad into the can.

In an instant, Roja even felt that countless ghosts flew up from the bottle and let out shrill cries, which shook his heart and made him want to cover his ears subconsciously.

He quickly controlled his mind, trying hard to cover his ears and cover the can with his hands.

Only then did he realize that within the few seconds, the fragrance had spread around him, and the towering trees around him had become broken under the attack of the poison.

At this moment, accompanied by the breeze in the forest, the tree was actually turning into ashes bit by bit.

"System, plunder."

"Plundering..."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-C talent: Dreamy illusion."

"Dreamy illusion: it can be activated by a person who is in sleep, causing a specific phantom to appear in his dream and controlling his movements to a certain extent."

"Congratulations on acquiring the talent illusory shock."

"Skill description: condense an illusion to shoot from the eyes, causing the illusion to all the units on the path, and force them into the illusion. The duration: 10 seconds. Time of cooling: 5 minutes."

Happiness sometimes came so suddenly. 𝓵𝒊𝓫𝓻𝓮𝓪𝒅.𝓬𝓸𝙢

The magical beast of LV11 not only brought Roja a lot of experience but also brought Roja talent and skill.

Although he didn't know how much damage this skill could do, the ten-second forcible illusion time was definitely a super-powerful killing machine!

Moreover, the person who initiated this talent didn't have to be a human, so it could also launch the magical beasts.

And no matter how powerful the magical beast was, it still had to sleep! With this talent, Roja could actually achieve that by hunting the magical beasts without being injured!

Of course, he couldn't afford to offend the magical beast, who was too powerful. After all, his talent level was only C, and Roja didn't allow him to cross too many levels to create illusions.

However, this was enough. Just now, after killing the three-eyed toad, a level-D treasure box had exploded!

"Open the treasure chest!"

Roja said excitedly, rubbing his hands. Looking at the treasure box, he slowly opened it in front of him. After a flash of white light, a thin leather armor appeared in his hand.

"Poison soaked armor: it's made of the skin of the three-eyed toad. It's highly toxic and will be hurt by the venom after being attacked. Hint: it can be combined with other defensive equipment. The venom counterattack was only limited to the direct attack of the opponent. Defense +20."

Roja's eyes widened. He didn't expect such a good thing to be exposed.

Although the rebound effect of the venom could only be produced when the opponent's body directly touched the leather armor, it was enough to be abnormal as a product.

Moreover, the armor could be used together with other defensive equipment, and the effect would definitely double.

Then Roja put on the poison-soaked armor. After he got dressed, the armor wriggled and disappeared on the surface of his clothes.

That was nice. In this way, it would take others by surprise!

Roja was overjoyed. He tidied up his clothes and was about to leave.

This place was a hundred meters around and had already been turned into a life forbidden zone by the three-eyed toad and the poison water he had just refined. It was likely that no living creature would be able to grow here for a long time.

After thinking for a while, Roja finally decided to continue walking towards the dark forest.

Although it was in the middle of the fog forest, Roja was not afraid.

At his speed, the magical beasts couldn't catch up with him unless he met the magical beast with special talent. Moreover, even if he encountered some high-grade magical beasts, there was still a can of poisonous water in his backpack.

If they really fought, it was hard to say who would be killed.

And Roja was more curious about where the three-eyed toad wanted to escape. During its escape, the three-eyed toad's escape route had always been firm, and it didn't seem to panic at all.

This gave Roja an idea. Maybe the three-eyed toad actually has a special shelter in the forest.

Following the direction of the three-eyed toad, Roja walked through a rugged canyon, which was filled with disgusting poisonous insects and grass. If it weren't for Roja's anti-poison, anyone else would have been killed here.

When they walked out of the canyon, Roja's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.

Different from the darkness in the forest and the darkness in the canyon before, it was open grassland. The moonlight shone from the sky, making it look like a fairyland in fairy tales.

In the center of the grassland, there was a huge tree, whose branches and leaves were thick and green. It was completely different from the depressed tree in the fog forest.

It was a pure breath of life. Just by breathing the air it released, Roja could feel that his blood vitality and energy, which had not yet fully recovered, were rapidly recovering.

He didn't expect that the three-eyed toad, whose body was full of poison, could even find such a treasure place as a nest.

Roja was amazed and looked at the huge tree with the eyes of God.

"Ancient tree of life: a tree that has lived in the fog forest for tens of thousands of years. It can absorb the energy of the sun and moon and bear the breath of life."

The eyes of God can only see the introduction of this ancient tree. As for the specific function, perhaps only when the branches and leaves of the tree are removed can I be able to identify it.

At this moment, an extremely weak light flashed through Roja's eyes. He suddenly turned his head and saw a small crooked tree growing at the edge of the ancient life tree.

This small tree was not even as tall as Roja, but there was a purple fruit, the size which was as the head of a human hanging on the thin branch.

Chapter 25

Eyes of God talent activated. The information on the purple fruit is also displayed in front of Roja.

"Divine blood fruit: it is produced by the ancient tree of life. Grade: LV2. Function: after taking it, there is a 0.1% chance of turning 0.1% of the blood into divine blood.

God? Was there really a God in this world? If so, what kind of power should it be?

Roja opened his mouth wide. He did not believe that there was a God in this world, but the eyes of God would not lie.

In other words, they could all be transferred to this magical world of killing. It seemed that there was God in this world, and this matter was not so strange.

While thinking, Roja strode to the purple fruit and grabbed it.

The icy touch gave Roja a great shock. He seemed to be in a magnificent sacred palace, looking up at the towering castle and receiving the divine light from the hundred thousand feet sky.

It was a power that made people unable to resist at all. In the sacred palace, it was as if there were countless pairs of invisible eyes, like the loving eyes of the world.

Tears welled up in his eyes. It was the mercy of God for human beings and a gift from God for the world.

After a long time, Roja finally came to his senses. He didn't even know when he shed tears.

But at the same time, he was surprised to find that his energy had increased a little, even the experience points were increased.

Roja's heart was filled with passion. It was just a touch, but it had such a great effect. What if he took this divine blood fruit? What benefits would he get!

Thinking of this, Roja plucked the divine blood fruit without hesitation.

The moment the fruit left the tree trunk, the crooked tree trunk turned into dust, and an even stronger purple light erupted from the divine blood fruit.

Roja took a deep breath, opened his mouth, and took a bite.

It was strange. Although he only took a bite, the whole divine blood fruit seemed to have turned into liquid and flowed into his mouth at that moment. When he realized what had happened, he had already eaten it all.

For one second, two seconds, Roja quietly felt the change in his body.

A strong burning sensation came from his stomach as if what he had just swallowed was not a fruit, but flames, burning his internal organs and along his meridians.

Roja coughed up a mouthful of blood. He was shocked. Was this divine blood fruit just a disguise? In fact, it was the most violent poison?

No, it shouldn't be possible. This should only be the process of absorption, and one must hold on!

Roja endured the burning pain in his heart and tried his best to walk under the ancient tree of life. Before he could correct himself, he fell down straight.

He took a deep breath of the aura from the ancient tree, trying to use this pure breath to purify the surging flames in his body.

But that was not enough. Although the flames brought by the divine blood fruit were restrained to a certain extent, there were still mottled marks on Roja's skin.

This was a sign that his body could no longer withstand the impact of a huge force!

Flesh strengthening talent activated!

Roja used his talent to fight against the boiling sacred blood while grabbing the fallen leaves of the ancient tree and stuffing them into his mouth.

The incomparably cool life energy flowed down his throat, like a clear spring pouring into the boiling meridians.

Even though the blood caused by the divine blood fruit was boiling fiercely, it was still bred by the ancient tree of life. The aura of the ancient tree of life was the best tranquilizer for it.

The two kinds of energy were constantly neutralized and adjusted in Roja's body as if two fierce beasts were fighting with each other.

Although Roja's body was no longer in danger of exploding, under the fight of these two forces, Roja felt that his consciousness was gradually fading away as if his entire soul had sunk into his body with the collision of the two forces. 𝙡𝓲𝒃𝓻𝓮𝙖𝒅.𝙘𝓸𝒎

During the collision of the two kinds of energy, Roja's experience point grew rapidly. It only took him half an hour to break through the LV11.

But it was too late for Roja to be happy. He lost consciousness and fell asleep.

The ancient tree began to shake slightly, and layers of fallen leaves fell slowly on Roja's body, completely covering his body.

Although it was an open area, no magical beasts dared to kill because of the protection of the ancient tree of life.

Normally, even if there were magical beasts hunting their prey, they would not dare to kill here, let alone rush in to hunt Roja who had fallen under the ancient tree of life.

After a long time, Roja finally woke up. He shook his head and surprisingly found that he was in a good mental state. It seemed that he was not in a coma, but had a good sleep.

What surprised Roja more was that his simulation skill hadn't been canceled and he was still Wayreth. Looking at the thick leaves on his body, he couldn't help but touch the ancient tree of life gently.

"So you helped me keep my energy? Thank you so much!"

The ancient tree seemed to have telepathy as it gently shook its branches, emitting a gentle emotion.

By the way, since I have woken up, I should have succeeded in absorbing the divine blood fruit, right?

Thinking of this, Roja quickly opened the personal information panel. As expected, a prompt popped up as soon as he opened the panel.

"Hint: congratulations on your successful absorption of the divine blood fruit. 0.1% of your blood has been transformed into divine blood."

"Note: with divine blood, you can attach divinity to a specific skill. It can suppress all creatures without divinity. This effect came from the superior plane, and could not be regarded as a negative effect by talent."

Succeed! He actually made it! This 0.1% probability really made him meet it!

Looking at the prompt on the board, Roja couldn't help but pinch his face hard.

The pain made Roja's last uncertain feeling disappear. He was finally sure that he was not dreaming, but really holding the 0.1% chance!

It was the blood of God! Perhaps it was the blood of the God who created this killing world and brought them here!

Not to mention 0.1%, even 0.01% was incomparably precious!

Chapter 26

Not to mention that 0.1% of the divine blood had a suppressive effect on the superior plane.

The suppressive effect of the divine blood was strong because it could not be regarded as a negative effect by talent. Roja had the flesh-strengthening talent, which could avoid negative effects.

If it was an ordinary suppressive effect, as long as the opponent had similar talent and skills, he could easily avoid it. However, the suppressive effect of the divine blood could not be immune to talent or skill.

In other words, as long as Roja infused divine blood into his skill, his opponent would definitely be affected by the effect. Moreover, with the help of divine blood, this suppressive effect would only be stronger.

Looking at his status bar, Roja suddenly had an illusion as if it had been a lifetime. He didn't know how long he had slept, but his level had actually risen by one level, which was only 500 experience points less than LV12!

It was too shocking. In the first section of the list, Edward had just risen to LV13, and he was the only one who had risen to LV13 in the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village.

Although Jax and Lelly were about to reach LV13, there was still a gap. About Mundo, according to the latest progress, the last time he announced his level, it seemed that it was not far from LV14.

What surprised Roja more was that he had slept for four days. According to the actual situation, the day after tomorrow would be the official challenging gambler.

There were hundreds of messages in his message bar. In addition to all kinds of trading messages, Edward sent him more than 100 messages.

Most of the messages were about Roja's status. Perhaps it was because Roja had disappeared for too long that Edward was also very nervous. In the one or two days before he woke up, Edward sent a message to him almost every one or two hours.

"Well, I'm fine. Something happened before, so I haven't replied. What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

Roja thought for a while and sent a message to Edward. After all, they were on the same side now. 𝙡𝓲𝙗𝙧𝓮𝒂𝒅.𝙘𝓸𝒎

"Great! You're finally back! I've been sending messages to both you and Wayreth these days. If these two names hadn't disappeared from the ranking list, I would have thought that you had already..."

Edward replied quickly with uncontrollable surprise in his tone. It seemed that this might be the last time he could relax before the battle.

"Well, let's stop talking about this. I have something important to tell you. All the things you asked us to refine for you have been refined. If you have time, we can meet and I'll hand them over to you face to face."

Hearing Edward's words, Roja suddenly remembered that he had given all the skins of the magical beasts to Edward and asked him to help him refine a full set of armor shoes. However, many things happened these days because of Mundo, he had never asked Edward for it.

"Okay. When? I'm in the fog forest now. Where are you?"

Edward quickly sent a location. Roja looked at it and was surprised. He didn't expect that Edward was also in the fog forest, and he was not far away from him.

"Can you come here alone? You know that I'm using the identity of Wayreth now. It's not good if it is seen and exposed."

Confronting Roja's demand, Edward agreed without hesitation.

Roja carefully collected some leaves on the ground and bowed to the ancient tree of life. Then he rushed into the forest as fast as lightning.

"What? Do you really want to see him alone? Don't you know his nature? He is an irresponsible bastard! What did he do when it came to the life and death of the whole Green-Hand Village? He did nothing!"

Ellena shouted indignantly.

"Wayreth is just of LV0! Why does he need so much equipment? I refined the equipment in order to help you upgrade better and win the challenging gambler! I don't want to give it to a guy with only LV0!"

Edward forced a smile. He had lost a lot of weight in the past few days. He had hunted the magical beasts for several days. Even with the energy and blood vitality provided by these magical beasts, also energy from the roasted meat, he still looked haggard.

"Well, Ellena, stop it. I have my own plan on this matter, and he said that he would pay, right? Anyway, it's break time now, so it's good for me to go there. After all, a large part of our equipment and materials were bought from him at a low price."

Ellena snorted and looked away.

"Anyway, after you give it to him, he will sell it out soon. What you want to do won't be stopped by me. You can go if you want. But you must come back before sunset."

Edward reached out and stroked Ellena's hair. Then he turned around and walked into the forest.

"Wayreth, here I am. Where are you?"

Edward shouted. The next moment, he suddenly felt a cold wind on his back, which made him sweat.

He was now at the highest level of Green-Hand Village. Logically speaking, no one would be able to approach him so quietly.

Unless... It's not a person, but a magical beast!

When he was about to attack, he heard Roja's voice behind him.

"You came on time. But if you challenge Mundo like this, you're courting death."

Edward breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed. He turned his head and looked at Roja helplessly.

"It's scary. But I'm curious. How many levels have you reached now? How can you come behind me without my noticing?"

Roja shrugged his shoulders. He still trusted Edward, so he didn't intend to hide anything from him.

"It's just LV11, but it's not too far from LV12."

Edward's mouth was wide open in surprise. He pointed at Roja with one finger, unable to speak for a long time.

After a long time, he finally sighed.

"Well, now I know what you mean by saying that at the beginning. We got to the current level with the help of everyone, but in fact, our combat effectiveness is not as good as yours. It's indeed a little frustrating."

Chapter 27

"Do you know the situation about Mundo? There are only two days left. According to his custom, he will announce his level soon, right?"

Roja asked Edward.

Edward smiled bitterly, shook his head, and sighed,

"We don't know. Although someone has been watching No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village for 24 hours a day, since yesterday, Mundo has never posted his level information. He only said that he would definitely win, so he has to keep a secret."

Edward looked upset and Roja frowned.

Although the two Green-Hand Village's chat channels were connected, they couldn't see each other's ranking, nor could they be sure what level the other had reached.

"What about the other two? Did they hide their level like Mundo?"

"No, those two people are unexpectedly high-profile. Both of them are LV12, but they are very close to LV13. They should raise to LV13 the day after tomorrow when they fight."

Edward said, sighing and rubbing his forehead.

"That's a big problem. I'm the only LV13. Even if we try our best and have an adventure, we can reach LV14 at most on the competition day. But we are not sure what level Mundo will reach at that time."

"The growth of Orik's level is too slow. His talent has restricted his growth. Now, at most, Jax and Lelly can only reach LV13. In the competition of overall combat effectiveness, we are still too weak."

Roja looked at Edward in silence for a few seconds. He didn't say anything until Edward calmed down a little.

"This challenging gambler is also related to my personal interest. I can't let you lose like this. I hope you can explain the situation to Jax or Lelly and let me replace one of them."

Roja's thought was simple. He was definitely one of the strongest three people in the Green-Hand Village now. He just needed to replace one of the weaker between Lelly and Jax.

Edward thought for a while and shook his head.

"No, you don't need to change the two of them. I have my own considerations..."

Edward whispered in Roja's ear. Roja was surprised. He didn't expect that Edward would say something like that. He looked at Edward hesitantly and said.

"Have you really decided to do so? Can you trust me so much that I can do it?"

Edward laughed and patted Roja on the shoulder with a trusting smile.

"If you can't do it, I think no one can do it in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village."

He put a ring in Roja's hand.

"This is a grade-two item, a storage ring. It can provide five cubic meters of space. All the things I refined for you are in it. Compared with the backpack, the things in the storage ring won't be rotten. I think it should be useful to you."

Edward said as he took a few steps back and gave a salute.

"I trust you. Now it's time for me to go back. I've been out for too long, and others will worry about me."

Seeing Edward's figure disappear in the fog forest, Roja couldn't help smiling bitterly.

"What a noble and great man... But it's really a heavy burden!"

Roja put away the storage ring and returned to the ancient tree of life with a few ups and downs.

Opening the space inside the ring, as expected, he saw the full set of armors and shoes that Edward had promised him. When he took them out, Roja's face changed.

According to the deal he made with Edward before, he only needed to use the LV8 magical beast's skin. But this set of armor and shoes obviously used the LV11 magical beast's skin!

"Savage bear suit: it is made of the savage bear's outer armor, arms armor, and legs armor, and is produced from the LV11 magical beast, bloody-eyed savage bear. Grade: grade two. Defense +30, blood vitality +100, strength +50. The set of skills: bear protection."

"Bear protection: release the force field around your body in 3 seconds to hit everything away. Time of cooling down: 5 minutes."

"Butterfly boots: produced from the LV11 magical beast, black-wing butterfly. Grade: grade two. Agility+40. Skill: butterfly wings."

"Butterfly wings: you can fly in 10 seconds, which will increase with your level. Time of cooling down: 5 minutes."

These were all the skills and properties of the equipment that Edward had given him. Undoubtedly, they could definitely make people jealous and crazy!

Not only did it provide an attribute that far exceeded the normal weapons, but it also had a very specialized skill, not to mention a skill that could enable people to obtain the ability to fly!

In No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, there was a person whose talent was gliding. He could only transform into wings to maintain balance and could not really fly. Even so, his talent rating had reached C.

But now, this skill could make people really acquire the ability to fly. If the rating was really based on talent, he would definitely be able to surpass level B or even reach level A!

Roja even wondered if the equipment was actually used by Edward himself, but because of the plan he told him, he gave it to him.

Roja took a deep breath, patted his face, and slowly put on the equipment.

"Don't worry. Since you trust me so much and hand over the fate of everyone to me, I will never fail your trust."

He suddenly grinned.

"Well, now I admit that you are my friend. My friend, I hope you can withstand the pressure there. Before making everyone shocked, you don't have to break down first."

As soon as Roja finished his words, the skill of butterfly wings was activated in an instant. With his extremely high agility score, his body suddenly turned into a beam of light and rushed into the fog forest. 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝙧𝙚𝓪𝒅.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Before the giant magical beast could react, a beam of light appeared in front of it in an instant. It wanted to roar and attack, but it was too late.

It only felt a chill on its neck, and the world in front of it suddenly became dizzy. In its last sight, there was only its body without a head left.

It was an LV11 magical beast. But under the light of Roja, it didn't even have an effective resistance. Its head was cut off by a sharp blade and died in an instant!

Chapter 28

"Announcement: ten days have passed. The challenging gambler begins! The central arena was about to open, and both sides could send 100 people as representatives. At the same time, the battle scene would be broadcast on the chat channel."

"The highest level in Green-Hand Village of both sides, please enter the duel arena and decide the order of the three competitors to challenge and the order of appearance."

A golden light shone on Edward. He rose slowly and flew towards the huge floating island in the sky.

Edward looked for Roja in the crowd. When he saw the face of Wayreth standing at the end of the line, he smiled with relief.

"Will you remember our agreement?"

Although Roja didn't hear Edward's voice, he knew that Edward must be asking him this question. So he nodded at Edward, indicating that he hadn't forgotten.

When Edward arrived at the huge floating island in the sky, he found that there was actually only a huge arena on this floating island. The seats for the audience were distributed on both sides, and there were exactly one hundred seats.

He saw a tall man on the other side of the boundary.

No, it was more like a beast than a person. He was very tall and looked about three meters tall. He had gray hair all over his body, and even most of his face was hidden in the hair.

A murderous look flashed in his blood-red eyes. When he saw Edward walking towards him, there was a trace of thirsty blood in his eyes.

"Ha-ha! How dare you come here? Don't worry. If I meet you in the arena, I will definitely drink up your blood!"

Mundo licked his lips and showed his sharp teeth. He didn't act like a human at all. He was like a beast.

"Even if my blood enters your body, I will tear you apart from inside!"

Edward said calmly. Facing Mundo's threat, he didn't even move his eyes.

On the contrary, after hearing Edward's words, Mundo was furious and rushed over to tear Edward apart.

However, there was an invisible barrier between the two of them. When Mundo's body hit it, he quickly bounced back like a ball.

"Please confirm the list and order of the challenge."

The mysterious voice fell again. In front of Edward and Mundo, there was a plate projected, and the sound between them was completely isolated.

Mundo finished writing the board very soon. He gave Edward a cruel smile and made a gesture of contempt with his thumb down. Then he disappeared in the light.

After that, Edward also finished his. He fixed his eyes on it and smiled with relief. 𝓁𝘪𝑏𝑟ℯ𝒶𝑑.𝑐ℴ𝘮

"What does Mundo look like? How does he?"

"Who will show up here? What's the order?"

"Who are we going to choose among these 100 people? Is there any meaning for us to choose 100 people according to that mysterious voice?"

When they saw Edward come back, they all asked curiously.

"Be quiet. Listen to me."

With Edward's voice, everyone quieted down. They looked at Edward seriously, waiting for him to continue.

"I've already seen Mundo. He's a very dangerous guy. I can't see through his strength. The order of appearance is Lelly, Jax, and I..."

"The person whose name I have mentioned goes up with me."

Soon, one hundred people came together. To everyone's surprise, the last name Edward ordered was a man of LV0.

"Edward, winner!"

After everyone shouted in unison, a huge platform descended from the sky. It was not until these one hundred people stood on it that this platform slowly rose and brought everyone to the arena.

"Why do you want to be the last one? You are the strongest. If you are the first one to fight, you can definitely beat someone."

Jax frowned and asked Edward in a low voice.

"No, Mundo will definitely be the last one to show up. He looked at me provocatively. If I were the first one to show up, although I could win one, you would definitely be dead if you fight against Mundo."

"If I fight with Mundo, even if I fail in the end, I won't die. I'm stronger than you, and you should admit that."

Edward said slowly. Hearing his gentle voice, Jax felt that there seemed to be something hidden in it. But now that they had come to the arena, it was inconvenient for him to ask more.

To their surprise, there was only Mundo and his two companions standing in the arena of No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village opposite them, and there was no one in the grandstand.

Roja activated the eyes of God to see what the talents of the three people opposite them were so that he could be prepared in advance.

However, when his sight hit the barrier in the middle, it returned a cold message.

"World rule barrier blocking detection. Eyes of God is not qualified to detect."

Roja frowned. This was a little troublesome. The invincible eyes of God failed at this time. It seemed that the rules of the world were forcibly maintaining the balance between the challenge.

Unless they really stood on the battle ring and fought with each other, the talents of both sides would not work on each other.

"You're finally here with so many people. What a coward! A real strong man doesn't need the help of those ants, because they only deserve to crawl on the ground and look up at the majesty of the sky!"

Mundo laughed and said to Edward.

"Please enter the arena. The first challenge will begin in two minutes."

With the notice of the mysterious voice, Mundo went back to the grandstand. There was only a thin man left in the arena.

As for Roja and others, Lelly took a deep breath and strode out.

"I will tear you apart!"

The thin man licked his lips and announced.

"Countdown, 10, 9, 8... 2, 1! The battle began!"

The barrier disappeared in an instant. The thin man moved his body and disappeared into the arena, like smoke, without any trace.

At that moment, Roja also saw clearly the talent of the opponent the level-B talent, wings! The ability to make people fly!

Chapter 29

LV13, this was the level of that thin man, just the same as Lelly. But because of the existence of the level-B talent wings, the current situation on the field was obviously disadvantageous to Lelly.

The thin man seemed to have disappeared from the stage. Everyone could only hear the sound of blades piercing through the air, but they could not find where the man was.

"Ha-ha, it seems that we can win the first round very soon. Toby's talent can give his an extremely fast speed of moving. Even if I want to keep up with him, it is a little reluctant. It seems that that that person is in trouble."

Mundo said proudly, looking at the situation on the stage triumphantly.

"Mundo, you are smart. It seems that they really want to test our strength in the first round. It's just a matter of time for Toby to win this round."

Standing behind Mundo, the fat middle-aged man said with a flattering smile.

"Willie! You have to remember that if Toby wins, you just need to admit defeat as soon as possible. I must let Edward, the arrogant guy, know how powerful I am! Blood is delicious for such a guy!"

Mundo looked down at Willie. He licked his lips cruelly and looked at Edward, who was standing in the front of the opposite line.

"Oh, my friend, it seems that the winner will be decided soon! I'm really looking forward to meeting you at the final! Don't forget what I said! Your blood is already mine!"

Edward turned a blind eye to Mundo's provocation and kept his eyes on the arena.

With his insight, he could only barely catch up with Toby's speed. Even so, it was impossible to tell whether it was the afterimage of Toby running far away or the real body of Toby.

Roja could see where Toby was, but he was not relaxed at all.

Now there were seven Toby's doppelgangers flying in the arena, including the real Toby! While activating his own talent, Toby also activated a skill at the same time, which provided him seven doppelgangers with 20% attack power of his real body!

He whispered to Edward.

"Edward, has this rule said that everyone can only play one round?" 𝒍𝓲𝒃𝙧𝓮𝙖𝒅.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Edward turned to look at Roja and nodded at him.

"That's good. Jax is not good at fast fighting. If this guy can fight one rounder, we will lose,"

Edward sighed and asked.

"What can you do? Can you help Lelly? I can feel that the guy is about to launch an attack. I'm afraid..."

Roja looked at Edward reassuringly. He took a deep breath and began to search for his own talent.

I got an idea! The level-F talent telepathy!

Roja got this talent from a corpse. He came and went alone all the time, so this talent was put in the useless column by him. But he didn't expect that it would come in handy here.

"Lelly, can you hear me? I'm Wayreth! Don't panic! Don't show your weakness! Next, I'll command you to find out the trace of that guy!"

Telepathy was the level-F talent, which effect was limited. It could transmit one's voice to the ears of the designated object. Since it was only a level-F talent, there was no space for improvement.

Fortunately, Lelly's current position was not in the center of the arena, but on the side close to Roja, so that he could barely reach him with the telepathy.

Lelly's whole body trembled violently, which was very fatal in the battle, but he quickly adjusted it. He didn't take it easy. He was also trying to confirm whether Roja's command was correct.

After all, they were in a battle, and no one could be sure whether the voice was a trap for them.

"No, you need to trust me! The herbs you identified for me a few days ago were..."

After resisting Toby's attacks several times, Roja keenly sensed the distrust in Lelly's actions, so he quickly threw out this information that only he and Lelly knew.

Lelly was taken aback. Then he let go of his thoughts and devoted himself to the cooperation with Roja.

With a heavy hammer in his hand, under the command of Roja, each hammer ran towards Toby's body with a clap of loud thunder.

Toby's weapon was only two short daggers, which were especially refined to match his speed,

But in the face of the heavy hammer, he looked small and fragile, which made him dare not to fight against Lelly. He could only rely on his own speed to move.

"Damn it! What the hell is Toby doing? Does he want to lose in the first round?"

Willie roared angrily. In his eyes, Toby didn't do his best at all. It seemed that he was deliberately giving the opponent a chance!

Toby, on the other hand, was suffering a lot. For some reason, the enemy seemed to have seen through everything. No matter how hard he tried to hide, he could always tell the direction of the real attack from his fast speed and doppelgangers.

This was something he couldn't imagine in the previous battles.

More importantly, as time went by, he could no longer maintain the high-speed movement he had at the beginning.

With the guidance of Roja, Lelly had been passively defending all the time. Moreover, he had the natural advantage of weapons. It was simply waiting for work with ease!

Toby could not stand it anymore.

'No, no, I can't lose! That's it! This will be the last blow I gamble with all my strength!'

Toby thought to himself. His body twisted like a whirlwind, and his wings twisted like blades.

"Skill: angel falling!"

"Lelly! Upper left! Go all out!"

Toby and Roja's voices sounded almost at the same time. Without any hesitation, Lelly waved his hammer to the left.

"Thunder controlling, thunder killing!"

A thunderbolt gushed out from the heavy hammer in Lelly's hand. In an instant, the arena turned into a sea of thunder. At the same time, Toby's angel fell, along with his doppelgangers, he crashed into the surging lightning.

"We won."

Roja replied.

A shrill scream came from the surging sea of thunder as if something had suddenly shattered. Then, in the dazzling thunder, it seemed to have been stained with a thick layer of blood.

Chapter 30

"In the first round, Toby lost his battle ability. The No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, Lelly won!"

As the mysterious voice slowly faded away, the dazzling lightning in the arena also slowly dispersed. Everyone's eyes followed the figure standing in the arena, and they couldn't help but burst into cheers.

Lelly's hair was a little messy, but his eyes were shining with a dazzling light. He carried a body covered with blood. That was Toby. And a pair of bloody wings was dragged behind him, apparently broken.

"Humph! Loser!"

Mundo snorted coldly. He strode onto the stage and grabbed Toby's body from Lelly's hand. Then under the shocked eyes of the crowd, with a crack, Toby's neck was broken.

Then he bit Toby's neck and sucked in Toby's blood.

The air seemed to be frozen. Only Mundo's terrible swallowing echoed in the arena.

In no time, Toby carried by Mundo turned into a mummy, while Mundo showed a bloody smile to Lelly. He casually threw Toby's body aside and strode back.

"Hey, you have to win the next round. Do you hear me? If you lose, I will let you taste the pain of losing blood before death!"

Mundo grabbed Willie's neck and glared at him with his blood-red eyes.

Willie's eyes were full of fear, with the protrusion caused by Mundo's pinch. Under the pressure of Mundo, he nodded immediately, unable to say a complete sentence.

Lelly returned to Roja and others. His face was pale. He was so close to him just now that the blood even sprayed on his face.

"Are you okay?"

Jax asked with concern.

"I'm fine. It's just a little disgusting... That guy is simply not a human..."

Lelly said with his head down, trying hard not to vomit.

"That guy is not a human. He is just a beast. Jax, you have to be careful next time. The middle-aged fat man opposite doesn't look simple."

Roja whispered in Jax's ear as he approached him.

"I will help you. My talent is related to this. Trust me."

Jax was stunned for a moment. Obviously, he didn't trust Wayreth he had never seen before. But when he saw the expression on Lelly's face, he nodded.

"The second challenge, warriors please go to the arena."

The mysterious voice fell from the sky. Jax nodded to the people behind him and walked onto the arena.

The fat middle-aged man on the other side had a ferocious expression on his face. This fellow's fat face made this ferocious expression a little funny, but even so, his aura was still extremely surging.

"Countdown, 10, 9, 8... 2, 1! The battle began!"

As the countdown ended, the barrier in the middle of the arena disappeared. Roja also saw the information about the fat man.

"Willie, LV14, talent: level C, fog..."

LV14! In addition to Mundo, there was a second LV14 in the No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village! Besides, the fat man hadn't reached LV14 when they exposed his level last time!

"Damn it! Jax, Run!"

Roja shouted, regardless of his talent for telepathy.

Although he heard Roja's voice, Jax didn't have time to respond.

Willie took a deep breath, which was enough to make his stomach swell. Then he tried his best to spit out a large mouthful of smoke toward Jax.

In an instant, the whole arena was covered by the gray fog. Even Roja's eyes of God couldn't accurately see the position of Jax through the fog.

Talent restraint! The word popped up in Roja's mind all of a sudden. Willie could restrain the investigation! No wonder Roja couldn't see the specific value of him just now.

In an instant, Jax's situation fell into an emergency. He was in a fog and couldn't see clearly what was happening around him. Even when he lowered his head, he couldn't see the ground under his feet clearly.

"Ha-ha, that's great! You have been one of the countless people who fell into my trap. I was worried that I wouldn't have the chance to make a move. It seems that both of us are very lucky!"

Willie's voice echoed in his ears, but the latter could not find his position at all.

A sharp pain came from Jax's abdomen, and blood spurted out in an instant. He let out a painful cry.

He swung his fist backward, trying to hit Willie, but the power in the smoke seemed to have completely integrated into the air. The punch was so soft that it didn't hit anything.

He coughed up blood from his mouth and barely supported his body with his own weapon. He stumbled through the mist, trying to find the exit, but he was completely unable to tell the direction.

A sharp pain came from his body continuously, and the blood almost dyed him into a bloody man. He didn't fall down because he was supported by a piece of mind.

However, human physical strength was limited. In this kind of environment, he could not find his enemy at all and could only constantly lose blood.

Finally, his body fell to the ground, and the rest of his blood vitality could no longer support his movements.

'Damn it! I didn't even meet him in the end... Edward, all my hopes are on you. You must win.'

Jax thought painfully, seeing his blood vitality gradually drop to zero.

"In the second round, Jax died. The No. 1002546, Green-Hand Village, Willie won!" 𝓵𝙞𝓫𝒓𝙚𝓪𝓭.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The fog dissipated, and a bloody corpse fell on the arena, while Willie stood on it guffawing.

"Fuck! He killed him!"

"Revenge! Edward, revenge for him! We must win!"

"Let's fight them to death! Let's kill them now! Lelly has shown mercy, but he actually killed him!"

The crowd of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village became excited. If there was no barrier to stop them, they would rush up and tear up Willie right now.

"The third challenge begins in ten minutes."

Chapter 31

"Edward, come on! We will support you!"

"Kill that arrogant Mundo! He is supposed to pay for it!"

"Edward, I have a bottle of good healing medicine that can instantly recover 50% of your blood vitality. Take it with you. It may be useful!"

The crowd gathered around Edward and gossiped.

"Everyone, calm down. I also want to take revenge for Jax, but now I have to tell you one thing. I'm not the one who will take part in the next competition."

Everyone was stunned. They let out a scream and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Are you afraid? You are the strongest person in our Green-Hand Village. Are you afraid? Why do you choose to shrink back at this time? Who are you going to ask to die for you? If you lose this time, you will be guilty of the whole Green-Hand Village!"

Lelly came out from the crowd, grabbed Edward's collar, stared at Edward, and shouted.

"Aren't you the one who invited me to join this challenge? You are the same as a coward if you back away. I can't believe that the Edward I know is such a person!"

Facing Lelly's roar, Edward just nodded slightly and patted Lelly's hand.

"You're right. I can be a coward. But I'm not the one to fight. I've already made up my mind."

Lelly's eyes widened and his lips trembled, which was a sign of extreme anger.

"You said it wasn't you who was on the stage. Then who? Is there anyone stronger than you among the people present?"

Edward smiled. There was a hint of cruelty on his gentle face.

,m "Of course, there is! That person is Wayreth!"

"What?"

Panic and suspicion suddenly spread among the crowd.

In the beginning, they didn't know why Edward took the LV0 with him. Now it seemed that Edward wanted to lose this challenge on purpose?

"Hahaha... Edward, you are really good at telling jokes! Open your eyes and have a good look at him! He is LV0! Although he is talented, he is just a decoration in the one-on-one competition! Do you know what it means?"

A hand appeared between Lelly and Edward, without using much strength, he pushed the two people away.

Lelly was stunned. He was one of the top three people in the Green-Hand Village, and he had the talent of strength. How could this guy move his hand away so easily? How could he not be surprised?

"Enough, Lelly. Are you sure you can defeat the werewolf Mundo of LV14?"

Roja stood between the two and asked coldly.

"No... I can't defeat him..."

Roja's gaze made Lelly, making him feel intimidated.

"Are you sure that Edward or Jax will be able to defeat him?"

"No... but even so, Edward is the highest-ranked person in Green-Hand Village. If he can't guarantee to win, how can you guarantee that you can win?"

"Level doesn't mean everything. Mundo's level is 14, but he has the bloodline of the werewolf. Do you think that his strength is only equal to LV14? When he was in LV12, he could kill the LV11 magical beast alone. Can Edward do that?"

Roja said in a cold voice. He looked around penetrating, staring out all the people.

"Yes, I'm not sure, but I'm sure that if I do, the chance of winning will definitely be higher than Edward. you don't have a choice now! The list has been reported, and you can only trust me!"

Roja didn't plan to make a concession. They only had ten minutes to prepare. Instead of wasting time on such a trifle, they would like to discuss how to deal with Mundo.

Roja still remembered what Edward had said in his ear that day.

"I can't let the two of them die. If possible, I would rather die in exchange for victory. But unfortunately, even if I die, I can't guarantee victory. Now our only hope is you."

"I know you are stronger than me. But I can't let you replace any of them. Only if you hide all the time can Mundo take the most unexpected blow. We can't afford any failure, so as a secret soldier, you can't expose yourself!" 𝑙𝒾𝘣𝘳𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝓂

At that time, Edward sighed helplessly.

"I can't announce your existence, let alone let you replace any of them. Once such news spreads, there will definitely be people discussing it on the chatting channel. You will be exposed to them in advance."

"So only the two of us know about this. It's just the plan of the two of us!"

Roja slowly closed his eyes and recalled what Edward had said. Then he opened his eyes and said.

"Trust me. That's all you can do now! I need a green-hand dagger, many green-hand daggers, or finely weapons. No matter how many weapons you have, take them out!"

The crowd stood still, looking at Roja without saying anything or moving.

"Damn it! If you lose, I won't spare you! And you, Edward, I give everything to you!"

Lelly suddenly scratched his hair and gave a loud shout. Then he took out two daggers from his pocket and stuffed them into Roja's hands.

There was the first man, then the second man. The one hundred people brought out twenty daggers, twelve daggers, and a total of fifty hidden weapons for Roja!

Most of them didn't speak or even look at Roja.

Just as Roja said, no matter how much they distrusted Roja, they could only trust Roja in this situation.

"Look, you really made big trouble for me. I really don't know why I promised you at that time."

Roja said to Edward, waving the bag of weapons.

"But I believe you, and you will make them believe you. We will win, won't we?"

Edward said softly, sitting opposite Roja.

Chapter 32

"I don't want to be promoted to the position of savior by you. I did it because they were indeed damaging my interests. I would be very unhappy if my own things were taken away."

Roja shrugged his shoulders and said to Edward.

"The third challenge, warriors please go to the arena."

Mundo laughed and strode onto the arena. He reached out a hand and crooked his finger at Edward. How arrogant he was!

But the next moment, his arrogance froze on his face, and then his face with thick hair suddenly twisted and became angry.

"Edward, you coward! You didn't dare to fight me head-on, but sent a rookie out of nowhere! Do you want him to die? Then I'll help you!"

Mundo yelled at Roja, who was walking out of the line. He pointed at the sky and held a wooden token in his hand.

"I put forward the only condition with the challenge token! If I lose this round, then everything will be in accordance with the original rules. If I win this round, then this round will be invalid! The third challenge will be held by me and the highest-grade player of No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village!"

"Rules changed. This was the only chance to use the challenge token."

With the mysterious voice, the wooden token in Mundo's hand slowly disappeared.

Mundo lowered his head slowly, looked over Roja, and looked at Edward who was standing behind him. 𝓵𝒊𝓫𝙧𝙚𝒂𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Coward, do you think you can escape from me in this way? Ha-ha! Your blood is mine! No matter how you escape, you can't change this fact!"

Everyone in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village had a serious look on their faces. They knew that their hope this time was all on Roja.

"Hey, could you not be so confident? You haven't defeated me yet. Although I don't know that your challenge token can still be used like this, I'm sorry to tell you that you won't play the next round."

Roja waved at Mundo and said.

"You? You are just a bug. How dare you shout at me?"

Mundo said, squinting his eyes. But the next second, he opened his sharp teeth and smiled.

"But I want to use you as an appetizer. It should be delicious, right? I wonder if it will make that man more ambitious after I tear you up!"

"Countdown, 10, 9, 8... 2, 1! The battle began!"

"He is not a coward. He is a real gentleman!"

Roja said softly as the countdown fell.

Mundo felt a gust of wind blowing on his face as he started his body abruptly. The upper part of his body jerked back. He felt a sharp pain in his chest and a bloodstain appeared on his body.

With the giant bear's blade in his hand, Roja slashed out more than 500 times in just one minute!

Under the attack of the storm, Mundo didn't even have time to activate his talent and retreated awkwardly.

Edward was shocked. All the people in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village were shocked!

Many people rubbed their eyes desperately, trying to figure out the level of the person who was forcing Mundo to retreat. However, no matter how hard they tried, the person named Wayreth was still LV0!

'My dear God! What did we see? A man with only LV0 was chasing after a man with LV14! Not only was he not at a disadvantage, but he even had an overwhelming position!'

What was wrong with this world? When could a person without a level be so strong!

Roja waved the giant bear's blade. The flames surrounded the blade, and each blade created a scorching airflow. Although he seemed to have the upper hand now, in fact, except for the first stab, he did not cause any substantial harm to Mundo.

Besides, Mundo was just temporarily suppressed. Once he calmed down, his counterattack would come soon!

Sure enough, after dodging another more than 100 stabs, Mundo finally found a chance and punched hard on Roja's blade.

A strong force hit Roja's blade. The power was so great that he couldn't even hold onto his blade for a moment. Roja's strength had reached 400 points! Even Lelly, who was good at strength, couldn't catch up with him in strength!

"LV0? It's so strange! You are really delicious as the appetizer!"

A horrible smile appeared on Mundo's face. He stretched out his hands, and thick hair grew out from his arms. A pair of big hands like a fan suddenly turned into a pair of wolf claws, and the joints of his two legs were bent back. He stood like a wolf.

Blood consciousness!

This was Mundo's talent. He could control his blood and make it boil, which could bring him almost a steady stream of power!

And this was a level-A talent! There was no cooling time or negative effect. As long as there was blood in his body, he could recklessly activate his talent!

That was why Mundo was so keen on blood. He needed to store a large amount of blood in his body to make up for the consumption of his talent.

With a wave of the wolf claw, the metal claw shadow hit the ground, leaving countless cobweb-like cracks.

Roja flew like a kite. He coughed out a mouthful of blood, gritted his teeth, tried his best to control his body, and landed steadily.

Blood dripped on the ground, but he did not retreat at all.

A roar fell on him, and he felt his body fall into a sluggish state.

Dizzy!

Flesh strengthening talent activated!

"Dizziness doesn't work!"

Mundo's skill fell on Roja, but Roja soon activated the flesh strengthening to resist the negative effect. His tiptoe touched the ground, and his body was as fast as lightning.

Mundo's claws followed Roja's back and slapped hard. The sound of wind broke arose several times, and he almost caught up with Roja's body, there was only a little distance between them.

His defensive speed was at the top of the comprehensive level! Did he have no weakness?

Roja gasped hard. The ferocious scars on his chest made his blood drop quickly.

However, Mundo was like a tireless robot, attacking like a tide, without any sign of stopping.

No, if he continued to chase after him, he would definitely catch up with him!

Butterfly wings activated!

Roja's body rose from the ground and flew over Mundo's head in an instant. The moment he passed Mundo, the giant bear's blade in his hand suddenly waved down and cut hard on Mundo's shoulder.

Chapter 33

The blade was so heavy that half of Roja's giant bear's blade fell into Mundo's shoulder. If it weren't for the fact that Mundo's body was far beyond ordinary people's, it would have been able to cut off his entire shoulder with this blade.

The blood gushed out, and the flames rushed into Mundo's body. A painful and angry roar burst out from his mouth, and his blood vitality immediately dropped a lot.

Roja flipped over and landed on the ground. The skill of butterfly wings only had ten seconds. If it was used up, it would have to cool down for 5 minutes. He didn't want to waste all these ten seconds at once.

Mundo covered his wound with his hand, but it was obvious that he was angry. It seemed that the decline of blood vitality and the pain caused by the wound were nothing to him.

"Ha-ha, good boy, you actually have the ability to fly! Good! With this alone, you have the ability to fight me! But do you think you can consume me like this bit by bit?" 𝑙𝘪𝒷𝘳𝑒𝘢𝑑.𝒸𝑜𝑚

Mundo chuckled and took a deep breath, letting out a loud howl.

"Blood consciousness roar: the user can add a special state to himself. In this state, the user can recover 20% of his blood vitality per second."

The people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village exclaimed. Unlike Roja, they were not able to use the eyes of God to see the skill description clearly.

But they could still guess the effect of this skill from the halo shining on Mundo's body and the gradually healed wound.

How could this be! They were supposed to be excited that Roja injured Mundo, but excitement turned into disappointment.

With this additional skill and the gap between their grades, even if Roja could fight relying on his physical advantage, it would not work at all!

Everyone was sighing, but Roja didn't show any sign of regret. A flash of light appeared on the giant bear's blade in his hand, which was a sign that his skill was activated.

"Thanks to you, my skill can be restored. Otherwise, I'm really worried that my skill can't work."

Roja said slowly. In an instant, a strong phantom of a giant bear rose from his blade and roared at Mundo.

The transparent force field spread from Roja to the surroundings. When he touched Mundo's body, Mundo suddenly felt that he was in a recovery state. He stiffened and then fell back slightly.

This was the effect of 70% depression! For Mundo, 70% of his blood return was suppressed, which meant that he almost lost it!

"Are you surprised? That's it! Don't think you are invincible in the world. It's time for you to pay for your arrogance!"

The wolf howled and fell on Mundo, which made him slow down for a while.

Although the effect of the freezing didn't appear this time, the instantaneous delay was enough!

Roja, like a ghost, appeared in front of Mundo. The skill of savage bear body protection was activated in an instant. Mundo, of course, was regarded as one of the objects and flew into the sky uncontrollably.

The giant bear's blade formed a complete circle and chopped at Mundo's chest with a gust of evil wind.

Everyone heard the horrible cracking sound, which came from Mundo. Then a layer of translucent armor fell down from Mundo's body.

The moment the armor touched the ground, it turned into light dots.

This was a level-three item. Roja's two attacks were blocked by this item mostly. Mundo looked like a mess, but in fact, he wasn't hurt too much.

But this time, Roja's carefully planned strike had directly shattered the defense of the level-three items, making this precious armor unable to provide protection for Mundo.

Mundo's body flew in the air. A trace of heartache flashed across his eyes, but he suddenly opened his mouth.

"Ha-ha, I see. You are not LV0 at all! No wonder Edward is standing below! It turns out that he is just a fake! Is the real Edward you? In order to let me relax my vigilance, you have put a lot of effort into it!"

Roja was stunned. Mundo's surprising statement was close to the truth in an instant.

"Demon eye of penetrating! See through his defense!"

Mundo's voice fell from the sky, and a bright light burst out from his blood-red eyes, shooting straight at Roja.

Roja felt that his talent of simulation was rapidly collapsing. No matter how hard he tried to maintain it, he still couldn't stop it.

On the ranking list of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, Roja's name suddenly lit up, followed by a rapid change in rank. In an instant, he had already reached second place in the ranking list!

On the prestige list, the name of the Wayreth slowly disappeared, and the number behind Roja's name slowly increased by 1.

Roja scratched his head in distress. It seemed that the talent of the simulation was not omnipotent. He didn't expect that the opponent also had the ability to see through the disguise.

Seeing that it wasn't Edward, Mundo was a little surprised. But then he opened his sharp teeth and gave a cruel smile.

"It seems that I was wrong. But it doesn't matter. I believe your blood is more delicious than Edward's!"

The blood-red light burned around his body, which was a sign that his blood had boiled to the extreme. With the help of his talent, his body seemed to have expanded again, and his sharp claws almost dropped to his knees.

"Hand over your blood! Talent Bloody slaughter!"

A ferocious grimace appeared behind Mundo. Countless blood-red shadows followed Mundo's actions and dragged behind him, like Satan from the hell slaughtering the mortals!

Rage activated!

Divine blood merge!

Illusion attack activated!

Trial of God activated!

In an instant, Roja activated four skills. A purple light rushed out from the middle of Roja's body. With the divine blood, the strong suppressive effect immediately weakened the grimace behind Mundo.

However, the illusion created by the illusion attack was blocked by Mundo. His skill seemed to have an immune effect, and the negative state could not work.

But as long as there was a moment of hesitation, it would be okay. That was what Roja wanted.

Chapter 34

The dazzling light of the saber rose from his hand, and the light of the trial of God was incomparably dazzling. For a moment, even the blood-red shadow behind Mundo was suppressed.

The deafening sound of collision spread out, and the buzz was harsh, but no one covered their ears. Everyone was nervously watching the collision between the blurry shadows.

"You must win!" 𝒍𝒊𝒃𝓻𝒆𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝙤𝒎

This was the common thought of everyone. At least from the current situation, they should be well-matched in strength, and he should not lose!

,m "No, no, Roja's is a little weaker!"

Lelly suddenly said. He looked nervous and gritted his teeth hard.

The power of thunder and lightning was focused on the power of the explosion, and he was naturally very interested in it. But from the power of the explosion, he could deduce that it was obvious that Roja's power was a little weak.

Finally, the violent explosion spread around, and the blurry shadow also became broken, revealing the figure within.

The whole arena was unrecognizable.

Although Mundo was standing there, he looked very embarrassed. There was a huge knife wound on his body, which pierced through his whole body.

Roja, on the other hand, knelt on the ground. The giant bear's blade in his hand had been broken, and what remained in his hand was only a bare hilt. The brutal collision just now also made the weapon's life come to an end.

"You're strong, but I'm stronger! I'm sure your blood will bring me beautiful enjoyment! After I eat you up, Edward will come down to accompany you soon!"

Mundo gasped. There was a trace of appreciation in his eyes, but it didn't stop his desire to eat Roja's blood.

"What are you proud of? Don't forget that you changed the rules with the challenge token just now. Do you really think you can defeat Edward in such a state?"

Roja shrugged his shoulders and threw away the knife hilt. Although he was exhausted, he hadn't lost consciousness and battle ability, so the mysterious voice didn't announce that he had lost the game.

"So what? You are already a dead man! I can return to my peak state after eating you!"

Mundo laughed and spread out his hands.

He was sure to win, so he didn't mind talking a little more and restoring his physical strength. There was a faint blood mist around his body, which was left after he activated his talent. This also meant that he had removed his talent.

"You ate me? Such a good appetite!"

Roja lowered his head. Although he couldn't see his eyes clearly, he could hear him.

"Why don't you have a guess? Why do I have to break your armor? Why do I still fight against you in the end even though I know I'm not strong enough? Why do I keep talking nonsense with you till now?"

Roja raised his head. Mundo was taken aback by his murderous eyes.

"You are too arrogant, Mundo!"

"No!" Mundo's throat burst into a scream. His blood boiled again in an instant, trying to give himself more strength to resist the next attack.

But he had already lost the chance, or in other words, he no longer had the chance to activate his talent.

Precision was a level-E talent. It can let the user's body automatically adjust according to the designated target.

During the match just now, Roja had sprinkled a bag of daggers, hidden weapons, and other things on the ground. At the same time, he activated the talent of precision.

Due to the talent, these weapons were naturally regarded as bullet bodies shot out by Roja, and each of them was aimed at Mundo!

Of course, these low-grade weapons couldn't break Mundo's defense, so Roja had carefully planned to break Mundo's armor.

In order to hide these hidden weapons and make Mundo lower his vigilance, he recklessly activated the trial of God to fight against them at the last moment, and in the end, he used his verbal attack to make Mundo believe that he was unable to resist, so as to remove the last defense line of his talent.

Everything was for this moment! Since Roja began to collect these weapons, the victory formula had been confirmed!

The sound of blades piercing into Mundo's body was heard continuously. In the blink of an eye, Mundo's body had been pricked up into hedgehogs.

"No! You can't kill me! These are just some hidden weapons. I can still recover! I haven't lost!"

Mundo roared. He pulled out the knife from his body and threw it out desperately as if denying the fact that he had been stabbed.

"Yes, I can't kill you with only these weapons. But what if I add something else to it, such as poison?"

The fragrance spread and his body trembled uncontrollably. He lowered his head and looked at his hand with difficulty. The hand that had just touched the blade had rotten, and his flesh and blood had gone. Circles of black spots were constantly corroding on his bones.

"You have been dead since the moment the blade entered your body! Die with fear and gratitude! You should be glad that the effect of this poison is sure to die!"

Mundo opened his mouth wide. He wanted to scream, but he could only make a hollow sound. His throat had been corroded by the venom, leaving only a black hole.

The rotten bones couldn't stop the weight of his body. He collapsed to the ground like a pile of washed sand.

All the things fell on the ground with tinkling sounds. Mundo's eyes were full of tears.

Mundo, the aggressor who started the challenge in order to plunder resources, turned into a pool of pus in front of everyone!

"I haven't finished my revenge yet..."

Roja coughed up a mouthful of blood and said with difficulty. He felt dizzy in front of him, which was the aftereffect of an overdraft of physical strength.

But he still took out the last dagger and threw it out with all his strength.

Although he was already weak and feeble, and the dagger only flew out a few centimeters from his hand, with the help of the talent of precision, the dagger seemed to have been infused with endless vitality.

Accompanied by a sharp sound of air breaking, it actually crossed the barrier that had not yet been completely raised, and inserted into the chest of Willie, who was stunned to see everything happening on the battle ring!

"The foe must be killed!"

Chapter 35

Finally, the barrier slowly rose, isolating the poisonous gas that was enough to kill people.

At the other end of the barrier, Willie's body fell to the ground. His fat body turned into a large pool of stinky water, which corroded the ground and left a hole.

"The challenging gambler was over. Roja won in the third round. After three rounds and two wins, No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village won the final victory of this challenging gambler!"

The mysterious voice slowly faded out. The huge arena began to slowly fall to the ground, and the two Green-Hand Village channels were gradually separated. Finally, the disk with corpses flew back to No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village.

"We won?"

"We did win, right? We really won!"

"Hallelujah, praise the great Virgin Mary! Thank God! We are not going to be plundered resources this time! We owe it all to Roja!"

"Let's cheer for Roja! Praise this noble gentleman!"

At first, they were not that sure. They looked around, trying to find the evidence of their victory.

As time went by, they found that in the entire Green-Hand Village, there were suddenly many mountains and rivers, and the number of the fierce beasts was constantly increasing. More importantly, each of their properties had been increased by 20 points.

Only then did they confirm that they had really won! They won the battle against an invincible enemy!

People cheered and ran to Roja who fell to the ground. They lifted him up as if he was an emperor.

Roja didn't know how many medicines were put into his hands at the same time, and everyone was urging him to drink them quickly.

It was hard to refuse. Although Roja was weak all over, he still managed to hold on and poured all the medicines into his mouth.

Seeing that Roja's blood vitality gradually restored, the crowd burst into cheers again. They proudly walked down the disk lifting Roja to receive the cheers of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village people waiting on the ground.

"Well, I have to admit that you made the right decision this time. Although I don't know if they can remember, if it weren't you, we might have lost this time."

Lelly walked to Edward and patted him on his shoulder.

"I knew he would do it! It's a sense of trust between friends!"

Edward shrugged his shoulders and said exultantly. He held Lelly's hand and whispered to him, avoiding the jubilant crowd.

"I know what happened to your family. Why don't you try to tell him? Maybe we can find some solutions. You can see that the mystery on him is not something we two can figure out."

Lelly hesitated for a while, with a thoughtful look on his face. After a long time, he finally patted his thigh and said as if he had made up his mind.

"Well, I'm at a loss what to do. If the treasure box can't give me what I need, I'll ask him for help no matter what! Even if I have to risk my life!"

Roja was tossed back and forth among the boisterous crowd. He enjoyed it unwillingly.

'That's why I don't like to be exposed to the public. Although I can understand your excitement, can you at least respect the injured? I haven't even returned to my normal state!'

He thought helplessly. He looked around and saw Edward and Lelly whispering to each other in a place far away from the crowd. He was curious.

When he finally got out of the jubilant crowd, he strode towards Lelly without saying a word.

"What were you talking about just now? I saw that both of you two looked a little unhappy. What happened?"

Being asked suddenly, Lelly looked a little uneasy for a moment. He rubbed his big hands in a hurry, and his mouth was open for a long time, but he could not say a word.

This domineering man on the battlefield was now like a frightened rabbit, unable to even organize normal words.

"Well, why are you so nervous? We are not outsiders. Anyway, we have fought side by side. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Roja patted Lelly on the shoulder. He kind of liked this man.

"Here is the thing, Mr. Roja. Do you remember that I asked you to identify some medicinal materials before? I didn't take any of them. It's not because of the insufficient effect, but because of the conflicting effect. Even if I use them, they won't work."

Roja stopped smiling and said in a low voice.

"How is that possible? Each of your herbs is at the top grade of level one or level two. At our current stage, they can almost heal all the pain. It's not too much to say that they have incredible power! How can they be useless?"

"What's more, your blood vitality is extremely exuberant now. Obviously, you just had a great adventure. How could you be so seriously injured? Don't tell me that you have temporarily suppressed it. I haven't seen such a complete method!"

Lelly's eyes turned red and he couldn't help but shed tears. The tough man said, wiping his canthus.

"No, it's not me who needs herbs, but my sister. She came here with me, but her talent is only F! It's useless at all. Even if I want to take her to the battlefield to accumulate experience, it will fail!"

"So I left her at home. But that day when I went back home after hunting the magical beasts, I found that she was surrounded by a black aura! And the aura wrapped around her was evilly and purely murderous!"

Roja was shocked and looked at Lelly carefully.

"Evil and pure aura? Isn't your thunder element talent the nemesis of all the evil auras? How can it be unable to help your sister dispel the black aura?"

,m Lelly scratched his hair and said worriedly.

"Of course, I've tried, but it's useless anyway. My system told me that I need a grade-three precious herb to help my sister remove the black gas, so I tried so hard to look for the herb. But I found so many similar herbs, but none of them is the one I want."

It was not until then that Roja remembered that the medicinal materials and fruits that Lelly showed him that day were of the same shape as if they were deliberately picked up for a certain shape.

"What kind of herb is that?"

"The level-three herb, ice orchid."

Chapter 36

Level three! Roja took a deep breath. Sometimes even he had never seen a level-three herb! At their current level, it was already very rare to occasionally see a level-two herb.

"I... I can only say that it's hard to do it in a short time. And in the long term, it's definitely not overnight. Even if we reach the level, we can't guarantee that we can find the right ice orchid one hundred percent."

Roja said cautiously, trying not to irritate the absent-minded Lelly.

Suddenly, Roja thought of the magical ancient tree of life in the fog forest.

If he was there, even if he couldn't find the ice orchid at the moment, he could relieve it for the time being. Judging from Lelly's expression, his sister must have been in a very difficult situation. If he didn't take measures, it was very likely that...

"Well, I also know it's very difficult. I was a little abrupt to say it rashly..."

Hearing Roja's words, the light in Lelly's eyes faded out little by little. Just as he was about to give up, Roja grabbed his hand and said in his loudest voice.

"Don't give up. Your sister must be saved! If you trust me, I know there is a place that can help you stabilize your sister's injury for the time being. Although I'm not sure if she can recover, at least it can make the injury not worse!"

Lelly looked at Roja with his mouth wide open. It took him a long time to react. When he held Roja's hand with his backhand, he nodded fiercely.

"How could there be such a place? Of course, I trust you! Wait a minute... I'll go with you to take my sister there now!"

Lelly jumped up excitedly and ran to his residence with Roja. He even forgot to open the treasure chest that he won at the challenging gambler.

Anyway, it didn't matter if he opened it later. As for now, he would help Lelly send his sister to the ancient tree of life. 𝓁𝑖𝘣𝑟𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝑐ℴ𝘮

Roja planned so.

This was a cozy wooden house. It looked like a wooden house in fairy tales that every girl dreamed of. It was so beautiful that Roja felt like he was dreaming.

"I set up this wooden house for her. Since she was injured, her condition has been getting worse and worse, and she can't even get out of bed now. I want her to relax as much as possible, so I built this wooden house."

Standing in front of the wooden door, Lelly explained to Roja.

He took a deep breath and said with a bright smile on his hard face and hearty laughter.

"Sister, we have a guest today. I also bring very good news. Do you want to hear it?"

Roja sighed. In his impression, Lelly was not such an optimistic person. It seemed that he forced himself to be like this for his sister, in order to affect her and make her not feel the heavy-hearted atmosphere.

The soft sunshine sprinkled on the bed, and the girl's skin was pale and almost transparent.

When she saw Lelly come back, a faint smile appeared on her face. She covered the corner of her mouth with her hand and said with a smile.

"It's so strange that my brother would bring someone here. As for the good news you said, I think I have known it. Do you want to say that we have defeated No. 1002546 Green-Hand Village in the challenging gambler?"

"I have seen it. My brother is very handsome! That guy is so fast, but my brother can subdue him. You are the most powerful hero in the world!"

Roja observed her with eyes of God and sighed in his heart.

This girl might be the strongest one he had ever seen.

Her level was only LV1, and her talent was not worth mentioning. However, there was a diamond-shaped crack in her heart, which was constantly emitting black aura.

Although the girl with white skin that was almost transparent looked like a fairy tale, in fact, her body had been eroded by the black aura and suffered great pain all the time.

It could be seen from the broken doll beside the bed.

But when she faced her brother Lelly, she could show such a reassuring and warm smile. What kind of emotion and strength was contained in her petite body?

"No, no! That kind of thing is good. I have found a way to help Kira recover! This, this is Mr. Roja! He can take you to a place where you won't feel pain and will recover soon!"

Roja didn't expose Lelly's white lie. He took two steps forward and sat on the edge of Kira's bed.

"Hello, my name is Roja. I think you have seen me before. Your brother is right. I will take you to a place where you don't have to try your best to endure."

Roja's voice was getting lower and lower, and he said something that only the two of them could hear at last.

"Sometimes, don't push yourself too hard. You should rely more on your brother. After all, if you are spoiled by your lovely sister, you will be very happy as a brother."

Kira's face suddenly turned red. Because of her pale skin, it was obvious.

She turned her head, trying to hide her shyness.

Lelly was at a loss and didn't know what to do. Roja laughed and patted Lelly on the shoulder.

"Go and accompany your sister. This is a lovely sister's coquetry. Don't miss it. I will wait for you outside. If you are ready, you can come out to find me."

Roja turned around and walked out. It was the time for the sister who didn't have to tolerate desperately and the brother who finally saw the hope of healing.

After a while, Lelly walked out of the room with Kira in his arms. Both of their eyes were red, but their mental state was much better than before.

"Roja, is there wood over there? I want to build an identical wooden house for Kira over there."

Lelly asked.

"It's a pity that the wood in the fog forest doesn't have the smell of sunshine. But why did you build another one?"

Roja said with a smile, pointing at the cabin built by Lelly.

"Come back here when Kira recovers. As for the pain, please leave it in the forest."

Under the sun, Lelly and Kira stood in front of the wooden house for a long time.

Chapter 37

"Since Roja and Lelly have made outstanding contributions in the challenge and won the challenge, each of them will be rewarded prestige point+5. Lelly got a D-level treasure box, and Roja got two D-level treasure boxes."

After this challenge, Roja's prestige points finally rose to 10, which could be said to be the person who possessed the most prestige in the Green-Hand Village.

Since that day when Lelly and his sister were placed under the ancient tree of life, Roja went to a deeper area of the fog forest.

Now he was sitting on a branch, looking expectantly at the two D-level treasure boxes in front of him.

"Level-D treasure box: there is a 2% chance of exploding level-three items, a 20% chance of exploding level-two items, and a 78% chance of exploding level-one items."

Roja took a deep breath and slowly opened the two treasure boxes at the same time.

The first one that appeared in his hand was a crescent-shaped machete. Its overall shape and curve were as beautiful as water waves. Just holding it in his hand made him feel relaxed and happy.

Roja used to use a heavy warrior broadsword before, but now he had a light one. Although he was not used to it, it was definitely the best weapon for him at the current stage.

"Level-three item: Artemis machete. It is said that it is made of a streak of moonlight from the moon in the sky. Attack +50, attack speed +100%, armor +10. Ancillary skill: Moonlight saber."

"Moonlight saber: after it is activated, use the moon's magic power to hide the blades. The duration will decrease with the user's energy consumption. The maximum time was 10 minutes."

It was a level-three item! And it was the weapon Roja needed most!

Roja waved his hand gently and felt as if his palm had integrated with the machete. The speed at which the blade moved was astonishingly fast, almost forming a ring of light.

This was one hundred percent of the attacking speed! It almost doubled his speed!

Besides, this machete also had an armor-breaking effect that Roja had never seen before. According to the eyes of God, this effect could make the weapon break through the opponent's defense more easily, but the specific effect when it was used still needed to be further tested.

Satisfied, Roja put the box into his storage ring and looked at another item.

"Level-two items: Moonlight pendant, condensed by the light of the moon. Defense +20. Ancillary skill: Blessing."

"Blessing: within a radius of five meters, you can designate an object to get 20% recovery."

Roja asked curiously. It seemed that this item was the same type as the moonlight saber, but there was no hint of a suit. It seemed that other items were needed to make it.

Although it was just a level-two item, it gave Roja the recovery effect that he was lack of, which made Roja very satisfied. Moreover, after the upgrade of the talent of "refinement", the recovery effect has also reached 40%.

During this period, the things he had hung in the trading channel had been sold out. Since he had been focusing on the upgrade, many things had not been taken out, and there was no investigation effect. Therefore, Roja intended to seize this rare opportunity to check his gains.

Just as he was picking out the things in his backpack one by one, he suddenly smelled the breath of the beast.

He thought to himself, it seemed that in this fog forest, a magical beast took him as its prey. It was slowly walking around him, trying to find the weakness of the prey.

Roja didn't worry or show any fear at all. He even kept his casual expression and slowly selected the items as if he hadn't found the magical beast at all.

The grass shook and the magical beast walked faster and faster. It seemed that it couldn't wait any longer. The prey in front of it was defenseless. If it didn't make a move now, it didn't deserve to be a hunter in the forest.

With a deafening roar, a behemoth rushed out from behind the stone.

Roja's hand patted on the ground and he turned over nimbly. He gracefully circled in the air, stepped on the head of the behemoth rushing over, and then easily fell to the ground.

Turning his head to look at the behemoth again, he found that under its inertia, it had rushed out for more than ten meters and crashed into two huge trees before it stopped.

"Magical beast: giant iron armored bear, level: LV14, blood vitality: 1500, defense: 400, energy: 300/350, strength: 500, agility:200, talent: armor, explosive rate: 2%."

Eyes of God showed the data of this giant bear to Roja. Looking at the four hundred points of defense, Roja couldn't help but twitch his canthus.

This giant iron armored bear's defense was nearly two times stronger than his. It seemed that it had focused all its defensive power on that iron armor.

The giant iron armored bear was covered with a layer of armor made of bones. Strictly speaking, it should be called bone armor. 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝒓𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝓬𝒐𝓶

It was precisely because of this talent that it was endowed with incomparable defensive power. In the fog forest, even some magical beasts whose levels were higher than its did not want to kill the giant iron armor bear rashly.

The powerlessness in the face of the invincible defense really made the magical beasts helpless.

However, Roja didn't think so. He looked at the three giant iron armored bears in front of him with a smile.

A bright light flashed in his hand, and the moonlight machete appeared in his hand. The bright and dazzling light made the giant iron armored giant bear fall into confusion for a moment.

"I was just wondering where to test the property of the armor, but you came to me. It's not my fault. You came to make trouble for yourself!"

Roja murmured in a low voice. As he moved his body, the giant iron armored bear felt its vision blur and a figure appeared in front of it in an instant.

With the increase of 100% attacking speed, Roja slashed more than ten times when he brushed past the giant iron armored bear.

Each slash left a deep mark on the body of the giant iron armored bear.

Although that didn't really make the giant iron armored bear bleed, the wound was definitely much deeper than the one made by Roja with the giant bear's blade.

However, Roja didn't pay much attention to the scars he had made, but to the effect of the scars.

Although the giant iron armored bear kept roaring, its defensive value was falling rapidly, from 400 to 300 in the blink of an eye.

Chapter 38

The knife marks Roja had made for the giant iron armored bear had reduced its defensive power by 10 points with each slash, and it continued to fall at two points per second.

In other words, Roja had reduced the defense of the giant iron armored bear by at least half in the past few seconds!

It was like that in a battle, the enemy got extremely defensive armor on, and it was difficult to break it directly. The most effective way at this time was to attack the parts that were not protected by armor.

But most importantly, he was bound to be restrained in the battle. It was difficult to find a suitable moment to attack the armor directly. It would have little effect and might be caught by the opponent.

But now, Roja had the property of armor breaking, so he could attack the opponent's armor without scruple. In other words, he didn't care what kind of armor the opponent was wearing at all. 𝒍𝙞𝙗𝓻𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝙢

Because every slash of his had the effect of armor breaking, which could penetrate the armor directly and exert a part of the attack on its body, causing the blood vitality of its body to decline. At the same time, when the attacks accumulated to a certain extent, he could directly destroy the opponent's armor!

Roja also scratched his head. The effect was so amazing that he was stunned.

However, the giant iron armored bear didn't want to give up its prey just because its defensive power had declined. It just glanced at the wounds on its body with disdain and waved its two claws to pounce on Roja.

But what it didn't know was that its current attack was no longer worth mentioning in Roja's eyes. In the face of this beast that has powerful defense but was lumbering, Roja had a way to deal with it.

His body shook. For a moment, seven or eight Roja appeared in front of the giant iron armored bear, which confused it. It couldn't tell which one was the real Roja, so its movements slowed down. It tried hard to open its small eyes to distinguish Roja.

But before its brain could figure out which one to attack, a cold touch scratched into its body along its neck.

It roared furiously, shaking its body, trying to throw Roja down from its back. But Roja clung to it and twisted the hilt of the knife hard.

The giant iron armored bear froze. No matter how thick the armor was, it couldn't be saved.

Blood gushed out, and its body fell to the ground with a loud sound. Roja had already jumped down.

"System, plunder."

"Plundering..."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-E talent: Iron armor."

"Iron armor: it can form a layer of armor on the surface of the user to enhance his defensive power."

Roja pursed his lips. A dispensable talent for him was better than nothing. It was not a bad thing to increase his defensive power.

While thinking, Roja began to peel off the bear's skin.

Although there were no useful items this time, with the help of this hunt, Roja's level had been promoted to LV14, which was only a few thousand experience points lower than Edward's.

After dealing with the useful things on the giant iron armored bear, Roja hung the skin, teeth, and other things on the trading channel, and then sat down to start a fire and roast the meat.

With his current strength, as long as he was not attacked by too many high-level magical beasts at the same time, he had the confidence to hunt and kill them. Therefore, he didn't have to hide carefully as before to recover his physical strength.

After a short while, the fragrance of meat floated out, which was enough to make people covet. It floated far away along with the wind, and even quite a few magical beasts were eager for action in the forest.

Some of the nearby magical beasts have pounced on Roja.

This prey was so good. It not only provided this meal but also provided food that he had never had before!

Maybe those magical beasts had thought the same when they attacked Roja, but in the next moment, their arrogance turned into fear.

,m When they waved their sharp claws and opened their sharp teeth, they found that the so-called "prey" in front of them was so powerful that it was far beyond their imagination.

However, it was too late to escape at this moment. Even if they regretted their rash attack, they would inevitably become corpses that fell under Roja's feet.

While eating the roasted meat, Roja hunted down the magical beasts attracted by the aroma of the roasted meat. As a fisherman, he used the fragrance to lure more than a dozen magical beasts.

"When did it become so easy to kill the magical beasts? It seemed that I haven't found the key point before!"

Looking at the magical beasts' corpses lying on the ground in front of him, and the rapid increase of his experience points, Roja was in a good mood and couldn't help but sigh.

For what it's worth, in the past, he couldn't deal with several magical beasts' attacks at the same time.

Fortunately, the highest level of these magical beasts was not higher than LV14. Otherwise, Roja would have to pack up and run away.

Stretching himself, Roja plundered the magical beasts' talents and then hung all the corpses on the trading channel.

He had stayed here for a long time. If he continued to stay here, the smell of blood and roasted meat would always attract some magical beasts that he could not deal with.

Just as he was about to extinguish the flames and leave, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the grass in front of him.

Roja stopped and pulled out the moonlight machete, looking warily into the depths of the grass in front of him.

There was a pair of bright yellow eyes, and a pair of vertical eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light. Just looking at that pair of eyes, he felt as if his brain was pierced by countless steel nails, which was incomparably painful.

"Evil Ape: it is eroded by the dark power. It is bloodthirsty and likes killing. Grade: LV14, blood vitality: 700, energy: 400, defense: 100, strength: 600. Talent: Dark erosion. Skill: Dark flame. The explosive rate: 5%."

Eyes of God gave the feedback that made Roja extremely nervous. This was another magical beast of LV14, and the sense of threat it brought to him was several times stronger than that of the giant iron armored bear just now!

At this moment, the evil ape walked out of the grass. It was about the same size as the ape, and the muscles of its two arms bulged. Its strength of 600 was enough for it to dominate one side.

It straightened up and pounded its chest with its two arms. It stared at Roja with its yellow eyes as if it wanted to force him to do something.

Chapter 39

Roja noticed the action route of the magical beast and walked towards the half-dead body of the giant iron armored bear. It seemed that this guy was also attracted by the fragrance of meat.

However, the evil ape was more vigilant. It didn't want to approach the food it was staring at.

Roja picked up a piece of meat from the giant iron armored bear with his foot. With a light kick, the meat swirled and fell in front of the evil ape.

The evil ape didn't panic at all because of Roja's action. It looked coldly at the meat on the ground in front of it but didn't move immediately. Instead, it poked it vigilantly with its hand. 𝙡𝙞𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝓶

It seemed that the evil ape was much smarter than Roja had expected. Even when it poked the meat on the ground, its eyes were always on Roja, and it was always on guard against any suspicious movements of him.

Roja thought to himself, that the magical beast behaved more like a human being. But that's why he didn't intend to let it go.

With such high intelligence, the magical beast's talent must be excellent. He was looking forward to plundering from it!

So he made a gesture of retreat to the evil ape. Obviously, the corpse of more than half of the giant iron armored bear on the ground was more attractive than him.

So the evil ape didn't stop Roja, nor did it want to respond. It just held its chest proudly, like a king who was accepting the kneeling before its subjects, and proudly watched Roja leave its sight.

But what it didn't know was that Roja left its sight, but its figure was still within Roja's sight.

Visual mutated talent brought extraordinary things to Roja. Even though there was a fog in the distance of several hundred meters from the evil ape, it still couldn't stop him from clearly seeing the evil ape's every move.

After Roja left, the evil ape swaggered past the piece of meat thrown on the ground by Roja and went straight to the body of the giant iron armored bear. It stretched out its claws, deftly tore a large piece of meat from it and stuffed it into its mouth.

Roja exclaimed. He didn't expect that the evil ape would do such a strange thing. It was unwilling to accept the meat that he kicked. Instead, it was willing to eat his leftover.

Roja's body was shuttling through the tree. His breath was very light, and every time he moved, it would only cause a slight change of airflow. In just tens of seconds, he had arrived above the evil ape.

Till now, the evil ape was still enjoying its delicious food leisurely, unaware of the danger approaching it.

Roja took a deep breath. His body fell from the tree like a leaf, and a dagger appeared in his hand.

The dagger carried the poison he had refined. Although it was not as strong as before, it was easy to make the evil ape lose its ability to move.

The dagger made a harsh sound and came to the evil ape's neck in the blink of an eye. Roja was overjoyed. It seemed that he could easily get it this time.

Unexpectedly, the evil ape seemed to have eyes on its back. It turned back and roared. A cloud of black mist gushed out of its mouth and instantly swallowed the dagger.

When the black mist slowly dissipated, Roja found that his dagger had already disappeared. It seemed that the gas from the evil ape's mouth had a corrosive effect.

Just as Roja was in a daze, the evil ape took the initiative to pounce on him, waving its arm and punching hard at Roja.

Roja felt a gust of wind blowing over his face. He put his hands on the ground and moved his body. But the next moment, he was lifted by a huge force.

It was not because the evil ape's fist fell on his body, but because the huge power of the evil ape smashed on the ground, causing the surrounding ground to roll up. The impact caused by it threw Roja on the ground into midair.

The strength of 600 points was terrifying. If Roja was punched in the chest by a sudden fist, he would have to rest for a while even if he wouldn't die on the spot.

Roja stretched out his hand in midair. Looking at the evil ape on the ground looking up at him, he felt his scalp tingling. Without thinking too much, he activated the butterfly wings and drove his body to fly higher.

,m As expected, just as his body flew upward, the evil ape kicked its legs on the ground and soared into the sky like a cannonball. It happened to be at the position where Roja had opened his wings just now.

The evil ape couldn't hold Roja, who had already flown high up, but there was a touch of ferocity in its yellow eyes. Its big mouth opened, and the smoke that had just melted the flying knife immediately gushed out.

It was so close that Roja had no time to dodge. Moreover, he was in midair without any support. Unexpectedly, he was enveloped by the black mist.

Erosion!

This was an effect that Roja had never heard of, but after being hit by it, Roja was surprised to find that not only his blood vitality but also his energy was constantly falling.

Even the experience points he obtained by killing the magical beasts were falling at a fixed frequency.

Flesh strengthening talent activated!

In a hurry, Roja activated his talent, trying to shield the negative effect. However, only the fall of his blood vitality and energy stopped, and his experience point was still falling.

Damn it! How could this be? It seemed that he had to kill the evil ape first to stop this effect!

Roja gritted his teeth and removed the effect of butterfly wings. He fell from the sky. The moment the evil ape fell to the ground, he also fell on its head.

The evil ape was a magical beast that was similar to human beings. It had high intelligence and naturally didn't allow anyone to step on its head. It waved its two iron arms and tried to catch Roja.

However, Roja didn't give it the chance to put the heavy force on him. He pulled out the knife with both hands and inserted it down hard.

The evil ape only felt that everything went black in front of it and immediately lost contact with the world. Roja's two daggers pierced into its most fragile eyes and shattered its brain.

The evil ape's arms finally landed on Roja. But this time, it lost half of its strength and slowly fell to the ground.

Chapter 40

Roja breathed a sigh of relief. After the body of the evil ape disappeared, it emitted a dark ball of light. Then, the body of the evil ape slowly stiffened and finally turned into a stone.

Roja was a little stunned by this finding. After all, there would be corpses of the magical beasts that had been killed before. But this time, he couldn't get teeth, bones, hair or something like that.

However, this evil ape had released a lot of things, including an E-level treasure box and a fragment that looked like something.

When Roja was about to pick it up and observe it, he suddenly felt that something was looking at him back and forth as if countless nails were stabbing into his body.

Roja shivered violently. He looked around and suddenly became alert.

In the dense forest around him, at least six evil apes squatted on the branches and looked at him. Those evil apes opened their big mouths, and their sharp teeth were dripping with thirsty blood.

They let out shrill cries. These guys didn't care that their kind was killed by Roja, but what they cared more about was the fresh flesh and blood in front of them!

Cold sweat broke out on Roja's forehead. He didn't expect that the six evil apes were all LV14, and it seemed that they were a whole group. They stood separately, leaving no room for Roja to escape.

Then, with a strange scream from the mouth of an evil ape, the six evil apes instantly pounced on Roja from a branch.

This was an attack from six directions. Roja could only resist his front and side, but an evil ape suddenly jumped on his back.

The evil ape raised its hands and hit Roja's chest hard.

With a crisp crack, the armor on Roja's chest cracked, but the evil ape's claw was also stabbed.

When the pair of sharp claws touched Roja's chest, Roja clearly saw that the claws of the evil ape were not as flat as the nails of the normal magical beasts.

It was a three-dimensional diamond shape, which Roja had seen before! It was the shape of the wound on Kira's chest!

Did these magical beasts have already walked out of the fog forest and entered Green-Hand Village? But the magical beasts should have their activity area. Generally speaking, they shouldn't run around. What made these magical beasts leave the fog forest?

Roja frowned, but he didn't stop what he was doing.

Although he coughed out a mouthful of blood and his blood vitality also decreased a little, his movements were very agile. When the evil ape hit his chest, he had already fallen backward.

The evil ape lost its balance and fell forward. Coincidentally, it was kicked hard in the chest by Roja. Then it flew out and knocked over the other two evil apes.

The remaining three evil apes looked at each other and opened their mouths at the same time, spraying black mist.

Just now, Roja had already experienced the great talent named dark erosion. Naturally, he didn't want to lose experience points. He lowered his head and rushed out of the black mist before it gathered.

No matter which skill it was, it wouldn't work well in front of the black mist that could corrode experience point. Therefore, even if Roja wanted to destroy the environment here, he had to take out the poison he had refined.

A thumb-sized bottle fell to the ground, right under the feet of an evil ape.𝓁𝑖𝑏𝑟𝘦𝒶𝘥.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The faint fragrance aroused the evil ape's curiosity. It touched the liquid on the ground with its hand curiously, trying to figure out what it was.

But as soon as its fingers touched the liquid, it felt a violent pain.

The other evil apes also looked at their hands in horror. The body of the evil ape that was stained with the liquid soon began to collapse, and its flesh and blood quickly separated, finally turning into a pool of thick water.

The whole process only took more than ten seconds, and it was enough to cause a huge impact on these evil apes.

Roja smiled and took out several other bottles. After he dealt with Mundo last time, he had asked Ellena to make these bottles. In this way, he could control the amount of dose used every time, and at the same time, the effect could be unexpected.

When the other evil apes saw the small bottle in Roja's hand and the miserable condition of their companion just now, how could they not know what had happened?

A scream of fear burst out from their mouths, and then the five evil apes turned around at the same time, quickly climbed up the tree, grabbed the branches, and swam far away.

Roja wouldn't let go of these five evil apes. Just then, the evil ape he had just killed exploded another piece of the fragment into an E-level treasure box.

For him, the five evil apes were the moving resource bank. Of course, he had to kill all of them to maximize the benefits!

Although these evil apes moved very fast in the forest, Roja was always behind them, and the specific time was constantly shortened.

It's almost there! As long as he got closer, he would be able to throw the venom on the bodies of the evil apes!

Roja thought excitedly. He crossed a few more trees and what appeared in front of him was suddenly turned into an open area. And on this black grass stood a huge castle.

After these evil apes went down the tree, they moved even slower but stumbled towards the castle.

Did they want to hide with the help of the complicated topography in the castle? Or was this castle their lair? Were there more evil apes in it?

While Roja was thinking, he bumped into an invisible barrier and fell to the ground.

Seeing that Roja couldn't get in, the evil apes, who had escaped into the barrier, immediately breathed a sigh of relief and stumbled into the gate of the castle.

Roja touched the barrier, but he couldn't cross it. At this moment, he suddenly heard several crows' screams from the castle.

What? There were crows in the castle?

Roja asked in confusion. The next second, his eyes widened in surprise.

The dark and huge castle slowly faded away after the crows screamed. The countless mist was emitted from the castle. In just tens of seconds, the castle disappeared without a trace as if it had never appeared.

The invisible barrier in front of Roja also disappeared, and trees grew again on the grass in front of him.

Chapter 41

"Reminder: you found a highly dangerous area: a dark castle!"

"Reminder: you need the magic runes to penetrate the protective light barrier and enter the dark castle."

A red exclamation mark appeared in front of Roja, reminding him of the place he had just met.

Roja took two steps back and the red sigh disappeared. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. It seemed that he had found a great place!

Although it was said that this place was extremely dangerous, Roja knew that opportunities and treasures were often accompanied by danger.

Just like the time when he killed the mummy, although it was extremely dangerous, the benefits he got from it were also huge.

However, entering the dark castle required magic runes. He didn't know if the fragments that fell when he killed the evil apes before had anything to do with the magic runes.

Roja made up his mind that if those fragments really had something to do with magic runes, he would have to take this place as a base in the future.

These evil apes were only LV14, so there was definitely not only one kind of magical beast in the dark castle. With his current level, if he rashly broke in, it would be equivalent to courting death.

Thinking of this, Roja turned around and began to look for the two evil apes he had killed.

First of all, there were two level-E treasure boxes. Each of the two treasure boxes had armor and a pair of boots. Although the armor was a level-two item, it was not as good as the suit on Roja. So he simply refined it and hung it in the trading channel.

As for the remaining two fragments, Roja was very interested.

The two fragments could probably be combined into a semicircle, on which half of an eye was carved with complex patterns. Although there was only half of it, it made one's scalp tingle at a glance as if being watched by something in the abyss.

Roja was right. These two things were indeed the fragments of the magic runes, but they were only fragments, not real magic runes. If he wanted to get the complete magic runes, he needed to hunt two more evil apes.

Roja stretched himself and put away the fragments of the magic runes. Then he walked to the evil ape lying on the ground. The magical beast had already turned into a stone. No one knew whether it was a stone statue or a corpse of the magical beast that had been hunted.

"System, plunder."

"Plundering..."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-C talent: Dark erosion."

"Dark erosion: the user gives out black mist which can corrode all the targets in the area except himself. It can diminish the energy and blood vitality of the opponents and damage the items. At the same time, it can also cause experience point to fall and grade to decline."

"Hint: killing the evil ape will get a trial value +20."

Roja wanted to raise his hand and exclaimed. The level-C talent was so deviant. To some extent, it was even more terrifying than the level-B talent.

Not to mention the erosion effect, it can be used on people and items at the same time.

As for the erosion of experience point, just think about it, if a person worked hard to raise his level, but unfortunately was attacked by the dark erosion, his level and experience that he had practiced hard all fell off a cliff.

This was not only a shock to a person's strength but also a blow to his spirit!

What Roja cared about most was the hint from his personal information: Trial value +20. At the same time, after his career, the experience value appeared: Judge (40/100).

Roja was excited. Although he had been awarded the title of judge, he hadn't gotten any substantial benefits except prestige. 𝓵𝓲𝓫𝒓𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝓶

And now this profession could evolve, which made Roja look forward to the promotion of the judge profession upgrade would bring to him.

To Roja's disappointment, when he plundered the talent of another evil ape, although it was also the dark erosion, it seemed that the two same talents did not merge into one but were purely combined.

Was it because he didn't plunder enough? Or was it difficult to evolve his talent?

After thinking for a while, Roja shrugged helplessly. He must stay here for a long time. He would wait until he killed the evil apes again.

While Roja was thinking, a bright light suddenly lit up on the ranking list. It was Edward's name.

The name became dazzling, followed by LV15.

Roja was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Edward's upgrade would be so fast. After all, it was not the time of the challenging gambler before. Edward had also resumed the operation of their small team.

It seemed that not only him but also Edward had a good adventure. Although there was also a reason of 20% increase in resources.

"Announcement: one of our Green-Hand Village players has been upgraded to LV15, and the regional chat channel is automatically open."

As the mysterious voice faded away, Roja saw another regional chat channel beside his personal message.

In the world chat channel, many people were talking about the regional chat channel. Although it hadn't officially opened yet, many people couldn't wait to go in and see what the Green-Hand Village outside was.

"Reminder: in the regional chat channel, the person under LV10 level can't speak more than three times a day. LV10 to LV14, no more than ten times. LV14 or above, no more than thirty times."

"Reminder: every Green-Hand Village will be randomly allocated to a large district after opening the regional chat channel. Each large district is made up of ten thousand Green-Hand Villages. No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village belonged to No. 12 district."

"Announcement: connect to No. 12 district, and link to the regional chat channel..."

Oh my God! There are ten thousand Green-Hand Villages in a large district! What a huge scale it should be!

Roja stuck out his tongue and entered the regional chat channel. He wanted to see what they were talking about.

There were a lot of people in the regional chat channel, so the messages were quickly sent. Seeing the new Green-Hand Village coming in, everyone was discussing heatedly.

"Hey, buddy, good job. We haven't seen a new Green-Hand Village come in for a long time. You are the forty-seventh one to come in. It was quick!"

Chapter 42

The forty-seventh place? It was a good result to be able to enter the regional chat channel forty-seventh out of 10 thousand Green-Hand Villages.

Roja thought as he watched the channel.

"Hello, everyone of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. I believe that you must be very curious about the regional chat channel, right? Don't be restrained. Let's talk freely!"

In the regional chat channel, everyone's name was followed by their Green-Hand Village number and the order in which they entered the channel.

The person who spoke just now was the first to enter the regional chat channel, and it seemed that his status was definitely not as simple as that of an ordinary player.

So Roja remembered his name: Sphinx.

This guy was really powerful. He dared to use the name of the ancient Egyptian legend as his name. Although his polite appearance now made others feel good, he must be a very arrogant guy by nature.

"Wow, it's Mr. Sphinx! I haven't seen him for a long time!"

"Hey, newcomers, why don't you send regards to my brother? This is the first person to open the regional chat channel! You can't afford to offend him!"

"Mr. Sphinx is so handsome. The last time I saw Mr. Sphinx, he must have reached LV16. I don't know how far he has gone now!"

"When did you get that information? The last time Mr. Sphinx showed up, he was already LV17!"

"Brother, take me with you! I promise I won't be a drag on you!"

"Forget it. Who are you? How dare you ask Sphinx to take care of you? You're really biting off more than you can chew!"

"Oh my God! I also want to be led by the big boss! But Sphinx and I are not in the same district. What should I do?"

"Hey, buddy, what's your level now? I can give you some advice. Why don't you friend me?"

In the regional chatting channel, the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village quickly chatted with the people of other Green-Hand Villages. They were basically very friendly, and they didn't put on airs when they talked.

Roja looked at the busy scene with a smile on his face. This was what human beings should look like. They couldn't be all like Mundo.

Unfortunately, Roja's wish for friendly communication was about to come to an end. In fact, not everyone was as friendly as the people who were talking now. The person who made trouble soon came to him.

"No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village? Isn't it a benighted place that just entered? A group of ants! How dare you want to be on the same level with us?"

"A group of weak people think that they can improve their strength by entering the regional chat channel? It's just a dream!"

"Haha, No. 4523 Green-Hand Village! How dare you coach others? Do you forget how badly we beat you last time when we plundered resources?"

The chat channel suddenly became quiet, and many provocative messages were sent. Many Green-Hand Village members seemed to be very afraid of the people who were speaking. Seeing these people appear, none of them spoke.

Roja noticed everyone who was talking, followed by the number of the same Green-Hand Village: No. 666 Green-Hand Village.

And this Green-Hand Village was the third to enter the regional chat channel!

"Why do you say that? This is just a regional chat channel!"

"Yeah, you are so unreasonable. Aren't you afraid of offending the public?"

"Rude and disrespectful. It's not a gentleman's behavior. God will not bless you barbarians!"

After a short doubt, No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village finally began to fight back. No one would be able to be calm after being pointed at and cursed by others.

"Gentleman? Do you mean your strange customs? In our eyes, you are just a group of dogs in bright clothes!"

"We will be the ones to take over your disguises! Ants, listen up! This is a world of killing, and strength is everything! You can only accept our plunder if you are weak!"

Roja frowned and looked at the opponents' speech. Judging from these words, they were definitely not on a whim, but deliberately provoked the anger of the crowd.

The only purpose that they did this was to plunder the resources of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village!

Judging from the other Green-Hand Villages' reaction, it was obviously not the first time that No. 666 Green-Hand Village had done such a thing. They were the third to enter the regional chatting channel, which meant that they were the third to have the LV15 of the Green-Hand Village. Naturally, their strength was extraordinary.

Moreover, as time went by, the gap between them and the Green-Hand Villages that followed them would increase.

In this way, they had enough strength to plunder the subsequent Green-Hand Villages as much as they wanted!

They were robbers who would never be satisfied!

Sure enough, the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village were irritated. They had a fierce quarrel with No. 666 Green-Hand Village. For a moment, the whole regional chat channel became a battlefield, and the two sides were cursing enthusiastically.

Even if there was someone who wanted to organize an objection, it was unable to extinguish the fire. It could only be drowned in the information of the two sides cursing each other in vain. 𝘭𝑖𝒷𝓇𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝘮

"Humph, bugs! Listen up, Galen, the strongest warrior in our No. 666 Green-Hand Village, is now the strongest warrior in LV16! And in his hand, there is a gambling token for resources! You just wait to be robbed of resources by us!"

After sending the last message, all the members of No. 666 Green-Hand Village disappeared from the regional chat channel.

It was not until then that the other Green-Hand Village members dared to speak.

After knowing how No. 666 Green-Hand Village plundered other Green-Hand Villages, the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village only felt scared.

They had just gone through Mundo's challenge for a short time, and their victory was already very fluke.

But now the strongest player of No. 666 Green-Hand Village was LV16! But Edward just upgraded to LV15! The gap between the grades was not something that could be surpassed only by relying on one's hard strength!

Even if Roja's fighting power was far greater than Edward's, there was no difference between being crazy and wanting him to challenge Galen, who was two levels higher than him, and even hoping to win!

Chapter 43

"This time, things are getting more and more troublesome. If we were to challenge the third Green-Hand Village that entered the regional chat channel, we would never win anyway."

Edward's profile picture flickered on Roja's chat interface. He looked quite distressed.

In fact, Roja wasn't in a better mood than him. After all, there was a gap of two or three levels! Galen had reached LV16, and he was the third to enter the regional chat channel. The other strong players in their Green-Hand Village should not be weaker than LV15.

Moreover, the faster they entered the regional chat channel, the faster their talent and upgrade speed would be.

The grade gap could not be simply offset by the property value. Even if Roja could challenge someone who was above his level, there was still an end to it. It was impossible to ignore the huge gap between their grades.

"I hope the rules of this world can be fairer. Although it is a world of killing, there is no reason to always be partial to one side."

Roja sighed. In fact, he knew that he was lying.

Since this place was called the killing world, it was a place where the weak were prey to the strong. Fairness and unfairness were just the blusters of the weak. The ones who really grasped fairness were the strong.

"If I had known it earlier, I wouldn't have been able to upgrade to LV15 so soon. I just wanted to upgrade, but I didn't expect to cause such big trouble for us."

Edward smiled bitterly, but he also knew that it was impossible. With the hunt going on, their level would rise to this level sooner or later, and they would meet a place like No. 666. Green-Hand Village finally.

The two of them chatted for a while. It was not a good idea to continue to be so decadent. Since they could not avoid the challenge with No. 666 Green-Hand Village, the only thing they could do was to quickly upgrade.

Since Roja had collected two fragments of the magic runes today, he had been staying in the area where he had found the evil ape at the beginning. He was not sure when the dark castle would appear, so he had to wait and see.

When the night fell slowly and the moonlight sprinkled into the fog forest, Roja was suddenly awakened from a branch.

He blamed himself for letting down his guard and falling asleep in the fog forest. Then he saw two giant magical beasts wandering under the tree.

Roja took a glance at the two magical beasts and found that both of them were LV14.

"Magical beast: Night tiger. Grade: LV14, blood vitality: 800, energy: 500, strength: 650, defense: 250, agility:180. Talent: Night roar, explosive rate: 5%."

Roja's eyes lit up. Although the two night tigers were huge and looked fierce, they were much less dangerous than the evil apes before.

He didn't expect that he would be able to attract two magical beasts after asleep, which saved his time looking for them all over the world. 𝘭𝘪𝑏𝑟ℯ𝒶𝑑.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Roja whistled. The two night tigers looked up at Roja at the same time. Their huge bodies stood upright, and their huge tiger claws almost reached Roja's ankles.

But Roja had already turned over lightly when he whistled. At this moment, one of his hands was right in front of a night tiger.

The night tiger was startled, but it reacted quickly. It opened its mouth and was about to bite Roja. When its sharp teeth closed, it found a dagger in Roja's hand.

Although the night tiger had an outstanding defensive power, its mouth was still fragile no matter what kind of animal it was. Moreover, Roja's dagger had been smeared with poison.

The night tiger had no time to open its mouth to dodge. Its huge bite force made the dagger pierce through its upper jaw, and its blood splashed. The vitality in the night tiger's eyes immediately disappeared, and Roja's dagger had destroyed its brain in an instant.

The other night tiger saw its companion die miserably in an instant. The smell of blood did not make it retreat but aroused its ferocity.

Ripples spread out from its mouth. Although Roja didn't hear any sound, he could clearly feel the vibration of his eardrum.

Then an indescribable fear rose in Roja's heart. The night tiger in front of him seemed to have turned into a fierce beast lying at the foot of death. Every move of it made Roja's internal organs tremble violently.

"Fear!"

This was exactly the effect of the night tiger's talent, night roar. The moment he fell into fear, he felt that his movements were incomparably slow, and everything in the world seemed to be twisting like ants crawling.

Within his sight, the night tiger turned into a distorted evil deity. It opened its bloody mouth as if dragging itself into hell again!

Flesh strengthening activated!

Roja felt much better in an instant, and he recovered some of his movements, but the fear in his heart did not disappear. When he faced the night tiger, he could not help but tremble.

This talent was actually aimed at the spirit, and it did not have much negative effect on the body!

Roja immediately realized that his flesh strengthening was aimed at the negative state of the body, but it did not have much effect on the negative state of the spirit.

He quickly crouched down with his fingers, and the huge body of the night tiger fell down from above his head.

The night tiger's eyes flashed with excitement. Perhaps it didn't expect that its prey would take the initiative to squat down and expose its fragile back neck for it to kill.

But was that the truth? Just as the body of the night tiger fell, it suddenly felt a huge repulsion from Roja. Its heavy body flew into the sky before it could react.

Savage bear body protection, this skill that could control the surrounding objects threw the night tiger's body away. As for its posture, its whole soft abdomen was exposed in front of Roja.

Now the roles of the prey and the hunter were completely exchanged. The moonlight machete brandished a hazy moonlight, and blood spilled over the woods. The second night tiger had also turned into a corpse.

After wiping the blood off the knife, Roja looked at the two corpses in front of him with satisfaction. He picked up the things from these two night tigers and jumped up the tree easily.

The evil apes liked to eat fresh corpses' meat. The strong smell of blood would definitely attract them. What Roja wanted to do was to stay here quietly, waiting for the prey to take the bait.

Chapter 44

The smell of blood gradually pervaded. In the misty forest shrouded in the night, such a smell of blood was a fatal temptation to the magical beasts.

Roja hid on the tree motionlessly as if he had integrated with the whole tree.

The trees shook for a while, and soon the magical beasts were attracted. They tussled with each other, fighting for the fresh meat, or simply wanting to prey on a fresher prey.

The whole woods suddenly turned into a bloody battlefield. The smell of blood rushed to Roja's head, which made him frown.

Didn't the dark castle appear tonight? How could he even refuse so many magical beasts but he didn't see the evil apes that night?

Just as Roja was confused, a black figure suddenly rushed up the back of a magical beast, which was fighting. The magical beast was stunned for a moment and before it could react, its head had been pulled off violently.

The brains fell on the ground, looking strange and disgusting.

The expression on the face of that magical beast, who was fighting against this magical beast, was extremely terrified. Its limbs suddenly bounced up from the ground and dragged its body to run far away. However, in front of it, another black shadow also raised its arms.

A heavy force slammed into the face of the magical beast. With a crackling sound, the head of the magical beast was smashed into meat pies, and now even the brains and blood were mixed.

Roja sat on a tree. Although he felt sick at the sight of the bloody scene, he was still very excited. He knew that most of the night's waiting was not in vain. He finally waited for the protagonist tonight!

It was the evil ape Roja had been waiting for most of the night that killed the two magical beasts! It was also the real target he tempted tonight!

The two evil apes didn't find Roja hiding in the tree. They just looked at each other, hammered their chests with their arms, and laughed weirdly.

The creepy laughter spread far away in the fog forest. For a moment, even the leaves that were still shaking stopped shaking.

Obviously, the magical beasts that smelled the blood and wanted to come here, stopped after hearing the laughter of the two evil apes.

After the evil apes stopped laughing, they began to tear the fresh magical beast corpses on the ground from left to right, making their fur stained with blood, reflecting an iron-gray light in the moonlight.

Roja quietly moved his stiff hands and feet and slowly slid down the tree trunk.

Although the evil ape sensed something unusual, it only took a glance at it and didn't pay attention to it anymore. Instead, it continued to enjoy the delicious food in front of it. Perhaps in its opinion, no magical beasts dared to provoke them.

Roja's body slid on the grass like a snake.

The strong smell of blood attracted the magical beasts, but it also helped Roja cover the smell on his body.

When the evil ape found him, Roja was less than five meters away from it.

The distance of five meters was only less than a second for Roja to cross. The moment the evil ape saw Roja, it opened its mouth wide, wanting to roar. At the same time, it spurted smoke to Roja.

But its head soared into the sky, leaving only its body without a head in its eyes.

All this happened in a flash. Roja's knife didn't even make a sound. After he killed the evil ape, he quickly lay on the ground and hid his body with the help of weeds.

It was not until now that the evil ape's head fell to the ground with a thump.

The other evil ape, who was enjoying its meal, had never thought of paying attention to the situation here, but at this moment, the unusual sound made it alert. It turned its head quickly, trying to search for its companion with its eyes.

But it was too late to look back. It could only see its companion's headless body slowly lying on the ground.

A hoarse roar burst out from its mouth. It threw away the piece of meat in its hand and quickly ran to its companion, trying to find its companion's head, or it wanted to wake up its companion that had lost its head.

It was beyond Roja's expectation that the evil ape was so anxious. But fortunately, the evil ape didn't notice that Roja was not far away from it.

How could such a good thing come to him!

Roja had been worried that he couldn't kill the two evil apes at the same time, he thought the second one would run away as soon as the first one was killed. After all, there was still a long distance between the two evil apes.

But now, since the evil ape was in front of him, he would not let go of such a perfect opportunity.

Bright blade light exploded from the side of the evil ape. The devil ape with its companion in its arms let out a hoarse roar. Before it could turn its body, it was cut in half by the blade of the moonlight machete.

Roja felt that it was a little unrealistic to do that so easily, but the body of the evil apes on the ground had turned into stones, which meant that he had killed the two evil apes. 𝙡𝙞𝒃𝓻𝒆𝓪𝒅.𝓬𝒐𝒎

Roja took a deep breath and bent over to check. As expected, he found fragments of the magic runes on the bodies of the two evil apes, which were put together with the two fragments Roja had obtained before, and pieces together to the whole magic runes.

"Hint: congratulations for getting the token of entering the dark castle: the dark runes. With this token, you can enter and exit the dark castle at will, but only when the dark castle exists."

"The dark castle appears at night and disappears in the daytime. If it doesn't appear, you can't enter it. If you don't come out when it disappears, you can only leave when the next time it appears."

"The dark castle is an extremely dangerous place, connecting all the Green-Hand Villages in the district. With the dark token, one could freely travel back and forth."

Hiss.

Roja took a deep breath as he looked at the information on the screen.

He had thought that the dark castle was just a mysterious place and there might be treasures inside, but he didn't expect that it could connect all the Green-Hand Villages in the district.

That was to say, in one district, only one dark castle could appear, and everyone with the dark runes could freely come in and out!

It seemed that he needed to speed up. If he went too late, the treasures in the dark castle would be taken away by other people of other Green-Hand Villages.

Chapter 45

In fact, after killing the evil apes, the surrounding magical beasts were no longer attracted by the smell of blood. Those magical beasts seemed to be very afraid of the evil ape. After hearing the roar of the evil ape, they all fled far away.

So Roja walked towards the pile of the magical beasts' corpses with great relief. The talent extracted from these corpses would be a considerable harvest.

But what Roja cared about the most was the night tiger's night roar talent. He still remembered the fear effect this talent had brought to him. It was so well-remembered that he could never forget it after he had experienced it once.

As expected, the talent Roja got from night tiger was the level-C talent of night roar.

He was not ready to enter the dark castle tonight. There was not much time left before dawn. If he entered rashly, he might not be able to leave until the next time the castle appeared.

Roja didn't like this kind of hasty action. Since he wanted to go, he must be fully prepared before going.

He turned over the branches, restrained his breath and began to check his state.

The first one was the treasure box that exploded after killing the evil apes. As expected, there were two level-two items. Roja hung them on the trading channel as usual.

These items were of no use to him now, but to most people who were still striving hard in this world, they were incomparably precious.

Then came the trial value of his profession. After killing two evil apes, the value had risen to 80. As long as he killed one more evil ape, he would be able to fill his experience.

Now Roja was looking forward to seeing two more evil apes.

What confused Roja was that his system reminded him that before LV20, he could only plunder the same magical beast two times at most, but now he had plundered the talent of four evil apes.

Although the four evil apes had the same talent, the talent named dark erosion only had a change in value, and there was no sign of advancing.

After thinking for a while, Roja gave up. Anyway, the current value was strong enough. Even if he couldn't upgrade, it would still be a strong talent.

At this moment, the mysterious voice echoed in the night sky again.

"Emergency announcement: No. 666 Green-Hand Village has launched a gambling order, forcibly connected to No. 10002548 Green-Hand Village and activated the resource gambling!"

"Resource gambling: if one fails, all the resources will be reduced by half, and everyone's attribute will be weakened by 20 points. As for the winner, all the resources would be doubled, and everyone would have 20 more attributes."

"The content of this competition: the top three of the Green-Hand Village of both sides who will first be promoted to the next level will win."

"The first one to reach the next level and win this time will be rewarded with an extra 50 points of the property and a C-level treasure box."

"The chat channels of the two rookie districts are connected in parallel..."

"During the gambling, the ranking list of the two Green-Hand Village players is temporarily blocked..."

Roja exclaimed. He had expected that No. 666 Green-Hand Village would make gambling to plunder the resources of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, but the content of the gambling this time was completely different from the last time.

It was no longer a battle of three rounds and two wins, but a competition for the fastest one among the top three of each Green-Hand Village to upgrade.

It seemed that the mysterious voice that governed this world was not without any principles. At least, it would change the rules when the gap between the levels was too big and there was obviously no chance of winning in the gamble.

Then he opened the regional chatting channel. Sure enough, the people of No. 666 Green-Hand Village were shouting fiercely again, and they were even threatening other Green-Hand Village members to exchange the materials to their Green-Hand Village through the regional trading channel.

During the chat, Roja also learned that this was the first time for No. 666 Green-Hand Village to gamble like this. It seemed that under the condition that the gap between their grades was not too big before, they had also won three rounds and two matches.

"Edward, how much experience do you need to reach the next level?"

About No. 1002458 Green-Hand Village, someone couldn't wait to ask.

"What if No. 666 Green-Hand Village has already known the content of the gambling? It will be difficult. They will definitely start the resource gambling when there are only a few hundred experience points left!"

"Who can go to investigate the case of No. 666 Green-Hand Village and see if Galen will release his information?"

"Don't forget that the top three will be challenged this time. That is to say, as long as one of the strongest ones among our top three can be promoted to the next level, we will win, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Lelly, Mr. Roja, how much experience do you need to upgrade?"

"If you need anything, just let us know. Our team is on standby!"

"Yes, it's not the first time for us to gamble with others. At this time, more people are more powerful. If we work together, we can win!"

Everyone was talking with each other, while Edward and Lelly sent bitter smile emojis one after another.

Needless to say, Edward had just reached LV15. Even though he had tried his best to kill the magical beasts after the upgrade, it was still a long way to go before reaching the next level.

After the last resource gambling, Lelly entered the area of the ancient tree of life in the fog forest. He spent most of his time and energy on Kira, so he had less time to kill the magical beasts. 𝓁𝒾𝘣𝑟𝑒𝘢𝘥.𝘤𝘰𝑚

Although he was still ranked in the top three of Green-Hand Village, in fact, there was a big gap between him and Roja.

After quitting the chat channel, Roja pinched between his eyebrows and took a look at his status bar. Although he had gained a lot of experience in hunting the evil apes, there were still nearly one thousand and five hundred vacancies.

It was almost impossible to finish the upgrade in a short time.

At this moment, in the chat channel of No. 666 Green-Hand Village, there were countless people constantly reporting the location. They were wholeheartedly hunting for magical beasts for Mr. Galen.

This gave the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village a sense of crisis and they began to hunt down magical beasts for Edward.

At this time, a sentence appeared in the No. 666 Green-Hand Village chat channel.

"Stupid clowns! Do you think you can compete with the noble Galen in this way? Galen is the symbol of God. No matter how hard you try, you can only kneel!"

Chapter 46

This aroused the disgust of the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. Although they always had a fearful expression on their faces for the high-level Green-Hand Village, they had already forgotten about it in anger.

Thus, the two sides began to fiercely quarrel on the regional chat channel.

Roja sneered and exited the chat channel.

His opponent's words ignited a flame in his heart. He really hated such arrogant and superior people. And the arrogant attitude of them aroused some bad memories of him.

'Haha, you call us clowns, and can't compare with you. Let's wait and see who will be the clown in the end!'

Roja thought. Although his heart was burning with anger, he was still calm.

Although the attitude of the opponent was very bad, the anxious state of the upgrade could not deceive people. In other words, they were not sure what level his upgrade had reached, and there was a big gap for them to reach the next level.

That's why they were so anxious to get the upgrade, so they used arrogant words to cover up their panic. After all, the content of this challenge was absolutely beyond their expectations before they activated the gambling order.

Roja stretched out his arms and jumped down from the tree like a night owl.

The moment he landed on the ground, he dived into the darkness, hiding his whole body under the shadow. He didn't want to waste too much time here. The top priority now was to get the victory of gambling as soon as possible.

Now the area he was in was no longer able to meet his hunting needs for magical beasts. He needed to find a stronger magical beast to improve his strength and level!

Therefore, he ran deeper into the fog forest, which was the core area of the fog forest. The level of the magical beasts also increased with the shorter distance of the core area.

Roja stopped. He had already passed the middle area and reached the periphery of the core area. As soon as he arrived, he felt a sinister aura.

Since he had the talent of making poison, he was very sensitive to such kind of aura. It must be a terrible hunter, just around him!

He slowed down his pace and wanted to observe carefully, but suddenly he felt a surge of the ground beneath his feet and dodged aside reflexively. In an instant, a black sting rushed out from the ground.

A black stream of air wrapped around the sting and only grazed Roja's side face, leaving a bloodstain there. The wound was still emitting black smoke.

If it weren't for Roja's 100% antidote, it would have injected the fierce poison into Roja's body!

Then, the whole ground suddenly collapsed, and a huge scorpion came out of the ground. It waved two huge pincers and attacked Roja.

Although the scorpion's body was huge, it didn't slow down at all. Roja jumped up and down, and he grazed the scorpion's tail to stab it several times.

This place was worthy of being called the periphery of the core area. Even such a scorpion had a level of nearly LV15. Roja speculated that if the scorpion could live for a few more years, it would definitely surpass LV15! 𝙡𝓲𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝒐𝙢

But that was it. Roja didn't give the scorpion any chance to continue to pester him. He didn't know what kind of magical beasts would be in the core area.

The moonlight machete pulled out a shining light, tearing apart the darkness in the fog forest. The scorpion's eyes hurt, feeling a vague light, and in the next moment, it could not move.

With one hundred percent attack speed, Roja slashed two times in an instant and accurately cut off the scorpion's leg.

As for the dangerous sting, Roja carefully cut off the part connecting the sting and the scorpion's body. This was the poison of the magical beast whose grade was similar to LV15. The effect was absolutely beyond imagination!

Moreover, if this kind of thing could be refined into a special item, its unique poison must have a very good increase.

"System, plunder!"

"Plundering..."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the Level-C talent: venom strengthening."

"Venom strengthening: it can extract unique poisons from any plant and strengthen them. The degree of strengthening depends on the degree of the venom being extracted. At the same time, the user can increase one hundred percent of the antidote."

"Ding! Since you had one hundred percent of the antidote, the system was automatically added to you to be immune to all poison attacks."

Due to the lack of time, Roja quickly plundered its talent and began to run along the periphery of the core area. However, he was extremely restless.

This level-C talent was already very outrageous. His poison making could only refine existing poisons, and if he mixed poisons, it could only have the normal effect.

However, the venom-strengthening talent Roja had learned was not that simple.

The first was to extract toxins from any plant, which was the breakthrough of limitation of the source of venom. This allowed Roja to operate and use more different types of poisons, and even some unknown poisons!

After the mixed strengthening, the effects of these toxins would definitely be multiplied!

If you read the words "immune to all poison attacks" carefully, there was a big difference from "obtain one hundred percent of the antidote".

"One hundred percent antidote" could only help Roja to be immune to the poison in the attack. However, "immune to all poison attacks" could help Roja ignore any attack with poison!

That was to say if Roja was attacked by any poison. No matter how powerful this attack was, it would not cause any harm to Roja!

Roja's heart was filled with joy. He rushed all the way to kill the magical beasts. Although each magical beast was incomparably powerful, it wouldn't be a big problem for Roja as long as he dealt with it carefully.

In this way, within two hours, Roja killed 6 LV14 magical beasts in total and obtained a total of 120 experience points!

It was known to all that at the same time, even if Edward had the help of his teammates, he could only kill two or three magical beasts!

Chapter 47

Roja was satisfied with his speed. He was about to have a rest and collect the materials for hunting the magical beasts. So he found a hidden place and sat down.

However, he hasn't sat down for a while, he suddenly felt a beam of light staring at his body.

This was definitely not the light at dawn! In the core area of the fog forest, the sunlight had become extremely weak. Through thick leaves and thick fog, only a very small part of the sunlight could reach Roja. 𝙡𝓲𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝒐𝙢

However, this ray of light was even more dazzling.

Roja hid in the shadow and looked out carefully.

There was a huge stone pillar less than two hundred meters away from him. At the top of the stone pillar, there was a shining spot like an eye, which was slowly rotating.

Perhaps it was because the shining spot of the stone pillar was always rotating that Roja didn't notice the stone pillar hidden in the trees when he first chose this place.

There were many complicated patterns engraved on the stone pillar, like some ancient words that were densely arranged on it.

Roja felt dizzy after only a few glances as if those tadpole-like words were going to fight in his mind.

Roja picked up a stone carefully and threw it at the stone pillar. He had to make sure what it was. In this fog forest, he had never heard that the magical beast's body was made of stone.

And the stone pillar that appeared here were definitely not just decorations. They must have some meaning.

With a click, the stone gently hit the stone pillar. The light at the top of the stone pillar suddenly stopped spinning, but slowly gathered and froze at a point.

Cold sweat began to break out on Roja's forehead. He didn't expect that he had only thrown a stone, and the stone pillar could accurately locate his position!

Regardless of the danger of being exposed, he jumped up and rolled out of the shadow. At the moment he moved, a strong light suddenly burst out from the top of the stone pillar.

Roja felt a scorching heatwave pushing his body far away. He fell awkwardly on the grass and didn't stop until his back hit a thick tree.

When he swayed his dizzy head to look at the place where he had hidden just now, he could not help but open his mouth in surprise. He tried to rub his eyes and even suspected that he had seen it wrong.

The impact just now made him fly more than ten meters, and the place where he had hidden had now turned into a huge deep pit!

Grass, trees, and soil seemed to have disappeared in that space. In less than a second, they had evaporated!

Another shining spot appeared on his body, and the stone pillar was still chasing after him.

Roja stood straight with hair all over his body. He didn't dare to stay any longer. He jumped up in a hurry and hid around with the help of trees, while the shining spot of the stone pillar was chasing his body all the time.

If it weren't for the fact that Roja's agility was extraordinary, he would have been turned into nothingness by this strange ray of light.

"No, I have to leave here first. Otherwise, my physical strength will run out sooner or later!"

As soon as this thought appeared in Roja's mind, he suddenly felt a shake in front of him, and the soil under his feet kept surging up.

He couldn't stand steadily and had to retreat. Suddenly, he saw a large shadow in front of him.

It was a huge human-shaped object, or in other words, a human-shaped object made of stones!

Standing in front of Roja, it looked like an airtight wall! And there was more than one stone man like this. With the stone pillar as the center, eight stone men emerged around Roja.

They walked neatly and formed a solid wall, surrounding Roja.

Plus the ray of light from the stone pillar, Roja was in a dilemma.

The stone giants raised their hands and slapped hard on Roja's body. Roja could only try his best to shake his body and escape from the gap in their hands.

But the next second, the scorching ray almost grazed his body and hit the ground.

Roja was floating in midair. He activated butterfly wings and rage to let his body float in midair. At the same time, he activated the skill attached to the savage bear suit, the savage bear body protection.

Suddenly, the two stone giants closest to Roja were thrown into the air.

Although these stone giants were huge, the effect of forceful flying made them fly into the air. Roja seized the opportunity and cut them off from the middle of the stone giants with a flash of the moon machete.

The other stone giants took advantage of this moment and strode forward. It seemed that they wanted to grab Roja's body in the air.

However, the distance between these stone giants and Roja was different, so the speed at which they reached out their hands was naturally different. Although they had reached out their hands in unison, Roja kicked the stone giant that had reached out its hands at the beginning.

His body hit out like a cannonball and stabbed the moonlight machete into the chest of the stone giant in front of him.

Countless cracks appeared on the stone giant's body. It seemed to let out a heavy groan in its head, and then it was broken into pieces.

In an instant, Roja had killed three stone giants, but it was not the case.

The stone giant that was cut by him around the waist at the beginning began to slowly sew up. It seemed that it would be restored to its original state in a few seconds.

Roja had already known about this situation. The Eyes of God didn't give the hint that these were magical beasts. In Roja's eyes, these stone giants didn't even have blood vitality.

But it was a lifeless stone. How could it have blood vitality?

Then the only way to stop these stone giants was to destroy the stone pillar that Roja found at the beginning!

Therefore, the stone giant that Roja broke in the end was exactly the one between him and the stone pillar.

After the stone giant broke into pieces, Roja's body turned into a beam of light, pulling out a bright blade light and ruthlessly cutting into the middle of the stone pillar.

Accompanied by a loud cracking sound, the stone pillar was smoothly broken into two pieces from the middle before it could shoot any rays.

Chapter 48

As expected, after the huge stone pillar was split in half by Roja from the middle, all the stone giants stopped moving and their hands behind Roja slowly froze.

Roja breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was right. He turned around and gently touched the stone giant behind him. He saw that the majestic giant turned into powder under the touch of Roja.

As if the chain effect had been triggered, the other stone giants also turned into dust and fell to the ground as if they had never appeared.

However, the stone pillar was still shining with a faint light. Even though it was divided into two parts by Roja, it did not disappear.

"Notice: Roja cut off the cursed stone statue in the fog forest and got prestige point+1."

Roja was surprised. He didn't expect that he would get the reward of prestige point after he cut off the pillar, which made him more curious about the origin of the stone pillar.

Although there was only a brief description of this stone pillar in the Eyes of God, "A relic of antiquity standing in the black fog forest." Roja knew that something that could add prestige points was definitely not a simple thing.

He walked forward and checked carefully. As expected, he saw some unusual shining spots in the broken cross-section of the stone pillar.

Obviously, the blue shining spot didn't belong to this stone pillar. When Roja reached out his hand, the blue shining spot automatically separated from the stone pillar and landed on Roja's palm.

"Congratulations on obtaining a level-two mission token. After you open the level-two mission token, you will be able to obtain an infinite level-two mission. After completing the mission, you could get a level-B treasure box."

Roja was stunned by the words displayed on the screen of his projection, and then he was in ecstasies.

This was actually a level-two mission token, and it was limitless! More importantly, after completing this level-two mission, the reward was a level-B treasure box!

Although Roja had killed a lot of magical beasts and got a lot of rewards in the past few days, he only got a D-level treasure box at most!

'Now open it and have a look. Anyway, it's an infinite mission. Even if he can't finish it now, it's still not too late to finish it later!'

Roja thought excitedly and opened the mission token.

"Announcement: Roja became the first person to use the mission token in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. The reward is prestige point+1."

"Congratulations to No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. You have fulfilled the corresponding conditions and activated the mission channel."

"You can enter the mission channel to check the unfinished missions of yours."

The mysterious voice sounded slow. Roja clicked on his personal information, and there was indeed a mission column beside his personal information.

After clicking, two projections appeared. One was a public mission, and the other was a personal mission.

The public mission column didn't show anything, but Roja's personal mission column showed the missions he had obtained.

"Hint: congratulations on obtaining the level-two mission: break the thorny array (no time limit)."

"Mission content: collect five hearts of the mutated magical beast kings, and then go to the forgotten wilderness to find the thorny garden to break the boundary between the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village and the outside world."

"Mission hint: once the border array is broken, No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village can enter a world blocked by thorns. There are more resources, more powerful magical beasts and races there. It will be a richer world than Green-Hand Village."

"Mission hint: out of the border of all the Green-Hand Villages of the No. 12 district was the same great world. The Green-Hand Village that was prior to entering the great world could enjoy the priority to distribute the resources of the great world."

My God! This was actually a mission to explore the map!

Roja couldn't help but exclaim with his mouth wide open. No wonder there was no deadline for this mission.

Because there was no deadline, which meant that the mission would not be finished until it was completed. If he didn't complete this mission, then No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village would never have a chance to explore the outside world!

There was a bigger world outside. The forty-third to enter the regional chat channel had already attracted opponents. If they entered the world with stronger competition, it would definitely be a world of the jungle!

Roja thought to himself.

He didn't want to be a pushover like this time when he entered the regional chat channel.

In this sand clock world, if he didn't want to be bullied by others, he should be the strongest! Since the rules are made by the strong, then we can become the strong, right?

Thinking of this, Roja became more ambitious.

"Mission hint: among the five mutated magical beast kings, the forest wolf king is the weakest. Its habitat is located in the center of the fog forest. It is suggested to start from the forest wolf king to complete the mission."

"Forest wolf king: the mutated magical beast king of LV18, with the habit of living in groups, carrying the wolves in the forest. It was suggested that 10 strong men above LV17 should join the hunting team."

Roja almost bit his tongue. He had been ambitious just now and wanted to finish this mission as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that the first beast king was so troublesome.

The mutated magical beast king of LV18! Even if Roja was confident in his strength, he hadn't been so confident! 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝙧𝙚𝓪𝒅.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Well, it seemed that he had to do this mission slowly. With his current strength, it was still far from enough to get involved.

Roja scratched his head, lost in thought. Suddenly, he patted his head and scolded himself for being stupid.

Although the forest wolf king was the mutated magical beast king, it did not mean that the wolves it led were also the mutated magical beasts with such a horrible level!

If he could hunt some ordinary forest wolves, he could not only reduce the strength of the wolf king but also get more experience points!

Roja felt that he had a bright future.

So he immediately regained his composure. Roja jumped onto a branch and slowly headed for the location of the wolves in the forest that the mission had marked for him.

As Roja went deeper and deeper, the fog around him became thicker and thicker. He didn't dare to continue to pursue speed. Instead, he moved slowly and didn't dare to make any sound.

This was the territory of the magical beasts, and he was approaching the core area. At this time, even if there was a magical beast of LV17, Roja might not be surprised.

After all, he might have lost his life before he was surprised.

Chapter 49

According to the instructions of the projection, the front was the core area of the fog forest.

The fog was already very thick. If it weren't for Roja's talent for visual mutation, he might not even be able to tell the direction here.

No wonder it was suggested that ten strong men above LV17 should be together to kill here. With Roja's current strength, he could only carefully investigate around. If he really overestimated himself and fought against the wolves alone, he would probably be eaten up.

Roja lay prone on a tree trunk, motionless. According to the system, this should be the habitat of the forest wolves. There were no other magical beasts within this area where they lived.

So Roja could relax a little.

After all, the wolves usually moved in groups most of the time. He only needed to keep hiding when they appeared.

When Roja was nervously searching for wolves in the fog, Roja heard a sharp howl.

The howl was as shrill as if it was soaked in blood. Roja stood straight with his flesh creep. He felt his limbs weak and almost fell from the tree trunk.

This howl was made by the forest wolf king. As a king in the mutated magical beasts, even its ordinary howl could frighten low-level creatures.

At this moment, the forest wolf king was rushing into the fog forest with nearly a hundred wolves. It seemed that they were going to hunt down the magical beasts at the periphery of the core area.

They were still a few hundred meters away from Roja. Roja squinted at them, half happy and half worried.

What pleased him was that not every forest wolf was as strong as the wolf king as he expected.

The level of the demonic wolves at the end of the wolf pack was only LV14 or LV15, which happened to be within hunting range of Roja.

What worried him most was that the forest wolves didn't seem to have any plans to separate. If Roja really planned to do something to the last few wolves, it would inevitably arouse the other wolves' vigilance.

The Eyes of God accurately reflected the information of the forest wolf in front of Roja.

"Magical beast: forest demonic wolf, level LV15, element: wind, blood vitality: 1300, energy: 400, strength: 500, defense: 180, agility:200. Talent: airflow controlling. Skill: wind blade. The explosive rate: 5%."

This was just an ordinary forest demonic wolf, but its value was already extraordinary. Moreover, the talent of the forest demonic wolf had actually reached level C!

The forest wolf king that ran in front of the wolves, not only had a much higher value than the ordinary wolves but also had a greater talent than the ordinary wolves!

"Magical beast: mutated demonic wolf king (beastmaster level), level LV17, element: wind, blood vitality: 1800, energy: 600, strength: 800, defense: 300, agility:300. Talent: airflow controlling and wind controlling. Skill: wind blade. The explosive rate: 10%."

Roja rubbed his forehead and felt a headache.

Now he was so angry that he felt that this mission was actually a lie to him. With the ability of the forest wolf king, not to mention ten strong men above LV17, even if there were 20, they might not be able to defeat him!

At this time, the wolves had already run to the periphery of the core area. Accompanied by the roar of the forest wolf king, the forest wolves stopped.

Roja tensed up all of a sudden.

Why did the wolves suddenly stop? Had they found me?

Roja quietly moved his body, ready to escape at any time. But soon he gave up the idea.

If the wolves had found him, the wolf king would definitely bring them here. But now the wolves stopped and had no intention of moving. 𝑙𝘪𝑏𝓇𝑒𝑎𝒹.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Noticing this, Roja stopped and continued to peep at the wolves carefully.

A giant demonic wolf slowly walked out of the pack of wolves. It roared and communicated with the wolf king for a while, walked to the edge of the core area and sit down.

The wolf king ran into the fog forest with the wolves behind it.

Roja finally understood that this giant wolf was used by the wolf king to stay and guard their lair. Just now, when the wolf pack stopped, it was only the wolf king that decided which to stay and guard the lair today.

Looking at the information about this giant wolf, Roja felt a boost of spirit. It was a mutated demonic wolf. Although it was huge, its level was only LV14!

More importantly, the forest wolf was alone now! It was leisurely and seemed that it was not vigilant at all. This was a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity for him!

Attack! He must attack! He had to kill this giant wolf before the wolves came back!

Roja's heart was pounding like a drum in his chest. His body was like a snake, sliding down from the tree and moving slowly against the grass.

He didn't want to get close fast, but he had to hide. Every time the wind blew, he would move forward by the shaking of the grass.

Roja crawled for more than an hour to move a couple of hundred meters, now he was less than one hundred meters away from the demonic wolf.

The forest demonic wolves were the top races in the fog forest. Perhaps they never thought that they would be attacked one day, and even at the door of their lair!

At this moment, the demonic wolf was licking its claws leisurely, squinting its eyes and staring at the sky leisurely, looking bored.

However, the next time the wind blew up, the hair all over its body suddenly exploded, and even the tip of its tail stood up.

The wind sent him an unusual sound. The forest demonic wolf was originally the magical beast with the wind attributes. It was very far away just now, and it was relaxed, so it could not feel the existence of Roja.

But now, Roja was close to him. When the breeze blew, he felt the strange movement of the air around him.

Roja thought something was wrong. He saw the demonic wolf raise its head and was about to howl to remind its companions of the danger signal. He knew that he couldn't wait any longer.

Chapter 50

The forest demonic wolf opened its mouth wide, but before it could howl, it felt a blow on its nose.

The heavy force turned the howl into a painful whimper. Its nose was hit askew, and its huge body shrank in pain.

Of course, it was Roja who hit him. At that time, he had no time to pull out his weapon. He punched the demonic wolf to stop it from howling.

At this moment, the nose of the forest demonic wolf was broken by him. The moment Roja landed on the ground, he took out the moonlight machete and rushed towards the forest demonic wolf. He wanted to kill it in the shortest time, and then leave without leaving any trace.

Otherwise, once he left a trace, the wolf king would lead the pack of wolves to hunt him down crazily in the fog forest.

At that time, not only would he not be able to complete this mission, but he would no longer be able to stay in the fog forest to hunt down the magical beasts. Perhaps the other people who were still in the fog forest to upgrade would also be involved.

The blade was as fast as lightning, dashing towards the wolf's neck. According to Roja's idea, with 100% attack speed, even if he couldn't kill the wolf with one slash, at least it would be able to make no sound.

But when he was running, he suddenly felt that his body slowed down.

It was not because his speed had declined, but because the surrounding airflow seemed to have formed a gum. When his body rushed into it, strands of airflow wrapped around his body, preventing him from moving forward.

Airflow controlling!

Roja's heart tightened. This was the talent of the forest demonic wolf, and it was used on the airflow to block his advance. Therefore, the negative effects of the flesh strengthening could not directly get rid of the airflow.

Roja waved the machete and gave up the idea of continuing to rush. He tried to break free from the tricky airflow.

Wherever the blade passed, the streams of airflow were divided into two parts. Although the airflow controlled by the airflow controlling was originally invisible and formless, with the help of talent, the slowly flowing airflow seemed to be endowed with a form.

Thanks to this, Roja could use the blade to cut off the airflow and get rid of it.

When Roja just got out of the airflow, he suddenly felt blurred. There was nothing in front of him, but a huge crisis made him turn his head involuntarily.

A gust of strong wind blew past Roja's face, leaving a small mark on it. Then he turned his head and saw that the strong wind blew out from afar and cut off a thick tree.

Wind blade!

Although this skill was simple, it excelled at launching at a very fast speed and attacking a very long distance. When combined with the airflow controlling, it was almost impossible to guard against.

If Roja hadn't made up his mind to use the moonlight machete to cut off the airflow and escape, the wind blade would have cut through his neck.

At the thought of this, Roja broke out in a cold sweat. He rolled to the ground and swung the machete in his hand, creating a blurry shadow around his body, cutting the thick air. At the same time, he waved his hand and three daggers rushed toward the location of the demonic wolf.

However, under the airflow controlled by the forest demonic wolf, how could these three blades get close to the body of the wolf?

As they flew, they were frozen in midair by the thick airflow. Under the control of the forest demonic wolf, they turned back and rushed towards Roja.

However, Roja had already been prepared. He waved his hand and another three daggers flew out. When the three daggers collided with each other, the two forces counteracted and immediately fell to the ground.

Roja took advantage of this opportunity to get close to the wolf and put the moonlight machete on the demonic wolf.

Succeeded!

Roja pulled the machete fiercely, but the scene of blood and flesh flying didn't happen. His machete seemed to hit something hard, making a roar.

Damn it! There was not only one demonic wolf in his eyeshot but also one in the dark!

Roja's face turned pale with fright. The demonic wolf in front of him had already flown backward, and the other wolf appeared in the grass not far away from him. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced on his body.

Although this forest demonic wolf was not the mutated magical beast and its level was not as high as the previous one, the time it attacked was too tricky.

It pounced on Roja and bit Roja's shoulder hard.

Roja was furious. The sharp pain stimulated his nerves. The savage bear's body protection was activated in an instant and bounced the demonic wolf into the air. Then, with a wave of Roja's machete, the demonic wolf was cut in half.

But Roja didn't smile. On the contrary, his face was getting darker and darker.

The first demonic wolf was ready. Its head soared into the sky and let out a long howl.

In an instant, in the depths of the fog forest, countless wolves were howling just like it. The wolves had received the message from their companion. They were rushing towards Roja in all directions from the forest.

After the demonic wolf let out a howl, it stared at Roja with its blood-red eyes. Its scarlet tongue licked its sharp teeth as if it had imagined the scene that Roja had been devoured by it.

The daggers flew in the air. Roja threw out five daggers this time, each of which was shot at the demonic wolf from different angles by Roja while running.

The demonic wolf panicked all of a sudden. It desperately controlled the airflow to pierce the five blades into the air.

But this time, it missed.

The airflow could indeed block something, and even if Roja wanted to use the poison, the air would blow the poison away. 𝒍𝓲𝒃𝙧𝒆𝒂𝒅.𝓬𝙤𝒎

But when it resisted Roja's five daggers' attack at the same time, it would certainly slacken off for a moment. This was not a sign of underestimating the enemy, but the thinking inertia of a normal creature!

When that wisp of fragrance reached the nose of the wolf, it meant that its life had come to an end! Even God couldn't save its life!

Roja didn't dare to stay too long when he saw the body of the demonic wolf fall down stiff. He quickly put the two corpses into the storage ring.

His body jumped onto a branch and ran towards the periphery of the core area.

Chapter 51

However, this was certainly not enough. With the activation of the talent for simulation, Roja quickly changed the identity to another dead person in the process of the escape, carefully leaving his original smell.

Although if he did so, his smell would definitely be remembered by the forest demonic wolf, he couldn't care so much now. When he attacked the forest demonic wolf later, he just needed to use simulation and change his identity.

Far away from the periphery of the core area, he took out a corpse of a magical beast, simply arranged it, and rubbed the smell of his identity that he had created with his talent of simulation against that area.

The strong smell of the blood of the magical beast drifted away under the deliberate control of Roja. Before the demonic wolves found here, it would definitely attract magical beasts.

When the demonic wolves found this place, they could only find the corpses on the ground and the traces of being bitten by the magical beasts.

In this way, the scene where a person who had successfully attacked a forest demonic wolf was attacked to death by a magical beast and eaten up by the magical beasts that were attracted by the subsequent bloody smell appeared.

At this time, countless angry wolf howls were coming from the core area in the distance. The howl of the wolf king was particularly frightening. Roja didn't dare to stay too long. He imitated the identity of another person and soon hid in the forest.

He didn't dare to stay where he was and peep at whether the demonic wolves would come here or they believe the scene he had set up.

The pressure brought by the wolf king was as huge as a mountain. Roja couldn't imagine what he would look like if he was found by the angry wolves at such a short distance.

There must be no hope of escape!

After escaping from the core area, Roja ran to the middle area without looking back. It was not until he reached the edge of the middle area that he realized that his clothes had already been wet with cold sweat. His highly tensed nerves collapsed at this moment.

He fell to the ground and gasped heavily. Along the way, he had to consider speed and concealment, which made his energy decline very fast. At this time, there were only a little more than a hundred.

Pressing his dizzy head, Roja climbed up a tree. He didn't stop in the middle of the tree trunk, he stopped until he reached the top.

Then he carefully dispelled the smell that he left. 𝓁𝑖𝘣𝑟𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝑐ℴ𝘮

He needed some rest. At least the next day, he didn't want to continue hunting the magical beasts.

The two demonic wolves he had killed just now provided Roja with 300 experience points, which were even more than the result of the six magical beasts he had killed previously! It could be imagined how terrifying the demonic wolves were in the forest.

Even on the same level, the experience points the demonic wolves offered were much more than the ordinary magical beasts.

Gasping for breath, Roja looked in the direction of the core area. In the layers of fog, Roja couldn't help but stop breathing. The world seemed to have fallen into silence.

Roja felt that his heart was gripped by a huge palm, and his whole body trembled involuntarily. It was a fear of strength!

In the direction of the core area, a huge tornado rose into the sky. Even in the position of Roja, he could feel the violent tearing.

It was conceivable that if Roja still stayed in the core area, he would be torn apart by this fierce wind!

That was not the power that an ordinary magical beast could achieve. It was the authority that only the beastmaster level of the mutated magical beast could have!

Wind controlling! Compared with the talent for manipulating the fierce wind, the flow manipulation was like a child's water spear in front of it! This made Roja realize the gap between them!

Roja broke out in a cold sweat again. He finally realized how lucky he was just now. If it weren't for this opportunity, he wouldn't have escaped from the core area!

It lasted for more than ten minutes before the strong wind finally dissipated. A long howl burst out from the core area. All the people and the magical beasts who heard the howl covered their ears in pain and couldn't help but want to kneel.

This was the roar of the king in the fog forest. For people and the magical beasts of lower levels like them, it was no different from a terrifying deterrent.

However, Roja also sensed a trace of helplessness from the roar of the wolf king, which seemed to be generated for the reason that it was unable to avenge its companions.

Roja breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the scene he had set up had convinced the wolf king that his previous identity was equivalent to a dead person in the eyes of these wolves.

They wouldn't go to search for him outside the core area, nor would they slaughter the players who had entered the fog forest.

But he still had to tell Edward and others about it. After all, with their current level, they could already enter the periphery of the core area of the fog forest. It would be bad if they met the demonic wolves in the forest.

So Roja sent a message to Edward, briefly describing the appearance of the demonic wolf and reminding him to be careful.

Although Edward was curious about why Roja had something to do with the horrible roar just now, he thought about Roja's strength and didn't ask anything more. He just said that he would tell his companions to be careful.

After resting on the tree for a while, Roja finally relaxed. The joy of surviving the disaster, coupled with the surprise of killing two demonic wolves, made Roja temporarily forget the fear just now.

The explosive rate of 10% brought a level-D treasure box to Roja. He opened it without hesitation.

"Level-three items: wind badge. The user could get the affinity of the wind element. Defense +20, agility+10."

The description of this item was a little vague, but when Roja put this wind badge on his coat, he instantly understood its function.

Although the property of agility had only been increased by 10 points, Roja felt that his body was integrated with the surrounding air currents and every movement of his body was pushed by the surrounding air currents.

Although it was just a small affinity, it made Roja feel like he was integrated with the wind. It was so wonderful as if he could travel thousands of miles in the wind in an instant!

Then Roja turned to look at the two corpses of the demonic wolves he had just killed.

Chapter 52

"System, plunder."

"Plundering."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-C talent: flow manipulation."

"The two same talents automatically overlapped and evolved into the level-B talent: flow controlling."

As expected, the two same talents Roja got from the corpses of the demonic wolves overlapped automatically and evolved into a stronger flow controlling.

With the help of the wind badge, Roja's current ability to control the flow was even better than that of an ordinary forest demonic wolf. Although he couldn't compare with the wolf king, it wouldn't be tricky for him to deal with such a dangerous situation if he met an ordinary forest demonic wolf.

At this time, the chatting channel flashed. Confused, Roja opened it and saw the wailing crowd.

"Do you know that No. 666 Green-Hand Village newly announced the progress of the upgrade of the man named Galen? There are less than five hundred experience points from the next level!"

"What? How could he be so fast? We've tried our best to help Edward, but we still can't catch up with them!"

"Alas, Galen's level is higher than ours, so the level of the magical beasts he can hunt is naturally higher. In addition, they have defeated so many Green-Hand Villages before, so the resources there must be several times more than ours."

"That's right. Does that mean we are going to lose?"

"No way! This time, the amount of resources is not 20%, but half! If we lose half of the resources, how can we upgrade?"

The chat channel of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village was in chaos, but the chat channel of No. 666 Green-Hand Village was in an uproar.

Everyone was trying their best to praise Galen, and at the same time, they were also insulting the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village with all kinds of filthy words.

Roja frowned. The speed of Galen's upgrade was indeed beyond his imagination. Edward, the top-ranked warrior in their group, had not improved by half so far.

If the situation continued to maintain, there was no doubt that No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village would lose this resource gambling.

No, he couldn't go on resting. It seemed that he needed to walk inside. Only in the core area could there be a higher-level magical beast. Hunting and killing the mutated magical beasts could also get more experience points.

Roja made up his mind. He deftly bent a branch and bounced his body to the periphery of the core area with the rebound force of the trunk.

Although he had just provoked the demonic wolves in the forest, as long as he was more careful and hid his original smell, he would not be found.

He smeared the scent of the magical beast's corpse on his body, but he felt it was not safe, so he took out a beast's skin and put it on his body.

In this way, as long as he was not very close, or he took the initiative to expose himself, the magical beasts would definitely not find him.

In the air, Roja carefully activated the skill of butterfly wings to adjust his flight trajectory and searched for his target.

Soon, he found a valley.

This place was located in the middle of the core area, not far from the forest wolves.

More importantly, in such a dark valley, there must be all kinds of magical insects, they were not the food of the forest wolves, so the possibility of encountering the forest wolves was greatly reduced.

It was known that most of the magical insects living in the dark valley were highly toxic, which could be known from books and common sense.

buff

And there was a special buff named immune to all poison attacks on Roja! This meant that he didn't care about the attack of these poisonous insects at all!

Roja's body fell into the valley like a big bird. The loud noise immediately alarmed all the poisonous insects in the valley.

Roja landed in the center of the valley. Immediately, countless poisonous insects popped out their heads from every part of the valley.

Looking at the various poisons in front of him, Roja smiled happily. The level of these poisonous insects was not lower than LV14. Some of them were even several meters long.

The colorful bodies indicated the severe poison, but Roja just let the insects attack him.

Roja was constantly in a state of immune, which was caused by the attack of these poisonous magical insects. 𝘭𝑖𝘣𝓇ℯ𝘢𝒹.𝘤ℴ𝘮

On the contrary, Roja's moonlight machete had never stopped. From the top of the valley, Roja's body was like a shining moon now.

Countless blade lights came out of the huge light ball and cut the bodies of the poisonous insects into pieces.

With the talent of flow controlling, Roja's battle became more smooth. His body floated in the valley like the wind, and those poisonous insects would die miserably under Roja's knife before they could even launch their own attacks.

Layers upon layers of poisonous blood splashed on the ground of the valley. This valley with countless highly toxic magical beasts had never encountered such a tragic scene since its existence.

But now, it was the end of the poisonous magical insects!

Bottles after bottles of venom spilled out from Roja's hands. Although the venom of the magical insects was ineffective to Roja, the venom made by Roja was fatal to the magical beasts!

Because of their habits, they all had a strong sense of intimacy with these poisons. However, when they wanted to absorb these poisons to strengthen themselves according to their habits, they would be killed by the fragrant venom.

"Ladies and gentlemen in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, we're going to announce it again. Mr. Galen is only 100 experience points away from being promoted to the next level! You will definitely lose this resource gambling!"

The No. 666 Green-Hand Village was still complacent, but now the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village had no time to talk to them. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the ranking list.

On the ranking list, each person's name was followed by their own level and their own experience. Since more than ten minutes ago, Roja's experience base had risen rapidly like a rocket.

The rapid growth made everyone forget their own business and stare at the experience bar after Roja's name.

"Oh my God! What on earth has Roja done? His experience."

"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid a few minutes will be enough!"

"Oh my God! Please tell me, what I saw is true! Am I really dreaming?"

All kinds of voices quickly flashed through the chat channel of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. Now, all the eyes of the Green-Hand Village were focused on Roja!

Chapter 53

"Our Galen is about to reach the next level! He only needs 100 experience points! Are you ready for your failure?"

No. 666 Green-Hand Village made a bluster, but it didn't attract anyone's attention on the regional chat channel. In other words, only No. 666 Green-Hand Village and other spectators were still watching the regional chat channel.

"No, what's going on? These bugs should have jumped out and scolded us. Where are they now?"

"I guess they have already accepted the fate of failure. Maybe they are trembling with fear now!"

"That's right. After all, Galen is the best! It's time for them to see the end!"

The people of No. 666 Green-Hand Village were discussing happily as if they had won.

The original victory should belong to No. 666 Green-Hand Village. At this moment, Galen was hunting the last magical beast. As long as he cut off the throat of the magical beast, he could get the 100 experience points and upgrade to the next level.

However, when his machete was just pressed against the throat of the magical beast, a sound suddenly fell from the sky.

"Roja in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village has been promoted to LV15. No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village won the resources gambling!"

"All resources of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village doubled, and everyone's attribute increased by 20 points. All the resources of No. 666 Green-Hand Village were reduced by half, and the attribute was deducted by 20 points."

"Roja took the lead in the upgrade. Roja won, and he will be rewarded with an extra 50 points and a level-C treasure box."

Galen felt that his strength was suddenly flowing away, and even the magical beast, which was about to be cut off its throat by him disappeared.

It was impossible. How could he lose! It was obvious that the people in the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village were a group of losers. Their grades were lower than his, and even the time they entered the regional chat channel was far behind theirs. How could someone upgrade so fast!

Galen suddenly knelt on the ground. He felt dizzy and didn't dare to accept the fact.

The No. 666 Green-Hand Village also wailed. Many people watched Galen fall down one step away from victory. They couldn't accept such a result!

However, in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, the atmosphere was somewhat quiet now. Even the chatting channel, which was usually filled with all kinds of messages, was quiet.

Roja's upgrade was incredibly fast. When they were about to lose, he could even make vigorous efforts to turn the tide, which made many people feel unreal.

"We should have won, right? Do you also feel like dreaming?"

"Yes, I also think I'm dreaming. Who can pinch me so that I can wake up from this dream?"

"My dear God, if it's a dream, please let me wake up as soon as possible. The dream is so beautiful that I'm afraid I can't bear it in reality."

After a long time, there were only a few words expressing their unreality.

Edward rubbed his temples with a bitter smile and typed a sentence on the chat channel.

"Well, stop sighing about the dream. There will only be one Roja and one world. We are not in a dream now but reality."

With Edward's words, the whole chat channel began to boil, and the cheering crowd could be seen everywhere.

In this Green-Hand Village, which had been doubled in size, it would be easier for them to upgrade and obtain resources in the future.

"Oh my God! I really want to marry Roja. He is so handsome, powerful and elegant! This is the second time he has created a miracle!"

"I declare that from now on, Roja is my star! I hope that Roja can always guide me in the direction of development! Let's cheer for Roja together!"

"Mr. Roja, please say something. Everyone wants to know how you got the upgrade!"

"Yeah, yeah. I've never heard of such a speed before. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, no one would believe it, right?"

"Where is Roja? We have talked for a long time. Why didn't we see him?"

"Look, Roja's experience bar is still rising! He must be still hunting the magical beasts!"

Indeed, Roja's experience bar didn't slow down but increased even faster. 𝓵𝙞𝒃𝓻𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

All the resources were doubled. Although he had killed more than half of the poisonous magical insects in the valley where Roja was, they were immediately added back when the resources were doubled.

Roja seemed to face more enemies at the same time, so he should be in a dangerous situation. But in fact, after he was promoted to another level, Roja only felt happy now.

The poisonous magical insects could not stop his body at all. Under the moonlight machete, countless poisonous magical insects were divided into two parts.

Roja didn't stop killing until the sunset and the moon rose. At this moment, there were corpses all over the valley, and no magical beasts or poisonous insects could survive and run away under Roja's knife.

The valley full of toxins was slaughtered by Roja within one day!

He stood in the valley and looked up at the sky. He felt as if his body was rising with the wind and rising straight into the sky!

Now his level was only less than half of that experience points to the LV16. With his current ability, as long as he didn't meet the demonic wolf king face to face, he was confident to retreat.

From the bodies of these poisonous insects, Roja had plundered dozens of different talents. Most of their talents were related to toxins. After plundering, they actually pushed Roja's venom-strengthening talent to level B!

And the various treasure boxes attracted Roja's attention.

However, it was obvious that he couldn't wear all these things. In the end, he only chose the level-three item venom gloves and put them on his hands.

After comparing the other items, Roja found that they were not as practical as his original suit.

Although there were many items with strong poison and they would certainly become very powerful weapons in the battle, they were not suitable for Roja's way of fighting, and the properties and skills they provided were not as good as the savage bear suit, so he didn't change.

Roja stretched himself, but he didn't feel tired. Instead, he felt very excited.

Why didn't he go to the location of the wolves in the forest again? Maybe he could find something unexpected at night.

Chapter 54

Roja thought. He didn't check the chat channel at all. Now all his attention was on the magical beasts.

On the way to the core area, Roja became bolder this time. In less than half an hour, he arrived at the place where the wolves inhabited the forest before.

Simulation talent activated. Roja changed his breath and completely became another person. He peeled off the skin from the forest demonic wolf he had hunted before and put it on himself. Then he slowly approached the core area.

He held his breath. Under the moonlight, hundreds of giant wolves were lying on the grassland. Under the cover of the fog, this group of giant wolves was like demons in an abyss. It seemed that it was not too much to call them hell.

Even now, when Roja saw these wolves, he still had a creepy feeling. The roar of the forest wolf king still echoed in his mind.

But now most of the wolves in the forest had entered a state of laziness.

Although their companions had just been killed this morning, in this jungle where the weak were the prey of the strong, no magical beasts would be as fragile as human beings because of their companions' death.

The scale of the wolves doubled as the resources, which gave Roja a headache.

In that case, wouldn't it be more difficult for him to carry out his task?

However, with more magical beasts and more resources, it was not a bad thing. The task was difficult. He only needed to improve his strength before carrying out it. His purpose this time was not to hunt down the wolf king but to find some flaws that could kill the wolves.

After defeating No. 666 Green-Hand Village, it seemed that other Green-Hand Villages who were hostile to No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village would also be quiet for a while.

He could take advantage of this opportunity to hunt the demonic wolves to improve his strength, and at the same time find a way to enter the dark castle to have a look.

In fact, the core of the fog forest where the forest wolves were located was a huge basin. Such a terrain could better gather heat and provide a comfortable living environment for the forest wolves.

After observing the terrain, Roja suddenly came up with a solution, which was enough to kill the wolves.

If possible, he could set up traps around the basin. When the wolves slacked off, he could kill them all with poison.

Even a strong wolf king couldn't be completely immune to poison attacks, could it?

Thinking of this, Roja couldn't help but rub his hands excitedly. The last time he came here, he was too hasty and careful. Otherwise, the wolves' defense of the first attack should be the smallest and he could get the biggest harvest.

Lowering his body, Roja left quietly. Although he had made a plan, it was not the time to implement it.

The basin in the core area was large. If Roja wanted to completely cover it with poison, he couldn't do it only by his current means.

If he was given some time to prepare, he was 100% sure that the poison would turn the core area into a land of death!

In the past, although Roja could refine strong venom, he could not say that he could definitely kill the beastmaster-level mutated magical beast who was much stronger than him with the poison.

But don't forget that Roja had just swept through a valley full of poisonous insects. Now, the venom Roja had grasped must be unique in both quantity and species!

Venom-strengthening talent activated. Roja mixed these hundreds of poisons.

The severe poison reaction made Roja's eyebrows twitch. He saw the poisonous gas slowly rise and even corrode the fog that never dissipated all year round in the fog forest.

This was not only the poison within the scope of normal people's comprehension but also a peerless poison that could really cause a change in the natural environment!

Then Roja took some materials here and made some simple throwing tools. With simple control, he could trigger the mechanism and bounce the special medicine a hundred meters away.

Of course, these things were all made by Roja using the bones and muscles of the magical beasts. If not, how could he achieve such a far throw effect only by a simple mechanism?

When Roja finished all this, it was already dawn. He put all the things in front of him into the storage ring, and a satisfied smile appeared on Roja's face.

During the daytime, the wolves would go hunting at the junction of the middle layer of the fog forest and the core area. Roja had already known it when he came last time.

This time, Roja waited patiently until the wolves left.

Roja had found the two demonic wolves, one was in view and the other was concealed. Perhaps because of the last attack, the wolf king became alert. The two giant wolves left this time were obviously much stronger than the last time.

But Roja wouldn't alert them or hunt them.

His purpose was to capture all the wolves. If he killed these two demonic wolves now, although he would get some benefits, it would definitely arouse the vigilance of the wolves. When the night fell, his action would not be so smooth.

Although the two demonic wolves had received the previous warning, they were very nervous all day long and paid attention to the changes around them all the time.

However, under Roja's disguise, the two demonic wolves didn't find any clues at all. They just thought it was a peaceful day.

As the dusk fell, Roja heard the sound of wolves. It was the wolf king who had brought the wolves back.

A strong smell of the blood rushed straight to the forehead of Roja. The magical beast brought back by these demonic wolves was several times larger than them, but they easily bit it and dragged it to the ground.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the sentry of the demonic wolves arranged by it, the wolf king seemed to be very happy and began to eat with the wolves.

Hundreds of demonic wolves ate from dusk to midnight.

They even threw all the bones they had eaten out of the core area.

When the demonic wolves snuggled up in groups and enjoyed the pleasant time after enjoying their meal, they didn't know that the door of hell had been slowly opened for them, waiting for them to step in. 𝒍𝙞𝙗𝒓𝒆𝙖𝓭.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Roja's body shuttled through the bushes like a ghost, grasping every throwing device in his hand.

Chapter 55

The wolf king curled up into a ball. Even this king in the fog forest needed a rest. It was still a beast, longing for warm fur and grass.

The long-term peace and warmth in the core area of the fog forest paralyzed its nerves. Under the gentle wind, the wolf king was sleepy.

It was the king here, and their race was the pinnacle of the fog forest. No one would dare to come here to assault them, and no magical beasts would dare to do so!

Yesterday, it was just a small accident. The human who accidentally entered here killed two weaker demonic wolves with his strength. 𝙡𝒊𝓫𝓻𝓮𝙖𝙙.𝓬𝒐𝙢

'But that human was also seriously injured. He was swallowed by the magical beast when he escaped. So that must be an accident. We are still the peak group in this fog forest!'

With this thought, the wolf king slowly closed its eyes, buried his nose in the warm fur, breathed the familiar smell of the forest, and slowly fell asleep.

With the enhancement of the visual mutation talent, Roja keenly captured the state of the wolf king. He was so happy that his mouth could not close. This was a heaven-sent opportunity for him!

But he needed to move forward a little bit, and only a little bit would be enough!

Roja bent down and slowly crawled forward along the grass. He didn't stop until he was several hundred meters away from the wolves.

Roja had been spotted at this distance last time, so he wouldn't move forward rashly. This position was enough!

The body of the wolf king appeared in front of him. Although there were hundreds of demonic wolves in the middle, it was not a hindrance to Roja at all!

Dream illusion talent aimed at a single target. As long as the target was within the range of his control, even if he didn't touch the target, it could completely fall into the illusion!

What Roja wanted was to make the strongest wolf king unable to play the role when its race was in chaos!

The wolf king was immersed in its sleep as if it had come to a kingdom that only belonged to it. There was everything it dreamed of, warm grass, warm wind and bright sunshine.

Intoxicated in it, it took a walk leisurely with its four claws. It couldn't remember how long it hadn't enjoyed such a leisurely time. Ever since it was born in the mist forest, it had been living a bloody life every day, and it had never been so relieved.

Roja smiled. Looking at the state of the wolf king, he knew that no matter how ferocious and cunning the wolf king was, it could only indulge itself in its dream after hitting his dream illusion.

After all, the magical beast was only the magical beast, not a human, nor was it as highly resistant as Roja. For them, after being attacked by such illusory skills, they were basically at the mercy of others.

Now, Roja could rest assured to carry out his plan boldly.

He gently triggered all the triggers in his hand, and with a whistling sound, all the demonic wolves raised their heads. They suddenly turned from a leisurely state to a fighting state, vigilantly searching for the intruders.

However, they didn't find anything alive. Instead, they saw countless bottles falling from the high sky.

At this moment, all the demonic wolves were confused. If there was a magical beast or a human sneak attack, they would not be so surprised. But now, these bottles falling from the sky made them at a loss.

The fragrance of the broken bottles soon spread to the whole pack of wolves along with the wind in the basin.

To their surprise, when their bodies touched the fragrance, they became soft and feeble in an instant. They just wanted to have a rest, but when they fell down, their bodies had already turned into dust.

The shrill howls of wolves echoed in the basin. In a flash, more than a dozen demonic wolves turned into ashes.

However, the resistance of these demonic wolves was really beyond Roja's expectations. Although those demonic wolves above LV16 were also poisoned, they did not immediately turn into ashes like other demonic wolves.

Although they had become sluggish and their fighting capacity had been greatly reduced, they were still dragging the wolf king that was still in its dream, desperately fleeing.

Many demonic wolves had come to their senses. They activated their talent, manipulated the flow, and tried to drive the venom out of the basin.

It had to be said that the wind wolves could somehow restrain Roja's poison. As long as they could successfully move the venom out of the basin, they could avoid being killed by the venom.

Roja pulled out the moonlight machete. Of course, it was impossible for him to watch these wolves interrupt his plan so smoothly.

Roja jumped up from the grass quickly. He waved the machete in his hand left and right, and a circular wheel of light formed around his body. Those weak demonic wolves were unable to resist Roja's attack at all. In an instant, they were divided into two parts.

Although some of the venoms had been dispersed by the demonic wolves, their efforts were almost unbearable in front of Roja's high-level talent for flow controlling.

The huge poisonous clouds were blown by Roja and continued to chase the demonic wolves.

The wolf king only felt that its body became very light, and it seemed to smell a faint fragrance in its nose. Although its intuition told it that it was the fragrance of flowers, it sensed that something was wrong.

After all, it was the beastmaster of the mutated magical beast. When the clear fragrance became thicker and thicker, it finally sensed something unusual.

An angry roar came from its mouth. At this moment, the demonic wolf king finally broke free from Roja's dream.

Roja grinned. He was still a little slow. The worst situation had happened. The demonic wolf king had broken away from his control. Now he could only fight against the wolf king head-on!

A terrifying whirlwind rose into the sky. In front of the talent of the wolf king's wind controlling, Roja's venom instantly lifted to the sky and then turned into nothingness in the violent wind.

The wolf king licked its white teeth and let out a horrible howl at Roja.

It was like a heavy hammer hitting Roja's chest, making his heart tremble involuntarily.

Chapter 56

He stumbled back two steps and supported himself with the moonlight machete in his hand to prevent himself from falling.

"Yes, you are indeed a beastmaster! I am too naive to trap you with a dream illusion! But if you want to frighten me, you are not qualified! Let us have a competition. Who is the real fear?"

Roja released a strong black aura. At this moment, he was like an emissary who came over in the dark night. His whole body was hidden in the darkness, except his eyes.

He pointed at wolf king.

At this moment, a great sense of crisis suddenly shrouded the wolf king. Even though it was already the beastmaster in the fog forest, it still felt the piercing danger!

A sharp wolf's howl burst out from its mouth. At this time, it did not want to lead its fellow race to escape. It was a beastmaster, so it couldn't dodge even when it was threatened. Otherwise, how could it be so dignified?

Dark erosion has already been activated when the wolf king howls. The surging black gas, like waves, collided with the wolves.

A dark shadow appeared on each wolf's body, covering its fur. What made these wolves really afraid was the change in their blood vitality and energy. The moment they were hit, these two values began to fall rapidly. 𝒍𝒊𝙗𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅.𝓬𝒐𝓶

Even their level was falling like a cliff.

The magical beasts, who lived in the depths of the fog forest, had never seen such a talent that could deprive one's talent. For a moment, all of them were in a panic, and even the wolf king, standing in the front, trembled with fear.

It was really scared. The reason why it could become the beastmaster in the fog forest was because of its powerful strength. But now, the strength that it relied on to survive was gradually fading away, so how could it not be frightened.

Just as it was hesitating whether it should escape or continue to attack Roja, a deafening roar suddenly came into its mind.

That was night roar. The talent was activated at the right time. The wolf king felt that its mind was in a mess as if many demons popped out and tore its nerves, trying to completely smash it.

The effect of fear made the wolf king unable to continue to hesitate. The threat of death made this proud master give up its dignity at this moment.

With a difficult howl, it fled the valley with its own race.

Roja didn't chase after them but sat on the floor.

It was obvious that night roar couldn't cause the effect of fear on the wolf king.

At the moment of activating his talent, Roja chose to add the suppressing effect of sacred blood, which was unexpected.

And the cost was obvious. After the effects of skipping a level, Roja's own energy fell sharply, and even his talent for simulation couldn't hold on any longer.

In this case, there was no way for Roja to continue to attack. But this time, he had achieved enough.

Hundreds of demonic wolves were killed by him in this attack. When the wolf king escaped, there were less than one hundred wolves following it.

Moreover, they were hit by the dark erosion!

In other words, for a long time in the future, this group of demonic wolves could only endure the falling blood vitality, and energy as well as the disappearing strength.

The growth of the magical beasts was different from that of human beings. After their strength dissipated, it was impossible for them to recover quickly by hunting other magical beasts like human beings. They could only accumulate gradually over a long time.

As long as Roja regained his energy, he could continue to chase the wolf king. At that time, the strength of the wolf king had been consumed a lot, and Roja could easily complete the task.

Roja didn't want to continue, so he lay down in the basin.

This was the habitat of the demonic wolves, and no other magical beasts dared to approach this area. Now that all the demonic wolves had been driven away by Roja, this became the safest place.

It was not until then that he noticed that Edward's profile picture was constantly shaking.

Roja's brows furrowed as he clicked on the chat channel. His good mood after killing the demonic wolves faded away.

"Roja, are you there? Another resource gambling was launched by a Green-Hand Village. It's No. 7274 Green-Hand Village. According to what I've learned, they entered the regional chat system almost at the same time as No. 666 Green-Hand Village."

"The other Green-Hand Village players said that the No. 7274 Green-Hand Village also did this to them. In addition to the No. 7274 Green-Hand Village, there are several other Green-Hand Villages who are also preparing to gamble with us."

Roja sighed and pinched between his eyebrows. It seemed that he had been too naive to think that the Green-Hand Villages in the regional chat channel were friendly.

There was no lack of such aggressive people at any time.

Although he hadn't received the announcement of the beginning of the resources gambling, he thought that since No. 7274 Green-Hand Village and No. 666 Green-Hand Village were the same kind of people, it wouldn't be long.

Looking at the regional chat channel, there were not only the arrogant speech of No. 7274 Green-Hand Village but also many fierce provocations from other Green-Hand Villages, who were in collusion with No. 7274 Green-Hand Village.

What was more, No. 666 Green-Hand Village that they defeated was also labeled as a shame, was being humiliated together.

Although the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village tried their best to fight back, they were not reasonable at all, and it was difficult for them to gain the upper hand in a short time.

Roja snorted and tapped on the chat channel with a cold face.

"No. 7274 Green-Hand Village, right? Now that you want to do that resources gambling, come on. I'm just worried that the resources are not enough, and the magical beasts are not enough to kill. I hope you can struggle as much as you want in the gamble because no matter what you do, you will definitely lose in the end."

This was the first time that Roja had spoken on the regional chat channel, and as the strongest speaker of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, he threw a big bomb on the whole chatting channel.

Roja didn't care about the shock that his arrogant words brought to the other Green-Hand Villages.

In other words, he didn't want to care about the feelings of these Green-Hand Villages anymore.

The law of the jungle. Since they already had the idea of plundering others, they should also be prepared to be plundered!

Chapter 57

"Roja is too arrogant! How dare he provokes our great Mr. Toby?"

"Toby, let's start the resource gambling now. Let these wild monkeys know how powerful we are!"

"Humph, Toby, if you fail, let us avenge you! Let this arrogant guy know the consequences of being arrogant and talking nonsense!"

The whole chat channel was in an uproar. Many people's eyes were focused on Roja and No. 7274 Green-Hand Village. It was the response of the strongest person in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village! The quarrel was naturally different from that in normal times.

"Roja, are you too bold this time? We are already in an awkward situation. If you say so, more people will gamble on our resources, right?"

Edward said to Roja with a headache. Although he trusted Roja very much, he was still a little dissatisfied that Roja's action aroused hostility.

"Edward, I know you are a gentleman. You don't want to make enemies at will. But now, they have bullied us. If we continue to be cowards, what about dignity?"

Roja's words were full of anger.

"They are right. This is the world of slaughter. If we don't plunder others, we will only be plundered by others. We won't take the initiative to invade the friendly Green-Hand Villages. But for these people, these plunderers! We will let them taste the feeling of being plundered! We will let them know their sins!"

Now that he had said that, Edward had to admit that what Roja said was right even if he was unwilling to do so.

"Well, if you need any help, just tell us earlier. I know you always like to fight alone, but if you face such a large-scale enemy, it will be difficult for you to fight alone."

Roja sent a smiling face emoji to Edward. He was not a fool. He wouldn't hide anything when he needed help.

The resource gambling was not only his business but also the matter of the whole Green-Hand Village. He was not that stupid to put all the blame on himself.

At this moment, the mysterious voice echoed in the night sky again.

"Emergency announcement: No. 7274 Green-Hand Village has launched a gambling order, forcibly connected to No. 10002548 Green-Hand Village, and activated the resource gambling!"

"The resource gambling: if one fails, all the resources will be reduced by half, and everyone's attribute will be weakened by 20 points. As for the winner, all the resources would be doubled, and everyone would have 20 more attributes."

"The content of this competition: one of the strongest players of the two Green-Hand Villages who rises to the next level in advance wins this gambling."

"The first to reach the next level wins and will be rewarded with an extra 50 points of nature and a level-C treasure box."

"The chat channels of the two Green-Hand Villages are connected in parallel." 𝓵𝙞𝒃𝓻𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

"During the gambling, the ranking list of the two Green-Hand Village players is temporarily blocked."

Here they were! No. 7274 Green-Hand Village did what they said. They started resource gambling so soon.

Roja sneered. He was not afraid that No. 7274 Green-Hand Village would start a resource gambling, but he was afraid that these guys would not dare to come.

He had already seen the benefits of expanding resources. Since the development of Green-Hand Village was bound to plunder other people's resources, it would be a better choice to let these arrogant Green-Hand Villages that plundered other people's resources suffer a great loss.

When the wolves retreated, they left their smell. Unlike Roja, they didn't have the talent to hide their breath, nor did they have the wisdom like humans to set up a scene that could deceive the real.

So Roja easily found the direction of the retreat of the demonic wolves. His body was quietly attached to the shadow, and he chased in the direction of the retreat of the demonic wolves.

Roja was confident that he could reach the next level before No. 7274 Green-Hand Village, because he had the huge resources of the demonic wolves.

More than a hundred low-level demonic wolves were enough to push him up one level, not to mention the high-level demonic wolves, including the wolf king.

"No. 7274 Green-Hand Village gambles again. With the experience of No. 666 Green-Hand Village, maybe they gamble with us because it is about the time for them to upgrade, right?"

"No, it's too short. They shouldn't have enough time to accumulate so much experience."

"Yes, that's true. The last resource gambling has proved that system is fairly fair. I don't think it will cause that kind of situation, right?"

"Roja, come on. We are all your strong backing. If you need any help, just let us know. We promise we will come to you without hesitation!"

"It's not Roja's own business to gamble with resources. We should try our best!"

"Mr. Roja has helped our Green-Hand Village so many times. It's our turn to help him this time!"

Roja looked at the comments on the chat channel and couldn't help smiling. He sent a message on the channel.

"Thank you for your concern. If there is any need, I will tell you. But before that, you have to work hard on the upgrade. Don't waste the double resources."

The chatting channel was full of joy. As if they had received an order, they swarmed into the gathering area of the magical beasts, trying their best to raise their level.

At this time, Roja had quietly come to the back of the demonic wolves, far following these exhausting wolves.

Although Roja could launch an attack now, he didn't want to do so.

Although the wolves were very tired now, they still had a strong battle ability, and their spirit did not ease from the battle just now.

He had to wait for the wolves to relax. Only when their energy dropped to the extreme could Roja's sneak attack succeed.

The cleverness of the wolf king was far beyond that of an ordinary demonic wolf. If it was in danger, it would definitely trap him with the wolves and then run away first.

On the contrary, if he killed the wolf king from the very beginning, the rest of the wolves would lose their leader, waiting to be killed.

Roja was right. Now the wolves were about to reach their limits. The tense atmosphere was torturing them. They urgently needed to find a place to rest and relax.

Chapter 58

Finally, the wolves found a place they thought was safe. Although this was the edge of the core area, the fog was extremely thick, and it had almost reached the limit of the wolves' vision.

If it weren't for this time that they imminently need a place to relax, they wouldn't have come here.

But what the wolves didn't know was that Roja had followed them silently for a long time. They thought that they seemed to have shaken off the terrible plague. Now they could be bold and relaxed.

As soon as they entered the thick fog, the wolves couldn't wait to lie on the ground, licking their fur and stretching their nervous bodies and nerves.

The dark erosion made their blood vitality and energy drop sharply. They had no choice but to relax in this way.

Moreover, they could only rest for a short time. Due to the lack of blood vitality, they had to go out to eat, so that they could maintain their physiological consumption.

Roja was waiting for this opportunity. He couldn't let the wolves kill the magical beasts to replenish their blood vitality.

Seeing that the wolf king had curled up and hidden in the wolves, he knew that it was time for him to move!

The wolves became restless. They could feel a huge threat approaching them, but the thick fog made them unable to tell where this threat came from and what it was from.

A ball of dim light lit up in front of the wolves. The wolves, which had just suffered the darkness erosion, suddenly rioted. They scrambled to escape from the light.

But how could they be faster than Roja?

Illusory shock skill activated. The light ball released by Roja broke through the fog and formed a surging shock wave.

The demonic wolves, enveloped by the light, suddenly felt that their brains were blurred. Although they were still sober and wanted to resist, they didn't have the strength at all.

The illusory shock forced them into the illusion. They knew where they were and what they were doing, but their bodies wouldn't listen to their control. Their spirits had fallen to a critical point.

Even the wolf king already had consumed a lot of energy. When the dark erosion started, it stood in front of the wolves and suffered the most.

After lying on the ground for a while, the wolf king had fallen asleep. Now it was attacked by the illusory shock again. It fell into the illusion in its sweet dream.

All the wolves stood still like wood, and Roja seized the opportunity and rushed out, waving the moonlight machete.

The blood and flesh flew in all directions, and the sound of the flesh and hair being torn could be heard continuously.

With the help of Roja's skill, more than half of the one hundred demonic wolves fell into the illusion. As for Roja, his body was as fast as a beam of light, and even those sober demonic wolves couldn't capture his body.

Ten seconds passed quickly. Except for the wolf king, almost all the demonic wolves trapped in the illusions were killed by Roja, the blood was all over the ground.

Roja, on the other hand, felt a little unsatisfied. He raised the moonlight machete with both hands and slashed at the wolf king's head.

A strong wind swept up, and a strong air burst out from the mouth of the wolf king. It hit Roja's arm and threw Roja high up.

That was the wind controlling. Even Roja couldn't resist the talent of the wolf king. He could only activate the butterfly wings in the air and turn over, trying to fall to the ground.

At this moment, a hurricane gathered under Roja's feet. Each gale was like a sharp blade, spinning and cutting towards Roja.

The wind blade! The wolf king had actually infused his skills into its talent, using the wind blade to create hurricanes. 𝒍𝒊𝒃𝓻𝒆𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝙤𝒎

After this hurricane, the wolf king did not continue to chase, but turned around and ran away. At the same time, the remaining demonic wolves also surrounded him.

"Damn it! The wolf king is going to run away!"

Roja had thought that his body would be attacked by the hurricane, but he didn't expect that his body would only be like a leaf following the wind in the hurricane.

And on his body, a badge was shining.

The wind badge! This item worked unexpectedly. It not only protected Roja from being hurt in the hurricane but also gave Roja a chance to control his body!

The demonic wolves pounced on Roja, trying to kill Roja in the hurricane. But when they approached, they were frightened to find that this human was not controlled by the hurricane at all. Instead, he was like a duck to water in the hurricane.

But they were already in the air. Even if they had found something wrong with Roja, they couldn't change their movements.

Although the flow controlling could help them to control and change the direction of the airflow to a certain extent, the effect was very small for themselves. It was impossible to lift their bodies.

As a result, the demonic wolves suffered a tragedy. In the hurricane, Roja used the power of the wind to float, and the moonlight machete had already crossed the bodies of the demonic wolves.

The blood flowed along with the hurricane, and the flesh and blood were in a mess. The bodies of these more than a dozen demonic wolves were stirred into muddy flesh in an instant.

While the wolf king was escaping, it turned its head and saw more than a dozen of its fellows die miserably in an instant, and a miserable wolf's howl burst out from its mouth.

However, it did not stop. It knew that this human being like the God of death would definitely come to it after killing its kind!

It ran as fast as it could and plunged into the fog forest in a panic. The once king of the fog forest was like a stray dog at this moment!

Roja, of course, wouldn't let go of the wolf king. In midair, he had already locked the position of the wolf king. With the power of the hurricane and the effect of the flow controlling, Roja flew more than a hundred meters away.

The moment he fell to the ground, his right leg hit the ground hard and his whole body shot out like a cannonball.

The wolf king only felt a gust of cold wind rapidly approaching it from behind as if it was about to pierce through its soul!

Chapter 59

At No. 7274 Green-Hand Village, on a vast grassland, Toby was sitting on the ground and looking up at the sky.

"Toby, what are you thinking about? Are you still worried that those monkeys will take your victory?"

A man in a suit stood beside Toby. In this world of killing, this man's strength was definitely extraordinary since he could refine his equipment as the look of these on the earth.

But he was respectful to Toby.

"Andre, I'm not worried that those monkeys will take my victory. I'm just wondering if we have the chance to challenge that person after we win the resource gambling."

Toby said like self-talk. He was not in a hurry to upgrade.

From the beginning of this resource gambling, there had been a lot of people sending the dying magical beasts to him. He only needed to use a simple knife to kill the magical beasts.

He was a nobleman and enjoyed a high position in No. 7274 Green-Hand Village. As long as he wanted to say something, someone would send the magical beasts to him.

After the start of the gambling, his experience points had increased by a lot, and now there were only two hundred or three hundred experience points left before it reached the next level.

Moreover, the people of No. 7274 Green-Hand Village had already subdued two dying magical beasts and were quickly sent to him. He would be promoted to the next level in a few minutes.

"Are you talking about Sphinx? You are powerful, so there is no problem. Although there is still a gap in the level, you have a secret weapon!"

Andre said respectfully. There was fanaticism in his eyes, which was his strong confidence in Toby.

"Well, you don't have to flatter me. I know the gap between me and Sphinx. Although I have a level-A talent, that guy is a real monster." 𝓵𝙞𝒃𝓻𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Toby waved his hand. Although he said so, he looked very proud. It could be seen that he was very confident in his own strength.

"Andre, do you know there is a custom in Japan called seppuku? It's the way that those Japanese use to express their determination and apologize."

Toby's question left Andre in a daze. He wasn't sure what Toby is going to do, then he asked.

"Yes, I know. But what does it have to do with now?"

Toby took out a delicate dagger from his backpack and handed it to Andre.

Andre took the dagger and looked at Toby in confusion. For a moment, he didn't know where to put his hand.

"I will definitely win this time. This is the first step for me to conquer the big region. After this time, the No. 7274 Green-Hand Village will be expanded to six times the original number!"

"My dignity doesn't allow me to lose to a Green-Hand Village who has just entered the region. And I don't allow a small bug to stop me. So if I lose this time, please commit seppuku to me!"

Andre's mouth was wide open. He didn't expect that Toby would make such a decision this time and he would say that he wanted to commit seppuku if he lost!

"You don't have to be confused or ask me. This is my decision. You just need to carry it out."

Toby waved his hand. He stood up and took out his weapon. The chatting system showed that his people had sent the magical beasts to the place near him. He only needed to wave his knife to win the game.

Almost at the same time, Roja stabbed the moonlight machete into the wolf king's mouth. No matter how fast the wolf king reacted, it couldn't stop this fatal injury.

Although the moment it spat out blood, the surrounding violent storms surged and the mournful storms roared, its life energy was still constantly fading away.

As the blood flowed out, circles of white light began to seep from its body. The white lights converged and fell on Roja's body.

This was the LV17 mutated demonic wolf king! The experience it provided could be described as a massive amount!

In the blink of an eye, Roja was promoted to LV16! And the experience points rose more than a hundred before slowly stopping.

Roja's machete was slowly pulled down from the top and cut open the demonic wolf's hard fur. He opened the chest of it.

In the badly mutilated chest, a heart shining with the gem light was beating fast. Although the demonic wolf was dead, this heart did not stop beating.

Roja held the heart in his hand and felt its rhythm in it.

He knew that if he cut open this heart and drank the blood right now, he would definitely obtain an extremely great improvement. But this was the heart that the task required. Before completing that task, he had to keep this heart.

"Task completion notice: congratulations to Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village for obtaining the heart of the wolf king. The progress of the task is 1/5. The next target was the tiger king. It was suggested that 10 strong men above LV18 should team up."

"Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village was the first to be promoted to LV16. No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village won the resources gambling!"

"All the resources of No. 1002548, Green-Hand Village doubled, everyone's attribute increased by 20 points. All the resources of No. 7274 Green-Hand Village were reduced by half, and the attribute was deducted by 20 points."

"Roja took the lead in the upgrade and won. He will be rewarded with an extra 50 points and a level-C treasure box."

The notice and announcement appeared almost one after another, and the whole No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village was in a jubilant mood.

It was like a gift from God. From the beginning of resource gambling to the victory of resource gambling. It had only been a little more than one day, but Roja had completed the upgrade and defeated No. 7274 Green-Hand Village!

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would have believed that the speed of upgrade could really exist.

Such a fast winning speed of upgrade could be said to be the only one in the entire Green-Hand Village region!

Edward, the former No.1 of Green-Hand Village, was also stunned at the scene. He could only shake his head with a bitter smile.

"Haha, just a few days ago, I was still the first in the entire Green-Hand Village. But now? I'm afraid that in two or three more days, I might be surpassed by Roja two or three levels."

Chapter 60

In No. 7274 Green-Hand Village, two magical beasts had been sent to Toby, but he had no intention of hunting.

His lips trembled uncontrollably because of anger. The men who sent the magical beasts to Toby knelt on the ground, trembling all over. They didn't even dare to look up at Toby.

"Good! What a good Roja! I can't believe that he has the ability to compete with me for the upgrade! That's great!"

Toby smiled crazily. He didn't know if he was too angry or he was irritated by the sudden failure.

He grabbed the man kneeling on the ground in front of him fiercely and forced him with his fierce eyes.

"Why did your magical beasts come so late? Don't you know that this is gambling about the resources of our Green-Hand Village? It's all your fault. It's all your slow action that makes us fail!"

Those people were even more scared, especially the one whose neck was grabbed by Toby. His voice trembled and he didn't know where to look.

"But, sir, it's, it's not our fault. These two magical beasts are both LV16. It's already very difficult for us to subdue them. We can't do anything about it now. We've tried our best. We have lost a total of ten people to hunt these two magical beasts!"

Toby felt annoyed and slapped hard on the man's face, and the latter's face immediately swelled up. He collapsed to the ground and dared not say a word.

"Humph! How dare these despicable people to hinder my victory! They are unforgivable!"

Toby glared at the dagger in Andre's hand, gnashing his teeth.

"Ah. Mr. Toby, didn't you say that if you couldn't win, you would. Need me to commit seppuku for you now?"

As for Andre's words, Toby's reaction was to punch hard in Andre's face. Caught off guard, he fell to the ground with a nosebleed, but he didn't dare to say a word of complaint.

"Roja, I'll remember him! It's impossible for Green-Hand Village to be confined all the time. Now that there is a regional chat channel, all Green-Hand Villages will be in parallel in the future! I'll definitely take revenge on you at that time!"

Toby roared, looking up at the sky.

Of course, Roja wouldn't know Toby's angry roar. He was in a good mood now, grinning from ear to ear.

After killing the wolf king, a level-B treasure box fell, and Roja opened a level-three item from it.

"Level-three items: Wolf soul cloak. It appeared after killing the wolf king, and there was only one in each Green-Hand Village. The wearer could gain the power of the wolf king, and at the same time, he could become the wolf king. The duration was five minutes. Time of cooling down: Two hours." 𝘭𝑖𝒷𝓇𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝘮

The skill attached to this level-three item was actually able to make the user transform into the wolf king. It was an item that could transform people in a real sense!

After becoming the wolf king, he would naturally have the same talent and skills as the wolf king. Even when he was in the same state as the wolf king, it could be said that he had a strong suppressive effect on all the magical beasts in the fog forest.

More importantly, unlike other items, this cloak had a minimum level of use. That was to say, even if a person with only LV0 wore this cloak, you could have the power of the wolf king with LV17 within five minutes!

Roja couldn't wait to put the cloak on him. A strong beast's breath came from him. Roja was very familiar with it. It was the unique smell of the wolf king!

He couldn't help but raise his head and soared into the sky, unexpectedly letting out a wolf's howl from his mouth.

In an instant, the whole forest was shaking. The magical beasts, who had been trying to get close to Roja, ran away after hearing the howl.

The wolf king was still alive, and he was still the king of this fog forest!

Roja's howl sent out such a fierce message, which immediately convinced countless magical beasts. They didn't dare to go any further.

'So I'm the beastmaster now?'

Roja was surprised and confused.

However, the surprise brought to Roja by the wolf king was far more than that. There was a round token in the stuff from the wolf king.

At first, Roja didn't even see the token. He focused all his attention on the treasure chest, but now he calmed down and took out the token. Only then did Roja find that this token was a gambling token!

Their No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village had been gambled by other Green-Hand Villages all the time. Although their Green-Hand Village had won the victory and gained a lot of benefits, it was definitely not a good feeling to be in trouble with others.

Although No. 7274 Green-Hand Village had been defeated by them, more Green-Hand Villages were still eyeing them. Those Green-Hand Villages who had a strong desire to invade were eager to eat up Roja and hid Green-Hand Village.

"I have told you that since you want to rob others, you should be prepared to be plundered. From this gambling token, none of those who have insulted our Green-Hand Village and provoked us can escape!"

Roja said to himself, looking at the gambling token in his hand.

He opened the regional chat channel. As expected, those Green-Hand Villages, who claimed to make No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village pay the price jumped out again.

And as usual, No. 7274 Green-Hand Village and No. 666 Green-Hand Village were also included.

"No. 69524 Green-Hand Village, No. 100102 Green-Hand Village."

Roja called the names of the Green-Hand Villages and kept those arrogant Green-Hand Villages in mind.

Just then, a notice popped up in the regional channel.

"Congratulations on No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village producing an LV15 warrior, who is about to enter the regional chat channel."

Immediately, the people who had attacked No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village crazily changed their target. After chatting with the new Green-Hand Village, they revealed their sharp tusks, ready to plunder the newly promoted Green-Hand Village.

These robbers! What was the difference between such behavior and a beast!

Roja thought angrily. He pinched the gambling token in his hand and activated the resource gambling.

He didn't want to wait any longer. He was going to give the most arrogant Green-Hand Village a head-on blow!

Chapter 61

"Hint: you have activated the resource gambling token. You can freely choose the way you want to gamble."

Roja asked in surprise. Wasn't the form of resource gambling to connect with other Green-Hand Village and compete with the speed of upgrade? What else could it be?

Immediately, his question was answered by his projection.

"There are two forms of resource gambling. You can choose one of them as you like."

"Ordinary gambling: the initiator will choose a Green-Hand Village to gamble with resources. The winner's reward will be: doubled all the resources, the winner Green-Hand Village will have all kinds of attributes +20, and vice versa."

"Group gambling: the initiator chooses multiple Green-Hand Villages as his opponent and multiple Green-Hand Villages as his teammate. They were divided into two teams, red and blue. The first to reach the prescribed points won. The reward was very high."

"Hint: there is no limit to the use of ordinary gambling, and the group gambling requires the initiator to reach LV16."

Roja was overjoyed when he saw the information on his projection.

After killing the wolf king, he got a gambling token. He was wondering how to defeat all the Green-Hand Villages that had intended to invade.

Now, this group gambling had simply provided him the best opportunity!

"Hint: Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village starts the resource gambling token and chooses the mode of group gambling. You are acquiesced to be the blue team. Please start choosing your opponent! "

"Hint: as the initiator of the gamble, the reward for the winner of the gamble will be doubled, and the punishment for the failure will be doubled."

Following the instructions on the projection, a long row of Green-Hand Village numbers appeared in front of Roja, all of which were Green-Hand Villages in the No. 12 rookie district where Roja was now.

Roja sneered and began to look for the intruders who challenged No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village.

At the same time, the clamor in the regional chat channel did not stop.

No. 7274 Green-Hand Village: "Despicable! How despicable he is! He even used a despicable cheating technique to gain the gambling! I don't think it's fair. That Roja must have played some tricks!"

No. 666 Green-Hand Village: "Oh, my dear friend, we have the same thought! That despicable guy betrayed the path of a gentleman! He must be punished by using this method!"

No. 69524 Green-Hand Village: "You two losers, how can you say that he cheated? You are just a group of clowns. Why do you have to compete for the worst one? Our Green-Hand Village is the strongest one! Wait and see, the one called Roja will soon lose the gambling!"

No. 100102 Green-Hand Village: "God will punish them for this kind of behavior, and Our Lady won't watch such a clown continue to be arrogant! As holy apostles, we have the ability and obligation to punish this evil!"

No. 44232 Green-Hand Village: "It's impossible. There is no possibility of cheating in the system. I believe that Roja doesn't cheat. You should concede that win is a win and lose is a loss. This is a gentleman's behavior!"

No. 100102 Green-Hand Village: "Shut up, you evil monster! Didn't our last trial go deep into your hearts?"𝒍𝒊𝒃𝒓𝙚𝙖𝙙.𝓬𝙤𝙢

No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village: "You won't be forgiven by God! Robbing others is not a gentleman's behavior! We support Roja! Power can't make us yield! What we want is freedom!"

No. 34334 Green-Hand Village: "Humph, stupid! You've been brainwashed by your humble belief! If Roja didn't cheat, then why hasn't he come out to explain after we've talked so much?"

No. 100258 Green-Hand Village: "Yes, except for his arrogant words which can prove that he cheated, I really can't think of any reason to prove his innocence!"

An emergency announcement resounded through the whole chat channel as if a huge bomb had been dropped.

"Emergency announcement: Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village has started the group gambling in No. 12 rookie district for the first time."

"Hint: the group will be divided into two teams, red and blue. The loser would lose 70% of the resources and each of them would lose 50 points. The winner's resources would be doubled by two times, and each property would be increased by 50 points."

The regional chat channel fell into a terrible silence for a moment. This kind of game was really exciting!

In particular, the Green-Hand Villages which had ever obtained a gambling token, when they started it, they had seen the choice of the group gambling, but they did not dare to bet on the chance of victory or defeat.

But they didn't expect that Roja would start the group gambling as soon as he took action! This was too cruel!

After all, that was 70% of the resources and 50 points! If they had won a gamble before, they could still afford to sacrifice. But if they had lost before, 70% of the resources would be equivalent to strangling the fate of a Green-Hand Village!

There were still 50 points. Although there were masters above LV15 in the No. 12 rookie district, a large number of people in these Green-Hand Villages were still on a low level.

The total properties of these people were not enough to add up to 50. If 50 points were deducted, these people would probably be killed on the spot!

At this time, those who had insulted No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village before suddenly felt shocked. An inexplicable shadow shrouded their bodies, making them unable to breathe.

"Group gambling: This gambling will be divided into two teams, red and blue. Number 1002548 Green-Hand Village is the blue team. There were no more than 20 Green-Hand Village numbers on each side."

"Gambling method: the winner will be determined by accumulating points. The Green-Hand Village on both sides could provide points. The team accumulates 1000 points first wins."

"How to obtain points: you can get 1 point after killing the LV1 to LV10 demonic beasts, 2 points after killing the LV11 to LV13 demonic beasts, 3 points after killing the LV14 demonic beasts, and 4 points after killing the LV15 demonic beasts. The demonic beasts' level increases by 1, and the points will increase by 1."

"Hint: only the individual hunting of the magical beasts can obtain points. If a group of people is hunting, they will not be included."

God, only by killing the magical beasts alone could one obtain points! This completely blocked the way to winning with the number of teams!

This group gambling was actually so strict with the conditions!

How many Green-Hand Villages were needed to reach 1000 points!

Chapter 62

"Hint: in this resource gambling, people in the winner team reach 200 points will receive an extra reward, reach 500 points will receive a double reward, and reach 800 points will receive a treble reward."

"The hint is over. Roja starts to choose the opponent."

Although the mysterious extra reward made everyone excited, they couldn't help but feel nervous when they heard that Roja was choosing his opponent.

No one wanted to be the loser, so Roja's choice was of great importance to these Green-Hand Villages. 𝒍𝒊𝙗𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅.𝓬𝒐𝓶

Soon, Roja's hostile group appeared on the regional chat channel.

"Announcement of gambling: No. 666 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the red team being the opposing side."

"No, we just lost half of the resources. If we lose another 70%, we will be doomed!"

"Announcement of gambling: No. 7274 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the red team being the opposing side."

"These damn cheaters actually want to continue plundering resources while cheating! But this time, Toby will definitely defeat you!"

"Announcement of gambling: No. 69524 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the red team being the opposing side."

"Humph, we were chosen to be enemies just after a few words of justice. Roja is so rude! It's really humiliating the tradition!"

"Announcement of gambling: No. 100102 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the red team being the opposing side."

"Lord, have you seen it? A human who has tarnished your glory actually dares to take the initiative to provoke us! What bold behavior! We have to replace the great God and drive out the evil in the world!"

Roja selected one by one. In the regional chat channel, the Green-Hand Villages which had shown obvious malice and aggressiveness to No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, were all selected to the enemy side.

Exclamations continued on the field. Some Green-Hand Villages, who had been chosen to join the enemy's team, were still stubborn and fiercely declaring a threat, while some Green-Hand Villages had already let out wails.

Roja slapped those who doubted his cheating and were hostile to his Green-Hand Village through his way.

"It should have been like this. Look at these guys! They are usually very arrogant, but when they are really chosen to be the opponents, they begin to wail!"

"God won't bless you barbarians. We believe in Roja! We believe that he will lead us to victory! No. 42 Green-Hand Village apply to join the red team!"

"No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village as well! Although we just came in, we will try our best! We can't lower our heads to these invaders!"

Many people supported him, but most of them just supported him verbally.

Only No. 42 Green-Hand Village and No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village wanted to join the red team and join Roja in the resource gambling.

Humph! If he really adds those people who supported him verbally to his team, they would probably turn their heads to attack him in the first place.

These people just wanted to stand on the moral high ground to show their noble emotions. They were not willing to pay, nor were they willing to participate, and they were more afraid of failure!

Such a bystander who didn't care about others was also the reason for condoning the constant arrogance of the aggressor!

Roja looked coldly at the people who were cheering for him.

The previous two Green-Hand Villages joined after the strongest person gathered the opinions of the people in the Green-Hand Village, and then expressed that they wanted to join the regional chat channel.

As for the other Green-Hand Villages, they only expressed their support verbally without taking any action.

Roja even saw several Green-Hand Villages who were chosen by him to be the opponents also supported him on purpose, trying to make Roja transfer their Green-Hand Village from the enemies.

"Announcement of gambling: No. 42 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the blue team."

"Announcement of gambling: No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village was chosen as the blue team."

"Announcement of gambling: this time, it proves that the team chosen is over. There were twelve Green-Hand Villages in the red team and three Green-Hand Villages in the blue team."

"During the gambling, all the Green-Hand Villages who participated will be unable to chat in the regional chat channel for the time being. The Green-Hand Villages of each team would open the team chat channel."

With this message appearing on the regional chat channel, all the Green-Hand Villages who participated in this group gambling lost the connection with the regional chat channel at the same time.

However, this news completely triggered everyone's mood.

3 to 12! Was Roja crazy? Not to mention No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village, they just entered the regional chat channel.

There was only one LV15. Among the rest people, not to mention the people in LV14, even the people in LV13 and above, there would definitely not be more than ten in this Green-Hand Village!

Didn't Roja know that he only chose three Green-Hand Villages or the three weak Green-Hand Villages, which meant that he had almost given up the resource gambling?

"Oh, these arrogant guys! How dare they make such a choice! Don't they know that they will definitely fail?"

"Galen, don't say that. Maybe they have given up struggling and just want to save face. Roja is sensible. He sent us another Green-Hand Village to plunder."

"Hahaha! These stupid monsters must have shown their true colors under the light of God and realized their own evils. That's why they kneel and wait for our forgiveness!"

"I think Roja is just a stupid woman. He must be too impulsive to do such a stupid thing. He must be regretting now!"

In the red team, the emotions of these Green-Hand Villages, who had been selected, quickly changed from uneasiness at the beginning to arrogance now.

In their eyes, Roja, whom they had wantonly attacked, was stupid. In their opinion, even if Roja was a cheater, he would not be able to fight back under the huge gap between 3 players and 12 players!

On the contrary, there was dead silence on the chat channel of the blue team.

The people of No. 42 Green-Hand Village and No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village were all at a loss.

After a long time, someone said cautiously.

"Ladies and gentlemen, are we fooled by this guy called Roja? 3 to 12. No matter what, we won't win!"

"But. Those Green-Hand Villages have insulted him and they all have enmity with him. He won't hurt us, will he?"

Chapter 63

"Well, is there any possibility that Mr. Roja made a mistake? Did he start the gambling before he finished choosing?"

With this conjecture, everyone was even more flustered. If it was really a mistake, it meant that they would have no chance of winning this time. They could only wait to be plundered 70% of the resources and 50 points.

Just then, Roja appeared on the group chat channel.

"Don't worry. I didn't make any mistakes. I'm sure we'll win. When you gamble, you just need to try your best to kill the magical beasts."

Although Roja's explanation made everyone feel a little relieved, the No. 42 Green-Hand Village and No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village still found it hard to believe.

"But how can we win? Mr. Roja, you may think it's easy, but you have to show us some convincing evidence, right?"

About this question, the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village swarmed up to answer the question in place of Roja.

After listening to Roja's two experiences about how he made vigorous efforts to turn the tide, the two Green-Hand Villages admired Roja from head to toe. Although they were still a little panicked about this gambling, in their hearts, Roja had undoubtedly drawn an equal sign with the miracle.

"Everyone, I admit that I have taken some risks and made you stand on the dangerous side with me. But don't you want to see the faces of the invaders who have failed? Don't you want to appreciate their expressions after the failure?"

"Miracles are not created by any God. Miracles are created by ourselves. So, please join me in this group gambling to create miracles that belong to us!"

Roja's last words ignited the fire in everyone's heart.

Yes, No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village had been targeted the moment they entered, and No. 42 Green-Hand Village had been plundered two times. They wanted more than anyone to let those invaders pay the price!

Miracle! They had been waiting for such a miracle!

"Okay, let's go! This time, we will definitely create a miracle that belongs to us!"

"We must let those invaders pay a heavy price for what they have done!"

"Hint: during the group gambling, a new point list was added to the chat channel of each team. You can check the point at any time."

"Hint: the group gambling will start in ten minutes. Now the countdown begins."

Seeing that everyone had fully mobilized their emotions and the group gambling was about to begin, Roja withdrew from the group chat channel.

The fog forest was located at the southernmost of Green-Hand Village, and his next goal was the silent grassland in the easternmost of Green-Hand Village.

Although the system suggested that ten strong men above LV18 should be together to challenge the tiger king, with the last experience, Roja was not afraid of being alone to explore the situation.

Moreover, according to the experience of the demonic wolf, there must be a huge group of magical beasts beside the tiger king, which could help him upgrade during the slaughter.

Ten minutes later, the gambling began. Roja also arrived at the silent grassland.

As soon as Roja arrived, he understood why this grassland was called silence.

The wind blew over the plants, making no sound. The silence made Roja doubt if he was deaf.

But the smell of the magical beasts in the wind told Roja that this was definitely a very dangerous place. The waist-length wild grass and rare but huge trees were enough to hide countless magical beasts.

According to the system, the tiger king was in the depth of the silent grassland. In order to protect himself, Roja used the skill of the wolf soul cloak to transform into the demonic wolf king and ran all the way to the habitat of the tiger king. 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝙧𝙚𝓪𝒅.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Due to his unique beastmaster's aura, the magical beasts, which were hidden in the dark, dared not approach Roja at all. In just five minutes, Roja ran into the middle area.

The skill effect of the wolf soul cloak was over, and Roja hid his body the moment the effect disappeared.

Although he wasn't afraid of the magical beasts, if he fought here, it would cause some abnormal movements. He didn't want to alert the tiger king and the magical beasts beside him in advance.

It was a pity that they were on the grassland. Many magical beasts couldn't be found with naked eyes. Just as Roja curled up in the grass, he suddenly felt pain between his eyebrows.

When he looked up again, he saw a pair of evil eyes appearing out of nowhere.

There was no doubt that it was a huge magical beast. Because of the patterns on its body, the magical beast was almost integrated with the surrounding environment.

The strong aura of the magical beasts around them became the best umbrella for this magical beast. It was not until Roja got close to it that he suddenly found it.

"Well, it's a misunderstanding. Do you believe it?"

Roja was taken aback and couldn't help explaining.

Then he wanted to slap himself on the face. It was a magical beast. How could it understand the human language!

The sharp claws of the magical beast came at Roja fiercely. Before Roja could take out his weapon, he punched back.

Roja was wearing the pair of poisonous gloves that he got from his trip to the insect valley. Although Roja suffered a little loss in strength, the tiger-shaped magical beast, on the contrary, had its whole claw corroded by the poison.

A terrified growl came out of the tiger-shaped magical beast's mouth. To Roja's surprise, on this silent grassland, even the growl of the magical beast was suppressed at an extremely low frequency, which sounded more like a cat's scream.

It turned around and wanted to run away, but Roja wouldn't allow the magical beast to escape. With a wave of the moonlight machete, the magical beast was divided into two parts.

But the strong smell of the blood also attracted other magical beasts' attention.

Only then did Roja notice that there were seven or eight magical beasts hiding around the place where he thought covert!

These tiger-shaped magical beasts should be from the same group, and the one that attacked him should be the spy they had released.

But now that the spy was dead, the whole group was determined to swallow the intruder!

Roja took a deep breath and waved the moonlight machete in his hand.

"Come together if you want to die. I'm in a hurry. I don't have time to play games with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground under Roja's feet began to roll.

Chapter 64

"Magical beast: demonic tiger, level: LV16, nature: the earth. Blood vitality: 1800, energy: 600, strength: 800, defense: 300, agility:200. Talent: soil manipulation. Skill: earth stab. The explosive rate: 10%."

The Eyes of God reflected the information about the talent of these magical beasts. At this time, Roja's body had already flown in the air. 𝑙𝘪𝒷𝘳𝑒𝘢𝑑.𝒸𝑜𝑚

At the moment when the ground beneath his feet was surging, Roja activated the butterfly wings.

When he looked at the ground beneath his feet, he found that the soil was rolling and twisting like waves.

On the other hand, the demonic tigers stood on the flat ground under their feet and growled at Roja threateningly.

The surging soil pushed the body of a demonic tiger up sharply. Its claws were as big as Roja's head. If this palm hit Roja's body, at least his bones and tendons would be broken.

However, Roja didn't plan to take the blow so easily. With the talent of flow controlling, although he couldn't fly directly, he could adjust his position.

At the moment when the tiger's claws came, Roja's tiptoe lightly tapped on the tiger's claws. With the help of its strength, he flew upward again. Since the strength of the demonic tiger had been used up, it was impossible to continue to follow Roja.

It wanted to control its body, but a cold light suddenly appeared in front of it. It was a dagger shining with venom. Before the demonic tiger could react, the dagger had been deeply nailed into its forehead.

With a suppressed roar, the body of the demonic tiger began to rot. when it fell to the ground, there was only a dry bone left.

The surging soil quickly devoured its bones, and the other demonic tigers no longer attacked rashly as it did. Instead, they waited carefully below, trying to wait for this human to fall into their domain before they began to attack.

"Nice try. You can attack me with your own strength. If it were another person, you would really have succeeded!"

Roja praised. The intelligence of these demonic tigers was obviously improved a lot with the improvement of their level.

But they met Roja. Although Roja lost his flying skill and fell to the ground inevitably, a strong wind blew the land away the moment he landed.

The wolf king's talent of the wind controlling played a huge role at this moment.

Under Roja's control, the hurricane only appeared in a small range, but it was enough to break through the control of the demonic beasts on the ground.

Even though the demonic tigers were huge, they couldn't command their bodies in front of the horrible hurricane. They were dragged in the hurricane and swayed their limbs powerlessly.

They were magical beasts of the earth attribute. After they left the land they lived on, their strength was greatly reduced.

The blade gently swept across the neck of every demonic tiger. Under the erosion of the venom, although the blood vitality of this group of demonic tigers was not low, it was still difficult for them to escape the fate of turning into white bones.

The hurricane stopped. Accompanied by a crackling sound, the bones of the demonic tigers fell to the ground.

To Roja's surprise, he had thought that only the sound of the magical beasts would be lowered on this silent grassland. But when the bones fell on the ground, the sound of collision was also lowered by some kind of force.

Roja couldn't help but frown. He tried to activate his night roar talent. As expected, when the majestic tiger's roar came out of his mouth, it was as gentle as a cat.

Well, it seems that there was some kind of mysterious power on this silent grassland that could forbid all the life and non-life forms here to make too much noise.

In the end, Roja could only come to this conclusion reluctantly, but he still didn't know what the effect of this environment would be.

"System, plunder."

"Plundering."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations on obtaining the level-D talent: soil manipulation. Skill: earth stab."

"The two same talents automatically overlapped and evolved into the level-C talent: earth controlling."

Roja tried the talent curiously, he immediately felt the wonder of it.

Originally, the talent of soil manipulation could only simply manipulate the soil so that it could act according to his will.

However, the current earth controlling could make himself integrated with the soil, and he could even move freely in the solid ground without any hindrance.

This meant that Roja could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble in the process of going to the habitat of the tiger king. Moreover, in the face of the pursuit of magical beasts, he had another way to escape.

Even if the magical beasts could dig three feet into the ground, they couldn't catch up with him simply by digging.

Then Roja looked at the treasure box of the demonic tigers.

There was only one level-C treasure box in total among the eight demonic tigers, which made Roja sigh that his luck today was really lacking.

But it was better than nothing. Roja opened the level-C treasure box.

With a flash of white light, a circular badge appeared on Roja's hand.

"Level-three item: earth badge. The user could get the affinity of the earth element. Defense +30."

Roja looked at the badge in his hand in surprise. Apart from its color, the shape of the badge was actually the same as the one he had obtained before. Moreover, the additional effect was also an affinity for elements!

The wind badge brought about the affinity of the wind element, which could help Roja withstand the attack of the demonic wolf king. With this earth badge, he might have a chance to fight against the tiger king now!

At least he could run away.

Roja was overjoyed. He took out his wind badge and the earth, and carefully compared them.

Just as he was admiring his two badges, there seemed to be a sudden magnetic force between the two badges, tightly clasping together.

After a burst of distorted white light, the two circular badges were no longer complete. Instead, they merged together and turned into an incomplete badge, showing a semicircle shape.

With his mouth wide open, Roja stared at the semicircle badge in his hand in disbelief.

He suddenly thought of a possibility. There were four elements, earth, wind, water and fire. He had collected the two elements' badges, and these two badges could merge into a semicircle.

That was to say, there were also two kinds of badges of water and fire. When he collected four kinds of badges, he would obtain a badge of all elements!

Chapter 65

Roja couldn't help feeling excited. Only a single element of the badge could make him survive under the attacks of the beastmaster. If the four elements were gathered together, how strong would it be!

After carefully examining the semicircle badge in his hand for a while, Roja carefully put it on the inner side of his armor. He didn't want to lose this precious badge in the battle because of his wrong operation.

He opened the point ranking list of the blue team. As he expected, Roja's name was ranked first and had reached 48 points.

Apart from him, only eight members of the red team managed to hunt down the magical beasts of LV14 with their own efforts.

The point was still far from enough. Roja wondered what was going on with the red team. But he really needed to speed up.

Lowering his body, Roja hid in the grassland. With the affinity of earth and the talent of earth controlling, Roja didn't need to worry about the sudden attack of the magical beasts at all.

All the magical beasts had to walk on the ground. He only needed to avoid those tall trees and prevent the magical beasts from attacking him directly from the tree. Otherwise, no one magical beast could escape from his perception.

In Roja's perception, there was a huge magical beast in the direction he was heading. No one knew what it was doing, but it was still in the direction he was heading.

If he wanted to bypass the magical beast's perception, he would definitely break into the other magical beasts' territory. At that time, it was very likely to cause a chain reaction, causing him to be hunted down by many magical beasts.

Since it was impossible to dodge, then let him go there and kill it. Roja thought.

A mere LV16 magical beast couldn't stop him.

After making up his mind, Roja began to sneak. He kept moving forward until he was a hundred meters away from the magical beast. It was not until then that Roja found that the magical beast was really huge, beyond his imagination.

The magical beast's huge body was lying in the grass, the color of which blended with the grass. At a glance, it looked like a small hill.

The Eyes of God talent activated. Now Roja could only use his talent to judge the ability of the magical beast.

Roja didn't know where the magical beast's head was hidden. The only thing he could see was its body. He didn't even know where the limbs of the magical beast were hidden.

"Magical beast: armored rhinoceros. Grade: LV16, blood vitality: 2500, strength: 600, energy: 500, defense: 600, agility:100. Talent: armor. Skill: Blood vitality recovery. The explosive rate: 10%."

It had a blood vitality of 2500 and a defensive value of 600! It was not a magical beast! It was almost a mountain!

Roja let out a long sigh. Its blood vitality and defense were almost two times stronger than his. No wonder it dared to sleep here swaggeringly, not afraid of any sneak attack from other magical beasts.

If someone else encountered such a magical beast, he would definitely be helpless. Its horrifying blood vitality and defensive value, coupled with a skill that could recover its blood vitality, could exhaust even the enemy whose level was higher than it to death!

But Roja was different. His moonlight machete had an armor-breaking effect, and the level of agility was far beyond that of this armored rhinoceros. If compared to consumption, this armored rhinoceros was waiting to be beaten!

Roja leaned against the armored rhinoceros silently. He took out a dagger from his backpack and threw it at it.

He didn't expect it could hurt the armored rhinoceros. He just wanted it to show its head so that he could easily judge its weakness when attacking.

However, when the dagger hit the armor of the armored rhinoceros, there was not even a white dot left. Under the impact, the dagger was even broken into several pieces.

Roja's dagger was smeared with venom. Normally, the venom was invincible for the magical beasts. But now, the venom only stayed on it for a moment and then disappeared helplessly.

Even if it was a kind of liquid that could spread through everything, it was still unable to find any breakthrough in the armor of the armored rhinoceros.

Roja was stunned. He didn't expect that his attack, which he was proud of, didn't work at all.

If he couldn't find its weakness, he would have to cut off its defense bit by bit, and then slowly consume its strong blood vitality.

But Roja didn't want to choose such a troublesome way. He turned on the dark erosion and the surging black gas hit the armored rhinoceros, causing a layer of black mist to appear around its body.

At last, the armored rhinoceros couldn't keep calm anymore. The dark erosion could directly attack its body without being blocked by the defense. The armored rhinoceros was suddenly attacked like this and raised its huge head suddenly.

Roja was amazed again. The head of the armored rhinoceros was as big as a locomotive, with a sharp horn shining with cold light.

As for its huge body, you might not be able to fight back if you were hit by it.

Its little eyes flashed with an evil light. It looked at the tiny human standing in front of it and roared silently. Then it spread its four hooves and rushed towards Roja with one horn.

The rhinoceros was huge, but it didn't move fast. Roja dodged its attack with a slight sideways movement. At the same time, the moonlight machete turned and cut a wound under its neck. 𝓵𝒊𝒃𝙧𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Although it was hit, Roja smiled bitterly. The effect of the armor breaking still existed, but this wound didn't even have blood. The reduced defense was insignificant to the armored rhinoceros.

The armored rhinoceros turned around, its eyes shining with disdain. It charged at Roja again.

This time, Roja changed his mind. His body sank sharply, and then the armored rhinoceros felt the ground under its feet soft as if it had fallen into a swamp. It was extremely difficult to pull out its four hooves.

Earth controlling overlapping the earth stab!

The armored rhinoceros let out a slight roar, and the blood spurted from its body, which made it fall into fear. It desperately struggled with its limbs, trying to get out of control.

Sure enough, most of the magical beasts' defenses were on the surface of their body, and their soft abdomen was its weakness!

Roja was overjoyed and continued to control the ground under his feet. The heavy body of the armored rhinoceros flew up, exposing its soft abdomen in front of Roja.

Chapter 66

How could Roja miss such an opportunity? The moonlight machete flashed, and a shining light streaked across the abdomen of the armored rhinoceros. It was severely poisoned before it could even release its own talent.

A violent roar came out of its mouth. This roar was not limited by the silent grassland, but extremely loud, spreading far away in this silent grassland.

Even though the armored rhinoceros had amazing defensive power and strong blood vitality, it was an attack on the inside of its body, and even such a defense was unable to resist it.

A few seconds later, the armored rhinoceros turned into an empty shell. All the flesh and blood were corroded by the poison, leaving only the huge armor on the spot.

Roja stepped forward and tapped its heavy armor. He felt a sharp pain in his fingers. This was definitely the hardest thing he had ever seen. If he wanted to break it head-on, he had to be at least two levels ahead of this armored rhinoceros.

What made Roja curious was the roar of the armored rhinoceros. In this silent grassland, the sound of all the creatures should not be too loud, which had just been proved.

However, the armored rhinoceros had obviously broken the rule before it died. Roja couldn't help but think about what the rule was that the creatures could only make a roar before they died.

Frowning, Roja was thinking while dealing with the body of the armored rhinoceros. First of all, he extracted the talent of armor and the skill of blood vitality recovery. Then, with a 10% explosive rate, a level-D treasure box was released.

"The treasure chest is opened. Congratulations on your harvest of the level-three herbs: earth fruit."

"Earth fruit: it can promote the talent of the earth attribute to level-B: thick earth, which has the ability to change other properties into the earth attribute."

It was a good thing! It was the first time that Roja had heard that fruit could change other attributes!

He had been eager to take the fruit and see its effect, but at this moment, an unusual feeling came from the ground under Roja's feet.

The earth controlling helped Roja easily feel the change of soil. In his perception, it seemed that countless insects were crawling.

He didn't know how many of these insects there were. But judging from the rumbling sound on the ground, it was definitely an extremely large group, and they had a clear unified goal.

Roja thought for a while. He had planned to have a face-to-face collision with the magical beasts, but the silent grassland was obviously not measured by common sense, so he decided to temporarily avoid it and observe it first. 𝒍𝒊𝙗𝓻𝒆𝓪𝙙.𝙘𝙤𝙢

When he jumped onto a huge tree, Roja found that although he had put the armored rhinoceros' armor into the storage ring, its bones were still scattered on the ground.

The hard skeleton of this magical beast was extremely heavy, each of which weighed hundreds of pounds. Under the sunlight, they were iron-gray, and their strength was almost the same as that of the outer shell of the armored rhinoceros.

It was too late for Roja to take them, he just hid in the tree. He wanted to see why these magical insects came here.

When the soil was separated, a large number of ants came up from the ground. These ants were the size of a palm, and their bodies were shining with a dark gold luster. Especially for the pair of mouthparts, they were half the length of an ant's body, and the cold light was revealed, like two daggers.

"Magical beast: silent demonic ant, level: LV15, blood vitality: 800, energy: 800, strength: 100, defense: 100, agility:200. Talent: super strength. Explosive rate: 3%."

"Hint: the silent demonic ant is a social creature. They look for food according to the sound."

Roja was a little surprised. Although the level of these silent demonic ants had reached LV15, they were far inferior to the magical beasts of the same level, and even some of the LV13 magical beasts were much higher than them.

But then Roja understood why these ants were called the silent ants.

The hard skeleton of the armored rhinoceros was as fragile as paper under the mouthparts of the silent demonic ants. Under the siege of the large group of ants, it was quickly swallowed up.

The destructive force made Roja even doubt if the 100 points of strength were wrong.

What made Roja's scalp tingle was the number of the silent demonic ants.

From his point of view, there were countless silent demonic ants. Although they had covered a large area, more and more of them were still coming out of the ground.

Under such a large number of sieges, unless there was absolute power that could guarantee these silent demonic ants would not get close to one's body, or one was confident that he could defeat them all.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful the warrior was, there were only two choices, escape and death!

In a few minutes, the silent demonic ants had already eaten up the bones of the armored rhinoceros. Then the group of ants flowed back along the way like water. They even replaced the ground they had turned over so that the whole ground was flat again.

Roja didn't dare to act rashly. He didn't dare to climb down the tree carefully until the sound of the silent demonic ants disappeared.

When he was halfway down, he suddenly saw an ape-shaped magical beast squatting above his head. It was only a few meters away from him at most. When he hid just now, it could grab his head with a stretch.

However, the magical beast didn't move at all. Its whole body trembled, and it desperately shrank its body to hide in the leaves. This was also the reason why Roja hadn't seen the magical beast until now.

Under the great deterrence of those silent demonic ants, the other magical beasts lost their hunting instinct. One could imagine how terrifying these silent demonic ants were.

"No wonder this place is called the silent grassland. With these ants, even if they dare to make a little louder sound, they can't escape the disaster."

Roja murmured to himself. Of course, his voice was very low.

Under the deterrence of the silent demonic ants, silence had already become the rule of this grassland. Perhaps only before they died they could break the rule to make a roar like the armored rhinoceros.

It seemed that this time, his task was very difficult. It was already very difficult to break through the silent demonic ants to find the tiger king.

Chapter 67

But Roja suddenly realized something. If this grassland was named after the existence of the silent demonic ant, then what was the status of the tiger king in this grassland?

There shouldn't be two rulers on a grassland. If there was an ant group, there should be a queen ant. But if there was absolute silence on the grassland, the tiger king shouldn't have become the ruler here. On the contrary, the ruler here should be the queen ant.

After thinking for a long time, Roja still couldn't figure out the relationship between the two rulers. In the end, he could only simply attribute it to the food chain. Perhaps it was because the two types of magical beasts didn't devour each other.

The tiger king was stronger than the queen ant, so there must be a real ruler and a nominal ruler in this silent grassland.

Roja found a quiet place and swallowed the earth fruit he had opened from the treasure box.

Now he needed more powerful strength to break through the silent demonic ant group and find the tiger king in the core area of the silent grassland.

After the fruit was eaten, Roja felt as if the blood all over his body had turned into soil and blocked in his blood vessels and veins as if to turn his flesh and blood into stones.

An arduous sound came out of his mouth. He saw his body turning into a stone statue from the tip of his finger. The hard touch made his joints stiff little by little and finally maintained a strange range.

To realize the transformation between the elements, the first thing to do was to transform the user.

Unable to breathe or move, all the five senses disappeared. Roja even began to doubt if he was still alive.

But at this moment, the badge he wore in his armor suddenly emitted a brownish yellow light, illuminating the chest of Roja, who had turned into a stone statue.

Roja felt that the shackles that had been restraining him were suddenly opened as if he broke through the water surface. He took a deep breath and felt that his dry lungs had returned to life at this moment.

He had never felt that the air was so sweet. Every breath was a supreme enjoyment.

While Roja was breathing, the soil on the ground also gathered in Roja's body from all directions. They attached themselves to the surface of Roja's body, and gradually integrated into Roja's skin, slowly replacing the original biological structure of Roja.

At this moment, Roja was touching the ground with his hand. He felt as if the whole earth was going to be integrated with him. He could feel every change of the ground and the movement of every soil.

As long as he wanted, the whole land seemed to be a part of Roja's body. His spirit slowly spread out with the help of soil. In a short time, he had caught up with the silent demonic ants which were moving quickly underground.

This wonderful feeling made Roja feel relaxed and happy. His feet moved, and all of the soil was pushing his body forward. His speed was several times faster than before.

A strong sense of confidence spread in Roja's heart. Previously, he had to be careful in front of the silent demonic ants, but now, they were the storehouse for him to provide points and experience!

The strongest part of the silent demonic ant lay in its number. As long as a silent demonic ant got close to his body, unless he could endure the pain of being bitten by the bone and blood, he would definitely be devoured by countless silent demonic ants in the end.

Now that he had the level-B talent of thick earth, Roja was 100% confident that he could keep every silent demonic ant at a safe distance.

Unknowingly, Roja had caught up with the silent demonic group.

The silent demonic ant was the rule of this silent grassland. Naturally, there would not be a magical beast who was stupid enough to stop the ants from moving forward, nor would the magical beast dare to follow the ants so closely like Roja.

This gave Roja a great convenience to pursue the ants without scruple.

"Well, the rule of silence on the silent grassland has lasted for too long. Now let me break this ugly rule!"

Roja said to himself as he passed the group of silent demonic ants and stopped them. He felt the ground beneath his feet shake.

Nigh roar talent activated!

This time, Roja directly broke the rule of the silent grassland. This terrifying roar lasted for a thousand miles, like a raging thunder falling from the sky, like a heavenly punishment from Zeus.

The ground in front of Roja suddenly turned over, and the silent demonic ants felt the loud sound wave. Now they were going to hunt their prey who dared to make sounds on this grassland.

Since the night roar had pointed to an underground target, the effect of fear naturally did not occur. However, Roja's purpose was to use this roar to attract the attention of the silent demonic ants.

Facing the overwhelming crowd of ants, Roja stood still.

A solid stone wall rose around him. The surging silent demonic ants bumped into it, making the sound of waves hitting the reef.

That was exactly what Roja wanted.

The silent demonic ants only felt that the ground beneath their feet suddenly began to surge. This place they were very familiar with suddenly became strange. Countless sharp thorns grew from their feet.

The spikes were as thin as hair. Under Roja's skillful control, they pierced through the bodies of the silent demonic ants.

,m Although the group attack power of these ants was indeed very strong, the individual value was ridiculously low. It was just a simple skill that could take their lives.

Of course, only one skill could kill a small part of the silent demonic ants. Although Roja was strong, he was not able to control tens of thousands of hair thick thorns at a time.

A sound of metal vibration was heard from the silent demonic ant group. Then he looked at them. Their bodies had expanded unexpectedly, and their mouthparts were even sharper and larger. With a gentle touch, they could easily cut the defense built by Roja.

"There is no way to heaven but to hell. You are really going there one after another."

Roja murmured to himself, and his fist hit the ground hard.

In an instant, with Roja's body as the center, the ripples on the ground spread out in circles. All the silent demonic ants that were swept by the shock wave were frozen in midair.

When he looked carefully, he found that their bodies had turned into sand that could be broken into pieces with a pinch!

Chapter 68

The earth element transformation skill could only have the effect on weaker creatures, and it played a great role at the moment. The attack of the silent demonic ants was easily defeated, and Roja didn't need to deal with it by himself.

He only needed to command the surging soil to send the poison he refined to the side of the silent demonic ants, and they would not be able to withstand the erosion of the poison.

From a distance, he could see that the surroundings of Roja were already filled with sand. The silent demonic ants that attacked him had either turned into soil or been eroded by poison.

With the collapse of countless silent demonic ants, Roja's points also soared like a rocket.

At this time, Edward had killed more than a dozen LV14 magical beasts. He had thought this result was good, but when he opened the list of points, he thought he was dazzled for a moment.

The number after Roja's name was spinning crazily. It was hard to see the unit's place clearly. It could only be seen that tens digits were constantly increasing. Now, Roja's points had reached to terrifying 510!

"Oh my God! What the hell did this guy do? Did he rob the system of this world? Not to mention others, even I think he is suspected of cheating!"

Edward couldn't help but let out a groan.

At this moment, the people of No. 42 Green-Hand Village and No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village also found that Roja's points were growing crazily. They also fell into madness at the same time.

"What the hell did this man do? Isn't he only LV16? How can he accumulate so many points?"

"I, I think I need to reconsider whether he cheated or not. Now I think there is nothing wrong with saying that he cheated, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense. This is strength. Do you understand?"

"That's true, but don't you think it's too unreasonable to have such strength?"

"It hasn't been a long time since the beginning of the gambling. It should be less than a day, right? If we continue at this speed, I'm afraid we can win today!"

"A miracle! It's really a miracle! God has shown his holy power. He is helping us, helping us fight against the invaders!"

The chat channel of the blue team was almost crazy, but the red team was a little stiff.

Although the 12 Green-Hand Villages had been assigned to the same team, in fact, there was very little communication between them. Occasionally, they talked about the progress of their hunting.

Now the number one on the red team's ranking list was Toby from No. 7274 Green-Hand Village.

Although he had relied on his subordinates before, he had some real skills. At this time, his points had exceeded one hundred.

"Sir, it's almost over today. Hunting the magical beasts at night is not good for us, let alone a one-on-one battle. I think we can continue hunting tomorrow."

Andre stood beside Toby and said softly.

"No, we can't. We won't lose this game again. Now Galen has almost accumulated one hundred points, and the other Green-Hand Villages are in good condition. Our total points had reached 400!"

"As long as we work harder, we can reach 1000 points tomorrow. At that time, I must let this despicable Roja feel pain!"

Toby swore solemnly. His eyes were burning with strong hatred. He raised the scimitar in his hand and chopped hard at the head of the magical beast in front of him as if it was Roja's head.

The situation in other Green-Hand Villages was almost the same.

Almost all of the Green-Hand Village of the red team felt that they were sure to win, especially when they saw that their progress was about to reach half within a day, they were even more proud.

In their opinion, the blue team only had three Green-Hand Villages. Even if they tried their best to chase them, they couldn't achieve half of their achievements in two days.

"Hey, guys, have you seen the point list? At most by this time tomorrow, we can accumulate 1000 points! By that time, we can let Roja and others taste the pain of failure!"

"Yeah, yeah, they are just overconfident. They are going to suffer a lot soon. I can't wait to see their ugly state on the regional chat channel!"

"Our Green-Hand Village also has a gambling token. After this time, we must launch a challenge to gamble and teach that bastard named Roja a good lesson!"

As soon as the first voice appeared, other people on the red chatting channel were immediately awakened. They laughed and wantonly exaggerated the situation of the blue team after they failed.

"The overall situation has been decided. Even if Roja is really Satan, he can't change the result."

Toby said confidently. Once he thought that he was about to see Roja fail, he felt relieved. Even the smell of the blood from the magical beast in front of him was so wonderful.

"Andre, the reason why I didn't commit seppuku last time was that I had to find Roja for revenge. And this time, with such a good opportunity for revenge, I will never fail!"

Toby took out the gorgeous dagger again and handed it to Andre. This time, he even pulled it out.

"Andre, if we still fail this time, please cut off my head. My blood will wash away my shame and keep my last dignity. This is my pursuit of martial arts." 𝑙𝑖𝘣𝓇𝑒𝒶𝘥.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Andre said in a low voice, kneeling on one knee and taking the dagger from Toby respectfully.

"Mr. Toby, I really admire your great character. You are a real strong man and worth my whole life to follow. Don't worry. I won't let your dignity be shamed!"

,m Toby nodded with satisfaction. Then he announced on the red chat channel, "Gentlemen, I'm Toby from No. 7274 Green-Hand Village. I declare that we have won the battle. If we fail, I will wash away the shame with my own blood!"

There should have been a lot of compliments after Toby finished his words, but an inappropriate message appeared after Toby's words.

"The announcement of gambling: the blue team accumulated 1000 points and won the gambling."

The smile on Toby's face froze with embarrassment. He pointed at the message on the chatting channel, and his Adam's apple was wriggling up and down. Finally, he couldn't hold on any longer. He rolled his eyes, spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Chapter 69

Toby couldn't bear the huge blow and fainted, and the other Green-Hand Villages in the red team were not much better.

The highest of them only got more than 50 points. Although the number of people was large that they could have a considerable number of points.

They didn't expect that the blue team would win so soon under the leadership of Roja.

Looking at the mountains and the rivers in front of them constantly disappearing, the magical beasts that were about to be hunted by them turned into light dots one after another and rose into the sky. They felt that their souls were about to break into pieces.

At this moment, many people were crazily wailing. Those were the resources they relied on for survival and the guarantee of the upgrade!

But all this could not be redeemed. They had to pay for the sins they had committed. This was the rule they had always believed in, and now it was working on them.

Among the Green-Hand Villages of the red team, there was still a large proportion of people who were still at a lower level, and their total body properties didn't add up to 50 points. After deducting them two times, many of them immediately turned into light dots and vanished into thin air.

On the contrary, all the people in No. 42 Green-Hand Village and No. 1002542 Green-Hand Village of the blue team looked at the huge mountains and rivers rising up in front of them, and the magical beasts that appeared out of nowhere, they fell into a daze.

Many people were still pinching their cheeks, trying to prove what they saw was true with pain. It had to be said that happiness came so suddenly!

Roja didn't even give them much time to suspect from the completely impossible victory to the current victory!

A beam of light fell on Roja. Since his personal points had got more than 500 points and he was the initiator of the gambling, the reward for him was three times more than that of others! 𝒍𝓲𝒃𝙧𝓮𝙖𝒅.𝓬𝙤𝓶

That was 150 points! Apportioning evenly, his increase was almost equal to half a level!

The silent demonic ants were no longer able to stop Roja. They also sensed the strength of their opponent in front of them. After losing almost half of their members, they quickly retreated back to the ground.

This time, after activating their talent, the moving speed of these silent demonic ants in the soil had increased by several times. Even if Roja wanted to catch up with them, it would be difficult. After all, he was facing an entire race, and they were all fleeing desperately.

Tens of thousands of ants, even if the explosive rate was not high, Roja still obtained over a hundred level-E treasure boxes.

These treasure boxes' level was so low that Roja didn't even want to open them. Even if he opened it, they were still some useless equipment in his hands, so he threw them all into his backpack.

Roja's level had now reached LV17. Killing the silent demonic ants had increased his experience greatly. Now, even he was close to LV18.

"Hint: since Roja has made a great contribution to the gambling, he will be rewarded with an extra card of the synthetic treasure chest."

"Card of the synthetic treasure chest: after using it, you can combine ten low-level treasure chests into a high-level treasure chest. Each card can only be used once. You can obtain it after killing the magical beasts."

Another beam of light slowly fell from the sky. Roja gently took it over. It was a gilded card with a golden treasure box drawn on it.

Roja was overjoyed. This card might not be useful to others, because they couldn't gather so many low-level treasure boxes. Once they got treasure boxes, they would open them immediately and get the equipment to strengthen themselves.

But he was different. He was worried that he couldn't deal with the hundreds of treasure boxes that he obtained after killing the silent demonic ants. If he could get more treasure boxes in the process of killing the magical beasts, these treasure boxes would at least provide him with a level-B treasure box!

Immediately, Roja couldn't wait to try it out. After using the card of the synthetic treasure box, the ten level-E treasure boxes in his backpack slowly merged into a level-D treasure box.

At this time, Roja suddenly saw the profile picture of Edward flashing. He clicked it and saw a bitter smile emoji from Edward.

"Are you still there? Go and have a look. The regional chat channel is noisy again. The Green-Hand Villages that have been defeated by you, are now criticizing you."

Roja snorted. These robbers were bullies. Now that they had been defeated by him, they dared to make trouble for him. They were courting death.

Roja clicked on the chat channel and found it was very noisy.

"Roja is an evil king! His real purpose is not for resources, but for killing! He wants to destroy other Green-Hand Villages in this way, killing the people of Green-Hand Villages!"

"God, I've already seen it. This person is the murderer demon. This time, hundreds of people in our Green-Hand Village died!"

"Bullshit! You provoked Mr. Roja first! Mr. Roja had no choice but to fight back!"

"If you didn't invade other Green-Hand Villages again and again, how could Roja do such a thing? It's just your lofty excuses!"

"What are you pretending to be, Ralph? Do you also want to be killed by the evil killer? We have seen through his purpose! Now we should join hands to resist the killer!"

"What killer? You are the killer! You never said that when you invaded our Green-Hand Village!"

Roja was so angry that he even burst into laughter.

He had never expected that there would be such a person in the world, who was even more disgusting than the most vicious beast!

"You Green-Hand Villages, if you want, you can challenge me at any time. I'm always with you whether it's challenge gambling or resource gambling. But don't expect me to show mercy."

Roja retorted coldly, but the Green-Hand Villages didn't seem to be ready to make a concession.

"Are you in a hurry now? Are you in a hurry to fight back because you have been stabbed in the pain by us?"

"Why should we challenge you? You are just a cheater! We disdain to fight against a cheater!"

"A gamble? Why should we gamble with you? Do we still need to give you an excuse to commit murder? God will never forgive you for doing this! You will definitely be punished!"

"Oh my God! Look at this man! He even wants to fight with us! It seems that the bloody killing part of his bones is beginning to stir up trouble again!"

Chapter 70

"Roja, don't bother. By now, these beasts have already disregarded the truth. They are just distorting the truth according to their own understanding."

Edward said to Roja with a bitter smile. Before Roja showed up, they had tried to communicate and even fiercely scold each other.

But in the face of this group of beasts who had lost the gambling, no matter how much he said was in vain.

Suddenly, a person's speech on the regional chat channel stopped the fierce quarrel.

Sphinx: "Everyone is lively. How can I not be involved in such a lively thing? Mr. Roja, I have a gambling token, and I can't find a suitable opponent. I wonder if you are willing to make a deal with me?"

With Sphinx's words, the arrogant robbers panicked.

"Mr. Sphinx! Absolutely not! This person is the murderous evil king! If you sell the gambling token to him, I don't know how many people will be killed by him!"

"We are willing to buy this gambling token. The price is up to you. As long as we can afford it, we can accept it!"

"My merciful God, Mr. Sphinx. Didn't you see how arrogant Roja was just now?"

"Mr. Sphinx, this is going to send us to hell! The resource gambling launched by the evil king will definitely plunder our resources and kill our people! This is a crime!"

But Sphinx didn't pay attention to their cries. He said to Roja friendly.

"Mr. Roja, I think you don't need to pay attention to them. You just need to do what you want to do. Of course, no one likes a wild dog barking, neither do I."

Roja was touched by Sphinx's words.

In fact, Sphinx was also unhappy with these robbers, but did he ignore them just because he couldn't gather more teams to gamble with them on resources?

So he immediately sent a message to Sphinx.

"Dear Mr. Sphinx, I think we have the same view. A group of wild dogs barking is really annoying. So everyone wants to drive them away, right?"

Sphinx: "Roja, I like you very much. You're right. Let's make a deal now. I can give you this gambling token for free, but in exchange, you have to agree to one request."

Roja nodded and said, "No problem. It's just a friend's request. Just tell me what you want to do."

Although he said so, Roja was ready to refuse.

Sphinx and Roja had the same goal on this matter. Although they called each other friends, Roja was still not sure about Sphinx's true attitude towards him.

If what Sphinx put forward was harmful to his interests, he would never agree.

Sphinx said with a smile as if he had seen through Roja's mind.

"Mr. Roja, you must be thinking about whether I have any plans for you or not. Don't worry. I won't play tricks on my friends. My conditions are very simple. After you start the gambling, our Green-Hand Village can join your team."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole chat channel was filled with exclamations again.

The screams of those robbers were because this time they had to face not only Roja but also a more powerful Sphinx.

More people exclaimed because Sphinx was willing to give up his identity as the strongest and join Roja's team. It seemed that Roja was more likely to win!

Roja was also overjoyed. The condition of Sphinx was not a condition at all. It did not damage his interests and even had great benefits.

So he agreed to Sphinx's condition without hesitation. Sphinx was also very straightforward. He immediately transferred the gambling token to Roja through the trading system.

"Emergency announcement: Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village has started a group gambling in No. 12 rookie district." 𝙡𝓲𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝒐𝙢

"Hint: the group will be divided into two teams, red and blue. The loser would lose 70% of the resources and each of them would lose 50 points. The winner's resources would be doubled by two times, and each property would be increased by 50 points."

"Hint: in this resource gambling, the person of winning team reaches 200 points will receive an extra reward, reaches 500 points will receive a double reward, and reaches 800 points will receive a treble reward."

"The hint is over. Roja starts to choose his opponent."

"Announcement of gambling: No. 666 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the red team being the opposing side."

"Announcement of gambling: No. 69524 Green-Hand Village is chosen as the red team being the opposing side."

None of the previous robbers had fallen. All of them had been chosen to be the opponents, which caused them to wail again.

However, Roja would never show mercy to these Green-Hand Villages. Just now, these Green-Hand Villages had proved their barbarity with their actions. Only by completely destroying these Green-Hand Villages could he stop their plundering!

"Roja starts choosing his team members."

"Announcement of gambling: No. 7 Green-Hand Village was selected to the blue team being Roja's member."

"The team choosing is over. The blue team has two Green-Hand Villages in total, and the red team has twelve Green-Hand Villages in total."

"During the gambling, all of the Green-Hand Village who participated in the gambling will be unable to chat on the channel for the time being. The Green-Hand Village of each camp would open the team chat channel."

Finished? That was it?

The red team members were selected so quickly that no one had time to react. They had thought that this time Roja would be safer and choose a few more Green-Hand Villages.

But this time, Roja only chose No. 7 Green-Hand Village, where Sphinx was!

Two versus twelve! This time the gap was even greater than last time!

Although many people were still confused about Roja's choice and wanted to know what was on Roja's mind, the Green-Hand Villages that participated in the game had been cut off from the regional chat channel, and they had no way to know the specific situation of the two teams.

"Gentlemen, we have lost last time. This time, the opponent only has two Green-Hand Villages. We can't them win anyway! Everyone, I mean every one of you has to try your best! We can't let that group of barbarians slander the reputation of a gentleman!"

Chapter 71

In the red team's chat channel, the atmosphere was a little dignified. Even the strongest people wanted to drive the atmosphere and make everyone work harder, but there was not much response.

After the previous failure, everyone's mood was greatly damaged, especially Toby in No. 7274 Green-Hand Village. He hadn't woken up from a coma until now.

In the end, these strongest warriors had no choice but to announce helplessly that they were looking for magical beasts to hunt respectively. They must save 1000 points ahead of the blue team. Only in this way could they recover their losses.

"Mr. Roja, although I appreciate your courage, I think it's not safe for us to fight against 12 Green-Hand Villages with only two Green-Hand Villages. I think it's still risky."

Sphinx said to Roja on the chat channel.

"Mr. Sphinx, you don't have to worry at all. Although we have such doubts before, after the gambling, we absolutely trust Mr. Roja now!"

"Mr. Sphinx, do you know how many points Roja got last time? A total of 1000 points, and only Roja got more than 600 points!"

"Yes, that was a miracle. I will never believe that someone can kill so many magical beasts at one time in my life!"

Hearing the people's answers, Sphinx was a little stunned.

He had reached LV19, but he couldn't get 600 points in less than one day.

Roja was only LVl17, which made him even more surprised.

"Oh, my friend, are they telling the truth? Did you really get 600 points in the last round of the game?"

"Mr. Sphinx, to be exact, it was not 600 points, but 720 points. Because I haven't reached 800 points, I haven't received the third mysterious reward for the time being."

Roja replied with a shrug.

Sphinx couldn't help but scream. He secretly decided that he couldn't be against this Roja. He didn't want to make such a powerful enemy for himself and his Green-Hand Village.

"Oh my God! Mr. Roja, how much more shock can you bring to me? In that case, we will win this round of gambling!"

Roja replied confidently with a smiling face emoji.

"Of course. They are just some contemptible scoundrels. If we don't teach them a lesson, they will really think that they are the ruler of the world. Mr. Sphinx, let's win together."

Roja hung up. At this time, the countdown of the group gambling between the two teams just came to an end.

He figured out the direction and ran towards the core area of the silent grassland without looking back. There were not only a large number of silent demonic ants waiting for him to hunt but also his goal of this trip: the tiger king!

The closer he got to the core area, the quieter the world became. He could see the wind blowing leaves and flowers, but he couldn't hear anything. There were neither insects nor birds singing. It seemed that all life had been killed in this silence.

"This is really a silent world. Any living creature that dares to make a sound here must have been devoured by the silent demonic ants."

Roja murmured to himself. He raised his head and looked at the huge hill in front of him.

He could feel the low rumbling of the hill. Although it was silent, it definitely made people tremble with fear in this silent grassland.

The message from the soil told him that this was the nest of the silent demonic ants.

Even after he had killed most of them, the number of the silent demonic ants was still huge. Moreover, after he won the gambling, the number of ants had increased by 70%. 𝙡𝒊𝒃𝓻𝒆𝒂𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Roja slowly stepped forward. With the moonlight machete pointing at the front, he waved seven or eight wind blades in a flash.

The harsh wind whizzed, and the blades cut the outer wall of the hill.

This hill looked huge, but in fact, it was only an empty shell. The ants lived there and connected the ground and the underground into one as their nest.

The blade cut the hill, and countless silent demonic ants surged out in an instant. In addition to the ordinary ones that had been killed by Roja before, there were hundreds of larger ones that opened their wings and flew towards Roja.

These huge silent demonic ants played the roles of worker ants in the ant's nest. They were not only bigger in size, stronger in strength, but also higher in level.

However, these worker ants were like paper paste to Roja. Whether they flew or not, they could only turn into dust in front of the talent of the thick earth.

In this way, Roja hunted and killed the silent demonic ants all the way. He walked along the crack in the hill all the way to the ant's nest.

The message from the earth told Roja the location of the queen ant so that he wouldn't be lost in the complex ant's nest. The silent demonic ants couldn't stop Roja, and he didn't encounter real resistance until he reached the outside of the nest.

They were three giant silent demonic ants that were even larger than normal human beings. Their limbs were covered with hard claws, and the pair of mouthparts had completely transformed into their jaws, with sharp teeth.

It looked weird and disgusting.

Roja frowned and looked at the three giant silent demonic ants.

The three of them were LV18. Although most of the value of this race was low, the three were unexpectedly strong.

When Roja was in a daze for a moment, the guard of the demonic ants at the far left waved its bone claw. Roja subconsciously raised his knife and was pushed back a few meters by the heavy force.

Before he could adjust his position, the other two guards had already waved their bone claws and rushed over.

The talent of strength strengthening made these guards of the silent demonic ants own the astonishing strength. Even their inadvertent movements could leave a deep mark on the stone wall.

It was said that ants could lift things hundreds of times heavier than their own bodies. Roja finally realized how terrifying this power was in the battle.

In addition, the bone claws of the guards were extremely hard, which made it difficult for Roja to attack their bodies. The blade would always be blocked by their strong bone claws.

"Don't you like blocking? Then I will make you unable to block or fly!"

With a snort, Roja strode forward and came to the encirclement of the three guards.

Chapter 72

Happiness filled the eyes of the three guards of the demonic ants. They had never seen such a stupid human who dared to step into their encirclement voluntarily.

Raising their bone claws together, the guards were about to smash this reckless human into meat mud, but their claws awkwardly stopped in midair and did not even have time to fall. 𝙡𝙞𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝓶

An unimaginable storm suddenly lifted their thin bodies, tore their bodies into this narrow cave, and slammed them onto the rock wall.

The hurricane created by the wind controlling pierced through the solid soil above. This cave, which had existed for many years, had opened a huge sunroof at this moment.

The bodies of the three guards flew high along the hole at the top of the hole. Under the sweep of the hurricane, their bodies quickly turned into pieces and died.

Then was the last part of the ant's nest.

Roja took a deep breath and slowly walked into the dark cave in front of him. He used the fire controlling talent to light a ball of fire for himself.

The tunnel was narrow and long. A scorching smell came from the front, which made Roja cover his nose involuntarily.

When he reached the end of the tunnel and entered the nest of the queen ant, the scene in front of him made his scalp tingle.

It was more like a factory than a nest of creatures. Countless silent demonic ants were busy pulling out white eggs from the queen ant's huge body.

Roja could even see the creatures wriggling in the white eggs. Before they were even born, they had already struggled in the white eggs and made the movement of biting.

Wait, bite? Why did the silent demonic ant which was a kind of insect magical beast, do such private action like a beast?

Roja's scalp tingled. He raised the flame in his hand and looked at the position of the queen ant.

All of a sudden, he felt his stomach wriggling and almost spit out.

The queen ant was a silent demonic ant as long as two or three people, and some of its features even belonged to human beings. A huge iron cage was hung above the queen ant.

There was a huge tiger in the cage. Judging from the ferocious word king on its forehead, this weak tiger was obviously the tiger king that Roja had been looking for.

But now it was in danger. Although it was huge, in fact, only the thick tiger bone was still supporting its body. Its muscles had almost completely shrunk, leaving only a layer of dry hair wrapped in the outer layer.

Blood dripped from the lower part of the tiger king's body and fell into the queen ant's mouth.

Roja's hair stood on end. Now he understood why the three guards of the silent demonic ant at the entrance of the cave had evolved into beast-like jaws and claws.

That was not because of the natural evolution of the magical beasts in this world, but because the guards of the silent demonic ant were all the descendants of the queen ant and the tiger king!

The animalization of the white eggs was even better. Roja could even see that some of the embryos that hadn't been completely hatched had tiger-shaped heads in them.

When the tiger king saw Roja, it let out a weak growl from its mouth which was covered by an iron mask.

Only God knew where these silent demonic ants got these iron execution tools so that they could firmly bind a fierce tiger king that was at the top of the food chain and make it look like this.

Roja didn't want to stay here for even one more second. It was torture for him to look around.

The fire hit the ground hard, and the sea of fire instantly swallowed up the fertility factory.

Although the huge queen ant led the whole silent demon ant group and reached the level of LV19, in fact, it didn't have much battle ability, and its huge body restricted its movement.

Although it struggled to leave its delivery room and escape into the hard soil, it could not drag its huge belly anyway.

Roja caught up with the queen ant in two steps. In the light of the fire, the face of the queen ant unexpectedly showed a strange tenderness as if a woman walking out of a painting was ogling Roja.

Allurement!

This queen ant unexpectedly had such a talent. No wonder it could subdue the tiger king with such a weak fighting ability.

Roja had been highly concentrated all the time, and the scene just now had shocked him so much that the queen ant's allurement did not have much effect on him.

With a flash of the moonlight machete, the queen ant's head spun and flew into the flames.

Roja coughed in disgust. He still pondered the talent of allurement from the queen ant. Although this talent made him sick, he had to admit that it was a very good spirit control skill.

As for the hanging tiger, Roja put the cage into his storage ring.

The fire here was getting hotter and hotter, and all the silent demonic ants and the weird embryos were swept away. Roja didn't want to stay here and continue to smell the disgusting smell.

Roja guessed that although it was called the silent grassland, it was definitely not because of the silent demonic ant. Perhaps it was because the roar of the tiger king could make the whole grassland fall into silence.

Since the queen ant of the silent demonic ant was here, the tiger king was under the control of the allurement and the queen ant gave birth to the unusually strong silent demonic ants. Only then did it become a rule on the quiet grassland.

Roja still felt a little nauseated until he left the nest of the quiet ants far away. He really didn't want to think of the hell-like scene again.

He took out the tiger king from his storage ring. At this time, the tiger king was dying. The former king on the silent grassland was so weak that it could not even defeat a cat.

Looking at the tiger king's body, Roja couldn't help but feel sorry for it, but only a little.

With such a broken body, the tiger king had no chance to continue to live. It depended on how long it could last.

For the current tiger king, perhaps the greatest mercy was to give it a quick death.

Roja thought the same way. The moonlight machete in his hand slowly cut into the throat of the tiger king, cutting off its last trace of life.

Before it died, it cast a grateful glance at Roja.

Its eyes were full of relief.

Chapter 73

The tiger king slowly closed its eyes. The energy in its body was integrated into a white light and integrated into Roja's body.

As Roja's machete slowly slid down, the chest of the tiger king was pulled open. Although it was extremely weak, its heart was still strong.

Being held in Roja's hands, its heart was still beating fast. The strong force came from his palm, which made Roja's heart beat fast.

He also sighed in his heart that he was so lucky. If it weren't for the fact that the queen ant had caused such a disaster to the tiger king, it would be impossible for him to defeat it with his current strength.

"Mission completion notice: congratulations to Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village for obtaining the heart of the tiger king. The progress of the mission is 2/5."

"Roja killed the tiger king and got a level-C treasure box. He killed the queen ant and got a level-C treasure box."

"Announcement of gambling: the blue team accumulated 1000 points and won the gambling."

"Announcement of gambling: Roja has got more than 800 points in the gambling, and the original reward will be trebled. As the initiator of the gambling, Roja will get the doubled reward."

"Since Roja performed well in the gambling, we will reward him with two pieces of cards of the synthetic treasure chest, prestige points+10."

The announcement of the winning of the gambling spread all over the Green-Hand Village. Although the speed of Roja's winning last time was already amazing, this time, Roja's speed refreshed people's perception.

Two hours! It only took him two hours! Roja led the blue team to win the gambling!

Up to now, Sphinx's personal points didn't even have more than 100 points. Looking at the 880 points below the name of Roja on the points list, he really wanted to slap himself in the face to wake himself up.

880 points in two hours? Could a normal human achieve this? Maybe his level should be fake?

Just as Sphinx blinked his eyes and doubted his life, the Green-Hand Villages of the red team were hopeless.

Although they still had hope of winning in this gambling, most of them had been scared by Roja. They only hoped that Roja could reach 1000 points later so that they could live longer.

But it only took two hours for Roja to destroy their unrealistic fantasy. The failure came so fast that many people's 50 points were deducted before they could react.

This time not only the people of LV2 and LV3 suffered but also some people of LV6 began to turn into dust.

This was a punishment with a negative attribute. Then there were also all kinds of resource cuts. 70% of the resources of these Green-Hand Villages had been cut, and now another 70% had been cut. This was simply a catastrophe to them.

The magical beasts, which could be seen everywhere before, were now rare to find even if one all through the forest. Even if one killed a magical beast, the property he obtained was poor, let alone whether the treasure box could be released.

"How could this be? The evil killer won in only two hours!"

"More than 60% people of our Green-Hand Village have died! He's so horrible! He doesn't want to save our lives at all!"

"We can't offend Roja, never try to do that. We don't want to die. Please spare us!"

"Mr. Roja, we know we were wrong. From now on, you are our father. Please don't hurt us!"

There was a wail on the system chat channel. Those Green-Hand Villages that had been defeated by Roja were all beaten to lose their temper. Under the suppression of absolute power, they couldn't resist at all.

Looking at the ugly state of these robbers, it had to be said to be very pleasant. 𝙡𝙞𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Mr. Roja, how many surprises can you bring to me? Is this the power given to you by God? Look at those invaders. They are so ugly now in order to make up for what they have done!"

Sphinx said with a laugh. After the gambling, he had completely trusted Roja.

Although Roja's level was not as good as his, in terms of fighting ability, even several people like him together couldn't compare with Roja.

He had made up his mind to communicate more with Roja from now on. Perhaps Roja would be a great help to their Green-Hand Village in the future.

"Sphinx, my friend, I think we don't have to be so restrained in the future. This is what the robbers deserve. They deserve the punishment!"

Roja said with a smile.

He was in a good mood now. The robbers got their deserved punishment. Not only did he get the reward but his level had also risen to LV18 in the killing.

In addition to the properties obtained from the upgrade, with the fourfold rewards, he had obtained a total of 200 points in this gambling!

The other two cards of the synthetic treasure chest were synthesized into 20 level-E treasure chests by Roja. Although there was still a long way to go before Roja could synthesize a level-A treasure box, he had seen unlimited possibilities.

"Announcement: Roja took the lead to improve his prestige points to 20. Title: rookie king!"

"Hint: the rookie king can get the qualification to complete special tasks. At the same time, they have a better chance to get a better reward after killing the magical beasts."

The sudden announcement attracted a lot of exclamations.

"Oh my God! Roja's level should not be as high as that of Mr. Sphinx, right? He actually won the title of the rookie king!"

"Don't be silly. The rookie king is rated according to prestige points, and it has nothing to do with the ranking."

"No matter what, he's so handsome! The rookie king! What a domineering title! And he's qualified to carry out a special task!"

"Robbers, have you seen that? This is Roja! No matter how cruel and evil you are, there will always be such a hero to lead us!"

Sphinx couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly when he saw his prestige points with only 10.

People on the regional chat channel thought he was better than Roja, so his fighting capacity was better than Roja. In fact, he might not be able to hold on for a few minutes in front of Roja.

Roja was also surprised. He didn't expect that prestige points could be so useful besides buying things in the prestige store.

But he was more curious about what the special task was.

Chapter 74

"Announcement: there are already 20 strong warriors above LV15 in the No. 12 district. The public task starts."

"Announcement: from now on, all the defensive arrays of Green-Hand Villages will be withdrawn, and Green-Hand Villages will no longer be protected by the rules."

"Hint: from now on, a sky envoy with LV60 or above will appear in each Green-Hand Village a month later. The sky envoy would destroy all the wooden houses in Green-Hand Village."

"Hint: if one's wooden house is destroyed, he will lose the domicile of his Green-Hand Village. His identity will be reduced to an exile, and all kinds of properties will be reduced by 100 points."

"Public task: future castellan. This public task belongs to each Green-Hand Village. After completing this public task, you could get a new defensive array, which could effectively resist the punishment from the sky envoy."

"Hint: you can get a lot of rewards if you resist the sky envoy, and Green-Hand Village automatically updates one level. Defeating the sky envoy would double the reward." 𝓁𝘪𝘣𝘳ℯ𝒶𝘥.𝘤𝑜𝓂

The constant announcements caused an uproar on the chat channel of the whole region.

"Oh my God! How could this be? Our protection array has been cancelled, and there is even a sky envoy attacking us!"

"There is no way for us to live in this world. How can we survive in this way?"

"Our village has just lost 70% of the resources two times, and now we can't even see the magical beasts. How can we upgrade? That's the sky envoy of LV60. Even Mr. Sphinx can't stop it, right?"

"It's over. All is over. I'm going to die soon. I don't want to become an exile!"

"100 points? That's 100 points! If I subtract 100 points, I might die, right?"

"You're wrong. Not 100 points will be deducted totally, but 100 points will be deducted for each property. If you add it together, it will be five hundred points!"

Roja gritted his teeth. Such a condition was too harsh. Now in the No. 12 rookie district, only he and Sphinx were close to LV20, and the level of the sky envoy had reached LV60!

There was even the word above in the announcement, which meant that the rank of the sky envoy was definitely not only LV60. It might increase with the increase of the level of Green-Hand Village.

Looking at the wailing in the Green-Hand Village, Roja wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Now he didn't have time to care about other Green-Hand Villages. No matter what happened, their No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village must be safe! He had to do this task of the future castellan, not only to protect their Green-Hand Village but also to protect himself!

All of a sudden, he saw a small window under his public bar shaking.

He clicked on it and found that there was a tiny hint below his public task.

"Hint: as the rookie king, you can get extra task hints."

"Task hint: this task has something to do with the dark castle. If you want to enter the dark castle, you need to get the rune first."

Roja was overjoyed. He didn't expect such a good thing to happen.

He had already known about the dark castle, and he had collected all the runes he needed to enter. He could enter the dark castle at any time to complete the task of the future castellan.

He opened the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village chat channel, only to hear the wails of the crowd.

Although they were very confident in Roja, they still couldn't believe that Roja had the ability to defeat the sky envoy of LV60.

It had been almost a month since they came to the killing world. During this month, even the fastest person of the upgrade couldn't reach LV20.

In the month before the arrival of the sky envoy, perhaps no one would be able to cross forty levels in one step!

"My friends, don't worry. I have found some clues. I will try to complete this task soon."

Roja said after thinking for a while.

Everyone was excited and asked Roja about the details of the task.

"Mr. Roja, what's the purpose of this task? Does it really want us to become exiles and die?"

"Where is the place for completing the task? We can team up!"

"Yes, yes, this is everyone's business. If we can finish this task earlier, our village can get the protection array as soon as possible, and also resist the terrifying sky envoy!"

Roja said with a smile.

"There are many fierce magical beasts with dark nature in them. Their grades are all above LV15. What's more, they have the ability to reduce the grade of the targets."

Everyone exclaimed. They knew that this task must be very difficult, but they didn't expect it to be so difficult.

They had never heard of the magical beasts that could make people's levels decline!

"I can go with you. Although my current level is only LV16, I believe with my talent, I can definitely help you."

Edward's chatting window was shaking in front of Roja. He even transferred his talent panel to Roja.

Roja was taken aback. Edward's talent was tailor-made for this task!

Level-A talent: purification! Skill: the light of purification!

This was a unique level-A talent! If it weren't for the fact that the attack power of it was not good, Edward would have been the person who stood at the top of the Green-Hand Village.

However, in this mission of the dark castle, this purification talent was simply an advantage.

All the magical beasts there were dark and evil, with the talent of purification. All the dark magical beasts were trivial in front of Edward!

"Edward, my friend. You know what? This task is tailor-made for you. Besides you, I think of another person."

Edward laughed and called out the same name as Roja: Lelly!

Now Lelly's level had reached LV16. Although it was not as good as Roja's, its unique thunder talent was definitely the nemesis of the dark and evil magical beasts!

"Well, my friends, if I want to take you two there, we still need to complete one more thing. It's related to whether the three of us can enter the dark castle together."

Roja said to Edward and Lelly.

"The place to complete the task is the dark castle in the fog forest. If we want to go in, we need to get the magical runes first. I already have them, all we need is that you should get the magical runes."

Chapter 75

"I'm in the fog forest now. I can wait for you two at the entrance."

Lelly replied soon. He had been staying in the fog forest with Kira these days, the distance he needed to move is not very far. And Edward was always around the fog forest, so the two of them could meet first.

Roja agreed and hurried to the fog forest.

Now the sun was about to set. They could start hunting the evil ape when they gathered together.

"I didn't expect that the three of us would have the chance to hunt together. I thought Roja wouldn't come back to this forest after he was promoted to LV18."

Edward teased. The three of them couldn't help but burst into laughter when they thought of the situation when they fought against Mundo.

"Well, let's stop gossiping. We came to the fog forest because the dark castle in the task is here. And the way to enter the dark castle is also in this forest."

Roja clapped his hands and said to Lelly and Edward. He drew the appearance of the evil ape on the ground with his fingers and pointed at the picture to them.

"This is the most basic magical beast in the dark castle. When I met them, I was only LV15. Their talent is called dark erosion, which is a kind of smog talent. If you are hit, your blood vitality, energy and experience points will decrease."

"You must pay attention to their talent. Once you are hit by the smoke, only by killing them can the experience points stop decreasing. And I haven't entered the dark castle before. I don't know how many strange magical beasts are inside."

Roja took a deep breath and told them.

"Although your talent has a strong restraining effect on the dark creatures, your level is not high enough. Once you are in danger, I will let you retreat. You will never turn around!"

Roja looked at Edward and Lelly. He breathed a sigh of relief until they nodded seriously.

The situation in the dark castle must be extremely complicated. He didn't want Edward and Lelly to risk their lives to go deeper with him.

He was sure that he could escape, but he was not confident to do that with Edward and Lelly.

"Don't worry. I know what I'm capable of. If something happens, we won't cause you any trouble."

Lelly said loudly, shrugging his shoulders. But there was also a trace of unwillingness in his eyes. He didn't want Roja to face the danger alone, and he didn't want Roja to undertake all the matters related to the survival of the whole Green-Hand Village.

"Well, since you all understand, let's go. Remember, the evil ape likes corpses with blood. We only need to attract eight more apes to get runes for you to enter the dark castle."

Roja urged. Their goal tonight was to enter the dark castle, not to hunt the evil ape. If they attracted too much, it would affect their task progress.

As the night fell, the three of them quietly lurked in the fog forest. In the center of the forest in front of them, a magical beast's chest was cut. The smell of the blood slowly drifted away along with the wind in the forest.

"Pay attention to the top of our heads. The evil ape usually doesn't go down the tree to move. Be careful not to be attacked from above."

Roja whispered to his two companions.

Edward and Lelly agreed and bent over the grass more carefully.

The leaves above his head shook. Edward looked up carefully.

He covered his mouth with his hand all of a sudden, trying hard to control himself from making any sound. There were a large number of green sparkles, looking fiercely in the direction of the magical beast's corpse.

"They are coming! Wait a minute. You can attack as soon as you see my action. Remember not to be touched by the black smoke they give out. We have to guarantee that we will enter the dark castle in good condition."

Roja said to his two friends.

Those evil apes were already crazy because of the stimulation of the blood. They jumped down from the tree and crazily tore the bloody corpses.

Roja narrowed his eyes and looked at the treetop with the help of the talent of visual mutation. Although these evil apes were powerful, they didn't seem to have a high IQ. They didn't even leave any vigilant evil apes to stand sentry.

But it also gave Roja great convenience.

In the darkness, a light flashed and extinguished, enveloping all the evil apes.

Illusory shock forcefully dragged these dark creatures into the illusion. Even if they had strong talent, they wouldn't be able to release it in a few seconds.

Lelly's movements were very fast. The moment Roja used his skill, he smashed the big hammer in his hand on the ground. Countless bolts of thunder formed a brilliant and dazzling shield and pushed the evil apes into the sky.

There was a circle of bright lightning around their bodies. The strong suppressive effect made these evil apes unable to move even if they woke up from the illusions.

"God said that light is needed, so there is light in the world. It can break through darkness and devil, and purify the world!"

Edward sang in a high voice, holding a gorgeous wand in his hand and wearing a robe on him.

A dazzling light was emitted from the top of the wand, forming a brilliant nebula in the sky above the fog forest.

Streaks of light fell from the sky and sprinkled on the bodies of these evil apes.

The evil apes roared. They swayed their limbs, looking funny and ridiculous under the light. The dark smoke around them was fading away under the light.

Together with their bodies, they turned into nothingness because of the light of purification.

This time, they killed 12 evil apes. As the final killer, Edward gained more experience. However, at this time, he looked at the wand in his hand with confusion. 𝙡𝓲𝙗𝙧𝓮𝒂𝒅.𝙘𝓸𝒎

"It's strange. Normally, this light doesn't have much effect on those magical beasts, and sometimes it can even help the magical beasts to dispel the negative state. Why does it become so powerful this time?"

Roja said with a smile, patting Edward on the shoulder.

"Don't forget that not all the magical beasts are dark. Your talent for purification naturally has little effect on those magical beasts who are not that dark."

He walked forward and picked up the pieces of magical runes on the ground.

"Well, let's go."

Chapter 76

Standing in front of the dark castle, Edward and Lelly couldn't help swallowing. It was the first time they had seen this dark castle, and the heavy black air made them tremble.

"I want to say it again. Once there is anything that can't be handled, I will let you go. You must leave immediately. Do you understand?"

Roja took a deep breath. In fact, when he looked at the castle now, he still had a feeling that he was going to be devoured.

He even had a feeling of flinch in his heart. He wanted to leave now and never come here again. But then he suppressed his thoughts.

This was related to the fate of the whole Green-Hand Village and himself! If he didn't do it, no one else in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village could do it.

Although Edward and Lelly were not weak, they were still much weaker than him. He didn't want to be destroyed by the sky envoy because he couldn't get the protection of the array.

"Well, show the magical runes. We're going in."

Finally, Roja took a deep breath, took out the magical runes and walked into the dark castle.

This time, the invisible barrier did not stop his actions. When the magical runes touched the barrier, all sorts of mysterious runes began to appear on the surface.

Then, a huge attraction came and dragged Roja's body, instantly entering the area of the dark castle.

Edward and Lelly were stunned by the scene in front of them. They had seen with their own eyes that Roja was dragged into the barrier, but after that, they could not see Roja. They could only see the huge dark castle shaking slightly through the barrier.

At this point, they naturally couldn't retreat. They raised the magical runes at the same time and entered the area of the dark castle.

The cold and moist breath wrapped around Roja's body, making him shiver involuntarily.

The rotten breath was like a viper, firmly attached to his body. He wanted to escape, but there was no way to leave, let alone expel this feeling from his body.

Roja was highly resistant. Even in such a terrible environment like the insect valley, he could not be affected at all. However, after entering the dark castle, he felt uncomfortable in an instant. It could be imagined how strict the environment here was.

Then he saw Edward and Lelly. The two of them didn't seem to be affected after they walked into the dark castle.

This made Roja a little depressed. But after thinking for a while, he felt relieved. After all, these two people's talents were able to restrain the darkness, so they would be less affected.

When he was about to say something, he suddenly felt the earth shake violently, almost lifting them up.

He turned his head and saw a cloud of black smoke gushing out from the ground around the dark castle, with countless dark red sparkles, which were like the demon in the dark night, making people tremble with fear.

The sound of bones rubbing made people's teeth ache. In a few seconds, they had arrived in front of them. 𝓁𝑖𝘣𝘳ℯ𝘢𝘥.𝒸ℴ𝑚

Only then did Roja see clearly the shadow wrapped in the black mist. It was clearly a human skeleton!

Those red sparkles were the flames burning in skeletons' eyes, and the earth trembled when skeletons stepped on the ground. Although they didn't have weapons in their hands, the dark aura condensed on their palms was no different from the sharpest weapons.

"Push Lelly away!"

Roja had no time to scream but had to raise the moonlight machete and collide with the claws of skeletons.

The heavy force hit the moonlight machete, making the solid weapon groan in pain.

Roja's arms went numb and he couldn't stand steadily. Fortunately, Edward caught him behind him, so he didn't let him fall to the ground.

Although Lelly was shocked by skeletons at the beginning, he had rich combat experience. He had already reacted when Roja stopped those skeletons. He waved the heavy hammer and formed a circle of thunder around the three people's bodies.

The dazzling thunder surrounded the three people, and all the skeletons that came into contact with the thunder were crushed into pieces.

However, this was not able to stop these skeletons. They struggled and tried their best to enter the thunder.

Skeletons were like a tide hitting the thunder. Lelly's forehead was covered with cold sweat. It was hard to tell the level of these skeletons, but the consumption caused by them doubled.

"God, may your radiance turn into blessings and purify the evil in front of me!"

Edward sang quickly. The wand in his hand drew an arc and covered around the dim thunder, which helped Lelly resist the endless skeletons.

Roja felt lucky that he came with Edward and Lelly this time. Otherwise, he would have to withdraw when facing the skeletons group for the time being if he was alone.

"Let's get into the castle! We can't waste any more time here, or we will not be able to bear it for the time being!"

Roja shouted and quickly took out several herbs and put them into Lelly's mouth, which made Lelly's pale face look better.

Although the thunder and the light of purification moved slowly, they finally approached the gate of the dark castle.

The closer they got to the castle, the fiercer the attacks of skeletons became. Fortunately, Roja had enough herbs to support them to walk to the front of the castle.

Even so, Lelly's thunder was about to go out.

Those broken skeletons couldn't provide energy for them like the magical beasts. On the contrary, after they were broken, they would soon gather together again as if they could never be killed.

Only when skeletons were completely shrouded in Edward's light of purification would the black gas fade away and turn into dust.

When they finally arrived at the gate of the castle, a skeleton's head finally broke through the dim thunder.

"You... You can only stay here forever! You can't leave!"

The skeleton opened its jaw and roared in the sound of broken bones. The red flames in its eyes were gradually extinguished as if they had turned into liquid, flowing down along the broken bones and dropping on the ground.

Roja and the others collapsed at the gate of the castle. The skeletons were slowly sinking into the soil less than three meters away from them.

It was not until the scarlet eyes disappeared that they heaved a long sigh of relief.

"This place is too dangerous... Is this really the mission we can complete now?"

Lelly gasped heavily.

"I think since the rules are announced in this world, there must be a way to complete it. If it is announced at this time, it can't be a task that we can't complete."

Roja said as he gently stroked the heavy gate.

Chapter 77

The three of them rested at the gate for half an hour before regaining their strength. After eating Roja's herbs, Lelly felt much better.

"Well, let's hurry up and enter the castle. There are still many difficulties waiting for us ahead."

Roja said to Edward and Lelly. He pushed the gate open and walked in first.

When they entered the dark castle, the three of them were stunned. Although they had already known that this place was not an ordinary place, they did not expect that everything here was so similar to No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village.

Even the road in front of them was the same as the road of the village's exit. Roja could even find his wooden house according to the route here.

"Have you noticed it? This place is so strange. It seems to be the place we have been before."

Lelly said unconsciously.

"Don't be silly. This is the same layout as our No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. Look at the roads and houses here. Although they are broken, all the layout is the same as that of our Green-Hand Village! It's so..."

Edward gave Lelly a push and stammered. He was too shocked to continue.

Roja sighed and continued.

"It's like the damaged No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, isn't it?"

Roja squatted down and gently touched the ground. The soil told him that this land had existed for at least thousands of years, even longer than these buildings.

"It seems that we need to reevaluate this place. This place is definitely not as simple as the secret place that we thought at the beginning. I think this may be the previous No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village."

Roja stood up and said seriously.

"What do you mean by the previous? Is there another No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village before us in this world?"

Edward asked curiously. Shouldn't they be the first group of humans to come here? If not, then what was it that came here before them?

"We are not the first batch to come here. Maybe other people from other worlds have also come here before us. Otherwise, where did the skeletons come from?"

Roja said slowly, feeling a little creepy.

"This should be the last No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, but because they failed to resist the attack of the sky envoy, everyone's wooden house was damaged and finally the whole Green-Hand Village became like this."

"As for those human beings whose wooden houses were damaged and have become exiles can't enter this dark castle again, because they have lost their residence as human beings, so they have become skeletons, which are driven by the dark castle, wandering outside."

Edward and Lelly felt a chill run down their spines.

Thinking of the crazy and painful look of skeletons outside the dark castle, thinking that their souls would be imprisoned outside the dark castle forever after it was destroyed, a chill came from the depths of his soul.

"This is too terrifying. We must complete this task. I would rather die than become the skeletons outside the castle! Let alone my soul will be confined here!"

Edward groaned in pain. He shook his head hard, trying to expel the shadows of skeletons from his mind. But the more he did so, the clearer the blood-red skeletons became in his mind.

"Calm down. These are just our conjectures. Our fate will not be like theirs. We must complete this task!"

Roja said, putting his hand on Edward's shoulder.

He needed to give his partners some confidence. Now that they had just entered the dark castle, it was definitely not the time for them to retreat.

If they were discouraged here, then the following tasks would be impossible.

"Roja is right. We shouldn't be depressed. The scene in front of us can't be our future. We have to work harder to complete the task. We can't become the previous No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village!"

Lelly raised his head and said firmly.

The three of them pulled themselves together and walked along the street towards the village.

,m The layout of this place was completely the same as that of their Green-Hand Village, so they didn't need to find a direction to go to the center of the village.

Along the way, they saw many evil apes jumping between the houses, but these magical beasts didn't seem to have any intention of attacking them. They just followed them all the way as if they were watching their movements.

"These guys are so annoying. I always feel like I'm being watched. Can we kill them first?"

Lelly couldn't help but raise his hammer and said to Roja. 𝓁𝑖𝑏𝑟𝘦𝒶𝘥.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"No, we are here to complete the task, not to kill the magical beasts. If you want to fight, there will be a bigger one to fight you soon."

Roja stopped Lelly. The ground under his feet shook slowly, bringing him the information in front of him.

In front of them was a huge evil ape.

Compared to the other evil apes, this one was seven meters tall. The muscles and hair on its arms glowed with an iron-gray luster, and the power contained within it could not help but make people tremble.

"Magical beast: mutated demonic ape. Grade: LV17. Blood vitality: 1500, strength: 850, energy: 500, defense: 500, agility:120. Talent: strength madness, talent: shock. Explosive rate: 5%."

Roja stopped and whispered to his friends.

"Be careful, this is the mutated demonic beast. It is so powerful that we can't fight it head-on. I'll help him to attract his attention, and you two should try your best to fight. When I send a signal, you must jump off the ground anyway."

Edward and Lelly nodded at the same time. Although they didn't know how Roja got the information about the magical beast, they didn't ask much in the battle.

The mutated demonic ape also found Roja and the others. It didn't rush over immediately, but raised its two arms and smashed them hard to the ground.

Just as it fell to the group, Roja shouted, "Jump!"

Edward and Lelly jumped up at the same time, only to see the ground under their feet break like a cobweb the moment they jumped up.

Chapter 78

The ground rose, and the jagged rocks turned this area into a cage. If it weren't for Roja's command, Edward and Lelly would have been imprisoned in this stone forest.

Flesh strengthening helped Roja resist the negative effect caused by the shock skill of the evil ape. That was why he decided to face the pressure of the evil ape alone.

Among the three of them, only he was able to avoid being affected by the skill of the evil ape. It was the most appropriate for him to attract the attack.

Seeing that a small human dared to show off in front of it, the evil ape's blood-red eyes shone with ferocity. It raised its arm and tried to grab Roja again. It was trying to tear Roja apart.

But when it put its hand halfway out, it felt a pain in the palm. As Roja's body moved, he used the moonlight machete to leave two scars on its palm, and at the same time, he injected poison into its body.

The evil ape's body trembled, but its strong physique and the dark energy inside its body had neutralized the poison of Roja and discharged the poison out of its body right away.

"Now is the time. Attack!"

Roja looked at the stiff body of the evil ape and shouted.

It was not that the poison didn't affect the evil ape at all, but it could still cause the body of the mutated demonic ape to pause.

Edward and Lelly also seized the opportunity to cover the evil ape with thunder and the light of purification.

Strong black air rose. The evil ape waved its arm and stumbled towards Roja. It still wanted to kill Roja at the last moment of its life.

With a flash of the moonlight machete, a wound appeared in the evil ape's throat, almost cutting off its entire head. The huge body of the evil ape slowly fell to the ground, and the red light in its eyes gradually extinguished.

"Congratulations for killing the mutated demonic ape. Trial value +20."

"The current professional progress: 100/100. The judge profession has been promoted to the first level. Automatically obtained professional talent: the light of trial."

"The level-B talent: the light of trial. A light is summoned from the center of the user, which has the trial effect. Hit by the light of trial, one's all properties will decrease by 100 points, and at the same time, it will suffer double damage from the user."

Of course, these instructions only existed on Roja's board, they were not shared to Edward and Lelly.

Roja was stunned. He couldn't believe that the promotion of his profession would bring him such a huge increase. All the attributes dropped by 100 points, which meant that the level of his enemy had been directly reduced! And it worked in the range of his attack.

Although Roja was surprised, he quickly adjusted his facial expression. He didn't want Edward and Lelly to see his profession had changed.

"I didn't expect the first magical beast we met after entering the dark castle to be so ferocious. Although it was the mutated demonic beast, it seems to be the most basic one, right? If we keep going forward, I don't know how many magical beasts are waiting for us."

Lelly and Edward ran to Roja and said.

"Now we have to be more careful. The magical beast is within eyeshot. What I'm worried about is whether more magical beasts will be hidden in the dark."

Edward said worriedly. Even when the three of them gathered, he was still maintaining the activated state of the wand, guarding the surroundings with the light of purification.

"I don't think magical beasts will attack us for the time being. This magical beast should carry the final guidance of the dark castle mission."

Roja said as he picked up a copper ball with mysterious patterns.

This copper ball exploded after killing the evil ape. It was neither a treasure box nor an item, so it could only be the guidance about the mission.

The announcement resounded through the whole chat channel as he crushed the copper ball.

"Announcement: Roja has got the task guidance. The future castellan task of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village has been completely activated. The progress of the task could be checked in the public bar at any time."

Another paragraph appeared in front of Roja and the other two.

"Mission guidance: enter the center of the castle and defeat the envoys of Satan and get their seals, then release Satan on the underground altar. After defeating Satan, the whole castle would be purified."

"Hint: after defeating Satan, you only need to put the copper ball on his heart, and the copper ball will become a certificate of the future castellan."

"Hint: this is a time-limited task. If the task is not completed before dawn, it will be regarded as a failure and the copper ball will disappear automatically."

"Hint: the envoys of Satan and Satan are doughty. Those who are not strong enough, please leave at once."

The three of them looked at each other and felt even more stressed. But at the same time, they felt a little relaxed.

At least they finally found the real way to complete this task, so they wouldn't do that without knowing anything.

And with this information, their progress would always be faster than those Green-Hand Villages who knew nothing about it.

"You are the sixth one who has got the copper ball in all Green-Hand Villages. Please finish the task as soon as possible. For the top 100 castles, the initial properties would increase by 50%, and for the top 10 castles, the initial properties would increase by 100%."

"As the top 100 castle owner, you can get a total of 100 points for all kinds of properties and a level-B treasure box. As the top 10 castle owner, you can get a total of 200 points and a level-A treasure box with all kinds of properties."

The generous reward made Roja and the others swallow hard.

Now they were the sixth to get the copper ball. If they could really finish it in the top ten, it would add one hundred percent of the initial properties to the castle! Not to mention that the creator still had the reward for 200 points of the property and a level-A treasure box!

The three of them looked at each other and saw the passion in each other's eyes. The generous reward gave them great motivation. The three of them were eager to go to the deepest part of the castle and kill Satan now.

"Hint: since No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village is the only Green-Hand Village that has won two rounds of gambling, the degree of difficulty of this public task will automatically double. All the dark creatures had doubled their strength." 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝙧𝙚𝓪𝒅.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Hint: in this public task, No. 1002548, Green-Hand Village is the only Green-Hand Village whose degree of difficulty of the task has doubled."

"Hint: if the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village can complete the task with double difficulty to build the castle, all the rewards will be doubled."

Chapter 79

As the news spread, Roja and the others' expressions became complicated. They had thought that they could finish the task faster than other Green-Hand Villages after they got the copper ball ahead of time.

But they didn't expect that their task was two times more difficult than the other Green-Hand Villages' tasks, and it was the only Green-Hand Village that the task had been increased in difficulty. In that case, they might fall behind in speed.

"Damn it! I didn't expect our task to be two times more difficult than the other Green-Hand Villages. In that case, we have to compete with all the Green-Hand Villages for the top ten. This is too harsh."

Roja said, massaging between his eyebrows. Edward and Lelly also looked serious.

The difficulty of the task was two times higher than that of the other Green-Hand Villages, and the enemies they had to face would also be two times stronger than the others. In this case, not to mention getting the top ten positions, whether they could complete the task or not was a question.

But on the other hand, if they could get the top ten, they would get two times the reward of the other Green-Hand Villages. Moreover, even if they only got the tenth place, their value would definitely be higher than first place.

But could we really get the tenth place? Or could we really become the top 100 villages to build castles?

Roja was not sure.

However, the direction they were heading had been decided. If they wanted the Green-Hand Village to survive, they had to keep moving forward. Even if the difficulty of the task would be increased by two times, they still had to complete it.

Only strength could support them to go on!

"Let's go. It's meaningless to struggle with the two times difficulty of the task now. The world will never cancel its decision. If it doesn't work, we have to do it again tomorrow."

Roja took a deep breath and patted Edward and Lelly.

"Yes, if we just stand there and do nothing, even if the difficulty is half of the original, we can't complete the task. Only when we move forward can we see the hope of victory!"

Edward shook his head and tried to get rid of those thoughts.

The three of them continued to walk along the road. The innermost part of the castle should be the center of Green-Hand Village. 𝙡𝙞𝙗𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝓶

In the center of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, there was a flat square, and in this abandoned Green-Hand Village, it would not change.

"Click."

A light sound broke the silence in the village. The three people immediately became nervous. They leaned back and guarded the surroundings.

However, they did not find anything unusual. The darkness around them did not change at all as if the light sound just now came from an illusory world.

"It's so strange. I heard it."

Lelly asked doubtfully. But before he finished his words, he felt a cold touch on his leg, as slippery as a snake.

At the same time, the cold touch seemed to go along his legs towards his nerves. In a moment, Lelly only felt that his blood vitality, energy, and even experience points had fallen a lot.

"Dark erosion! There is something in the black fog!"

Lelly screamed. He remembered the talent Roja had told him could cause the decline of his blood vitality, energy and experience points. Wasn't this his current situation!

Roja and Edward also found something unusual. The two of them quickly turned their heads and put Lelly in the middle, enveloping the three people's bodies with the light of purification.

But even so, the black fog on Lelly's body did not disappear. A painful expression appeared on his face. One of his legs had turned purple-black, and countless tentacle-like lines were approaching his heart.

"Roja, is this really the dark erosion? My light of purification can only slow down the spreading of erosion, but it can't completely purify it. It's more like a poison than a talent!"

Edward said to Roja nervously after checking Lelly's condition. They couldn't even see clearly what had attacked them in the black fog.

If the dark erosion could only be stopped after the user was killed, then at this speed, Kelly would definitely die!

"Edward, you go back to the place where we came with Lelly. I will find a way to deal with the dark erosion. You retreat to the castle gate and immediately use the light of purification to cover the two of you. If I haven't come back before dawn, you should leave immediately."

Roja took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice.

"Visual mutation has provided him with an extraordinary vision. He can see the human-shaped object wrapped in snakes in darkness.

Edward and Lelly couldn't handle it. Even if their talents had a restraining effect, it was still impossible to surpass the class of level and talent.

"But."

Edward wanted to say something more, but Roja quickly turned around and glared at him.

"What do you want to say? You are just a burden to me now! Have you forgotten what you promised me? Lelly's life is in your hands! Run!"

Edward was stunned. Then he gritted his teeth, quickly took off his robe with the light of purification and threw it to Roja.

"Listen up, this is a level-4 item! The light of purification contained in it can resist the attack of the dark which is four-level higher than the user! You must come back alive. If you die, I will curse you every day!"

After saying that, Edward ran all the way to the gate with Lelly in his arms without looking back.

Putting on the robe, Roja felt a warm power enveloping his body. In this dark and wet environment, he was as shiny as the sun.

"Ha ha, nice man. In order to let your companions escape, you chose to stay here? You should have already seen me, right? I think your talent should be related to vision. Unfortunately, you are going to die soon!"

A grating voice came from the mist as if two pieces of iron were rubbing against each other.

Then, a tall and thin man walked out of the black fog. He was wearing broken armor, and countless colorful snakes grew in his body instead of his flesh.

The black fog seemed to come out of his body, and there was even a smile on his dry and rotten face.

He smelled the scent of Roja's blood vitality. For a corpse like him, it was no different from the deadliest poison, which made him crazy. He couldn't wait to tear Roja's throat apart right now.

Chapter 80

"Luddy, the former rookie king. State: assimilated by Satan and became his envoy. Blood vitality: 2000, energy: 800, strength: 400, defense: 300, agility:200. Talent: Viper. Skill: dark erosion. The explosive rate: 0."

The information provided by the Eyes of God made Roja gasp. He had never expected that the first Satan envoy he met in this dark castle was the former rookie king!

Although he had become a corpse now and no one could tell his level, the strong dark aura around him showed his strong fighting ability.

"Luddy, you used to be the rookie king, didn't you? I believe that you would make the same choice when your partner is in danger."

Roja asked tentatively. He wanted to know if the former rookie king still had a human conscience.

However, after hearing Roja's words, Muddy turned his head in confusion. He rubbed his ears with his hands and said with his eyes twisted.

"Luddy? Are you calling me? And what is the rookie king? Why haven't I heard of it? I'm Satan envoy! Don't try to shake my mind with these words!"

Luddy pointed at Roja with a withered finger. Black smoke gushed out from his fingers and came to Roja in an instant. A colorful viper materialized from the black smoke and bit Roja's throat.

Roja waved the moonlight machete and divided the viper into two. He sighed. It seemed that after being manipulated by Satan, these former human beings had lost their humanity and became the killing envoy who only listened to Satan.

He had just dodged the attack of a viper. As he turned around, he saw hundreds of colorful giant snakes gathering on the ground.

It seemed that the attack Lelly had just received was from these giant snakes.

At this moment, Luddy's body became somewhat illusory, it was might because the vipers had left him, which made his body look more like a skeleton.

"You must be afraid of the darkness. Just die in the darkness! Satan is very happy to see you join!"

Luddy raised his arms as if he was chanting the gods. His rotten face was devout and proud so that the killing intent hidden in his words was somewhat noble.

"I'm sorry. I'm not interested in your Satan. I'm not here to be his servant. I'm here to free you from this endless torture!"

Roja's body slowly appeared in the embrace of the vipers. The LV4 robe that Edward gave him gave off a dazzling halo. The light of purification made these vipers transformed from darkness not dare to approach Roja's body.

"Purification! Damn it! How could you have this ability?"

Luddy roared, puffing out a cloud of black smoke from his mouth and attached it to Roja in an instant.

Dark erosion!

Roja couldn't be more familiar with this kind of talent, but now it had lost its original effect on him.

He raised his hand gently as if patting off the dust on his clothes, patting away the dark erosion of Luddy. To his astonishment, Roja gave him a perfect smile.

"Dark erosion? Is this the favor given by Satan? Or is it a curse to you? Since you like your Satan so much, I will let you feel his embrace again!"

The same black fog came out from Roja's hand, but the dark erosion he made was more violent than that of Luddy. Luddy didn't even have much space for escaping, then he was covered by the dark erosion.

"No! That's impossible! How could you do that? Satan won't bless you! I'm a citizen of him. It's just dark erosion. How can you hurt me? Ah!"

Luddy shouted hysterically. He thought he was a citizen of Satan, so he wouldn't be affected by the dark erosion. But to his surprise, he found that the darkness in Roja's hand was not the same as his.

His dark body began to collapse under the effect of the dark erosion. His blood vitality and energy were dropping crazily, which made his soul seem to fly out of his body.

"Master Satan! No! He is going to be defeated, but he gave us grace and gave us eternal life. No, it shouldn't be like this! Our world! Our home!"

There seemed to be two personalities tearing apart in Luddy's mind. He was mad. He was sad. As if he was fighting with himself, completely losing his arrogance just now.

"No, our home was given by Satan! The real intruder in front of us is supposed to be destroyed! Yes, it must be like this! You! You can go to hell!"

At last, Luddy roared with all his strength. It seemed that the manipulated personality in his mind had the upper hand.

As Luddy waved his hands, the colorful vipers on the ground seemed to have been injected with a shot of stimulant. They were no longer afraid of the light of purification. They bit Roja hard and injected venom into Roja's body desperately. 𝑙𝒾𝒷𝘳𝑒𝑎𝘥.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"Ha ha! That's right. You must die under the sharp teeth of the vipers. Ha ha, here is the thing. Go to hell."

It seemed that Luddy had lost all his strength. He knelt on the ground with his mouth wide open. He wanted to laugh, but there were tears in his rotten eyes.

"No, I won't die. You are the one who should die. Or you should have died long ago."

The sudden light in front of him made Luddy raise his head. He was surprised to find that Roja was right in front of him.

The vipers surrounding Roja were nowhere to be found, and the light in front of him was from the moonlight machete in Roja's hand.

"Why did you?"

Roja interrupted him before he could say anything.

"Satan is the devil who destroyed your village. Or you have heard of his other name? The sky envoy!"

"You have already been destroyed. Your soul is just a tool controlled by Satan. I'm here to free you. I'll kill Satan and free your souls."

Roja said slowly, cutting the moonlight machete into his neck.

"Just go. It's not just your soul. I'll evolve into hundreds of millions of souls that are imprisoned by this dark castle. This place will become a new home."

Roja's machete finally cut off his neck.

There was a flash of gratitude and relief in Luddy's eyes. Although he couldn't say anything, his eyes had shown everything.

Before he died, he was no longer the Satan envoy, but a rookie king named Luddy!

Chapter 81

Broken bones scattered on the ground, and the soul of the former rookie king finally obtained temporary peace.

In this dark castle, as long as his soul was not really purified, no matter how many times he died, his soul would never be able to rest in peace. The curse of Satan would constantly pull his soul and never extinguish.

A white light gathered in Roja's body. Although the level of Luddy had been blurred, he still provided Roja with a large number of experience points.

Roja stepped forward and picked up a round seal from the pile of corpses. On the seal was a ferocious giant snake. It seemed that this was Luddy's dark seal.

In that case, the dark erosion on Lelly should be removed.

Roja heaved a sigh of relief. A new message popped up in front of him.

"Hint: you have obtained the first dark seal, and you are seventh to obtain the dark seal in all Green-Hand Villages. At present, 12 people of all Green-Hand Villages had obtained the final task guidance. This task progress broadcast was broadcast every ten minutes."

He was the seventh to obtain the dark seal. It seemed that he had to speed up, otherwise he couldn't make it to the top ten.

Thinking of this, Roja carefully put the dark seal of Luddy into the storage ring.

After walking along the road for less than a hundred meters, the thick dark fog in front of Roja disappeared and was replaced by a shining starry sky.

Under the starry sky, a human with armor was sitting cross-legged, and beside him stood a broad heavy sword. From the mottled marks on the sword, it was not difficult to deduce the heavy history that the sword carried.

"Since you are here, it means that Luddy has failed. Human, you are very good. You should have come here earlier. Satan is very welcome to people like you."

Before Roja approached, he heard a heavy voice coming from the mask.

He seemed to be a kind elder or a tempered warrior. Just hearing the voice, he had an illusion that he was baptized by the bell.

"You can choose to join us. Satan sincerely invites you to join the brilliant evolution. We are born in the dark night and will become a race more advanced than humans. This will be the first step for us to enter the world." 𝑙𝒾𝘣𝘳𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝓂

The knight stood up. He was very burly, more than two meters tall.

The moment he reached out his hand to Roja, he felt an overwhelming sense of oppression as if the world around him was squeezing Roja's body, forcing him to step forward and shake hands with the knight.

But Roja knew that he couldn't retreat to the pressure of the dark world. Once he obeyed the will of the dark world and walked forward to shake hands with the knight, it would be equivalent to giving all his soul to Satan.

At that time, his soul would be imprisoned in the dark world. Like this knight, he would give up everything for an illusory mission, or for the wish of evolution.

"Well, don't you want to? Not everyone will be welcomed by Satan. If you can't be his friend, then you will be his enemy. Have you made up your mind?"

Roja suddenly burst into laughter under great pressure.

The moonlight machete cut through the darkness and lit up the face of the knight hidden under the mask.

"Enemy? Don't forget that Satan was once the enemy that destroyed your Green-Hand Village. You used to be a rookie king. Don't you understand the meaning of the sky envoy?"

The knight was stunned, and a thoughtful look appeared on his old face.

"The sky envoy? I, I have this impression. But the sky envoys are evil, and Satan is our guidance! Since the day I followed him, I have sworn that I will use my sword to fight for him!"

Roja sighed. It seemed that this knight had been completely brainwashed. Although he seemed to have some memories of his previous life because of his firm will, all the memories about Satan had been replaced with a positive image.

As a result, the sky envoy who destroyed their Green-Hand Village became an independent evil existence.

In that case, there was nothing to say. Only by defeating the knight in front of him could he get the next dark seal. Only in this way could the soul of the knight in front of him be temporarily relieved.

Roja didn't say anything more. The bright light shone and the illusory shock completely enveloped the body of the knight.

However, a layer of blurry black light emerged from the knight's body. He shouted and unexpectedly blocked Roja's illusory shock.

Chivalry! The Eyes of God told Roja the talent of the knight in front of him.

This skill was immune to spirit control. It could increase the user's concentration by 10%. During the activation, it could block any talent related to spirit control.

It seemed that he couldn't take advantage of the situation. He could only launch a frontal attack! Roja thought to himself.

The ground under his feet was surging, and the soil was rolled up. The knight's legs were entangled, and he was firmly fixed in place. While Roja was driving a strong wind, pounced hard on his chest.

"Evil creature! How dare you compete with a knight!"

The knight roared. He raised his sword and broke free from Roja's grip. A pure black light burst out from the edge of the sword and hacked down.

The darkness turned into a huge sword light, cutting through the air and the ground and even the storm caused by Roja was cut open by the sword light.

Roja could only dodge. The dark light contained an indomitable sword's intent. Even if there was only a small cut on his body, it would be poured into his body by the violent sword's intent.

This was the dark sword's intent. It could increase the damage to one's body by multiple and even have a certain assimilation effect.

The knight's mind had been distorted. Now, in his eyes, the darkness that he should hate had become the supreme faith like the bright!

He kept walking forward, brandishing the wide sword in his hand. The black blade of the sword almost blocked every inch around Roja's body. If it weren't for the fact that Roja's agility was extraordinary, he would have been cut into several pieces.

"Stupid man! Why don't you accept the glorious trial? Have you fallen into darkness both physically and mentally?"

The knight's voice was as loud as thunder. He came to Roja in a flash and waved his heavy sword, trying to split Roja apart.

Chapter 82

Raising the moonlight machete horizontally, Roja barely caught the sword of the knight, but the heavy force made his body involuntarily bend, and the moonlight machete had been stuck to his shoulder.

As long as the knight used more strength, the heavy sword would fall and split Roja's body apart.

"You just said that I had been assimilated by darkness, and you came to judge me on behalf of glory? Humph, you have been completely tainted. Do you still believe in yourself that you represent the bright?"

The knight lowered his strength unconsciously with a flicker in his eyes and said to Roja with a confused look.

"What do you mean? Since you have invaded my home, then you represent the darkness. Can you still invade in the name of bright? My talent is the school of bright, and I have the ability to represent the bright!"

Roja sneered and slowly raised his hand to activate the dark erosion.

The dark aura spread to the knight. Roja said word by word, staring at him.

"If you represent pure brightness, then the darkness of this level can't hurt you at all. If you represent darkness, then the dark aura will merge with you. Do you dare to bet?"

The knight was stunned by Roja's words, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face. But when he looked at the dark aura approaching him, he just snorted coldly.

"I'm the rookie king of No. 72645 Green-Hand Village. I've always been honest and believed in brightness. How can I be afraid of this little darkness?"

As the two of them spoke, the dark aura came to the knight.

Under the gaze of the knight, it slowly melted into his armor, but the knight did not feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, there was a comfortable feeling spreading in his heart.

"Have you seen it? That's the truth. You are the one who should be eroded by darkness. And you have been tampered with the memory by Satan, making you think that darkness is bright. In fact, Satan is the sky envoy who destroyed your Green-Hand Village!"

Roja's words were like a hammer smashing on the knight's chest.

The knight stumbled a few steps away, and his eyes were confused and empty. This was the reaction to the sudden collapse of faith, and also a strong doubt in himself.

Looking at the light that was dim at times in the knight's eyes, Roja knew that the knight in front of him had fallen into confusion, just like Luddy.

It was his suspicion of himself. It was the fierce confrontation between the real him and his personality who had been manipulated.

"I will set you free. What I represent is not darkness, but pure brightness! Your Green-Hand Village has been destroyed, and your soul is being imprisoned. On behalf of the new Green-Hand Village, I will give you the purification of your soul!"

Roja's voice was as loud as a bell, and his robe shone brightly in the eyes of the knight.

"I know you are confused now. It's a battle between two personalities. But don't worry. Your souls will be released soon."

Roja said slowly. While the knight was still in a daze, he stabbed him in the chest.

The blood slowly flowed down the machete, and the knight finally raised his head slowly.

He took off his helmet, revealing his old and kind face.

"I see."

He sighed, with a sense of relief in his voice.

"Satan is the sky envoy. His arrival brings not redemption, but destruction. You should be the rookie king of your Green-Hand Village, right? There are still five people waiting for you in front. Please try your best to defeat them."

The body of the knight was slowly rotting, but at this moment, his face seemed to be shining with holy radiance.

"They used to be rookie kings. After the village was destroyed, they stayed in this castle forever. Young people, please give them relief. Let us wake up from the endless darkness."

His body finally withered, and the light in his eyes slowly extinguished. At last, only the heavy wide sword was still standing there.

Roja put his fist on his chest and bowed to the knight.

"I will. I will inherit your knight's will. I will spread the light all over this castle that has been eroded by darkness. The resentful soul will be released, and the knight's glory will shine again."

Under the broad sword, the seal of the knight was shining as if his will was still attached to the seal.

"Congratulations on purifying the souls of Luddy and the knight. You had acquired the talent of Luddy and the knight."

"Level-B talent: viper. It can manipulate all the elapid magical beasts whose level is no higher than three of its level. It can also divide a part of its body into a viper."

"Level-A talent: chivalry. After activation, the user will automatically gain the effect of increasing all the attributes by 20%. Moreover, it was immune to all kinds of spirit control talents, and could make it react to the enemy when it was activated."

Roja was taken aback. He had thought that it was impossible to plunder the corpses that had disappeared, but the sudden evolution notice showed the corpses provided him with two new talents.

And they were all high-level talents! In particular, the chivalry not only provided a terrifying increase of 20% of all the attributes but also made up for Roja's weakness of no spirit resistance!

He took a deep breath, adjusted his state of mind and temporarily suppressed the joy.

It was not the right time to be happy. According to the knight, there were five rookie kings waiting for him.

Moreover, these five rookie kings would only be stronger. He must be prepared to face all challenges before he could successfully obtain the remaining five seals and finally kill the Satan who ruled this dark castle!

Roja reached out and picked up the broad sword inserted on the ground. Although the heavy sword was already mottled, Roja could still feel the cold light from it.

The body of the sword was as warm as jade, which made Roja feel like he was holding a burning sun instead of a piece of metal. 𝓵𝓲𝓫𝒓𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Oh, I see. In the past tens of millions of years, you have already evolved your own psychic intelligence. Although your master was deep in darkness, you still want to be bright. Don't worry. I will take you with me to free your master."

With Roja's words, the heavy sword vibrated slightly, and the bright breath slowly reached Roja's palm. It seemed that this soldier was responding to Roja's mood and whispering his wish.

Chapter 83

Roja didn't use the talent of refinement on the heavy sword. His intuition told him that if he continued to refine it and force it to work, it would definitely cause an irreparable result.

"Heavy sword: the soul of the knight. Level: level-three item (can evolve). Hint: only those with the talent of chivalry could wave it. Under certain conditions, it could evolve. Strength +20, armor breaking +20. Additional skill: knight hacking."

,m "Knight hacking: it can provide a shield for the user to absorb the energy equivalent to his attack power. At the same time, it can strengthen its attack and slash forward in the next ten seconds."

Roja opened his mouth wide. It was the first time that he had heard of a weapon that could evolve, and there was even a harsh condition that could only be used with the talent of chivalry.

What confused him was that the Eyes of God didn't offer any method to upgrade the soul of the knight this time. Perhaps if he wanted to upgrade this weapon to a higher level, he had to slowly explore it by himself.

He held the heavy sword in his hand and slowly activated the skill of knight hacking.

A circle of white light wrapped Roja's body, not blocking Roja's sight. However, Roja could feel the strength of this white shield.

He gently raised the soul of the knight and waved it forward. A faint light instantly flew out of the sword and flew more than ten meters away. It didn't dissipate until it cut a withered tree.

This was too abnormal. It was just a close combat weapon, but he could turn it into a long-range weapon with his skills! Moreover, when using this heavy sword, the damage it could cause was even greater than that of some bows and arrows on the same level!

Roja loved the heavy sword so much that he put it on his back.

He wanted to take this heavy sword with him, so that the light of it would light up the dark castle, and that all souls would look up at the light of the sacred sword. This was not only redemption for the whole village but also a declaration of the dark's destruction.

"Task progress announcement: at present, 122 Green-Hand Villages have got the final task guidance, among which 27 Green-Hand Villages have obtained the dark seal."

The hint for task progress appeared again, which made Roja more anxious. In just a short while, more than 20 Green-Hand Villages had obtained the dark seal, and their speed was not slower than his!

Moreover, he was still carrying out a task with two times the difficulty. As the progress went on, his action would only become more and more difficult and his speed would only become slower.

Walking forward, he found an open space in the center of Green-Hand Village.

There was nothing in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, but now there was a huge and strange array drawn here. In the center of the array, there was a hole with black gas.

The array was in the shape of a pentagram. On each of the five corners of the hole stood a black spindling figure.

What made Roja's hair stand on end was that although he couldn't see the faces of five of them clearly, the black smoke on their bodies faintly showed the shape of ghosts.

Different from the previous Satan envoys who appeared alone, the remaining five Satan envoys appeared at the same time, which meant that Roja had to face five powerful rookie kings at the same time.

As Roja approached, the five men raised their heads slowly.

They had different forms, but they all had the same fierce eyes. They slowly raised the weapons in their hands, and the array under their feet was slowly rotating with their movements.

Roja suddenly became alert. He turned his head and wanted to retreat temporarily, but it was too late. The array on the ground moved to his feet in the blink of an eye, and at this moment, his body just hit the edge of the array.

The strong impact pushed Roja's body to turn several circles in the air before he landed in the center of the array.

"Ha ha ha."

Roja heard the rigid laughter, and the five Satan envoys laughed together.

"Satan said that a guest would come today, and it was true. We have been waiting for you here for too long. It seems that from today on, five people will become six people."

"You are wrong. There should be seven people to eight people."

"No. he can come here, which means that Luddy and the knight have been killed. The Satan envoy who has died once doesn't deserve to be called the Satan envoy as us."

"Young man, I like you very much. Come and join me. I can let you enjoy what is paradise on earth! Satan will generously give you to me!"

"What are you talking about? Vicious woman, how many years have you fought with me? This young man must be mine! Satan loves me so much that he won't be partial!" 𝙡𝒊𝓫𝓻𝓮𝙖𝙙.𝓬𝒐𝙢

The five people surrounded Roja and didn't attack. They just talked like normal people. They talked about Satan's favor word by word and undisguised their desire for Roja.

"Hey guys, have you finished talking? I'm in a hurry. Please hurry up."

Roja inserted the heavy sword into the ground. The metallic sound attracted the attention of the five figures.

"Don't interrupt me!"

An old man curled his lips. Before Roja could react, he felt like his head was hit by something. He felt dizzy and wanted to tear his head apart right away.

Chivalry activated!

It took Roja a long time to calm himself down. The spiritual attack from the old man's eyes made him feel like his soul was out of his mind at that moment. Thanks to the protection of chivalry, he didn't show too many flaws.

"Hey, old man, look! This guy has real skill! Your spiritual impact is completely useless to him!"

The others said to the old man with a smile, but the expression on his face didn't change at all. He just snorted coldly and showed a withered smile.

"Yes, young man, I have to admit that you are indeed very good. The talent you just activated should be the chivalry of the knight, right? I can recognize his heavy sword. You are not the first person to bring his heavy sword here."

The old man said, pointing at the heavy sword inserted by Roja on the ground.

"But even when your seniors came here, they became part of this dark castle without exception. Look, we are your nightmares!"

The five of them raised their arms and shouted, their dry faces glowing with devout light.

Chapter 84

Roja was shrouded in darkness from all directions. The black fog seemed to appear out of nowhere. Before Roja could react, he couldn't tell where he was.

He could only hear the whispers of the five people as if they were saying the gentlest words of love, but the killing intent in them was chilling.

The world soon turned into black, which was extremely pure black. It was not because the thick fog in front of him made Roja unable to see the surroundings clearly, but because he felt as if he had lost his sight.

If Roja hadn't touched his eyelids, he would have thought that his eyes had been gouged out, leaving only two black holes on his face.

Then his olfaction and taste also slowly disappeared. He could no longer smell the suffocating darkness in the dark village, nor could he feel the fragrance of the herbs that had been left in his mouth.

He licked his tongue and lips, trying to make sure that he still had these two organs. But the cold touch made Roja feel that there were two things that didn't exist on his face.

The sense of touch disappeared immediately. Roja could have guessed whether his features were still there by touching. But when the sense of touch disappeared, he couldn't touch his body, not even sense his body.

He was like a soul, losing the body he relied on for survival. He floated in the endless darkness, losing the concept of time and space, which made him feel suffocated.

He could have heard the five people croon, but as he continued to wander in the darkness, even the crooning seemed to gradually fade away from him.

As if he had been abandoned by the world, he slowly drifted towards the end of the world in darkness. The endless loneliness made Roja's soul tremble. It was a fear of loneliness. It was a shiver of loneliness with the world's endless loneliness.

Finally, he heard the last syllable of the five people's crooning.

The syllable contained boundless space, like a pair of huge hands, pushing Roja's body into the end of the world.

Roja was surrounded by loneliness. The dark space around him was like the stomach of a giant beast, which made Roja feel that his soul was slowly being digested by it.

Looking at Roja's hollow and dull expression in the array, the old man who sang at the beginning showed a twisted smile. He grabbed his face with his hand until it was badly mutilated.

"That's it! He entered the darkness like us! How merciful and great Satan is! He gave us such a space! Now we have another companion!"

The other four people also followed the old man. They laughed crazily, waved their limbs and made all kinds of strange postures as if they were thanking the sky envoy called Satan with this strange dance.

They slowly walked forward, raised their arms and drop from overhead. In the end, they all touched the body of Roja.

Looking at the body in front of them, they seemed to tremble with excitement, and even red tears were left at the corners of their eyes.

They were obviously laughing, but their expressions were so sad as if the pressure of the world was shrouding them, making them unable to breathe.

They closed their eyes as if they wanted to sing a sad song to welcome Roja to their group. But when they all lowered their heads, a voice suddenly sounded in their ears.

"You are wrong. Look, you are also sad about what you have done. This is not your nature, but your souls are manipulated by Satan improperly!"

The five men looked up at Roja who had regained consciousness in disbelief. 𝒍𝒊𝒃𝒓𝙚𝙖𝙙.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Darkness sprouts in your hearts, but there is still brightness in your hearts. You are guilty for the Green-Hand Village that you didn't protect well before. You are resenting for yourself that can't resist the darkness of Satan!"

The five of them tried to take their hands off Roja's body, but it seemed that there was a strange magnetic field in Roja's body, which firmly attracted their bodies, making them unable to leave.

Roja's whole body was covered with a layer of holy light. The LV4 robe on his body was slowly broken, and the pieces of cloth were spread around his body like wings.

In the face of the five people's attack on depriving the five senses, it was the LV4 robe left by Edward that protected him from this fatal injury, and it awakened Roja with the shattered light of purification.

Roja's eyes were full of pity. At this moment, he seemed to be the incarnation of the merciful God, representing all the brightness of the world and the power of God!

He raised the heavy sword in his hand high, and brilliant light spurted out, breaking through the clouds.

At this moment, the dark castle finally welcomed a beam of light!

Not only Edward and Lelly at the gate of the castle could see the bright light. Even outside the dark castle, the countless skeletons climbed out of the ground and stared blankly at the light column that pierced through the sky.

"Look! What's that?"

"That's a beam of light! Oh my God! I have never seen such a bright light!"

"Look! Moon! Is it my illusion? The moon seems to have dimmed a little!"

"No! No! It's not that the moon has darkened, but that the light column is too bright!"

"Then what exactly is it? What happened in the fog forest? I remember that Edward, Lelly and Roja went to the fog forest today. Is it possible that they?"

"That's impossible. They are the strongest among us, but they are all under LV20. How can they emit such a light that is even brighter than the moon?"

Everyone went crazy. They looked up at the light column that pierced through the sky. Their bodies were bathed in the holy light, and even their attributes were slowly increasing.

,m Everyone's most devout faith was awakened. They wished they could kneel and pray for the light pillar now. It was like the embodiment of God, the God that responded to their expectations!

"I will wake up the trial of heaven with the brightness in my heart! I will wash away the filth, dispel the demons, and stand trial the darkness!"

Roja's eyes lit up. He was singing the song of trial!

Chapter 85

The light shone on the bodies of the five Satan envoys. The darkness on their bodies was slowly peeling off. Taking off the miserable outer shell, their original appearances were revealed.

They used to be the rookie king of each Green-Hand Village, and all of them had been at the top of the Green-Hand Village. They just didn't survive the destruction of the sky envoys, so they became like this.

At this moment, the darkness had gone, and their eyes were no longer filled with anger. They were not the devil who believed in darkness and tried to destroy all living beings after being bewitched by Satan.

A strong knight rose from the edge of Roja's sword. He was bathed in golden light, waving a long sword as brilliant as the sun in his hand.

The light slowly fell from the sky, and the long swords fell on the bodies of Satan envoys, washing away the last trace of dirt in their souls.

Tears streamed down from the eyes of Satan envoys. Bathed in the holy light issued by the knight, they finally recalled their past and the deepest memory of their souls.

Although their bodies had gradually dissipated under the light of the trial light, their eyes were full of gratitude and guilt when they looked at Roja.

The old man was the last one to disappear. When he left, he slowly put his palm on the forehead of Roja and said softly.

"Young man, please take our last wishes and wills to move forward. My soul can stay in this dark castle to suffer, but outside the castle, tens of millions of souls are worth saving."

Roja didn't reply. The light in his eyes was fading away. He held the sword with both hands and absorbed the souls of the five Satan envoys into the brilliant light.

It was not until then that he breathed a sigh of relief. He collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath as if all his strength had been sucked out.

Roja seemed to be possessed just now. Although he could clearly remember what had happened to him, he had no impression of doing it at all.

It seemed that there was another soul attached to his body in some special way and manipulated his body to complete the shocking blow just now before he left.

Five dark seals were scattered around Roja's body. After the five Satan envoys disappeared, only these items that could help Roja decode the array and release what Satan had left.

"Congratulations to Roja on defeating five Satan envoys and obtaining five dark seals."

"Roja has collected seven dark seals, which can decode the array and release Satan at any time."

"Hint: currently, all Green-Hand Villages have obtained the final task guidance. A total of 506 Green-Hand Villages have obtained the dark seal."

"Hint: there are still three hours left before dawn. I advise you to finish the task as soon as possible to purify the dark castle and temporarily leave the area of the dark castle."

How time flew! The night was almost over! Moreover, all the Green-Hand Villages had obtained the final task guidance, and more than 500 Green-Hand Villages had obtained the dark seal.

Under such pressure, could he really get into the top ten?

Roja shook his head violently to get rid of this question. What he needed now was an indomitable spirit, not the mind of a decadent retreat.𝑙𝑖𝘣𝓇𝑒𝒶𝘥.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Sitting still, Roja ate another two or three herbs. The fragrance of the herbs permeated his body, and his energy and blood vitality were gradually restored.

"Roja has purified the souls of five Satan envoys and obtained the talents of five Satan envoys."

"Level-A talent: eye. It could greatly increase the user's spirit power. It can directly attack the target's soul through the spiritual impact. At the same time, when the proficiency reached one hundred percent, you could directly deprive the vision of the target."

"Level-A talent: ear. It could greatly enhance the user's hearing, which can make a sound that only the target can hear. After reaching one hundred percent of the proficiency, you could directly deprive the hearing of the target."

"Level-A talent: nose. It could greatly enhance the user's olfaction. The user can identify any item's nature that doesn't exceed the user's level through the smell. When the proficiency reached one hundred percent, it could directly deprive the olfaction of the target."

"Level-A talent: mouth. It could greatly enhance the user's taste. The user can taste the items with this talent without being affected by any negative effects. When the proficiency reached one hundred percent, it could directly deprive the taste of the target."

"Level-A talent: touch. It could greatly enhance the user's sense of touch, making his skin more sensitive. It could sense the subtle changes in the surrounding environment through skin perception. When the proficiency reached one hundred percent, it could directly deprive the sense of touch of the target."

Oh my God! There were five level-A talents! It covered five senses!

No wonder these five Satan envoys were arranged to appear at the end.

Perhaps these five level-A abilities were not very aggressive when they were used alone. However, when the five of them were combined, the terrifying effect of depriving one's five senses would be produced!

Roja didn't want to experience the loneliness and fear of being abandoned in the darkness for the second time in his life.

"Since you have the talent of five senses at the same time, the condition of linking up five senses is achieved. The level-A talent beast taming was activated automatically. You can permanently control any magical beasts whose grades are no more than five grades above you through blood connection."

Happiness came so suddenly that Roja felt dizzy.

"Permanently control any magical beasts whose grades are no more than five grades above me! This concept was much greater than controlling magical beasts whose grades are no more than five grades above me!"

The magical beasts were also divided into different races. Some races were born to be extremely powerful, and when they were not on a high level in their childhood, they were comparable to high-level magical beasts.

If Roja could find and manipulate the powerful magical beast cubs on a low level, then no matter how fierce the magical beasts would grow in the future, they would always be Roja's pet!

However, the ordinary beast-taming talent did not have such an effect.

The ordinary beast-taming talent was unable to manipulate the lower level of the premium stage race of magical beasts. Moreover, after manipulating the magical beasts, if the level of the magical beasts was five grades above him, the manipulating relationship would automatically end.

Once upon a time, the manipulated magical beast, whose level was more than five grades above the user, immediately killed the user.

Perhaps it was because the five talents Roja used to link up five senses were all at the level-A, which resulted in such an amazing effect and an unprecedented super level-A talent!

Chapter 86

Roja took a deep breath. He said in his heart. Even if he wanted to be happy, he had to wait until the task was completed.

If he didn't complete the task as soon as possible, he might not only fail to get the top ten rewards but also fail to complete the task.

Then what was the use even if he got the super level-A talent?

If they hadn't built a castle to resist the sky envoys, they would have been turned into nothingness by the sky envoys and then their Green-Hand Village would be reduced to the next dark castle.

It took Roja five or six minutes to calm down.

He walked to the hole in the middle of the open space and looked down.

The hole was so deep that no one could see the bottom. The dark air spread from the deep of the earth, like thousands of palms gently stroking Roja's face, trying to drag him into the darkness.

"Come on, come with me. They are just a stumbling block to you. Only you are the one I truly love! Come on, fall into this boundless darkness with me. You will feel longing, longing for the beauty in the darkness!"

A long-drawn-out female voice said slowly. Her voice was like a song, like a breeze, slowly reaching Roja's ears, stirring up his nerves.

The voice seemed to be whispering in Roja's ear. The fragrance of the breath blew on his ears. Even Roja could feel that his arms had hugged a soft and beautiful body, which was indescribably beautiful.

There was no light in the darkness, but a woman's soft and beautiful eyes seemed to appear in front of Roja. She smiled winsomely with the flow of her eyes.

Her lips were so beautiful that he would like to taste them now.

"Come on, I'm waiting for you. This is not a favor, but my invitation to you. You will be with me above this darkness. From now on, all living things will crawl under our feet."

She was still seducing Roja. She put her arms around Roja's neck and kissed him on the cheek.

Roja couldn't help but lean down and lie beside the hole. It seemed that in the next second he would be dragged into the hole by the woman in darkness and fall into darkness forever.

"Have you had enough of this? I think you are an old witch who has lived for thousands of years. You don't have to do this, do you? Or did you seduce the previous Satan envoys in this way?"

Roja stopped before he was about to fall into darkness. The confusion and temptation in his eyes were gone. He put his hands on the edge of the hole and looked at the woman in the darkness with interest.

The voice was obviously stunning. Although the woman still spoke in a soft and beautiful voice, she looked a little weak in front of Roja. 𝓁𝒾𝘣𝑟𝑒𝘢𝘥.𝘤𝘰𝑚

"Isn't it just allurement? I really don't know how you made that knight believe in darkness with such a simple talent. No wonder he can only wait for the second one."

Roja curled his lips and said to the woman in disdain. His eyes suddenly lit up with a pink light. Under the powerful infusion of spirit power, a series of pink peach hearts floated out of Roja's eyes and fell into darkness.

The talent of allurement was obtained from the silent demonic queen ant. Although it was certainly not as high as the female voice in the darkness, it was undoubtedly a powerful counterattack.

The woman's voice suddenly disappeared in the darkness, and the phantom in front of Roja quickly retreated.

A thrust came up from the hole and pushed Roja's body far away. Then the surging black air like waves surged up from the hole and smashed at Roja.

"Oh, don't worry. Even if I expose you, you don't have to be so angry. Or you have already felt my power, don't you dare to come out and fight against me face to face?"

Roja smiled brightly as he looked at the furious atmosphere.

A pair of wings appeared under his feet, and the skill butterfly wings talent was activated. In an instant, he flew up into the sky with his body and came to the top of the pit.

Taking out seven dark seals from his backpack, Roja took a deep breath and threw the seven dark seals into the holes.

After the black air met the dark seals, it was forced back further and further as if it was very afraid of the dark seals.

As the dark seals fell into the hole one after another, the surrounding black gas was slowly solidified. At last, they took on the shape of a gorgeous stage, surrounding the darkness in the middle, which was incomparably deep.

In the midair, Roja seemed to see something flashing through the hole. The blood-red light stung Roja's eyes. Endless fear shot into Roja's mind in an instant.

That was Satan, or the sky envoy lurking in the darkness!

The ground suddenly cracked, and a slender figure stood in the broken giant stone.

His whole body was covered with thick black armor, which was engraved with countless twisted and strange lines. With just a few more looks, he felt sick as if his soul was going to twist with the twisted patterns.

Different from Roja's impression, he was a feminine man with long black hair and a pale face. He was more like a vampire than the sky envoy!

"Why don't you want to join me in the darkness? The brightness has been destroyed. In this dark castle, darkness is the only existence."

Satan said slowly. Although his voice was gloomy, there was a strong sense of sadness in it.

Roja's Eyes of God couldn't see his level. He could only tell from the heavy black gas from Satan that his level should be around LV30.

He was ten levels higher than Roja!

"In the past, I was as high-spirited and vigorous as you. I wanted to save all the creatures in the world. But later I found that brightness could not save everyone, but darkness could."

Satan said slowly, with excitement gradually appearing in his eyes.

"Have you seen my people? They are all outside the city wall. They have obtained endless lives and endless happiness! They have sunk into darkness and will never disappear!"

Satan praised loudly. He seemed to be very satisfied with his work, and he was actually very serious in persuading Roja, trying to let Roja join the construction of the dark castle like him.

Chapter 87

"Do you really think they are happy? I don't think so. As the source of everything, there is only darkness in your heart. I think you should also feel their pain."

Roja said with a cold face. He raised the sword of the knight. As he moved, the knight condensed by light in the sky slowly raised his sword.

The expression on Satan's face didn't change much. He seemed to have expected Roja's reaction. He just raised his palm, and then a black spear appeared in his hand.

The black gas on the spear was burning like a flame. Even from such a distance, Roja could feel the evil aura.

"Trial!"

Roja was taken aback when he heard the word. Did Satan have the same profession as he? He wondered. 𝒍𝙞𝙗𝓻𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝙢

Although he was surprised, he instinctively stepped back.

The black spear flashed in front of Roja. The heavy darkness almost suffocated Roja. In an instant, the sharp touch made Roja's hair stand upright.

Turning around, he waved his heavy sword downward. Roja tried to cut off Satan's spear, but the spear seemed to have a life, like a slippery snake. With a slight twist, it left under Roja's sword.

It was dark outside. Although Roja resisted the attack from Satan, Satan's following attacks were like a tidal wave.

In an instant, he brandished an overwhelming spear shadow. All he could see were sharp spear blades and evil darkness.

Dozens of dents instantly appeared on Roja's armor. Even this armor with extraordinary defensive power couldn't withstand such a strong dark impact.

Roja noticed that the dark energy remained in the cracks of his armor and was constantly corroding his armor. It seemed to spread to his body.

He immediately made a decision and pulled off his broken armor.

Although it would weaken his defensive power a little, he would never allow himself to be eroded by darkness in battle.

In such a battle, as long as he made any mistakes, he could fall into an irreparable situation. If Roja's body was invaded by darkness, no matter how determined he was, he couldn't resist the darkness from his soul.

He had to find an opportunity to change the situation, or he would always be in such a passive situation. With the opponent's strength ten levels higher than him, he would definitely be the one to lose.

Thinking of this, Roja waved his sword and cut a ring beside him.

Resisting the darkness, Roja raised his eyes and stared at Satan.

The five senses talent was activated at the same time, and Satan suddenly fell into darkness. Roja was not proficient enough now. Only with the help of visual mutation could he barely deprive the vision.

However, Satan didn't seem to be affected at all. Even though his eyes were covered with a layer of black mist, he moved faster and faster.

Although he couldn't see Roja, he still seemed to know where Roja was. The black spear in his hand frequently stabbed at Roja's throat.

"You must be thinking about why you have deprived my vision, but can't stop me, right?"

As if he had seen through Roja's mind, a fierce smile appeared on his face.

"I am the person who gave them the dark power. How could I not know their talents? Although I will be affected by their talents, these powers are the parts of me!"

As he spoke, a red light shot out from his eyes. The black mist was shattered, and Roja's innate ability completely disappeared.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to sink into darkness with me. I will let you feel the happiness of darkness. I will pull you into darkness by myself. At that time, you will definitely be grateful to me!"

Satan said with a smile. He took a step back and his whole body was integrated into the darkness.

He was the darkest man in the world. Now he was hiding in the dark fog. Even if Roja activated his talent, he couldn't find him. Only his voice could be heard from all directions.

"It's not that only the brightness has the power of this trial. Darkness also has it. I will use the deep darkness to judge your sinful brightness. In hell, there is also the power that can drown the brightness!"

Roja felt that his body was locked by something invisible. No matter how hard he tried to hide, the thing hidden in the darkness was always nailed to him.

It seemed to be a beast, which reminded Roja of the feeling of being targeted by the magical beasts in the fog forest. It seemed to be a sharp sword hanging between Roja's eyebrows, which would fall down at any time and pierce through his head.

No matter how hard Roja tried to escape, the darkness around him was like a sphere. His movements were limited in this small space. No matter how he moved, he would eventually return to this small space.

"Well, it seems that I can't escape at all. This time, I have to take it head-on!"

Roja had no choice but to come to a conclusion. He put the heavy sword horizontally in front of his body and listened carefully to the movement in the darkness around him.

In this deep darkness, the vision was meaningless. Rather than believing in the illusory vision, it was better to gamble and use other senses to identify the attacks in the darkness.

There was a sound of air-breaking in his ears, which seemed to be produced by something sharp tearing the air.

He turned around and rotated the heavy sword. A sound of metal clashing could be heard as if his heavy sword had hit a weapon and bounced the object away.

Just as he was secretly rejoicing, sharp pain came from his back.

His hair all over his body exploded. Although it was not the real attack, the sharp breath of the dark spear had pierced through his skin and transmitted the darkness into his body.

Roja didn't dare to delay for half a second and immediately turned on the light of trial. The bright light fell from the sky and covered Roja and the black spear behind him. Even so, there was still a huge crack on Roja's back.

Roja's blood was bleeding, his face twisted in pain. However, under the light of trial, the dark spear was also weakened, and a large part of the properties of Satan's whole body fell, which made the dark spear not go deep into Roja's body.

Chapter 88

Roja suddenly turned around and happened to face Satan.

The expression on Satan's face showed that he was a little panicked. It seemed that he had never thought that such a powerful bright trial could make his own nature decline.

But at this moment, the black spear in his hand could no longer move forward. In front of the black spear, there were more than a dozen armors. Although their grades were not high, they blocked the spear's advance.

These armors were all obtained by Roja with low-grade treasure boxes. They were hung in the trading channel and hadn't been sold out for the time being. Now he took them out to save himself.

Thanks to these armors, Roja got some precious time.

Roja stepped on the black spear and it fell to the ground. With the help of this step, he jumped high up.

A sound burst out from his mouth and slammed into Satan's body.

Dizziness! Freeze!

Roja's unexpected attack had a miraculous effect, and Satan's body was firmly nailed to the spot. Even though his rank was much higher than Roja's, he had to bear the negative effect of Roja's attack when his nature was greatly weakened.

"Darkness can't shatter brightness, especially someone like you! No, you are not a human at all. You are just an individual condensed by the dark side of this world! At this moment, I will represent the brightness to judge you!"

Roja held up his heavy sword. The bright light made his body look like a pair of bright wings.

The trial of God!

Roja concentrated all his strength on the sword. Under the urging of his full strength, the sword shone more brightly, and even the body of the knight behind Roja became solid.

The sword fell from the sky, like a punishment from a God. It hacked hard at the head of Satan and divided it into two parts. 𝒍𝓲𝙗𝒓𝒆𝓪𝒅.𝙘𝒐𝓶

The bloody scene did not appear as expected. After the body of Satan was split apart, the black air overflowed from it as if Satan was made up of such dark energy.

"You can't destroy me. I'm made up of the deepest darkness in the world! As long as the darkness in the world doesn't disappear, I will never be destroyed!"

Satan roared angrily. His body, which was divided into two parts, was still wriggling. His palm was still trying to wave the dark spear to stab Roja.

But Roja would never give him the chance. He didn't believe there was anything in the world that couldn't be broken.

Since it couldn't be done once, then he would do it a second time!

The trial of God activated for the unprecedented second time. Roja had already squeezed out his full potential, and now he was fighting with a will.

LV19!

At this moment, Roja's level finally broke through the boundary. A boundless brightness burst out from the long sword in his hand, forming a huge sharp edge, and completely devoured the body of Satan.

The waves of brightness broke through Satan's body. Even though he had turned into a dark current, it was still overwhelming under the waves of brightness.

Even the deepest darkness could not resist the tide of brightness. Even the darkness that could not be destroyed would eventually dissipate under the brightness!

When the tide of brightness gradually disappeared, Roja kept waving his sword and slowly fell down.

Although he had reached the next level by chance, all his strength seemed to have been drained. Now he didn't even want to move a finger.

His mind was also in a mess as if tens of thousands of sparrows were twittering in his mind. It seemed as if someone was splitting his head with a huge ax, and it was extremely painful.

The bones all over his body seemed to have been broken and reorganized. The pain deep into the bone made Roja groan involuntarily.

But he was very happy. He finally killed Satan! Even if there were ten levels between the two of them, he still killed Satan with his own willpower!

As the body of Satan gradually disappeared, there was only a heart left on the ground.

The heart was still beating, and the blood was constantly flowing out from it.

Although he didn't know how long had Satan been in this dark castle, his heart was still as alive as a living person. It was so vivid that it made him wonder if he had just been taken out of his chest.

Roja took a deep breath, endured the piercing pain and got up from the ground.

If possible, he really wanted to lie on the ground, but now he had more important things to do.

He took out the copper ball from his backpack that he had obtained when he got the final mission guidance before. With difficulty, he picked up Satan's heart and dripped the blood onto the copper ball.

The blood spread over the copper ball and flowed along the complicated lines, slowly merging into it. Then, Roja felt a burning sensation in his hand.

The copper ball slowly melted, and then re-organized in Roja's palm, finally forming an ancient scroll made of sheep's skin.

From the appearance, Roja might even think that the scroll had been buried underground for tens of millions of years. The shabby appearance really couldn't make Roja connect it with the castellan appointment letter.

But when he unfolded the scroll, his eyes were almost blinded by the light.

The glittering golden words seemed to have a special magic power. Just a glance at it, Roja felt that the pain all over his body seemed to disappear.

"Respectful castellan: thank you for defeating the ruler of the dark castle, Satan. In return, you now have the right to dispose of this castle. You can build your own castle based on this castle."

There were two empty blanks under the short words. One was to write the name of the future castle, and the other was to write the name of castellan.

Roja put the scroll away carefully. He heaved a long sigh of relief.

As long as he added his name on it, he would be the real castellan. With the support of this dark castle, he would be able to build his own castle, which could protect the entire No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village!

Roja opened the chat channel and smiled. He saw the people who had been supporting him and worried about him.

"My friends, I have good news to announce. I have defeated Satan who ruled the dark castle and obtained the castellan appointment letter. From now on, we are going to build our own castle."

Roja excitedly sent messages on the chat channel. At this moment, he only felt excited. A great sense of accomplishment made him extremely satisfied.

Chapter 89

"Is it done? Roja has done it!"

"Oh my God! It's two times more difficult. How did Mr. Roja make it? I see some of the other Green-Hand Villages on the regional chat channel even know how to pass it!"

"How can they compare with Roja? Roja is the person who led our Green-Hand Village to create a miracle!"

"So the light in the fog forest was indeed made by Roja!"

"That's awesome! Roja is awesome! With the help of Roja, we don't have to be afraid of the sky envoys anymore! And we don't have to be afraid of being exiles!" 𝘭𝑖𝘣𝓇ℯ𝘢𝒹.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The people in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village were so excited that they almost burst into tears. The chat channel was full of respect for Roja.

"Congratulations! You have finally completed the task. I'm sorry that we didn't help you much this time. In the end, you took the responsibility alone."

Edward held Lelly's arms and walked up to Roja. With a smile on his face, he was genuinely happy for Roja.

"Me too. In the end, I became your burden because of my carelessness. I'm really sorry, but it's great that you can complete the task."

Lelly added.

"Don't say that. If it weren't for you two, I wouldn't have been able to enter the dark castle in my best condition. Besides, Edward, you have saved my life."

Roja blinked at Edward. Edward was stunned for a moment. Then he saw that Roja didn't have any defensive equipment. He patted his head and realized what had happened.

"Oh, that's an LV4 item! I killed countless bosses before I revealed it! If it weren't for my talent, I wouldn't even be able to strengthen it to LV4! It's such a pity that it was broken!"

He shook his head with a reassuring smile and patted Roja on the shoulder.

"Never mind. It's okay if it's broken. We can get equipment again, and there will be better ones in the future. The most important thing is that you're fine, and don't say that I saved your life. You have completed the task, you save all of us."

Roja felt warm in his heart. He laughed and hugged Edward and Lelly, celebrating this hard-won victory.

"By the way, what about the castellan appointment letter? Didn't the task guidance show that you could drop Satan's blood on the copper ball to activate the appointment letter? Now that you have completed the task, you should quickly complete the appointment letter."

Lelly said to Roja after the three separated.

"It is in my hand. Of course I have activated it. Now we need to fill in the name of our future village and the name of castellan."

Roja said with a smile. At the same time, he took out the appointment letter from his backpack and showed it to Edward and Lelly.

"Great! That's great! Now we have our own castle!"

The two of them looked at the appointment letter with golden light, and their eyes were burning.

"Roja, fill in your name. You will be the castellan."

Edward urged Roja with a smile.

"Hurry up, or if it's too late, we may not be able to squeeze into the top ten. Just now, three or four Green-Hand Villages have built castles during the battle. I think we can still make it to the top ten!"

Roja nodded. He didn't notice the hint of the system in the battle just now. Now he looked again and found that there were three or four Green-Hand Villages in front of them and they had built their own castles.

He also knew that he was the strongest in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, and he had to take responsibility for the castellan.

He gently touched the appointment letter with his finger. The golden light moved with Roja's finger and he filled in his name on the blank name column.

"Announcement: Roja from No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village completed the public task. He defeated Satan and Satan envoys. No. 1002548. Green-Hand Village became the sixth one to complete the task."

"Hint: No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village became the top ten Green-Hand Village to establish a castle, and you will be rewarded with an initial defensive array. The initial value of the castle increased by 100%. As the owner of the castle, Roja would get a total of 200 points and a level-A treasure box."

"Hint: since the degree of difficulty of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village's task was two times than others, all the rewards will be doubled. The initial defensive array of the castle was automatically elevated to the first level. The initial value increased by 1000%. As the owner of the castle, Roja will get 400 points and two level-A treasure boxes."

The announcement soon spread to every corner of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, and countless people were celebrating happily.

Although they only got the sixth place, it was known that this was the sixth place when the difficulty of the task doubled! In terms of rewards, they even obtained greater benefits than the first place Green-Hand Village!

"Hint: since Edward and Lelly performed well during the task and helped Roja complete the task perfectly, they will be rewarded with one level-A treasure box for each of the two."

What? Even we had a share!

Edward and Lelly were really shocked this time. They had thought that they didn't make any contribution to the main task, which was to defeat Satan and Satan envoys. This exclusive reward should not be their turn.

But they didn't expect that this world was so generous. They each got a level-A treasure box!

Soon they understood the source of the reward. It should be because the difficulty of their task was two times that there was such a special reward.

If it was in an ordinary Green-Hand Village, no matter how many people had completed the task in groups, the person who would receive the exclusive reward in the end should only be the one who had written his name on the appointment letter.

"Hint: Roja triggered a hidden task while completing the task. The hidden task was to purify the soul of the Satan envoys and awaken their humanity. So the reward was upgraded again."

"In this task, the treasure chests obtained by the three people who participated in the task have a chance to produce a specific category of item. Its grade was not lower than LV3, but not higher than LV5."

The three of them were shocked again.

A specific category of the item meant that the three of them could decide the items in the treasure chest! In this way, they could avoid obtaining items of high quality but not suitable for their own use!

It was not lower than LV3, but no higher than LV5, which meant that as long as the person was not too unlucky, the thing he obtained was at least LV4!

Chapter 90

The ground began to shake, and the dark castle was slowly shaking. Roja reminded the hint, he said to Edward and Lelly.

"Well, it's not too late for us to be excited after we go out. I've got the hint that we should leave the dark castle as soon as we finish the task. It seems that something is going to change here. Let's leave first."

Edward and Lelly nodded and the three of them ran out of the dark castle.

On their way to the castle, they saw the evil apes that had been everywhere in the castle were rotting at an extremely fast speed.

Their strong bodies were turning into solid stones with the dark castle, and then gradually turned into dust and dissipated.

These powerful creatures couldn't even let out a scream before they died. They were condensed from the deepest darkness in the dark castle. Now that the darkness no longer existed, they had no meaning in living.

Outside the dark castle, Edward was worried that they might have to resist the thousands of skeletons again.

But what greeted them were warm smiles. Although those skeletons had climbed out of the ground again, at this moment, their bodies had retreated from the darkness.

They had changed into human beings again as if they were still alive!

They stood on both sides of the dark castle and gently waved at Roja and the others with gentle and friendly smiles on their faces.

These used to be living humans. Even though they had died for so many years and were imprisoned in darkness, the purity and kindness in their hearts hadn't changed at all! 𝓵𝙞𝓫𝒓𝙚𝓪𝓭.𝒄𝓸𝓶

At this moment, the shackles of the dark castle on their souls finally disappeared, and their humanity finally shone again! They sang a grateful song at the same time and sent Roja and the others out of the dark castle.

They fixed their eyes on Roja. Although he couldn't communicate with them, he could still feel their gratitude.

"Look, their souls have also been freed. This is the real human beings, not the monsters ruled by darkness."

Edward said to Roja in a low voice, tears welling up in his eyes. He wanted to hug these souls and tell them that the darkness was over, but when his hand touched their souls, they slowly dissipated.

After all, they were dead humans. Even if their souls were temporarily restored, they would definitely follow the rules of this world and gradually dissipate.

"This is the meaning of everything we have done. In order to free the souls in the darkness, in order to let the living people feel the brightness, we have to be strong and brave to live on."

Roja looked at those souls and said slowly.

The three of them finally walked out of the area of the dark castle. They turned their heads and saw that the castle, which had been immersed in darkness for tens of millions of years, was slowly collapsing behind the black light barrier.

Thick darkness rose in the castle, baring its teeth and claws as if it was looking for the next attachment point.

At this moment, in the highest sky of the dark castle, a brilliant light fell from the sky.

It was a bright moon. The silver light was more dazzling than any light Roja saw!

After being illuminated by the moonlight, the furious dark aura let out a painful roar. In the end, the darkness slowly dissipated under the moonlight.

At this moment, everything that belonged to the dark castle had been completely destroyed, and the territory in the darkness no longer existed.

Soon after, the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village were surprised to find that there was a tremendous change around their Green-Hand Village.

The huge city wall rose from the ground. as if it had grown out of the ground. Each huge stone was several thousand pounds heavy, and it was completely different from what a normal human could build.

There were also various mysterious runes carved on the stone, but they didn't look dizzy. Instead, they made people feel like they were bathed in the radiance.

The city walls surrounded Green-Hand Village, leaving only four gates in four directions. However, they didn't make people feel depressed, they made people sigh at the grandeur of light.

Golden light flowed on the ground. They shuttled through every street and passed through every wooden house. All the ground that was swept by the golden light was dyed with a brilliant halo.

If you looked down from the sky, you would be surprised to find that these golden lines formed a huge array, not only surrounding the entire castle of Green-Hand Village but also covering a part of the land outside Green-Hand Village.

A golden light soared into the sky and came out from the open space in the center of Green-Hand Village. It supported the entire No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village with a golden sky curtain.

"Announcement: No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village has obtained a defensive array, which can resist ten attacks from the sky envoy. Along with Green-Hand Village's upgrade, the array will gradually upgrade."

"Hint: the higher the level of the array is, the more attacks from the sky envoy it can block."

This hint made everyone stunned. The reward of the task was an array that could effectively resist the attack of the sky envoy, but no one had expected that this array would have a number of times to resist!

It seemed that the only way to survive the attack of the sky envoy was to upgrade Green-Hand Village continuously.

"Announcement: at present, No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village castle is LV1. To upgrade the LV2 castle, you need to have 100 LV2 wooden houses in Green-Hand Village."

"Announcement: the blueprint of upgrading wooden house and the method of acquiring upgrade materials have been sent to the public task channel. Everyone could look up it at will."

"Hint: everyone can get castle contribution points by donating or completing the special task of building Green-Hand Village castle. With the contribution points, you can exchange for more materials and various needs for upgrading in the store."

It turned out that they have to promote the upgrade of the castle by upgrading the wooden houses! Moreover, it had a miraculous contribution point system!

Everyone rushed into the contribution point store to check the cashable items.

They were surprised to find that according to the rules of the store, one could get one contribution point by donating a piece of wood, but the ten contribution points obtained by donating ten pieces of wood could be exchanged for twelve pieces of wood in the store!

"What does this mean? Is the system doing a business at a loss?"

Someone asked in confusion, but soon someone answered him.

"Don't be silly. The system is telling us that we must work together to contribute to the castle!"

Chapter 91

Roja agreed with that. It was better to make everyone work hard on building the Green-Hand Village through personal awareness than to make people united by interests.

Just imagine, if one could get more benefits by making contributions to the group than by collecting materials by himself, then only a fool would privately hide the materials he had collected!

Moreover, if they used the exchange value in the exchange store, they could also obtain some materials that were difficult to obtain in the wild!

Under the control of interests, everyone would unite to build their own castle!

"I didn't expect that this world would use such a method to unite people. Now I don't know whether it wants to destroy us or guide us."

Lelly looked at the public task and said with a smile.

"Of course it's guiding us. This world seems to be the law of the jungle, but it has its own rules. As long as we stick together and follow the rules of this world, we will be guided to the right direction."

Edward said with a smile. Judging from his squinting eyes, he was obviously in a good mood now.

Roja knew that from the beginning, Edward wanted to unite all the people to break the rules of this world and return to his original world.

Now the world had taken the initiative to help him achieve the goal of unity with benefits. How could he not be happy?

"Friends, we just found a place on the periphery of the fog forest, which is especially suitable for collecting wood! And the level of the magical beasts is also very low!"

"Friend, can we team up? There are ten people here. We can chop wood together!"

"Let's team up! We found a mine in the southwest, but there are magical beasts guarding it. As long as we defeat them, we can obtain the ore materials!"

"Let's go! We happen to be nearby. Send me the location. I'll friend you. Let's go together!"

On the chatting channel, everyone was enthusiastically communicating. They looked for materials together and donated all the materials they obtained to the contribution point store.

Almost everyone got their own contribution points, and the whole Green-Hand Village presented a prosperous scene.

"Well, the problem here is almost solved. I think we should go to collect the materials as soon as possible. Otherwise, the three of us will not be able to build our own wooden house."

Roja smiled at Edward and Lelly.

"Wait a minute. Let's open our treasure chest here. It happens to be in the depths of the fog forest. If we open it here, we won't be disturbed."

Edward suddenly said. He sat cross-legged and opened his treasure box.

A ball of blurry white light changed its shape in his palm and finally presented the style of a cloak.

"It's an LV5 item, a purifying robe. It's the same type as the one I gave you. It seems that I'm lucky. It's just that the pattern is a little simple, not as magnificent as the last one."

Edward opened his eyes, took a look at the cloak in his hand, and said with a smile.

"Well, it's my turn."

Lelly added. Although he didn't know why Edward insisted on opening the treasure box here, it was the same wherever he opened it. So he sat down cross-legged and opened the treasure box as Edward did.

With a flash of white light, Lelly took a look at the thing in his hand and curled his lips.

"An LV4 item, the thunder god armor. Although it is very compatible with my attributes and the values are not low, why can I only open an LV4 item? Alas, if only I were a little luckier and could get an LV5 item."

Edward patted Lelly on the shoulder and said.

"Well, you'd better be content. With our current level of hunting magical beasts, it's extremely difficult to explode an LV3 item. Now that you have taken an LV4 item, what else do you want?"

Then it was Roja's turn. Holding the treasure box, Roja was thinking about what he needed.

After thinking for a while, he finally decided to have armor. The previous savage bear suit had been destroyed into pieces. Even if it was repaired, all the values would be greatly reduced.

It was better to take this opportunity to get a defensive item. If he could just get an LV5 item, his defensive power would definitely reach a new level!

Thinking of this, Roja closed his eyes and opened the treasure box with his hands.

To Roja's surprise, the white light in his hand was so strong that it even covered the light emitted by Edward when he opened the box. 𝙡𝒊𝓫𝓻𝓮𝙖𝙙.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Such a strong light should be an LV5 item!

Roja thought expectantly, but the item in his hand surprised Roja.

"Level-three item: the crown of the knight (can evolve). It was cast by the legendary knight and could transform into armor to protect the user. It could be upgraded under certain conditions. Defensive power +50, agility+20, power +20."

It was another item that could evolve! Although it was only LV3 now, it could be seen that the future of this item would be incomparably bright. The precondition was that Roja had to find a way to upgrade it.

"What do you think? It must be an extraordinary item! The light is even stronger than what I've seen. It's also an LV5 item!"

Edward looked at the crown in Roja's hand with admiration.

"It's not as powerful as you said. Although it's an extraordinary item, at least it's still LV3 now."

Roja said with a bitter smile.

What he needed more now was a strong guardian. Although the crown of the knight would be glorious in the future, at least for the time being, it couldn't provide substantial help to Roja.

Even the skill attached to an LV3 item was canceled.

"How could it be! It looks so gorgeous, but it is only LV3!"

Lelly exclaimed. He couldn't believe that Roja is unluckier than him.

"But that's the truth. I can't change it. I have opened the treasure box. I can't put it back, can I?"

Roja shrugged and said helplessly.

Edward looked at the cloak in his hand and then looked at Roja. Suddenly, he unfolded the cloak in his hand and put it on Roja.

"What are you doing? This is your thing, and it fits your nature best!"

Roja was startled and hurried to take off his cloak.

Chapter 92

"Please don't do that, Roja, my friend. I hope you understand that you are not representing yourself now. You are representing the castellan of the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village castle. In the future, your path will only be more and more difficult."

Edward held Roja's hand and took it off the cloak.

"This cloak is an LV4 item. It can increase 60 defenses and 70 agilities. It also has the skill of the light of purification. You have seen my talent, and you know the role of the light of purification. It has a great effect on you."

"Your future is getting more and more difficult. I don't know how many difficulties are waiting for you. With this cloak, it will be a great help to you. But for me, it won't work as much as you do."

Edward said to Roja with a smile. Roja felt warm. His will seemed to have been transmitted to the cloak, warming up his body.

Roja also understood that Edward was telling the truth. In the future, as the castellan, he would have a heavy burden. The sky envoy who destroyed the castle would never be defeated as easily as Satan he faced.

He took a deep breath, wrapped his cloak tighter, and held Edward's hand.

"Well, I see. I'll take this cloak. But if I find more suitable equipment, I will definitely return it to you. I hope you won't refuse me by that time."

Edward said with a smile when he saw Roja finally take his cloak.

"Then I hope I can see this cloak as soon as possible because you must have got more powerful equipment at that time."

Edward blinked his eyes and smiled at Roja.

"You still have a level-A treasure box. Open it quickly. I can't wait to see what else can be opened in your treasure box."

Roja didn't refuse. He had already opened one, so he opened the other one.

A ball of white light flashed, and before the items in his palm were completely revealed, a deafening roar could be heard.

He didn't know what level of the magical beast could make that roar. Roja and the others trembled with fear as if they were going to fall to the ground.

"Look up there!"

Lelly pointed at Roja's head and shouted in a trembling voice.

Roja and Edward raised their heads together. Their mouths were wide open and they were speechless. They were extremely surprised.

In the sky above Roja's head, the white light condensed into a gorgeous cloud. In the cloud, there was a galloping giant wolf, covered with gorgeous fur all over its body, and it had a pair of fierce wolf eyes.

Although it was just a phantom, it seemed to really have a life! Just looking at the phantom of the wolf, he had an illusion that his throat had been bitten off!

What was this? He had never heard of a magical beast with such a nature in the fog forest!

And if such a magical beast really existed, why only a phantom would be released!

The phantom of the giant wolf only lasted for a few minutes. In the proud eyes of the wolf, its body slowly dispersed, and the magnificent clouds also gradually dissipated. Finally, it snowed in the area where Roja and the others were.𝓵𝒊𝓫𝙧𝙚𝒂𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"What the hell is that? The climate here should have nothing to do with ice and snow at all. After this demonic wolf appeared, it actually caused the change in the weather!"

Edward said, covering his head with his hand. He had been sitting against a tree. But after the demonic wolf appeared, he was so surprised that he stepped back suddenly. He hit a tree and his head swelled up quickly.

"No, it doesn't seem to be like that. There is no such magical beast in the fog forest. The magical beast's phantom seems to come from the thing in Roja's hand!"

Hearing this, the three of them looked at Roja at the same time.

As the white light gradually dissipated, Roja felt the coldness from his palm as if he was holding a large ice cube.

In fact, what remained in Roja's hand was a huge egg. Its shell was covered with white lines, which looked like a cloud or water.

Roja opened his mouth wide. He started the Eyes of God and observed the egg carefully.

"King-level magical beast: dire wolf king (not born)."

It was an unmarried magical beast! It was even a king-level!

If the magical beast was hatched, its level would never exceed LV5. It would be extremely easy for Roja to use the beast taming talent on it!

Although the dire wolf king could not play a big role in the early stage when its level was not very high, the growth speed of the king-level magical beast was absolutely extraordinary.

If Roja took the king-level dire wolf king to hunt down magical beasts, most of the time, Roja wouldn't even need to personally kill it. This dire wolf king only needed a howl to make the magical beasts kneel!

He must have found a treasure! This magical beast egg was even more precious than a level-five item!

Level-five items could still be released in the future hunting process, but if one wanted to obtain an egg of the magical beast, it was simply rare!

Even if he was lucky enough to get a magical beast egg, he would definitely not be able to subdue a king-level magical beast if he didn't have the talent of beast taming like Roja.

"Friends, my dear friends, I seem to have found a great treasure!"

Roja was so excited that he danced with joy. He announced loudly to his two friends.

"Roja, I'm really happy for you. But you must remember that before this magical beast grows up, it can't appear in front of everyone!"

Edward said sincerely, but at the same time, he was also worried.

"Now in our Green-Hand Village, of course no one will covet your magical beast. But if all the Green-Hand Villages are merged together in the future, this magical beast will definitely be coveted by countless people before it grows up!"

Roja nodded seriously and carefully put the cold magical beast egg into his storage ring.

"Of course I know how important this magical beast egg is to us. Don't worry. I will protect it well."

Chapter 93

"Let's go back. Don't make everyone worry too much. Besides, we have to build our own wooden house. As the castellan, you have to build your own house more beautiful."

Edward blinked at Roja and said.

The three of them left the fog forest together and walked back to Green-Hand Village. Roja couldn't help but sigh at the magnificent castle in front of him.

Perhaps this was the benefit of directly skipping the construction stage and reaching the first level. The magnificent gate looked very solid. In addition to the sky envoys, even the riot of the magical beasts around Green-Hand Village was unable to break through the barrier of the city wall.

Along the way, everyone paid the highest respect to Roja. Roja saw that a lot of Green-Hand Villages have obtained enough materials, and they were about to upgrade to level two soon.

'If we work together like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before our castle can be upgraded to level two.'

Thinking of this, Roja walked to his wooden house. Looking at the shabby house, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Now the castellan's house was the ugliest one.

He opened the list of public tasks and found that there was an extra public task of upgrading Green-Hand Village. There was a little rate of progress on the progress bar, and about three or four wooden houses had completed the upgrade, which was far from the goal of 100 wooden houses.

Roja opened his wooden house and found that the upgrade was not as simple as he thought.

The most common way to upgrade to level two was to use wood and stones. However, in this case, the level-two wooden house was actually not much different from the level-one wooden house. If they rested in the wooden house, their state of recovery would not change much.

The intermediate upgrade method required a designated material. It required collecting iron ores and copper ores other than wood and stones, and forging them into corresponding shapes according to the instructions.

The experience and the strengthening of Green-Hand Village were much better than the ordinary way. Resting in such a wooden house could also get higher energy recovery points.

Roja had also seen that someone on the chatting channel had found the iron mine and wanted to team up with everyone to mine it. They should be for the purpose of the intermediate upgrade method.

While the advanced upgrade method was relatively harsh. In addition to the materials mentioned above, they also needed to collect the bones and fur of the magical beasts, as well as an item called the cold pool stone.

Now no one knew where to find this kind of stone, so for this highest level of upgrade, they could only choose to give up.

But Roja was different. Although he didn't know where this kind of stone could be found, he had the title of rookie king, and now he was the castellan of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village castle, so he enjoyed the right to special instructions.

"Hint: as a rookie king, you can get a special hint." 𝘭𝒾𝑏𝑟𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Hint: the cold pool stone only exists in the lonely snowfield in the far northern region of Green-Hand Village. In the center of the snowfield, one could see the ten thousand years of the cold pool. The cold pool stone was the foundation of the ten thousand years' cold pool."

He didn't expect that the rookie king hint could last till now. Wouldn't he be able to get the information first for all the special tasks in the future?

Roja thought excitedly. But he also saw that his personal task was constantly flashing.

He couldn't help exclaiming when he clicked it open.

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect that the two tasks would be at the same time!"

"Hint: in the next stage of the long-term task, you should go to the lonely snowfield to hunt and kill the demonic jackal king. It was suggested that 20 strong warriors above LV19 should team up."

Roja checked his condition and was full of fighting spirit.

His wooden house must use the most advanced method to upgrade. This was the wooden house of the castellan. If it had a strong attribute, it would greatly enhance the strength of the whole Green-Hand Village.

It was not that Roja didn't want to share the location of the cold pool stone, but that he was the only one who reached the level to go to the lonely snowfield.

Moreover, it was an area that had never been developed. If the people of Green-Hand Village went there, they would definitely be threatened beyond imagination.

After sending a message to Edward and telling him where he was going, Roja set off for the lonely snowfield.

The further north he walked along the road of Green-Hand Village, the colder the air became. Although Roja had unusual resistance, he was also severely frozen.

At first, he could endure it, but as time went by and the location went north, Roja felt that the cold air was like a steel needle piercing into his skin.

Even if he used his fire controlling talent to warm himself up with flames, the result would be negligible.

When he was about to get close to the lonely snowfield, he was surprised to find that the flames that were burning beside him had actually solidified. They were sealed in ice, forming a unique flame ice sculpture!

It was so cold here that it was almost an impossible place for humans to live. Roja had no choice but to turn around and go back.

He opened his own system interface. As the castellan, he had three chances every day to teleport back to Green-Hand Village from anywhere.

He shivered and clicked the teleportation button without hesitation.

When Roja appeared in the wooden house, he was covered with a layer of ice all over his body. Even a slight movement of his body could cut off a circle of ice shells.

"Why did you come back so soon? Did you get what you want? What's wrong with you? Did the magical beast hatch and hurt you?"

Edward asked Roja in confusion. He had just collected the iron mine. When he passed by Roja's wooden house, he suddenly saw Roja sitting on the steps.

"Don't mention it. Have you seen the highest-level method to upgrade in the public task? I found the cold pool stone required, but that place is not accessible to humans at all."

Roja smiled bitterly and waved at Edward stiffly. Although there was a fire to warm him, the cold air had been attached to his bones and could not be dispersed.

"It's difficult now. If even you can't get in, then there's no one here who can get in, unless someone has the talent above level B which specialized in flames."

Edward said with a frown. Although most people had chosen the intermediate method to upgrade, who didn't want to use the advanced method to upgrade?

Chapter 94

"Announcement: in the next month, the rookie castle that first reaches level five can add one hundred percent extra attribute to the castle. At the same time, the attribute of all the residents in the castle increased by 100 points. The castellan will be rewarded with a level-A treasure box."

"Announcement: second to the fifth place castle that upgrades to level five will get 50% extra attribute, and all the residential attributes in the castle will increase by 20 points."

The announcement distracted Roja and Edward's attention from the cold pool stone.

This was an excellent opportunity for them, not only for the entire rookie castle but also for everyone!

At this moment, the regional chat channel was already in an uproar. Whether it was Green-Hand Village, which had completed the task and built the castle, or Green-Hand Village, which hadn't completed the task successfully, they were discussing the latest announcement enthusiastically.

"Great! We must get the best reward this time! We have built a castle and I believe that we can get the upgrade soon!"

"Can you get the best result? Stop kidding. Can you compete with Roja? You know, your Green-Hand Village is a loser!"

"You can't say that. Although I admit that I am inferior to him in terms of personal strength, this time the competition is not personal strength!"

"Yes, according to the rules, no matter how powerful a person is, what he can do is to repair his own wooden house. At most, he can donate more things on the channel. It is absolutely impossible for a person to build 100 wooden houses!"

"Yes, that's it. That is to say, we still have a chance. Only if we are united enough, we can get the first place! This is not the time for him to show his personal heroism!"

Edward said to Roja with a smile, looking at the messages on the regional chat channel.

"Have you seen that? Now we have been targeted by them. Everyone is thinking about winning the first place. Do you think we can really do it?"

Roja shrugged his shoulders and turned off the regional chat channel.

"Who knows? If they want, just let them do it. We have been competing for the Green-Hand Village all the way here. We created a miracle even if it was impossible. What else can't we do?"

Edward gave Roja a reassuring smile.

"Yes, that's exactly what we want. We can create a miracle!"

Roja waved at Edward. Although he said he was not afraid, he was not sure. After all, he no longer relied on his own strength this time.

At this time, he saw that there were countless messages flashing through the No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village chat channel.

"Friends, have you seen that our defeated opponent has come back? They still want to defeat us!"

"Isn't it just a competition of collective strength? We are a whole! Mr. Roja has won countless victories for us. Now it's time for us to win for him!"

"Yes, this is our power! Mr. Roja, please let us create a miracle for you this time!"

Roja was moved. At this moment, he felt the power of everyone, which made him feel the heavy burden on his shoulder.

As the castellan, Roja had 50 contribution points in the rookie castle, which were enough for him to exchange for materials that could help him upgrade his wooden house to level two.

But he didn't want to do that. He donated all the equipment he had previously obtained to the rookie castle.

In this way, as long as someone accumulated enough contribution points, he could easily obtain the equipment.

Roja's action was praised again. Everyone was more eager to upgrade the wooden house. People mined ores and cut trees everywhere at the periphery of the fog forest and in front of the iron mine.

Such a scene of working together was rare in other Green-Hand Villages. Although they had tried their best to surpass Roja's Green-Hand Village, they couldn't work together, and the result was not as good as that of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. 𝓵𝙞𝙗𝙧𝙚𝒂𝙙.𝓬𝒐𝒎

Next, Roja was going to study how to go to the lonely snowfield.

There was so cold that even the fire could be frozen. If he just wrapped himself with a few more clothes and beast hide, it would not have any greater effect.

Suddenly, Roja thought of a person, Ellena!

The savage bear suit and butterfly boots he had used before were all refined by her. Now that such a long time had passed, her level of casting master must have increased a lot.

He opened the ranking list and found that Ellena was ranked third. According to the system, she was a level-three casting master now.

Although the upgrade was not obvious, about refining items, no one could do better than her in the whole Green-Hand Village.

Thinking of this, Roja quickly opened the chat channel and found Edward.

"My friend, I want to know something about your teammate Ellena. Didn't she help me refine a suit before? This time, I have something to ask her for."

Edward agreed without hesitation. He also said that Roja and Ellena were old acquaintances, so it was reasonable for them to help.

Ten minutes later, Edward and Roja came to Ellena's wooden house.

To their surprise, Ellena's wooden house had reached level two, and the method of upgrade did not belong to any of the methods shown in the system.

On the door of the wooden house, there was a shiny sign with a row of words: Ellena's casting workshop.

,m The door of the wooden house was open. Ellena was making a long sword with her head down. Looking at her focused expression, Edward and Roja didn't dare to disturb her. They could only stand aside.

After half an hour, Ellena wiped the sweat off her forehead and raised her head.

"Ah, when did you come? Just call me when you are here. We are so familiar with each other. Are you still afraid of me?"

Ellena was surprised to see Roja, but she quickly adjusted her expression. She carefully put the long sword on the table aside and said to Roja, holding her chin.

"Edward has sent me your requirements. It's very difficult. We don't have magical beasts with ice attribute. Without the same attribute, it's almost impossible to make an extremely cold protective armor with existing attributes."

Ellena's first sentence was like a basin of cold water pouring on Roja's head.

Could it be that he could only go to the lonely snowfield with his physical strength?

Roja whined in his heart.

Chapter 95

"But it's not completely impossible. Although you can't enter the lonely snowfield in the north, you can hunt some magical beasts with ice nature around now. In this way, there will be materials, right?"

Ellena's words ignited the fire in Roja's heart. He patted his head and suddenly reacted.

Right! Why didn't he think of it! The magical beasts that were able to live near the lonely snowfield, should have a little bit of ice nature, although its ice nature was not that strong! Since there was one, it could be used to make a guardian of ice nature!

He suddenly held Ellena's hand and shook it up and down, bowing deeply.

"Thank you, thank you so much! I'm going now. Please give me some time. I'll send the materials to you soon!"

After saying that, Roja ran to the lonely snowfield without looking back.

Ellena still stretched out her hand, stunned for a moment. She didn't withdraw her hand until Roja disappeared in Green-Hand Village.

"Don't take it too seriously. He is just too excited. If he offended you, I apologize to you on behalf of him."

Edward said to Ellena with a smile. Ellena smiled back at Edward. She lowered her head and continued to fiddle with her long sword.

"I understand. If you need any help, just tell me. Roja has done so much for us. I'm glad if I can help him."

Roja headed north all the way. He didn't stop until he was almost unable to hold on to the extreme cold around him. He carefully hid around and waited for the magical beasts to pass by.

He didn't know the geographical environment here, nor did he know the habits of the magical beasts here. Instead of taking the initiative to attack, he might as well lurk here and wait for the magical beasts to take the bait.

Roja had thought that he would have to wait for a long time, but he didn't expect to hear the sound of the magical beasts after waiting for only more than ten minutes.

A slight vibration from the ground told Roja the location of the magical beast. He carefully shrank into the grass, only revealing his eyes. He looked in the direction of the magical beast.

It was a long and slender lizard, about 1.5 meters long. The scales on its back were erected upwards, showing the shape of ice crystals.

Especially that pair of eyes, from a distance, it was almost impossible to tell whether it was a creature's eyes or a large piece of ice.

"Magical beast: ice demonic lizard. Grade: LV18. Blood vitality: 2000, strength: 700, energy: 600, defense: 650, agility:300. Talent: ice defense. The explosive rate: 6%."

The Eyes of God had provided information about this ice demonic lizard. Its level was just right. Roja decided to start with this magical beast.

Because he didn't want to disturb other magical beasts, he chose to use poison. He was just in the upward direction of the ice demonic lizard.

The ice demonic lizard didn't have good olfaction, so it couldn't detect the smell of Roja. However, Roja could send the poison into the body of the ice demonic lizard by taking advantage of the wind.

,m Roja gently opened a small bottle containing the poison. He fanned the bottle with his hand, letting the poisonous gas quickly float out of the bottle.

A faint fragrance, accompanied by the wind, soon reached the nose of the ice demonic lizard.

The giant body of the ice demonic lizard suddenly stopped. It fiercely shook its head a few times, seeming to have sensed the change in its body.

Its limbs twitched, and its huge body trembled. Its eyes showed a layer of black, which seemed to be dying soon.

But then something unexpected happened. The ice demonic lizard's head twitched a few times, and then its whole body burst out an icy blue light.

Then it opened its big mouth and coughed desperately. Several blue ice balls fell out of its nose and throat, and there seemed to be some liquid that could flow in the ice balls.

The ice demonic lizard used the cold air to freeze the poison in its body, and then condensed the poison into an ice ball and discharged it from its body!

That was awesome! If it weren't for the poison that could kill the ice demonic lizard instantly, it wouldn't have been able to work!

Roja sighed in his heart. Seeing that the ice demonic lizard was nervously searching the surrounding environment, he didn't dare to delay any longer.

He took a deep breath. When the ice demonic lizard raised its head, its four limbs supported hard on the ground and suddenly jumped up from the ground.

A blurry moonlight flashed through his hand and slid close to the lower jaw of the ice demonic lizard.

He used the moonlight machete instead of the knight sword because the machete's attack was faster and could quickly end the battle.

When Roja's body left the ice demonic lizard, he was surprised to find that there was a thick layer of ice on his blade. The attack speed of the moonlight machete dropped by half, and the cold air passed all the way through the hilt to his palm.

Although there was a huge wound on the ice demonic lizard's neck, the blood flowing out was frozen in the blink of an eye.

The freezing ice froze the wound, even the armor breaking effect of the moonlight machete disappeared. It could be said that the damage to the ice demonic lizard was negligible.

Seeing the ice demonic lizard rushing towards him, Roja immediately took out the knight sword.

The heavy body of the sword and Roja's power withstood the impact of the ice demonic lizard, but countless ice thorns were stabbed into Roja's body along with the impact of the ice demonic lizard.

Although the attack power was not very high and didn't break Roja's defense, the piercing cold air wrapped around Roja's body, like an invisible rope, strangling Roja's flesh.

"Damn it! Why are the magical beasts so strange on the snowfield? It's obvious that this skill is not within the scope of the Eyes of God!"

Roja complained in his heart, but he didn't stop what he was doing.

He let go of the hilt of the knight sword, slid his whole body against the blade, and went out from the gap of the ice awl.

The ice demonic lizard didn't notice Roja's movement. It only felt that the heavy sword in front of it seemed to have loosened a little, so it was more excited and hit the heavy sword with more strength.

Roja pulled out his knife in the rumble.

The ice demonic lizard only felt a sharp pain coming from the back of its neck. When it wanted to turn around again, it fell feebly to the ground.

Although the moonlight machete's attacking speed was reduced by 50%, it still cut the back neck of the ice demonic lizard and broke its bone.

Chapter 96

Even if the ice demonic lizard could freeze its wound to reduce its damage, its neck was cut off, no matter how fierce the magical beast was, it could not continue to survive. 𝙡𝓲𝒃𝓻𝓮𝙖𝒅.𝙘𝓸𝒎

When the white light integrated into Roja's body, it meant that the ice demonic lizard had completely lost its life.

To Roja's surprise, after the ice demonic lizard was killed, its blood was not red, but pure white.

The blood was stuck to Roja's hand. Roja felt a burning pain in his arm, which was caused by the extremely low temperature and was like a fire.

Roja couldn't help but snort. He quickly wiped off the blood on his arm, took out a bottle and carefully collected the blood of the ice demonic lizard.

The blood flowed into the bottle. Roja felt that his hand holding the bottle was getting colder and colder. He didn't dare to let the blood continue to flow in his hand, so he quickly put it into the storage ring.

The blood was a good thing! It could make such a low temperature, which might be useful in making defensive equipment.

"System, plunder."

"Plundering."

"Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-D talent: ice defense."

Although this talent was not very outstanding, it was his first ice talent. Perhaps it would play a great role in the lonely snowfield in the future.

When Roja placed the whole body of the ice demonic lizard in front of Ellena, both Ellena and Edward were surprised with their mouths wide open.

"Did you get it back? It was only been 30 minutes. It's too fast!"

Edward asked a stupid question, but no one laughed at him. Ellena looked very serious. She looked at the corpse in front of her and slowly touched the scales on the back of the ice demonic lizard.

"Appraisal."

Two words came out of Ellena's mouth slowly. Her eyes lit up, and the starry light gathered around her eyes, making her eyes look more shining.

"This is my professional talent awakened after I became a level-three casting master. It can help me to better identify the properties of the materials and make more exquisite items."

Ellena explained to Roja as she carefully observed the body of the ice demonic lizard.

Roja looked at her carefully and wanted to learn her identification method, but suddenly he saw the personal information bar in front of him shake.

He turned his head to look at Edward, who was standing next to him. Noticing that he didn't see the information bar, he went to check it.

"Hint: your level-A talent eye has detected that there is a talent related to eye around, you've learned automatically. Eye proficiency +1. You can freely use the appraisal talent."

Roja's mouth was wide open. He looked left and right. Edward looked at him in confusion but didn't say anything. It seemed that he didn't see the personal information bar in front of Roja.

Roja didn't expect that the way to increase his five senses talent was through learning other talents!

Ellena's hand moved along the scales of the ice demonic lizard carefully, it seemed that she was deciding how to cut the beast's hide. After a long time, the light in her eyes disappeared.

She suddenly sat on the chair, picked up the water beside her, drank it up, and gasped for breath. It seemed that using this talent was a burden to her.

She wiped the sweat on her head and said to Roja.

"The skin, bones and tendons of this magical beast are all very good materials. But if you want to make an armor that can withstand the extreme cold you said, you need the most important thing."

Roja asked,

"What's missing? I'll go back and look for it right away."

Ellena waved her hand, indicating Roja to stop and listen to her.

"If you go back to look for it now, you have to find another magical beast. The most suitable way to forge this kind of defensive item must use the blood produced by the magical beast, otherwise, even if it is successfully refined, its quality will not be able to help you resist the cold."

After hearing what Ellena said, Roja burst into laughter. He took out a bottle filled with the blood of the ice demonic lizard from his storage ring like conjuring and put it in front of Ellena.

The bottle of blood had solidified in Roja's storage ring. When Roja took it out of the storage ring, he had already taken out a large piece of ice.

If it was a little later, the bottle of ice blood might freeze Roja's whole storage ring.

Looking at the blood in front of her, Ellena's eyes lit up with surprise. She raised the bottle with both hands. Although her hand was soon covered with a layer of frost, she didn't notice it at all.

"Honey, this is a great treasure! It was so wise of you to collect this bottle of blood at that time! With this bottle of blood, I am confident that I can refine your armor to the apotheosis of all level-four items!"

Ellena was so happy that she danced with joy. Holding the bottle of blood and dragging the corpse of the magical beast, she ran into her wooden house without looking back. Before she left, she closed the door with a bang.

Seeing the suspended business listing on the door constantly shaking, Roja scratched his head helplessly. He turned to Edward and asked.

"Is this very common? How long does it usually take for her to come out?"

Edward shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Roja.

"That's how she is. She doesn't want to wait for one more second as soon as she gets the new materials. I'm not sure how long it will take, but when she comes out, she will definitely give you a big surprise. Don't worry about that."

Roja also knew that he couldn't be too hasty. If she lowered the quality of the items in order to be in a hurry, it would be a loss for him.

All of a sudden, the door was opened and Ellena rushed out. She put a storage ring into Roja's hand and said in a hurry.

"Your storage ring's level is no longer comparable. I've made a new one for you. Remember to change the old one."

After saying that, Ellena ran back without looking back. It seemed that it was a waste of her life to stay outside for one more second.

Roja looked at the storage ring in his hand. When he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the sound of notice of the system from the sky.

"Announcement: No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village already has 100 level-two wooden houses, and the rookie castle is automatically promoted to level two. Increase all the attributes by 10%. The mental recovery of the residents in the castle increased by 10. At present, the defensive array could resist 20 attacks from the sky envoys."

Chapter 97

That's too fast! Up to now, it had been less than a day since the rookie castle was built by No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village. On the entire chat channel, there were no other Green-Hand Villages that exceeded No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village!

"Roja, my friend, have you seen that? You really created a cohesive Green-Hand Village. I'm sure our old rivals will be shocked!"

Edward pulled Roja's hand and said excitedly. Roja was a little dizzy now. He didn't expect that the villagers were so enthusiastic that they could gather 100 level-two wooden houses in such a short time.

"Announcement: if you want to update your rookie castle to the next level, you need to have 100 level-three wooden houses. At the same time, all the wooden houses in Green-Hand Village must reach level two."

"Hint: please name the castle as soon as possible. If the castle hasn't been named before tomorrow, the system will automatically assign a name to it."

"Yes, our castle has no name yet. In my opinion, our castle was built with the effort of Mr. Roja. Why don't we call it Roja Village?"

"Although we built the castle with Mr. Roja's effort, I don't think the name is powerful enough."

"How could it be not powerful enough? Look at the other Green-Hand Villages, they used to be arrogant, but now when they mention Roja's name, they are all frightened!"

"I don't think it's necessary to use a person's name. Mr. Roja is powerful and elegant as an eagle. How about we call it Eagle Village?"

"It is not good. Don't you feel strange to call it?"

"Should we ask Mr. Roja? After all, he is the founder of this castle, and he is our castellan. The right to name it should belong to him!"

"Yes, Mr. Roja. Please come out and give our Green-Hand Village an impressive name!"

"Those plunderers want to laugh at us every day, but so what? We are still far behind them. I think we can name this way!"

Everyone was talking about the name of their village and castle. Many people had called on Roja to give them a powerful name.

Edward looked at the villagers and said to Roja with a smile.

"Well, my dear castellan, you see, this is what everyone wants. Go quickly to respond to everyone's expectations. You have to use the naming right well."

Roja scratched his scalp. It was a little difficult for him to name the castle now, but he couldn't refuse everyone's generous invitation on the chatting channel.

Moreover, he didn't want to wait for the system to name the Green-Hand Village Castle automatically. With the aesthetic view of this world, he didn't know if his castle would have a ridiculous name.

He looked at the chat channel and thought carefully.

Suddenly, he patted his head and smiled happily.

"My friends, our Green-Hand Village has always been under the siege of strong enemies. We have created all kinds of impossible miracles. Those who once tried to conquer us have now been trampled underfoot by us."

"Such an experience reminded me of a plant in my hometown called bramble. Although it is not very beautiful, it can live in a bad environment and won't hurt people on its own, but it is not afraid of the enemy!"

Everyone stopped talking and listened to Roja quietly.

"So I think our Green-Hand Village castle will be called Bramble City from now on!"

With the final decision of Roja, the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village cheered up. Their castle finally had its own name, and it was named by their most respected castellan!

The name of bramble was engraved in people's hearts of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village, and became a totem in their hearts. From then on, no matter where they went, the bramble would guide them!

Roja took out the castellan appointment letter and solemnly wrote the word bramble on the blank of the castle's name.

"Announcement: No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village will be named Bramble City from now on, and the name will belong to No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village only. From now on, no castle can be named with this word."

As the announcement fell slowly, the bramble patterning appeared on the castellan appointment letter in Roja's hand and shone with golden light, gorgeous and stubborn.

"Great! From now on, our Green-Hand Village also has its own name! From now on, every one of us can be proud to say that we are from Bramble City!"

Roja heaved a long sigh of relief. He felt so happy.

He saw that the patterns of bramble appeared on the city wall around their Green-Hand Village and merged into the original patterns of the city wall bricks. The strong golden light covered the city wall, gorgeous and elegant.

"Congratulations! Your castle has reached level two. Unfortunately, there are only 60 level-two wooden houses in our Green-Hand Village now, which are far from upgrading to the level-two castle."

After reading the announcement, Sphinx immediately sent a message to Roja to congratulate him.

Sphinx was full of praise for the name of Bramble City.

"That's a good name! Bramble is very suitable for your Green-Hand Village! I think this should be the flower that suits your Green-Hand Village best! It is like you, a miraculous flower blooming in bitter and cold!" 𝒍𝓲𝙗𝒓𝒆𝓪𝒅.𝙘𝒐𝓶

Roja took a look at their Green-Hand Village. Their castle's name was Tulip Castle, luxurious and gorgeous, which was in line with Sphinx's personality.

Although the people of No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village were very satisfied with this name, not everyone could congratulate No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village as calmly as Sphinx did.

"Why do you name your castle with bramble? The flower of that kind of plant is small and full of thorns. It's not like a gentleman's elegance at all!"

"Look at our Tulip Castle, named by Sphinx! It's so elegant! It's so different from the countryside!"

"Well, countryside people are countryside people. How can they have any aesthetic sense?"

Roja ignored these comments and just said casually.

"Jealousy makes people like pigs and dogs."

Chapter 98

Roja's words were the most powerful counterattack. His words broke the darkness in the hearts of those despicable people and repelled their arrogant words.

Their thoughts were exposed. Even though they were still shouting harshly, they looked a little weak.

This was truly a great pleasure. The people in No. 1002548 Green-Hand Village also applauded Roja. For a moment, Roja's words were almost regarded as God's words.

As long as a person showed up on the chatting channel and attacked others with mean words, people would say the same words to mock those who were full of jealousy in their hearts.

The second morning, as soon as Roja woke up, he saw his personal information page constantly flashing.

Only then did he realize that a month had passed since the ranking list was released. It was time to release the reward.

There was an extra level-A treasure box in his backpack, which was the reward for first place on the ranking list. He didn't hear the announcement. Maybe he had missed it in his sleep.

He couldn't wait to open the level-A treasure box. With the white light flashing, a pair of shoes appeared in Roja's hand.

The shoes were surrounded by clouds. On the side of the shoes, there was a tiny wing. It was a cartoon as if it was projected from an animation.

"Level-five item: cloud boots. It was said that it was made of clouds in the sky, which could make the user's body as light as clouds. Agility+60. Extra skill: mount clouds."

"Mount clouds: the user can obtain the ability to fly for ten minutes, and his speed can increase by one hundred percent. Cool down time: 60 minutes."

No wonder it was a level-five item. The flying time it could provide was actually increased to ten minutes! Moreover, in the process of flying, his speed could actually increase by one hundred percent!

His level-three butterfly boots could only provide ten seconds of flying. Every time he used them, he had to calculate the time carefully. It was really not enough.

Ten minutes' flying time, coupled with a 100% increase in speed, was actually almost the same as a true flying talent!

Roja was overjoyed. He quickly put on the cloud boots and felt his body become very light. With a light jump, Roja was surprised to find that he was one meter taller than usual!

Roja felt that his agility had increased a lot before he activated the fly talent.

No wonder it was a level-five item! The effect was not a level-three item could match!

Roja thought to himself. According to his experiments, he even found that his boots could be disguised as cloth shoes.

He put away the two tiny wings and the mist. This level-five item didn't seem to be much more beautiful than the level-one item.

When Roja was about to test the flying ability of the boots, a sudden knock on the door interrupted him.

Roja answered. When he was about to open the door, he heard a loud noise. He rushed out of his room and saw that the door of his wooden house had been knocked down, and a figure rushed to him.

"Why don't you open the door? Didn't you hear me knocking at the door? Don't you want the item I made for you? I made it for a whole night! Hurry up and put it on!"

The figure said in a hurry, trying to grab Roja's body with both hands. Roja stopped in a hurry. If he acted a little late, his clothes might be taken off.

It was not until then that he realized who that was. It was Ellena.

At this moment, with her dark circles, her beautiful face was also affected, but she had a special charm.

At this time, she also realized that her behavior was a little inappropriate. She quickly loosened Roja's clothes, rubbed her eyes and tidied up her messy hair.

She took two steps back and cleared her throat before speaking.

"It's early in the morning. Don't you wake up? I knocked on the door. You should have heard it, right? Why don't you open the door?"

Roja grabbed his hair and looked at Ellena up and down.

"Well, I just got up. Even if I heard you knock, I still have to take time to open the door for you."

Ellena waved her hand randomly, indicating that Roja didn't have to go on. A light flashed in her hand, and a thin armor appeared in her hand.

Under the sun, there was a faint blue light on the armor. It seemed that the patterns of the scales flickered on it, reflecting a gem-like pattern.

It didn't feel as cold as an ordinary armor. Instead, it was warm as if there was a faint flame burning in the palm of his hand, from the palm to the bottom of his heart.

"It's so thin. Can it resist the cold on the lonely snowfield?"

Roja looked at the armor over and over. He couldn't help admiring its gorgeous appearance. But the armor was so thin that it was a little thicker than Roja's clothes.

Roja was curious about the effect of this armor.

"Can it resist or not? How could you ask such a question? Are you doubting my ability? Dress it quickly! Otherwise, I will break this armor!"

Ellena roared at Roja like a lion.

Under her gaze, Roja felt guilty and quickly put on the armor.

His armor tightened automatically and clung to Roja's skin, almost integrated with his body. The warm feeling was more obvious. There was even a faint orange glow around Roja's body.

"This armor is a perfectly level-four item. My skills haven't reached the peak yet, and I haven't been able to make it to level five. However, this armor still has room for improvement,"

Ellena looked at Roja's armor as if she was looking at her own child. Her tone was a little regretful, but more excited.

"The reason why I named it sign armor is that it can make any environment sigh. I added a heart of LV16 fire magical beast, which can change its temperature."

"Whether it's cold or hot, this armor can adjust the temperature according to the user's condition. At the same time, it also has an additional skill."

Ellena's eyes sparkled with unusual light. Her hand gently slid on her armor. 𝓁𝒾𝘣𝑟𝑒𝘢𝘥.𝘤𝘰𝑚

"Additional skill: sign wall. You will be invincible for one second in a day!"

Chapter 99

Roja took a deep breath! I would be invincible for one second! 𝙡𝙞𝓫𝙧𝙚𝓪𝒅.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Although one second seemed very short, with Roja's current attacking speed and agility, there were too many things that he could do in this second!

And this was a full second of invincible time, representing the ability to defend against all attacks! Even if his opponent's combat power was a dozen times stronger than his, in this one second, his opponent could do nothing to him!

Only God knew how could this perfectly level-four item have such an incredible ability, and only God knew how much effort Ellena had put into this item!

"Thank you. I don't know how to express my appreciation. If you need any help in the future, just say it. I will do it for you."

At this moment, Ellena suddenly became shy. Her cheeks were slightly red. She looked away from Roja and said.

"It's just an item. You don't need to thank me so much. It's time for me to do something for you after you have done so much."

She kept silent for a while as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she said.

"I know you are going to the lonely snowfield. There must be many types of magical beasts that are not available here. With my level, I'm afraid it will take a long time for me to go there. It will be too late then."

"When you came back from that place, I would be very grateful if you could bring me more magical beasts' corpses as materials. In this way, I can make more good items."

How could Roja refuse such a simple request? He patted his chest and promised that if he met magical beasts, he would leave the corpses and bring them back to Ellena for the experiment.

Seeing Roja nod in agreement, Ellena smiled at Roja and ran away.

As soon as Ellena left, Edward walked in with a smile.

"I saw her come to you early in the morning. Are you satisfied with the stuff?"

Roja nodded. He took off his clothes inside the armor and put them on the outside. Although the armor was directly attached to Roja's skin, it did not cause any discomfort to him as if it was already a layer of Roja's skin.

"Are you leaving? Can I ask you something?"

Hearing Edward's question, Roja knew that he did have something to ask him for help. Otherwise, according to Edward's character, he would never easily ask for help.

"Tell me, what's it? As long as I can help, I'll do it."

Edward nodded and said slowly.

"If we want to upgrade our Green-Hand Village to the next level, we need a lot of materials. I think if we can use the high-level upgrade method, the properties provided for the castle must be more powerful. So."

Edward hesitated for a while and finally didn't say anything.

But Roja had already known what Edward wanted to say. He wanted Roja to help him bring back more cold pool stones, which could also make the castle more powerful.

But he asked Roja for something directly, and even asked Roja to take the risk to get it, which made Edward a little embarrassed.

Roja smiled and patted Edward on the shoulder.

"Well, I know what you are thinking about. Don't worry. I will bring as many things as possible. After all, I am also the castellan of this castle. If the property is increased, I can get more benefits, right?"

Seeing Roja speak out what he wanted to say, Edward breathed a sigh of relief. His nervous expression finally eased a little.

"It's great that you can understand me. I've hesitated for a long time about whether I should tell you or not. I didn't expect that you didn't hesitate at all."

After saying goodbye to Edward Roja, he packed up his things and put on the evolved cloak that Edward gave him, heading to the far north.

Before he left, he specially issued an announcement at No. 102548 Green-Hand Village.

"All the villagers, please trust me. I will give you better materials to build wooden houses. So before I come back with the materials, please don't continue to collect ordinary materials to build wooden houses."

All the villagers agreed with Roja's announcement. Everyone's attention was focused on killing magical beasts to upgrade.

Since Roja had provided them with better materials, for these people, the first goal was to snatch to upgrade and improve the combat effectiveness of the whole Green-Hand Village.

It was not until he entered the area of the snowfield that Roja felt the horror of the far north.

The cold wind roared, like a beast that would never be tired. The snow hit his body like a stone, making a metallic roar as if he was in a rain of bullets.

Roja's sigh armor emitted a layer of the fiery red ring, forming a circle of light mist around his body, helping him to resist the piercing cold.

Roja could only hear the constant whistling, but he didn't feel cold. Instead, he felt a warm air flowing around his body.

What a precious treasure! If it weren't for this armor, he would have turned into an ice sculpture the moment he entered the lonely snowfield.

Roja trod on thick snow that was calf-deep. But the red mist around Roja's body made him walk very easy and created a path on the snow.

The whistling cold wind covered the sound of magical beasts, and the flying snow covered the traces of magical beasts. In this kind of climate, it was almost impossible to find the magical beasts that were approaching in advance.

So Roja was very careful all the way. Due to the thick snow and frozen earth on the ground, which cut off the connection between Roja and the ground, he couldn't judge the traces of magical beasts from the vibration of the ground, so he could only hide his whereabouts while moving forward.

However, in the snowfield, magical beasts' perception was very sensitive, and Roja was soon targeted.

Perhaps the magical beast was also thinking about what this new species was, following Roja from a distance.

However, the magical beast had almost run out of its patience. The fresh smell of its prey stimulated its nerves.

It was extremely difficult to find prey in this snowfield. Now, another prey that it had never seen before appeared in front of it. How could it bear it?

Roja heard a roar mixed with the roar of the snowfield. He suddenly turned around and saw a large bloody mouth pouncing on him.

Chapter 100

Ice protection talent activated. A thick layer of ice crystals appeared around Roja's body, helping him resist the bite of the magical beast.

However, this barrier couldn't hold on for too long under this huge impact. It broke apart in a few seconds.

Roja took the advantage of these few seconds to retreat. Only then did he vaguely see the appearance of the magical beast in the snowstorm.

It seemed to be a gorilla with strong arms and a dark face. Two huge cuspids protruded from its lips, as long as a palm.

Its whole body was covered with ashy hair, which made it hide in the whistling storm. Even Roja couldn't see its outline clearly, so he could only judge its position by its strange face.

"Magical beast: giant ice ape, level: LV19, blood vitality: 2400, energy: 700, strength: 800, defense: 800, agility:400. Talent: snowstorm. Explosive rate: 12%."

As soon as Roja saw the information about the magical beast, he lost the trace of the magical beast. The giant ice ape's body was hidden in the snowstorm, and in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared.

The snowstorm covered its body, so Roja couldn't even hear it running on the snowfield.

A gust of wind blew over Roja's face. Although the light of his armor didn't cover Roja's sight, the snow-white snowstorm covered Roja's eyes.

Roja noticed that part of the snowstorm didn't move in the original trajectory, but flew towards him.

The special snowstorm was very aggressive. It hit the light around Roja's body and made a sharp sound.

Besides, due to the snowstorm, Roja's movement ability was greatly hindered. He was almost frozen in place and could not move forward at all.

Although the snowstorm wouldn't penetrate the light of the sigh armor in a short time, Roja's energy would be exhausted as time went by.

The continuous activation of the talent would also make the giant ice ape's energy decline. However, it was the magical beast that lived on the snowfield, and could recover its energy and blood vitality in the snowfield.

Roja took a deep breath and slowly activated the wind controlling talent.

The affinity of the wind element enabled Roja to feel the change of every wisp of wind, so he could track the source of those strange snowflakes.

With the flying snowflakes, Roja finally found the giant ice ape hiding in the snowfield.

At this moment, the magical beast was holding its hands and controlling the snowstorm, not noticing that Roja had found its trace.

Roja was amused. He manipulated the wind around him to leave a human-shaped mark on the spot, and at the same time, he sneaked into the snowstorm silently.

It was not until Roja approached the giant ice ape that it realized that the target it had been attacking was no longer Roja, but an ethereal wind!

It roared angrily and looked for Roja in the snowstorm. But Roja had been hidden in the wind. How could it find him?

After searching for a while, it didn't find anything. The giant ice ape thought that it had lost its prey. It roared a few times in disappointment, turned around, and was about to return to its own territory.

However, Roja didn't intend to let it go. He had already quietly followed the giant ice ape. When the giant ice ape relaxed its vigilance, it didn't know that danger had quietly arrived.

A sharp pain came from behind. Roja's moonlight machete scratched its thick fur and stabbed into its body deeply.

The giant ice ape roared. It wanted to spin its body and throw Roja down, but Roja's body was firmly nailed to its back, constantly expanding the wound.

Although the giant ice ape's defensive power and blood vitality were extremely outstanding, Roja's moonlight machete had already deeply pierced into its internal organs. Not long after, the giant ice ape fell to the ground, turning into a corpse. 𝙡𝒊𝒃𝓻𝒆𝒂𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Roja easily jumped down from the back of the giant ice ape, took out a bottle, collected all the blood of the giant ice ape, and then put a hand on its body.

"System, plunder."

"Plundering."

"Plunder succeeded. Congratulations to you for obtaining the level-C talent: snowstorm."

"Snowstorm: create a snowstorm within a radius of 20 meters around the user. If you were in a snowstorm, you would obtain a special enhancement, and the range would be expanded to 80 meters. At the same time, you could control the snowstorm within the range."

Although the talent was not on a high level, it was the first ice and snow degree talent of Roja.

Although the radius of 20 meters was not very large, the enhancement he could obtain in the blizzard land was extremely huge! For Roja, this would be a great help to his action!

Roja had just put the level-C treasure box that the giant ice ape had burst out into his backpack when he heard a few beast's roars indistinctly coming from the snowstorm.

In this extremely cold place, the smell of the blood did not seem to be as strong as in a place with a warm climate. But for the magical beasts that lived on this snowfield, even if there was only a faint smell of the blood, it would still attract their attention.

After putting the corpse of the giant ice ape into the storage ring, Roja carefully bent over on the snowfield and hid the light emitted from his sigh armor, covering only the surface of his body.

Then he buried his body in the snow.

With the two talents, snowstorm and wind controlling, Roja was able to clearly sense the changes on the snowfield even he was covered by the snow.

Accompanied by the sound of running, more than a dozen giant ice apes came to the place where the battle had just happened.

Roja guessed that these giant ice apes might be from the same group and were attracted by the familiar smell and the smell of the blood.

But when they came here, they did not find the corpse of their prey or their companions. Therefore, these giant ice apes were looking around to find the source of the familiar smell.

However, they didn't notice that killing intent was quietly brewing in the snowfield beneath their feet.

The sharp blade roared and broke the snowstorm. Several giant ice apes suddenly turned their heads. Before they could react, they only felt darkness in front of them. The pain pierced into their brains and instantly devoured their consciousness.

Roja's moonlight machete flashed in front of them in an instant, instantly taking away the sight of the giant ice apes, and the next blade swept past their throats, taking their lives.
