Su Xiao wanted to break out, but there were too many enemies, densely packed all around, obscuring the view of the distant scene.
The shouts of the red-skinned natives and the roars of the scorpions joined together on the battlefield, both sides suffering quick casualties yet neither retreating.
If one side is defeated, the land will be taken away, and the living conditions will worsen—this is a racial war.
Red blood and green bodily fluids mixed together, Su Xiao’s eyes hawk-like as he surveyed his surroundings, killing any creature daring to approach him. If he didn’t kill them, they would kill him—this is the battlefield, where reason holds no ground.
It’s no longer possible to break out; survival amidst the fighting is now crucial.
With a sweep of the blade, two scorpions were simultaneously severed, and as Su Xiao turned and kicked, a red-skinned native’s head was deformed.
Quickly pulling out the Dragon’s Strength potion, he applied it to his hands.
Origin: Reincarnation Paradise
Effect: Apply this potion to the skin surface, increases power by +2, stamina by +2, and abnormal state resistance by +20%. Effect lasts ten minutes.
Shelf Life: Seven days.
Description: Never drink it, although it offers a powerful boost of +15 in power, agility, and stamina, the user will die within thirty seconds.
With a physical attribute of 46 points, Su Xiao showed no signs of exhaustion after ten minutes of bathing in blood and fighting.
Surrounded by piles of shattered corpses, Su Xiao stood atop the towering mound of bodies, like a martial god of the battlefield.
The red-skinned natives around looked at Su Xiao in horror, their legs trembling, not daring to approach for the moment.
The red-skinned natives dared not advance, but the scorpions didn’t care; they had no brains, and fear had nothing to do with them.
Several scorpions climbed the mound, but before they could approach Su Xiao, a few white streaks flashed through the air, and the scorpions were sliced into pieces.
Su Xiao leapt off the mound, jumping into the midst of the scorpions.
A circular cleave appeared, and where it passed, the scorpions’ bodies broke apart, creating a five-meter wide circle around Su Xiao.
Holding the knife with both hands, Su Xiao took a deep breath.
Slashing out of thin air, a faint blue blade aura separated from the edge of the Dragon Slash.
Zheng, the Dragon Slash emitted a metallic chime.
The blade aura flew into the main force of scorpions, as where it passed, the scorpions fell like wheat being reaped.
After the blade aura passed, a two-meter wide and ten-meter long passage appeared, full of green blood and struggling, dying scorpions.
Just as Su Xiao wanted to break through here, within two seconds, the scorpions swarmed and filled the ’tunnel’.
Su Xiao seemed invincible on the battlefield, even a mere glance could mean death.
The scorpions wouldn’t get close in the short term, so he turned to look at the red-skinned Eaters.
"Walala Kabat (unknown language)."
The red-skinned natives clearly had no intention to approach Su Xiao; they began circling around him, their enemy being the scorpions, not Su Xiao.
Discovering the red-skinned natives’ attitude, Su Xiao frowned.
Last night, those red-skinned natives showed no fear—even the intense pain inflicted by Blue Steel Shadow was ignored.
The red-skinned natives seen today were different; though weaker, they would wail when injured, and showed fear and panic.
Compared to those seen yesterday, the current red-skinned natives were closer to humans—those from yesterday seemed like killing machines specifically groomed for slaughter.
The war continued, and though the red-skinned natives were frightened off by Su Xiao, the scorpions flooded in once more. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
All creatures near Su Xiao were killed without mercy, let alone these war weapons.
The scorpions had weak attributes. If they lined up, Su Xiao could slay a row with one swing, but their sheer numbers were overwhelming.
Breaking out seemed hopeless, leaving only continued slaughter as the war dragged on.
With all four of Su Xiao’s attributes surpassing 40 points and Sword Technique Master at Lv.21, his combat strength in war was terrifying.
Moreover, Su Xiao wielded a knife, fearless against the massive horde of oncoming enemies.
The killing moment commenced, and beast corpses piled up around Su Xiao.
Half an hour later, Su Xiao had already forgotten the number of scorpions killed; hundreds? No, possibly over a thousand.
In the distant battlefield, six female Contractors laid prone on a nearby hillside.
"It’s starting again; we just narrowly escaped yesterday—do these two races war every day?"
A timid healer cowered behind the hill, observing the battlefield with binoculars.
"Starving, we must leave the red soil area quickly; after the war ends, we’ll cross the battlefield. If intelligence is correct, the other side is the ordinary area."
Said another female Contractor, carrying a sniper rifle, radiating a cold and pristine aura—she rarely spoke to outsiders except her team members.
These six were all members of the Other Shore Flower Adventure Group; like Su Xiao, they landed in the red soil area.
This day, they experienced the horror of the red soil area first-hand. All were injured, and without healer Candy, they would have had casualties.
"Leader, there’s something strange in the battlefield."
Candy, holding binoculars, looked towards the battlefield center and saw a human amidst the fight, surrounded by corpses.
Candy’s voice quivered, bringing back unpleasant memories.
"Leader, that man has appeared!"
Cold Moon’s pupils contracted, grabbing the binoculars from Candy to look towards the battlefield center.
"Finally found that guy, let’s take him out now."
Sniper Feng handled the sniper rifle from her back, focusing the scope on the battlefield center.
Vice leader Blood Rose hung her head, silently.
The cunning strategist pushed her black-rimmed glasses, eyes vacant, seemingly contemplating something.
"Sword Man? The one you mentioned before?"
Newly recruited main tank Lorna drew closer, her figure not strong, even somewhat slender, with deep wine-red hair and a jasmine aroma around her.
Lorna was a little excited, having heard about how strong that Sword Man was from team members, yet she wasn’t convinced—she wouldn’t believe until she saw it with her own eyes. She wanted to face that Sword Man.
Lorna was different from other members of Other Shore Flower; she harbored a wild ambition—to win over Cold Moon, as a main tank with unique personal inclination.
Cold Moon continuously observed the battlefield, her expression growing grim.
"Monster! Becoming excessively strong."
Cold Moon clenched her fists, pounding on the grassy ground.
The cunning strategist took the binoculars, observed for a while, then shook her head.
"Without a good opportunity, running up now means death, unless he falls into that cliff over there and dies."
Feng only needed a glance at Su Xiao through the scope before quickly shifting away—she felt an urge that continued targeting him would expose her.
Lorna looked at everyone’s reactions with some confusion, reaching for the binoculars, which the cunning strategist didn’t release, perplexing Lorna.
"Better have some mental preparation; he’s our mortal enemy—one of life and death, with no reconciliation possible."
Lorna nodded, though inwardly dismissive, her strength even slightly surpassing Cold Moon.
