"Little Ancestor, slow down—System, remember, sour plum soup with osmanthus and ice!"
Wu Hen staggered when Lu Baoyou pulled him, and almost fell to the ground and chewed mud.
After finally stabilizing himself, he rubbed his arms and complained helplessly.
The system's mechanical electronic voice rang in his mind: "Mission recorded."
"Host, friendly reminder, your order for sour plum soup has accumulated to 72 cups,"
"I suggest you consider opening a sour plum soup shop. You might even become the richest man in the Demon Suppression Division."
Wu Hen rolled his eyes: "Screw your richest man, I want to be the strongest demon slayer!"
"When the time comes, I'll open my sour plum soup shops all over the country, so that all the demon hunters can drink my special sour plum soup!"
"cut,"
Lu Baoyou turned around and made a face at him.
"You? The strongest demon slayer? I think you're more like the strongest foodie!"
The two returned to the camp, playing and joking, and saw a group of new recruits gathered together, chattering about something.
"Hey, did you see that? The knife that Lu Baoyou used just now..." A new recruit lowered his voice and said mysteriously.
"I saw it! Two mouths suddenly appeared! They looked like they were alive! I was so scared!"
The other recruit's eyes widened in horror.
Ding Chongfeng was also in the crowd. He frowned and looked at Lu Baoyou's back thoughtfully.
He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Hehe, the agent of the fallen angel is indeed quite interesting."
A skinny recruit smiled sinisterly, with a hint of excitement in his tone.
Next to him, a young recruit and a female recruit also showed the same smile.
"Now it's going to be a good show." The young recruit rubbed his hands, his tone full of anticipation.
"The power of the Fallen Angel is incompatible with the power of the Seraph. At the same level, the Seraph's agent is no match at all."
The skinny recruit explained, "Besides, Lu Baoyou's strength is already above theirs."
"Yeah, she's dead now." The female recruit said gloatingly.
An Qingyu stood not far away, watching all this with a frown on his face.
He quietly walked to Shen Qingzhu and whispered, "Qingzhu, do you feel that... Lu Baoyou is a little bit abnormal?"
Shen Qingzhu nodded: "Indeed, the aura on her body... is very strange."
At this moment, the skinny new recruit suddenly walked towards Lu Baoyou.
With a false smile on his face, he said, "Miss Lu, we are very interested in the power you have displayed. Why don't you join us and serve the great ancient gods together?"
Lu Baoyou looked puzzled: "Ancient God? What the hell is that? I'm not interested!"
"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink for it!" The skinny recruit's face changed, and he suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed Lu Baoyou.
"Looking for death!" Seeing this, Shen Qingzhu flashed and stood in front of Lu Baoyou. He swung the sword in his hand and knocked the dagger away.
"Who are you?" Lu Baoyou looked at the three people.
"Hmph! Since you don't know how to appreciate our courtesy, don't blame us for being rude!" The young recruits also drew their weapons, and the three of them attacked Lu Baoyou and Shen Qingzhu at the same time.
An Qingyu also joined the battle, and the long sword in his hand danced so fast that the enemy was blocked.
"Wu Hen, Lin Qiye, what are you two standing there for? Come and help!"
Lu Baoyou shouted while waving a straight knife.
Lin Qiye put his hands in his pockets and walked over slowly: "Don't be anxious, let's take a look at the situation first."
Wu Hen was excited: "System, are there any weird tasks? For example, fighting and square dancing at the same time?"
system:"……"
"Stop it!" Lin Qiye glared at him unhappily, "Come and help!"
Only then did Wu Hen put away his playful smile and joined the battle.
His movements seem random, but he can always neutralize the enemy's attacks at critical moments.
The battle became more and more intense, and Lu Baoyou gradually felt a little overwhelmed.
She didn't expect that these three new recruits were so powerful.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a powerful force surge into her body.
The two mouths on the straight knife let out sharp roars, and the blade became sharper.
Lu Baoyou felt her strength suddenly surge, and she swung her sword fiercely, forcing the three people back.
"What's going on?" The young recruit looked at Lu Baoyou in horror.
"How come her strength suddenly became so much stronger?"
"It's the power of corruption!" the skinny recruit said grimly. "It seems she's been completely controlled by the Fallen Angel!"
Lu Baoyou herself also felt a little strange. She clearly did not actively activate the power of corruption, so why did her power suddenly surge?
Just when she was puzzled, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her back...
"careful!"
A voice sounded in her ears, and then she saw a dagger piercing her back.
Lu Baoyou turned around suddenly and saw Ding Chongfeng standing behind her with a strange smile on his face...
"Be careful!" Lin Qiye's roar almost tore the air apart. He pounced on Lu Baoyou and caught her just before she fell.
The dagger pierced deeply into Lin Qiye's shoulder blade, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.
Wu Hen's eyes almost popped out, and the half compressed biscuit in his mouth fell to the ground.
"Fuck! Lao Lin!"
He didn't care about anything else and rushed to Lin Qiye. He hurriedly tore off his clothes and tried to help him stop the bleeding.
"System, is there any potion that can instantly heal? Or... turning back time would be fine!"
Wu Hen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
The system's cold voice remained unchanged: "Host, friendly reminder, you currently have insufficient points to redeem the relevant items."
"I recommend you complete the quest 'Chop 500 Bricks Barehanded' for a 'Super Band-Aid'."
Wu Hen almost spat out a mouthful of blood: "Chop your head off! Is this the time to joke?"
Lin Qiye gritted his teeth, his face pale, but he endured the severe pain.
He grabbed Wu Hen's arm and said, "Don't... don't worry about me... deal with those three guys first..."
An Qingyu has been watching this sudden change coldly.
He keenly caught the smug look that flashed across the skinny recruit's eyes, and alarm bells rang in his heart.
There's something wrong with these three guys!
He quietly walked around behind the three people, hid behind a thick old tree, pricked up his ears, and listened carefully to their conversation.
"What's going on? Why did Ding Chongfeng suddenly..." The young recruit's voice was full of confusion.
The skinny recruit snorted coldly, "There's something strange about this little girl. The power of corruption hasn't completely controlled her."
"It seems that the Night's Watch is more difficult to deal with than we thought."
The female recruit licked her lips, her eyes gleaming with greed. "No matter what, the power of corruption in this little girl will be of great use to us. Why not capture her and present her to the Lord Ancient God?"
A fierce look flashed in the skinny recruit's eyes: "Now is not the time to arrest people, kill them first!"
An Qingyu's heart trembled. It seemed that these three guys were indeed from the Ancient God Church!
Just as he was about to show up, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck and a sharp dagger was pressed against his throat.
"You...when..." An Qingyu's voice trembled a little.
The young recruit smiled sinisterly: "Do you think you're hiding well? We've already found you."
"Attack together!" The skinny recruit gave an order, and the three of them attacked An Qingyu at the same time.
Although An Qingyu was very powerful, he was caught off guard and still fell into a disadvantage.
He fought and retreated, trying to find an opportunity to counterattack.
"Lao An! Hold on!" Shen Qingzhu waved his sword and wanted to rush over to support, but was entangled by the female recruit.
"Qingzhu, be careful!" Lu Baoyou endured the severe pain in his back and joined the battle waving a straight knife.
The battlefield suddenly became chaotic, with swords flashing and sabers flying, and shouts of killing shaking the sky.
Wu Hen supported Lin Qiye and looked at the melee in front of him anxiously.
He wanted to rush over to help, but Lin Qiye's injuries prevented him from getting away.
"System, is there any way...even if it's a dirty trick!" Wu Hen's voice was almost pleading.
The system remained emotionless: "Host, friendly reminder, you can try using the 'honey trap'. According to data analysis, the female recruit has a favorable impression of you."
Wu Hen almost fainted: "Honey trap! Is now the time to discuss this?"
At this moment, An Qingyu suddenly let out a muffled groan. He was kicked away by the skinny recruit and fell heavily to the ground.
He struggled to get up, but felt a sharp pain in his chest and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Old An!" Shen Qingzhu exclaimed and wanted to rush over, but was stopped by the young recruit.
The skinny recruit walked towards An Qingyu step by step, his eyes flashing with bloodthirstiness: "Night Watchman, your doom has come!" He raised his dagger and stabbed An Qingyu's heart fiercely...
At this critical moment, a black coffin suddenly appeared beside An Qingyu.
The coffin lid slowly opened, and a white shadow floated out...
Let me tell you, this scene is thrilling!
It’s like you can smell the blood through the screen, and your adrenaline is rushing!
With a muffled "bang", the black coffin seemed to emerge from the ground and stood directly between An Qingyu and the fatal dagger.
I dare say that at that moment, everyone was stunned, including me.
A white shadow floated out of the coffin gracefully. Her figure and temperament were simply the legendary "Ice Beauty"!
No, it’s the “Iceberg Ghost”!
Wu Hen's eyes widened at that moment, and he almost blurted out dirty words.
He quickly covered Lin Qiye's mouth, fearing that this guy would talk nonsense due to excessive blood loss.
"Fuck, system, this... is this your doing? This reward is too... exciting!" Wu Hen lowered his voice, with a trembling tone.
The system's electronic voice remained as cold as ever: "This is a special plot trigger, and the reward is randomly generated. Host, please be aware that your 'lucky break' is about to arrive, so be sure to seize the opportunity."
"Hold on to your sister! Is now the time to talk about love?!"
Wu Hen was so devastated. It was already this late and the system was still trying to pimp him!
The white shadow floated in front of An Qingyu, and its pair of eyes without a trace of warmth scanned the members of the Ancient God Church in front of him.
"Anyone who trespasses into the forbidden area will be killed." Her voice was soft, but it carried a chilling chill, like a cold wind blowing from the Nine Nether Hell.
The skinny recruit's face changed. He could feel that the female ghost in front of him was not someone to be trifled with!
"Who are you? How dare you meddle in the affairs of our Ancient God Church?" The skinny recruit said in a timid tone, holding the dagger in his hand even tighter.
Bai Ying did not answer, but slowly raised a hand and pointed at the skinny recruit.
"boom!"
The skinny recruit's body exploded instantly, turning into a cloud of bloody mist, without even having time to scream.
"Fuck!" Wu Hen couldn't help but swear. This...this strength is too terrifying!
It’s a one-shot kill!
The young and female recruits were so frightened that they tried to escape by crawling and rolling.
Bai Ying raised his hand again and waved gently.
"Bang! Bang!"
There were two more explosions, and the remaining two members of the Ancient God Church followed the skinny recruit's footsteps and turned into bloody mist.
The whole process was smooth and neat, as if it was just a trivial matter.
After doing all this, Bai Ying slowly turned around and looked at An Qingyu who was lying on the ground.
"Are you... okay?" Her voice was still gentle, but with a hint of concern.
An Qingyu struggled to stand up, but found that he had no strength at all.
"I'm... fine." He said weakly.
The white shadow floated to An Qingyu's side, stretched out a cold finger, and gently touched his chest.
A warm force surged into An Qingyu's body, and he felt that his injuries were recovering rapidly.
"Thank you..." An Qingyu said gratefully.
Bai Ying shook his head, said nothing, and just looked at him quietly.
Wu Hen looked at the scene in front of him with mixed feelings.
He was shocked by Bai Ying's powerful strength and moved by her concern for An Qingyu.
"System, what...what is going on? Where does this female ghost come from?" Wu Hen couldn't help but ask in his heart.
The system was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "This is a special entity in the Forbidden Ruins. Specific information cannot be retrieved due to insufficient authority."
"Insufficient authority? There are times when you lack authority too?" Wu Hen couldn't believe his ears. Isn't this system said to be omnipotent?
"Host, please do not doubt the ability of this system."
"It's just that some things involve higher-level secrets, and with your current strength, you are not authorized to know."
Wu Hen rolled his eyes, too lazy to argue with the system.
He knew that this system must be pretending to be mysterious again.
At this moment, Lin Qiye suddenly coughed a few times and his face became even paler.
"Lao Lin! What happened to you?" Wu Hen quickly supported him and asked anxiously.
Lin Qiye shook his head and said weakly, "I'm fine... I just lost too much blood..."
Wu Hen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot
He suddenly remembered the "super band-aid" that the system had mentioned before.
"System, I... I accept the mission! I can split 500 bricks with my bare hands! Give me the super Band-Aid quickly!" Wu Hen roared almost crazily.
The system responded immediately: "The mission has been accepted and the reward has been issued."
A Band-Aid shining with golden light appeared in Wu Hen's hand.
Wu Hen didn't care about anything else. He tore off a Band-Aid and put it on Lin Qiye's shoulder blade.
A magical scene happened. The golden light on the Band-Aid spread rapidly.
The wound on Lin Qiye's shoulder blade healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"Oh shit! This...this is too amazing!" Wu Hen couldn't believe his eyes.
Lin Qiye also felt that his body was recovering rapidly. He took a deep breath and said gratefully: "Wu Hen... Thank you..."
"What are you thanking me for? We are brothers! It's too formal to say such things!" Wu Hen patted Lin Qiye's shoulder and grinned.
He turned his head and looked at the white shadow standing beside him, and said gratefully: "And... thank you..."
The white shadow glanced at him, nodded slightly, then slowly turned around and floated towards the black coffin.
When she was about to enter the coffin, she suddenly stopped, looked back at Wu Hen, and said softly: "Remember... the Forbidden Ruins... are very dangerous..."
After saying that, she floated into the coffin and the coffin lid slowly closed.
With a "bang", the black coffin disappeared into the air, as if it had never appeared.
Everything returned to calm, leaving only a blood mist on the ground, proving that what had just happened was not an illusion.
Wu Hen looked at the empty ground and his heart could not calm down for a long time.
He must improve his strength as soon as possible in order to survive in this cruel world.
"System, what task is next?" Wu Hen asked in his heart.
The system was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Host, we have detected that you have come into contact with the deep secrets of the Forbidden Ruins. You are being rewarded with the special mission 'Explore the Forbidden Ruins'."
"Mission Objective: Go deep into the Forbidden Ruins and find the core secrets of the Forbidden Ruins."
"Task reward: unknown."
Wu Hen took a deep breath.
"Okay! I accept the mission!"
And this is just the beginning...
