Chapter 83: Chapter 64 Little Brother Wu (Dear ones, 4 more updates, ask for votes!)

Four people.

Just moments ago, they were still chasing Wu Xiaode and Xiao Baihong, but now, they had become four corpses, laid out on the ground in front of the room.

Having taken a careful look at their faces, the gunman thought for a while, then said,

"I know who they are."

"Who?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"A Hunting Team that specializes in collecting bounties, so when they saw Wu Xiaode, they immediately wanted to kill him," the gunman explained.

"Someone has put a bounty on my life?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Your opponents are those big shots from the empire, they failed to kill you yesterday, and they have put a bounty of five hundred million in the underground world for your life," the gunman said.

Xiao Baihong whistled.

"You want to earn money?" Wu Xiaode said with displeasure.

"Sorry, but this head of mine is worth 1.5 billion with the Holy Sect," Xiao Baihong said, tilting his chin up.

"What did you do?" Wu Xiaode asked.

Xiao Baihong gave a mysterious smile, saying nothing.

The gunman interjected, "Several red-robed bishops from the Holy Sect had taken many orphans and women for sacrifices, which he found out about, so he went and slaughtered three big cathedrals."

"Anyone who joins our team must be at least an S-rank criminal, Little Wu, you’re still underage, so five hundred million is pretty good," Ying said indifferently.

Wu Xiaode was taken aback.

So the S-rank club... referred to them all being S-rank criminals!

Speaking calmly, the team leader said, "Gunman, once we’re back, make an announcement in the underground world—if anyone touches Little Wu, our entire club will retaliate, wiping out their entire family."

"Of course, it’s not often we get an S-rank martial master on the list—I’ll post the announcement once I’m back," the gunman promised.

"Since the monsters have breached this place, we must leave immediately," the team leader said.

"Yes!"

Everyone said in unison.

...

Xiao Baihong leaped onto a large tree, vigilantly looking around.

Wu Xiaode took a few steps forward, standing at the edge of the mountain path, shielding everyone behind him.

——If something came up the mountain path, it would have to get past him first before it could deal with his teammates.

He looked around and then said, "There’s no path ahead."

The team leader walked up to take a look and saw that ahead was dense jungle with no trace of human passage.

"Xiao Baihong?" she called out.

"Nothing found," Xiao Baihong’s voice came from the treetop.

Wu Xiaode was about to say something when he suddenly closed his mouth.

A semi-transparent figure drifted from afar, silently floating in front of him.

The others couldn’t see it.

Without a doubt, this was a spirit.

The spirit wore a set of military uniform, its expression sad and anxious.

Glancing at the Book of the Dead floating in the air, it immediately said,

"You must be able to see me."

"Yes," Wu Xiaode silently communicated with his thoughts.

"Don’t take the path on your right, there’s a group of particularly powerful monsters there," the soldier spirit advised.

"Why are you here?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"I’m a scout. To distract the monsters and prevent them from discovering a secret transport route hidden in the mountains, I fought and fled from them until I was secretly killed by a monster lurking in the water," the soldier spirit explained.

"I hate it, it wasn’t that powerful to begin with," he said with a gnashing of teeth.

Secretly killed...

Were there insiders even among the monsters now?

"Thank you for telling me this," Wu Xiaode said thoughtfully.

"Please help me get revenge—I’ll take you to that secret transport route, is that okay?" the soldier asked.

The Book of the Dead opened to a blank page, quietly waiting for Wu Xiaode’s decision.

"But why should we take that transport route?" Wu Xiaode asked, puzzled.

"Kill that guy for me, and I’ll tell you everything."

"Deal!"

As those words were spoken, rows of ice-crystal small characters suddenly appeared on the Book of the Dead.

The contract was made.

The soldier spirit was overjoyed and pointed in a direction, "Head this way, I’ll go find a few more buddies."

"There are others?" Wu Xiaode asked, surprised.

"Yes, all killed by that monster," the soldier spirit said, then vanished.

Wu Xiaode turned around to face the team leader, "I spent many years in the mountains as a child. How about I find us a path to take a look?"

"Go ahead, but be careful," the team leader nodded.

As a martial master, Wu Xiaode naturally led the team; now that he volunteered to find a path, she readily agreed.

Wu Xiaode gestured to everyone and led the way to the left side of the mountain woods.

The team kept their formation, following one by one.

Time slowly passed.

Unbeknownst to them, nearly a hundred military spirits had already joined Wu Xiaode’s side.

They marched in great numbers.

"Little Wu, I died by that creek ahead. Be careful—there is a multi-eyed demon lizard lurking beneath those waters," one soldier said with a heavy heart.

"Just one?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"I can confirm his words; we were killed by that multi-eyed demon lizard together," another soldier added.

More soldiers began to speak up.

——It seems there really is a big fellow hidden here!

Wu Xiaode looked at the creek.

Upon close inspection, although the bank had been cleaned up by monsters, there was still a faint smell of blood.

"Team leader," Wu Xiaode said.

"What is it?"

"Something’s off about that creek bank. Can we do something more drastic?"

"Are you sure?"

"Very sure, we mountain people are accurate about these things."

The team leader said nothing further, but took down a snow-white longbow from her back, fitted a red-feathered arrow onto the bowstring, and slowly pulled it taut.

Wu Xiaode noticed that the arrow was etched with tiny, dense characters, seemingly emitting a faint glow. When he looked closely, the light would retract and vanish.

Everyone held their breath.

A breath.

Whoosh—

The arrow flew from the bowstring, transforming into a galloping lion, swiftly passing through the muddy land and plunging deep into the creek.

Boom!

The creek water shot up into the sky.

A multi-eyed lizard about five meters long and more than two meters wide leaped out from the water, its mouth clamping tightly onto the lion.

There really was a monster!

The team leader made a hand gesture and spoke softly, "Return!"

The lion was struggling in the monster’s mouth when it suddenly transformed back into an arrow and ferociously burrowed into the creature’s belly.

It almost pierced through the monster’s stomach, causing it so much pain that it leapt out of the water.

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!

The gunmen opened fire.

The monster was hit and blood splattered all over it, but this only ignited its ferocity as it let out a wild roar and charged towards them.

"Very strong," Xiao Baihong evaluated with a frown.

"All units prepare for battle!" the captain ordered.

Wu Xiaode lightly leaped out to meet the multi-eyed demon lizard head-on.

A group of soldier spirits immediately began to shout with tension:

"Be careful, it can spray Ice Frost!"

"It hits hard when it charges."

"There’s a poison sac hidden in its left claw, I died from a stab from that claw."

"Quick, look! If it shakes its head, that means it’s about to swing its tail."

"Right, its tail is really hard, I was slapped to death on the ground by it."

Wu Xiaode was speechless for a moment.

I appreciate your good intentions, but couldn’t you have said something sooner? I’m about to make my move—

He caught sight of ice frost emerging from the multi-eyed demon lizard’s mouth.

Thinking of spraying Ice Frost?

Dream on!

Wu Xiaode’s body surged with silent Demon Mist, and he disappeared from the demon lizard’s sight.

The multi-eyed demon lizard was momentarily stunned.

Boom—

Suddenly, a Giant Strength came from below it.

Before it knew it, Wu Xiaode was standing right underneath its mouth and he threw a punch upwards.

Iron Wire Fist·Swinging Force!

The multi-eyed demon lizard was sent flying seven or eight meters high.

The punch’s destructive power was limited, but it did manage to send the target flying, a deliberate attack by Wu Xiaode.

"Good opportunity—"

The captain’s eyes lit up, and he pulled out another arrow.

The gunmen hadn’t stopped shooting.

Ying softly chanted, "Flame Butterfly, dance."

Hundreds and thousands of flame butterflies emerged from the Void, swarming towards the airborne multi-eyed demon lizard.

Sun was quickly assembling a cannon.

Everyone became busy.

Only Xiao Baihong stood to one side with resentment, arms crossed, "This kid is stealing the spotlight again..."

He had exhausted his Soul Power and could only rest and observe for now.

The multi-eyed demon lizard couldn’t move in mid-air, its underbelly completely exposed for everyone to attack fiercely.

As it screamed and was about to land, Wu Xiaode powerfully struck it from below again.

Boom—

Still using Swinging Force!

The multi-eyed demon lizard was once again sent flying into the air.

Another barrage of concentrated fire followed.

This time, Wu Xiaode used a rolling force attack to send the demon lizard flying out, rolling over seven or eight meters before collapsing motionless by the stream.

Ya excitedly flew out, circling the demon lizard once.

"Caw, a bountiful harvest, Little Wu,"

Ya said happily.

Since Ya had already started absorbing Soul Power, it meant one thing.

The demon lizard was dead.

—However, it seemed like it was already dead from everyone else’s attacks before his final hit.

The group of soldier spirits cried tears of joy.

"As per our agreement, I will tell you that matter," said the first soldier spirit.

"Go ahead," Wu Xiaode said.

"The demons have completely overrun this area. In thirty minutes, nuclear bombs will cleanse these mountains. You can only escape through that secret passage to reach our base," the soldier spirit said.

Damn it!

Why is it always nuclear bombs!

Wu Xiaode’s heart suddenly tightened, and he immediately asked, "Will we be checked if we go to the base?"

"Everywhere is losing contact now. As long as you have identification, it should be no problem," the soldier spirit said.

Identification?

The captain had already prepared it!

So what are we waiting for? Let’s go!

Wu Xiaode was about to step forward when he saw a soldier spirit run out, soon pulling over a dozen soldier spirits from the other side of the stream.

"Brother Wu, help us take revenge."

"Yes, if it were a large force of demons, we wouldn’t bother you, but this time it’s a damned multi-legged demon worm."

"It’s really not dangerous, you have so many people."

"We know where it’s hiding."

"Yeah, help us out, Brother Wu," the soldier spirits pleaded earnestly.

Wu Xiaode: "Guys, there’s going to be a nuclear bomb soon!"

"Brother Wu, we won’t let you work for nothing. If you help us kill that monster, we’ll give you the military truck over there. You can quickly reach the base and head to the underground shelter."

"...Okay!" Wu Xiaode decided on the spot.

At that moment, the captain had already checked the multi-eyed demon lizard’s corpse and returned with a smile, "Wu, those punches earlier were very clean."

"Yeah, not only did you withstand the monster, but you also made it easier for us to attack it," praised the gunman.

Sun came over carrying a cannon, complaining, "You all killed it too quickly, Wu. Next time wait for me to take a shot first."

Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered that they had to kill more monsters to be able to return.

—So what more is there to say?

Avoiding a major force of demons and killing a few hidden lesser demons waiting to ambush, poses no problem at all.

And then hurry to the base in the truck!

Having thought this through, he immediately said to the spirits, "Lead the way!"

"Yes, Brother Wu!" the soldier spirits responded in unison.

With Wu Xiaode leading and the rest following, the entire team moved on.

Shortly after,

A group of soldier spirits suddenly pointed in a direction, shouting out loud:

"Brother Wu, go get it!"

Wu Xiaode shifted his gaze, following the direction they were pointing toward.
