Chapter 159: Chapter 158: Don’t Forget Your Duty (Please Subscribe, Monthly Tickets, and Collections)

According to the medical [Player] from Yanyun’s branch, [Northern Boss], Yang Dong’s condition was: "Sitting up suddenly from a dying illness!"

The sudden movement aggravated the injuries on his body, and he quickly lay back down. Struggling, he yelled, "Quick! Call the Curse Class, I’ve been cursed by the Sea Clan. Damn, a seven consecutive curse! Also, keep the water cup away from me! I’m afraid it’ll drown me! I also have a curse that makes me choke on water."

[Northern Boss] and the other medical personnel were dumbfounded. Weren’t you just lying on the hospital bed? How did you get cursed by the Sea Clan? Sea Clan... is it a Spirit Monster Species or a Fantasy Species?

Not to mention, with Yang Dong’s half-crippled state, how did he manage to provoke the Sea Clan?

"Did you complete a [Task] while you were unconscious? Did you seduce their princess? Or did you rob their treasury?" The Curse Class quickly arrived, as their [Skills] were more inclined towards curses.

One of them had slightly pointed ears and laughed after looking at Yang Dong, "Sea Clan curse? You’re talking about those incredibly resource-consuming, cause-and-effect curses that can be cast as long as the caster knows the target’s name and some information about them! They only have seven tribes, so you seduced all seven in one go? In fact, you might have seduced them, but why did you tell them your name? This kind of curse would only take effect if the caster knows your name and part of your information."

"I didn’t! I don’t know anything!" Yang Dong’s body still had wounds from his battle with Fire Man, and his previous movement had made him break out in a cold sweat, "How dare I take on any tasks in this condition? And seducing a girl... do I have the strength now?"

The man laughed, "If it were me, I could!"

Then, he carefully examined Yang Dong’s injuries, his green eyes scanning as if he could see the curse itself.

He shook his head slightly and said, "Too much trouble. The other party must have been driven to desperation. This level of curse can’t be removed by a half-effort elf like me that uses a [Sequence Gene]. You should contact Xiao Ye to reach out to her people for help. And don’t go near the sea in the meantime... sea monsters might actually come! Alright, there’s a situation in Jiulong City, I’ll follow the main team. You focus on healing."

Yang Dong was dumbfounded. What a pot falling from the sky while sleeping on a bed! Which bastard used his name to provoke the Sea Clan?

...

On the other hand, Li Changhe, whom Yang Dong referred to as the bastard, released his grip.

The black fog surged for a moment, and the red eyes within stared at Li Changhe, emitting angry roars from their big mouths.

The effect of the [Ksitigarbha Ten Rounds Sutra] ended, and Li Changhe let go of his grip again, leaving the Tingdaros Hound unimpeded.

Simultaneously, Li Changhe’s sudden attribute reduction made him nearly lose his balance. His crimson eyes gradually returned to normal, but he was completely exhausted.

Xiao Nan stood with her sword in front of Li Changhe, while He Feng and Wang Er aimed their guns at the hound.

Now, both sides were enemies! If the Tingdaros Hound insisted on attacking Li Changhe, the three would use their strongest [Skills] to retaliate.

Moreover, the figures of the [Players] who had originally guarded the temple could already be seen in the distance. If the hound wanted to fight, the humans wouldn’t mind ganging up on it, twenty against one.

Fortunately, the hound only roared for a few moments before retreating back into the black fog.

For it, this hunt had been too costly. Even the Tingdaros Hound couldn’t withstand it.

These humans were too cunning, using their bodies to block [Demon God Bal’s] attack multiple times. The last hit almost left them unconscious.

Besides, this human’s companion wasn’t simple either. There was a [Demon Baal] on their side, damn it, they’d spare them for now!

Seeing the hound gradually disappearing into the black fog, Li Changhe, sitting on the ground, coughed twice and said, "Dog Brother, come visit again. Next time I’ll treat you to some Fantasy Species."

The black fog surged, dozens of red eyes looked at Li Changhe again, hesitated for a moment, and finally disappeared into the black fog. The black fog then dissipated as well.

[Tingdaros Hound’s Curse: The Tingdaros Hound has temporarily left, but it claims that it will bite you to death sooner or later!]

Li Changhe looked at the [Negative Status] and laughed, then picked up the [Shell Leaf Sutra Box].

"Dog Brother, see you next time. I’ll have Riding EX!"

After saying that, he coughed up blood.

"Can’t your mouth shut up for a while?" He Feng was shocked, "If it swallowed you in one bite, I wouldn’t have had time to save you!"

"This guy will die because of his mouth, sooner or later!" Wang Er gave his evaluation.

"If it dares to take action, then today let’s test whether the Tingdaros Hound is really immortal." Xiao Nan’s words were firm and resolute.

If the hound still dared to attack, Xiao Nan would use Bain’s authority even if it exhausted all her energy.

After removing the Demon Armor, she sat next to Li Changhe and began examining his injuries.

One fractured bone, five severe wounds, and many bite marks. Xiao Nan’s face turned pale at the sight.

Li Changhe waved his hand to signal her not to worry.

"Don’t worry, the injuries are not too serious this time. I’ll recover soon." Li Changhe whispered, "Zhu Hou sacrificed himself."

Xiao Nan silently nodded, as she had already seen Zhu Hou’s [Friends] turn gray from her [Friends] list.

Li Changhe used some medicine, feeling that his physical strength and energy had somewhat recovered.

Struggling to stand up, he whispered, "I really owe [Great Wall] my life this time. I need to find a chance to repay them."

"Enough, don’t forget your identity as a ’Hidden Pile’." Wang Er frowned, looking at the people rushing from a distance: "If you want to leave, now is the time. They don’t know your identity. A ’Hidden Pile’ must behave like one."

"Of course..." Li Changhe looked towards the lake.

Luo Kai had already brought Chen Yan and Zhu Hou out of the lake.

Similarly, Yun Ting emerged from the lake, waving her hair with Li Changhe’s fallen equipment tied to it.

Li Changhe was not sure what changes Yun Ting had undergone after entering the Dragon Transformation Pool.

But from her daring to appear in broad daylight as a Mysterious Species, Li Changhe was certain that she had gained a lot of benefits.

Receiving the equipment from Yun Ting’s hair, she turned into a white mist and dissipated on the ink jade.

"Huh? Brother Ting, are you still considered a Mysterious Species?" He Feng muttered.

Not a single piece of equipment was intact. Mountain Pattern Armor was bitten like a twist, and there was a fist print on Tang Hengdao. The machete was simply bent, and the lead ball... apart from losing a few links, there was nothing different. Finally, the lead ball returned to its original state.

Li Changhe sighed, this time the loss of equipment and death of teammates, and even himself being bitten to pieces once, it was really hard...

Looking at Zhu Hou’s dead body carried by Luo Kai, Li Changhe was silent for a moment.

He felt that he had spoken too harshly when lecturing Zhu Hou before, which made him feel sad.

"Hold back your tears!" said Chen Yan, who was rescued from the lake by Luo Kai. With one leg severed, she killed a Mermaid [Player], which made her injuries even more severe.

Upon seeing Li Changhe, she growled, "Don’t forget your duty, and don’t forget the duty of the [Great Wall]!"

Luo Kai also nodded faintly.

In their eyes, Li Changhe was still Yang Dong’s ’Hidden Pile’ arranged in [General Mountain].

Luo Kai whispered, "Don’t arouse suspicion from the people of [General Mountain]. Go! If there’s any problem, contact Xiao Nan or us. You’re not alone. Zhu Hou sacrificed himself for mankind, not for you! Remember that!"

Li Changhe didn’t want to explain either, so he raised his hand slightly towards Zhu Hou’s body as if to say goodbye.

He turned to face the approaching [Players], and after walking a few steps, he [Summoned Military Horse].

Riding the horse, Li Changhe passed through the [Players] and shouted, "[General Mountain], follow me. Leave the rest to [Great Wall]."

The members of [General Mountain] in the team hesitated for a moment, then one by one separated from the crowd and followed him using their own methods.

[Great Wall Players] did not stop them, only watching their figures disappear into the jungle.
