Chapter 575: Chapter 250: He’s Back

After some time, Li Changhe found a wind-sheltered spot in the woods.

"Such a mistake." Li Changhe tapped his own face, feeling it stiff and unyielding like a stone wall.

It wasn’t that his face was frozen, but rather the [Mimicry Clay]covering it.

When not speaking, being expressionless was fine.

But as soon as he spoke or made a facial expression, his jaw and facial muscles would move, causing the clay to crack or fall off.

It made his entire face seem like it was about to shatter, quite horrifying.

He carefully dealt with the clay on his face.

"From now on, I can only rely on makeup skills to disguise myself." Li Changhe thought. He couldn’t wear a mask when interacting with people from the Great Tang.

Luckily, during the previous Rain Village mission, he received a reward that increased his [Skill]to B.

Li Changhe spent a few days learning makeup skills from Bai Luohe for this purpose.

A [Skill: Makeup E]appears in the panel.

Of course, being a beginner, it wasn’t very good-looking.

Little Black was startled. In Bai Luohe’s words, he couldn’t enter a mission with this makeup look in the future.

Otherwise, other players would mistake Li Changhe as an Abnormality, and scream at him to be eliminated.

However, after upgrading it to B, it could serve its purpose of disguise.

After all, it was Asian sorcery, so temporarily deceiving people’s eyes wasn’t a problem.

"All that’s left is the identity issue." Li Changhe had decided to sneak into Yuezhou City using this unfortunate man’s identity.

As for joining the Auxiliary Army, he might even learn more about the current situation faced by the Great Tang from the troops.

With a flash of spacial fluctuation in his hand, Li Changhe took out the [Insight Mirror]and used it on the unfortunate man’s corpse.

A few seconds later, blood-red characters appeared on the mirror’s surface.

’Target is deceased’

’Cause of death: Frozen’

’Reason for physical damage: Chainsaw Axe’

’Name: Yang Dong’

’Strength: 7’

’Agility: 6’

’Physique: 7’

’Energy: 5’

"Ah...this..." Li Changhe and Yun Ting fell silent.

"This is the malice of Evolution Game!" Li Changhe indignantly said, "How can they persecute Brother Dong like this? I can’t stand it! Evolution Game, come out here!"

"Are you still going to use it?" Yun Ting glanced at him.

"I have no choice." Li Changhe sighed, "Brother Dong, it really wasn’t intentional this time."

Over ten kilometers away, dressed in thick clothing, Yang Dong headed towards a distant village.

He was teleported to a main road with quite a few people, which allowed him to quickly confirm his location.

He would first stay overnight in the nearest village, learn about the situation in the Great Tang, and then consider how to join his teammates.

So, he walked in the deep snow, walking and walking.

Suddenly, he received a message from [Uncle Eight-direction].

"Brother Dong, I’ll treat you to a meal next time."

"What’s this guy doing?" Yang Dong was stunned. They had just entered Great Tang, what meal was he talking about?

He then said happily, "Alright, be it in Great Tang or reality, I’ll have our brothers join us."

Signaling that he would make sure to treat him well.

"No problem, it’s arranged!" The reply from Uncle Eight-direction was exceptionally generous.

If the people familiar with Li Changhe, like Box, and Old Zhao, saw how suddenly generous Old Li became.

They would probably understand, this bastard had a guilty conscience!

But Yang Dong didn’t know that now, he thought Li Changhe was apologizing for the previous incident.

However, looking at it from another angle, it was also an apology... A future apology.

...

On the other side, Li Changhe buried Yang Dong’s corpse from the Great Tang in a wind-sheltered spot.

He then put on the cotton clothes from the leather box, and after the makeup adjustment, his face somewhat resembled the deceased.

Now, he had to interact with outsiders using Yang Dong’s identity.

The Insight Mirror analyzed the cause of the other party’s death and injuries.

The wound on his thigh was caused by a chainsaw axe!

Recalling the mech warriors in the preparation space, they were equipped with strangely shaped crossbow guns and chainsaw axes.

Could the culprit be a mechanized soldier?

Quite strange indeed.

A mechanized soldier attacking the Great Tang Auxiliary Army?

Li Changhe pondered, but a sudden thought crossed his mind.

The alert Black Hawk in the sky spotted a faint light in the distance.

That should be the only light source in this desolate wilderness.

Li Changhe initially thought it was a village settled in the wilderness, but as the Black Hawk approached, he saw a fierce battle taking place.

The mingling of iron and fire was particularly striking in the night.

The collision of chainsaw axes produced dazzling sparks.

The clash of steel fists shook the accumulated snow off the nearby trees.

Violent blasts of steam from their backsides melted the surrounding snow.

It turned out to be two mechanized soldier squads battling each other!

One side, however, had fewer mechanized soldiers.

Only two, facing an enemy siege of seven.

Nearby, there were ordinary people not wearing steam armor trying to help the besieged mechanized soldiers.

Some even managed to beat a mechanized soldier with their bare hands. It was currently unclear if any other players were involved.

But apart from that, most of them wielded swords and crossbow bolts that could hardly inflict any damage on the enemy.

Even though their overall numbers were far greater than the enemy’s.

The opposition comprised all mechanized soldiers, so numbers alone couldn’t compensate for their absolute power.

Whenever the enemy swung their weapons, someone would be slashed in half.

No matter if their targets were men, women, old, or young. All would end up as souls under the chainsaws.

Defeat was certain, and without external intervention, they’d soon be wiped out.

At this point, Li Changhe understood why Yang Dong, a member of the Great Tang Auxiliary Army, had died in the wilderness.

He might have been a member of a squad and, after encountering enemies, his team was scattered or annihilated. To escape, he ventured into the desolate wild, eventually freezing to death, which is why his belongings did not include a map.

Like the players, the Great Tang faced not only the so-called malicious chaos but also significant internal problems.

Who are these people... rebels or something?

Too bad the information was still too scarce.

"..." Li Changhe was silent, then exhaled faintly.

The next second, arcs of electricity erupted from his body, activating the Breath of Thunder!

"I wonder how many shots from the Hundred-Headed Shooter these steam-armored soldiers can take!"

He was going to intervene in the battlefield now.

While saving the squad, he might even be able to infiltrate their ranks.

What Li Changhe didn’t know was that as his killing intent manifested,

his Soldier Karma underwent a brief fluctuation.

The duration was very short, less than one-tenth of a second.

Even those like Mr. All-known, who could observe extraordinary cause and effect with the naked eye, would probably find it hard to notice.

Yet, it was like a sharp sword, soaring through the snowstorm, piercing the clouds.

In the Great Tang’s capital, Changan, within the Daming Palace,

A piercing bell rang out, as if urging something, or perhaps warning of the return of an unknown entity.

All the civil and military officials discussing the Great Tang’s situation late into the night fell silent.

Only on the supreme throne did someone chuckle.

"An unfamiliar second sequence? My beloved courtiers, which general do you think has returned to the Great Tang’s territory?"

No one responded.

Thus, the chuckle faded into indifference.

"Find him, kill him!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At the same time, in a dark, lightless underground palace,

Several pairs of green eyes twinkled in the darkness. Their towering bodies trembled, as if waking from a long slumber.

However, they ultimately returned to the darkness.

A deep and ancient sigh echoed from the depths of the underground palace.

"He’s back; bring him here."

"Yes!"
