Hundreds of meters away, Li Yan and the others had already stopped, all staring blankly as Yi Shuihan slaughtered the beastmen. They were all from a peaceful world, and it was rare for them to even see a dead person. They had never seen such a scene before, and they were so shocked that they couldn't even speak.
Wu Qingxuan was struggling to hold on. At this moment, she had no energy left to think about anything else. If she were to be distracted even slightly, death would be the only outcome. Under the threat of death, her mind was more focused than ever before, and her full potential was unleashed. She displayed strength that was several times stronger than usual. However, she had too many opponents, and they were far too powerful.
Wu Qingxuan punched a minotaur, seriously injuring him. However, a spear suddenly emerged from the minotaur's abdomen. Wu Qingxuan had never expected these orcs to be so ferocious, disregarding even the life and death of their companions. By the time she noticed, it was already too late. Although she was injured by the spear and not completely lost her ability to fight, her strength was greatly reduced.
Several orcs at the Black Iron 6-star level around Wu Qingxuan's hands turned bloodthirsty red with their eyes and launched a frenzied attack on her, giving her no chance to breathe.
With a spinning kick, Wu Qingxuan swept away a nearby orc, and with another punch, she forced back a cat-man who was trying to ambush her. Gasping for breath, she staggered and was struck by a huge hammer, crashing to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
A whooshing sound rang out, and Wu Qingxuan's vision went black. The enormous hammer grew larger and larger in her eyes. If this hammer were to strike her, Wu Qingxuan's head would probably shatter like a watermelon.
However, the hammer ultimately failed to fall.
"Is it okay!"
The moment Wu Qingxuan saw Yi Shuihan appear beside her, she felt an urge to cry, and in fact, she did cry. Although she was full of a sense of justice and willing to sacrifice for others, when it came to death, she couldn't accept such a way of dying. In that instant, she regretted it; she could have run away.
If Wu Qingxuan were to encounter the same situation again, she might make a different choice. Who knows?
Yi Shuihan's arrival did not stop the orcs from attacking, even though nearly a hundred orcs had already died at his hands.
"Kill this human. Whoever kills him will be the deputy commander."
The tiger-man with the strength of an 8th-level Black Iron warrior shouted loudly, and his attack, which had slowed down somewhat, became frenzied again.
The orc army is divided into squads of ten men each, with one captain; battalions of one hundred men each, with one battalion commander; and regiments of one thousand men each, with one commander and two deputy commanders. The tiger-man with the Black Iron 8-star rank is one of the commanders.
With the continuous killing, Yi Shuihan's task list also changed accordingly. The number of ordinary orc soldiers became (103/10), and the number of orc squad leaders became (9/1). This can be considered as exceeding the task requirements. However, since the completion status still shows as incomplete, Yi Shuihan guesses that it is because he has not yet joined the human army. As long as he joins the human army, his main task should be completed instantly.
Yi Shuihan fought against a thousand men single-handedly, while holding Ya Duo'er in one arm. Even so, he still managed to repel the thousand-man army, widening the gap between the beastmen's army and the newcomers.
"I didn't know he was so amazing."
As Wu Qingxuan watched Yi Shuihan's dashing figure as he killed the enemy, her heart was filled with complex emotions.
"He's too strong. I didn't expect him to be so fierce. He looks so gentle and weak. I thought he was just a tough guy. I even tried to provoke him before. Luckily, he didn't bother with me."
Tong Yan patted his engorged breasts, looking terrified.
"He won't hold a grudge later, will he? I... I'm not afraid of him, not afraid. Gun, yes, I have a gun."
Lin Hao was so terrified when he saw Yi Shuihan, who killed without blinking an eye. In the end, he could only grip the gun tightly and try to calm himself down.
"So this is what Kim's real thighs look like! They're so thick, incredibly thick."
"If we had this big shot's help, completing the mission would have been a piece of cake. We're all newcomers, how come there's such a big difference? If the newcomers are this strong, how strong must the veterans be? Luckily, I didn't make a stupid mistake back then."
Li Yan regretted not focusing on Wu Qingxuan earlier. Just because Yi Shuihan wouldn't leave him, he didn't try to please her. If he had known Yi Shuihan was so strong, he would have clung to her even if it meant getting beaten up.
"These orcs are really brave! Even though a third of them are dead, they still haven't broken up."
While killing the orcs, Yi Shuihan also developed a certain admiration for them. Generally speaking, in a battle between two armies, if one side suffers 3% casualties, it will be defeated. This is still a normal battle. For someone like Yi Shuihan to slaughter a third of the enemy's troops has an even more terrifying effect. Under such circumstances, the morale of the orcs has not dropped much, and they are still charging wildly. They are obviously much more terrifying than ordinary armies.
However, no matter how fearless the beastmen were, they could only do useless work due to the absolute difference in strength. Up to now, Yi Shuihan had not even gotten a drop of blood on him, truly passing through a field of flowers without a single petal touching him.
"It seems these orcs won't stop until their leader is killed. In that case..."
A golden light flashed in his eyes, and Yi Shuihan accelerated instantly. The beastmen in the straight line were thrown about as if hit by a train. In the blink of an eye, Yi Shuihan arrived in front of the tiger-man.
"Give me death."
With a swift grab, he seized the tiger-man's throat and, under the tiger-man's horrified gaze, squeezed it. The tiger-man didn't even have a chance to fight back before dying a miserable death, his eyes wide open, unable to close them in peace!
This move was no less ruthless than taking the enemy general's head from the midst of a massive army. With their commander dead, the orc legion finally collapsed, crying out in alarm at the demons as they began to flee.
Yi Shuihan did not continue to pursue the orcs, mainly because he was too lazy to kill them, and let them leave.
Seeing the orcs leave, the newcomers slowly walked over, their eyes filled with awe as they looked at Yi Shuihan.
Chapter 1078, Healing
Li Yan originally wanted to say some nice things to build a good relationship with Yi Shuihan and then gradually curry favor with him, but when his eyes met Yi Shuihan's, his mind went completely blank and he forgot all the words he was about to say.
What kind of look was that! Indifferent, ruthless, regarding all things in the world as ants? Li Yan felt as if his little thoughts had been completely seen through, and he was surrounded by a chill that came from the depths of his soul. Endless terror arose in his heart. Even when he was chased by the orcs before, he was not this afraid.
He is far more terrifying than the orcs. It is better to face the orc army than to oppose him, or you will discover something far more terrifying than death.
With just a glance, Li Yan and Yi Shuihan abandoned any attempt to get close to each other. Seeing Wu Qingxuan, who was still injured, he thought for a moment and walked over. Although Wu Qingxuan was slightly weaker than Yi Shuihan, she was also easier to deal with.
"Wow! Brother Taiyi is so amazing, he chased away all the beastmen."
Ador exclaimed in surprise. Only now had she recovered from Yi Shuihan's previous rampage. Sitting in the best viewing seat, Ador was arguably the most deeply shocked. Yi Shuihan's heroic figure, who single-handedly swept across the battlefield and crushed the orcs, was firmly etched in her mind.
Yaduo'er now idolizes Yi Shuihan to the extreme, to the point of being a brainless fan. It is estimated that Yi Shuihan is the strongest existence in her heart, and no one else can beat him, not even those veterans.
"How was it? Was this game fun? If you enjoyed it, I'll take you to play again next time. There weren't enough orcs this time, it wasn't enough fun. I only just started to put in the effort and they were already done for."
Yi Shuihan smiled and said to Ya Duo'er.
"This was so much fun! I want to play it again next time."
Ador said excitedly.
The conversation between the older and younger man left the others completely bewildered. They had been terrified of the orcs they had seen before, fearing they would be caught. However, in Yi Shuihan's eyes, these orcs were merely game props, and they weren't even having a good time. There were about a thousand orcs, and each one of them was stronger than these newcomers. They might not even be able to defeat them in a one-on-one fight. Yet, Yi Shuihan slaughtered them like chickens, leaving them utterly defeated.
We're both newcomers, so why is there such a huge difference? It's incredibly difficult for us to complete the task, but for them, it's like they're on vacation, completing the task is as easy as eating and drinking.
Faced with such blatantly unfair treatment, they couldn't muster even the slightest jealousy or anger. The gap between the two sides was simply too vast; they couldn't even muster the emotion of jealousy.
How is your injury?
Yi Shuihan walked up to Wu Qingxuan and asked.
"No problem, it's not a serious injury. As long as I don't fight at full strength, it won't affect anything."
Wu Qingxuan said this with a very carefree attitude.
The wound from the spear had been bandaged up with a piece of clothing she had casually torn off, and the bandage was quite neat, showing that it wasn't just a haphazard treatment.
"Do you need my help? I'm very confident in my healing abilities."
"Okay!"
Wu Qingxuan readily agreed to Yi Shuihan's offer of help, and without any hesitation, she pulled up her clothes, revealing her snow-white skin on her abdomen.
"Should I show you my wound?"
This expression, which seemed to say "I'll do whatever you ask," made Yi Shuihan feel that Wu Qingxuan trusted him too much. He really did look like such a virtuous gentleman.
"No, that's fine."
Yi Shuihan placed his hand about 3cm above Wu Qingxuan's wound.
"It might be a little itchy, just bear with it."
A beam of emerald light emanated from Yi Shuihan's palm, and as if in resonance, emerald green fluorescence appeared on Wu Qingxuan's wound.
Wu Qingxuan felt a tingling, numbing heat coursing through her wound, which then began to heal rapidly. Although it was not visible through the bandage, it was still her own body. As a martial artist, Wu Qingxuan had far greater control over her body than ordinary people, so she could easily assess her condition.
Amidst the astonished gazes of those around her, a few minutes later, Wu Qingxuan ripped off the bandage, revealing her fair skin underneath, without a trace of injury. It was impossible to tell that she had been injured before. If it weren't for the bloodstains on the clothes used for the bandage, people would probably have thought that Wu Qingxuan was putting on a show.
"He's incredibly strong, good-looking, and can even heal wounds. If only he had a better personality, he'd be the perfect man!"
Tong Yan looked at Yi Shuihan with a strange gaze. For the first time, she, who had never been interested in men, showed a little interest in a strange man.
"If only I were that amazing, Xinran would definitely like a man like that."
Lin Hao looked at Yi Shuihan with envy, fantasizing that he could become a man as dashing as Yi Shuihan.
"Alright, let's get out of here first. Those orcs might come back. I don't care, but what about you..."
These newcomers now follow Yi Shuihan's lead, feeling safe with him, so they naturally won't oppose him. Besides, they really don't want to stay here any longer.
The group set off again. Yi Shuihan adopted a "keep away" expression, and the other newcomers did not bother him and Ya Duo'er. The college students also completely ignored Ya Duo'er's affairs.
The newlyweds all surrounded Wu Qingxuan, looking like obedient children. Even the young couples were the same, all calling her "Sister Wu."
After walking for about two hours, we finally saw a medieval western city. However, the city gates were tightly closed, and there were still many bloodstains on the city walls, indicating that a great battle had taken place here not long ago.
The two ancient characters "Lin Yuan" from another world are engraved on the city gate, representing the name of this city. These two characters look very majestic, and upon closer inspection, one can feel as if facing an iron-blooded army.
"The person who wrote these two characters is no ordinary person! There is a profound and lingering artistic conception in them. If an ordinary person had ulterior motives, it would be easy for them to give themselves away under these two characters."
With a sigh, Yi Shuihan took the lead and walked towards the city gate. He wanted to enter the city; how could he join the army if he didn't?
Chapter 1079, Entering the City
Yi Shuihan walked in front, and the newlyweds hesitated for a moment, but eventually followed slowly behind. However, they all looked nervously in the direction of the city wall. For some reason, the city wall always gave them an extremely dangerous feeling. The closer they got, the stronger the sense of danger became, as if they were approaching a bloodthirsty monster.
When Yi Shuihan was about 50 meters away from the city wall, dozens of soldiers in armor suddenly appeared on the previously deserted wall. They raised their bows and arrows, aimed at Yi Shuihan, and fired a volley of arrows without saying a word.
"what!"
The newlyweds screamed in fright and stood frozen in place.
Yi Shuihan also stopped in his tracks. All the arrows were embedded in the ground in front of him, lined up in a row, blocking his path.
It's obvious that these people were shooting at us on purpose, probably to warn Yi Shuihan not to go any further. If Yi Shuihan and his group ignored the warning and continued to advance, the next shot wouldn't hit the ground, but them themselves.
"How to do?"
Even Wu Qingxuan lost her composure at this moment, looking at Yi Shuihan with pleading eyes.
"Maybe...maybe we should leave here! Otherwise they really will kill us."
Lin Hao said, trembling. As a modern college student, his mental fortitude was not strong enough. After what had just happened, it was already a miracle that he hadn't urinated.
Tong Yan and Xia Xinran, who are also college students like Lin Hao, were pale and weak all over. Tong Yan, who looks very tough, needed Xia Xinran to support her so she could stand up.
In the young couple, the wife clung tightly to her husband, not daring to peek out, her body trembling constantly, while the husband pretended to be calm, though he wasn't much better off.
“We can’t leave. If we don’t enter the city, we can’t join the human army and we won’t be able to complete the main quest. If we don’t complete the main quest, we will be wiped out.”
Wu Qingxuan said with a solemn expression.
After Wu Qingxuan reminded them, everyone remembered this and immediately shut their mouths, no longer mentioning leaving, and could only place their hopes on Yi Shuihan.
"Damn the Main God Space! They actually issued such a difficult mission. If we don't enter the city, we won't even be able to complete the prerequisites for the mission, and we'll surely die!"
Li Yan cursed inwardly, gaining a clearer understanding of the terror of the Main God Space.
"We've come to join the army to fight the enemy, please let us in."
Yi Shuihan shouted loudly, directly stating his purpose.
These words did have some effect, after all, the current situation is very special, and if Yi Shuihan and the others really came to join the army, it would be an added boost to their efforts.
Do you know Lord Polik?
Not long after, a soldier who looked like a squad leader shouted at Yi Shuihan.
"I know him, he's our captain."
Yi Shuihan realized that Polik must have infiltrated their ranks. Although he didn't know how they had done it in such a short time, it didn't stop Yi Shuihan from using Polik's name.
"Do you have proof?"
The call came again from above.
Proof? I have none...
"Yes, this is the proof."
Yi Shuihan raised his right hand, revealing his wrist, where there was a very complex pattern. This was the mark that the Main God Space imprinted on the reincarnator. Generally speaking, only when the reincarnator actively reveals it can others see it.
At such a distance, an ordinary person would definitely not be able to see this mark. However, this is not an ordinary world. In a fantasy world, anything is possible. Soon, Yi Shuihan noticed a gaze watching the mark.
Following the gaze, Yi Shuihan saw a pair of eyes that were different from those of a normal person, like those of an eagle.
"Something like Eagle Eye?"
Thinking this, Yi Shuihan rolled up her sleeves a little to make the mark easier to observe.
A moment later, it seemed that the task was completed. The soldiers on the city wall put down their bows and arrows and then lowered a basket, gesturing for Yi Shuihan and the others to go up.
The basket wasn't very big; it could only hold a maximum of four people at a time. Yi Shuihan and the others had to go up in two groups.
Nothing unexpected happened after that, and everyone successfully climbed onto the city wall using the gondolas.
The moment they stepped onto the city wall, a notification sounded in the main god space, reminding everyone that they had arrived in Lin Yuan City and that they must join the Lin Yuan City military within 3 days, otherwise the mission would be considered a failure.
This prompt clearly caught the newcomers off guard, and their mood became somewhat heavy.
"There was no time limit at first, but now there is. It seems that the God Space has many hidden rules! I wonder if Xue Feng has also come to Lin Yuan City, and what his current situation is."
Yi Shuihan and the others were taken to a place in the city that resembled a military camp, where they were examined. Clearly, they had not yet gained complete trust.
After undergoing some complex tests, the soldiers monitoring Yi Shuihan and his group left, thus confirming their identities.
