God-Level All-rounder Expert-Chapter 704 - 774: The Fierce Battle Approaches

The enemy is not human!

The multitude of assassins were baffled by this statement, and according to their instincts, most took Fang Yi’s words as an exaggeration meant to describe the formidable strength of their adversaries.

Nevertheless, there were still some who found this utterly incomprehensible, so they stepped forward and asked, "Alliance Hierarch, what do you mean by saying the enemy is not human?"

Fang Yi pondered for a moment before providing an answer, "The enemy is not of the human race." He felt that this was a very clear explanation.

The many assassins below all fell silent as one; if it had been another time, they would have thought Fang Yi was making a joke to ease the tension, but the grave expression with which he had delivered these words eliminated any hint of jest, compelling them to take the matter seriously.

Enemies not of the human race... They struggled to comprehend this for a while but vaguely understood that this time, their foe was no simple matter.

A Gold-level assassin stepped forward and asked, "Alliance Hierarch, if they are not human, could they be monsters?"

This assassin’s question actually reflected the thoughts of many, all of whom were looking at Fang Yi, uncertain of how he would respond.

Fang Yi indeed nodded and said, "Yes, they are monsters."

Whoa!

The crowd burst into an uproar of discussions, and Fang Yi did not stop them from talking.

In fact, no amount of talking would be useful at that moment; only a real encounter and witnessing these creatures would have an impact, and Fang Yi’s decision to speak in such terms was also because he had some doubts himself.

Fang Yi could not guarantee whether Su Ling, who had intervened in the Martial Arts Conference, would bring those monsters or not.

But better safe than sorry, Fang Yi figured it was better to give these assassins a heads-up in advance.

The crowd gradually calmed down, and Fang Yi observed their expressions—some were filled with uncertainty, obviously hesitating; some were skeptical, clenching their fists eager for a glimpse; while others showed a desire to retreat and leave.

Fang Yi cleared his throat and then spoke slowly and clearly, "Gentlemen, hear me out a bit more, how about it?"

The crowd was silent.

"I’ve said it before: those who wish to leave may leave and those who wish to stay may stay. I, Abandoned Dragon, will harbor no resentment for your choice. If anyone thinks I, Abandoned Dragon, am narrow-minded, they would be greatly mistaken."

Fang Yi smiled, paused for a moment, and then continued, "Moreover, my asking for your involvement is not for you to labor for me in vain. ’Establishing meritorious deeds,’ I trust you all understand the meaning of these four characters. I, Abandoned Dragon, always reward and punish clearly; my word is as good as gold."

Still silence.

The entire scene was calm, no one made a move, which Fang Yi had anticipated, as this was his first time leading these assassins on a mission, and aside from the Dragon Soul members, no one would be the first to back him.

Fang Yi was unruffled and quietly waited. After a while, a man stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Alliance Hierarch, I’d like to hear about the rewards and punishments."

Fang Yi smiled faintly and responded, "Gentlemen, please listen carefully..."

...

A pure white helicopter slowly descended upon a solitary peak.

At that moment, the solitary peak swarmed with densely packed entities, most of them humanoid, but there were also crawling and flying creatures. They gathered together, not in discord like animals but in remarkable harmony.

They exhibited an army-like order. As they saw the helicopter gently touch down, they spontaneously and tacitly remained quiet, with not a sound to be heard.

The helicopter’s door opened, and the demonic Su Ling stepped out, followed by a roar that echoed through the mountains and forests!

The helicopter’s blades slowly came to a halt, and as Su Ling stood by the door, he saw a huge creature step out from the crowd of monsters. Under the sunlight, this gigantic beast over two meters tall quickly approached Su Ling.

"Argh~~~~" It let out a wolf’s howl towards Su Ling.

Su Ling frowned, slightly annoyed. In the next moment, under the werewolf’s fearsome, snarling gaze, Su Ling stepped forward and extended his pale hand, and the werewolf slowly knelt on the ground. Su Ling abruptly slapped it across the face.

"You filthy mutt, how many times do I have to tell you not to shout at me like that? Otherwise, be careful, or I’ll send you back to the lab to enjoy the pleasure of being electrocuted on the dissecting table again," Su Ling said indifferently.

The werewolf gave a whimpering sound and lowered its head.

"What’s the situation with the target?" Su Ling asked, straightening out his wrinkled clothes.

"Reporting to the master, there are about a hundred people gathered at the foot of a mountain, seemingly discussing tactics," the werewolf replied respectfully.

"What about Zhou Hao?"

"Zhou Hao has already been killed by the target."

Su Ling stroked his chin, showing no surprise, and chuckled to himself, "I knew that idiot couldn’t take down Abandoned Dragon. It’s good that he’s dead, anyway; he was just a pawn after all."

The werewolf knelt and continued to listen.

Su Ling, with a sharp glint in his eyes, said, "Alright, gather all the warriors. This time, I want the target dead. If I don’t see a body, I’ll hold you, filthy mutt, accountable."

The werewolf responded, "Rest assured, master, over a thousand warriors are already boiling with the will to fight and would not hesitate to die for you."

...

Hundreds of people were moving swiftly, some setting traps, some lying in ambush on guard, each displaying their unique specialties.

Fang Yi sat atop a huge boulder, cross-legged, with Song Pudgy standing by his side. The big fellow had found a large saber from somewhere, looking fierce as if he were there to protect Fang Yi.

Fang Yi gave a smile and didn’t stop him from his kind intentions.

Fang Yi was doing the final push at this moment, aware that if Su Ling came, he wouldn’t let things slide so easily. A fierce battle, perhaps even one to the death, was imminent.

Hence, at this time, Fang Yi was determined to break through the last four acupoints, although it was extremely difficult and might not succeed. Still, he had to try. Only by reaching the Heavenly Level could he turn this passive situation around.

"Damn it, looks like we’re really in for a rough fight," Song Wuliang said, gripping his saber, which trembled slightly.

"Are you scared?" Fang Yi suddenly asked. Although he was circulating his True Qi, he remained fully alert to his surroundings. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

"Yes, I’m scared," Song Wuliang answered, his thick skin evident – admitting fear when he felt it, with no need to pretend otherwise.

Fang Yi said emotionlessly, "Since you’re scared, go hide."

However, this was when Song Wuliang saw Qian’er not far away, the girl assisting Hua Huiyue with detoxification. He didn’t know where it came from, but a surge of courage welled up inside him. He took a deep breath, his chubby face turning red, yet he spoke fiercely, "Hide my ass! I’m a man, and I’ve got to act like one. I can’t let people look down on me!"

Hearing Song Wuliang’s words, Fang Yi didn’t say anything more.

The atmosphere was oppressively silent, unsettlingly quiet, with seconds ticking by, stretching the tension to its limits.

In this silence, invisible gunpowder seemed to gradually fill the air.

Time passed unknowingly, and a huge creature slowly emerged in the distance.
