My stats are higher than yours!!

Bai Shuodong danced in the flames, his spear constantly waving. The crimson of blood and fire intertwined, turning into kindling to ignite his fighting spirit. He fought, laughed wildly, and leaped for joy, releasing his true self.

The level 7 marksmanship skills were brought to their fullest potential at this moment. Thrust, flick, sweep, smash... simple shooting techniques were elevated to a higher level, and every shot brought down an enemy.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!..."

Several arrows fell again, piercing Bai Shuodong's body, but this time they did not penetrate his flesh; they were simply knocked to the ground by his armor.

The Gray Rock Blademen roared and surrounded them, their four broadswords falling one after another.

Bai Shuodong parried left and right with his gun, and at the same time, he inadvertently narrowed his eyes to concentrate.

【斬】

A bloodstain appeared instantly on one person's neck, followed by a large amount of blood gushing out.

Finally, a broadsword came slashing horizontally. Bai Shuodong leaned back and dodged almost touching the blade, a truly terrifying moment.

He immediately drew his gun and struck the gray-rock knife-wielder in the calf. The man screamed and fell to his knees, unable to get up again. All that could be heard were the screams and cries of his comrades around him. Finally, the spear pierced his heart.

Bai Shuodong stepped over the corpses, pointed two fingers at the commander watching in the distance, tilted his head slightly, and said, "Is all you're going to do is watch?!"

The commander remained silent; he didn't want to risk his life, it was far too dangerous.

The next moment, Bai Shuodong suddenly laughed.

Guess why I'm speaking? And why am I pointing at you while I'm speaking?

[Slow Explosion]

[Solution]

An invisible slash erupted instantly, neatly slicing through branches, leaves, and bodies within a ten-meter radius. Fragments of leaves and wood chips flew amidst the blood and flesh. Seven or eight gray rock swordsmen remained standing until half a breath later, when their lower bodies slowly slid down.

Meanwhile, the commander opposite him had a gruesome bloodstain appearing on his chest, his body silently severed in two, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The bloody mist of war rose in the forest, its stench amplified by the flames.

This is the air of strife.

Bai Shuodong strode forward, stepping on streams of blood that shone with a terrifying intensity.

"died!"

"Lord Grayflame is dead!"

The people in the gray rock forest were in disarray.

This was not only because the commander had died in battle, but also because the enemy they faced was too terrifying. The invisible slashes and flames gradually destroyed their reason, and Bai Shuodong's maniacal smile was etched into the minds of every soldier.

"devil!"

"That's the devil!"

One of the gray rock warriors shouted, threw down his machete, and ran into the depths of the forest.

His escape had a significant impact; the morale of the other Gray Rock people who were originally planning to fight or observe instantly plummeted, and several Gray Rock warriors fled in succession.

Bai Shuodong had already killed most of the Gray Rock warriors, and the few remaining were no match for him, so they all ran away, leaving only three tough guys who continued to roar and charge at Bai Shuodong, brandishing their cleavers.

[Solution]

The three Gray Rock warriors died with their last honor, their bodies falling to the ground.

Bai Shuodong watched the people flee with a smile. He wanted to wipe them all out in one fell swoop, but there were also patrol riders lurking behind the convoy. If these guys managed to slip through, it would be a huge loss.

He turned and left.

Behind it is a scene of blood and fire, a hellish landscape.

Chapter 73 The debt of gratitude to the superior is never fully repaid!

After the battle ended, Bai Shuodong quickly returned to the convoy, pondering to himself.

[Solution] The combination of [Slow Burst] and [Slow Burst] is indeed good, and its power is far greater than the normal [Solution]. Moreover, the burst state can be exited directly, but it consumes more stamina.

I have evolved adaptively, so I don't mind high physical exertion; once I adapt, there's no problem.

[Solution] Since it combines with [Slow Burst] and the burst state doesn't last, I might as well use it as a new skill.

Let's call it... [Sever]!

...

Lonely Ridge Road, Caravan

The situation here is not optimistic. As soon as the sounds of battle rang out, the pursuing cavalry responded immediately.

One group of cavalrymen were still pacing back and forth at the crossroads with bows and arrows, giving them no chance to escape, while another group took the opportunity to climb up the cliff and throw wood and stones down from above.

"Boom!!"

The sound of rocks and giant trees falling from the cliff was deafening, forcing the WuZ vehicle team to stop. The old guard's expression was extremely ugly.

The broken logs and stones didn't completely block the road, but it would take a lot of time to get through. If the other side found something to drop, they would be doomed.

There's no way to leave!

"There are people in high places!"

The old guard looked up at the cliff and saw several gray rock archers looking down at them with cruel smiles on their faces, aiming their arrows at them below.

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted desperately, "Get out of the way! Get under the car! Get behind the rocks! Lean against the rock wall!"

“Swish swish!!”

Arrows kept falling from the height.

The cart, blocked by falling rocks and giant trees, was pushed and crammed together haphazardly. The cart drivers and laborers squatted against the cart and the rock face, trembling and afraid to move.

Someone was shot in the leg with an arrow, and the blood flowed down their clothes and into the cracks in the rubble, like a small black and red snake slowly crawling away.

Graytooth lay prone under the car, his expression extremely ugly. Even if he did have a bow and arrow, shooting from below would be far more difficult than shooting from above. As the saying goes: shoot from above, shoot from below, shoot an idiot. That's exactly how it is.

Thule and several other guards risked their lives to move the grain wagons across, creating a blind spot for the attack, but this was only a temporary solution. As long as those people were still on high ground, the convoy was a sitting duck, and the rangers behind could approach at any time.

"Brothers, don't show yourselves! Don't give these bastards a chance! Once the cavalry enter the narrow passage, we'll fight them head-on. Killing one won't be a loss, killing two will be enough! Hahaha!" Tule shouted to the others, clenching his fist.

"it is good!"

"Fuck him!"

"Don't give us a chance!"

The people under the vehicle held their breath, ready for the final battle at any moment.

Arrows were still being shot down from above, but the frequency of the shots was decreasing because the remaining people were hiding under the chariot, and the arrows could no longer reach them. Continuing to attack would only be a waste of arrows.

Just as the battlefield was gradually calming down, a voice suddenly broke the silence.

"Where did the stones and wood come from?"

"Who's the fool who's trying to annoy me?"

A middle-aged, tough man, covered in blood and with a fierce and arrogant expression, strode in with a bold and imposing gait.

The old guard was overjoyed to see Bai Shuodong, but his joy was quickly followed by worry. He hurriedly shouted, "Watch out, there might be someone up there!!"

"what?"

Bai Shuodong looked up and saw a fine rain of arrows falling from the sky. He raised his spear and waved it above his head. The clanging of weapons rang out one after another, and countless arrows fell to the ground.

The attacks from above came wave after wave.

Soon after, Bai Shuodong got angry. He stopped dodging and picked up an arrow from the ground. He activated [Slow Burst] and threw it forcefully at the crowd on the cliff above.

"Whoosh!!"

The arrow pierced the sky and instantly pierced the chest of a gray rock archer who was drawing his bow, a scream echoing from the cliff.

Bai Shuodong below was also in bad shape. Without using any weapons to resist, he was instantly hit by several arrows. Most of the arrows grazed his armor, almost causing injury, and one arrow even grazed Bai Shuodong's face.

"Well..."

Bai Shuodong touched his face, feeling the bright red blood and a piercing pain. His expression grew even more ferocious as he raised his head and roared, "How dare you touch my stunningly handsome face? I'll kill you all right now!"

He stopped defending and used [Slow Burst] as if by instinct, shattering the ground with one foot and shooting his body upward like a cannonball, crashing straight into the stone wall.

"Boom!!"

A deafening sound erupted as Bai Shuodong's fist embedded itself in the stone wall. With a powerful thrust of his legs, he moved upwards once more.

These incredible climbing techniques instantly astonished the archers on the cliff.

"Quickly, find sticks! Find boulders!"

"Smash this guy down!"

The people above moved quickly. One of them had just poked his head out, still holding a large rock in his arms, and was about to throw it off the cliff when a line of red blood suddenly appeared on his neck.

Immediately afterwards, the stone in his hand fell to the ground, and he fell directly from the height, crashing down in front of the convoy like a broken sack.

The mountain path fell silent for a moment.

Bai Shuodong suddenly laughed, a wild and terrifying laugh, like a demon emerging from hell, staring at the people above. He raised one hand and pointed upwards with two fingers.

Suddenly, the archers became clever and hid behind the stone wall, giving him no chance to use his ability to behead them.

but...

【断】

An invisible strike erupted instantly, the unseen blade slicing through the stone wall, leaving a perfectly clean cut on the edge of the cliff.

Yes, Bai Shuodong's attack wasn't aimed at anyone at all; he was aiming at the edge of the stone wall. He wanted to cut the entire stone wall in half, causing everyone to fall down with it.

"Crack!"

The broken stone wall slid down, and the people who were hiding on it immediately sensed something was wrong. By the time they tried to escape, it was too late.

They screamed and wailed as they stood on the broken rock face, falling from the edge of the cliff, their hands flailing helplessly.

Finally, it died with a "snap".

"Bang!!"

Bai Shuodong changed his angle again and slashed at the stone wall on the other side, but after witnessing the tragic end of his companion, many of the people on that side reacted and ran back for their lives, not giving him a chance to kill him.

"Tch! A bunch of trash!"

Bai Shuodong grumbled angrily, then fell off the cliff, landing steadily on the ground. He lightly dusted off his clothes and said, "Problem solved, let's go..."

He turned his head and saw that the fragments of the rock wall he had cut blocked the mountain path. His face immediately darkened. He then activated [Sever] again, cutting the rock wall open and creating a path that he could pass through directly.

"Lord Red Fang's heroic figure is unparalleled! Lord Red Fang is peerless in the world!" Gray Fang crawled out from under the car and exclaimed with unparalleled pride.

"Lord Red Fang's heroic figure is unparalleled! Lord Red Fang is peerless in the world!"

"Lord Red Fang's heroic figure is unparalleled! Lord Red Fang is peerless in the world!"

...

Soon, the others in the convoy joined in the chant, their eyes filled with admiration.

[Hint: Morale increased]

Morale: 60

During battle, your soldiers will have a stronger belief and their fighting spirit will be enhanced.

Bai Shuodong glanced at it but ignored it.

He waved his hand and said, "Come with me, I'll lead you out of this desolate mountain path."

"And those people up ahead..."

The elderly nurse asked with concern.

In his view, it was already a miracle that Bai Shuodong was able to come back alive from the front lines.

"Follow my orders! You are my soldier! You only need to obey orders! You don't need to think when I'm giving commands!" Bai Shuodong shouted at the old guard.

"Yes... I understand!"

The old nurse trembled.

Suddenly, he had a very strange feeling. He knew he should continue to ask questions in order to make a more rational choice, but his emotions told him to just obey his superiors and not to overthink it.
