Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 32 Fire Hammer Squad?

The martial artists in the team were also a bit confused; they hadn't even seen how this person had suddenly appeared.

The captain was the first to react, and said:

"Thank you so much for your help, sir!"

The one-horned wild boar is known for its powerful charge.

Being hit by this mid-level beast general-level unicorn is no less powerful than being hit head-on by a truck traveling at 100 kilometers per hour.

Even high-ranking generals wouldn't dare to say they could withstand a direct collision.

To be able to withstand a hit and be completely unharmed, one must be at least a war god-level powerhouse!

Jiang Lan turned her head and said calmly:

"Step back a bit."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Lan's figure vanished, leaving only an afterimage in the same spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the one-horned wild boar.

"Thump!!!"

A punch landed on the forehead of the one-horned wild boar. A visible shockwave rippled out from where the fist collided with the boar's head, causing the surrounding weeds to sway.

After the punch, the one-horned boar's head was completely sunken into its body, leaving only half of its horn protruding from the front of its neck, resembling a lying "义" (yì) character.

The martial arts team was dumbfounded.

Is this a human being?

The remaining beastmen, seeing that their leader, the one-horned boar, had died so easily, howled and tried to run away into the distance.

Seeing this, Jiang Lan had a sudden thought, and the Golden Feather Halberd instantly appeared in his hand. Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, he charged towards the fleeing beasts.

Before they could even scream, the remaining dozen or so monsters were instantly killed.

Upon seeing this, the members of the martial arts team all swallowed hard.

A few seconds later, the squad leader stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting to Jiang Lan, and said:

"Thank you for your help, God of War."

Only then did Jiang Lan have the mind to carefully observe the members of the team.

He narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the squad leader who was carrying two large hammers.

This person looks kind of familiar...

Standard combat uniforms are usually equipped with helmets.

Moreover, the helmet is not transparent; it is a one-way glass, meaning only those inside can see out.

Therefore, Jiang Lan could not see the faces of the opposing martial arts team members behind their helmets.

But after staring at the team members for a while, the inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart grew stronger.

Since he transmigrated to this point, he has hardly met any other martial artists.

Before he could even ask, the captain of the martial arts team opposite him continued:

"We are from the Extreme Martial Arts School, Fire Hammer Team. May we ask if you would mind revealing your identity, War God? If so, we will definitely pay you a visit when we return."

Jiang Lan was taken aback upon hearing this.

Firehammer Squad?

Is this warrior carrying two hammers Gao Feng?

Although they had only met once, Jiang Lan still had some impression of Gao Feng.

If he hadn't insisted, he might have come to the wilderness area with the rest of the Firehammer team.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Lan did not reveal his identity, but simply shook his head slightly and said in a hoarse voice:

"No need."

After saying that, he turned into a blur and disappeared from the sight of the Fire Hammer Squad in an instant.

The members of the Firehammer Squad looked at each other in bewilderment.

The team member carrying the scimitar said in disbelief, "Is this the power of the God of War? I didn't even see it clearly just now."

The other person scoffed.

"Don't be ridiculous. If you could see clearly, wouldn't you be a war god too?"

Then, he looked at the monster corpses scattered all over the ground and said, "The God of War is indeed the God of War. It seems that he didn't even want the body material of this intermediate-level beast general."

"The most valuable part of this one-horned boar is the single horn on its forehead. If we sold it to the HR Alliance, it would probably fetch around 20 million. But why would they even consider it? With that kind of strength, it could easily earn billions just by hunting down a lord-level monster."

"Captain, let's put the materials away."

Hearing what his teammates said, Gao Feng nodded absentmindedly.

"What's wrong?"

Upon seeing the captain's appearance, a team member carrying a gun beside him expressed concern.

"It's nothing." Gao Feng raised his head, his voice hesitant. "Chen Gu, why do I feel like that War God looked a little familiar?"

"Haha..." Chen Gu laughed twice and said, "I think you're hallucinating, Captain. I've known you for so many years, how come I didn't know you knew the God of War?"

After a moment of silence, Gao Feng said:

"Maybe... I'm overthinking it?"

"It's not a possibility," Chen Gu corrected, "You're just overthinking it."

……

Jiang Lan stopped two kilometers away.

It wasn't that he did good deeds anonymously, but if he revealed his identity to Gao Feng and the others, he would inevitably be bombarded with questions and cause delays.

After all, just a few days ago, when Jiang Lan left Mingyue Community, her physical fitness was only that of a warrior.

In just three or four days, he has become a war god; it's hard not to be curious.

Jiang Lan was not afraid that her strength was improving too quickly and that others would find out.

He simply didn't want to cause trouble.

At times like these, focusing on improving our strength is the key.

In fact, if he hadn't already run out of food and water, Jiang Lan wouldn't have even chosen to resupply at the supply base; he would have gone straight to the next location.

Raising his wrist and glancing at the location on his watch, Jiang Lan turned his gaze toward the supply base.

He is currently about 220 kilometers away from the supply base.

Although the journey wasn't short, it wasn't far for Jiang Lan either.

While one can't always travel at full speed, maintaining a speed of around 200 meters per second is quite easy for Jiang Lan.

Based on this calculation, under ideal circumstances, he would only need less than twenty minutes to return from this county-level city (No. 0201) to the Southeast Military Region's supply base.

"Aww—"

Just as Jiang Lan was pondering, a beastly roar suddenly rang out from not far away from him.

Jiang Lan looked towards the source of the sound and saw a mastiff, its body as long as a small car and covered in fur, staring at him with fierce eyes. Saliva dripped from the corner of its mouth onto the ground, forming a puddle.

Seeing this, Jiang Lan didn't say a word. He threw his golden-feathered halberd and flew it straight at the lion-mastiff at an extremely fast speed.

In an instant, the once ferocious mastiff was pinned to the asphalt road by the halberd.

[Sacrificeable item detected: Mastiff (corpse). Would you like to sacrifice it?]

offer……

Jiang Lan was about to make a sacrifice, but then it seemed as if she had thought of something.

He canceled the sacrifice, took two steps forward, stood before the lion-mastiff, studied it carefully for a while, and then muttered to himself:

"I remember reading in the book that...it's the claws that are valuable, right?"
