Those who reincarnate must die.

Holding the still-warm heart in his hand, Zhang Lang frowned. (Google search reading)

Zhang Lang had killed many large monsters in his hometown and had a good grasp of the proportions of a heart and body size. This sandstorm lizard was nearly twenty meters long and weighed at least ten tons; he estimated its heart must weigh at least one or two hundred kilograms—this seemed rather small…

However, since they are fantastical creatures capable of magic, we cannot deduce their existence using common sense...

Just as Zhang Lang was about to leave, clutching his heart, a throwing knife suddenly landed at his feet.

"Hey! I'm asking you a question!" Zhao Ying shouted sharply, brandishing a throwing knife in his hand, while the other hero-level characters subtly surrounded him.

Only the lightning bolt didn't move; instead, it took two steps back.

"Everyone, don't act rashly, get away from him quickly!" Thunder's electronic voice was still devoid of emotion, but for some reason, one could hear the panic in it.

The other heroes looked at him strangely: "You know him?"

Lei Ting didn't answer. Instead, he opened his storage space, pulled out an exaggerated-looking rocket launcher, and pointed it at Zhang Lang: "Here's the stuff. Don't come any closer!"

"Why should we?" The other heroes couldn't possibly agree. Zhang Lang himself looked down at his feet in confusion, thinking, "I didn't move, did I?"

"Huh? This outfit..." Olissis suddenly realized, "Aren't you that 'Count Hunter'?"

After his reminder, the other heroes also recognized him. This guy was the mysterious reincarnator who spoke up for Olissis in the square earlier. They only recognized his leather coat from a distance.

"It's me!" Zhang Lang admitted.

"Since you helped me, you can have a share of the bounty!" Olissis said, "but you can't take it all!"

Zhang Lang raised an eyebrow: "I killed the monster! The loot is mine too!"

"You killed him?!" The heroes looked at each other in disbelief. They had initially suspected that the lizard's head had exploded due to a backlash of power, but now they realized that it was this guy who did it.

It wasn't that the heroes were narrow-minded; they had already experienced the lizard's defensive capabilities as a second-level lord, especially after its enhancement. Various skills and weapons had limited effect on it. But this time, it exploded, and even the hardest skull couldn't withstand it. Their first thought was that it had been killed.

"A powerful weapon, or a strong skill?" The heroes were even more wary of Zhang Lang.

"That's why I said, forget about the stuff, let's get out of here!" Thunder continued, holding up the rocket launcher.

"That won't do!" Olissis insisted, then turned to Zhang Lang and continued, "We've lost several lives trying to kill this monster!"

"What does that have to do with me?"

"Of course it's related!" Zhao Ying, having already dried himself off, pointed at Zhang Lang and said, "If I hadn't tried so hard to distract this guy and create an opportunity for you, would you have been able to take him down so easily?"

Upon hearing this, all the other heroes turned to look at him, even Olissis looked at him with disgust: "Shameless!"

"How dare you say that to me?" Zhao Ying turned around and pointed at Olissis's nose. "If it weren't for your terrible idea yesterday, letting those sacrifices come back for revenge, we would have taken down this giant lizard long ago!"

"I...I meant well!" Olissis cried out urgently, "For everyone's benefit..."

Seeing that the group of heroes were arguing amongst themselves, Zhang Lang looked at Lei Ting.

"Have we met before?"

Lei Ting didn't answer, but simply pointed the rocket launcher at Zhang Lang: "I told you, you got the stuff!"

"This rocket of mine is a rare weapon, specially modified for its destructive power. After it explodes, everything within a radius of several hundred meters will be scorched earth. If you continue to harass me, don't blame me for taking you down with me!"

"What?" Everyone else took a step back upon hearing this. This Thunder had just been promoted to Hero-level, and this mission was his first Hero-level mission. Moreover, he put on power armor as soon as he entered the altar. No one else even noticed his true appearance, let alone any enhancements he had received.

I previously assumed his weaponry consisted of a rare-grade power armor set, a matching machine gun, and a rare-grade under-barrel grenade launcher. I never imagined he also had a rare-grade rocket launcher?

And judging by its size, they figured Thunder's claim of power wasn't an exaggeration. Besides, this guy speaks in a completely emotionless electronic voice; who knows what his mental state is like inside the armor right now!

Brother, you may not want to live, but we do!

"Don't...don't be impulsive!" The maned wolf had already retreated a considerable distance. "Let's talk this out...there's no need to get so agitated..."

Tuka also said to Zhang Lang, "Take the heart!"

Murong Lan, who was behind her, also nodded as she slowly backed away.

"We can negotiate with each other; we don't necessarily have to resort to force!" The rocket launcher seemed to have made Olissis less arrogant.

Zhang Lang didn't seem scared at all. He stared at Lei Ting and asked, "Want to team up with me?"

"Huh?" This reaction was unexpected by everyone. They were threatening to kill themselves, and you still had the mind to invite people to team up?

Zhang Lang, seemingly oblivious to the awkward atmosphere, continued, "I need your storage capacity!"

"I can give this heart to your companion, and I'll also give you a reward of one hundred gold coins a day! You can also hunt monsters, and all the monsters you kill are yours. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, the others thought, "This isn't a team; it's practically hiring a backpacker! And a heart worth 1200 is just thrown away like that? And 100 gold coins a day? Even for them, as heroes, if they don't hunt lords, the bounty from each kill might not even reach 100 a day! Where does this guy get his confidence?"

Is it because of the buff that instantly kills the Sandstorm Lizard? If that thing were a weapon, firing it would probably consume a lot of energy... but if it's a skill? It only requires waiting for the cooldown and consuming a tiny bit of stamina...

"Don't be so arrogant!" Murong Lan frowned behind her goggles, her Gauss sniper rifle charging up in her hand. "We're hero-level!"

"A Hero-class character who only knows how to intimidate with titles?" Zhang Lang raised an eyebrow, looked at Lei Ting, and continued to persuade him, "I won't ask who you are or where you've seen me before, and I won't let you out of the armor. Just help me load things, how about that?"

"I won't team up with you!" Thunder's finger rested on the rocket launcher's trigger, his synthesized voice remaining perfectly flat: "Take your spoils and leave!"

"I don't know who you are, or where I've seen you before..." Zhang Lang looked at Lei Ting, "But since you're so afraid, you should know that thing might not be useful. You'll only end up blowing yourself up and taking your teammates with you!"

"Stop talking..." Beneath Lei Ting's calm voice lurked a tense atmosphere that made everyone uneasy.

Just then, a slender finger pulled the trigger...
