The player is playing like a god, but their cheat code is Aatrox.

"Enemy attack!"

The guards around them sensed something was wrong and immediately shouted.

Inside the classroom, a sudden burst of crimson energy jolted everyone awake from their sleep.

"What's going on?"

"This...this is..."

Everyone noticed something was wrong as soon as they opened their eyes.

In the corner of the classroom, a figure shrouded in red light held a crystal bow, and opposite him stood a child.

An old man saw the child's face clearly, his pupils contracted sharply, and he cried out in alarm:

"Bixin!"

That was his grandson.

Bi Xin stared wide-eyed, not understanding why the general, who had just been so gentle, had suddenly become a different person.

No, it wasn't just his appearance that changed; even his aura was completely different, as if the person standing in front of him was a completely different person.

"General?" Bi Xin called out tentatively.

The red light slowly dissipated, and the figure glanced down at the little one who had spoken, his voice deep and sinister.

"General? Ha—I'm not going to play such childish games with you."

The sound alone was enough to send chills down your spine.

Bi Xin, who was still a child, was no exception. He was so frightened that his legs trembled uncontrollably, and he staggered back two steps.

An elderly man not far away carefully moved over and silently stood in front of his grandson.

"M-Sir..." he said, his voice trembling.

The figure turned to the old man, staring straight at him without uttering a word.

Staring at those eyes that glowed with a scarlet light, the old man felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but swallow.

Just when he was about to give up, the classroom door was kicked open.

"Put down your weapons! Surrender immediately!"

They are the Imperial Guard.

Eight soldiers, armed with laser guns, rushed into the classroom, their gun barrels all aimed at the figure.

As Bixin watched this scene, the image of his father being captured by the Imperial Guard flashed through his mind, and he subconsciously felt that these "bad guys" had come to capture his gentle older brother again.

He didn't understand why his brother had suddenly changed so much, but the tenderness Shi Yi had shown him still made him rush out involuntarily.

"Don't hurt the general!"

Bi Xin's shout startled everyone in the classroom and the guards.

"General?"

Everyone's gazes instinctively fell on the eerie figure.

"Little friend, quick, come behind this uncle! He's a bad guy!"

This man didn't look like a general at all, yet he sneaked into the settlement in the middle of the night and even deceived a child.

The figure finally spoke again.

"Haha, General? What a nostalgic title..."

His words drew everyone's attention.

Could this man really be a general?

Before they could think it through, the figure moved in the next second.

So fast that even afterimages couldn't be caught.

Everyone only saw a flash of light before their eyes, and several arrows flew from the bowstring of the purple crystal bow.

call out--

"Ugh—!"

The guardsmen had no time to react.

The arrow pierced his chest instantly, and then his whole body withered away rapidly, like a dried-out shell.

In the blink of an eye, only three of the eight guards remained.

"I prefer you call me Verus. Or, as we all share—"

"Darkborn".

The air in the classroom seemed to have been sucked out; even the sound of breathing disappeared.

The remaining three guardsmen held their guns, the muzzles still pointed at the man who called himself Verus, but their fingers were trembling.

They had never seen anyone aim and draw their bow in an instant, or fire five arrows in a row without missing a single one.

Moreover, that arrow was extremely strange.

The person who was hit by the arrow seemed to have been completely drained.

As for the "Darkborn," they had never heard of them.

This method, however, seems to belong to another realm.

The infamous enemy of angels in the known universe.

"A demon! It's a demon!"

One of the older guards cried out.

The other two young soldiers' eyes widened instantly upon hearing the word "demon".

Unlike angels who preach justice and order, demons, capricious and bloodthirsty, are far more terrifying.

"Hurry, go and request reinforcements! Find a way to get a message to the higher-ups—a demon has descended upon Biqiu Star!"

The older guard was terrified, but he still turned to give orders to the two younger soldiers.

"But...senpai..."

The two looked hesitant.

"Stop talking nonsense! If you don't leave now, nobody's going anywhere!"

The older one couldn't help but shout.

The two gritted their teeth and finally nodded.

But the commoners in this classroom... I'm afraid...

"Walk?"

Varus smiled.

Are these people really taking him too lightly?

"No need to rush—I'll give you a ride."

Before the words were finished, the crimson color on the amethyst bow condensed once more.

This time it wasn't five arrows, but one.

A dark red arrow, thicker, longer, and more dazzling than any of the previous arrows.

The moment the bowstring was fully drawn, fine, blood-red cracks appeared all over the walls of the classroom, as if the space itself had been torn open by this force.

The older guard's pupils constricted sharply.

He subconsciously made a move that he himself couldn't explain afterward.

He didn't fire or dodge; instead, he suddenly turned around, spread his arms, and used his body to shield the two young soldiers and the civilians.

"run--!!!"

He shouted until he was hoarse, and the veins on his neck bulged.

This was the last thing he could do as a soldier:

They used their own flesh and blood to buy even a fraction of a second of escape time for those behind them.

However, after waiting for a long time

The anticipated scene of an arrow piercing his chest did not occur.

Everyone looked over and saw that Verus's hand holding the bow was trembling.

It wasn't the trembling of someone exhausted, but the kind of trembling where one person uses all their strength to pry open another person's fingers, a trembling of two fingers wrestling against each other.

This scene left everyone present somewhat bewildered.

Verus spoke again, but this time his voice was not as hoarse and low as before; instead, it sounded like a desperate shout.

"Run! Run!"

The crowd was puzzled and muttered to themselves.

Is this person not quite right in the head?

One moment they're incredibly cruel, the next they let them run away.

No one dared to move, fearing it was just a charade put on by the other party.

Once they turn and run toward the classroom door, the other party will shoot them in the back.

Bi Xin became excited.

"General!"

He recognized the voice; it was that of his brother, the general.

The older guard was also completely bewildered, but

He immediately raised the laser gun in his hand.

Whether the other party is faking it or not, isn't now a perfect opportunity?

Without the slightest hesitation, he pulled the trigger.

A laser beam, five centimeters thick and thirty centimeters long, shot from the muzzle of the gun, heading straight for Verus's head...
