I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

The people who had just experienced the landslide looked ahead, still shaken.

Under the light, the monster's terrifying appearance became clear to everyone.

Although I was filled with fear of these ugly, unknown creatures.

But after repeated reminders from Li Yuan and Sarah,

Everyone managed to keep their mouths tightly shut and not make a sound.

As Dan watched the monster approach, he couldn't help but whisper:

"Li, it's time to keep your promise!"

Li Yuan slowly released his hand from Rios and nodded.

Then he stood up and said to Cathy, who was cowering to the side in fright:

"Cathy, remember to make me look handsome in the photos."

"Okay...okay!"

Hearing Li Yuan's request, Cathy suppressed her fear.

He shakily raised the DV camera and started filming.

Li Yuan didn't take these underground monsters seriously at all.

In fact, they are not very dangerous to ordinary people; their claws and teeth are just very sharp.

The dark environment inside the cave is even more conducive to their activities, making it seem terrifying.

However, their skulls are very fragile, probably due to calcium deficiency.

In the original series, Juno and Sarah, two women, were able to defeat these monsters using only climbing axes.

If it weren't for the fear of the cave collapsing again, it would have been easier to solve the problem with a gun.

Li Yuan relaxed his shoulders, and the oak hammer moved from the system space into his hand.

"1, 2...7."

Li Yuan reached out and counted the number of monsters, then whistled softly.

"Sh-!"

The sharp whistling sounded particularly jarring in the empty and quiet cave.

The monsters, who were originally sensing their surroundings, instantly locked onto Li Yuan's direction!

They roared and charged madly toward Li Yuan.

Running on all fours, they navigated the uneven cave as if it were flat ground!

【Seal of Justice】

A golden light flashed in the corner of his eye, and the golden pattern of the [Seal of Justice] appeared on the back of Li Yuan's hand.

"My God, did you see that?"

Cathy whispered to Craig beside her in surprise.

While she was diligently filming with her DV camera, she instantly noticed Li Yuan's special nature.

Craig nervously swallowed, feeling a tightness in his throat.

"I...I saw it..."

He didn't care whether Li Yuan was special or not; he just wanted to know if Li Yuan could defeat these monsters.

After all, they don't look like people to mess with...

Instead of waiting idly, Li Yuan took the initiative to go forward and swung his hammer fiercely at the monster closest to him!

*Smack!*

The monster's head was smashed open like a watermelon!

The foul-smelling blood splattered all over Li Yuan.

The claw that the opponent swung at Li Yuan before dying

But his gear, which had transformed into a windbreaker, perfectly blocked it.

[Ding! Defeated an E-rank Cave Crawler (Wendigo branch), gaining 3 Holy Light Points and 25 Experience Points]

"Hmm!"

The bloody scene caused the people behind him to gasp in shock.

But the exclamation successfully attracted the attention of the other cave crawlers.

When the monster glanced in their direction, everyone quickly covered their mouths and dared not make a sound.

However, Li Yuan, who was standing to the side, was very happy.

These cave crawlers moved hesitantly.

This also gave him another opportunity to make a move!

Li Yuan turned his attention to another cave crawler that was stopped not far away.

He jogged a few steps, grabbed the oak hammer, and smashed it down.

The noise from the movement alerted the cave crawler.

But before it could react,

Li Yuan's oak hammer had already slammed into its forehead!

“Pah!”

As the opponent's head shattered, the kill notification sounded again in my ears.

【Ding......】

Meanwhile, the other cave crawlers discovered the location of their companion's death.

He charged at Li Yuan again in a frenzy!

Li Yuan found his position and performed a side roll to dodge the claws of the cave crawler.

Go around to their sides to avoid being surrounded.

Seize the opportunity when a monster misses its target.

He strode forward and smashed another monster's skull!

Of the seven cave crawlers, three were killed by Li Yuan in an instant!

At this moment, these monsters seemed to sense that...

The creature before them was different from the prey they had hunted before.

They hissed softly and slowly dispersed within the cave.

They attempted to surround Li Yuan, leaving him vulnerable from both sides.

Li Yuan saw through their intentions at a glance.

In the instant he was separated from the monster, he immediately rushed towards it.

The monster in front of them let out a roar instantly.

The monsters, which had already scattered, suddenly pounced on Li Yuan.

I thought they were just fast-moving creatures, but I never expected this.

The opponent's jumping ability was also surprisingly good.

They darted over like frogs!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Yuan quickly shrank back.

They dodged the two monsters that lunged at them.

However, a monster that had climbed to the top of the cave suddenly jumped down.

They grabbed his back hard.

Sharp claws swept across Li Yuan's back.

A sickening grinding sound rang out!

Despite the pain, Li Yuan turned around and delivered a powerful blow, smashing the monster's head to pieces.

Although the equipment was sturdy and undamaged, it works on the same principle as a bulletproof vest.

Not being injured doesn't mean it doesn't hurt!

"Damn! These monsters are pretty cunning!"

Li Yuan covered his back and cursed under his breath.

Then, enraged, he charged toward the remaining three monsters.

In just a few breaths, Li Yuan, carrying the monster's claws, smashed all their heads.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully leveling up! Level-up reward: 1 point of Strength! Current level: Apprentice Paladin Level 4 (20/800)]

As the battle ended, Cathy excitedly stood up and shouted:

"My goodness! Li, you're absolutely amazing!"

Craig, standing to the side, was a little jealous and muttered under his breath:

"I could do it too..."

Seeing that the crisis was over, everyone excitedly stood up, wanting to celebrate.

But Sarah quickly stopped her.

She solemnly warned in a low voice:

"Don't be too happy yet, there are countless monsters here."

Li Yuan shook the blood off the hammer and nodded in agreement:

"That's right, nobody knows how many monsters are here."

"Let's hurry up and find Juno so we can get back as soon as possible."

After witnessing Li Yuan's strength, Dan, who was initially somewhat unconvinced, finally gave in.

His gaze toward Li Yuan was no longer filled with doubt, but instead turned into fervor.

"Chinese Kung Fu?"

Dan looked at Li Yuan with shining eyes:

"I like Bruce Lee!"

Feeling Dan's gaze, Li Yuan couldn't help but get goosebumps on his arms.

After all, he had just been harassed by Captain Hans the day before yesterday...

He leaned to the side and whispered:

"Let's talk when we're safe, okay? Right now, our priority is finding Juno."

"certainly!"

Dan nodded and excitedly picked up the equipment to scout the way for everyone.

Soon after, the group arrived at a deserted cave filled with bones.

This appears to be a restaurant where monsters feed.

*Thud.*

Li Yuan kicked something.

The cave, filled with bones, was eerily quiet, making the sound of the collision all the more distinct.

He looked down curiously and discovered that it was a DV camera.

Li Yuan instantly realized that this must be the DV camera that Sarah and the others carried in the first movie.

Sure enough, just as he picked up the DV camera,

Sarah looked at the familiar item, and tears welled up in her eyes, which she could no longer hold back.

She squatted on the ground and burst into tears.

"Waaaaah... They're all dead... They all died in this damned place..."

Li Yuan slowly squatted down, suddenly grabbed Sarah's collar, and said in a heavy tone:

"Crying won't solve anything. I believe Juno is still alive."

Seeing Li Yuan's sharp gaze, no one dared to utter a sound.

Sarah, after a few sobs, finally regained her composure.

She looked up at Li Yuan as if she wanted to say something, but suddenly her pupils contracted, as if she had seen an extremely terrifying scene!
