A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

Chapter 81 Those damned infected people are here again!

"Weapons?" Wang Chong's expression turned strange upon hearing this. This little girl really knows nothing about this stuff; no wonder she thought that sleeping together would result in pregnancy.

"Pfft..." Just then, a suppressed laugh suddenly came from a bed not far away. Although the sound was very soft, Wang Chong and Shuangxing, who were present, heard it clearly.

"Ugh!" Frostnova suddenly remembered that Alina was actually in the room. She had been making such a fuss with Wang Chong, she was afraid she had woken her up.

"Cough cough cough..." Wang Chong coughed twice. Although he had done such things in front of a third person before, it was a bit too stimulating for both Alina and Frostnova, so he had to give up for the time being.

……

"Um, Alina... when did you wake up?"

In the sky, Wang Chong and the others once again drove the Black Mist rapidly towards a certain village. At this moment, Froststar looked embarrassed and was whispering to Alina.

“I…I woke up right while you were talking,” Alina said, her eyes slightly dark.

"You don't look like you slept well..."

"Well... you know, I was scared about that thing yesterday, so I had some nightmares and didn't sleep well. No... but I only found out about you this morning after overhearing your conversation..." Alina's eyes began to dart around, and she didn't continue, after all, there were other people present.

"Oh... I see." Froststar didn't dare to ask any further; it would be quite embarrassing for acquaintances to know about this. She had acted recklessly and boldly when she did it, but now, looking back, it was so embarrassing she wanted to dig a three-bedroom apartment out of her toes.

As for Alina, she breathed a sigh of relief. She wasn't good at lying, and she only said those things to avoid embarrassing Frostnova. In fact, Alina's dark circles had nothing to do with the nightmare. She had actually been woken up by Frostnova's movements late at night when she sneaked out of bed.

As Frostnova said, in this turbulent land of Ursus, who dares to truly fall into a deep sleep? Alina was no exception.

However, after being awakened by Froststar's movements, Alina had planned to go back to sleep. She thought Froststar had just gotten up to urinate or something. To Alina's surprise, the other woman was so bold as to climb into Wang Chong's bed.

Although Alina had clearly sensed Frostnova's affection for Wang Chong when they discussed it before, she never expected that their relationship had actually progressed to this point.

Just as Alina was starting to daydream, she heard Frostnova's embarrassing yet innocent confession. The sheer amount of information was so overwhelming that Alina couldn't sleep a wink all night.

It was only through Frostnova's words that Alina learned that Talulah was also involved. Although Frostnova introduced Wang Chong and mentioned his influence on the Reunion Movement, Alina had absolutely no idea about him pursuing Talulah.

So what does Frostnova mean? She stole Talulah's suitor? Frostnova cheated on Talulah? Alina suddenly felt that the outside world had changed so much since she left.

Of course, besides all that, Alina also realized how naive Frostnova was. Even she herself had heard her family talk about matters of the heart, yet Frostnova seemed completely clueless, not even knowing about the things men possessed that were so different from women's. Otherwise, she wouldn't have made such a ridiculous joke, like hiding a weapon in her pants, which made Alina burst out laughing.

"However, what happened this morning...it's really quite enviable. Frostnova has finally found her happiness, we should congratulate her." Alina recalled their conversation and couldn't help but smile happily. Alina loved watching the people around her find happiness, as if she herself could feel the same happiness.

"We've arrived at the next village." Just then, Wang Chong's voice rang out, and everyone realized they had arrived at a new village. The black mist slowly descended, but before it had completely landed, a sigh came from above.

"Another abandoned farmland. Could it be that those guys have wiped out the entire village as well?" Froststar clenched her fists as she looked at the desolate landscape.

"Ines, can we detect the situation in the village from this distance?" Wang Chong asked.

“Let me see… Ha, same here. Just like the first village we arrived at, there’s no trace of human presence. I’m afraid this village is also in grave danger,” Ines said after sensing the situation.

“Since it’s the same as the last village, let’s skip this one and head to the next. Based on the general trend of the abandoned villages, we might be able to find the whereabouts of those people directly,” Wang Chong said, pointing to another village not far from here.

……

Soon, the morning had passed. Except for Ghost Shark, who showed absolutely no interest in his surroundings, a gloomy expression hung over everyone's faces. They had already passed through five villages, all of which were now dead villages, devoid of any life.

Frostnova, who had been shy and demure that morning, had transformed back into the warrior of Reunion, a fighter against injustice, after witnessing countless silent tragedies. The flames in her eyes had been suppressed for a long time, waiting for the right moment to be unleashed.

"The sixth village. The farmland looks rather deserted. Looks like another deserted place... Hmm?" Ines looked at the barren fields and couldn't help but sigh. However, when she began to use her Originium Arts to sense the situation in the village as usual, she unexpectedly discovered about twenty shadows in the village.

"What? Did you find something?" Wang Chong asked calmly, hearing Ines's questioning tone.

“It seems there are still people alive in this village,” Ines remarked.

“Oh? There are still survivors… Judging from the tracks along the way, those infected tribesmen were definitely heading in this direction. This place is quite desolate; it seems those guys have wreaked havoc in this area. Ines, can you tell anything from the shadows of those people in the village?” Wang Chong continued to ask.

"Hmm... those people seem to be mostly normal villagers, but their emotions are very unstable, filled with fear, vigilance, and deep anger... most of them are elderly, weak, women, and children, with very few able-bodied men," Ines said seriously after taking a look.

“They’re all normal villagers… In that case, let’s go down and investigate.” With that, Wang Chong manipulated the black mist to land in the field, and the group walked towards the village entrance.

Not all the villagers stayed indoors; occasionally, a few elderly people stood on the street, looking around from time to time, as if they were patrolling for something. Because of this, people soon noticed Wang Chong and his group walking towards the village entrance.

"Wait... those black crystals... and that symbol!! Quick! Sound the sirens! Those damn infected are here again!" An elderly man with excellent eyesight saw the Reunion symbol on Frostnova's clothes and immediately changed his expression, shouting loudly to his companions.

Upon hearing this, the other elderly patrol members immediately sounded the siren and ran into the house.

"Hmm? Something's not right. They seem to be moving very fast." Froststar also saw the villagers fleeing quickly after seeing her, and while she was puzzled, she also became wary.

“That’s the sound of a police siren. It seems the people in that village don’t really welcome strangers…” Wang Chong said, turning his head to look at the village name sign at the entrance and reading, “Omsk Village… Interesting.”

"The villagers have all burrowed underground and are moving further and further away from the village. Then, some of them are standing guard at the entrances of the houses, armed and very hostile towards us," Ines said immediately after using Originium Arts to investigate the situation.

"They've gone underground? And they're speeding away? Heh, I didn't expect there to be such a network of tunnels here." Wang Chong's eyes lit up slightly upon hearing this, and then he instructed Froststar, Specter, and Ines, "Alright, take down those guys who were lying in ambush in the village first. Oh, and don't kill them, especially Specter, put down the saw."

Chapter 82 Tragedy in the Village

"You damn infected! (Ursus curse)!! If you've got the guts, kill me! I'll be a hero again in eighteen years!"

"Bah! You demons... (Ursus curses)!! I curse you to die a horrible death! I curse the Originium within you to torment you bit by bit, inside and out, until you are blown apart and shattered to pieces!!"

The two captured young men were cursing loudly, while the remaining elderly people who were tied up looked ashen-faced. They neither begged for mercy nor tried to argue, but simply kept their heads down, as if they had already resigned themselves to their fate.

The people who were lying in ambush in the village wanted to ambush Wang Chong and his group, but they were no match for Shuangxing and his men. They were all easily captured and brought before Wang Chong.

“Those who were caught are already here. I’m afraid they’ve mistaken us for infected people who defected from Reunion.” Frostnova came up to Wang Chong, looked at the villagers, and with her keen senses, she had already guessed some of the reasons. After all, she had noticed that many of them were staring at the Reunion symbol on her clothes.

"Hmm..." Wang Chong nodded, then frowned as he looked at the two young men who were still cursing. With a wave of his hand, two streams of black mist shot out, cutting a shallow wound from the side of their heads, and then instantly shattered and destroyed a boulder behind them with a loud bang.

"Well--!!"

The burning pain and the explosion behind them momentarily replaced the anger of the two noisy men with fear. Wang Chong simply walked forward slowly and said, "I'm not one to waste words. If we were the kind of people you think we are, you would already be dead. We don't hurt people for no reason. Consider this scratch a lesson for your foul language."

"Who among you has any influence here?" Wang Chong turned his head and looked at the older people, asking.

"I... I'm the village chief here." An old man who looked somewhat thin but had a rare shrewdness in his eyes stepped out from the crowd.

"May I ask if this gentleman has any connection with those infected thugs? Or perhaps you know those guys?" The village chief's question went straight to the point. As a seasoned village chief with extensive experience, he had already seen through the clues.

“We are from the Reunion Movement.” As soon as Wang Chong revealed his identity, he observed that the expressions of those people changed after hearing the name Reunion Movement.

After taking in everyone's expressions, he continued, "We came here by chasing a group of traitors who defected from our organization. On the way, we discovered that several villages had been brutally murdered by those people. We found this place by following the direction of the villages they massacred. But we never expected to be 'warmly entertained' by you as soon as we entered the village."

“I see. Sigh, it was all a misunderstanding. When we saw that sign, we thought their people were attacking our village again to plunder our food and kill for their own amusement. After all, they call themselves the Reunion Movement and they keep saying they want to make those who aren't infected taste hunger, humiliation, and fear.” The old village chief said involuntarily.

"Those damned beasts!" Froststar cursed, took a deep breath, and said, "Old village chief, please rest assured and tell us about those guys. We are indeed here to eradicate those scoundrels."

"Is...is that really so?" The old village chief was still somewhat hesitant, seemingly still harboring some reservations. At this moment, Wang Chong moved his fingers, and all the black mist chains that had been binding them were released.

Wang Chong continued, "Don't worry, old village chief. I know you're afraid we're here to gain your trust and use this opportunity to find out about the whereabouts of the other villagers. Actually, our people have already used Originium Arts to explore the locations of your tunnels. Even if you block them with boulders, you just saw how easily I could smash such large rocks. Those stone doors can't stop us. If we really wanted to deal with you and those villagers who hid in the tunnels and ran towards the back mountain, we would have already done it."

"Is that so... Sigh, it seems we've truly met a benefactor this time. Please forgive our rudeness just now; we were genuinely afraid and utterly hated those guys, which is why we did such a thing."

The old village chief sighed, as if recalling some unpleasant memory, and continued, "When they first came to the village, they deceived us, saying they were miners who had escaped from the mining area. Because there were more or less people in the village who had been captured and taken to the mining area, we took them in out of empathy... But who knew that at night they would suddenly attack, burning, killing, and looting while everyone was asleep. If it weren't for the tunnel that our ancestors left behind leading to the back mountain, I'm afraid everyone in our village would have suffered this fate."

As he spoke, the old village chief choked up and said, "My son, daughter-in-law, and grandson... died at their hands without any explanation. If you kind people can help us get rid of those villains, our entire village will remember your great kindness."

As he spoke, the old village chief was about to kneel down, but Wang Chong stopped him, saying, "Old village chief, let's talk this out. Do you know exactly where those thugs are right now?"

"They are now entrenched on Xuegulu Ridge. Because there are several large villages and towns nearby, they mainly loot, plunder, and burn in those areas. Our ancestors in these nearby villages dug cellars or tunnels to avoid natural disasters. Because of this, these villains simply live here and wage a war of attrition, mainly plundering the grain we grow, and occasionally killing a few villagers who didn't have time to hide in the cellar for fun."

“We people here really can’t survive anymore. There are hardly any men left who can grow crops. We old men think we’re all too old to care for food anyway, so we might as well take a gamble. If we can kill a few thugs, it’ll be a contribution to the other villagers,” the old village chief said, his voice choked with emotion, bringing tears to the eyes of everyone in the village who heard him. A somber atmosphere settled over the entire village.

After hearing this, Froststar had reached her limit and wished she could rush to Snowgulu Ridge right now to wipe out all those who had ruined the reputation of the infected and were utterly depraved.

“Old village chief… Old village chief, please don’t worry. Are you sure they’re still on Xuegulu Ridge and haven’t gone anywhere else? Also, shouldn’t the patrol team be searching for infected people? How dare they act so recklessly here, disregarding the patrol team in this area?” Wang Chong asked.

"It shouldn't be. A few days ago, they went to the next village and looted and killed people. Because of these thugs, our villages have started exchanging information. As for the militia... those guys are notorious for bullying the weak and fearing the strong. After our village informed us about this, they first seized a large amount of our grain, and then went up the mountain in a big group. But they never came back. Later we found out that those thugs killed all the members of the militia."

The old village chief shook his head and continued, "After that, the army got involved, but after they went up the mountain, those guys disappeared without a trace, leaving the army empty-handed. When they realized they couldn't catch those thugs, they turned around and started slaughtering people from neighboring villages, using innocent villagers as laborers. Since then, we've never dared to go looking for those people again."

“Understood… Village Chief, they can’t make decisions for you, so leave this matter to our Unity Movement. We will definitely capture those traitors and use their blood to appease those innocent people who died tragically at their hands,” Wang Chong said in a deep voice.

Chapter 83 Who is Wang Chong?

On the snow-capped mountain, Froststar moved with incredible speed, almost as if she were flying. Her murderous aura was palpable; anyone could tell she was about to kill. The others followed closely behind, while Ines used Originium Arts to scout the area and guide them in the right direction.

As for Wang Chong, he spent the entire journey examining the terrain, nodding occasionally. Specter and Alina followed closely behind Wang Chong. Specter was there to fight, and the reason he brought Alina along was naturally to help her overcome her inner demons.

"There's someone watching us around the corner ahead. If we go out rashly, we'll be spotted immediately," Ines said, sensing something.

"So what if they see it? I know all about their strength anyway, they can't cause any trouble." Froststar said coldly, preparing to activate her Originium Arts, which would soon transform into a humanoid catastrophe on this snowy mountain.

"Wait, Yelena." At that moment, Wang Chong grabbed Frostnova's shoulder and held her down. Only Wang Chong's words could bring the somewhat impulsive Frostnova back to some rationality.

“Yelena, dealing with them is no problem for you. But they all know you, they all know your abilities and your name, so why would they be stupid enough to stay and fight you? Don’t forget what the old village chief said before, the Ursus army came to suppress them, but they came up empty-handed. There must be some hidden path or passage in the mountains that allows for a quick escape. If you go in like this, you’ll probably scare them away before you even kill a few. Then it won’t be so easy to find them again.”

After Wang Chong finished speaking, Shuangxing, who had been poised to attack, lost her strength. She turned around and asked, "Wang Chong, do you have any way to wipe them all out in one fell swoop?"

“Well… listen to me, we’ll do it like this…” Wang Chong explained his plan to everyone.

……

Inside the watchtower on the mountain, three infected individuals dressed in old-fashioned Reunion uniforms were shivering as they patrolled the mountain path, alert to their surroundings.

"Hiss—damn it, this damn Originium is getting more and more painful these days. Those guys sent us here, they probably just want us to die here." A soldier complained.

"Damn it, even if I'm going to die, I don't want to die in this desolate wilderness! If those lowly people weren't hiding underground and impossible to catch, I would have slaughtered them all and moved to the village long ago. Once the food ran out, I could have moved on to another place to live a carefree life. Why should I stay here on this godforsaken mountain and freeze?" another soldier said with equal resentment.

"You know, the boss is really something else, he just insists on killing everyone before he'll leave. Now we don't have enough food, and these villages aren't growing any crops anymore. What will we eat and drink? I'm afraid we'll starve to death before we even get killed by the mines... Wait? Hey, look! There are people coming over there." The third soldier said, then suddenly looked up and saw five figures braving the wind and snow as they walked up the mountain path at a bend in the road.

"Five people? Could it be those idiots from the disciplinary squad who are back again? Hmm... wait a minute, their equipment looks familiar... wait! Isn't that the uniform of the Reunion Movement?" The second soldier squinted and stared carefully, noticing that apart from the leader who was only wearing a white robe and thick clothing, the rest of them were wearing white masks and standard uniforms of ordinary soldiers of the Reunion Movement.

"What? The Reunion Movement? Didn't they head south? How come they're here in the north now?" the first soldier asked.

"Could he be one of those guys who defected from the Reunion Movement, just like us?" the second soldier asked.

"Don't ask so many questions, just test them and you'll know. Seventeen, go up and tell the people above what's going on. Eighteen and I will stay and handle it. If Eighteen doesn't come back with a message within five minutes, it means something's wrong. Immediately get the boss and the others on alert," the third soldier said in a deep voice.

"Alright, then, Sixteenth Brother, Eighteenth is your responsibility here." The soldier called Seventeenth immediately nodded in agreement and ran up the mountain. Meanwhile, the two men in the watchtower prepared their crossbows and aimed them at the men. When they were only 50 paces away, Sixteenth shouted, "Halt! Who goes there? State your name!"

"Fool! Are you blind? Since you dare to do such heinous things under our name, don't you even know who we are?" The man stopped in his tracks and angrily rebuked him.

"Are they really from the Reunion Movement?" The two soldiers naturally knew that their people were committing atrocities under the guise of the Reunion Movement. After all, many villages in this northern plain had benefited from the Reunion Movement. They could use this uniform and slogans to deceive many villages into accepting them, and then they could wait until nightfall to carry out the massacre of the villages.

Even when they sometimes disguised themselves as fleeing miners and entered the village, their leader would deliberately bring up this name to smear the village when it came time to massacre the villagers, in order to vent his anger over his time in the Reunion Movement.

"Are you from the Reunion Movement?" Eighteen asked loudly.

"That's right, I am Wang Chong, the strongest member of the Reunion Movement. Today, I happened to pass by the village below and heard you beasts committing such beastly acts in the name of Reunion! I am enraged and will take your dog lives today! If you know what's good for you, tell your orphaned, son-of-a-dog boss to come out and offer his neck for slaughter! If you appease me, I'll leave you all with a complete corpse! Otherwise, I'll chop you all up and feed you to the dogs!"

Wang Chong, with an arrogant and domineering demeanor, raised his middle finger and said.

"Shhhh-"

However, Wang Chong's arrogant words were met with two crossbow bolts. Fortunately, the two "soldiers" beside Wang Chong reacted in time, raising their shields and easily blocking the bolts.

Upon seeing this, Wang Chong laughed and said, "Hahahaha... You think this little thing can hurt me? I don't even need to lift a finger. You bunch of cowardly idiots, since you've amused me, I'll give you a chance to tip me off. Go tell your boss what I just said! Tell him I'm here waiting to take his dog's life!"

"What... what do we do? They have shields, and our crossbow bolts can't penetrate them?" Eighteen looked at Sixteen and asked.

"Since they've said that, you go and inform the boss. I'll stay here and keep watch. We'll leave everything to the boss and the others to decide," Sixteen said after a moment's thought.

"Then...then I'll go." Eighteen immediately lowered his crossbow, climbed down from the watchtower, and ran up the mountain. At that moment, Sixteen on the watchtower shouted loudly, "My men have already reported to our boss! Don't run if you have the guts! When our boss comes, he will definitely wipe you all out!"

"Hahahaha, I'm waiting for you filthy things to roll out!" Wang Chong laughed loudly.

"Wang Chong, are you sure this will work?" asked a woman's voice from one of the "soldiers" blocking the way.

"Don't worry, Yelena. As long as he reports my performance and explanation, he'll definitely let me go up the mountain. After all, if a bloodthirsty scoundrel is provoked like this by an 'unknown,' what will he do if he doesn't let me go up and torture me to death? What will he do with his reputation as the boss?"

Wang Chong smiled and continued, "Even if he surprised me and didn't let me go up the mountain, did you see that guy who went up to report the news just now? I locked onto him with the black mist at close range just now. Even if they try to escape through the secret passage, they won't be able to escape my grasp."

……

Inside the house on the mountain

"Report—!" At that moment, Eighteen rushed up in a panic. There were about 30 people sitting or standing in the house. They had all received Seventeen's message and had gathered together to discuss how to handle the situation. Unexpectedly, Eighteen came up with new information.

"Eighteen, what exactly are those guys who seem to be from the Reunion Movement? Did the Reunion Movement attack our gates?" A man with a long scar on his face, sitting in the highest position, asked in a deep voice while holding a large cleaver.

"Yes...yes! They...they are indeed from the Reunion Movement! The leader...huff...the leader claims to be the strongest member of the Reunion Movement!" Eighteen gasped for breath as he handed over the information in fits and starts.

When the title of the strongest member of the Reunion Movement was revealed, everyone's expression changed, and even the leader sitting at the head of the table trembled.

"Could it be that the leader of Talulah has come in person?"

"Idiot, I already said it's the strongest member of Reunion... that must be Patriot! Oh my god! We're doomed!"

"It could also be that woman named Froststar! I heard she can turn an entire mining area into ice shards with a wave of her hand! We're on a snowy mountain right now, what if she just waves her hand and we're all turned into ice sculptures?!"

"Quiet! Quiet!"

Hearing the fear and dread of the infected around them, even the leader's attempts to urge them to be quiet were somewhat weak. After all, they had all witnessed the terrifying power of the three strongest members of the Reunion Movement.

"The only thing we can do now is pack our things and leave through the secret passage," the leader said with a grim face.

“Wait…wait! Boss! It’s not Talulah! Nor Patriot or Frostnova.” Eighteen finally caught his breath and stood up straight, saying, “The man said his name was Wang Chong, and he looked like a young man under 20.”

"What? Wang Chong? Who the hell is Wang Chong?"
