The young man took the ruby ​​off the wall from the groove in the stone slab and put it in the inside pocket of his jacket.

"Okay, what's your name?"

"Icarus."

------------

Crete, outside the ruins of the palace of Knossos.

Wenban crouched behind a collapsed stone pillar, a selfie stick tilted in his hand, the lens pointed at the entrance to the ruins in the distance, which had been surrounded by the Greek military several times.

He had actually wanted to show the live stream the legendary extraordinary ruins, but as soon as he entered, he found that the place seemed to be another space, and the network signal disappeared instantly after entering.

After thinking it over, he realized that since he had already obtained extraordinary inheritance, there was no need to take this risk.

He quickly retreated.

[Hey streamer, what did you see when you went in? Don't hide anything good from the brothers!]

"Do you think I'm a god? I was inside for no more than 30 seconds!"

boom.

Suddenly he heard the ground shake.

Wenban quickly found a hiding place and peeked out from behind a stone pillar.

A very thick slash came from the ground and cleaved upwards.

Hey.

A Greek military armed helicopter that was hovering at low altitude was slashed head-on.

The fuselage broke in two in mid-air, and rotor fragments, wreathed in flames, scattered toward the ruins.

Boom!

Immediately afterwards, all the Apache helicopters circling in the sky opened fire simultaneously, and the missiles, trailing white smoke, poured down on the figure on the ground.

The explosion sent flames soaring into the sky, illuminating the world that was rather dim due to the solar eclipse.

Smoke filled the air.

buzzing.

The next moment, the terrifying wind pressure instantly dispersed the smoke.

The bull's horns rose from the smoke, a golden double-headed axe rested on its shoulder, its body riddled with holes, and the flesh beneath its body was a bloody mess from the bombardment of various bullets.

Wen Ban stared at the horned figure carrying a golden axe emerging from the smoke, and finally breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing that the other party was not as powerful as he had imagined.

[The Minotaur seems to be of average strength this time.]

[Are we seeing the official team win for the first time thanks to streamers?!]

Hmm, this seems a bit difficult.

Wen Ban stared at the comments for a moment, then turned his gaze forward. He saw a faint green glow emanating from the minotaur's body.

Then, as if time had reversed, countless flesh and blood climbed and intertwined upwards, restoring the body to its original state.

Then, the other person sniffed and exhaled a visible puff of white vapor.

His facial expression became increasingly excited.

[Oh no, could this guy be immortal like some of the monsters we've encountered before?]

[And this guy seems a bit aggressive.]

"Alright. I was just thinking about how to go inside the ruins and broadcast a video. Now the monsters have come knocking on our door."

"And speaking of which, this seems to be the third time I've encountered a minotaur."

"Isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence?"

Is it possible that you've encountered quite a few non-Nutrifurt people as well?

"Moderator! Please handle the comments!"

Chapter 119 An Unexpected Gain

"This is unbelievable. This is the first time I've encountered a supernatural event, and I've already run into such a troublesome enemy."

Greek Defense Minister Nikos had arrived at the Athens command post. He sat in a chair, watching the minotaurs battling the authorities on the screen above. He had already confirmed the minotaurs' level during the previous verification by the Supernatural Council.

The suggestion is to launch an attack by overwhelming the enemy with massive firepower; in short, it's time to wear them down.

That's what they say.

Nikos stared at the minotaur before him, his golden double-headed axe dragging on the ground, glaring menacingly at the helicopter in the sky. With each step he took, the reflection of the axe blades shimmered.

The Greek Army's 3rd Armored Brigade has already advanced, and two mechanized infantry companies have been deployed to flank the hill from both sides.

"Currently, the heaviest firepower we can directly deploy is the batch of Apache helicopters temporarily deployed in Heraklion Port. The Tauren are still in open areas, so we'll push them all in before they enter the residential areas."

Then I heard the sounds from the front lines.

"Sir, the attack helicopters are currently fully loaded."

"Fire!"

On the screen, numerous armed helicopters flew low over the port, and missiles trailed white smoke as they hurtled towards the hills.

However, faced with countless attacks, the Tauren made an unexpected choice.

The opponent possessed a terrifying speed that did not match the strength of his muscles.

After a barrage of missiles attacked the enemy, the enemy realized the threat and began to dodge and maneuver using their speed. At the same time, they used their double-headed axes to unleash a series of sword storms in response to the attack from the sky.

A few attacks struck his body, leaving it riddled with holes, but with a flash of green light, his body instantly returned to normal.

Simple and straightforward numerical values.

Nikos broke out in a cold sweat as he looked at the monster in front of him.

Strength, speed, and recovery ability, plus decent dual-end output in both melee and ranged combat.

It's important to understand that this was only because they were constantly using air power to contain the enemy; otherwise, if the troops were to engage in direct combat, the enemy would likely be able to break through the lines immediately due to their speed.

"They're monsters born for battle."

Suddenly, he heard his assistant's excited voice.

"Sir, the local who went into the maze earlier has come out. According to him, he obtained a clue to eliminate the minotaurs in the maze, but he needs us to trade one hundred million US dollars."

Nikos was slightly taken aback after hearing this, then his face lit up with excitement.

He didn't expect this local to offer such a low price.

Keep in mind that an Apache helicopter costs nearly $2000 million!

If the United States could obtain this level of information at this price every time, they would be overjoyed.

After all, considering the losses, even a tenfold increase in price wouldn't be unreasonable.

"Give it to him! Give it all to him!!!"

------------

A temporary command post of the Greek military on the outskirts of Knossos.

"Now that you've seen our sincerity, what's the answer, Mr. Jack?"

Young Jack had just emerged from the maze when he was brought over by two military police. Before him stood the frontline commander, who looked at him with obvious excitement.

"The labyrinth is tied to the Minotaur. If the sacred fire is brought here, the labyrinth will be burned down, and the Minotaur will be destroyed in the process."

Seeing that the frontline commander, who had received the news as if it were a priceless treasure, had begun contacting his superiors, Jack breathed a sigh of relief, and even the ruby ​​in his arms no longer felt so hot to hold.

Hope this helps, Mr. Icarus.

----------------

"Hey kid, I can't believe you dared to go into that godforsaken place alone."

Inside the military's off-road vehicle, the driver looked at Jack, who had already gotten out, with envy. After all, the other man had earned enough money to last a lifetime with just one message.

Seeing Jack reunited with his family, the driver nodded, said goodbye, and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he sighed.

"Goodbye, lucky lad. To be honest, things are getting more and more dangerous now. After this incident, I'm going home to get married!"

On the other side, Jack, holding the ruby ​​in his hand, excitedly placed his hand on his sister's wheelchair. Just as he was about to share the good news with her, he suddenly heard his sister's sharp warning voice:

"Oh no, brother, get out of here!"

Meanwhile, on a distant hill, the minotaur was hit in the knee by a series of armor-piercing rounds from ground troops, causing him to stagger to the side.

It steadied itself and swung its double-headed axe horizontally toward the harbor.

After regaining its footing, it swept its blade westward in a fit of rage.

The sword energy shifted at an angle, slashing diagonally towards the seawall.

Before Jack could react, he heard a loud explosion behind him.

He instinctively turned around and discovered that the jeep that had taken him there had exploded.

Then he discovered that the attack was still hurtling towards him.

His eyes widened instantly, and without hesitation, he shoved his sister and the wheelchair forward.

The attack came in the next moment.

tear.

"Ahhhh!!!!"

He looked down at his legs.

The sword energy passed horizontally below his knees, cleanly slicing his legs apart from the middle of his calves.

He fell to the ground, and the blood from his broken wound stained the rubble beneath him a deep red.

Jack instantly turned into

木古

灬儿

Looking at his legs, Jack broke out in a cold sweat.

Just as I was about to say something, a warm feeling came from my chest.

Could it be that...?

Suddenly he felt his legs stick together again.

Moreover, there seemed to be a strange power gathering in my legs.

He took a moment to feel it and discovered that his legs could bend like springs.

His eyes widened in an instant.

What's the principle behind this?

----------

"Hey buddy, time to play cat's cradle."

The minotaur retrieved the double-headed axe and carried it back on his shoulder.

Whoosh.

A very fine thread wrapped around its right arm from the side.

The silk threads tightened, and the minotaur's right arm was suddenly pulled to the side.

Pakko stood on the pile of rubble, a jackal mask on his face, the thread on his right wrist stretched taut.

The minotaur sniffed in the direction of Pakko, then his eyes widened instantly, turning blood red as he looked at the other man.

It didn't know why, but even though it was the first time they met, it felt a surge of anger in its heart upon seeing the other person.

It yanked its right arm out of the wire mesh, and an Apache helicopter fired a burst of machine gun fire at its shoulder from the flank.

But it still withstood the barrage of bullets, raising its double-headed axe above its head and slashing it fiercely towards Pacco.
