"Ah~ What are you doing?" A slightly puzzled shout suddenly came, pulling Jiong Wushuang back to reality from his excitement. His heart tightened as he quickly glanced in the direction of the sound.
He saw a patrol team approaching from nearby, dressed in uniform attire and walking briskly. Each of them had a serious expression and held weapons in their hands, clearly attracted by the intense fight between Jiong Wushuang and a common monster that had just ended.
Jiong Wushuang inwardly groaned, how unlucky! Why did this have to happen now? Early or late, but it happened at this critical moment. If these patrol soldiers discovered him fighting with a monster on his own, they would definitely interrogate and cause trouble. Thinking about it, he instinctively moved aside, trying to find a place to hide first. However, the surroundings were empty, leaving nowhere to hide. As the patrol team got closer, beads of sweat began to form on Jiong Wushuang's forehead.
Oh dear! What can I do now? How should I handle this situation? The current situation was really frustrating and confusing, as if he was trapped in an inescapable dilemma. He was extremely anxious, but his mind felt tangled like a ball of string, unable to sort out anything. I wish there could be a sudden flash of inspiration to help me solve this problem! But right now, that life-saving inspiration seemed lost in the fog, never to be found...
Well then! As the saying goes, "When the army comes, the general will defend; when water comes, earth will block it." No matter how dangerous the situation may be, what can I do? Anyway, I have the Invincible Divine Skill protecting my body, so I doubt it will end up taking my life. With this thought, Jiong Wushuang's heart calmed down slightly and he stopped running around, instead choosing to stay quietly where he was, waiting for those who would soon come to arrest him.
Not long after, five figures approached quickly. They wore uniform patrol uniforms and walked in unison. In no time, they arrived in front of Jiong Wushuang.
The leader of the soldiers had a sharp gaze and loudly asked, "What are you doing here? Look at your appearance; you're neither one of our officials nor wearing prison clothes. Quickly tell the truth! Are you newly imprisoned or trying to escape? And what about that intense fight just now—was it caused by you?"
As he spoke, the other four soldiers also gathered around Jiong Wushuang, their weapons flashing coldly, making the atmosphere tense.
Jiong Wushuang smiled and bowed repeatedly towards the officials before him, muttering, "Oh dear! Officials, I'm new here and don't know my way around at all! I didn't mean to walk over here like this! Please forgive me for any offense. I hope you officials will be magnanimous and not hold it against me!" He carefully watched them, thinking it was better not to make things worse.
**Snap! Snap!**
A clear and loud crackle of a whip echoed through the air, reverberating in this oppressive space.
"Hmph~ Who are you talking to? Get over there and put on your prison clothes and work properly!" An angry voice rang out. A burly man with a face full of facial hair swung his long whip and struck Jiong Wushuang's frail body hard.
How could Jiong Wushuang have endured such humiliation before! He cursed inwardly: "Damn it! It's only been two days since I crossed over to this damned place, and already I've been beaten up!"
Fortunately, there was always a way out for someone in need. Thanks to the Invincible Divine Skill protecting his body, he might still be able to survive. Thinking about it made him secretly grateful but also filled with hatred towards those who always resorted to violence.
"Go to hell." Anger surged from his heart as he cursed and swung his fist at the seemingly weak person's face.
**Crack! Thud~**
With a clear and chilling sound, the head of that originally very thin person flew off like a ripe watermelon. The head rolled through the air with streaks of blood and brain matter before landing heavily on the ground with a thud.
The body without its head support then fell backward stiffly like a spineless creature until it lay on the cold ground in an eerie posture. Blood spurted from the severed neck and quickly stained the surrounding land red, forming a shocking pool of blood. The air was thick with the stench of blood, as if a nightmare had just unfolded here.
The other four people were stunned by this sudden turn of events. After a moment of shock, they immediately regained their composure and rushed toward Jiong Wushuang. Jiong Wushuang sneered and thought it was a good opportunity to test how powerful his Invincible Divine Skill was. He moved swiftly and easily dodged one attacker's attack before striking another with a palm across their back. The person flew away like a kite cut loose.
Seeing this, the remaining three exchanged glances and surrounded Jiong Wushuang from three directions. Jiong Wushuang remained calm, moving his feet nimbly like a ghost. Seizing an opportunity, he kicked the abdomen of one person on the left side and then sidestepped to collide with another on the right side. At this moment, the person in the middle charged forward with a knife. Jiong Wushuang reached out and grabbed the blade, twisting it forcefully to take control of the knife before swinging it across the neck of that person.
The burly man saw this as an opportunity to run away but Jiong Wushuang wouldn't let him get away. He threw the knife at him, hitting him in the back. The man fell dead. Standing amidst the chaos, Jiong Wushuang spat on the ground and said, "Hmph, see who dares bully me."
**Ding! Congratulations host on defeating 5 patrolling soldiers in the military region. You have collected 5 ordinary weapons. Collecting corpses and weapons will earn you 550 exchange points. Do you want to collect them? Yes? No?**
At this moment, the system's voice sounded. Without hesitation, Jiong Wushuang chose "Yes". Ten beams of light flashed past as five bodies vanished instantly. Jiong Wushuang opened his system interface to check his attributes and found he now had 650 exchange points.
Just then, he heard hoofbeats approaching from afar. Looking up, he saw a group of silver-armored soldiers galloping towards him. They seemed much more formidable than the previous patrol soldiers. Jiong Wushuang secretly rejoiced; these free exchange points couldn't be missed.
He stretched his limbs and prepared for battle. As the soldiers drew near, Jiong Wushuang roared and charged forward. However, these soldiers were well-trained and worked together seamlessly, making it difficult for Jiong Wushuang to break through their defenses temporarily.
