I Have A City In An Alternate World

2033 Keep moving forward (1)

When the long-haired monster’s killing blow came, it was Tang Zhen who saved the dwarf from death.

If he had been just a little slower, the dwarf would have been torn to pieces by the long-haired monster or his head would have been gnawed off.

Having escaped death once again, the dwarf heaved a sigh of relief, but he felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

This place was truly dangerous, and it made him feel as if his strength was not following his heart. If he was not by Tang Zhen’s side, it would be difficult for him to even take a single step.

As expected, following a wise master was the right choice. At least, his chances of survival would increase greatly.

Although the risk would also increase, some sacrifices were inevitable in order to end this terrible life.

Moreover, they had already mentally prepared themselves the moment they chose to follow Tang Zhen. They would die without any regrets.

As he lamented in his heart, the dwarf retreated to the side and pulled out the few arms that were stuck in the body of the puppet.

The dwarf glared at the beheaded long-haired monster with hatred. He sat down cross-legged and grabbed the messy corpse pieces and began to devour them.

The physical puppet was severely injured. It had to devour flesh and blood as soon as possible to recover so as not to affect the upcoming battle.

Xiao Wu and the others saw the long-haired monster was killed, and also hurriedly treated their injuries, in order to deal with the next monster attack.

The crisis on the battlefield was coming at any time. Once he had the time, he had to recover to his best condition as soon as possible to increase his chances of survival.

Although the crisis had not been resolved, Tang Zhen’s expression had become much more relaxed.

After killing two monsters in a row, he was even more certain that these ferocious-looking monsters were not much of a threat to him.

Under the watch of powerful enemies, it was not easy to do this.

Since that was the case, he could only wait for the monsters to come and clear them one by one.

After dawn, he would leave this place and follow the road to the Urban area.

Tang Zhen wanted to barge into the place that was regarded as a Dragon’s pool or a Tiger’s Den by other despairing people. He wanted to see if he could find more useful clues.

Perhaps it was because they were shocked by Tang Zhen’s decisive killing, the surrounding monsters hesitated for a moment before slowly turning around and leaving.

Obviously, these monsters knew that they had no fate with the pile of food in front of them, so they naturally could not continue to waste time.

All of them possessed decent intelligence. After witnessing Tang Zhen’s methods, they were already clear of his strength.

Knowing that they would die if they rushed forward, they naturally dodged as far away as possible to avoid meaningless sacrifices.

Therefore, the relationship between a despaired person and a monster was not like that of a Hunter and a prey. The key was still to see how strong one was.

If they all had Tang Zhen’s methods, then those who felt that they could not live any longer would perhaps become these monsters.

Tang Zhen waited for a long time. When he saw that the monster did not continue to approach him to probe, he gently shook his head. He found a stone by the roadside and slowly sat down.

It was good that the monsters didn’t take the initiative to look for trouble, but it was still early in the morning, so he couldn’t let his guard down.

The dwarf and the others had the same thought. While they were excited, they were still looking around, wary of any monsters that might suddenly approach.

Low-level monsters were all brainless idiots. They were only driven by the desire to kill and didn’t care how powerful their enemies were.

Just as they had expected, the low-level insect-like monsters continued to harass them.

Fortunately, these monsters were not strong and did not cause much damage to the group. The dwarf even deliberately released a wave of monsters into the cave, causing a commotion.

When those desperators heard the commotion outside, they thought that they didn’t need to participate in the battle. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, a large group of monsters would kill their way in?

Fortunately, they were prepared. The moment the monsters charged in, desperator immediately raised his sword and attacked, killing all the monsters.

Although the desperators knew that these monsters were probably released on purpose, no one said anything.

The dwarf and the others outside the cave had suffered the first wave of attacks, and the danger level was far higher than them.

Under such circumstances, it was only right for them to share some of the attack.

No one owed them anything. Whether it was Tang Zhen or the dwarf, they had no obligation to help them block the monsters.

As time passed, more and more monsters were killed. Fortunately, they were all small-fry monsters, so they did not pose much of a threat to the despaired.

Dawn finally arrived.

The monsters that were wandering around all let out gloomy roars and reluctantly entered the forest by the roadside.

It was obvious that they had to follow a certain rule. After dawn, they had to stay away from the road.

After a night of killing, everyone heaved a long sigh of relief and felt exhausted.

The horned helmet and his men were used to it, because they had spent almost every night like this in the past.

Of course, it was rare to encounter such an intense battle like last night. If he was really unlucky, it would be up to luck to survive.

“Let’s go outside and take a look!” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net

The night’s fighting did not stop, and it was even more so outside. It was obvious that the dwarf and the others had been guarding outside the cave the whole time.

The horned helmet secretly sighed in his heart. If it wasn’t for Tang Zhen and the others, the cave would’ve encountered an even fiercer attack. He didn’t know if they would’ve been able to last until dawn.

When they walked out of the cave and saw the scene outside, everyone sucked in a cold breath at the same time.

The ground around the cave entrance was piled with the corpses of all kinds of monsters. It was as shocking as a small mountain.

They had thought that they had killed enough monsters and were strong enough, but compared to the monsters killed at the entrance of the cave, the ones they had killed were just fish that had escaped the net.

Seeing this tragic scene, the horned helmet and the others felt cold sweat all over their bodies. They really couldn’t imagine the scene of these monsters coming in groups?

If it wasn’t for the presence of Tang Zhen and the others, which blocked most of the monsters, their corpses would have already turned cold.

“That’s right, where did Sir Tang Zhen go?”

A despaired person suddenly shouted. At the same time, he raised his head and looked around, trying to find traces of him.

...

“Don’t look for him anymore, he must have left.”

Another despaired person said. There was a faint sense of loss in his tone.

why did you leave without a word? why didn’t you call us? ”

Some of the despaired people were unwilling to accept this and said gloomily.

“Why should I bring you along? You made your choice last night, but as followers, you cowered in the face of battle. What’s the use of you?”

Another person spoke, his tone filled with coldness.

“But he said that he didn’t need us to follow him.”

if there are people following him, did Sir Tang Zhen refuse? in the end, it still depends on our attitude.

“You can see so clearly, why don’t you follow?”

“I know what I’m capable of. The road ahead is too dangerous. It’s better to stay here obediently and muddle along for as long as I can.”

The despaired people discussed in hushed voices, while the horned helmet looked at the road ahead with a hint of emotion on his face.

Tang Zhen and them were destined to not be on the same side. Hence, they had a brief contact before going their separate ways.

“I hope they can have a safe journey. Compared to us, they are the true warriors!”

The horned helmet sighed, and then he told everyone to get ready. They were going to collect the ransom and move to the new shelter.

As long as he wanted to live, he had to repeat this kind of life until death came.
