To the Pyro Company and the barbarians, the battlefield at Mt. Dashi was originally a battlefield where both sides fought. But due to the arrival of two people, the battle situation had suddenly become confusing.
It was not only P5092 who was curious about Ren Xiaosu's true identity. Even the barbarians were a little bewildered. Their casualties had suddenly increased in the past two days, and what they could not accept the most was that the deaths of their comrades were all meaningless deaths.
Without exception, these barbarians were all killed in a sneak attack.
Some were shot to death in the dark, while others were stabbed to death in unexpected places. To be honest, the entire expeditionary army had never fought such a vexing battle before. They did not even know where the enemy was, yet so many of their people had already been killed.
In the darkness of the night, a five-man team of barbarians was advancing northward in the forest. They had discovered that all directions had been sealed off by the Pyro Company's main forces. A large number of troops were stationed there, and they had even built temporary fortifications.
Under P5092's command, this main force was gradually forcing the barbarians northward. Other than retreating to Longtan Canyon, it seemed like the barbarians had no other choice.
The five-man team of barbarians advanced in silence. They traveled in a straight line through the forest, and no one spoke during this time.
However, they were not advancing very fast. That was because they still had to clear their tracks as they moved to avoid being discovered and tracked by the Pyro Company troops behind them.
But as they walked, the corporal at the front suddenly turned around and was surprised to see there were only four people left in the group!
The corporal stood still and turned around with his axe in hand. He asked coldly, "Where did Valery go?"
Only then did the others turn around and realize their companion, Valery, had disappeared without a trace. During this time, they did not even hear Valery leave the group!
The corporal asked the barbarian who was fourth in the group, "Gennady, where did Valery go? He's been following you all this time. Didn't you notice he left the group? "
When he said that, the others were also puzzled. They had maintained a distance of about three meters between each of them as they advanced. It might make sense if the people in front did not hear anything, but Gennady definitely knew where Valery had gone, right?
However, Gennady did not answer the question. He just continued walking forward, and his walking posture … was a little stiff.
The moonlight shone through the branches and leaves of the forest and onto everyone. It was mottled like ice, and Gennady's strange walking posture made the scalps of the other two people tingle.
As Gennady walked, there was a dripping sound as though a sticky liquid was falling onto the rotten leaves on the ground.
The squad leader suddenly raised his axe and pointed it at Gennady. "Stop! Don't get any closer! Otherwise, I'll kill you right now!"
The remaining people also realized something was wrong. They raised their axes and were on high alert, but it was too late!
In an instant, a young man carrying a black saber suddenly appeared behind Gennady. The young man even had a smile on his face.
When he flashed out, Gennady's strong body no longer had the strength to support itself. It fell straight to the side. It was only then that the barbarians realized that Gennady's eyes had been closed all this while. It was just that the mottled shadows of the trees prevented them from seeing clearly!
Gennady was long dead, and the dripping sound was the sound of blood falling to the ground!
There was no time to think. The young man in the forest had already swung his sword. The barbarian, who bore the brunt of the attack, raised his axe to block the black sword shadow. He had even thought of how to kill the enemy in front of him.
To them, killing their enemies was never a particularly difficult thing. All they needed to do was to crush their enemies with brute force.
However, a scene that astounded Barbarian Zi occurred. When the black saber image flashed past the axe, the axe that was made of unknown metal was actually slashed into two, and it wasn't even able to stop the blade for a moment!
Ren Xiaosu did not stop in front of this person. Before the shadow of the knife stopped, he had already brushed past this person. It was as if he was faster than the knife.
After that, the next person could only watch as his comrade was cut in half. Before he could think, Ren Xiaosu had already appeared in front of him.
The remaining two barbarians had seen the sharpness of the black saber with their own eyes, so they would not foolishly use their axes to hack at it. After all, the axes of the expeditionary army were all made of alloy. Who would have thought that these axes, which had always been successful, would be cut like tofu?
In a flash, they realized that the inexplicable and tragic deaths of their companions over the past two days were probably the work of the young man in front of them.
Thinking of this, the two barbarians roared and charged forward side by side. The shadows in the forest kept swaying, but suddenly, their vision blurred, and Ren Xiaosu's figure disappeared from in front of them.
Fast! Too fast!
This thought flashed through the minds of the two barbarians at the same time!
By the time they reacted, Ren Xiaosu had already stepped to their left.
As the young man stepped on the decaying leaves, the layers of decaying leaves that had accumulated for an unknown number of years suddenly exploded under the tremendous force of his footsteps. They flew around Ren Xiaosu like crows!
The barbarian on the left instinctively swung his axe, but halfway through his swing, he realized that he could no longer swing it!
At this moment, he was horrified to find that the young man had grabbed the handle of his axe from the middle and forcefully snatched it away!
The barbarian did not want to let go, but a huge force came from the handle of the axe. With a casual wave of his hand, the young man had thrown him along with the axe!
The barbarian had no choice but to let go of the axe, and his whole body was sent flying.
Ren Xiaosu weighed the axe in his hand and muttered, "I just wanted to collect some axes to play with, but I didn't expect to have such a tight grip!"
Now, his physical fitness had reached an astonishing 16.5 and 16.1. These barbarians weighed only 150 kilograms, so it was as easy as playing with a toy.
As he spoke, the barbarian who had been thrown slammed into a tree at the waist. The intense pain in his waist nearly caused him to go into shock. With a crisp crack, the barbarian's lumbar vertebra cracked from the impact. Even the thick tree trunk let out a cracking sound, unable to bear the heavy load. The plant fibers snapped one by one under the impact.
The decarch was the last person. When he saw that Ren Xiaosu's strength was not something he could handle, he turned around and ran.
But Ren Xiaosu raised his hand and threw the axe in his hand. The axe made a buzzing sound as it flew through the air, as if the air was being pushed to the sides.
Before the decarch could run more than ten meters, the axe had already cut into his back. Even his spine had been split open!
Ren Xiaosu walked over and picked up the two axes. He looked at the axes, which were more than a meter long, and said with a sigh, "This is the 32nd axe."
Over the past two days, Ren Xiaosu had suddenly become interested in the barbarian's axes. He did not know what material the axes were made of, but he felt that they were comparable to the nanoswords he had seen before.
Although he did not know what use he had for them, he had the black saber that he had no use for.
But the process of stealing other people's things and then saving them up was still very enjoyable.
