Assessment Area Weirdo (Midnight Begging for Flowers!)
"Hey, did you hear? There's a weirdo in our assessment area."
"Weirdo? What weirdo? "
"This person has always been a loner, shuttling through our assessment area and killing any beasts he sees. No matter how many beasts there are, no matter how strong they are, he kills them on sight. "
"This … can't be considered weird, right?"
"That's not all. Many teams want to recruit him, but this person refuses to join any of them. And it's said that many people who have designs on him have all died under his sword. "
"This … can't be considered weird, right?"
"The problem is, he has killed many people, but he hasn't been punished by the All-Knowing Temple. What's weird is that he only kills those who provoke him. Even if others see him kill, he doesn't silence them. Isn't this giving others a chance to sue him? Can't this be considered weird? "
"This … is indeed a little weird."
"That's right. I really don't know who he is, to be able to kill so many people and come out unscathed. Being a loner and being able to survive in the assessment area for a few years, he's quite experienced. "
… …
It wasn't known who was the first to mention the weirdo, but gradually, the topic of the weirdo appeared in the assessment area. And this discussion continued to grow, fermenting more and more.
So, in a short period of time, the assessment area was in an uproar.
In the assessment area, most of the people were adventuring in groups. There were very, very few lone wolves.
Even those who had the confidence to become a one-star All Knowing Expert would form a team and enter the assessment area.
Being a lone ranger was already a strange behavior.
Assessment area, somewhere.
Nine men were sitting on the ground, resting and drinking.
"Hey, Leng Ying, did you hear about the weirdo in our assessment area? Don't you think that weirdo is the newbie you humiliated before? "
Leng Ying snorted with a cold expression, "So what if it's that kid? He just got lucky. A weirdo in the assessment area? Heh heh, I think he'll be a dead man soon. "
"That's right. He's just a newbie, how strong can he be? Without the protection of strength, if one were to rely solely on luck, there would be a time when it would run out. Once he runs out of luck, it'll be the time of his death, "Liang Shu said with disdain.
Recently, they had heard quite a lot about the strange person in the assessment area. After a comprehensive analysis, they easily came to a conclusion. The strange person in the assessment area who was being talked about should be the newcomer that they had wanted to invite into their team but had been rejected.
Leng Ying and the others had thought that this guy had died in the Dark Forest, but they hadn't expected him to still be alive.
It had already been three years. Who would have thought that he would still be alive? It was quite a miracle.
Moreover, not only was this kid still alive, but he also had a good reputation, which was widely spread in the assessment area.
The name of the weirdo in the assessment area spread like wildfire. This made Leng Ying and the others very unhappy.
The brat that they had never taken seriously had actually made such a name for himself?
This was especially true for Leng Ying and Liang Shu. Back then, they had been very disdainful and had led the opposition. Only then had Qin Xiao been kicked out of the team.
"Leng Ying, Liang Shu, don't talk like that. Actually, I think that brother Qin Xiao is quite a good person. It's just that his personality is a bit cold, a bit taciturn, and a bit unyielding, "said the fatty.
However, as soon as he said that, he received cold glances from Leng Ying and Liang Shu.
Leng Ying, in particular, looked very unhappy as he said to the fatty, "If you think he's so good, then you might as well go find him and form a two-man team with him."
"I …" For a moment, the fatty was at a loss for words. He didn't know how to respond.
Leng Ying choked the fatty, but he still hadn't vented his anger. He coldly snorted and said, "Brat, you better not let me see you. Otherwise, I'll definitely make you suffer. What bullshit lone ranger? What bullshit assessment area weirdo? It's just a false reputation. There's no real content. "
"Brat, you better pray that you don't run into us. Otherwise, I'll make you cry rhythmically."
The tall and sturdy cloaked man suddenly raised his hand, indicating for everyone to quiet down.
Seeing the captain's gesture, everyone immediately quieted down. They looked around vigilantly, ready to fight.
However, the surroundings were very quiet. There was no movement at all.
Everyone looked at the captain with puzzlement.
The tall and sturdy cloaked man frowned slightly. His expression was somewhat solemn as he said, "You all didn't notice anything wrong?"
Was there something wrong?
No, the surroundings were very normal. The wind was very calm, and there weren't any vicious beasts roaming around. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so quiet.
Moreover, if vicious beasts roamed around, there would be a vicious beast's aura. If there was an aura, they should have noticed it long ago.
If they didn't notice it, then there shouldn't be any.
The tall and sturdy cloaked man said seriously, "It's very quiet. It's so quiet that it's a bit unusual. It's so quiet that it's a bit strange. Moreover, just now, I heard a trace of movement coming from underground. However, I couldn't hear it now. Didn't you all hear it? "
Everyone looked at each other in dismay and shook their heads, indicating that they really didn't hear it.
However, after hearing the tall and sturdy cloaked man's words, everyone felt that the captain's words weren't groundless. He must have noticed something.
All kinds of complicated situations could happen in the assessment area. Thus, they didn't dare to be careless. Perhaps, there really was something that they didn't notice.
The fat boy directly laid on the ground and pressed his ear to the ground, listening to the movements underground.
After listening for a while, the fat boy's expression changed drastically.
"Little Fatty, what did you hear?" A man asked anxiously.
The fat boy was startled for a moment before saying, "Sounds. There are many sounds underground. There are things underground. There are many of them. It's dangerous. Let's run! "
Hearing the fat boy's words, everyone was also surprised.
The tall and sturdy cloaked man pondered for a moment and his expression changed drastically. "Not good. It's a fire scorpion. Let's run, run!"
Fire scorpion?
Hearing those words, the crowd was truly frightened. One by one, their expressions changed greatly. Not daring to hesitate, they immediately started running.
The nine of them didn't hesitate at all and chose to run. They didn't even have the courage to fight.
However, the moment the nine of them moved, the movements in the surroundings suddenly became louder and exploded.
Break! Break! Break!
Streaks of fiery-red things flew out from the ground. They weren't too big, only about five feet in length. However, each of them looked abnormally ferocious. Their entire bodies seemed to be bathed in raging flames.
They were extremely fast. The moment they flew out, they charged towards the nine people.
Moreover, there were more of them in all directions. They surrounded the nine people.
One by one, they came out. There were so many of them that they couldn't count them all at once. In an instant, they completely enveloped the area within a radius of ten thousand feet. There were hundreds and thousands of them.
Just looking at them was enough to frighten people.
The fire scorpion was a kind of terrifying first-grade ferocious beast. It was highly toxic in itself, and it was also very aggressive.
Moreover, the fire scorpion liked to hide underground. Thus, it was very good at hiding. When it walked on the ground, it almost didn't make any movements. Thus, it was often able to launch a surprise attack and kill people invisibly.
The fire scorpion liked to use sneak attacks. Generally, very few people who were targeted by the fire scorpion survived.
Moreover, the fire scorpion was a ferocious beast that lived in groups. They were often together in large groups.
Generally, there would be about twenty of them in a group. A slightly larger group could exceed fifty, and an extremely large group could reach as many as a hundred.
With hundreds and thousands of fire scorpion like this, it was simply a powerful fire scorpion army.
When encountering such a force, even a one-star all-knowing would feel their scalp go numb and their heart tremble. They would quickly flee for their lives.
Moreover, the nine people here hadn't become a one-star all-knowing.
Therefore, when facing this huge fire scorpion army, everyone's expression turned pale. They could smell the scent of death and fell into a desperate situation.
"It's over, it's over. We're all going to die here today."
"Why are we so unlucky? To actually encounter such a huge fire scorpion army. What kind of bad luck is this? "
"What's the use of saying this now? Let's think of a way to escape. I don't want to die here. "
"Escape? How to escape? Who doesn't want to escape? But look at the situation. Can we escape? There are so many fire scorpion. It's enough to eat all of us up. "
"Then what should we do? We're not all going to die here, right? "
"We can only fight. What else can we do?"
Everyone looked at the leader. The burly cloaked man's expression was also incomparably solemn. He also had a bitter and helpless look on his face.
He thought for a while, but still shook his head and said, "I also don't have a way to solve the situation in front of us. Sigh, we can only blame our bad luck. There's no other way. Brothers, at this point, it's useless to say a thousand times. We definitely won't allow ourselves to be captured without putting up a fight. "
"Therefore, we can only fight with our lives on the line. If we're lucky, maybe some of us can survive this. If not, then we'll all die here. "
"This is an unsolvable situation. Kill!"
Kill?
How could they kill?
It was a completely incomparable disparity. It felt like the difference between heaven and earth.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
Without waiting for these people to hesitate, the fire scorpion took the initiative to launch an attack. They all tore open their metal jaws and charged at these people.
The fire scorpion's methods were not limited to its poison. There were also the terrifying flames on its body and its metal jaws that could bite through everything.
These three methods were the terrifying aspects of the fire scorpion.
If there were only a few of them, then they could still deal with them. However, facing so many fire scorpion, it was impossible to deal with them.
"Don't just stand there. If you don't want to die so quickly, then hurry up and do it. Even if we die, we can't die in such a cowardly manner. "The burly cloaked man could not help but shout when he saw that everyone was still in a daze. Then, he took the lead to charge out and faced the fire scorpion army that was roaring with killing intent.
