In Su Hao’s view, this armed girl possessed extraordinary strength, and her combat ability was quite good. Dealing with just a dozen or so monsters should be a piece of cake.
After all, even he, just an ordinary person, could easily stab these monsters to death with a steel fork in just two or three moves!
After killing a few monsters, the armed girl was quickly surrounded by monsters from all directions. One of the monsters bit onto the steel gauntlet on her left hand with its ferocious big mouth.
“Ding~ Click~”
With a tender shout, a large number of steel spikes emerged from the gauntlet, piercing through that monster thoroughly, and she jumped back.
As a monster pounced from in front of her, the spear in her right hand thrust out, piercing the neck of that monster.
She agilely leaped again, avoiding the monsters biting at her ankles from left and right. Taking advantage of the eaves, she landed back, crushing one with her foot.
Su Hao exclaimed, “Impressive! What are those steel spikes, and how do they appear out of thin air? How are the gauntlets made? How can such a delicate girl coordinate with such heavy armor? Is it some special power? I’m getting more and more curious!”
The more curious Su Hao became, the better he hid, not moving a muscle.
Since others were using this method to evade the monsters, there must be a reason. Following suit couldn’t be wrong; after all, he considered his learning ability to be decent.
As for rushing up and fighting alongside the beautiful girl?
No way! If he had the strength of his previous life, he wouldn’t mind destroying these eerie monsters effortlessly, but now he was just a weak and helpless ordinary person!
Dealing with those five monsters earlier had already drained a lot of his energy.
Even though the girl kept glancing at him with hopeful eyes, Su Hao wouldn’t change his determination to hide.
In fact, Su Hao didn’t need to be a hero. The girl quickly cleared out these monsters with just a fist and a spear.
However, she seemed exhausted, panting heavily. Then, following the undulating ground, she walked over to Su Hao with furrowed brows, angrily saying, “%￥#@&!”
Su Hao really wanted to say, “Please leave quickly and don’t attract the monsters!”
Just then, a rumbling sound came from afar, followed by a roar that sounded like an elephant’s.
“Boom——”
It sounded like the roar of a huge beast.
After this roar, the surrounding distortions gradually calmed down, eventually returning to their original state.
Visible to the naked eye, a huge cloud of dust rose in the distance, accompanied by the trembling of the earth, conveying a chilling momentum, indicating that something terrifying was happening over there.
“Swoosh——”
When the world was no longer distorted, people hiding everywhere immediately jumped out of their hiding places, rushing in the opposite direction of the roar in a frenzy.
Ordinary people were too powerless against such a giant beast. Besides running away, they had no other choice.
Su Hao did the same, running away with the crowd.
Although he was very interested in the giant beast over there, now was not the time. There was plenty of time in the future, no need to rush!
If nothing unexpected happened, decades later, all these monsters would be his, and all his curiosity could be satisfied by them.
The armed girl widened her round eyes, watching Su Hao run away with the crowd and then disappear at the end of the street.
She could hardly believe that a powerful Origin Mage would pretend to be an ordinary person and flee in front of an Origin Beast!
Even facing the most troublesome and elusive “Illusionary Origin Beast” this time, she couldn’t escape.
The armed girl gritted her teeth, turned around, and ran towards the direction of the giant beast. Without the undulating ground affecting her, her speed was extremely fast. Despite wearing heavy armor, she felt light when running.
The armored girl muttered to herself, “Although I’m just a junior Gold Origin Mage with weak strength, I won’t back down! Isn’t resisting various disasters the purpose of our existence as Origin Mages?”
…
Su Hao followed the crowd and fled into a small mountain forest.
More than a thousand people rushed into the dense forest in a grand manner, using various means to hide, and in an instant, they disappeared without a trace.
The distant sounds of battle came in waves, accompanied by the painful wails of the beasts. It wasn’t until an hour later, when the sun completely set and night gradually enveloped the earth, that the battle gradually subsided.
Now the question was, did the humans win or did the Origin Beasts win?
No one knew. They all quietly hid in their pits, awaiting the final outcome.
“Woo——Woo——”
Soon, the sound of a long horn came from the small town. The people hiding in the forest came out with various portable lights, their faces full of excitement. People who knew each other chatted and laughed, seemingly mocking each other’s weird and ugly hiding positions from earlier, without any fear after just experiencing a great disaster.
Su Hao followed the crowd, thinking to himself, “Is this routine for them?”
Curiosity is everyone’s instinct. More than a thousand people hurried faster and faster, rushing towards the direction of the beasts. They also wanted to see what the Origin Beasts that attacked the town this time looked like, especially the rare “Illusionary Origin Beast”.
Soon, Su Hao arrived at the battlefield with the crowd.
A huge ball of light floated in the air, illuminating the surroundings brightly.
This area used to be a forest, but now everything was destroyed beyond recognition.
A large amount of rubble and soil rolled around, various tree trunks and branches were broken and scattered, and there were many traces of fire burning, with billowing smoke and sword-like traces crisscrossing.
At the edge of the battlefield, there was a giant beast over ten meters tall and twenty meters long, lying quietly on the ground, covered in wounds. Numerous metal spears and rock spikes were embedded in its body, and blood flowed down its body.
A long tail was cut off at the root and fell far away.
The head, resembling that of a wolf, had a super-large rock spike protruding from the ground, piercing through its chin and coming out of its head.
It looked like a fatal injury.
Many people looked at this huge Origin Beast with amazement, clearly seeing this species for the first time.
Of course, not only this Origin Beast was lying on the ground, but also many people wearing armor were lying there. The difference was that some were still alive, receiving treatment, while others were dead, about twenty of them, arranged in a row.
Su Hao scanned around and saw a familiar figure, it was the armed girl he had encountered on the street before. She was now lying unconscious on the ground, her left fist gauntlet damaged and fallen to the side, her arm covered in dripping blood, and there was a huge gash on her abdomen, continuously oozing blood.
A woman in thick armor knelt beside the armed girl, opened a piece of armor on her chest, and took out a pearl-sized bead emitting a faint red light from a small space. She placed it on the armed girl’s chest.
The small bead melted like water, and the red light spread across her body, visibly merging the wounds together, stopping the bleeding.
Su Hao’s eyes gleamed with curiosity, “What is that bead? What is the principle of healing? It seems similar to the mages in legends, but different.”
At least he had never seen a mage wearing armor and wielding various weapons in battle.
While Su Hao was curiously looking around, two armored soldiers walked towards him, one man and one woman. The man was tall and handsome, while the woman had blonde hair and a harmonious face, of average appearance.
Both of them wore sorrowful expressions, standing in front of Su Hao, wanting to speak but hesitating.
Su Hao couldn’t find a place to rest his eyes.
These two seemed to recognize him, which made the situation a bit awkward.
But he was also experienced, keeping a poker face and looking at them with his peripheral vision, his eyes staring blankly ahead.
Yes, this was the method Su Hao had come up with to deal with all strangers— the method of staring into space!
“@#%￥……” The woman said in a low mood, then looked at Su Hao for a reaction.
Su Hao kept staring ahead, “…”
Seeing Su Hao’s lack of response, the woman sighed heavily and said, “%￥&……” Then she turned and left, continuing to clean up the battlefield.
The tall man glanced at Su Hao, said nothing, and then followed suit, leaving.
Su Hao thought to himself, “I need to solve the language problem after reincarnation as soon as possible!”
In the previous world, he had successfully decoded over thirty percent of consciousness information, using it to decipher some basic words, which was quite easy.
For example, the word “tree” stored in the human brain consists of images, sounds, associated objects, etc. It was not difficult for Su Hao to break it down and find the corresponding pronunciation. The challenge lay in the grammar rules of the language.
“First, leave this place and find a quiet place to access the information in the pinball space!”
