Chapter 750 - 616: One Shouldn’t Be Too Ostentatious
CHAPTER 750: CHAPTER 616: ONE SHOULDN’T BE TOO OSTENTATIOUS
"This is serious, it’s the flag of the Master of Time." said Golden Dog with a tone of awe.
Inside the underground cavern.
It squatted beside Wu Xiaode, holding the Holy Treasure Ring in its mouth, constantly scanning the mountain of jade slips and selecting suitable Cultivation Techniques to offer to the Wall of Sighs.
——It even had spare time to check on Wu Xiaode’s condition.
Wu Xiaode sat cross-legged on the ground, holding a game controller, his heart not at peace.
"Now that I’ve activated ’Super Shadow Followers,’ then..."
He moved the game controller.
On the screen, another him fiercely swiped the purple Void flag on the left side and reached out to pull out another flag.
——The Flag of No Beginning.
He then planted this flag on his right side.
On the battlefield.
The wind howled fiercely.
The two large flags fluttered in the wind.
In the blink of an eye, an abrupt change occurred——
Wu Xiaode, along with the game controller, was directly sucked into the light and shadow of the screen hanging in midair.
"Little Wu, what’s happening!" Golden Dog cried out urgently.
The next moment.
It too was drawn into the light and shadow.
All the noise in the underground cavern disappeared without a trace.
After a while.
In the rapid underground river, a figure suddenly emerged.
Emperor Bai.
He was dripping wet, walking step by step onto the shore, arriving at the place where Wu Xiaode had been.
"...That’s not right, according to the sequence tracking, he should be right here."
Emperor Bai said with a puzzled face.
From the darkness behind him, another figure suddenly burst forth.
Night King!
"Hmph, if you had told me clearly earlier, maybe we could have stopped him in time. But now, I’m afraid he’s long gone," Night King said with annoyance.
The two of them had a real fight until their sequences called a halt.
After communicating through the sequence, they were ordered to join forces to complete this greatest assassination mission.
——But the target had disappeared.
"Don’t worry, there seems to be traces of him outside the cavern, let’s go check it out," Emperor Bai said.
"Let’s go!" Night King flew eagerly along the tunnel toward the outside.
Elsewhere.
A dizzying whirl.
Wu Xiaode’s eyes snapped open, and he stumbled forward a few steps.
A strong stench of blood hit his nostrils.
The sounds of battle cries, the roar of magic, screams, and the long, teeth-gritting squeals of weapons clashing with armor melded together.
At his feet lay bodies piled up to his knees, as far as the eye could see.
Humans were waging war among this sea of corpses against the demons.
Wu Xiaode’s face changed.
——I’ve come in as well?
He looked back and saw another him standing a few steps away, alert and in a defensive stance, completely motionless.
The two flags were planted on either side of that other him, dancing in the wind.
In an instant.
The Book of the Dead opened, lines of ice crystal text appeared:
"Both flags have been activated."
"This book has received the messages left in the flags and states the following:"
"You are currently in the historical era of Pangu’s destruction."
"You need to move forward to the Star Mountains within three hours. The main battlefield is there, and you must witness a certain historical event."
"——Reach the Star Mountains within the time limit, and you will understand everything."
"Since this is a secret infiltration, the flow of time will have slight fluctuations. Your counterpart will guard the flags here to ensure everything remains undetected, stable as usual."
Star Mountains...
It seems the Master of Time had some things he didn’t manage to tell me.
Wu Xiaode looked towards the other him and the two flags of time.
This part of the battlefield clearly only had some low-level demons; the other him wouldn’t be in much danger here.
Forget it.
Let’s take a look then!
He crouched down, casually picked up a few pieces of Battle Armor, and noticed that each had a size marking on the collar.
He picked out a 2XL Battle Armor to wear and grabbed a helmet, heading towards where the human soldiers were densest.
There was no need for the Desert Sword——
He blazed a trail with the "Red Fort" and "Blowing Snow" from the Butterfly Soul blade, the low-level demons no match for him at all.
Wu Xiaode was a little puzzled as he fought.
——These demons clearly lacked combat experience!
They only fought with their sharp teeth and claws; there was no finesse or cunning in their moves.
Such attacks were certainly a problem for ordinary people.
But against even slightly professional soldiers, they were no challenge.
However, there were simply too many of them.
This was also why the battle had remained in a stalemate.
"Impressive skills!"
After Wu Xiaode had slain another demon, a man who looked like an officer suddenly praised him from not far away.
The officer pushed back the surrounding demons and charged forward, shouting loudly,
"We don’t need an expert of your caliber here, are you willing to go reinforce the Cross-sea Bridge? The battle there is critical!"
"I would not dare disobey!" Wu Xiaode responded with a fist salute.
"Not dare to obey?" the officer asked, his expression changing.
"That’s how we speak in my hometown," Wu Xiaode quickly explained, "It means I will definitely obey!"
"What a fine fellow, though your accent is too thick—I’ll send you there right now!"
The officer took out a metal box, swiftly adjusted the coordinates, and then slapped it onto Wu Xiaode’s back.
Hum——
Amidst the spatial fluctuations, Wu Xiaode was directly sucked into the Void.
By the time he came to his senses, his feet had already touched solid ground.
The light was poor.
It took Wu Xiaode a moment to get accustomed before he could make out his surroundings.
At the moment, he found himself in some underground shelter, next to a pile of various weapons and pieces of armor that formed a small hill.
The distant sounds of battle seeped in faintly, unclear.
It was then that a rugged voice reached his ears:
"New recruits at this hour? Well, the more people, the more strength!"
Wu Xiaode turned his head to look and saw a human officer covered in wounds hurriedly appear at the entrance of the shelter, pointing towards the hill of weapons and armor.
"That scrap metal on you won’t do, pick out a good set of equipment quickly, then come out to fight!"
After speaking, the human officer withdrew his head back outside the door.
Then came the sound of his retreating footsteps.
——It seemed the battle was indeed urgent.
And it should be.
This was the moment when the Pangu World was about to be destroyed.
Wasn’t the Pangu World completely shattered by the eternal power and then turned into countless other worlds?
Why were humans still fighting against the demons?
Wu Xiaode had many questions in his mind, but he simply went to the hill of weapons and armor to find equipment that suited him.
The armor he wore was indeed inadequate; it was not only stifling but also fragile.
Wu Xiaode tapped it with his finger, directly making a small dent in the front of his chest.
"Indeed, I need to change..." he muttered to himself.
The Book of the Dead suddenly opened, and the Golden Dog spoke up:
"I have completed the full scan, move aside those firearms on the left and dig straight down, there is a frost blue piece of armor underneath, suitable for you."
Wu Xiaode did as told, directly scattering the entire little hill with a rustling noise.
In no time at all.
He really found a piece of frost blue armor.
"Fits just right, you’ve put in some thought," Wu Xiaode praised.
"Hmph, the most suitable one for you is this Frost Bright Exquisite Armor," the Golden Dog said.
"Why?"
"It has two additional abilities—"
"Tide Show: When you slide, your movement speed and attack speed increase threefold;"
"Frost Bright: The one you’re fighting with will be affected by Ice Frost, their movement gradually slows down and they become prone to falling."
Wu Xiaode donned the Battle Armor and glanced at the weapons again.
"There’s no need to look at the weapons, none of them compare to your Butterfly Soul knife and Desert Sword," the Golden Dog said.
Wu Xiaode turned and walked out of the shelter.
Little did he know, the shelter’s main gate had already been tightly closed at some point.
He tried to push it but couldn’t budge it, so he simply kicked it.
With a loud "clang," the gate collapsed.
"Fight for the Human Race!"
Wu Xiaode shouted defiantly as he raised his fist, both to encourage himself and to showcase his mettle.
As the dust settled,
He suddenly realized something was amiss.
Outside on the battlefield, there were no standing humans left.
The demon army was fully equipped and ready to move on from this position they seemed to have captured, preparing to advance elsewhere.
Only a few scattered demons carrying weapons were clearing the battlefield.
The shout Wu Xiaode let out caught the attention of all the demons, who turned to look at him in unison.
A moment of silence.
The Golden Dog whispered softly, "The number of demons opposite is 890,378, and I remember you don’t like fighting against greater numbers."
Without a word, Wu Xiaode retreated into the shelter, grabbed a white cape, and draped it over a stick before walking out again.
He waved the "white flag" in his hand and said with a smile on his face,
"Don’t mind me, please march at once."
From within the demon army, a leader shouted, "Left and right, go and kill that human, and bring back his head to put on my flag!"
"Yes!"
The demons sprang into action.
Seeing this situation, Wu Xiaode couldn’t help but sigh,
"It seems one really shouldn’t stand out too much."
He threw away the white flag, loosened up his body, his figure lax as he charged toward the demon army.
