Chapter 206: 171: Human Race? Alien Race! Kill!
By using the positioning system, if human martial artists came within 3 kilometers of each other within the 1000 kilometers, they would usually receive an induction to prevent friendly fire.
Not detecting anything?
There were three possible explanations: one was that the martial artists didn\'t want to reveal their whereabouts and had turned off their intelligent ring-tablets\' positioning.
Another was that the intelligent ring-tablets were lost or broken.
And the last possibility was—the others weren\'t human martial artists, but aliens.
Still, this area was only 600 kilometers from the Human Race\'s war base and was rather within their sphere of influence.
Would a strong member of the Tianliang Civilization come all the way here to kill?
"Just judging by the attire, they resemble our human martial artists." Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and moved his body like a gust of wind, vanishing into the slightly dim forest.
With Li Yuan\'s current skills, although he hadn\'t deliberately practiced the art of assassination, after achieving Unity of Heaven and Man, his stealth ability was not at all inferior to that of some formidable assassins.
After all, what is stealth? It is essentially merging with the environment, so that others cannot detect you.
And a warrior of Unity of Heaven and Man seeks precisely that—to become one with the universe.
Understanding one art enlightens a hundred others.
A warrior of Unity of Heaven and Man could rapidly master various skills and techniques that ordinary people would have to train for a long time.
...
Li Yuan projected his senses outward, his perception astonishing.
He noticed early on the three faint purple figures shuttling through the forest.
But these three faint purple figures did not detect Li Yuan\'s presence at all.
"Number two, number three, keep a close eye on our surroundings, stay alert, we\'ve entered the activity range of the Seven Star Civilization, we might encounter human martial artists at any time," said the tall, thin man with unkempt hair, while scanning the surroundings attentively.
His face bore some resemblance to the people of Xia Country, only his skin was a bit darker, and his pronunciation was peculiar, speaking a language completely different from that of the Human Race.
"Hmm."
"We\'re disguised so well that even if they see us from a distance, they might not recognize us."
"We\'re just in charge of the alert exploration, the capture and pursuit is for the captain and the others. Judging by the time, the captain should have caught them by now." The other two purple-cloaked figures, carrying weapons, responded in low voices.
The three of them formed a loose combat formation, continually surveying their surroundings with sharp eyes, as if searching for something.
Suddenly.
"Who\'s there!" The leader in purple robes shouted suddenly, sensing something, this time using the rather awkward Xia Country language.
The other two purple robes were startled as they had not sensed anything yet.
"Whoosh!" Without a sound.
About fifty meters to the side of the three, a figure clad in black suddenly appeared from the dense forest, a young man holding a black long spear, with an innocent smile on his face.
"Sirs, it\'s me, so glad to have finally found some living people." The young man in black waved his long spear excitedly and shouted loudly.
This voice echoed in the forest, very conspicuous, a perfect match for the young man\'s smiling face.
The three purple-cloaked figures exchanged glances.
"It\'s a human martial artist, quite young, probably just resting there earlier," whispered the leader in the tall purple cloak, "perception of life force suggests around level 17; we\'ll observe if there\'s anyone else first, and capture him for questioning as soon as he gets close."
Level 17?
This made the other two purple-cloaked figures relax their guard subconsciously, for they were both level 18 warriors, and their captain was approaching level 19.
The disparity in physical quality by one level meant an astounding difference in strength.
"Young brother, which team are you from?" The man in the tall purple cloak showed a slight smile, leading the others to greet him proactively.
"I\'m from the Suzuki squad." The young man in black responded cheerily, "It\'s my first time here, and I got separated from them. Which martial artists\' team are you seniors from?"
"Oh?"
"Suzuki squad? I\'ve heard of it," the tall man in the purple cloak answered Li Yuan while keeping up appearances.
The distance of several dozen meters between them closed quickly, and within a few seconds, both sides approached within twenty meters of each other.
In the next instant.
Whoosh! Whoosh! The two figures beside the tall purple-cloaked figure burst forth simultaneously, their speed skyrocketing in a moment, attacking the young man in black from the left and the right.
"With Wei Lao and Zhen Hong\'s strength, they should be able to capture him with three or two moves when working together." The tall man in the purple cloak thought as much.
However, contrary to his expectations.
The young man in black didn\'t panic or get bewildered as he had imagined; instead, he burst out almost simultaneously, faster and more ferocious.
"Not good, he\'s been hiding his strength," the face of the tall purple-cloaked figure changed, and he immediately exploded into action, drawing his combat saber in a flash, attempting to rescue his two companions.
But it was too late.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Three figures collided like lightning in mid-air.
"Whoosh!"
The long spear whistled, emitting a terrifying shriek as it thrust straight at the two figures in purple robes.
Too fast.
The power and speed unleashed by Li Yuan in an instant left all three purple-cloaked people shocked and terrified.
"Be careful," the tall purple-cloaked figure instinctively let out in his native tongue.
Thud~thud! Thud!
Figures crossed, spears crossed, and right afterward a torrent of blood sprayed out.
A massive bloody hole appeared instantly in the necks of the two purple-cloaked figures.
Their weapons clanged to the ground, and their bodies crashed into the grassland.
Until death.
The eyes of the two purple-cloaked figures bore an expression of disbelief. How could a young man supposedly at level 17 become so formidable all of a sudden?
"Boom!"
Li Yuan, having killed two with one strike, did not pause for an instant and collided with the tall purple-cloaked figure like lightning.
"Die!" the tall purple-cloaked figure roared, moving like a ghost, wielding a weapon resembling a huge combat saber.
As the strongest among the three, he was also stunned by Li Yuan\'s explosive attack.
But in such a close-quarters burst, it was already too late for him to retreat. With no other choice but to fight, he prepared to confront Li Yuan.
"Facing a long weapon with a short one, just need to seize a sliver of chance to get in close, and there\'s a chance to win."
"Moreover, this Seven Stars individual\'s Life Level isn\'t as strong as mine. If I can just block one wave, I\'ll be able to escape."
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Li Yuan\'s long spear came whistling in his hand, instantly creating dozens of phantoms. The spear tip howled as if countless glimmers enveloped him.
It was one of the five deadly moves of Stellar Spear Technique, the \'Stellar Illumination.\'
This was a defensive move, but if the realm was high enough, it could also be used as a slaughter move.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Countless spear shadows howled. Although Li Yuan\'s physical quality was much weaker, his spear was much faster than the slender figure in the purple robe, accurate and extremely ruthless.
One spear thrust followed another.
He completely took the initiative.
Each thrust sent a chill down the slender figure\'s spine, as if walking along the edge of death, he didn\'t have time to think and could only wield his combat saber to block with all his might.
Nine collisions in a row.
Under the terrifying force, the surrounding mud and stones blasted and flew everywhere.
"Rise." Li Yuan bellowed, his long spear danced in his hand, and he suddenly swung it down heavily onto the slender figure\'s arms.
After this collision, the figure in the purple robe could no longer resist. The terrifying impact sent him flying uncontrollably into the air.
Strength starts from the root.
As a first and second rank warrior who couldn\'t yet fly, one wouldn\'t let oneself be air-borne lightly in the heat of close combat.
Spurt!
"Thud!" Seizing the opportunity, Li Yuan followed with a straight thrust. His long spear howled, and immediately, a blood hole appeared on each of the slender figure\'s shoulders.
The arms were almost torn apart.
"Bang~" The slender figure in purple smashed heavily against a nearby mountainside, kicking up countless fragments. The intense pain in both arms made it impossible for him to hold onto his combat saber any longer.
"Clang~" "Clang~" The combat saber fell to the ground.
The slender figure also landed from the mountainside and barely stood up, completely bereft of fighting ability.
Boom! A black figure flashed in.
"Swoosh!" Another spear shadow flashed past.
Crack~ The sound of two knee bones shattering rang out.
The knees of the purple-robed slender figure burst open, instantly turning bloodied and blurry, he could no longer endure and, with his face to the ground, crashed down to his knees.
Both arms and knees were disabled, and he lost the ability to move.
"Bang~" Another kick sent the slender figure in the purple robe flying several meters, landing heavily.
He lay on his back, bloodied and battered, and moving became difficult after being struck repeatedly.
However, given his strong vitality, nonsfatal injuries to the heart and head meant he wouldn\'t die in a short time.
Whew!
Li Yuan stood five meters away and did not approach, just stared coldly at the slender figure.
Better safe than sorry, even with an overwhelming advantage, one must remain cautious.
Indeed.
If it wasn\'t for wanting to capture a live one for interrogation, Li Yuan could have killed him within five moves with his strength.
"Tianliang Clan\'s, you understand the human language." Li Yuan spoke indifferently, "I ask, you answer, I promise to give you a quick death. Otherwise, you will definitely regret it."
"Regret?" The figure on the ground sneered, "Seven Stars human, don\'t expect to pry anything useful from my mouth. Don\'t underestimate the willpower of the Tianliang Clan, you\'d better kill me quickly."
"Otherwise, once our people arrive, you\'re certainly dead," the figure in the purple robe said venomously, his life force draining, he felt himself slipping away.
Moving toward death.
"Your people?" Li Yuan smiled lightly, "So, you have quite a few people coming?"
"Hmph." The figure in the purple robe snorted and spoke no more.
"One must drink punishment for refusing a toast." Li Yuan shook his head lightly, and now he took out a tan pill.
Buzz~
Enveloped in a black battle garment, Li Yuan swiftly moved in front of the figure and forced the pill into his mouth, making him swallow it by force.
"Origin Power Battle Suit?" The figure in the purple robe was shocked, then sneered, "No matter what the drug, don\'t expect to... Ahh!"
His body started to tremble violently.
"A special interrogation drug."
"One costs ten thousand Blue Star Coins." Li Yuan muttered to himself, "Almost as painful as one-tenth of the Hundred Marrow Spirit Decay... Let\'s see if your bones are tough enough."
Li Yuan had prepared 20 of these pills, specifically for the Alien Race.
Being able to train to a High Level Warrior, ordinary pains, like severed hands and feet, they could withstand quite easily.
Special methods were required.
Just dozens of seconds later.
"I\'ll talk."
"I\'ll tell you everything." The figure in the purple robe could no longer endure it, wailing in agony.
...
Soon, Li Yuan obtained the intelligence he wanted from the purple-robed figure.
Without hesitation.
Li Yuan dialed the base communication and quickly reported his situation.
"Xu An, you did very well," came the voice over the comms.
"This is information we did not know."
"However, Observation Point 19 has already come under heavy attack from the Tianliang strong beings. According to the rescue request from the observation point, there should be no second rank fighters." The voice on the communication sounded heavy, "We\'ve dispatched support squads by flyer to Observation Point 19... but flying is very risky and may not arrive in time."
"The nearest ones."
"Two warrior squads are already on the way to rescue, and we hope you can also go to support," the voice continued.
"Okay, I\'ll set out immediately," Li Yuan said somberly. Observation Point 19 was already under siege?
"What about this Tianliang?" Li Yuan asked.
"Execute him on the spot!"
