A group of curious onlookers followed the Qing Army Governor to the foot of the mountain. Upon seeing the rows of young corpses with ferocious expressions, their earlier gloating smiles slowly disappeared, and their pupils involuntarily widened.
"This shield and armor! [Frost Shield] Sigurd Holmby!"
"Brittania's White Tower Wizard..."
"Italian Holy Knight..."
"Druid of the Nature Sect..."
At a glance, people recognized extraordinary individuals from several national forces, including so faces they had even interacted with!
Ulyana walked up to a corpse of a girl with vacant eyes, staring intently at her face.
"[Steel Angel] Muriel Frankel..."
"Her Constellation Team was ranked in the country, and they're... wiped out?"
Muttering to herself, Ulyana stiffly turned her head, staring intensely at the Qing Country officer who brought them here.
"Who killed them?"
"Uh... it should be that lord from before."
"Should?!"
Facing Ulyana's oppressive gaze, the Governor explained nervously.
"When I arrived, it was already littered with corpses, except for that lord who was the only living being, so... it should be him who killed them."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the bodies on the ground and fell into silence.
They had originally thought he simply repelled the Golden Team stationed here, but unexpectedly, he had shockingly massacred both the garrison and reinforcents?!
A total of five extraordinary teams, over sixty people!
Such terrifying power!
Such a ruthless killing intent!
China's extraordinaries generally believe in "leaving a way out for future encounters."
Even in conflict, they would give their enemies so face and rarely go to the extres...
This isn't their usual style!
Staring at the ground filled with corpses, gazing at their unappeased, hideous expressions, it seed everyone could feel their despair and unwillingness before death.
In a daze, they once again recalled the innocent, handso smile of the young Zhu Haomiao, and...
His immaculate, unblemished clothing!
Suddenly realizing sothing, everyone's pupils contracted sharply.
Slaughtering five well-known extraordinary teams without a scratch?!
Impossible, right?!
Even a cornered rabbit will bite!
These were over sixty Heaven's Chosen Ones!
Did they really fail to make a peer bleed despite fighting to the death?
Absurd thoughts tumbled in their minds; though it was broad daylight, they inexplicably felt a chill penetrating to their bones.
What kind of monster is that guy?
.........
"Achoo!"
Returning to the rear, Zhu Haomiao inexplicably sneezed, rubbing his nose in confusion.
"Is there another scheming civilian trying to harm ?"
Glancing around, Zhu Haomiao quickly dismissed the fleeting thoughts and walked into the command center with a sack full of badges.
This ti, the guards along the way seed to recognize his face, allowing him unobstructed passage into the deepest hall.
From afar, he heard Wang Hua's excited voice.
"Junior Brother Zhu eliminated five teams by himself, all five strategic support points along the Kaicheng line have changed hands, the enemy's defense lines have completely collapsed; we need to seize this montum and breach their defenses, leveling Han City!"
But soone imdiately countered.
"It's too dangerous. Although we have created a huge strategic salient on the Kaicheng front, the enemy's flanks still maintain strong combat power. What if we beco isolated deep inside enemy lines and get surrounded?"
"Exactly, going all-in at once is too risky; if the enemy counters, it could backfire on us."
"We should take a steady approach and first smooth out the eastern line. The enemy has a significant advantage there and is nearly at Xinping, just seventy to eighty kiloters away from us."
......
Listening to the debate among different countries' dominions, Zhu Haomiao calmly stepped forward, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
"Junior Brother Zhu! You're back!"
Wang Hua cheerily approached him, wrapping him in a bear hug.
After firmly patting the young man's back, Wang Hua brought him before the dominions and proudly said,
"You did us proud this ti! You showed our spirit!"
Hearing this, leaders from various countries gave the young man a complex look.
One person annihilating over sixty people without a scratch, even the [Abyss] wouldn't be this overwhelmingly strong!
Most crucially, this was only the result of his achievents from scratch in three virtual years!
This growth rate seriously challenges the most fundantal physical laws!
On the other side, oblivious to the complex gazes from the dominant powers, Zhu Haomiao handed a sack to Wang Hua.
"Senior Brother Wang, these are the spoils of war, please hand them to the committee."
Clink, clink~
Receiving the sack and hearing the crisp sound of tal inside, Wang Hua glanced at the shiny badges of various countries and gradually cald his excitent.
An initially light sack inexplicably beca heavy, and at this mont, Wang Hua realized the terrifying slaughter Zhu Haomiao had achieved.
That was over sixty Golden Transcendents of the sa level!
Yet, despite risking their lives, they couldn't leave a single scratch on the young man, not even on the hem of his clothes!
Looking at Zhu Haomiao's intact, jet-black cloak, a feeling of respect and awe welled up in Wang Hua's heart for the first ti.
As a friend who witnessed Zhu Haomiao's gradual growth move forward, he always felt the other was still the naive boy who knew nothing when they first t.
But at that mont, Wang Hua suddenly realized that the other had grown to a level he couldn't understand!
Even looking up, he could barely see a shadow...
"Hm? Senior Brother Wang, what's up?"
Sensing Wang Hua's inner turmoil, Zhu Haomiao looked at him curiously.
Suddenly, the boy's clear and naive gaze overlapped with the mories of when they first t, instantly dissipating the sense of unfamiliarity and distance in Wang Hua's heart. He grinned self-deprecatingly.
"Nothing, I'll help you exchange these badges into War Contribution Points right away."
"By the way, Senior Brother Wang, the War Contribution Points from the [Ascension Competition] will proportionately increase the Contribution Points for the [Yanhuang Armory], right?"
"That's right."
"So, how many Contribution Points do I have now?"
"Hmm... you captured a dium strategic point alone and recovered so many badges, at least a thousand points, but the specific amount depends on the committee's calculations."
Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao's eyes lit up.
"Then I need to go back to Shanghai."
"Huh? Why return to Shanghai?"
"To exchange cultivation techniques, I haven't learned three Basic Forces yet!"
...
Upon hearing this, leaders from various countries' dominions who had been listening with ears pricked felt their eyelids twitching in shock, exchanging bewildered glances.
He simultaneously used five Basic Forces because he only learned five, not because he could only use five?!!
Could there truly exist a [Eight Forces Combined] monster in this world?!
