Chapter 61 – Twenty Heads, I Keep My Word!

Volume 2: Battlefield Between Two Worlds

"Hiss."

The Class Holders behind him gasped in unison, none of them daring to take another step forward!

That was until Wen Yu's gaze drifted toward the crowd.

"The item is right here with me. However, I assume you all heard the notification?"

As Wen Yu walked slowly forward, his cold voice rang out.

"Even the notification warned you: greed leads only to destruction."

"No, I misspoke. Trash like you don't even have the right to be greedy. You actually think you can take something from my hands? In your next life, don't be human-it's clearly too exhausting for you. Just be a pig instead!"

As Wen Yu's voice grew louder, his killing intent surged. Finally, his legs exploded with power as he lunged, raising his blade against the Class Holders!

"Run!"

One of the more observant Class Holders finally realized the situation. This super-powered expert had no intention of negotiating or compromising; he was here to slaughter them. The man screamed at the top of his lungs.

That shout finally snapped most of the Class Holders out of their stupor. Some fled frantically toward the rear, while those further away from Wen Yu immediately pulled out their Teleportation Jades and teleported out of the Treasure Land!

However, there were still those blinded by greed, or perhaps those who believed they possessed the strength to face Wen Yu. They charged straight at him!

A bloody massacre commenced.

Steel Blade in hand, Wen Yu rushed toward the nearest Class Holder.

"Number one."

It sounded like a call from hell. Before the Class Holder could even draw a weapon, Wen Yu's Steel Blade was already at his throat!

A surge of immense power sent the man's head flying from his shoulders. And then…

"Number two."

Another Level 2 Class Holder had managed to close in behind Wen Yu. However, this individual had clearly just undergone their Promotion to Level 2 and didn't even have the right to swing a blade in front of Wen Yu. He was instantly cleaved in half at the waist.

"Ah! Ah! Save me! Save me!"

Being cut in half wasn't enough to kill the man instantly, but the sensation of approaching death was far more terrifying. The horror caused the Class Holder to wail in agony!

The screams jolted the remaining attackers. Those still intending to strike Wen Yu froze in their tracks, turned, and bolted!

But it was already too late!

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. You're number three!"

The hellish whisper sounded in the ear of the slowest runner. Then came a sharp, searing pain as a Steel Blade pierced through his chest from behind. The agonizing pain forced a wretched scream from his lips.

Unfortunately, Wen Yu had no intention of being merciful.

Seeing another Class Holder frantically pulling out a Teleportation Jade, Wen Yu's silhouette blurred. He lunged again, his Steel Blade-still skewering the previous victim-thrust forward once more, impaling the next man as well.

With two men stuck face-to-face on his blade, Wen Yu hoisted them into the air.

"Number four!"

With a forceful twist of his right hand, the Steel Blade tore a head-sized hole through both men. One was already dead; the other was coughing up massive amounts of blood, staring blankly at Wen Yu with hollow eyes.

Stomping the man's head into a pulp, Wen Yu immediately gave chase to the remaining Class Holders who were fleeing into the distance.

"All of you… STAY! RIGHT! THERE!"

Wen Yu's roar thundered through the sky.

Ahead, more and more Class Holders, drawn by the lure of Pandora's Box, were beginning to close in on Wen Yu's position.

"Fifth, sixth, seventh… twelfth!"

As Wen Yu's speed gradually picked up, his killing pace accelerated as well.

This continued until someone caught his Steel Blade mid-swing!

"Oh?"

Wen Yu hadn't reached the point of being blinded by bloodlust. Seeing a powerful individual suddenly appear before him, he immediately took two steps back.

The one who had caught Wen Yu's Steel Blade was a young man dressed in a military uniform.

"Interesting. A Sequence?"

Wen Yu looked at the Military Uniform Man with a faint, mocking smile.

With a neat, short haircut and a posture as straight as a spear, he was clearly a professional soldier. Standing behind him were two other Class Holders dressed in the same attire.

Behind those three, a large crowd of people watched Wen Yu while trembling in fear, as if they were looking at a monster!

The Military Uniform Man looked at the corpses littering the ground, then at Wen Yu, who was covered in blood. His fists clenched instantly.

"That's right. Sequence 29. Sir, don't you think your actions have gone too far? These people were clearly already trying to run. Why couldn't you just let them go?"

"Heh, a bleeding heart, I see."

Wen Yu let out a soft, mocking laugh. Ignoring the Military Uniform Man's questioning, he moved directly to decapitate the corpses on the ground.

After picking up a head, Wen Yu spoke directly to the Military Uniform Man.

"Since you were able to take one of my strikes, you naturally have the right to participate in this competition. Follow me."

With that, Wen Yu began collecting the heads from the ground.

The Military Uniform Man-Sequence 29-stared at Wen Yu with a face full of rage, yet he made no move to stop him.

Just now, catching Wen Yu's blade had left his right hand numb and his soul vibrating violently. Even now, he could barely control his body's physical reactions.

"Right, help me carry a few. There are so many I can't quite carry them all myself!"

Wen Yu handed three heads directly to the Military Uniform Man. Despite the man's expression turning increasingly grim, Wen Yu shoved them forcefully into his arms.

"Let's go."

Carrying a string of heads, Wen Yu walked back toward the place where he had separated from One-Eye.

When Wen Yu arrived at the spot, One-Eye was busily tearing into the corpses on the ground.

The flesh and blood of Class Holders provided a stronger effect for the growth of a Mutant Beast.

So, even though most of the bodies on the ground were only Level 1 Class Holders, they still provided an Enhancement effect for One-Eye.

"Come on, let me count!"

"1, 2, 3… 27. Good, that's enough!"

Hearing Wen Yu's indifferent tone as he counted the corpses, the Military Uniform Man behind him finally couldn't take it anymore.

"You… you are a total madman!"

Hearing the rage and mockery in the man's voice, Wen Yu turned his head and looked at him coldly.

"You're wrong. According to your logic, I am a powerful madman. Take note: 'powerful' is the key word here."

After a brief pause, Wen Yu continued.

"Judging by your appearance, you must be a soldier. Out of respect for the fact that you could block one of my strikes, I didn't kill you. However, do not even think about testing my bottom line."

"As for these people on the ground, I didn't kill them. They died because of their own greed."

"Furthermore, I have something to say now. You should stand further away and listen to me quietly. At this distance, you should know that your life is not guaranteed!"
