202: massacre

Inside the room.

At this moment, Li An and the other two were also conversing. Yan Ming's question to Nie Guang earlier might have seemed like an inquiry about his condition, but to Li An and his companions, it was more of a test!

After all, they had already learned about some internal issues on Sel Star from their mission. While Sain Dale, the monarch, was willing to embrace the Paradise, some people within Sel Star did not share his sentiment. This went against their interests, and they could not accept the decision to merge with the Paradise.

"Let's recover from our injuries first."

"Perhaps a battle will arrive very soon."

The three newcomers were not in a hurry to meet Sain Dale, the monarch of Sel Star. Instead, they planned to let Nie Guang recover from his injuries. Only with powerful strength as a foundation would they have the confidence to complete the upcoming mission.

After all, they had already lost one team member during the World Scramble phase. Now, they needed to be even more cautious in their actions.

Rustle rustle rustle ~

However, just then, as the three were talking, Li An's ears twitched. With his terrifying perception, Li An immediately detected movement outside the room.

Li An then looked at Nie Guang and Ma Ke, smiled slightly, and said, "It seems our opponents are already eager to eliminate us."

"We just arrived at the Land of Brilliance, and they already know of our existence."

"The mercenary group, perhaps, played a crucial role."

As Li An discovered the commotion outside, Nie Guang and Ma Ke quickly realized something was amiss. When Li An's words fell, Nie Guang immediately picked up the conversation and said.

"What should we do, Sir?"

Ma Ke immediately shifted his gaze to Nie Guang, then to Li An.

As the strongest among the three, Li An had unknowingly become their center. Even Nie Guang, the nominal captain, now needed to seriously consider Li An's suggestions.

"Leave it to me."

"Ma Ke, just take care of the captain."

The next second, before Nie Guang could speak, Li An, who was sitting nearby, spoke again.

Nie Guang's condition had not yet recovered, and while Ma Ke's strength was not weak, it was not enough to achieve an overwhelming victory. Li An thought it over and concluded that he had to handle it himself.

Upon hearing this, and with Li An taking the initiative, Nie Guang was not one to be overly modest. His mind stirred, and he understood Li An's concerns, so he had no intention of refusing.

Nie Guang immediately looked at Li An and said, "Then I'll trouble you to go."

Seeing this, Li An nodded slightly, said nothing more, and directly got up and walked towards the door.

Then the sound of the door opening rang out, and Li An stepped outside.

On the other side!

After the Earth Demon Clan members completely surrounded the courtyard, one Earth Demon Clan member immediately emerged from the group and walked directly towards the tightly shut gate of the courtyard.

When he reached the gate, the Earth Demon Clan member raised his leg and kicked towards it. But just as his foot was about to touch the gate, to the surprise of the Earth Demon Clan member, the tightly shut gate suddenly opened inexplicably from within.

This caused the Earth Demon Clan member to lose his balance and fall forward.

Boom!

However, at the moment of falling, a scene that terrified the Earth Demon Clan member appeared. In his vision, a foot was rapidly enlarging at a visible speed, and finally, he only felt a chill in his chest, followed by his entire being completely losing consciousness.

Splash ~

Immediately, a large amount of fresh blood exploded, splattering in all directions, with much of the flesh and blood directly clinging to the courtyard gate.

Faced with this sudden scene, the Earth Demon Clan members surrounding the courtyard were shocked. They had just witnessed the gruesome death of that Earth Demon Clan member.

"Where did this bug come from? It's not good if it dirties this gate."

Li An slowly walked out of the open gate, his expression calm, as if what he had just kicked to death was not a living creature, but an insect.

"Bastard!"

"A mere human, kill him."

Seeing Li An still acting so fearless after killing their companion, the surrounding Earth Demon Clan members immediately became enraged. A dense crowd of them instantly shouted and charged towards Li An.

However, faced with this sight, Li An merely smiled faintly, then his figure directly vanished from its original spot.

Bang bang bang ~

The next second, terrifying explosions instantly resounded through the void, and large amounts of fresh blood exploded, splattering downwards in all directions.

One after another, Earth Demon Clan warriors fell to the ground, and many more Earth Demon Clan warriors let out wails and screams.

The formerly clean street in front of the gate, with the explosion of blood and the flying of severed limbs, instantly transformed into a bloody slaughterhouse.

When Li An reappeared, there were not many Earth Demon Clan warriors left standing on the field; in fact, there were only a handful. The reason these few were still standing was because Li An kept them for a purpose.

He needed someone to deliver a message for him, to tell those rats hiding in the dark not to make such pointless resistance!

"Get lost."

"Go tell your masters that their plans are doomed to fail. We will go see the monarch later. The Forbidden Zone will not give you time."

"If you resist, then we will kill all of you."

Li An glanced at the few remaining Earth Demon Clan warriors on the field, revealing a row of white teeth, and said indifferently.

"Yes, yes... Understood, understood."

At this moment, these few remaining Earth Demon Clan warriors were completely terrified.

In just a few seconds, he had slaughtered so many of them. Was this human a monster?

Looking at Li An, who had killed so many of their people without a change in expression, these few Earth Demon Clan warriors immediately lowered their arrogant heads. At this moment, they didn't even dare to meet Li An's gaze.

"Good that you know, now get out."

"Oh, and tell your masters, if they still want to make a move, they should do it soon."

As his words fell, Li An burst into laughter and returned to the courtyard.

At this moment, Li An didn't even bother to close the door. If he wasn't mistaken, with this incident happening on his side, Captain Yan Ming should be rushing back soon.

And as he expected, a few minutes after the Earth Demon warriors died, a series of hurried footsteps came from the end of the street.

Hearing the sound, Li An immediately turned back, once again standing in front of the gate.

"What's going on here?"

To Li An's surprise, Captain Yan Ming, who had arrived again, no longer had his previous politeness. Instead, he had a business-like expression. He led at least a thousand mercenary warriors, blockading the entire courtyard where Li An was.

"Can't you see?"

"These bugs, who knows where they came from, seem to want to kill us."

Li An glanced indifferently at Yan Ming, who had a business-like expression, and said in a calm tone.
