...

There was no dragging out, nor was there excessive chatter.

The entire process took only a dozen seconds, and the nightmare difficulty boss, the Dragon Man Guardian, lay dead on the spot.

Its entire body was covered in sword marks that went deep into the bone, each one hitting a vital spot.

This time, soloing the nightmare difficulty dungeon took no more than an hour.

"Unknowingly, I can already instantly kill bosses."

When Xia Qi landed on the ground, he himself felt a bit surprised.

If this were before coming to the Dragon Battlefield, he wouldn't have been able to achieve such an effect at all.

He could definitely kill it, but it would certainly not be this effortless and an instant kill.

After all, the Dragonkin Camp was a Rank 33 battlefield dungeon, and its intensity was somewhat higher than many ordinary dungeons at Shengjing University.

"Perhaps I've grown too strong too quickly, and my body hasn't reacted yet."

Without comparison, it was difficult to realize that when his attribute points were only over a thousand, fighting dungeons was actually a bit like scratching an itch.

If Xia Qi didn't have many Talents on him, and with the combination of various Talents, he could manipulate bosses.

Using only a single Talent to clear a dungeon was actually a very troublesome matter.

Now, even if he only used a single Talent, Xia Qi was confident he could quickly slay a boss of the same Rank.

This was the confidence brought by the increase in Rank and attributes.

Looking at the equipment, the Golden-Rank equipment from the nightmare difficulty had good attributes, but compared to the breakthrough equipment dropped from the Infernal Level, it was far inferior.

After a quick glance, Xia Qi lost interest.

After all, with something better, who would be interested in inferior equipment?

Besides selling them for money, he couldn't think of any other use for these pieces of equipment for now.

A lot of Materials dropped this time, especially the Materials General Hu requested. After a tally, Xia Qi found that he only needed to farm once more to gather them all.

This quest was too childish now; it just required a bit of time.

"Let's go out and get some military merits first, then come back when the cooldown is over."

He still needed to clear the nightmare difficulty once more, but Xia Qi didn't plan to waste Rune Reset Stone uses.

After all, Infernal Level and nightmare difficulty were the same, so why not use it on a Infernal Level dungeon?

Using it on a nightmare difficulty dungeon would be too wasteful.

Wasting one now already made Xia Qi feel a bit pained. Since he wasn't in a hurry to go back, the monsters in the wild were also quite appealing. He might as well farm some military merits first.

As soon as he left the dungeon, an unusually strong smell of blood wafted into his nostrils.

In his ears, low growls were incessant, and he even heard human wails.

Due to the fog obscuring his view of the distance, Xia Qi could only see blurry outlines.

A dark humanoid creature, about two meters tall, was crouching on the ground, constantly tearing at something.

The dungeon entrance, which should have had hundreds of soldiers from various countries gathered, was now deserted and empty, with no one in sight.

"Something happened!"

His brows furrowed slightly. With just one glance, Xia Qi knew that an unexpected situation had occurred.

On the ground, scattered bloodstains were everywhere, along with human severed limbs and broken bodies, indicating that the incident happened so suddenly that the soldiers had no time to react.

With his mechanical floating energy shield deployed, Xia Qi held his Dragon Man longsword and cautiously walked towards the previously blurry shadow.

After walking about fifty meters forward, as visibility slightly improved, Xia Qi was slightly startled.

As far as his eyes could see, there were Low-level demons.

He had fought these things in the Fallen Land and was very familiar with the appearance of these Low-level demons.

With two horns on their heads, Ghost Face Fangs (ghost-face fangs), they looked very much like the Golden-Horned and Silver-Horned Brothers from myths.

However, their size was only a little over two meters, not as tall as the boss in the Fallen Land.

A large area near the dungeon entrance had been surrounded by these Low-level demons.

Human Race teams were deeply encircled, fighting for their lives against them.

Inside, there were many familiar faces, with the Nine-Star Veteran's team prominently in the middle.

However, seeing their struggling appearance, it was clear they were having an extremely difficult time coping.

At this moment, a demon, its face covered in blood, raised its head from a corpse and happened to look at Xia Qi.

"There's still delicious Human Race here, so tender, so lovely!"

The Low-level demon spoke human words, directly throwing the corpse beneath it away, and rapidly rushed towards Xia Qi.

It carried no weapons; its sharp demonic claws and body were its weapons.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three arrows shot out consecutively, dragging long fiery tails as they landed on the Low-level demon.

Boom!

The flaming arrows then exploded, blasting the Low-level demon several meters away.

"Young man, come over quickly!"

As the Nine-Star Veteran's voice rang out, a chilling sword light flashed by.

A Low-level demon was forced back.

The Nine-Star Veteran and his teammates directly charged to Xia Qi's front.

Seeing Xia Qi appear at the dungeon entrance and being attacked by Low-level demons,

They came to help without a second thought.

At this moment, the Human Race's characteristic of unity was demonstrated.

Those still fighting the Low-level demons were basically soldiers of the Human Race. The few small teams from other countries had either died or fled, and were no longer seen.

Xia Qi hadn't expected the Veteran and his team to charge over, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration for them.

To still think of saving people in such a life-or-death situation, that alone was already very respectable.

Good people!

Xia Qi sighed with emotion.

"Don't just stand there, young man."

The Veteran said quickly, panting, as he held his shield in front of Xia Qi.

His teammates also defended the other directions.

They truly treated Xia Qi like a new recruit, protecting him.

"We can't discern your strength, but in terms of military Rank, we are your superiors, so protecting you is our duty."

The Veteran glanced at Xia Qi, then scanned the surroundings as he spoke.

"We'll block these demons for you. You take the chance to crush your teleportation stone and return to the outpost."

"What about you guys? How will you leave?"

Xia Qi blinked and asked.

"Of course, a few of us can get away. We're just afraid you might be careless. Low-level demons are not easy to deal with. It's safer to go back."

"You're still young, with infinite possibilities. It would truly be a pity if you died here."

The Veteran's words were earnest; he truly thought so.

Even if Xia Qi was very strong, he was still just a greenhorn. The battlefield changes rapidly and won't make an exception for you just because you're a Genius.

Many Geniuses die on the Dragon Battlefield every year, and ninety-nine percent of them die due to carelessness.

The death of each of these Human Race Geniuses who haven't fully matured yet is an irreparable loss for humanity.

The Veteran, having spent a long time on the battlefield, naturally understood this principle.

If it were before, Xia Qi would definitely have listened to the advice.

But now!

Xia Qi looked at the considerable number of Low-level demons, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

These were all huge amounts of military merits!
