239: The Righteous Army

This was the Hungry Ghost Squad's first collective encounter with an enemy, and everyone took it seriously, especially Nineteen Mao.

He was the last to join the squad and was eager to prove himself.

He stared intently at the two burly men leading the charge. Although they were quite imposing, they still fell short compared to Nineteen Mao.

"These two are mine. You guys handle the rest," Nineteen Mao said, confidently stroking his beloved great axe.

"No problem, Nineteen, you lead the charge and give them a taste of our power!" Pan Han replied, seeing his eagerness to volunteer.

The others all looked at Nineteen Mao, admiring his bravery and feeling a surge of goodwill towards him.

Two minutes later, the four opponents entered their attack range.

"Awooo!" Nineteen Mao seized the opportunity, let out a roar, and charged out, swinging his great axe!

The four clearly hadn't reacted yet when they saw a burly man, like a tank, charging directly towards them.

"Kill!" Rushing into the enemy's formation, Nineteen Mao swung his great axe, scattering their formation.

Pan Han and the other five then outflanked them, tightly encircling the opponents.

These four looked fierce, but their combat strength was actually quite weak. As soon as they engaged with Nineteen Mao, they were knocked to the ground.

Less than a minute into the fight, the four knelt, hands clutching their treasures, begging for mercy!

"Smart of you! Hand them over." Pan Han only took treasures; he didn't kill!

As long as the opponents didn't resist and handed over their treasures, there was no need to wipe them out completely!

After all, everyone was here for the Trial, and there was no need to forge a deadly feud. If they met outside in the future, it would leave them a way out.

"Captain, their treasures are worth 70 points," Nineteen Mao reported to Pan Han after calculating.

The others felt a surge of secret joy upon hearing this. The squad now had treasures worth 160 points.

Even if they withdrew now, everyone could get 20 points!

"You may leave!" Pan Han waved his hand, dismissing them!

Upon hearing this, the four expressed their gratitude profusely and ran off.

"Big Brother, if we encounter them again later, will we still rob them?" Jiaogen Jingcun asked, a slight smile on his lips, watching their retreating figures.

"What are you talking about! A person must have principles. If I said we're taking treasures, then not one can be let go! What, you won't attack people you know?" Pan Han declared confidently.

"Big Brother is brilliant!" everyone shouted in unison.

"So, should we continue? We can withdraw now and secure 20 points!" Pan Han took out various treasures and displayed them before everyone.

"Big Brother, you decide, I'll follow your lead!" Ouyang Feijin replied without a second thought.

"Pan-dage, you're not trying to go back to find your wife, are you? It's only been a short while since you last saw her," Dili Abasi said with a slight smile.

"Captain, I haven't fought enough yet, I'm not leaving," Nineteen Mao grumbled, clearly a bit displeased.

"In this broken world, I haven't been this happy in a long time! I'm not leaving!" Finci Dana said very seriously.

"Reason tells me it's best to leave now! But in this damned world, who lives by reason! If we're going to play, we should enjoy it to the fullest!" Jiaogen Jingcun said with a cynical air, as if he had to continue playing today, or he wouldn't be happy even if he died.

Pan Han looked at everyone and nodded firmly!

Perhaps this was what the system referred to as 'experience'!

"Let's head towards the center next. I guess the poison circle will get bigger and bigger, eventually leaving only a small safe zone in the center," Pan Han said, looking at the map, and led the team forward.

"Let's go, time to grab some treasures!" Everyone walked arm in arm, high-spirited, continuing their journey!

The Hungry Ghost Squad set off again, filled with excitement and determination, pressing onward.

Along the way, they encountered more Trial participants, but whenever Nineteen Mao made a move, the enemies had almost no chance to fight back and were quickly defeated.

After each victory, they would demand that the opponents hand over their treasures, showing no mercy, but absolutely never taking a life!

Those who were robbed, seeing the opponents were so principled, were also grateful!

Such a righteous force in this world was truly rare!

During the treasure-hunting process, the Hungry Ghost Squad's spoils became increasingly abundant, and their points soared.

They continuously traversed mountains, getting closer and closer to the center of the Trial grounds. The range of the poison circle was also gradually shrinking, forcing them to move more quickly.

However, they were not the only team; other Trial participants were also heading towards the center, competing for treasures and points.

As time passed, the battles became more intense and brutal. The enemies the Hungry Ghost Squad faced also grew stronger.

But they did not back down; instead, they united, cooperated with each other, and unleashed their strongest combat power.

Nineteen Mao displayed astonishing strength in battle, wielding his great axe like a storm, cutting down enemies, becoming the core of the team's combat.

Pan Han fully utilized the advantages of his mech, protecting his teammates while using precise attacks to help Nineteen Mao and the other members eliminate enemies.

Finci Dana showcased his unique skills, with rapid maneuverability and flexible attack methods, causing immense trouble for opponents.

Ouyang Feijin and Jiaogen Jingcun also utilized their respective specialties, engaging enemies and gaining more advantages for the squad.

Dili Abasi, on the other hand, used her speed and agility to provide support and cover for her teammates.

The Hungry Ghost Squad's combat power far exceeded expectations. They stood out among the Trial participants, becoming the focus of attention.

They fearlessly seized treasures, collected points, and engaged in desperate struggles with other Trial participants.

In this bloody and competitive Trial, the Hungry Ghost Squad shone throughout with their powerful strength and courage. Their name spread throughout the Trial grounds, becoming a topic of conversation among everyone.

Each victory made them more determined, and more eager for the taste of triumph.

The Hungry Ghost Squad finally arrived at the center of the Trial grounds, where the competition among Trial participants was most intense, and treasures were everywhere.

And Pan Han and his team already possessed treasures worth 700 points.

However, as soon as they entered the central circle, everyone spotted a group of people staring at them menacingly.

"Hey! Along the way, I heard there's a righteous force, that must be you guys!" The leader, strong and fierce, shouted loudly at Pan Han from a distance.

Pan Han adjusted his screen, zooming in to observe. This was a team of ten Trial participants, carrying a flag with four large characters: Thunder Squad!

Each Thunder Squad member was robust and imposing, wielding various powerful weapons, standing closely together, forming an unbreakable defense line.

It was like a wall of sighs, blocking Pan Han's path, not allowing him to advance further.

Pan Han, Nineteen Mao, and the others became serious upon seeing the Thunder Squad.

They knew the ultimate challenge had arrived.

These people clearly weren't easy to deal with.

Each of them had the physique and imposing aura of Nineteen Mao!

"Wow, so handsome! So manly!" Dili Abasi drooled directly upon seeing the Thunder Squad.
