As long as there was a beginning, there would inevitably be an end.

Therefore, all things were destined to reach a time when they would end and perish.

That was what was known as a "Death Date."

From a realistic perspective, Kabane were beings transformed from the dead. Logically speaking, they should have already counted as dead things that had reached their Death Date.

Yet the individual before him had been reborn as a "Kabane," gaining a new Death Date as well.

Since it was something that could die, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could directly see its death.

It manifested as graffiti-like cracks known as Death Lines.

Those who possessed the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could cut through Death Lines and directly lead their target to "death."

A Steel Heart Membrane as hard as steel?

Something like that could not stop Fang Li at all.

Because Death Lines made no distinction between hard and soft.

No matter how hard something was, someone with the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could effortlessly cut along its Death Lines.

Therefore, as long as he could see the Death Lines, no defense was any different from paper before the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

"Crack—!"

With a crisp sound, a branch lying on the ground was forcefully snapped beneath a foot.

At that moment, Fang Li unleashed a speed he had never displayed before and charged at the Kabane lunging toward him.

What did 6 AGI mean?

Although the Main God Space stated that the average values for a twenty-year-old human, aside from INT, were all 5, that standard was actually based on well-trained athletes.

Generally speaking, an ordinary young person who exercised regularly had an average value of 3 in every attribute aside from INT.

As for children and the elderly, since the Main God Space's attributes were quantified for combat purposes, those two groups were not included in the calculations. Otherwise, Fang Li's attributes would not all have been 1.

In other words, Fang Li's current speed was actually superior to that of well-trained sprinting athletes.

Thus, less than three seconds after Fang Li burst out of the grass, the attacking Kabane had already closed to within one meter of him.

"Aaaahhhh—!"

A beastlike roar squeezed out of the lunging Kabane's throat.

The monster known to be nearly immortal stretched out arms as sharp as claws toward the charging Fang Li, grabbing for his shoulders like a pair of pincers.

If those pincers caught him, then with Fang Li's physical strength, he would definitely be unable to escape.

Immediately afterward, the Kabane's fangs would bite into Fang Li's body, drain his blood, and turn him into one of its own kind.

But Fang Li paid it no heed. His pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes stared at only one thing.

That was the Death Lines covering the Kabane's entire body.

Including the hands reaching for him. They had them too.

"Swish..."

A faint tearing sound suddenly rang out.

Just as the Kabane's pair of powerful hands were about to seize Fang Li's shoulders, the sharp dagger suddenly sprang up, turning into a cold flash that swept across the arms reaching for him like pincers.

AGI represented agility.

It did not only include movement speed; attack speed was included as well.

Therefore, Fang Li's attack speed was equally fast. At such close range, his sudden strike sent the dagger across those arms almost instantly.

"Rip—!"

Accompanied by a tearing sound like fabric being ripped apart, the sharp dagger plunged into the muscles of those arms and sliced through them with extreme ease.

Crimson blood and the powerful arms flew into the air together before splattering onto the ground.

"Uaaahhhh—!"

The charging Kabane let out a howl of agony, blood spurting from the stumps of its severed arms like fountains.

It was an extremely bloody and brutal sight.

For a student who was still receiving an education, such a scene would have been enough to turn their face pale.

Yet Fang Li remained unmoved from beginning to end. Whether it was his gaze or expression, both remained terrifyingly calm.

Crimson blood splashed onto his face.

Miserable screams echoed beside his ears.

Even under such circumstances, Fang Li did not stop. As he brushed past the armless Kabane, he spun, and the dagger in his hand became a streak of cold light once more, slicing through the Kabane's legs.

The Death Lines that only Fang Li could see were effortlessly cut apart.

Such an outcome led to only one result.

"Rip—!"

Amid an oddly pleasant sound of flesh tearing, the Kabane, a monster known as immortal, had both legs severed at the roots.

A large amount of blood splashed across the surroundings once again.

Thus, the Kabane, reduced to only a torso, crashed to the ground with a "bang."

This time, it did not even have the chance to scream.

The next second, the gleaming dagger descended and plunged into its glowing heart.

"Crack—!"

A sound like shattering glass suddenly rang out.

It was the sound of the Kabane's Steel Heart Membrane and heart being smashed apart together.

After the sound faded, the forest returned to silence.

The ruined torso, soaked in blood, lay sprawled on the ground, unable to move in the slightest.

Looking down at the scene, Fang Li was somewhat dazed.

"Drip..."

A bead of blood fell from the dagger in Fang Li's hand, staining the ground red.

In less than a few seconds, a battle that had cost one side its life and ended with one side's death came to an end.

As the instigator of it all, Fang Li had only one thought.

"So killing someone is such a simple thing."

Yes.

Killing someone was such a simple thing.

As long as one held a weapon, taking a living life only required an instant. It was that simple.

Of course, whether a Kabane could be considered human was another matter.

Still, Kabane had also been transformed from humans. Even as monsters, blood still flowed through their bodies.

If it had been someone else, their first killing would probably have brought more thoughts, more emotions, wouldn't it?

Unfortunately, even being granted that kind of luxury was too much to ask for Fang Li.

Therefore, Fang Li's first killing left him with only such a simple impression.

Only then did the Main God Space's cold system voice finally arrive.

"Kabane killed. Obtained 100 Exchange Points."

The belated system announcement made Fang Li pause slightly before he came to a realization.

"So that's it. Is this where the possibility of completing Main Mission Three lies?"

The requirement for Main Mission Three was to obtain 3000 Exchange Points.

But where was he supposed to obtain those 3000 Exchange Points?

Now, Fang Li knew.

If killing one Kabane earned 100 Exchange Points, then all he had to do was kill thirty Kabane to obtain 3000 Exchange Points.

For a newcomer who had just entered the space, that was undoubtedly an extremely difficult task.

Yet Fang Li had easily overcome that difficulty.

Before the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, as long as there were Death Lines, there was nothing that could not be killed.

And Death Lines did not distinguish between hard and soft.

Even with only the most ordinary dagger in hand, Fang Li could rely on the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception to ignore any defense, strike directly at the Death Lines, and lead his target straight to death.

"Ten Kabane?"

"3000 Exchange Points?"

"For me, completing Main Mission One and Main Mission Three is actually the easiest part."

Muttering to himself, Fang Li turned his gaze toward the woods nearby.

There, shadow after shadow emerged in succession, bringing one Kabane after another, swaying like walking corpses, into Fang Li's sight.

"This number is a bit troublesome."

Though he said so, Fang Li had no intention of retreating.

Looking at the group of at least twenty or thirty Kabane, Fang Li took a deep breath, wiped the blood from his face, flicked the droplets of blood from his dagger, and slightly raised the corners of his lips.

"Though it's a little troublesome, this life was picked up for free anyway. It doesn't matter if I die one more time!"

"Watch me kill every last one of you!"

Though he said that, with Fang Li's strength, there was no way he could survive being attacked from all sides by twenty or thirty Kabane.

Therefore, Fang Li leaped and darted into the bushes beside him.

And so, a slaughter began.
