Lulumiao

Late February.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, Soren, amidst his busy preparations, finally received a response from the Eastern Pirate.

The other party wanted to sit down and talk with him.

In this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. The disruption of the Eastern Route not only harmed Soren, but also prevented them from transporting valuable Eastern goods to the South Coast for profit. Compared to the more Fertility southern regions, the Eastern Desert Eastern Desert covered a vast area, reaching up to two-thirds of the land due to energy mutations left over from the Arcane Empire era. This immense Desert Region severely limited the Eastern World's output, making Trade the most important source of income for Eastern Pirate.

The next morning.

In the waters east of the Sand Fury Island, Soren spotted a fleet of ships from the east.

It's hard to believe, but the largest force among Eastern Pirate was actually a pirate crew controlled by a group of Monk.

Lawful Evil Monk.

They can be found among Desert Bandits and Eastern Pirate, and are considered a rather formidable enemy.

The one sent to negotiate with Soren this time was a Monk, and a Legendary Monk at that. As soon as the Dragonhead Warship approached, several figures flew out from the Eastern Pirate ship opposite. These Eastern Monk, dressed in tight-fitting clothes, landed directly on the sea surface and then moved forward at high speed on the Seawater, eventually landing on the deck of the Dragonhead Warship.

--"Lingbo Step!"

The special skills of Eastern Monk belong to a kind of closely guarded secret technique.

These Monk appear to have distinct East Asian features, though it's hard to describe precisely, but they do look about 70-80% similar to people of Indian descent.

Soren stood on the deck with a cold gaze.

As the Eastern Monk before him sized him up, Soren was also observing him.

This is a Legendary Monk is not very old.

Judging from his appearance, he wasn't very old. His looks weren't too different from the East Asians Soren remembered. Although his skin was more like that of a sub-species, his forehead, nose, and eye sockets had very obvious Western features. His gaze was quite sharp, and his palms were calloused. Monk were skilled in hand-to-hand combat, and their palms were practically Iron Body. What was most striking was his skin. It had a slight golden tint, like yellow skin that had turned golden over a certain degree.

--[Transcendence]!

The unique abilities possessed only by Legendary Monk.

However, Soren preferred to call it ' Indestructible Vajra Body ' because after Monk cultivate to the Legendary level, they become immune to disease and toxins, and never Aging further, only dying when their lifespan is reached. Ordinary weapons cannot harm them, and they possess astonishing resistance to Spell. Legendary Monk are among the most difficult enemies to deal with.

"Your Mightiness!"

The Legendary Monk stared at Soren, seemingly finding it hard to believe that he was the legendary Headhunter, Soren.

Judging from his appearance, Soren is far too young.

Moreover, judging from his strength, Soren doesn't seem to have reached the Legendary level yet, at least not at the Legendary. This is because Legendary Professional undergo a kind of spiritual sublimation. As Legendary Monk with high perception, he could sense this. However, Soren's reputation was built up with countless lives, and although the other party had some doubts, there was no disrespect in the slightest.

"Please!"

Soren gestured with his hand in invitation, while glancing at the three Monk behind him.

They are all high-level professionals.

The Eastern Pirate ' foundation remains as strong as ever. When he traveled to the Eastern World, he witnessed many Legendary powerhouses. Perhaps due to the energy mutations of the Arcane Empire era, or perhaps because the environment was too harsh, the Eastern World frequently saw the appearance of Evil Creature, Evil God, and Godspawn. There was even a Monk's monastery that even Soren at his peak dared not enter, built directly above the lair of some Ancient Evil Creature. (Note: Its name seems to be "Phaerimm," a terrifying Evil Creature that brought an era to an end.)

One of the tenets of the Monk ' teachings is to guard against these Ancient Evil Creature.

This applies to Monk of Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, and Lawful Evil alike. Monk from all three Alignment come from many different monasteries, but their Lawful nature remains. Their mission is to prevent those Chaotic Evil Hit Points from causing greater destruction. Even among Adventurer were once mainly active in the Eastern World, some have claimed to have seen legendary Monk of class level 40.

Soren didn't believe it.

Because a level 40 Monk already has almost off-the-charts combat power.

Neither physical attacks nor Spell damage could threaten him. Soren estimated that the most powerful Monk in the Eastern World were only around level 30. (Note: Legend has it that the Godsbane of Slaughter who created the [Moon Shadow Style] and [Solar Flare Style] was level 40.)

This is the limit he estimated!

Sand Fury Island.

Soren was in the hall negotiating with Legendary Monk from the East.

However fierce the fighting may be, in the end they will still have to sit down and negotiate, because the East Coast South Coast are far apart, and they cannot form a situation of fighting to the death.

There seemed to be sounds of arguing coming from inside.

But Vivian didn't care about any of that. What interested her were the three Baldy Monk outside, because she had once met one of Monk and he had even given her a small gift.

"Hello!"

The little girl, dressed in a black princess dress, tilted her head and sized up the Monk guarding the door, saying in a crisp voice, "I've seen people like you before. But he looks much more powerful than you."

The Monk outside the door remained silent, only staring at the little girl with astonishment.

"Boring."

Vivian looked at them and pouted, then suddenly her big, bright eyes darted around, and she said in a crisp voice, "I heard you have some really impressive fighting skills. Do you dare to have a match with my sidekick?"

The three Monk exchanged glances, and one of them seemed to be eager to try.

However, when Vivian revealed the person she wanted to challenge them to, the Monk's face immediately showed disappointment, and he even looked somewhat amused and exasperated.

That's right.

Vivian's chosen candidate is Lulumiao!

Lulumiao was wearing a pink dress today, with lots of sweet candies hidden in her pockets. As Vivian's little follower, she basically spent the whole day following her around.

It's like her little tail!

Lulumiao, who had just finished stealing a candy, was caught and brought to the front with a blank expression, looking around in confusion.

Don't underestimate her!

Vivian snorted and pouted, "You might not even be able to beat her!"

"Lulumiao."

"Fight that Baldy at the front, and if you beat him, I'll give you a day off, and I'll buy you whatever you want to eat!"

Meow!

The Catgirl, who had been looking blank, lit up instantly when she heard that she could eat whatever she wanted. Almost without thinking, she lunged forward in a blur, her sharp claws flashing with a cold light.

Bang bang bang!

They exchanged three blows in an instant.

Lulumiao's petite figure flew backward and landed on the ground with a thud. She let out a slightly aggrieved meow, and looking at her soiled dress, a fierce glint Neutral.

She was angry.

Meanwhile, the high-ranking Monk had just fought her stared in astonishment at his chest, where three faint bloodstains were visible on his arm, chest, and abdomen. The enemy's attacks weren't Hit Points- threatening, but their speed was astonishing. Even as Monk with powerful senses, he couldn't keep up with the pace of her attacks. Although he managed to shake off the charging Catgirl, he was also scratched on the chest.

What kind of monster is this!?

The high-ranking Monk's expression turned serious. He clasped his hands together in Tiger Style stance, his gaze fixed on the petite Catgirl before him.

Even high-ranking Monk with the [Flurry of Blows] ability couldn't keep up with her attack speed; the Catgirl before him certainly possessed the strength to challenge him.

Vivian maintained a playful expression.

She seemed confident about the upcoming battle, appearing as if victory was assured.
