"The thief is dead?"

Beside a wooden cabin in the Dark Wood, dozens of fallen Rogue female gunners lay in pools of blood. Several reincarnators beside the corpses stared in disbelief at the information on the Yellow Paper.

"The traveler who lives in the shadows has actually been killed. What do you think of this, Mad God?" The captain of the Reincarnator Squad asked a green-skinned orc reincarnator beside him.

"Ever since that guy acquired the Undead bloodline, all he does is resort to sneak attacks. I told you long ago, he's not the kind of teammate you can trust!"

The reincarnator known as the Mad God possesses orc blood and wields a longsword in both hands. With a single strike, he cleaved a "beast" in two.

Doom Blade!

A cursed two-handed sword; one would not dare to use it lightly without sufficient strength.

The Mad God, however, fell in love with the two-handed sword the moment he obtained it. No one among the Reincarnators was more mad than him. His top-tier combat strength, Frenzy orc bloodline, and power-first special skills made him the absolute ace of the team.

"That being said, being able to take down thieves, that Xu Hao is definitely not a simple character!" She is the only woman in Xu Hao's squad, and also a very rare mage.

She toyed with the metal Magic Wand in her hand, and every now and then a spark or a bolt of lightning would shoot out from the expensive gem at the top of the wand. Although she had a sweet and lovely appearance, those who knew her well called her a "Witch".

"Although I don't like that thief either, he was still our teammate. If we don't avenge him after he was killed, it will damage our reputation, so..."

Beside the Mad God, a burly man completely covered in metal armor coldly said, "Our plan has to change. Abandon the mission. The four of us will each take charge of a reincarnation squad and wipe them all out!"

"If we kill all the other reincarnators besides ourselves, then our little team will undoubtedly be number one. That's the safest approach. Don't forget, violence is the ultimate weapon for solving problems!"

This person, although not the captain, is the strongest reincarnator in the [number]th squad.

Blink-level, Death Knight, numbered.

His words were orders, and even the so-called captain dared not disobey them.

Meanwhile, the Burial Grounds.

"Piaopiao, remember, violence is the ultimate weapon to solve problems. If our team falls behind in points, I will kill all the enemy Reincarnators. That way, as the only victorious Reincarnator team, we will return safely!"

Beneath Li Wei's feet lay a large number of skeleton remains and zombies.

At this moment, he understood to some extent the true purpose of this forced mission.

Those six missions are just smoke and mirrors; this is a more bloody and violent mission mode than the Kill Mode. I believe the other reincarnators also understand that the safest way is not to complete a mission, but to kill all the enemies.

"Piaopiao understands!" Liu Piaopiao's admiration for her master had reached its peak.

He single-handedly wiped out all the undead creatures in the cemetery, earning a large number of points and also acquiring many good items.

"However, we now hold the initiative. After all, we're ranked first based on points, so there's no need to kill anyone for the time being!"

Li Wei had one more thing he didn't say: if anyone foolishly came knocking on his door, he wouldn't mind sending them on their way.

At this moment, Li Wei was able to use the Shifting Forms and Changing Positions several times in a single day. This was also the first time he had discovered that Shifting Forms and Changing Positions could not only be used to escape but also to kill enemies.

Like a thief who likes to hide, he can take his opponent to a pre-prepared "battlefield" whenever he has the chance, limit the enemy's advantages, and thus defeat his opponent.

Thinking of his fallen comrades, Li Wei no longer felt the grief and anger he had at the beginning. "Those who kill me should be prepared to be killed by me"—this principle, no matter who it is or how strong the opponent is, cannot be changed.

After he and Liu Piaopiao left the Burial Grounds, they headed straight for the Stony Field that they had arranged to meet with Zheng Yutong and the others.

Along the way, they continued to rely on killing monsters to determine their direction. Several hours later, they arrived at the Stony Field and encountered the first wave of reincarnators who were hunting down Li Wei.

There were three people, two men and one woman, the strongest fighters among them, and some who were slightly weaker. From their faces, one could clearly see their longing for the mission to kill the Fierce Reincarnator.

The four-point team had enough points to be willing to take the risk.

"I have the special ability to see the other party's number. This person is the Numbered Reincarnator!" Among the three, the only woman stared at Li Wei. Judging from the weapon she was holding, she should be a ranged attacker.

The other two, one unarmed and the other wielding a spear, were clearly reincarnated individuals who had cultivated powerful martial arts. Upon hearing their female reincarnated companion's words, they both unleashed a surge of true energy, clearly intending to attack. "Master, should I help you!" Liu Piaopiao gripped her longsword, waiting only for Li Wei's command to step forward and fight.

"Step back, you can't handle the three of them!"

Li Wei dislikes wasting time because he believes that human life is composed of a certain amount of time, and wasting time is...

"Come at me all at once, of course. But that won't change your ultimate fate!"

Li Wei had grown to enjoy the feeling of slaying enemies with the Black Spiral Iron Sword. The smooth flow of internal energy allowed him to move with human-like agility, making killing easier and more addictive than slicing a melon.

"Arrogant!"

Although the three reincarnators verbally cursed Li Wei, none of them were willing to go up alone.

"Attack together!"

Ironically, while they verbally called Li Wei a madman, they launched their attack according to this madman's methods.

The first to attack was the unarmed man. He practiced hard-style internal energy cultivation, and his martial arts followed a masculine approach. In simpler terms, he didn't mince words; he went straight for the kill, emphasizing simplicity.

Li Wei neither dodged nor evaded, but simply circulated his true energy. He wanted to see whether his "Dragon Whisker Armor" would be effective against the opponent's attack.

The man wielded a set of long fist techniques with great force, taking a few steps forward before unleashing a "Back-Penetrating Punch). This was a move only someone extremely confident in their own offensive power would dare to use.

In reality, this move is a lose-lose situation; the powerful impact of the punch can injure not only the enemy but also the user.

This move is only used when the opponent's internal strength or physical power is inferior to yours.

With a muffled thud, the reincarnator's Iron Fist slammed into Li Wei's chest.

Li Wei could clearly feel that the Dragon Whisker Armor was providing protection. The protective true energy circulated on its own, forming a "clothing" of true energy on the surface of Li Wei's body that could withstand most attacks.

This burly man, Yan Ran, was one of the large group.

Where Li Wei was struck, a layer of air, like the surface of water, rose up. The "Back-Penetrating Punch" only produced ripples before being consumed by the air.

Without power, the punch can no longer injure anyone.

However, although no one was injured, the reincarnator was forced to cough up blood by the recoil, and his eyes now showed horror as he looked at Li Wei.

Li Wei did not move.

He was waiting for the next wave of attacks.

The other reincarnator's spear was now being used as his most powerful weapon. Seeing that his companion's attack was ineffective, he roared and thrust the spear forward.

The sharp metal spearhead, unlike a bare fist, is many times more powerful.

However, the spear, moving like lightning, stopped just centimeters from Li Wei's skin. His Dragon Whisker Armor was like mud, like iron armor; though the spearhead was sharp, it still couldn't pierce it.

"If your combat strength weren't above level one, you could definitely pierce me through!" Li Wei muttered to himself, but then swung the iron sword in his hand, producing a crisp metallic clang.

The metal spear in the reincarnator's hand was actually sliced in two.

"Combat strength is subpar, weapons are subpar, and even attack methods are so mindless!" Li Wei was already fed up with this game.

Li Wei raised his black iron sword and unleashed two sword energies, slashing down the ground towards the two men.

The two men had no time to dodge. They were instantly killed by the sword energy. Almost immediately, Li Wei felt a chill coming from behind him.

"It's that guy from the car!"

Of the three reincarnators, two had already died. At this crucial moment, the remaining woman, who was skilled in ranged attacks, used a huge crossbow in her hand to shoot an arrow at Li Wei.

The arrow pierced the air and slashed down.

The angle and timing were both perfectly chosen. Li Wei couldn't dodge in time and could only barely block the attack by swinging his Black Spiral Iron Sword.

"Snap!"

Li Wei's arm went numb.

Although they already knew that this woman was the only one among the three who had reached the highest level of reincarnation, they never expected that her attack methods and power would be so unexpected.

Li Wei sensed the power of the arrow he had just received. He knew his Dragon Whisker Armor would be no match for it. At that moment, the woman quickly nocked another arrow and aimed it at Li Wei's chest.

She had intended to smile, but through the scope attached to the crossbow, she caught a glimpse of a theatrical glint in the eyes of that numbered man.

That look in her eyes was strange, yet familiar. She often looked at people with that same gaze.

Suddenly, it dawned on her: that was clearly the look one would give someone who was about to die.

Is he pitying me? Why?

"Wait a minute, where's their female companion?" she suddenly realized.

However, it was too late by then!

A flash of sword light appeared, and the female reincarnator felt a chill on her neck before being plunged into darkness.

A jet of blood, more than half a foot long, spurted from her corpse. She twitched twice as if by nerve reflex, then collapsed to the ground, the crossbow in her hand falling into the hands of the man who had ambushed her from behind.

Beside the corpse, Liu Piaopiao was panting heavily. Although her expression showed some reluctance, her hand holding the long sword did not tremble uncontrollably like it had when she killed someone for the first time.

"The master is right. In this world, when faced with insurmountable problems, violence is the best option."

After muttering to herself, her gaze became extremely firm. The hand gripping the sword became even more steady.
