Female student number 1, ID 123456, rating F2. Her four attributes are very uneven. Her lowest attribute, physical strength, is only 3 points, while her mental strength is as high as 18 points.
He was almost twice as tall as Li Wei when he first entered Shadow Street.
Who exactly is this girl? No wonder she was the first to wake up.
The tattooed man, also known as a thug and a rogue, is numbered 120014 and rated F1. None of his four attributes are particularly outstanding.
As for the muscular man, Li Wei took him seriously.
The muscular man's ID number is 130990, a standard rookie ID. However, his combat strength is actually E1, with all four attributes being three times that of an average person, especially his strength, which has reached 18 points.
What does this even mean? Could this guy be a real-world weightlifting champion?
Moreover, the fact that all three of them were willing to believe him based on their first meeting was strange to Li Wei; he wouldn't have done the same if it were him.
Let's think about these questions later.
Because Li Wei had already heard a large number of hurried footsteps.
It's here!
Pulling himself together, Li Wei looked in the direction of the footsteps. Soon, a man dressed as a bandit came into view.
Without the Eye of Perception, Li Wei was unable to obtain information about the target. Only then did he realize with surprise that he had relied too much on the convenience brought by the skill and had forgotten that careful observation could also reveal a great deal.
Suddenly, Li Wei had a sudden realization.
Soon, more than a dozen men dressed similarly appeared, each with short jackets, small clothes, strong arms as thick as thighs, faces full of fat and hair like steel brushes, and a fierce look.
'These are real robbers, damn it!'
The tattooed man, with an expression of adoration, had been studying how to instill fear in people the moment they saw him, and now he understood.
This is something I can't learn!
Compared to the bandits of Black Wind Stronghold, he was nothing but a pretty boy!
In an instant, Li Wei's fighting spirit was ignited. He ordered the three slaves he had just acquired to retreat, and then he suddenly leaped forward, charging towards the foremost bandit.
The bandit opposite him wasn't afraid at all. He chuckled, drew a large knife from his waist, and slashed down at Li Wei.
They unleash deadly attacks from the moment they meet, showing no mercy whatsoever; the bandits of Black Wind Stronghold are truly ruthless.
Having come to regard combat as commonplace, Li Wei instantly discerned the direction and angle of the steel blade's slash from the movements of his opponent's arms and muscles.
What surprised Li Wei was the opponent's strength.
When the steel knife sliced through the air, a faint ripple of air appeared around the blade.
"What is this?" Li Wei quickly turned to the side and reached out to grab the other man's wrist, but as soon as he touched it, the bandit held a knife in one hand and made a huge fist with the other, and smashed it down on Li Wei's head.
Call!
The pressure of the fist reduced Li Wei's eyes to pinholes.
In a flash, he bent down to dodge the attack, and at the same time, he struck out with a palm.
Cloud Piercing Palm!
It struck the man squarely in the chest, and with a crack, the man flew through the air.
The two exchanged only a few moves, but it was a huge shock to Li Wei. If he wasn't mistaken, that bandit was a 'Black Wind Stronghold Minion'.
How could an enemy who should be the lowest level possibly withstand three blows from me?
This reminded Li Wei of the Black Miao Leader, an insignificant bandit in the martial arts world, who possessed such skill as the Black Miao Leader. The only explanation for this abnormal situation was...
This mission wasn't targeting the group of newcomers behind them at all.
It's yourself!
It's fair to say that without him, the newcomer Black Miao Minion.
In an instant, the dozen or so henchmen arrived. Not only that, Li Wei also saw an even more imposing, burly man wearing a fur vest appear behind the Black Wind Stronghold Minion.
This must be one of the elite henchmen!
Li Wei took a dozen steps back and returned to the middle of the three people.
As for the mission assessment, Li Wei knew he had made a mistake this time. The Black Wind Stronghold Minion had just taken a blow from his palm was still alive, which was not a good thing. If he stayed here any longer, he could protect himself, but none of the three newcomers would survive.
But since we can't abandon the mission, it seems we have to find another way.
After quickly surveying the terrain, Li Wei pointed to a grove of trees. "Quick, all of you go in, run a hundred paces and then split up and hide!"
Having witnessed the battle just now, the three newcomers knew how powerful the Black Wind henchmen were, and they quickly ran towards the woods behind them.
Female student number 1 was wearing cartoon pajamas, which was quite eye-catching, and she didn't seem to be very fast. Seeing this, Li Wei stepped forward, picked her up, and carried her on his back, quickly running towards the woods.
Entering the forest felt like entering another world. The tall, thick trees effectively blocked the view. After running about a hundred paces, Li Wei stopped and put the female student, who was like a kitten on his back, on the ground.
"Find a good place to hide!" Li Wei only gave this one instruction before leaving.
The female student's face was flushed, as if she were about to burst into tears. She stared at Li Wei's retreating figure with unfocused eyes, lost in thought.
The tattooed thug, however, had already found a big tree and climbed up it.
Li Wei glanced at it and thought to himself that this guy was really clever to come up with such a trick.
The muscular man, on the other hand, didn't hide. Instead, he pulled out a military dagger from somewhere and stood next to Li Wei, seemingly ready for a fight.
Well, for them, a fight was inevitable sooner or later, and he also wanted to see what made this muscular man so special.
In the blink of an eye, the Black Wind Stronghold Minion caught up with them.
This time, there were only seven henchmen, plus one elite henchman. They were all seasoned bandits who had been robbing and pillaging in the wild for a long time. They moved quickly through the forest and soon surrounded Li Wei and the muscular man who had stayed behind.
"I can only handle one!" the muscular man said solemnly to Li Wei.
Deal with one? With that little dagger?
Li Wei smiled and took out a large sword from his storage space. This was a weapon left behind by the original 108 Guardian. Because it was a cold weapon, it could be used in this world.
Without saying a word, Li Wei simply handed the broadsword to the muscular man.
The latter was taken aback, looked at the small dagger in his hand, and felt that it was a bit unreliable to use this thing to fight desperately, so he did not refuse and took the big knife.
It's here!
Sensing the Black Wind Stronghold Minion around him, Li Wei decided to stop hiding his strength. He took a deep breath, mobilized his powerful internal energy, and unleashed seven palm strikes in an instant.
The second move of the Cloud-Piercing Palm: Rain-Covering Cloud-Turning!
Seven floating palm prints, like shooting stars, struck the seven people, including the elite henchmen, leaving only the henchman closest to the muscular man unattacked.
The henchmen seemed to understand Li Wei's power. They spotted the muscular man, yelled, and charged forward.
The muscular man was also full of fighting spirit, swinging his steel knife to clash with the henchman. The two quickly engaged in battle, and a series of cracking sounds of metal clashing could be heard. Surprisingly, the muscular man and the henchman were evenly matched.
This is definitely worth watching!
Li Wei felt relieved. He didn't want anything to happen to the slave he had just acquired, especially since this slave was such a good fighter!
The henchmen struck by the Rain-Covering Cloud-Turning technique were all seriously injured, but they were clearly skilled in martial arts, as they were only injured but not killed after being struck, and they still had the strength to fight again.
Especially that elite henchman, after falling to the ground, he almost instantly flipped up and jumped up, wielding his ghost-head broadsword, and launched a frenzied attack.
Li Wei didn't directly touch the broadsword; he relied entirely on his exceptional agility to dodge the storm of blades. The Rakshasa Three Forms had been integrated into every move he made.
Seizing an opportunity, Li Wei struck the elite henchman with a palm strike. If it landed, it would have instantly killed him. However, the elite henchman drew his sword to defend in an instant, and with a clang, Li Wei's palm slammed into the broad steel blade.
Although it was a palm, with the infusion of internal energy and the force of the Cloud Piercing Palm, it actually bent the steel knife. The elite henchman knew that this was a life-or-death moment, so he dropped the steel knife and punched Li Wei in the face.
Li Wei swayed, dodging the punch, and then slammed into the elite henchman's chest. The Qi Blast Technique exploded at his wrists, elbows, and joints, like a series of impact hammers, slamming into the elite henchman's chest.
There was no way to avoid it. The powerful force struck the elite henchman squarely, and blood immediately seeped from his ears and mouth.
This is close combat, a contest of strength, techniques, reflexes, and internal energy; a slight mistake can lead to death.
Without those powerful skills, he could only rely on real combat, which gave Li Wei an urge to try. Perhaps this was the quality that a martial artist must possess.
Once the elite minions are dealt with, the remaining enemies are no threat at all.
Li Wei channeled his inner energy and swung his palm to meet the attack. In that instant, a slight smile appeared on Li Wei's face, unseen by anyone, not even by himself.
Night is the prelude to dawn. As the morning sun shines on the emerald leaves, the insects hidden beneath them begin to awaken. However, they discover that this once peaceful forest now carries a strange, fishy smell.
The smell of blood!
The news traveled far and wide with the air, and even the wild beasts that roamed this area knew that a fierce battle had taken place that night.
Since it's a fight, there will definitely be bloodshed and people will die!
At this moment, lying on the grass are a large number of dead people.
Seven henchmen and one elite henchman were now cold corpses. Beside the bodies, Li Wei stared speechlessly at the female student and the tattooed thug, unsure of what to say.
The first female student is named Liu Piaopiao, and the tattooed thug is named Zheng Chenglong. Both of their names are absolutely hilarious. But the funniest thing isn't even their names.
It's not about their reactions after they kill.
The dagger that Liu Piaopiao was holding had fallen to the ground, and she kept muttering to herself.
"I killed someone! I killed someone..."
Li Wei initially tried to persuade her, but later he just let her be.
Some people are born bloodthirsty, while others have an instinctive aversion to killing. Clearly, Liu Piaopiao belongs to the latter category.
And that thug, Zheng Chenglong, was even more ridiculous.
He was excitedly shouting that he finally dared to kill someone, and that no one would dare to look down on him now. Li Wei had absolutely no interest in what this guy was saying.
These two guys could be considered to have completed their mission, because Li Wei threw the crippled henchmen in front of them and let them do it themselves. Only in this way would the Yellow Paper acknowledge that they had completed their mission.
Kill at least one Black Wind Stronghold Minion, mission accomplished!
At this moment, Li Wei sat alone on a wooden stump, reminiscing about the battle that had taken place the previous night.
Last night's battle was arguably Li Wei's most exhilarating fight yet, a pure clash of martial arts. The Black Wind Stronghold's henchmen were truly formidable; their skill was secondary, their real strength lay in their fearless and ruthless spirit.
However, apart from that elite henchman, the others were all crippled by Li Wei, while the elite henchman was blasted into a pile of mangled flesh by Li Wei's ten consecutive palm strikes.
Li Wei wasn't unscathed either; he had many cuts and gashes on his body. His Jade Set had inexplicably lost its defensive function at this point, but with so many restrictions, Li Wei didn't want to worry about it too much.
"Thank you for your knife!" At this moment, the muscular man slowly walked up to Li Wei and returned the nicked and chipped knife to Li Wei.
If we're talking about injuries, his was the most serious.
For a newcomer who hadn't undergone any training to be able to kill Black Wind Stronghold Minion while seriously wounded on his own— Li Wei admitted that he didn't possess that kind of courage and strength.
You should know that the muscular man's fight yesterday was completely uncompromising, a real clash of blows. He was covered in blood, and although he had applied the Golden Sore Medicine Li Wei had given him, he still looked gruesome.
But this guy is good, really good!
Li Wei has already begun to consider whether he should teach the other party the Innate Skill technique, so that he will definitely be one of his major combat forces.
I collected the items and Treasure Chest dropped by the Black Wind Stronghold Minion. There weren't many items, just a few steel knives used by the henchmen, some loose silver, and a token.
The token seemed to be quite popular in this era. Holding it in his hand, Li Wei examined it; it was made of fine black wood, with patterns and small characters engraved on it.
"Entry Permit!"
[Item: Black Wind Stronghold Entry Token. This token was specially made by the Black Wind Twin Fiends and allows unrestricted movement within Black Wind Stronghold. 'Sometimes, using it can help you avoid unnecessary battles!']
Li Wei shook his head, thinking that it might come in handy, and then stored it in his storage space.
Now, Li Wei took advantage of this break to carefully explain some precautions to the group, as well as the rules that slaves must abide by.
1. You must unconditionally obey my orders. 2. You must not harm or betray your master.
Li Wei's conditions were simple, but they were the most direct and effective.
A dozen minutes later, Li Wei left the grove with three people.
Just now, the Yellow Paper issued a second task. "Reach Luoyang City within three days. Those who fail to do so will be executed!"
