Yogurt Phobia

Jian Shaoxin almost hated Russell to death. Although it was later confirmed that the unknown liquid was just yogurt, and even fruit-flavored, she still felt terrible because she had developed Yogurt Phobia. She would feel nervous and uncomfortable whenever she saw yogurt, and in severe cases, she would also have an allergic reaction.

"I will repay you tenfold, a hundredfold, for the humiliation you have caused me!"

Russell was unaware that the girl had developed a mental illness because of him, and considered her unreasonable and ungrateful. Being caught in Team Battle and not killed, she should at least show some gratitude, if not offer herself in marriage. This attitude of wanting to die together... well, that's just...

After he left, someone went into the warehouse to learn from the senior expert who had covered her face!

Seeing Russell remain silent, Jian Shaoxin's anger intensified, and she used her Teleportation gripping her short dagger. Although Captain Shen Menghan repeatedly warned her to back down when encountering Russell and to contact the other members to fight together, she knew she had to take revenge herself; only by defeating Russell could she escape the psychological shadow cast by Yogurt.

To this end, she even bought ingredients and cooked a pot of paste, just in time to return it to Russell after he was captured alive.

Brush!

A flash of white light, Jian Shaoxin instantly appeared beside Russell, thrusting her short dagger down.

It was incredibly fast, too fast for the naked eye to see!

Teleportation is the best skill for escaping, and it's also a frequent and deadly move in combat, making it difficult to defend against. Its ability to ignore combat distance makes it impossible for opponents to observe the user's movements, leaving them only able to passively defend and unable to launch an effective counterattack.

Previously, Russell could only rely on his Sixth Sense to deal with her, and Jason would have to launch a surprise attack to defeat her. However, having been equipped with Ximen Chuixue's items, his swordsmanship was already at the master level. The moment his opponent appeared, his longsword swept across her with a speed faster than his nerves could react.

Bite!

Sparks flew as Jian Shaoxin was forced back by the immense force. Having failed in her first attack, she teleported back behind Russell and changed her aim, thrusting her short dagger towards Russell's lower back.

Russell shifted his stance, dodging the short dagger without even looking behind him. He then flipped his wrist, flicking the long sword back and thrusting it straight at Jian Shaoxin's face.

Jian Shaoxin's impression of Russell was still from the last time, when Russell's sword moves, like a gazelle hanging its horns, left her flustered and unable to defend herself, so she could only Teleportation away to the side.

"Is it just my imagination? How did I suddenly become so strong?" Jian Shaoxin took a deep breath and, refusing to believe it, activated Teleportation again.

To her horror, Russell's strength had truly increased; his attacks were as swift as a ghost, and his reaction speed far surpassed hers. No matter where Russell attacked from, he could always detect it instantly, and even if she was only halfway through a sword move, he could change his attack at the most opportune moment, his skill was simply unbelievable.

Despite her continuous Teleportation, she didn't even touch Russell's clothes, and instead found herself in danger multiple times.

Jian Shaoxin even felt that if she didn't have the ability to Teleportation, she might have been crushed by the continuous sword force within three moves.

"What's wrong with this guy? He's completely transformed, like a different person..."

Jian Shaoxin teleported ten meters away, looking at Russell remained calm and composed, his aura unchanged, a bead of cold sweat trickling down her temple. The captain was right; Russell's strength was greater than she had imagined. She alone would have a hard time curing her Yogurt Phobia.

Rumble!!!

The muffled sound of propellers came from high above, blinding searchlights swept back and forth across the ground, and the faint rumble of tracks grinding against the earth could be heard.

Russell turned to look at the sky and saw more than a dozen military helicopters circling in the night sky. It wasn't that the America police hadn't taken action, but rather that the government had directly deployed the military.

Helicopters and Tank —presumably, a blockade has already been set up around the perimeter!

"What a huge appetite! They actually want to wipe out Reincarnator in one fell swoop. Or perhaps, this is one of the ways the God of War increases the difficulty of Team Battle..." Russell muttered to himself. He had already racked up enough kills and had no reason to fight the army. He needed to withdraw as soon as possible before the encirclement closed in.

"Wait, where are you going? Our battle isn't over yet!"

Jian Shaoxin teleported in front of Russell, blocking his path, and did not choose to attack from behind, which shows that she was serious about this duel.

Russell snorted coldly, his eyes blazing with blue Magic Power light, and he swung his sword forward from under his belly.

A sharp sword aura sliced through the ground. Jian Shaoxin raised her short dagger and held it upright in front of her, intending to take the attack head-on. However, the sound of the air being cut made her cheeks flush. Startled, she realized that she couldn't withstand the sword aura and hurriedly used Teleportation to dodge.

Sizzle!

The sword energy pierced the air, splitting the grass beside the building in two. As its momentum ended, it cleaved a large tree in two and left a cut about an inch deep on the opposite wall.

"Hateful!"

Seeing the destruction caused by the sword energy, and glancing at Russell's receding figure, Jian Shaoxin gritted her teeth but ultimately did not chase after him.

"Just you wait, one day I will defeat you with my own hands!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Shaoxin vanished from the spot.

Unlike Russell's cautious approach, most of the Reincarnator were unimpressed by the army's appearance. They considered themselves superior to the natives, and inherently possessed a degree of arrogance and disdain, looking down on the indigenous people. Furthermore, when teams fought to the point of bloodshed, they became so engrossed in the battle that they disregarded who their opponents were and simply rolled up their sleeves and started fighting.

Under the night sky, a sudden explosion rang out, and the battle between the army and the Reincarnator escalated to a fever pitch.

A Tank was driving in the middle of the road when it was hit by a barrage of rifle fire, sending sparks flying. The Tank's gun barrel spun, but before it could even fire, it exploded on the spot into a scrap metal box.

A group of Reincarnator cheered and jumped for joy, when suddenly a searchlight shone down, followed by a barrage of fire from aircraft cannons. Caught completely off guard, they were torn to pieces on the spot before they could even scream.

Scenes like this are common on the streets and alleys; the smoke and blood stimulate the nerves of the Reincarnator, driving them to the brink of madness...

Russell wasn't that crazy. He knew how terrifying a modern army could be. If you don't have the physique of Superman or the Hulk, don't be arrogant in front of an army.

He cautiously explored the way out and discovered that a large number of soldiers had been mobilized, giving the army enough manpower to close the net. Every time the encirclement tightened, a team of soldiers would set up checkpoints on the spot.

Guards every three steps, sentries every five steps; besides heavy machine guns and Tank providing cover, snipers were also on standby in the shadows. Seeing a team of Reincarnator fail in their forced attempt to break through, only to be blasted to pieces by Tank shells during their retreat, Russell felt a pang of longing for his Teleportation ability card.

"If only I could fly..."

As Russell was speaking, he saw a power user engulfed in flames soar into the sky, shoot down two helicopters, and then be bombed by a ground-to-air missile, falling to the ground in smoke and turning into a bloody pulp.

"Uh, thank goodness I can't fly. If only the black-robed man had the ability to become invisible..."

Suddenly, the America machine gunners in the checkpoint opened fire on an empty corner, blood splattering everywhere, and a mangled corpse was scattered all over the ground.

"Tsk, a military thermal imager, they're really well prepared!"

Russell offered a silent tribute to the unfortunate soul who had met such a tragic end, then pushed aside the hard manhole cover on the ground with a sigh, "A bunch of idiots who only know how to solve problems with their muscles. Is it so hard to use your brain? If you can't go anywhere, just go underground..."

Boom! Rumble!!

Explosions continued to erupt from the sewers, and a strong wind blew, causing the black robe to flutter loudly.

Russell: "..."

What do you mean? You're not giving us any way out?

Standing on the shoulders of giants allows one to see further. Russell, standing on a pile of corpses, found himself with nowhere to go. Although he could use Shen Menghan's Character Card to force his way through, it would be too wasteful, and he couldn't bear to part with it.

After browsing through the cards for a few seconds, Russell spotted the one he hadn't deleted and stroked his chin, considering the feasibility. "Why don't we give it a try?"

The America soldiers in the checkpoint heard a noise from the corner of the wall. They turned their guns and saw a gray and white Husky trotting along the wall. The sergeant captain raised his fist to indicate that there was no need to fire, and let the husky slip out of the encirclement.

"Sir, a wolf ran past."

"Idiot, it can't be a wolf just by looking at its stupid face!"

"Yes, sir! What I mean is, orders from above must not be given to anyone, not even an ant."

"The higher-ups mentioned ants, but not dogs. Also, do you want to be sued by dog lovers tomorrow?"

"In no mood!"

"Shut your mouth if you don't want to, get down on the ground and look for ants. After tonight's battle, I want to see 1,000 dead ants."

The heavy casualties brought the Reincarnator to their senses, and they began searching for a way out. Their methods of escaping the blockade were varied and bizarre, but most ended in failure. Due to blind confidence, they missed the best time to evacuate. As the army's encirclement tightened, they no longer had enough space to survive, let alone escape.

Finally, they gathered together and stormed into the hospital, armed themselves and took patients hostage, used the hospital's terrain to confront the army, and threatened the army with hostages to demand that they leave.

Russell knew nothing about what happened at the hospital; all he knew was that a whooshing sound came from the direction of the coast, and then a certain place in the city center was turned into ruins.

Naval guns!

Clearly, the military is indeed a way for the main game to increase the difficulty; otherwise, no matter how reckless the America, it would not be possible to bomb the city center with naval guns.

Unless the America president in this world is an alien in disguise...
