Mercenary's Journey of Suffering (Part 2)

Inside the toy factory, the sounds from not far away could be heard. Curious workers always wanted to know what was going on, and when they went to the entrance, they saw Liang Xing squatting on the wall in a carefree manner.

Since Liang Xing took over the toy factory, its revenue has been growing day by day.

The safety issues around this old factory building, of course, also need attention.

There isn't much foot traffic near the factory, mainly to prevent others from accidentally entering.

So, they simply put up a perimeter wall, less than two meters high, with a flat top. It's really just symbolic.

Liang Xing was squatting on the wall by the entrance, holding the Digivice in one hand and binoculars in the other, smiling happily.

"One~"

The first to lose combat capability was not the mercenary, Black Demon, who encountered Agumon's attack.

Small fireballs separated the three, and the other two were also attacked by Digimon.

Mr. Black was relatively lucky. He took three steps in two and dove into the bushes, successfully finding cover.

But he didn't see the enemy, and the unknown fear made him restless.

"Who?" Instinct drove him to suddenly turn around, and outside the bushes not far away stood a huge Candlemon.

There's nothing normal in this damn place!

The mercenary teacher cursed inwardly, then watched helplessly as the Candlemon grew hands and opened its eyes.

"Damn! Oh—my God!"

The Candlemon had a golden base, and on the candle were scarlet eyes and a fanged mouth. Even the flame on top seemed to have eyes and a mouth, and its hideous smile was chilling.

"Is this the grave you've chosen?" (Free Federation Language)

Although it's not yet artificial intelligence, the evolution of Digimon is itself an improvement of data.

Usually, the more Digimon interact with humans, the more likely they are to master human languages.

The Digimon that Liang Xing sent out were no exception.

As the master of the Digital World, Liang Xing can, of course, create Digimon at will.

But the Digital World, as a whole, is like moving one part affects the whole body.

This is the same as a programmer fixing a bug.

Except Liang Xing can also restore the Digital World to its original state, making everything go back to square one.

This also means that all the previous growth of the Digimon is nullified.

Even so, it's still much more convenient than being a programmer.

So, when absolutely necessary, pulling out a few Ultimate-level Digimon regardless of the consequences ensures safety without any problems.

Although, due to the lack of a physical body, the attacks of the Ultimate-level Digimon can only inflict fatigue.

But the amount of data is different, and the efficiency of inflicting fatigue cannot be compared.

One attack causes slight fatigue, versus one attack directly causing unconsciousness—these are two different concepts.

So, Liang Xing dares to squat on the wall in a swaggering manner to watch the fun. If you have the ability, come and cause him trouble!

Even the Liang Xing that the workers see is actually a projection. His real body is shifted a short distance away. The specific location will not be discussed in detail.

A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall. Liang Xing will never put himself in danger to watch the fun.

And the threat of the three mercenaries is far from reaching the point where Liang Xing needs to do everything at all costs.

Since this is the case, what's wrong with having a few people to help relieve stress after work?

Following the rules of the Digital World, the only Digimon accompanying Liang Xing is Agumon.

The Candlemon and the one that attacked the mercenary Jackal were both temporarily summoned.

But Liang Xing had expected this day long ago, so the temporarily summoned Digimon were usually given special treatment.

Therefore, they understand human languages, and are even proficient in multiple languages.

Candlemon also knew that its flames couldn't really ignite the grass, so it used the Free Federation language to try to intimidate him.

And Mr. Black has sharp eyes!

As soon as he saw the flame on Candlemon's head, he knew how dangerous the bushes were without even thinking.

He frantically left the bushes before daring to try to fight back.

His marksmanship was also very accurate, hitting Candlemon's eyes with every shot.

But he didn't know that the flame on Candlemon's head was where its DigiCore was located. This precise marksmanship didn't have the effect it should have.

Humans are instinctively afraid of the unknown.

The insurmountable unknown is even more depressing.

"Oh—my God! What the hell is this thing?"

Unheard of, and bullets are ineffective.

Mr. Black couldn't think of any other way to fight it, so he could only retreat again and again!

Candlemon simply followed, hopping along and pressuring Black Demon's positioning.

Fear had already destroyed Black Demon's conviction. He was at a loss, left to be driven by Candlemon.

This was much simpler than originally planned!

After all, Black Demon had a gun, but Liang Xing couldn't help Candlemon dodge gunfire.

Candlemon's Digicore was in the flame on its head. Once the flame went out, Candlemon wouldn't be able to maintain its life functions.

If Black Demon's aim was off, Liang Xing wouldn't have dared let Candlemon approach so brazenly.

Fortunately, his aim was quite accurate.

"Impossible... impossible... it's fake! All of it's fake!"

Black Demon had already lost his gun in the escape. He scrambled away from Candlemon, muttering incessantly, clearly unable to accept Candlemon's existence.

Because it rendered Black Demon's life's work meaningless.

What was the point of accurate shooting?

Useless!

This sudden surprise caused Black Demon's entire worldview to collapse.

Shouldn't he be sent to a hospital first in this situation?

On the other side, the mercenary Jackal was particularly unlucky.

His opponent was Impmon, the first Champion-level Digimon to be born in the Digital World, evolved from Goblinmon.

Thanks to the hacker trio, Liang Xing had acquired several Goblinmon.

After nurturing them for some time, he was able to create the first Champion-level Digimon.

With long white hair and horns, and a ferocious green appearance, Impmon wielded a huge bone club, and its debut immediately overwhelmed Jackal, swiftly stripping him of his fighting ability.

Jackal did resist. He fired a few shots based on instinct before he even saw Impmon.

But unfortunately, the Champion-level Impmon swung its huge bone club, and the bullet effects were knocked away (actually passing through Impmon's projection, but being blocked).

The damage that reality inflicts on Digimon projections follows the underlying logic that Liang Xing edited for the Digital World.

Real damage that can't cause harm will be covered by special effects, so it naturally won't affect the projection.

What kind of resistance could an ordinary human—even a mercenary—offer against Impmon's sudden attack?

With just one punch, the huge fist sent Jackal staggering backward, until he finally fell to the ground, a sense of powerlessness spreading through him.

Impmon grinned and charged forward, bringing its huge bone club down without hesitation. Jackal's vision went black, and a feeling of fatigue instantly engulfed him.

He was fortunate enough to be the first lucky person to fall asleep due to a Digimon attack. The fatigue, which wouldn't harm his body, would let him get a good night's sleep.

As for where he'd wake up?

That wasn't Liang Xing's concern.

After all, mercenaries were so dangerous. It was best to hand them over to Huaxia to deal with.

Liang Xing was just a toy merchant. He didn't dare deal with these armed thugs.
