His thoughts were interrupted by the voice, and Bai Ye couldn't help but look in its direction.
Behind him stood a man, about thirty years old, dressed somewhat strangely in an ancient-style robe, with a black hairband on his head and carrying a three-foot-long sword.
Bai Ye was stunned and said, "Someone from the Wuxia world?"
Bai Ye sized up the man's face, feeling a sense of familiarity, especially the small mustache, which was unforgettable.
Yes, it was this damned fellow who had chased him all over the world battlefield when he first entered. He had no choice but to flee into the underground sewers, enduring unimaginable stench, to save his life.
At the same time, the man who had suddenly appeared raised his sword.
"Disciple of the Sun Moon Holy Cult, Zhang Yeshan," the man sneered, looking at Bai Ye and saying, "Kid, ready to die?"
As Zhang Yeshan spoke, he flicked his wrist.
The three-foot-long sword in his hand danced like a silver snake emerging from its den. In an instant, silver sword light swirled, exuding a chilling aura.
As the sword light swept around, cuts appeared on the ground, looking shocking. One could imagine that if it struck a person, limbs would be scattered everywhere.
This swordsmanship was clearly skilled!
Even if not a top master, he could be considered a first-class swordsman!
Then...
*Bang!*
Bai Ye suddenly raised his pistol and pulled the trigger.
The next moment, the swirling sword light vanished instantly.
A blood hole appeared on Zhang Yeshan's forehead. The man fell straight backward, and after hitting the ground, he was completely silent.
"You have killed a participant (Wuxia world)."
"For the first time completing the killing of a Wuxia world participant, you have received a reward: a fragment of the Sunflower Manual."
Bai Ye glanced disdainfully at the corpse on the ground and casually tucked his gun back into its holster.
What a joke, Sun Moon Holy Cult disciple, don't they know I know the One-Yang Finger?
Although I've returned to ten years ago, I'm not the me who was chased back then!
However, thinking about it, Bai Ye suddenly felt a bit melancholic. Zhang Yeshan, who had once chased him, had appeared. It seemed he had truly returned to ten years ago, all because of that damned "Try Again" card!
The situation was infuriating, but since it couldn't be changed, he could only accept it.
He had fought and conquered on this battlefield before. What's wrong with doing it again?
Bai Ye displayed a sense of fearlessness. He could succeed once, he could succeed a second time.
Therefore, he should consider his current situation!
Bai Ye looked at the projected light screen again.

[The average baseline for an adult's physical data is 10]
A ancient book had appeared among his possessed items. Bai Ye flipped through it casually. The first page was written with bold strokes: To practice this skill, castrate yourself.
Then...
It ended!
Bai Ye was instantly bewildered.
So, the fragment meant only the part about castration, and then the martial arts part was gone?
Who would be willing to cut themselves?
Bai Ye decided to pretend he never got it. It was too much of a rip-off!
Next were his current physical data. Bai Ye looked at it and felt deeply ashamed. He was holding back all the adults in the world.
Strength, speed, and stamina were all below the adult average. Bai Ye had forgotten that he was a weakling among weaklings ten years ago, whose biggest dream was for his paper wife to come to life. Only his intellect and spirit attributes were above the average line.
However, there was good news. Although Bai Ye had lost everything upon returning to ten years ago, Loki's Gacha Machine had come back with him.
Even though the thought of "Try Again" made Bai Ye angry, it was undeniable that in his previous life, Loki's Gacha Machine had been crucial to his reaching the end of the world battlefield.
[Loki's Gacha Machine]
Description: A masterpiece from the God of Mischief. You can find anything you desire from the gacha. As for what you'll get, it depends on your luck.
Usage Rules 1: Within twenty-four hours, you can only obtain three gachas. The usage count resets to zero at midnight each day.
Usage Rules 2: If you are willing to offer God Stone Fragments, you can exchange them for a chance to draw a gacha of a specified color.
This item was obtained by Bai Ye from the ruins of a divine relic after a great deal of effort. Each time he turned the gacha machine, Bai Ye could get a gacha containing different abilities, weapons, or items.
The quality of the items was generally distinguished by color, with white being the worst, followed by green, blue, black, red, and gold.
To use the God of Mischief's masterpiece, luck was important.
But overall, this gacha machine was mostly reliable, only occasionally being a rip-off...
After pondering over the data panel, Bai Ye quickly realized what he needed to do. He had to improve his physique as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if the gacha machine provided him with powerful weapons, he might not be able to unleash their full potential with his weak body.
To put it more bluntly, his frail body could become an opening for opponents during combat. Therefore, this was a weakness that Bai Ye urgently needed to address.
"Apocalypse Ruins..." Suddenly, Bai Ye had an idea and muttered, "If it's the Apocalypse Ruins region, there really is a good place for me."
There were many regions in the world battlefield, generally divided into three types. The first type was the normal region, where the danger was usually not high, and its main purpose was to find some general weapons and supplies.
The second type of region was called a dangerous region. These areas were usually quite perilous, with all sorts of monsters or natural disasters. The benefit was that people could find some good items to enhance themselves in dangerous regions, and the supplies were also more abundant. The disadvantage, of course, was becoming a corpse more easily.
The third type of region was called a forbidden zone. These were the most dangerous areas, closely related to certain worlds, and had their own stories. Entering these areas would also trigger forbidden zone missions. If completed, one's strength could usually be significantly improved. And God Stones only had two channels of production: the first was from the chosen ones of various worlds killing each other, with a certain probability of obtaining them upon defeat. The second channel was the forbidden zones.
Bai Ye's target was the forbidden zone in the Apocalypse Ruins—the Umbrella Corporation Underground Base!
