The entrance to the Netherworld dungeon.
With a flash of green light, figures began to appear one after another, only to find themselves being teleported out by the portal as members of the Hidden Dragon Society had cleared the dungeon.
Wang Ling had already led his men to wait and immediately stepped forward to greet them. 138 Reading Network.
Xue Cheng glanced at Wang Ling and frowned, "Why are there so few people?"
Xue Cheng was also an old acquaintance of Bai Ye from his previous life, one of the initial core members of the Hidden Dragon Society.
Although as the Hidden Dragon Society developed and expanded, many early core members were gradually replaced, and in the end, the Hidden Dragon Society was no longer an organization purely centered around a single world.
However, Xue Cheng had remained a steadfast member of the elite group of the Hidden Dragon Society and had consistently held the position of team leader for the elite group.
On one hand, he had the definite advantage of being a direct descendant. On the other hand, Xue Cheng's abilities and strength were quite good.
After all, this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak, and being able to fight was very important.
And Xue Cheng was the leader of this virtual game restricted zone operation.
Wang Ling lowered his head and gritted his teeth, "Something happened."
Xue Cheng asked, "What happened?"
"Several brothers are dead," Wang Ling said. "A master from the Evil Spirit Gang appeared, and he was incredibly difficult to deal with. If I hadn't led the men and run fast, all our brothers would have been lost."
"Oh?" Xue Cheng raised an eyebrow. "That formidable? With your skills, leading seven people, and more than half of them were killed by the opponent, not only could you not defeat them, but you were almost annihilated?"
Wang Ling gritted his teeth, "Yes!"
Such a shameful matter, no one would want to admit it, but that was the reality. Wang Ling could not deny it even if he wanted to. After all, the people were already dead. What was the use of denying it? Could he conjure people out of thin air?
Xue Cheng said, "This is interesting. Is the person the Evil Spirit Gang found really that strong?"
Wang Ling replied, "Extremely strong. He looked about twenty-three or twenty-four, and he was quite good-looking. He might be from the superpower world. The superpower he used was controlling lightning, but the intensity of his superpower was far greater than that of ordinary lightning control superpowers. Without risking our lives, we couldn't withstand even one of his moves."
"Hehehehe..." At this moment, a strange laugh rang out. "Is he really that strong? Or are you deliberately exaggerating the opponent's strength to cover up your own incompetence?"
Wang Ling was instantly furious, but upon seeing the other party, he forcefully swallowed his words.
It was an extremely strange man, wearing a black long apron and having long, curly black hair. His entire body was wrapped in bandages, revealing only one bloodshot eye.
Simultaneously, the man had no hands. Beneath the bandages, from where his wrists should be, were a pair of sharp long blades.
As their gazes met, Wang Ling swallowed hard.
Xue Cheng was indeed the leader for this operation, but Wang Ling was also a captain in the elite group.
Therefore, among the people who came this time, besides Xue Cheng, he held the highest position.
Wang Ling did not enter the game dungeon not because of his strength, but purely to lead the remaining members and be responsible for command.
However, this person before him, although not as high in position as himself, Wang Ling dared not provoke him.
No, this person was not human at all!
Cutting King, his race was...
A freak!
As everyone knew, the World Battlefield was not only populated by humans. Various worlds also contained species other than humans. Elves and dwarves were relatively common.
Of course, there were also less common ones, such as the Predator.
And "freaks" were also a group, originating from a world where superpowers and the apocalypse coincided.
In that world, creatures that deviated from the normal human scope were classified as freaks. Most of these freaks were harmful to the world, brutal, and would attack humans madly.
To counter these freaks, humans had also classified their strength, referring to them as disasters, from lowest to highest: Wolf, Tiger, Demon, Dragon, and Calamity.
The Cutting King before them was a Demon-class freak.
Demon-class, in that superpower world, represented a disaster level where one person could paralyze or directly destroy a town's functionality.
In terms of position, Cutting King was merely a member of the elite group, but...
This guy was a lunatic, a bloodthirsty lunatic. After coming to the World Battlefield from his own world, this guy was in his element, because the World Battlefield was a world where one could kill without any scruples.
However, although everyone was doing this, the fundamental reason was to survive, or to leave the World Battlefield.
But Cutting King didn't care. He wasn't even interested in God Stone fragments. He just wanted to kill people.
For a place where he could kill without restraint and not be held accountable, he loved it immensely.
His continuous joining of the Hidden Dragon Society was because the Hidden Dragon Society could provide him with "trapped beast" killing grounds like restricted zones, which was much more convenient than him finding restricted zones himself.
Facing such a character, Wang Ling also avoided him. When this guy had an episode, he wouldn't care about his position and would just hack and slash as he pleased.
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Cutting King said with a strange laugh. "Is that guy really that strong? Or are you afraid of being held accountable?"
Wang Ling did not want to provoke Cutting King, but he also would not admit what Cutting King had said. He snorted and replied, "If you want to know, you can go and fight that guy later to find out."
Cutting King laughed strangely, "If he is as strong as you say, I would really like to spar with him."
Just then...
"Are you guys talking about me?"
Bai Ye's voice suddenly rang out.
Wang Ling was startled and quickly looked in the direction of the sound, and at the same time...
Rumble, rumble, rumble...
The ground around them suddenly trembled with a loud noise.
Then...
In front of the game dungeon entrance, huge cracks appeared in the ground, and then, one stone wall after another suddenly rose up, encircling the members of the Hidden Dragon Society.
The next moment, Gao Ming led his men out, bypassing the stone walls and quickly heading towards the game dungeon.
Only one team could enter the game dungeon at a time, and there was a cooldown period after exiting. Therefore, theoretically, if development was peaceful, they could enter in turns.
However, the Hidden Dragon Society did not intend to do so. When they were not entering the game dungeon, they would occupy the entrance and directly monopolize the game dungeon.
So, what Gao Ming needed to do now was to lead his men into the game dungeon, and what Bai Ye needed to do was to stop the Hidden Dragon Society members, allowing Gao Ming to lead his men into the game dungeon smoothly.
Therefore, while Gao Ming led his men around the stone walls, Bai Ye stood on top of a stone wall.
