Crossing the wilderness to survive, starting with a broken kitchen knife.

The palms of those black hands, each half a man's height, crawled on their fingers, rapidly approaching Zhang Shi like spiders, their palms open to crush him. Zhang Shi wasn't afraid, merely experiencing a physical discomfort with these disgusting, bizarre creatures. He immediately slashed out with a shadowy force, cleaving the monsters in the area ahead in two. Refreshing his skills, Zhang Shi transformed into a long-range turret, unleashing a furious barrage of fire, quickly dispatching all the charging black hands.

As the fog dissipated, Zhang Shi discovered that the black hands had dispersed into pools of mud and were flowing towards the three-headed monster. Without hesitation, the crowd surrounded the monster and launched a fierce attack.

The three monsters had seen how powerful Zhang Shi and the others were. The old woman's head roared angrily while retreating backwards, while also using its two giant snake arms to spit out a wall of flames forwards.

Flames surged forward like a raging dragon. Zhang Shi dodged, using Shadow Step to swiftly leap along the edge of the flames, avoiding the blazing flames. His eyes fixed on the monster's every move, searching for an opening to strike back. Meanwhile, Zhao Feng swung his heavy battle axe, each blow carrying the force of a tsunami, forcibly carving a path through the flames and advancing directly upon the monster.

The Staff of Ancestors in Wu Qing's hand burst into a dazzling light. She had an indifferent expression and pointed the staff at the monster. She struck the opponent with punishment again, draining his energy and turning it into golden energy waves that shot out from the front, hitting the monster's body accurately again. Every blow made the monster roar in pain.

Ge Dalong stood at the rear of the group, rapidly forming seals with his hands. Countless tiny cones of ice condensed in the air. With a sudden wave of his hand, these cones, like sharp blades, spun and flew towards the monster, slicing through its scales and muscles. Although the monster possessed amazing regenerative abilities, under such intense attacks, its wounds continued to multiply, and its recovery was noticeably slowed.

Zhang Dazhuang uses his keen intuition and quick reflexes to roam around the team, firing precise bullets from time to time to provide fire support for his teammates. Each of his shots is carefully calculated, striving to leave a fatal blow at the monster's weakest link.

The battle entered a white-hot stage, and the hall was filled with the sounds of fierce fighting and the roars of monsters.

Zhao Feng led the charge, swinging his battle axe in a powerful sweep that twisted the air around the monster, piercing its neck. Wu Qing followed closely behind, unleashing a powerful protective barrier. Ge Dalong, taking advantage of the monster's heavy damage, concentrated all his cold energy, forming a massive ice sword, which he hurled at the creature. The ice sword traced a brilliant path through the air, piercing the monster's neck with pinpoint accuracy, instantly freezing the flesh and blood there. The entire monster was frozen for a moment, creating a perfect opportunity for his teammates to attack.

Zhang Shi also instantly got in front of the monster, and swept the knife across the monster's neck, trying to cut off all three heads at once.

The third head of the three-headed monster let out a cry, and a green light enveloped him. The ice flowers on his neck shattered at once, and the monster took a step back and narrowly avoided Zhang Shi's fatal blow.

After such a confrontation, the monster seemed to understand that Zhang Shi and others were not easy to deal with, and that it might be killed if it was not careful. It immediately stopped holding back and after keeping a distance, the three heads shouted towards the sky.

Instantly, the monster's flesh and blood fell off and fused together like mud, eventually reshaping its body into a more humanoid form. Although it was called a humanoid form, it was still a humanoid monster, with three heads and six arms, but it was a little slimmer and still twice the height of an ordinary person.

The monster's four humanoid arms extended, and in an instant, the "mud" on its body condensed into four different weapons, which it held in its hands. Zhang Shi took a quick look and was stunned. The weapons in the monster's hands were pitch black, and the details could not be seen, but the general shapes were clear: a kitchen knife, a staff, a magic wand, and a battle axe.

"What do you mean, is this copy and paste?"

The monster roared, and with a sweep of the hand holding the kitchen knife, a jet of black sword energy slashed towards Zhang Shi. The shape was exactly the same as the Shadow Slash. Zhang Shi quickly dodged. The solid wood table and chairs behind him were hit by the sword energy and broke into two pieces, and the sky was filled with flying wood chips.

"Fuck, this guy is so powerful that he can even copy skills?"

As if responding to Zhao Feng's words, the monster swung its wand, and three icicles condensed from midair, shooting towards them. Ge Dalong quickly unleashed a wall of water to block the attack, while also hurling several icicles in retaliation. Zhao Feng followed closely behind, his battle axe raised, ready to subdue the monster with force and test its strength.

The three-headed monster swung its kitchen knife, blocking Zhang Shi's attack. Then, ice armor appeared on its body, blocking both the ice cone and Zhao Feng's attack. The ice armor shattered, and ice shards struck the two men, forcing them to retreat and gain distance.

Zhang Shi stared at the kitchen knife in the other man's hand with a serious look. For so long, Old Duan had always been invincible, but this was the first time he had seen an object that could stop Old Duan.

"Is it because of the copied attributes?"

The three-headed monster, taking advantage of its power, pointed its finger at Zhang Shi through the air. Zhang Shi felt his strength drain away, his legs weakening to the point where he could barely stand. It was a punishment. The monster copied everyone's skills, and Zhang Shi's energy transformed into streaks of golden light that struck him. Ge Dalong quickly cast an ice armor on him to block the damage.

Zhao Feng pulled Zhang Shi to his feet and retreated to the back, while Zhang Shi shoveled down various medicines and food to replenish his energy. The monster's Shadow Slash followed, and Zhao Feng raised his battle axe to block it. Unexpectedly, the monster attacked proactively, using Shadow Step to move behind the recuperating Zhang Shi. Battle axe and kitchen knife rained down on Zhang Shi from both sides.

"Cang! Cang!"

Two crisp metallic sounds were heard. Zhang Shi was glad that the copied Old Duan did not have the ability to cut iron like mud. The black light armor helped him block the attack, otherwise he would have been a headless corpse by now.

Despite this, the impact still made him dizzy. Zhang Shi forced himself to use the Shadow Step to move away, while his teammates on the side also used their magical powers to entangle the monster, buying time for Zhang Shi.

The monster looked around and finally set its sights on Zhang Dazhuang who was aiming and shooting. It seemed that it had determined that he was the easiest target. It released Shadow Step again, appeared behind him, and chopped off his head with one knife.

Zhang Shi saw everything and was immediately overwhelmed by anger. Regardless of his weak body, he used the same Shadow Step to move behind the monster and was about to swing at it, but the monster saw through him and used the Shadow Step again to move away with the refresh function of the kill.

This time, he aimed his blade at Wu Qing, aiming it straight at her back. Fortunately, Ge Dalong's Ice Armor was on cooldown, narrowly blocking the attack. Wu Qing quickly used Punishment behind her, and the monster paused, giving Zhang Shi the opportunity to flash behind her and stab her in the back.
