With a starting talent that's practically top-tier, even an old man can go against the heavens!

When I opened my eyes, I was still in the town of Monte.

Lu Ziming and the super dad sat idly on the stone steps next to each other.

Turning his head, Lu Ziming's eyes lit up.

"Grandpa's online!"

The two quickly stood up and smiled.

Chen Beixuan responded with a smile, and after thinking for a moment, said...

"We only need to take down the last Dark Swordsman boss. Let's finish him off quickly."

"Sir, do you know where the Dark Swordsman is?"

Lu Ziming looked astonished.

Chen Beixuan nodded.

"We've made some discoveries, but we still need to confirm them."

"Let's go to the mayor's house."

The three of them returned to the three-story building.

But when they arrived, they were told that the mayor had already run into trouble.

"The town mayor was attacked on his way to the main city and has been killed in battle. Tell me if you need anything..."

The middle-aged subordinate looked pained and said sadly.

Chen Beixuan was not surprised at all, but instead pretended to look regretful and muttered to himself.

"This is so sudden. It looks like the information we have about the Dark Swordsman can only be delivered to the main city..."

After muttering to himself, he looked up and thanked the middle-aged man for his goodbye.

He then turned and left with the two of them, heading towards the outskirts of the city.

This series of actions left both Lu Ziming and his companion stunned.

"Sir, what information did you just say? We didn't know anything about it."

Walking down the street, Lu Ziming couldn't help but ask.

Although the super dad didn't say anything, a hint of doubt was evident in his eyes.

They were clearly puzzled by Chen Beixuan's words.

Chen Beixuan smiled but didn't say it directly, instead keeping it a secret for now.

"The Dark Swordsman will appear soon, and he will come looking for us on his own initiative."

"We could run into him at any time if we just head towards the main city!"

"Oh dear, sir, please stop beating around the bush. You've completely confused me. What's going on?"

Lu Ziming didn't want to wait a moment longer; he wanted to know the answer right now.

Chen Beixuan sighed helplessly. "Can't I even pretend to be mysterious and unfathomable?" He was exasperated.

"Do you remember what the mayor's subordinate said when we entered the shadows?"

"What did he say... wish us good luck?" Lu Ziming scratched his head, trying to recall.

Just then, the voice of the super dad rang out.

"He said what he saw was completely different from what was inside, but the key question is, how could he know what it looked like inside?"

"Hey, you got it right!"

Chen Beixuan snapped his fingers and gave the super dad an admiring look.

"I suspect that person is the Dark Swordsman, so I deliberately told him that I knew information about the Dark Swordsman and even revealed our destination, all to lure him out and make him come looking for us!"

"So, the mayor was also killed by him..." Lu Ziming suddenly thought of the mayor's death.

"That's right, it's most likely him who did it."

Chen Beixuan stroked the stubble on his chin, analyzing the situation carefully.

"He probably didn't want his identity to be exposed, so he killed the mayor halfway and stole the messenger ghost."

"So I'm sure he'll come and kill us to prevent the news from reaching the main city!"

Lu Ziming let out a long "Oh," as if suddenly realizing something.

"I see! How wonderful!"

The three walked and talked, and before they knew it, they had walked quite a distance.

The town of Monte has long since disappeared from sight; there's no village or shop in sight.

As the surroundings grew quieter, the atmosphere gradually became tense.

Seeing this, Chen Beixuan raised his hand and released protective flames to shield the three of them.

After walking for a while longer.

While passing through a jungle, a strange thing happened!

click-

A massive, jet-black sword aura shattered the trees and hurtled straight towards the three of them!

"coming!"

Chen Beixuan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately stood in front of the two of them.

Although the three of them have defenses of over a thousand, it's better to be safe than sorry.

If Lu Ziming kills him instantly, even if the Dark Swordsman is killed, the mission will not be completed.

boom--

With a loud bang, the sword energy slammed into him!

Critical hit -1240!

"Fuck!"

Chen Beixuan was startled.

This attack dealt over 2400 damage!

After activating the magic circle, its dual resistances increase by a full 1200 points, offsetting half of the damage.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to stand in front of the two.

At that moment, a figure came into the three people's view from the jungle.

Holding a black cross sword, bare-chested, with black veins scattered across his grayish-white skin.

His face was shrouded in black mist, making it difficult to see his features.

Seeing that the three were unharmed, he seemed quite surprised and let out a soft exclamation.

"No wonder he was able to kill Modo, he's got some skills."

The super dad reacted quickly, unleashing a Holy Flame Technique that struck Chen Beixuan on the head!

+1000!

+20, +20, +20, ...

Chen Beixuan stepped forward and threw out the reconnaissance item.

------

Having grasped the BOSS's attributes, Chen Beixuan felt reassured.

He raised an eyebrow when he saw the dark mist on Trick's face.

"You think we won't know who you are just by hiding your face?"

Upon hearing his words, Trick immediately dispelled the black mist from his face.

It was indeed that middle-aged man under the mayor!

With a hint of pity on his sickly pale face, he swung his sword and approached.

"Please understand me, I can't let the message reach the main city, I'm sorry."

As he spoke, he slashed out with his sword, unleashing a burst of black sword energy!

"Black Light Slash!"

Seeing this, Chen Beixuan shook his head and raised his staff.

"Then I'm sorry."

"The Spear of Chaos - Darkness!"

A giant black spear appeared from the sky and shot out!

At the same time the sword energy struck him, the Dark Spear also struck Trike!

boom--

puff--

Critical hit -1248!

Treatment Prohibited - 19548!

Damage effects appeared above their heads, instantly revealing their relative strengths!

Upon seeing the comparison of the damage to both sides, Trick's pupils suddenly contracted, and he gasped in shock.

"This is impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Beixuan's lips curled up slightly.

"One move, and I'll take you down!"

"Thunder and lightning!"

boom--

True damage -20069, 10035.

Lucky Combo +1!

boom--

True damage -20069, 10035.

Two bolts of lightning, each as thick as a bowl, struck Trick, instantly reducing his health bar to almost nothing!

Trike coughed up a mouthful of black blood and knelt down with a thud.

His eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

He couldn't even withstand two skills?

Why is this old guy's attack so strong!

Seeing that Trick had less than 1000 health points left, Chen Beixuan clicked his tongue.

"Tsk, a miscalculation, I didn't kill him instantly..."

Lu Ziming and the other man were dumbfounded when they heard his words.

Grandpa, can you even speak human language?

The level 20 bronze boss, I could previously fight it for ten or twenty seconds.

Is this time they're just not going to pretend at all?

Knocked down in three seconds?

I advise you not to go too far!

The two rolled their eyes and muttered under their breath.
