Traveling through the game world

The Rotten Land, a vast expanse of land rotten and corrupted by a black nightmare...

"Ledding, Hughman, I'll f*** your whole family!" Upon arriving at the Rotten Land, Lian Yang was overwhelmed by the stench, his head spinning. On Earth, Lian Yang knew the smelliest place was an ice cream factory, filled with all sorts of chemicals, some toxic, some not. Anyway, he once went to an ice cream factory on business, and the air in the toilets there was fresher than in the factory workshops. (This is true; I experienced it myself.)

It's hard to imagine that this stinking land was once the most fertile soil in Huttonmar. Now, the rotting land is filled with suffocating stench from the decaying mud, and the mutated maggots, Pikara, are desperately devouring everything in their path. The land they swarm over seems to be a few centimeters lower.

It was also early morning, but only during the day when the sun was shining could one set foot in the ruins of Huttonmar. At night, the ruins of Huttonmar were teeming with demons, making them several levels more dangerous.

After a period of adventure, Lian Yang was no longer a novice; in fact, he was now a newbie. He carefully avoided the mutated Pikarat worms. These disgusting behemoths would go berserk when attacked, but if you deliberately left their range of perception, they would not easily attack humans.

Lian Yang moved forward silently and quickly, his goal being to reach the location of the black giant scorpion, Moss, as soon as possible. Only Lian Yang knew that the black giant scorpion, Moss, had already arrived in this decaying land, which reeked of a black nightmare.

Continuing onward, Lian Yang saw a group of mushroom-man commanders and a pair of Namlun fighters teaming up to fight a Pikarara worm. As a product of the Black Nightmare, the Pikarara worm, lacking intelligence, could only become food for the Namlun and mushroom-man, who were much weaker than it.

They tried to remain as silent as possible along the way, quickly killing any monsters that occasionally appeared as if they were cutting melons into vegetables. Finally, in the distance, Lian Yang spotted a creature far larger than the other giant scorpions—the black giant scorpion Moss—enjoying its meal.

The Black Giant Scorpion Moss, a mere level 20-something mini-boss in the game, is utterly useless except for its imposing and ferocious appearance. However, applying game stats to the real world is absurd. In terms of strength, it's slightly stronger than the Fallen Ant Queen Melena, but not by much, roughly at level 60, and incredibly venomous. Its real problem lies in its intelligence; every morning after enjoying the food offered by its people, it immediately burrows underground, and its infiltration is flawless.

Knowing his habits, Lian Yang arrived here early in the morning and indeed found the black giant scorpion, Moss.

Grinning, Lian Yang muttered to himself, "Heh heh, dare to send someone to ambush me? I'll show you what scheming really means!"

Silently retreating from the black giant scorpion Moss's perception range, Lian Yang saw a group of Namlun warriors in the distance. "Bloodthirsty Demon-Sealing Slash!" Lian Yang roared with all his might.

Meanwhile, the group of Namlun warriors who were searching for the Pikarat worm were startled by Lian Yang's earth-shattering roar and instantly charged angrily at him.

At this moment, Erlian Yang's Bloodthirsty Demon-Sealing Slash failed to attract any monsters, but he did manage to pile up bricks and rotten wood in his hands. When he saw the Namlun Fighter rushing up from a distance, he swung his hand and threw all the things in his hands away.

"Boom!" The Namlun fighter, who was completely caught off guard, was instantly hit on the head by Lian Yang's move, which was comparable to that of a thug.

"Damn humans, I'll kill you!" The random objects Lian Yang casually tossed aside certainly wouldn't kill these Namlun warriors; they were all level 20+ after all. But they were definitely going to be covered in dust and dirt. Intelligent beings share a common trait: regardless of race, they all have a love of beauty, or to put it more bluntly, they care about their image.

Perhaps different races have different aesthetic standards, but being defeated and humiliated is an insult no matter where you are. So the Namlun fighter was enraged and roared as he charged even more frantically at Lian Yang.

"Die!" Lian Yang unleashed a devastating mountain-shattering strike, slamming it into the center of the Namuren warriors. The surging blood energy instantly shattered the entire group of Namuren warriors into pieces. The houses surrounding the Namuren warriors also crumbled at the same time.

"Boom..."

Lian Yang's loud shout and the sound of houses collapsing startled all the monsters in the area, who roared madly and rushed towards Lian Yang's location.

"Hehe!" The only thing that really bothered Lian Yang in the Rotten Land was the black giant scorpion Moss. As for the other monsters, apart from providing some equipment and experience, Lian Yang wasn't afraid of how many came.

Lian Yang leisurely attacked the attacking monsters, raising his hand and swinging his sword, killing and injuring countless monsters. Lian Yang fought as he went, and wherever he went, he caused as much noise as possible, such as collapsing walls and houses.

At this time, the Black Hat Thieves

"Lord Hassan! That damned Lian Yang has appeared!" Upon hearing the scout thief's report, Lieding Hughman immediately guessed it was Lian Yang. Lian Yang hadn't made any attempt to conceal himself when he entered the ruins of Huttonmar that morning. And now, the usually deserted Rotten Land was so bustling; it was obvious Lian Yang had arrived.

“Leave it to us, Master Hughman!” Hassan said confidently.

Hassan is a warrior of the Hughman family, a level 49 swordsman. He only needs to be one level away from embarking on his path to awakening.

This time, his squad was sent to take down Lian Yang. Hassan truly felt that sending this elite squad to deal with Lian Yang, who was only level 30, was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Hassan's squad is the absolute elite squad of the Hughman family. The captain Hassan is a level 49 Sword Master, Piaoyan is a level 48 Striker, Disman is a level 48 Ghostblade, and Wells is a level 47 Duelist.

Equipped with top-tier gear, each of them could easily defeat Lian Yang on their own, as the nearly 20-level difference was simply insurmountable (aside from Lian Yang's friends, no one could believe they were decked out in god-tier gear).

Lian Yang was still fighting the monsters with ease and comfort, because he was certain that Liedin-Shuman's men would arrive soon.

Sure enough, just as Lian Yang killed a monster, a sharp sword aura fiercely attacked.

With a sudden turn, Lian Yang dodged the incoming sharp sword energy and chuckled, "This Liedinghuman really went all out, sending four beings above level 45 to kill me."

Although Lian Yang didn't recognize Hassan and the others, he did recognize the appearance of their level 45 high-level weapons. After all, the weapon appearances in the Dungeon & Fighter world weren't significantly different from those in the game.

"You've got a good eye, kid. Too bad you're about to die! Remember not to offend the wrong people in your next life!" Hassan said indifferently, not even glancing at Lian Yang.

Lian Yang chuckled and replied, "Well, I'll say this to you again: don't be someone's dog in your next life. Dog food isn't cheap. It's a waste to feed you that much!" When it comes to sharp tongues, Lian Yang, being from Earth, knew better than to be surprised when Hassan's face turned bright red with anger after just a couple of sentences.

Not only did Hassan's expression change drastically, but his three teammates also looked displeased. It's a classic case of insults and humiliation. The Sherman family paid them high salaries, and they served the Sherman family; in a way, it was no different from a master feeding a dog and then letting the dog bite people.

Hassan said in a deep voice, "You sharp-tongued brat, I was originally going to give you a whole corpse, but it seems you want to be fertilizer today! Kill!"

As soon as they made their move, the Fierce Dragon Sky-Splitting Slash rushed forward swiftly. As if it were a signal, Desman's Ghost Step, Piao Yan's Instant Step, and Wells's Chain Spear all came rushing in at once.

"Follow me and ****! Five-Stage Slash!" After casually drinking a speed potion, Lian Yang's Five-Stage Slash instantly widened the distance between him and Hassan and the others.

Of course, the distance wasn't great. Hassan was the fastest, immediately following up his Dragon Slash with a Five-Stage Slash, closely catching up to Lian Yang, but it was to no avail. Lian Yang, already slightly faster than them, was practically flying after drinking the speed-boosting potion.

In the stench-filled, rotting land, Lian Yang could be seen running frantically, with Hassan and his men in hot pursuit. Had it not been for Lian Yang's initial sharp tongue, Hassan and his companions might have already decided to try and kill him again. But because they felt insulted by Lian Yang's words, the four chased after him relentlessly, determined to kill him with their swords.

Leading Hassan and the other three, they sped all the way to the territory of the black giant scorpion Moss. They stopped abruptly, and Lian Yang chuckled, "I'll take you guys down with me even if I die!"

"Dream on!" Hassan instantly appeared in front of Lian Yang with a five-stage slash, and delivered a fatal blow with a raised hand.

“Zheng…Weng…”

Suddenly, a huge iron shield appeared in Lian Yang's hand. When Hassan struck the shield with his sword, it made a piercing noise.

Lian Yang roared wildly, "Die!"

"What?!".

The giant black scorpion, Moss, suddenly appeared behind Lian Yang. A vicious claw ruthlessly severed Lian Yang, tossing him aside like trash. Then, it lunged fiercely at Hassan and the others. Although they usually avoided humans, Hassan and his group, who had provoked Moss with noise, became certain death in Moss's eyes.

In the distance, the torn Lian Yang stood up unharmed, quietly lurking to the side, silently watching the epic battle between the black giant scorpion Moss and Hassan and the others.
