Lu Xiu widened his eyes in shock. This feeling was just like in novels, where a statue was suppressing something like a seal.

If it is really as I guessed, then I have committed a great sin.

"Let's try it out."

Lu Xiu, who was originally planning to kill these hillbillies, immediately changed his plan, replaced the iron axe with a shovel, and ostentatiously hooked his finger at the group of hillbillies who were obviously angry.

"Come here!"

The hillbillies, who were already angry, roared in anger after being provoked by Lu Xiu and rushed towards him.

Lu Xiu slowly lowered his head and dug the soil beneath his feet. Before the hill people rushed to him, a three-meter-deep and one-meter-wide pit appeared on the ground.

The group of Hilichurls jumped in without thinking, and the only thing on their minds was how to kill this human.

However, after they jumped down the pit, they found that a passage had been dug out inside at some point, and at the end of the passage was another pit that went vertically downwards.

The most muscular hillbilly thug in the lead scratched the mask on his face in confusion. His underdeveloped brain couldn't figure out why the enemy dug such a hole.

Before it could give orders to its younger brothers, it suddenly heard a younger brother's cry behind it.

The Hillichul thug suddenly turned around and found that several of his younger brothers who were following him had disappeared. At the same time, he heard the screams of his younger brothers on his right.

When he turned around, the younger brother on the right also disappeared. This strange scene made the hillill thugs want to retreat, but when they looked up at the three-meter-high pit, they realized it would take some time to get up.

Just as the Hillichul thug was about to use the axe in his hand to hook the uppermost ground to pull himself up, he suddenly felt his feet go empty and his body fell down uncontrollably.

The Hillichul thug screamed, then hit the bottom, but the pain he imagined did not come. Instead, he heard a few muffled groans from under him.

Looking down again, he found that it was the little brothers who had just disappeared from his side. They also fell down and served as cushions for him.

The Hillichul thug quickly stood up, but before it could figure out the situation, the soil above its head was suddenly dug up and a human face appeared.

"Even though they're intelligent creatures, they're still just as easily fooled as the zombies in MC."

After Lu Xiu used blocks to cushion himself on the ground, he surrounded the pit that trapped the group of hillbillies with raw stones to prevent them from escaping.

After doing all this, Lu Xiu changed the shovel in his hand back to a pickaxe, and looked down at the angry-looking hillbillies trapped in the pit.

"Try and see if it's because of the statue."

After Lu Xiu carefully confirmed that there was no black energy on these hill people, he turned around and chiseled off the statue again. After picking up the statue casually, Lu Xiu turned around and bent down to observe the condition of these hill people.

After waiting for about ten seconds, a wisp of black air lingered around the bodies of these hill people. The moment the black air appeared, Lu Xiu turned around and put the statue back to its original place. When he looked back again, the black air on the hill people had indeed disappeared.

“It really is because of the statue.”

This result made Lu Xiu feel both relieved and disappointed. He was relieved that he discovered it early and did not cause any major disaster to the land.

Disappointingly, the instant recovery BUFF that I used when moving failed.

"If I can't carry it with me, then if I can quickly get to the statue and then return to the battlefield, that would be enough. Or is there something that can replace it? I'll ask Keqing first, and then build a statue bigger than this one and put the replacement inside. I wonder if that will work."

After muttering for a while, Lu Xiu returned to the top of the pit and tried to talk to the hillbillies trapped in the cave.

"I say, can you guys have a good chat now? If not, don't blame me for scooping up a bucket of lava to wash your hair."

Lu Xiu has never had much patience for creatures that show hostility towards him. The only patience he has left comes from his curiosity about these intelligent creatures that are completely different from humans.

It's just a pity that even though this group of Hilichurls were trapped and at a disadvantage, they still roared at Lu Xiu unwillingly. Two of them even raised their simple wooden crossbows and shot arrows at Lu Xiu, but they were easily blocked by Lu Xiu with his wooden shield.

The arrow bounced back and fell straight back, piercing the heads of the two unlucky guys, causing them to scream in pain instantly.

Fortunately, the arrow bounced back, otherwise, with the injuries only to their heads, they would have died long ago.

"Is it that they are unwilling to communicate, or that they are unable to communicate?"

Lu Xiu was a little confused. He had heard these hillbillies talking before, but after that there were only some meaningless roars.

"Sir, if you want to get along with the Hillichurls, I advise you to give up this idea. However, if you are willing to pay a little price, I do have a way to teach you how to have a good conversation with them."

A teasing male voice sounded beside Lu Xiu. Lu Xiu frowned and looked up, and saw a group of people with scarves on their faces and shifty eyes standing with their hands on their hips, throwing daggers in one hand, and staring at him fiercely.

"Tsk tsk, you're such a wealthy adventurer, wearing such shiny white armor. We're a bit short on money lately, so why don't you give us some help?"

P.S. I am a pig. Sorry, I forgot about the explosion after the death of the demon. I have modified the previous task requirements from killing to defeating. Sorry, I am a pig.

Chapter 32: You came out to rob, why do you break when you touch something?

"Are you trying to rob me?" Lu Xiu seemed very surprised and a little excited.

Lu Xiu’s reaction left the treasure-hunting group a little confused. They couldn’t help but wonder if this guy had a problem with his brain. Wasn’t their expression obvious enough?

"Since you're so smart, why don't you be more sensible and cooperate with us brothers? We won't hurt you. Just leave your valuables behind and get out of here!"

The leader of the treasure-stealing group waved his hand generously.

Lu Xiu, however, cheerfully leaned on the iron axe in his hand and glanced at the treasure-stealing group leader: "I used to rob others, but I didn't expect to be robbed today. To be honest, I have a lot of good things on me, but it depends on whether you have the ability to take them away."

"Hey? You're not going to accept my toast, are you?"

The treasure-stealing group leader's limited patience was completely exhausted. A cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He slapped his left hand with the long sword in his right hand and approached Lu Xiu with his little brothers with an evil smile.

"Boy, you were lucky enough to meet me when I was in a good mood, but you chose the only way that would lead to your death among several ways to leave safely, and you angered me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the treasure-hunting group suddenly rushed towards Lu Xiu, roared, raised the long sword in his right hand high above his head, and slashed heavily at Lu Xiu who was standing there motionless.

In order not to damage the armor that looked very good on Lu Xiu, the leader of the treasure-stealing group deliberately deflected the sword and chopped it towards the connecting gap of the armor on Lu Xiu's shoulder. This would ensure that the armor would not be damaged while killing Lu Xiu.

Hey~

The sword fell, clearly chopped off the middle part of Lu Xiu's shoulder and neck, which was not covered by any armor, but the long sword responded with a sound of metal clashing, which made the leader of the treasure-stealing group open his mouth in surprise.

"Impossible! How come you're not hurt? Did I chop it off center?"

Lu Xiu also frowned and glanced at his health bar. He noticed keenly that his health bar had lost half a heart and then recovered instantly.

"That's it? Even a cactus prick hurts more than you."

Lu Xiu originally thought that they would have some skills in robbing people, but it turned out that the pain was worse than when his grandmother pricked him with a pot of cactus!

The leader of the treasure-stealing group came back to his senses from the shock, gritted his teeth and raised the long sword in his hand to prepare to strike Lu Xiu again, but Lu Xiu became impatient and raised the axe in his hand and chopped at him.

Seeing that the other side had launched the attack first, the leader of the treasure-stealing group immediately switched from offense to defense, blocking the axe's chopping path with his long sword.

The leader of the treasure-stealing group couldn't help but laugh contemptuously in his heart when he saw Lu Xiu's straightforward attack.

"I thought he was some experienced adventurer dressed so warmly, but he swings his axe like a three-year-old. It seems he blocked my sword just now because he's wearing some kind of anti-slashing lining in his armor."

"Defend yourself first. After you block this axe, I will sever the meridians in your wrist. Then you will be my slave!"

When the treasure-hunting group came back to their senses from their beautiful imagination, they found that their vision was rapidly retreating backwards, and there was a burning sensation in their chest. After a brief daze, he fell heavily to the ground and slid two or three meters.

"Huh? What's going on?"

The leader of the treasure-stealing group had blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. He raised his head with difficulty to look at his chest, wanting to see what had happened. He found that there was a wound more than 30 centimeters long on his chest. The wound was still bleeding, and only half of the long sword in his right hand was left.

"What happened?"

With this last question, the leader of the treasure-hunting group fell to the ground and closed his eyes.

The sudden occurrence of this scene surprised not only the other members of the treasure-hunting team, but also Lu Xiu himself.

"Is my strength so great?"

He just casually swung the axe just now, but who knew that the leader of the treasure-stealing group would shatter into pieces with just one touch and fly away.

"No, don't you guys know how to exercise before you go out to rob? You break at the slightest touch. Your physique is far worse than that of an old woman in Liyue Harbor."

Lu Xiu was speechless. You know, Grandma Ping had even taken a leap from him, but this group of treasure-hunting people who looked stronger than Grandma Ping were shattered at the slightest touch.

How long has it been since they last exercised?

"Damn it! You actually attacked our boss!"

The treasure-hunting group came back to their senses from the shock. None of them believed that their boss would be shattered at the touch of a finger. It must be this seemingly experienced adventurer who was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger and then launching a sneak attack!

Lu Xiu rolled his eyes at them in annoyance: "Come on, I'm just standing there without moving, okay? What do you mean by sneak attack? If you don't believe me, I'll just stand here and you can all come at me together."

The treasure-hunting group looked at each other, nodded at each other, and then a group of people rushed over waving various weapons in their hands.

The one rushing in the front was the strongest among them, weighing at least 200 pounds. Although he was holding only a shovel in his hand, his huge body still gave people a deterrent effect when he ran.

Lu Xiu did not underestimate them because of the treasure-stealing leader in front of him who was easily shattered by the slightest touch. Instead, he raised the shield in his hand and prepared to take the attack first and then counterattack.

The burly man rushed to Lu Xiu, roared, and slammed the shovel in his hand towards his head. But for some reason, although he was clearly aiming at the head, it was blocked by the shield in Lu Xiu's hand.

Before the burly man could react to this strange situation, Lu Xiu chopped him with an axe. The result was just like the previous treasure-stealing group leader. The burly man, who seemed to weigh at least 200 pounds, was easily chopped away like a ball, fell heavily to the ground and fainted.

"Ok?"

This time, Lu Xiu noticed something was wrong. He could barely explain why he easily chopped the thin leader of the treasure-stealing group away.

But this fat man weighed at least 200 pounds, and he was easily chopped down by me. This can't be explained by the fact that they don't exercise regularly.

"System, can you explain the abnormality in me?"

When in doubt, he asks the system. Lu Xiu thought about this strange situation and thought that it could only be because of the system.

[Due to the real-world texture pack, the host's single-arm strength value is based on the heaviest item in the backpack (Note: the weight of items can be calculated based on stacking)]

"The heaviest item?"

Lu Xiu glanced at the pebbles in his backpack. One pebble was one cubic meter in size. In reality, the weight of stones varies depending on their material, but one cubic meter is at least 1.5 tons. So were 64 pebbles.

At least 96 tons of single-arm strength?!

P.S. Sorry, I fell asleep yesterday and only wrote one chapter yesterday. I will make up for it today. If I only updated four chapters today, I will also update four chapters tomorrow. If I updated five chapters today, I will normally update three chapters tomorrow.

Chapter 33: The Unrestricted Talisman

Lu Xiu tried to swing his right arm with all his strength, and then he heard a sharp sound of air tearing, and a strong wind blew up beside him. The strong wind brought with it an irresistible force that directly blew the remaining members of the treasure-hunting group away.

The members of the treasure-stealing team fell heavily to the ground and screamed in agony. Lu Xiu was watching in amazement. He didn't feel anything wrong with the increase in strength, and his control over the strength was almost perfect. He could use as much strength as usual, which ensured that he wouldn't fail and cause any losses.

Lu Xiu glanced at the group of treasure-hunting team members lying on the ground and still screaming, raised his eyebrows, and walked towards them.

"You, don't come over here!"

"You devil, you monster!"

"Sir, I was wrong. I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old son who is still crying for food at home. Please be magnanimous and let us go!"

Lu Xiu walked in front of them, scaring the treasure-hunting group so much that they dragged their broken bodies and moved backwards while enduring the severe pain.

"Don't go."

Lu Xiu squatted down and pinched one person's ankle to prevent him from moving away. As a result, the treasure-hunting member whose ankle was pinched groaned in pain, his face turned pale, and finally his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

"I didn't even use much strength, you guys are too fragile, aren't you?"

Lu Xiu shook his head and walked towards another person. When the other member of the treasure-hunting group who was being targeted saw that he was being targeted, he shuddered and immediately stopped moving backwards.

"If the master has any request, just tell me, don't touch me!"

"Look at what you're saying." Lu Xiu rolled his eyes in annoyance: "I don't like to touch men either. You want to live, right?"

The treasure-hunting group nodded their heads so fast that if they nodded any faster they would lose their heads.

"Okay, then you should know what to pay, right?"

Lu Xiu smiled at them and rubbed his fingers.

As they often went out to rob houses, they naturally understood the meaning of Lu Xiu's gesture. They endured the severe pain, reached into their pockets, took out their wallets, and placed them respectfully on the ground in front of them.

Lu Xiu nodded in satisfaction, walked forward and opened one of the purses, and found that it was filled with golden currencies that he had never seen before.

Lu Xiu picked up one of the coins and examined it carefully. "Mora? It looks a bit like the currency of the ancient West, but what's its use?"

The currency of this world is of little use to Lu Xiu.

Lu Xiu took out a workbench from his backpack and put it down, trying to arrange the Moras into various positions. Finally, he filled all nine spaces on the workbench, and a thing called [Mora Ingot] appeared.

Just looking at its appearance, it is very similar to gold. Lu Xiu tried to use it as gold. After some experiments, he found that this Mora ingot can achieve most of the functions of gold.

The durability, armor value, and attack power of weapons and armor made from it are better than those made from gold.

It is a good precious metal.

"Based on this ratio, does 900 Mora equal one Mora ingot?"
