Ace Of Terrans



Shi Lang took the scroll out and found Ji Qui waiting for him. She asked, "Did you accept a task?" 

The terran nodded, and the girl said, "You can walk around the city and find things you need to accomplish it. After all, the task should not be of lower level." 

Shi Lang asked, "How do you know that the task level is not low?" 

Ji Qui said, "The tasks are divided into three levels: human-level tasks, earth-level tasks, and heaven-level tasks." 

She pointed at the board hanging on the wall and said, "The tasks written with chalk are all human-level ones. You can find a bunch of them anytime here. The flyers posted on the side of the board are for the earth-level tasks. If someone accepts the heaven-level tasks, they come straight from the emissary inside the room." 

The terran understood her meaning and said, "I will take my leave. Can you tell sister Yun for me?" 

Ji Qui was surprised and asked, "You do not intend to tell her goodbye?" 

Shi Lang shook his head and replied, "Time is short, and I do not wish for someone else to finish this task before I do. This matter is of the utmost importance to me, and the longer I stay here, the more anxious I will become." 

Ji Qui did not know what to say, but Shi Lang had already turned away and left the place in large strides. She watched him, and after a sigh, she turned around to inform the rest of the people that he had left. 

Shi Lang left the cloud pavilion, went to an herb merchant, selected a few dried herbs, and circled the market to collect more. His enemy was a gang; he needed to attack them and simultaneously avoid as much attention as possible. He decided to use his brain to back up his brawn. 

He would not be able to deal with the immortal king realm beasts and immortal lord realm criminals. Bandits specialized in destruction; they would leave behind a trail of debris in their wake, and Shi Lang was a soldier. He did not fight like that. The terran prepared many things before he left the city with Xiao Lei. 

The scroll mentioned the most prominent location of the bandits. Shi Lang reached the periphery of the location and found himself staring at a dark forest. The trees in this place had black leaves and black trunks. It was as if the night itself had materialized on land. The terran leaned forward and asked gently, "How do people survive here? What do you think, Xiao Lei?" 

His voice was very low, and the horse only shook his head to reply. Shi Lang could not fly into the sky to check the situation. The spiritual fluctuations will alert the enemy. After all, the enemy was also a group of Immortal Lords. Shi Lang got off the back of Xiao Lei and said, "You better hide, Xiao Lei. If someone hunted you, it would be bad." 

The horse stomped on the ground before it moved away. It was a smart beast. How could it not understand that Shi Lang was trying to make fun of it? Xiao Lei moved closer to the black trees and stood in the cover, blending properly with the darkness. He controlled his lightning completely, and now, he was invisible.

Shi Lang easily walked inside the black forest and used his special ability to sense everything around him. He could not see anything in this place, and the fact that he had come to this place at night was making things even more difficult. Thank goodness he had this ability and was trained as a soldier early. 

He was moving through the place without a sound and very slowly. He was observing everything that might stand out. After some minutes, when he got used to the place, Shi Lang used his communicator and the last few probes left at his disposal to look for the location of the enemy. 

It took him three hours to find a patrol they had set up—the people were hiding inside the black thickets with great proficiency. Shi Lang raised his brows and began to set up traps. He set up some small killing arrays in two layers. Then he bought out the bundles of traps he had bought in the market and carefully set them up. 

He booby-trapped the place with knives and laced each one with strong poison. Then Shi Lang selected a few spots and took out his herbs. The terran put the herbs into a pile and left one of his clones to watch things around. When he was done encompassing the area of seven kilometers with his elaborate setup, he nodded, and simultaneously, all his clones reacted and they snapped their fingers and set the pile of herbs on fire. The clones controlled the wind around the place to move the smoke toward the circle's center. 

There were seven such piles, three of which could help promote better and quicker sleep. Four piles of herbs agitated the beasts. No matter what the beast was like, they did not like the scene of these herbs and would rush over to destroy them. 

These herbs were like hallucinogens, and the beasts went berserk at a mere sniff. Shi Lang waited, and as soon as he heard roars echoing from the circle's center. He waved his hand, and the clones vanished, leaving behind a slowly smoking pile of dried herbs. 

The terran waited. As the commotion started, he spotted five immortal king realm beasts rushing through the thickets. They did not care if they had been toppling the trees or the tree barks were grazing deep in their skins. However, they all wished to scatter the dry herbs before reaching the pile of herbs. These beasts stepped into small killing arrays. 

The killing array worked simply. They would trigger, and the array formation would create a spiritual energy spike that would kill the person inside like an invisible weapon. These arrays were not invincible or omnipotent, and they relied on random spikes that would attack the person trapped inside. 

However, the spirit beasts were bigger, and even though they were injured, they managed to break free from the array. Shi Lang expected this and did not panic. He waited quietly as all of the bandits rushed after the beasts. 

Five of them stepped into the array marks and died before anyone could figure out what happened. These experts were not dumb, and one exclaimed, "Be careful, enemy attack." 

That said, the people drew out their weapons and began to look around. They avoided the array marks as they walked, but suddenly, they tripped on something, and the wind shivered around them. 

A normal trap would not affect them, but Shi Lang used spirit-enchanted flying knives. All of them are capable of flying at the speed of sound. A few experts were directly stabbed inside their vitals. A few tried to avoid the attacks but were still stabbed. Although the wound was not in a vital spot, the poison acted quickly and left these people motionless. 

Shi Lang took a spear from his space ring and rushed ahead. He did not use any fancy skills and attacked sneakily. The people were having a hard time dealing with the traps he had set up, and in such a situation, Shi Lang stabbed their necks from behind and simply left them without any chance to struggle. 

Other than panicked calls, only dull thuds occasionally sounded in the night's dark. Shi Lang had dealt with seven bandits alone, and the trap trigger killed five and one with a killing array. 

Shi Lang had taken down thirteen people and now had to deal with the other twenty-seven. He sighed and said, "If not for the fact that I can use Shura skills, I would not have attempted this task. Amy, you better be safe and good to me later on." 

He went to the main hide, where the rest of the bandits were gathered. He moved very quickly but silently. None of the people spotted his approach. These bandits were very disciplined. They were sitting appropriately and were cultivating with three people keeping watch. 

What Shi Lang had dealt with was just a patrol. He could not help but think what these people would have been like if they were this dedicated to some other cause. He did not disturb the people but looked around and found a man sitting in a lotus position with a big egg. 

Shi Lang recalled the information and concluded that this guy was the leader of this group. He had to deal swiftly with him because the information was wrong. He could sense that the strength of this guy was anything but the initial Immortal Lord level. Shi Lang was hiding behind a black tree and was cursing the Cloud Pavilion, but on a careful note, he thought this guy might have achieved a breakthrough. 

Decided upon his next tests, Shi Lang crawled closer to the bandit sitting farthest to the leader.
