29 Accepting the Mission (1/2)

In the outskirts of Xinlong Paradise, there stood Liu Jun's group.
Amidst the grassy fields and trees, the beautiful Qian Xue was conversing with the cute red-bloused Xie Na. In the wildlife design of Xinlong Paradise, there were beautiful feats of nature everywhere.
While conversing, the two gorgeous girls were watching Liu Jun fight.
Fighting the monsters, Liu Jun relentlessly slaughtered the horde of skeletons. Gripping his blood-stained cutlass, he thought, ”I need to become strong; I never want to have my life controlled again.”
Plundering the resources of the orcs from the 'Team Battle Royale', Liu Jun's group was well-equipped with weapons. In a swift notice, their group had become the hunters instead of the hunted.
”…” Qian Xue watched her boyfriend ruthlessly slaughtering the monsters with a merciless glint in his hazel eyes. With each slash, her heart bled with pain and sadness.
”Jun… he's changing.” Qian Xue's heart hurt. In the past, Liu Jun was never like this. Even in the face of hardship, he would calmly fight on with a smile.
Liu Jun's emotions were numb. The peril he felt from Sun Yi's overwhelming strength was a wake-up call. In this cruel world, he had to do everything in his power to reach the peak.
Huang Dong watched his best friend with a sigh. While he was lost in thought, a sudden cry resounded near their area. Looking around, he tried to figure out the source of the noise. Abruptly, another frightening scream rang.
Finally, Liu Jun's group discerned the direction of the noise. With some hesitation, everyone stopped their actions, and they quietly moved toward the source. Exiting from a nearby building, the white-uniformed Li Xiujing also silently sneaked out with his former party upon hearing the scream.
”Remain silent.” Liu Jun signaled with his hazel eyes upon noticing the 'kind' old man's group. Seeing this, Li Xiujing's former 'bow' team nodded. Clearing his throat, he slowly made his way behind a carnival store, and he peeked around the corner.

In front of his eyes, there were five goblins surrounding a group of ten men who were carrying many packets of food. Liu Jun noted the grim-looking middle-aged man at the front.
While Liu Jun was pondering whether to interfere, he noticed the beautiful Qian Xue hurriedly running toward the group of ten.
”Ah Xue…” Liu Jun's hazel pupils dilated, and he turned restless. Tapping his foot, he also sprinted in the direction of his girlfriend.
From the group of ten, Qie Chuanli's teeth were tightly clenched, and he struggled to breathe. He was terrified for his life—incredibly terrified. The situation was such that he was attempting to find food supplies for the arcade to feed the elderly and children. Even though he was scared of the monsters, it had to be done; otherwise, everyone would starve.
Qie Chuanli gave off a painful grimace. When he thought his end was looming, he noticed a strong-looking group carrying weapons about fifteen meters away; furthermore, there was a beautiful girl with an hourglass figure running toward him.
”Help!” Qie Chuanli hurriedly cried out. In hopes of them helping, he also added, ”We need to bring this food and water back to the children and elderly back in the arcade!”
Luckily, Qie Chuanli was not disappointed. Qian Xue, the beautiful brunette, raced toward the five goblins carrying a golden cutlass. In due time, she reached the goblins, and she sent a flying slash toward the neck of the closest monster.
However, Qian Xue could not cut directly through the goblin's neck due to her haste, and her cutlass was stuck halfway. Perceiving her crisis, she softly winced, and she released her hand. Without a weapon, the four remaining goblins turned to murderously stare the beautiful brunette.
Under normal circumstances, Qian Xue should have been able to cut through the goblins with ease. The entire time, she had also been hunting the goblins and skeletons while getting stronger, but she did not have the proper stance moving in this time around. It was crucial to not rush one's actions.
”No…” With evident fear, Qian Xue started backing off. Her breathing became rapid; her eyes widened. While she was frightened, the beautiful brunette noticed a familiar figure that she could never ever forget run toward her in panic.
”Ah Xue!” Liu Jun ran toward his girlfriend with bloodshot eyes. How could he have been so stupid? Was his pride really that important? He almost let his girlfriend walk into her doom right next to him!
Liu Jun bit down on his cheek so hard that it bled. With unease, he speedily slashed at the four goblins. Currently, his {Player Status} was nearing the max in all the white-level stats. The goblins were torn to shreds like a hot knife slicing through butter.
After the death of the monsters, Liu Jun instantly went to embrace the soft beautiful brunette. With obvious dread, he checked over her entire body while fearfully asking, ”Are you okay, Ah Xue?! Please don't scare me…”
