The bandits were shocked because one of them was instantly killed upon appearing.

Before the bandits could recover from their shock, a blinding light instantly illuminated the entire valley.

Shortly after, the bandits saw a giant energy sword—which emitted white rays of light—descending from the sky and landed on them.

Soul-Breaking Sword!

…

A series of ultra-high damage indicators darted out of the bandits’ heads as the attack instantly killed most of the bandits.

Only a few insignificant bandit leaders—who had been standing at the back and did not rush forward—managed to stay alive because they were not within the energy sword’s attack range.

Now, the insignificant leaders had already been shocked motionless.

That was not all. Liu Ming also saw a few swaying figures on the mountains on both sides of the valley. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared.

Such situations could be considered a flaw of the highly-intelligent humanoid monsters.

After all, the highly-intelligent monsters’ intelligence was no different from that of normal people. After encountering a life-and-death crisis, they would naturally escape in fear.

Of course, there were also those who were fearless and brave enough to defend and die for their beliefs in reality. Likewise, fearless and highly-intelligent monsters also existed in God Domain. Otherwise, how could God Domain’s creators claim it to be an ultra-realistic virtual game?

…

Liu Ming casually decapitated the insignificant bandit leaders before turning around and hinted to the coachman that the crisis had been resolved.

The coachman only recovered from his shock after hearing Liu Ming’s reminder. While he stared at Liu Ming’s figure, he wanted to speak but hesitated to do so.

The coachman was only a Level 1 NPC, which was the lowest level. Hence, he had never seen such a scene before.

With the amount of knowledge that the coachman had, he could not say anything much about Liu Ming. Hence, he could only watch.

…

Liu Ming and company cleared the obstacles and made their way to the periphery of a large jungle.

Liu Ming subconsciously slowed the horses down when he saw the silent jungle.

More than an hour had passed since he annihilated the first batch of bandits. In that past hour or so, Liu Ming managed to eliminate four groups of humanoid monsters like bandits and robbers.

After being attacked by the previous monster groups, Liu Ming was certain that a batch of monsters would definitely be in the jungle.

Besides, during the journey, Liu Ming had already found out from the coachman that the jungle was the largest one they would pass through before reaching the main city.

In other words, according to normal logic, a Boss-level monster would definitely be waiting in the jungle for this escort mission.

Although Liu Ming definitely wasn’t afraid of a Boss-level Leader that was Level 10 at most because he was competent, the coachman, Gillen, and his family were all normal NPCs that did not have any combat power.

In such a situation, it was better for Liu Ming to play it safe.

Just like Liu Ming had guessed, he immediately heard the sound of wolves howling and wailing after they entered the route that led to the jungle.

Immediately afterward, a group of green-skinned monsters rushed out from the jungle on both sides, obstructing Liu Ming and company’s path.

The green-skinned monsters were all tall and burly. There were more than ten monsters that rode on giant wolves. The green-skinned monster that was leading the rest was clad in iron armor. In terms of appearance, it looked much stronger than the bandits.

The monsters’ information bars had also proven that fact.
