[You have entered a hostile territory! Leave or you will be attacked by the inhabitants!]

[You have entered a hostile territory! Leave or you will be attacked by the inhabitants!]

Tang Shaoyang merely furrowed his brows at the warning. He intended to fight the habitant to harvest Exp to level up. He came prepared and would not make the same mistake as before.

However, the warning startled Zhang Mengyao. The warning that resounded in her head was speaking in a harsh tone. As someone who rarely heard the robotic voice, the warning startled her.

She subconsciously took two steps back, but then, Lu An held her from behind.

”Don't worry, with Boss around, no one can touch you! But you have to stay near the Boss!” Lu An said with great confidence.

Zhang Mengyao's face flushed red as she was ashamed that even a teenager like Lu An was concerned about her. She was after all a soldier, how could she lose to a teenager.

Zhang Mengyao took a deep breath, trying to calm her nervousness. She scanned the surroundings, but her vision was blocked by the thick fog. The farthest she could see was 5-7 meters ahead.

The terrain was the one making her nervous. Her vision was limited and usually, the creature who lived in such terrain was dangerous. She was sure that the creature that lived in this fog did not have a problem with their vision.

Even if the creature also had a limited vision because of the fog, they must have a way to see through the fog.

Zhang Mengyao's deduction was spot on. The fogged monkey who lived here did not have any problem with their vision.

”They are coming! Stay near me, Mengyao!” Tang Shaoyang's voice was small, but Zhang Mengyao still could hear it.

She followed the instruction and came closer to Tang Shaoyang. Soon, she felt a vibration on the ground, an indication the enemy was getting closer.

Zhang Mengyao tightened her grips on the shield and sword. She stayed behind Tang Shaoyang, but her eyes darted around, trying to find what creature lived behind the fog.

”Get ready! They are here!”

Bump! Bump! Bump!

The sound of steps was getting louder and louder. Zhang Mengyao's eyes darted to and fro, trying to find where the enemies came from.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Dozens of giant white apes came out of the fog. Looking at the raging red eyes and a row of sharp teeth, Zhang Mengyao flinched. However, she remembered Tang Shaoyang's instructions clearly.

”Don't move from your spot without my order! Only kill the dying beast I toss to you! Throw the carcass out after you kill the ape!”

She stayed on her spot, trusting her life to her man.

Whoosh!

At the same time, Tang Shaoyang made his move. He swung the battle-ax horizontally, sweeping the apes that came out of the fog. Over ten apes were sliced apart.

Bugh! Bugh!

Zhang Mengyao did not know when, but two dying apes landed in front of her. She snapped out from the shock and stabbed the ape's head with her swords.

As the two apes died, she dropped the shield and moved forward swiftly. She grabbed the ape's ankle and threw the dead body outside of the fogged area.

Actually, Zhang Mengyao did not understand why Tang Shaoyang ordered this. But she noticed that Lu An also did the same. In his right hand was holding a sword and his other hand was throwing the dead bodies outside.

The thing surprised her was that Lu An easily faced five to seven apes at the same time. Lu An was so strong, the teenager that much younger than her was stronger than she thought.

Bugh! Bugh!

”Zhang Mengyao! Focus!” Tang Shaoyang called out as he tossed two dying apes. He was somewhat disappointed with Zhang Mengyao's performance.

As she was a soldier, his expectation was high. However, as the battle started, the girl's performance was somewhat disappointing.

'Nah, I don't need her battle power, but her administration skill in the military!' Thought Tang Shaoyang.

Being called out harshly, Zhang Mengyao turned around and stabbed her sword to the two apes in front of her.

Again, she repeated the same action. She grabbed the ape corpse and threw it out. Then, she picked her shield and put it on her back.

As she was done with this, Zhang Mengyao noticed another two dying apes flew toward her. This time, her action was swift. She slashed her sword at one dying ape in the air and slashed another dying ape's neck.

She had done it faster than before. The same action was repeated again and again. As time went by, the dying apes that came to her became quicker as well.

Ten minutes later, she heard the toneless robotic voice on her head.

[You have leveled up!]

[You gained 2 attribute points!]

[You can allocate the attribute point by opening the status screen!]
