Spare Me, Great Lord!

The white fog instantly engulfed the entire Koh Chang like a tornado and just like the other remains.

Those tour guides and boatmen who had just left Pattaya still had not recovered from the shock. Had the Golden Foundation not chased them away in advance, they could hardly survive in the remains.

Unlike the Heavenly Network, the Practitioners here would never put in much effort to save commoners for selfless reasons.

On the other hand, at the Beimang remains, the Heavenly Network spared no effort in rescuing all ordinary soldiers inside. After all, an inaccurate aim of the bullet would be completely useless against the skeletons.

As the doleful wailing roared past Lu Shu’s ears, a blanket of thick fog rolled over him. Before he could realize it, Lu Xiaoyu’s hands had already disappeared from his. As expected, the randomization of one’s position was certain upon entry into the remains.

Just in the blink of the eye, gray encompassed the entire world. Beaches and forests had been replaced with pitch-black rocks, and there were no signs of any vegetation.

Inky clouds rolled in the sky, pressing against the ground as though they were within reach of a single leap.

But Lu Shu did not take the risk. What if there were unknown dangers hidden inside? The motion of the clouds seemed to have conferred upon them a soul, staring down at all creatures underneath.

Glancing around, besides monstrous stones, there were only two people in Lu Shu’s vision. They were Caucasian, but Lu Shu was uncertain of where specifically they were from.

He climbed on top of a huge rock for a better view of the landscape. To his surprise, there was no one else.

How big must the remains be for them to be so scattered? Lu Shu’s brows knitted together as he tried to distinguish the slight difference in energy waves in the atmosphere. However, there was no clear indication of any variation in the Spirit Qi concentration.

Then, Lu Shu raised his hand in secret to summon Li Dian’s compass, but even the compass failed to identify the core region.

This was unprecedented. Who would expect the abnormally uniform distribution of Spirit Qi in this remains?

Then, how could he confirm the location of the core region?

Meanwhile, the other two had already started a conversation. As far as Lu Shu could hear, they were actually acquaintances!

Lu Shu could roughly understand them due to their straightforward conversation and relatively slow pace. One of them, a Metahuman, suddenly turned to Lu Shu and asked in English with a friendly smile, “Are you a Practitioner or Metahuman? How’s your power?”

Hesitantly, Lu Shu replied in heavily accented English, pretending as if he were unable to comprehend his meaning, “Can you speak Chinese?”

Refusing to buy it, Tandy tested the water with a few other questions, only to receive the exact same answer.

Then, he whispered to his partner, “He doesn’t understand English. Although we are from different organizations, we can totally join forces now and test that Asian’s capabilities. If he is weaker than us, we’d better wipe him out before looking for resources.”

Despite their low volume, it was completely audible with Lu Shu’s extraordinary hearing.

“I agree. If he is stronger, get rid of him,” the other Caucasian said.

The two were communicating openly in English with the assumed language barrier as their defense. They had met each other in Europe as two low-level individual Practitioners. In fact, the environment was not so friendly overseas and violence was a common scene. Thus, it was their subconscious reaction to exterminate the weak.

As a matter of fact, they were considered rookies as well, both at the peak of Class E. But in their eyes, the bare-handed Lu Shu did not seem like an expert either. Which expert would not bring any magical weapons with him?

Among unaffiliated Practitioners, the two’s capabilities were slightly above the average.

Besides the Metahuman was a Practitioner. He asked Lu Shu with a kind smile, “ABCDEF?”

They knew that the alphabet was comparatively, easy to understand. Lu Shu’s face suddenly lit up as though in enlightenment, “C!”

The two men drew a startled breath. How unlucky must they be to bump into a Class C pro?!

Before they could recover from their surprise, Lu Shu added, “I like C-Cup!”

“From Tandy Carter’s distress, +199!”

“From…”

Who the hell asked you what you like? We were referring to levels! Is it the right time for such discussions?!

Tandy explained again patiently, “You! ABCDEF?”

Lu Shu mused for two seconds, frowning, “ABCDEFG, HIJKLMN, OPQ, RST…”

Why did you start singing?! The Caucasians were utterly confused.

“From Tandy Carter’s distress, +199!”

“From…”

Game over. No communication was possible. But it would be too rash to take action now. They decided to continue with the safe option, “Hold on. We can take action later when he finally reveals his abilities.”

Meanwhile, Lu Shu was already mocking them secretly. Apparently, the conflicts abroad had intensified to a large extent for them to internalize such an aggressive mindset.

Tandy suddenly frowned, “Do you not speak English?”

Lu Shu gave an English reply, “Hello!”

The Caucasian Metahuman hesitated, “Hi.”

“How are you?”

The Caucasian almost burst out laughing in annoyance. I am serious but do you see what you are doing? He did not give up, “Do you seriously not understand English? What Class are you? Metahuman or Practitioner?”

“I’m fine. Thank you. And you*?”

*A typical line in China’s primary school English textbook.

“…”

“From Tandy Carter’s distress, +199!”

Tandy took a deep breath before cursing, “Foolish!”

“F**k you.”

“…”

“From Tandy Carter’s distress, +666!”

“From…”

The sudden twist caught them off guard… Tandy had the urge to confront Lu Shu straightaway, so turns out that you actually CAN understand English?!

Awkward.

Just now, Tandy had purposely picked a word not found in daily conversation vocabulary books. At a moment of life and death, it was a wise choice to expect the worst.

Which was, Lu Shu could understand their conversation completely and he was indeed stronger…

They suddenly became cautious, ready to attack anytime. There was still a slim ray of hope though, that the young Chinese man in front of them was really just a newbie.

So what if he understood? He would not be able to talk when he was dead!

However, in the next instant, a legendary-looking spear suddenly appeared in Lu Shu’s hands, supported in his shoulders. Despite his grin, his English was cold as ice, “I’m afraid it’ll be too late… even if you beg me for your lives now.”
