Two

The leader's shout made the surrounding mercenaries rush towards Chen Mo.

"It's really hard to intimidate them with just me alone …"

Chen Mo's face sank. His gaze swept across the mercenaries who had swarmed forward. The strength of these mercenaries was between three and five star Dou Zhe.

Chen Mo had never experienced actual combat. Although he knew that in fantasy novels, the difference of one level was like a natural chasm, he was still a novice Dou Zhe so he wasn't sure if he could win against these people.

So to be safe, he decided to run first.

He only needed a thought to think.

"Run!" Chen Mo pulled Butterfly's hand and ran.

"Want to run?" The leader froze for a moment. He was so arrogant just a moment ago and now he wanted to run.

Leaving behind a few mercenaries to guard the remaining Nagas, the rest of the mercenaries chased after them.

They didn't run far.

Butterfly screamed. Her speed wasn't fast and she couldn't keep up with Chen Mo's running rhythm. Soon, she fell to the ground.

Chen Mo's face changed as he quickly stopped, "Are you okay?"

"No … Don't worry about me. Go quickly …"

Butterfly couldn't understand why this human saved her. But seeing that the mercenaries were about to catch up, she didn't want to implicate him so she let him go.

"I said, I will bring you away."

Chen Mo was not going to let go of this opportunity to bind to it.

But Butterfly's snake tail was too long and Chen Mo couldn't carry her.

"Looks like we can only fight." Chen Mo took out the Strength Amassing Pill he just got from the system and threw it into his mouth.

Immediately, Chen Mo felt his strength increase by a lot.

The Strength Amassing Pill could increase a person's strength to a certain extent.

[Ding! Favorability + 2. You have received a second-grade Healing Pill.]

Chen Mo's words moved Butterfly.

She realized that this human was different from the one who caught her.

He was a good person.

[Ding! Favorability + 1. You have received a Favorability Coin.]

"Hmm?" Chen Mo froze for a moment. Why did favorability increase by 1? Is it because of my handsome face?

But what was this Favorability Coin?

Without giving Chen Mo too much time to think, the mercenaries had already surrounded Chen Mo and his companion.

"Do it, kill that brat. Make sure you don't hurt that snake girl. She's worth more than your lives."

The leader raised his broadsword, waved his hand, and shouted coldly.

"Yes!" Hearing their leader's order, five of the dozen mercenaries behind him immediately split up and charged towards Chen Mo and the young man with ferocious looks on their faces.

Chen Mo took a deep breath. Before he crossed over, he was a second-year student. He had learned a few moves from the school's Taekwondo club. Although it was just for show, he still knew a few moves.

"Boom!"

Chen Mo's gaze swept across the five mercenaries who were charging towards him. He dodged the weapons that were swinging towards him and with a sweep of his leg, he kicked out heavily.

The somewhat sluggish Dou Qi in his body was like a rushing tide at this moment, wildly surging through the Qi Paths in his thighs.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

The strength of a nine star Dou Zhe was fully unleashed and instantly sent the five mercenaries flying.

"Nine star Dou Zhe!"

The leader's face sank. He did not expect that this brat in front of him who looked so young actually had such strength.

"Don't hold back, attack together." The leader waved his hand and signaled for everyone to attack together.

"Be careful!" Die said worriedly.

Looking at the mercenaries charging towards him from all directions, Chen Mo let out a light breath and his face became serious.

But soon, he made his move.

He bent down, grabbed a handful of yellow sand and threw it out. Then, he raised his fist and smashed it towards the mercenaries who were charging in front of him.

"Kacha …" One of the mercenaries' face was directly smashed in by Chen Mo. His body fell to the ground and wailed in pain.

Soon, the few mercenaries who were charging in front were beaten to the ground by Chen Mo.

"Elementary Yellow Rank Dou Technique, Blood Sucking Wild Blade!"

The leader saw the opportunity and launched a sneak attack. His large blade emitted a shocking blood-red light as it slashed towards Chen Mo.

"Be careful behind you …" Die screamed.

Hearing this.

Chen Mo quickly turned around to dodge. Then, his pupils shrank as the blood-red blade brushed past his face, causing him to break out in a layer of cold sweat.

If he did not dodge in time, this blade would have sent him to meet the King of Hell.

This was the first time in Chen Mo's life that he felt so close to death.

"Be careful …" Die screamed again.

Just as Chen Mo turned around and snatched the saber from the leader, one of the mercenaries who had surrounded him slashed his saber at his back.

His clothes were directly cut. The pain of his flesh being cut almost made Chen Mo fall to the ground.

"Damn …" Chen Mo felt a burning pain on his back.

"Are you okay?"

Seeing that Chen Mo was injured, Die suddenly became nervous. He was injured to save her, she was the one who implicated him.

Die's eyes were moist as she shouted, "Quickly leave, don't worry about me!"

"Haha, want to leave? It's too late, kill him!" The leader shouted. All the mercenaries responded, including himself.

But Chen Mo was stunned for a moment.

Because the moment Butterfly told him to leave, the system notification rang out.

[Ding, favorability + 10. Obtained one level increase in cultivation.]

Suddenly.

An incomparably majestic energy poured into Chen Mo's body. Like a warm current flowing through without any side effects, Chen Mo's 9 star Dou Zhe strength was directly raised to 1 star Dou Shi.

This happened in an instant and nothing strange happened. The leader and the others did not see that Chen Mo had a breakthrough.

"A bunch of trash, it's my turn!"

Looking at the mercenaries rushing towards him, Chen Mo's Dou Qi began to surge rapidly under the influence of his killing intent.

On the surface of his body, black and white Dou Qi gradually broke out of his body and formed a thin black and white Dou Qi cloak.

Catalyzing Dou Qi into an energy cloak is the symbol of a Dou Shi expert. This kind of energy cloak can not only increase the owner's defense, speed, and attack, it can also better absorb energy from the outside world.

When the leader saw Chen Mo's sudden change, it was already too late.

"Peng peng peng!!!"

In the blink of an eye, all the mercenaries, including the leader, were beaten to the ground by Chen Mo.

"You … you hid your strength?"

The leader spat out a mouthful of blood. He never thought that Chen Mo could break through to the Dou Shi realm in an instant and thought that he was hiding his strength.

Chen Mo did not answer the leader's question. Instead, he picked up a large blade that fell on the ground and slowly walked towards the leader.

The leader's face changed, "You … what do you want to do?"

"What do you think?"

"You want to kill … kill me?"

"Didn't you want to kill me just now?"

"I … I was wrong. Sir, please spare my life. Please let me go …" The leader hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Do you think it's possible?" Chen Mo held the large blade and continued to walk closer.

But at this moment, Die blocked in front of him and timidly said, "Can you not kill people?"

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recalled that her character in the anime was kind. It was also because she couldn't bear to kill people that she used a forbidden space technique during the tribe's ceremony and left the Naga tribe.

"Okay." Chen Mo said.

[Ding! Favorability + 1. Obtained 1 Favorability coin]

Die's face revealed a smile.
