374: assault
“What do you mean, ‘just the right amount’? You are…”
Xiao Fan said this, then suddenly noticed something, looking into Chen Du’s eyes and exclaiming, “Your eyes… Fiend! You’re an Earthly Fiend!”
The eyes of the Underground Alien Race are all white, which is easy to identify.
The masks worn by the Big-Eared Alien Race are different from the clown mask on Chen Du’s face; their masks can cover their eyes, as they can’t see clearly in the Underground darkness anyway, making eyes almost useless.
But Chen Du’s clown mask was the kind that revealed the eyes.
Chen Du smiled faintly at this, saying indifferently, “You chose this place yourself. You can scream your lungs out here, and no one will find you.”
“Besides, if someone else came over and saw you in this place, what would they think?”
“Would you be disgraced, or would everything be taken from you?”
Seeing this, Xiao Fan clenched his back teeth, finally forcing himself to calm down:
“What do you want to do?”
Xiao Fan had gradually calmed down by now. He noticed that Chen Du’s Life Strength Rank was only 16.
This Rank was comparable to his, but how could he subdue Tong Yi, who was Rank 19, with a single move?
It was simply incomprehensible; the opponent hadn’t even activated a Mystic Treasure.
This made him have many more conjectures about Chen Du, which was also the main reason he didn’t dare to act rashly.
“Do what?”
Chen Du lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said:
“I want all the devouring grass here.”
“All the devouring grass?”
“Haha!”
“Absurd!”
Xiao Fan heard this and said angrily, directly giving an impolite command:
“Attack together!”
This place wasn't big. If they started fighting, Chen Du would have no space to dodge and could only take the blows head-on. He refused to believe that one person could defeat all of them.
Although he didn't know what trump card the opponent had, he had no choice at this moment. He absolutely could not share the devouring grass with others.
At worst, a few trusted subordinates would die!
Chen Du was not surprised. As the opponents made their move, he also struck decisively, first using force with his right hand to directly break the wrist of the one named Tong Yi.
The opponent was one of the strongest of the Dire Wolf Civilization, and the other was Tong Liu, who had initially told him to stop.
These two aliens were the only two Rank 19 individuals among the seven.
Chen Du had long swords in both of his rings, but he chose not to take them out at this moment.
This wasn't because Chen Du liked to show off, but because it wasn't necessary.
Moreover, when he subdued Tong Yi bare-handed earlier, he had a subtle feeling in his heart.
He knew this feeling all too well: it was the feeling of a Martial Skill about to break out of its cocoon!
In other words, Chen Du’s Martial Skill was about to reach Entrance to the Microscopic 21%!
Although it had just reached Entrance to the Microscopic 20%, this Entrance to the Microscopic 20% was achieved by the Clone in the Crystal Space.
As the main Chen Du, he could also improve his Martial Skill level, but he was busy with other things, and the efficiency was not as good as in the Crystal Space, so he hadn't improved it.
After a long period of accumulation, he had also gained some insights.
The Crystal Clone was indeed suitable for improving Martial Skills, but Chen Du wasn't solely reliant on it for improvement.
Just now, without using a weapon, he had a different kind of feeling, as if in an Epiphany.
Of course, not everyone would experience this. Chen Du had this feeling for two reasons: one was that he usually fought with weapons, so suddenly not using weapons naturally gave him some different insights.
However, this was secondary; the main reason was that Chen Du’s Martial Skill talent was high enough.
The Crystal Clone, combined with the Zhan Zhan Fruit, constantly triggered the 1% mechanism. Although the speed was slow, it had the advantage of being endless and didn't require using his own time.
Everyone has 24 hours a day, but the Crystal Clone allowed Chen Du to have an additional 24 hours a day to do things.
“Damn it! He’s clearly only Rank 16, so why is his strength so great!”
Tong Liu exclaimed. He didn't participate in the meat paste production process, so he hadn't paid much attention at first, thinking that Tong Yi was careless or that the opponent had used some dirty trick.
Now, except for Xiao Fan, all six of them were engaged in combat, yet they still couldn't take down the opponent. The opponent was fighting in such a confined space, with no room to dodge.
It was as if he was exchanging blows directly with all six of them, and even so, it was a draw!
“How is that possible?!”
“Even if he’s an Earthly Fiend, Rank 16 is Rank 16. No matter how terrifying the civilization, the corresponding strength for the same Life Strength Rank should be the same!”
Xiao Fan, who was observing from the side, was incredibly surprised. He didn't participate in the battle, partly because of his identity, and partly because his strength was indeed insufficient, only Rank 16.
But when he saw Chen Du, who was also Rank 16, actually able to fight 1V6, he was utterly dumbfounded.
It should be known that among these 6 people, the weakest was a Rank 17 Advanced Martial Artist.
But this Fiend’s actions were simply defying common sense!
Chen Du’s base strength was 440,000 jin. The two Rank 19 Martial Artists, unless they had Five Secret Treasures, could not suppress him in terms of strength.
Furthermore, the opponents’ Martial Skills hadn't reached Second-Order, while Chen Du’s Martial Skill level was already Second-Order Entrance to the Microscopic 20%. The gap was too large.
In this situation, let alone Five Secret Treasures, even if these people collectively had Six Secret Realms, they couldn't defeat Chen Du bare-handed.
Although not having a weapon would limit the physical strength developed by Martial Skills to 30%, he didn't even need 30% to deal with these people!
If Xiao Fan knew that Chen Du was holding back while fighting 1V6 at this moment, who knows what expression he would have.
[Congratulations, Host, Crescent Moon Swordplay has advanced from Second-Order Entrance to the Microscopic 20% to Second-Order Entrance to the Microscopic 21%]
The familiar notification sound rang in Chen Du’s mind.
It was at this very moment that Chen Du’s eyes suddenly became sharp, and the strength in his hands instantly increased.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Chen Du punched each of them, sending the six flying as if he were hitting small children.
“This…”
“This is Qi!”
“You, like my father, have actually reached Second-Order Martial Skill!”
“You actually used them as whetstones to improve your Martial Skill!”
Xiao Fan said in shock. The opponent was also only Rank 16 like him, yet he had achieved Second-Order Martial Skill. He, a Genius of the Dire Wolf Civilization, was only at the First-Order limit right now.
Could it be that the Surface was full of such monsters?
If it weren't for the premonition that his Martial Skill was about to Breakthrough, Chen Du would have swept them away from the start, as he didn't like cat-and-mouse games.
What he wanted was swiftness and decisiveness!
At this moment, the six bruised and swollen individuals, seeing Chen Du, backed away in fright. Unfortunately, the space was too narrow, and after a few steps, their backs were against the wall.
Chen Du looked around, gazing at everyone:
“Don’t be afraid, I’m a good person.”
Then he fixed his gaze on Xiao Fan, smiling slightly:
“I want to ask you something about the devouring grass. I don’t think you’ll refuse to answer, will you?”
