The Black Book

"I said we can't defend it, let's retreat!"

Their eardrums were injured by the shock wave of the explosion. If the sound was a little quieter, they couldn't hear it even if they were face to face.

"No! Lord Nalan gave a death order, asking us to hold this high ground! Reinforcements will be here soon!"

"Damn it! Ten days ago, he said reinforcements would arrive! But now more than half of our brothers are dead or injured! Reinforcements haven't come yet!!"

The Qing army roared with red eyes, staring at the captain's eyes.

If they weren't all new troops formed and trained by Nalan Shu, ordinary Qing troops would have collapsed long ago under such a casualty rate!

But even the well-trained new troops, facing the enemy's free artillery coverage, their morale almost collapsed.

The whistling bullets flew over his head, and the captain looked around, watching the brothers with blood on their faces looking at him expectantly, and he couldn't say the order to them to hold on.

But deserting the battlefield... that would be a death sentence!

Just as the captain was struggling with his mind and body, a messenger ran along the trench and shouted excitedly.

"Reinforcements are coming! Reinforcements are coming!!!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone seemed to be injected with chicken blood. The morale that was almost collapsed suddenly recovered, and they instantly felt that they could fight for another 300 rounds!

"Where are they? Where are the reinforcements?!"

Holding the messenger, the captain asked with red eyes.

"Just behind! He followed me."

The messenger pointed behind him, and following his line of sight, the captain saw a strange figure wearing a hood, covered in a dark cloak, without a trace of dirt on his body, and incompatible with the atmosphere of the battlefield.

"Are you... the vanguard? Where is your main force?"

The hood shrouded in shadows was slightly raised, revealing a handsome and childish face that did not look like an ordinary person.

"There is no large army, and I am the only reinforcement."

"What?!!"

The unexpected words drilled into his eardrums. Looking at the powerless handsome boy, the captain's legs weakened, and he sat down on the ground with a plop, muttering in despair.

"It's over..."

However, the boy on the opposite side smiled slightly, and his dark and deep eyes turned to the outside of the trench, looking at the sparse locust soldiers rushing up.

"Don't worry, it's a small scene, I'm enough."

Without waiting for the captain's response, the boy lightly tapped his toes, jumped out of the trench, and walked towards the enemy slowly but quickly.

"Get ready!!!"

Seeing a figure jumping out of the opposite trench, a locust squad leader gave an order without hesitation and raised his saber.

Several senior veterans around him quickly lay on the ground, pulled the bolt and aimed.

"Shoot!!"

Swish~

The saber was swung down, and several veterans pulled the trigger at the same time, and the hot bullets were fired at supersonic speed, accurately shooting at the target hundreds of meters away.

Bang, bang, bang~

However, after a round of volleys, the target was still moving forward steadily, without being affected at all.

"What happened?"

"The target just paused for a moment, and our lead time missed!"

"Qikexiu! Come again! Get ready!"

Raising the saber again, the squad leader commanded the sniper again, but this time the target just paused for a moment, so that all the bullets calculated for the lead time fell into the air.

On the other side of the battlefield, Zhu Haomiao followed the guidance of his spiritual sense, pacing forward quickly or slowly, just avoiding all the bullets shot at him.

While testing the supernatural combat intuition of the perfect realm of [Swift Wind Power], the boy couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and came to the locust army that rushed the most fiercely.

"Xine!!"

Bang!

The light flame came out of the barrel, and the bullet came in an instant at a distance of less than five meters, but Zhu Haomiao gently turned sideways before the enemy pulled the trigger, and the bullet passed by his clothes a few centimeters in front of his chest without any threat.

Swish~

The sharp bayonet that followed stabbed into nothingness, and the two men passed by each other as if they were performing a routine, leaving the locust soldier kneeling on the ground, holding his throat, trembling all over.

Blood like a fountain could not stop gushing out from between his fingers, and quickly formed a pool of blood on the ground.

Without even looking at the corpse behind him, Zhu Haomiao threw away the bloody mess in his hand.

Blood!

Killing!

Destruction!

…………

A trace of brutal and cruel hideous blood flashed in his eyes, and the original sin that had been suppressed in the depths of his soul for a long time began to stir.

Zhu Haomiao restrained his desire to slaughter.

The seemingly slow but actually fast steps easily broke into the defense circle of a locust soldier. The overly long gun bayonet was just a burden at this distance.

In the enemy's horrified eyes, the young man raised his slender palm, and the five fingers with [Armor Breaking Force] pierced into his chest like a sharp sword, easily pulling out a hot and twitching heart.

After tearing off the blood vessels involved, the boy's steps did not stop at all, as if he had picked an apple from the tree and brought it to his nose to sniff it intoxicatedly.

The sweet and delicious aroma of blood was refreshing, and Zhu Haomiao inexplicably felt a thirsty appetite, wanting to chew and swallow the heart in his hand.

But after a moment of hesitation, he still suppressed the abnormal excitement and desire, and gently dropped the organ in his hand.

People can't, at least they shouldn't eat these things...

[Black Book]: Dao Heart +1

Zhu Haomiao: "???"

Blinking inexplicably, Zhu Haomiao walked towards the next lucky audience without stopping, ignoring his screams and resistance before death, and gently twisted his neck.

I left him a whole body on such a dangerous battlefield. I'm not a bad guy, why would [Dao Heart] be increased by one? !

The boy’s eyes did not stay on the twitching corpse behind him for even a second. Nonsense thoughts rolled in his mind. He wandered carelessly on the battlefield, turning well-trained locust soldiers into cold corpses.

A few hundred meters away, an officer put down his telescope and drew his saber angrily.

In just a few minutes, his company lost more than a dozen people. If the skirmish line was not too scattered, this number would be several times higher!

If this continues, the soldiers on the front line will be killed before they can touch the enemy’s position!

On the other side, Zhu Haomiao COS Nine Yin White Bone Claws crushed the head of a locust soldier. He was shaking off the brains in his hands when he suddenly heard a shrill roar.

"Chinese beast! Die!!!"

Accompanied by a sharp cold light, the sharp saber fell from the sky, slashing down with the momentum of splitting the boy in half.

In a flash, Zhu Haomiao grabbed the enemy's fist holding the knife with his hand and squeezed it gently.

Crack~

The inhuman strength of up to 58 points poured out like a hydraulic press, squeezing the opponent's fist into a pile of mud.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Amidst the shrill screams, Zhu Haomiao grabbed the samurai sword, injected his inner breath, and slashed with his backhand.
