Bab 110: Li Mingda's Return
The form of the disaster legion, the rank of the rune stones, the second-tier legion buildings, the functionality of the stables, and the legion command tower/camp can summon a hundred disaster knights to serve you. Currently, the legion members stand at zero/one demon battle steed.
I hold no particular opinion regarding the disaster world, yet conveying that to them proves challenging.
In response to Wang Zhong's inquiry, I scratched my head and replied, "I feel that vanquishing more foes will yield greater benefits. What do you think?
Should we seek out additional monsters to slay?"
Wang Zhong fell into contemplation, clearly intrigued by my suggestion, which alarmed Tang Lei, who hastily interjected, "We should avoid danger; encountering those monsters again could certainly lead to fatalities.
You cannot disregard everyone's safety."
I retorted coldly, "Then what do you propose we do?" Tang Lei was momentarily speechless; how could he know how to confront this situation? After a prolonged pause, he finally murmured, "I believe we should unite our efforts and thoughtfully discuss our future course of action."
"Discuss what nonsense!"
I snapped irritably. Tang Lei was utterly useless; he had no solutions to offer yet still expected us to heed his counsel.
Who would tolerate such a fool? I turned directly to Wang Zhong and stated, "I intend to head north; what do you think?"
Wang Zhong regarded me thoughtfully, a knowing smile playing on his lips as he replied, "Very well!" With our direction confirmed, Gu Lengzhai let out a bitter laugh and said to Tang Lei, "I believe it would be best for us to act together. Should we not depart promptly?"
Tang Lei appeared quite flustered but dared not voice any objections.
With a dismissive wave, he turned to rally the others. This rotund man had a knack for rallying support; after my brief absence, Huang Shengqiu, Lu Li, Sun Yan, and the high school girl Chen Xiu had all gravitated to his side. The lawyer Zhang Bo seemed somewhat indecisive, having navigated society and thus retained some awareness.
He was not particularly close to anyone at this moment. Wang Lili appeared to have made her choice, aligning herself with us, showing no signs of discontent regarding my and Wang Zhong's decision.
She was eager to leave this place, wielding a long knife in one hand and carrying an assortment of items she had scavenged, ready for immediate departure.
Wang Zhong mounted the black steed, leading the charge out of the camp.
I strolled leisurely at the back, my hands stuffed in my pockets. I had already devised a plan for training this group; within ten days, I would complete this task, and then it would be time for the next batch.
The icy true qi within me slowly surged through the hand yangming large intestine meridian. Having previously cleared the hand taiyin lung meridian, I found myself quite adept at it this time. However, the true qi within me now differed from when I utilized the cards;
it coursed through various meridians, manifesting sensations of cold, heat, roughness, smoothness, expansion, and contraction. Quickening or slowing at will, it flowed with remarkable flexibility, guided solely by my thoughts.
It could navigate any path, but only when I channeled true qi along the route of the nameless martial arts technique did the chilling sensation resonate throughout my meridians.
With lingering concerns on my mind, my pace naturally slowed, and I took on the responsibility of maintaining the rear guard to avert any potential dangers.
A fragrant breeze wafted by as Lu Li broke away from the group and approached me. She seemed to have been holding back for quite some time and quickly exclaimed, "Could you ask Wang Zhong to let me ride that black horse for a while?
I'm utterly exhausted and can barely keep going!" My contemplation of the intricate changes within my true qi was abruptly disrupted by Lu Li's interruption, which soured my mood. I asked brusquely, "On what grounds do you think you deserve to ride?"
"Because I'm a girl!
she pouted. Seeing her sulky expression ignited my anger; I had already found her annoying when she competed with Chen Xiu for that old horse. Her obstinacy in wanting to leave yesterday had completely shattered my hopes for her judgment.
This foolish woman has a brain filled with water on the left and flour on the right; when she's still, it's one thing, but when she moves, it's all a mess."
Lu Li, oblivious to my irritation, pressed closer and declared loudly, "If you don't find me a mount, I won't leave! Let's see what you do then!" I firmly pushed her aside, lacking even the interest to explain my intentions, opting instead to express myself through action.
As I strode away, Lu Li, in a fit of pique, mounted the horse.
It wasn't until she saw us moving further away that she panicked.
Just as she attempted to chase after me, a gaunt horse appeared on the horizon, carrying a disheveled man, a specter of dread that startled Lu Li into action. She dashed forward, her long legs propelling her towards the front of the line, forgetting her fatigue. I sensed the shift behind me without needing to look back; the mysterious beauty, Judina, had overlooked something.
My mental acuity remained unaffected in the disaster world, indicating that my lineage was indeed quite extraordinary.
A slight frown crossed my brow as I sensed the rider's presence, heavy with the aura of death.
This was not particularly unusual in the disaster world, where the dark overlord's minions were common. However, the identity of this rider posed a dilemma; it was none other than Li Mingda, who had abandoned us not long ago, and even the emaciated horse beneath him was the same as before. "How could this man suddenly become an undead creature and return alone?
Lu Li dashed past me, unleashing a scream that drew the attention of the group ahead. Though Tang Lei and the others had been walking ahead of me, they had not strayed too far, as Wang Zhong's black steed had created a considerable distance. They certainly did not dare to distance themselves from me, their reliable support.
When Tang Lei saw the solitary rider approaching the group with a menacing countenance, he was seized with fear, cold sweat trickling down his back.
He let out a loud shout and sprinted forward. His panic set off a chain reaction, causing Wang Lili, Chen Xiu, Sun Yan, and Zhang Bo to flee in terror, while Huang Shengqiu stumbled in fright, his legs turning to jelly, moving slower than a crawl. Only Gu Lengzhai mustered the courage to adopt a defensive stance, though his legs trembled slightly.
Li Mingda's eyes burned with a dim, dark red flame, bearing the marks of battle as he leisurely pursued the group on his old horse.
The steed beneath him appeared to have been ravaged by some corrosive force, its skull exposed, veins grotesquely visible, resembling a specter more than a living creature, reminiscent of the foul mounts ridden by disaster knights.
