“Do you know what this thing is?” Bai Han asked Lin Xiaoli.

“I’m afraid only you know,” Lin Xiaoli replied.

“Why didn’t she come to see me personally?” Bai Han asked.

“I’m sorry, things are too complicated. If I were to explain, it’s likely that you won’t understand the truth in the end. Only after you experience it yourself will you know why I can’t explain it to you. If possible, can we go to that mystic realm now?” Lin Xiaoli suggested.

The decisive evidence was the torn edge of a cloak. When the huge spider and terrifying monster appeared in front of Lin Yuwei and Bai Han, Lin Yuwei hid in the cloak in fear and accidentally tore it off in a panic.

He quickly used the rag to match the broken mark on his cloak. It could be said to be a perfect fit. There was no such coincidence in the world. In other words, the person in front of him must have a very inextricable relationship with Lin Yuwei.

While touring the school, Bai Han saw small paintings made by the children for the Lin sisters, as well as happy creations after awakening some simple skills. One child had even awakened the talent to build simple houses, and had written information about the Lin sisters on the house. Bai Han had to admit that the Lin sisters’ relationship was real.

“Where are we headed?” Bai Han asked curiously.

“We don’t have a car, so we’ll have to rely on simple transportation to get to the mystic realm. Unless, of course, you want to join a sect and get them to provide you with a car,” Lin Xiaoli replied.

“But we can’t just skip the scenery on the way, can we? Besides, we’re a team now. You have your own school and these children will likely become powerful players in the future. You’ve already formed your own sect, so there’s no need to be modest.”

During the car ride, Lin Xiaoli explained to Bai Han the requirements for obtaining a convertible. One had to have a complete sect or family to be eligible to purchase one at the World Trade Center.

[World Trade Center: In the center of this world, there is a huge shopping mall. There are all kinds of goods in the mall. You can buy items in the mall by spending luck value, experience value, or the purest gold coins and diamonds.

[Experience: Every time you gain 1000 EXP, you can gain one experience point here.]

[Gold Coins and Diamonds: You can obtain them by selling your low-level or old equipment, or by selling equipment that doesn’t belong to your class. There is a conversion relationship between gold coins and diamonds. 1000 gold coins can be exchanged for one diamond.]

[Note: Special items require special permission to purchase.]

After they discussed the transportation arrangements, the long journey began. It was not the peak tourist season, and there were hardly any people on the train except for them. However, their solitude was soon disrupted by a strange sound.

“Ke Ke-! Ke Ke-!”

“There seem to be some stowaways,” said Bai Han.

Lin Xiaoli looked at him, wondering if someone was monitoring them or trying to stop them.

“Sister Xiaoli, I’m afraid you didn’t do a good job of security,” Bai Han said.

“It’s already so late, and there are hardly any passengers on the train. Besides, this isn’t the peak season for world tourism or dungeon-crawling. How could there be anyone else?”

“You should know that there’s no such thing as an impenetrable wall. How could the Zhou family let me off so easily?”

Saying so, Bai Han took out his Evil Scythe and Void Staff.

“If we don’t eliminate them, we might not be able to enjoy this train ride,” he said.

They then walked towards the back of the train, from where the sound was coming.

“Roar!”

As they opened the trunk door, a few red-eyed monsters leaped out of the glass!

[Monster Name: Red-Eyed Mercenary!]

[Level: 14]

[Health Points: 950]

[Attack Power: 240]

[Special Ability: Red-Eyed Mercenary. He always believes in his master and has been implanted with information to kill a designated target. Therefore, the Red-Eyed Mercenary will stop at nothing to attack the target! When using the red eyes to lock onto the target, the Red-Eyed Mercenary’s HP and attack power will be doubled!]]

“Make sure you avoid their gaze, or it could be the end of us!”

“You really think we’d be scared of something like this?”

As Bai Han spoke, he swung his evil scythe directly into the eyes of the first mercenary!

-1479

With just a small attack, he was able to take out the mercenary’s entire health bar!

Lin Xiaoli was stunned by the quick and efficient attack.

However, the other red-eyed mercenaries soon locked onto Bai Han, and one of them even spat out a bloody-looking hidden weapon!

“Watch out for their hidden weapons!”

Bai Han swiftly turned around and used his staff to decapitate the attacking mercenary.

-1879

These were just normal attacks and didn’t result in any critical hits, but suddenly 10 to 20 red-eyed mercenaries climbed through the train window in front of them, fixating their gaze on Bai Han.

As their eyes locked onto their target, they emitted a blood-red aura and shot even more intense hidden weapons from their eyes.

“Ah!”

Lin Xiaoli couldn’t bear to watch the scene unfold. Countless hidden weapons filled the entire carriage, but she remained unharmed as the red-eyed mercenaries would only target their designated victim.

“Roar!”

As the red-eyed mercenaries let out their roar, their heads were swiftly severed by Bai Han. Having consumed an Agility Golden Body Fruit, he was able to quickly eliminate all the enemies with lightning-fast precision.

Lin Xiaoli couldn’t believe what she had just witnessed. She didn’t even have time to blink before realizing that all of their attackers had been eliminated.

[Successfully killed red-eyed mercenary! EXP +48, Luck bonus, double EXP!]

[Successfully killed red-eyed mercenary! EXP +46, Luck bonus, double EXP!]

[Successfully killed red-eyed mercenary captain! EXP +69, Luck bonus, double EXP!]

…

It was apparent that the attack was over, but given that the assailants had come to stop them, they were unlikely to have deployed such a simplistic monster. They likely had something more formidable up their sleeves.
