"Chime!~"

System Prompt: Congratulations on slaying adventurers from the Bright Camp; you have earned 1 point!

System Prompt: Congratulations on slaying adventurers from the Bright Camp; you have earned 1 point!

...

Jiang Han's sword rose and fell, casting a captivating cold light that left corpses scattered on the ground.

"Stun them for me!"

Suddenly, several thief players launched simultaneous attacks from all directions.

Jiang Han evaded some but inevitably got hit by a portion of the attacks.

"Chime!~"

System Prompt: You were struck by the chilling rain of [Chisel Strike], stunned for 0.05 seconds, and lost 3 points of health!

"Chime!~"

System Prompt: You were struck by the [Chisel Strike] that should not be hindered, stunned for 0.02 seconds, and lost 2 points of health!

Regarding this, Jiang Han felt unsurprised. The more players gathered around him, the more terrifying the tenacity and additional health bonuses the system granted him. With the initial substantial disparity, their attempts to rely on control skills like Chisel Strike to stun endlessly were pure wishful thinking.

"Damn, a stun of 0.05 seconds, is this still a game?" Many thieves frowned.

All players, entering the game simultaneously, investing day and night, found the large gap in their control skills almost completely negated. The mood was understandably unpleasant.

Of course, they probably never considered that Jiang Han, under the protection of the Demon God, had already diverged from ordinary players, thoroughly embracing the NPC perspective and possessing an identity distinct from common adventurers.

"Spread out, too many players will make him stronger; we need to go wave by wave!"

Occasionally, rational players made suggestions, but unfortunately, the likelihood of implementation was slim. Everyone was after the unique reward, not a unified front, and no player would willingly sacrifice themselves for others.

"Swoosh..."

At a certain moment, a sharp edge emerged from the crowd, reaching Jiang Han and piercing his chest.

-5001!

Jiang Han felt a pain in his chest as his visible health dropped, but luckily, the surrounding adventurers were numerous enough; otherwise, this strike could have taken away a tenth of his health.

The blade plunged into Jiang Han's chest, and Kaelo grinned, "Jiang Han Shui, do you remember me?"

Scout!

[Furious Soldier Kaelo] (Silver-grade BOSS)

Level: 35

Health: ????

Attack: 800-850

Defense: 420-450

Skills: [Combo], [Advanced Swordsmanship], [Silver Light Sword Blade], [Rage]

Introduction: Originally a guard soldier in the newbie village, idle and unremarkable, he grew into a formidable figure in the town with the help of the village chief due to fortuitous circumstances.

...

"I remember."

Jiang Han's expression remained indifferent, no longer playful. He checked the opponent's attribute panel while nodding in response, "A foolish fellow driven by greed."

He didn't intend to break his promise, but the opponent's insatiable greed completely angered him, prompting him to abandon the idea of adhering to the contract.

Although he didn't know how Brandi managed to elevate a soldier from the newbie village to the level of a 35th-level silver-grade BOSS so quickly, he didn't care.

Since he's here, he must be cut down!

"You!"

Kaelo's face changed abruptly, "You violate the contract and still dare to boast?!"

"Why not?" Jiang Han sneered, "If you have the ability, kill me, consider it my request."

Because his conscience was condemned for breaking an inexplicable and unreasonable contract?

Such a person is too kind!

He could only say that for the Dark Camp, he made the right choice!

"Request? Hahaha..."

Understanding the mocking undertone, Kaelo laughed angrily, "Die for me!"

He withdrew the sword from Jiang Han's chest, then immediately unleashed several sharp attacks.

Facing the opponent's immensely powerful skill, Jiang Han chose to ignore it. He first controlled the opponent with the Grasp of the Undead, followed by a frenzy of slashes, depleting over 30,000 of the opponent's health.

Both of them engaged in a desperate fight, their life values plummeting rapidly, leaving nearby adventurers dumbfounded.

"Is he desperate?"

"Is Jiang Han Shui crazy? After all, he's an NPC of silver grade; no matter how you think about it, exchanging health like this isn't cost-effective, right?"

"Maybe he knows he's doomed and wants the NPC to take the reward?"

...

Those adventurers expressed uncertainty during their damage output.

In just two minutes, Jiang Han's life value hit bottom.

"Is that all you've got?"

Kaelo, with much better condition than Jiang Han, looked disdainful.

In response, Jiang Han, without turning his head, extended the Cold Cloud Sword sideways, instantly killing an adventurer approaching.

"Swoosh!"

A warm feeling swept over Jiang Han, and golden light soared.

Level 29!

At the same time, his health was fully restored.

Players: "..."

One level up, rendering all the damage inflicted by players meaningless.

"Yes, that's all I have." Without bothering to refute, Jiang Han replied lightly.

Yesterday, after completing the mission, he had accumulated a considerable amount of experience. Added to the adventurers he shot on the city tower and the current confrontation, he was only a hair's breadth away from leveling up. He had calculated everything in advance.

Otherwise, he wouldn't recklessly exchange health.

"You..."

Kaelo's face turned ugly in an instant, feeling played by the opponent.

"You are still the Kaelo I know, unchanged." Jiang Han mocked while attacking, "Excellent!"

He didn't like unnecessary banter in battle, but provocation was crucial. It could infuriate people, causing them to lose their rationality, just like the Water Qilin he faced in the Heavenly Trials.

Of course, if the enemy's mental strength was formidable enough, impervious to verbal disruption, he would remain silent. But Kaelo was not in that category.

"Die for me!"

As expected, Kaelo fell for the trap, his eyes bloodshot, roaring as he charged at Jiang Han recklessly.

"Swoosh..."

Wielding a silver sword, he swung out several sharp sword auras horizontally.

Evil Tread!

Unfortunately, this time, Jiang Han had no intention of mindlessly exchanging health. He leaped suddenly, avoiding the sword aura and kicking Kaelo to the ground.

"Chime!~"

System Prompt: You used [Evil Tread], dealt 13,547 damage to Furious Soldier Kaelo, successfully interrupted the skill, and caused a suppression effect, rendering the opponent unable to move for one second!

With Jiang Han's level increase, the suppression effect of Evil Tread finally played its proper role, controlling Kaelo despite the latter being a silver-grade BOSS with a much higher level.

Death Slash!

Grasp of the Undead!

Frenzied Slaughter!

A perfect combination of control and output once again caused Kaelo's health to plummet.

Afterward, Jiang Han stepped back a distance, casually taking a sip of a health potion to ensure that his health was at a very healthy level.

Getting

 up from the ground, Kaelo gritted his teeth, "Today, you will undoubtedly pay for your actions!"

"Chime!~"

System Prompt: Furious Soldier Kaelo uses skill [Rage], +20% attack, +25% attack speed, lasting one minute!

Rage?

A decent buff skill!

However...

"Skeleton Knight, protect me completely!" Jiang Han raised his arm and ordered.

As Daniel's disciple and the leader of this team, he naturally had the right to give commands.

"Yes!"

Immediately, upon hearing the command, the Skeleton Knight abandoned the fight with the enemies, pushing aside the adventurers surrounding Jiang Han and forming a sturdy protective wall in front of him.

This scene dumbfounded the players.

"Can it be like this?"

"This game is truly destroying my understanding of things!"

...

For the vast majority of players, the concept of assimilating with indigenous people was still unclear. They continued to interpret "Eternal" within the framework of a normal game.

"Since you chose to join this siege, I don't believe you can leave unscathed." Jiang Han's lips curved with a cold arc, "When your buff effect ends, you'll be like a lamb awaiting slaughter."

The 20,000 gold coins he hadn't repaid were playing in Jiang Han's mind. This contract, which was like child's play, had the other party so fixated on it that they came seeking revenge. Faced with such a petty person, he wouldn't show any mercy.

"You..."

Kaelo, repeatedly taunted by Jiang Han, became speechless, his face turning red. Breathing heavily, he was filled with unwillingness and resentment.

In his thoughts, this battle should have made him famous. Jiang Han Shui was supposed to pay for breaking the contract. However, everything turned out to be completely different from what he expected!

"Or, do you think you can break through the Skeleton Knight's defense within a minute of your rage?" Jiang Han said calmly, "If not, your rage is nothing more than impotent fury."
