Pitter-patter!
Rain poured in the lush forest with lightning and thunder in the distance. The sky was exceptionally dark, with visibility greatly reduced.
“Hey, guys! Wait for me!”
Alex ran over and greeted the people in the back, speaking the Galaxy Nova language as he was now wearing the outfit of a Galaxy Nova trialist. Everyone was a skeletal person, so the others could not tell his identity unless a soul marker had been planted on him from the beginning.
Prince Baton had planted one on Alex before, but Alex had dispelled it. He refused to give up on the holy tool of ancient Buddhism and the Yellow Obsidian Crystal, so he naturally chose to fight to the death against the spell formation.
“You’re alone?”
This team comprised eight people in total with a variety of cultivation levels. The one with the highest level was at Heavenly Immortal realm, and Alex saw two or three hundred dark yellow bone patterns on his bones through their battle robes. He was the person in charge here and he was also the one who spoke.
The rest, having slightly weaker power, followed him blindly.
All eight people looked at Alex vigilantly. Clearly, those people were not easy to fool. Even if everyone was a Galaxy Nova member, they still maintained sufficient vigilance. It was possible that there had been many incidents of killing each other to seize the bone patterns.
“Yeah, it’s just me. I’m alone, and I am not strong enough. I’d be dead meat if I were to encounter those extraterrestrial aborigines.” Alex let out a self-deprecating laugh.
And thus, the crowd lowered their guard against him. They certainly saw no one else, not to mention that he did not seem dangerous either.
“Where are you from?” someone asked.
Alex answered, “Purple Cloud Academy.”
The scene instantly became lively…
“So you’re a Purple Cloud Academy student. I heard you guys have gotten quite miserable this time. Almost all the people who came died, and someone even killed the once in a lifetime female genius, Alyssa Huffman.”
“What a pity. I originally wanted to go to the Horizon Clan to become the Huffman family’s live-in son-in-law, but the chance is apparently gone.”
“You? You still want to become the Huffmans’ live-in son-in-law? I believe you can’t even enter the entrance of the Huffmans.”
“But since Alyssa Huffman has been killed, I’m afraid the Horizon Clan will be broken-hearted. I wonder if they will send people over to investigate it and avenge her? Those Huffmans will definitely go crazy and may even go all out to activate the taboo and send in a group of experts outside the laws…”
“A… Naked native moved rapidly and silently. He just disappeared in a flash,” Alex solemnly said with a concentrated look, as if it were true.
Someone said, “Boss, just now, His Highness said that one of those few extraterrestrials seemed to have a stealth ability.”
The leader waved his hand. “Be careful…”
All the eight people stared intently at a corner.
Alex said, “I’ll go try it out first. Those extraterrestrial psychos killed my best friend, so I must kill them with my own hands.” As he spoke, he took out the Xavion Sword.
Just as the few were thinking about how tactful Alex was for willingly becoming the first person to take the risk, he instantly used his killer blow. The long-prepared Requiem Clock rang loudly, shocking the people’s souls.
He fiercely swung the Xavion Sword at the captain.
Poof!
A head rushed up to the sky after it was severed by the sword.
