Legends of the Boundless Sword Chapter 5

Nathan believed that he had made the right judgment, but Liam Hu remained stubborn.

The hedgehog-headed boy obviously lacks a sense of crisis and can only see the side that benefits himself.

Liam Hu took advantage of the moonlight to look around, trying to get the bespectacled young man to act with him: "Senior Julian Wu has already said that within a ten-mile radius, the sword skeleton just now is the strongest monster, and the rest are far inferior to it!"

"As long as we remember the experience passed down by our predecessors, act carefully, and rush back to the shelter before dawn, at least we won't have any problems protecting ourselves!"

After hearing the young man's speech, Nathan knew that he would not be able to convince the other party in such a short time.

If everyone can justify themselves based on different behavioral logics, then people will inevitably not be able to understand each other.

Nathan sighed: "It seems that we can only go our separate ways!"

Being in this world full of monsters and staying outside, he didn't feel safe at all.

However, looking at the sky, it seemed that there was still some time before dawn, so Nathan felt a little relieved.

He pointed to the severed hand on the ground that was tightly holding the long sword, and said to Liam Hu: "We new players don't get any benefits like novice equipment and life-saving items. If we want to live well, we have to make full use of all the available resources in the surrounding environment."

"Senior Julian Wu didn't take the spoils. I guess he was moved by compassion and wanted to help us."

"Next, I plan to stay in the little brick house until the mission is over."

"Since you plan to take advantage of the night to explore the hidden mission, the risk is definitely greater."

"Use this sword to defend yourself first!"

The hedgehog-headed boy didn't say anything polite. He walked over quickly. He was not afraid of the horrible severed hand. He just pinched the severed hand and picked up the sword.

Such reckless behavior made Nathan chew up the words "try to avoid direct contact and be careful of infection with the virus" and swallow them into his stomach.

What else can he say?

All I can add is "be careful not to scratch yourself".

"Yeah! Brother, don't worry!"

"I remember everything that the senior said very clearly - if you are scratched by the 'sword limbs' of the sword skeleton, you will be infected and transformed into a new sword skeleton! I will never take this important information that is related to life and death lightly!"

Having said that, Liam Hu threw the strange trophy on the ground, fetched a stone in the dark, and smashed it hard at the severed hand that was tightly holding the sword.

As he smashed it, he said, "No wonder it's called the 'sword limb'. This severed hand and the sword are actually grown together! They are connected by blood vessels! It needs to be processed a little bit so that it can be used properly!"

Puff! Puff! Puff! ...

After hitting it more than ten times, the hedgehog-haired boy finally separated the severed hand from the sword. He then used the blade to cut off a piece from the corner of his sweatshirt and wrapped it around the hilt.

The length of the sword was about the same as the boy's arm span, and it was blue-white all over, shining brightly in the moonlight.

Swish! Swish!

After swinging it twice in the air and chopping off a piece of firewood piled next to the thatched hut, Liam Hu was delighted: "Great! With it, my attack power can be increased by at least three levels!"

Although this sword cannot be said to be able to cut through iron like mud, it is really sharp!

He didn't even chop the solid wood soaked in fog along the grain, but was able to cut it in half with one sword.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is like blowing a hair off.

In a dangerous foreign world, it is so reassuring to be able to have such a self-defense weapon!

Nathan, who was confused, pushed his glasses up out of habit and helped analyze the situation briefly: "Since our identities are 'Players of the Lord's Playground', the so-called hidden tasks are nothing more than [Explore the mysteries of the world], [Contact supernatural powers], [Kill powerful enemies], [Obtain secret treasures], and [Contact important people in the current world]."

"When you act, you must keep your eyes and ears open and stay alert at all times."

"After all, if you're unlucky, you might encounter more than one sword skeleton. There are too many variables!"

"Remember, life has infinite possibilities!"

"Well... I'm going back to my hiding spot. Good luck!"

After saying this and bidding farewell to Liam Hu, Nathan walked quickly and quietly all the way until he returned to the blue brick house. He closed the door and then heaved a sigh of relief.

The young man with glasses who was slumped on the bed, his tense nerves had just relaxed when he broke out in a hot sweat. He talked to himself in a voice almost as soft as a mosquito's hum, trying to relieve the tension in his heart in this way.

"Huh... The world of The Last Sword Master, just by listening to the name, feels like there are still many unknown factors waiting for me to explore."

"If this were a game, I would definitely pursue full achievement and try to turn all unknowns into knowns."

"But this is the real world, exactly like Earth, except for the supernatural powers! Here, I will get hurt or even die!"

"It is said that curiosity kills the cat, and the same is true for people! Only by walking slowly can we walk more steadily and further on the extraordinary road. It is okay to take risks, but at least we must master the most basic self-protection power! My decision is the right one!"

Nathan felt that his brain was unprecedentedly active. In the silent night, he was completely unable to control his brain.

The young man couldn't help but worry about Liam Hu who was traveling alone at night. He hoped that he could return safely, but he also hoped that he would return empty-handed.

"Nathan! When did you become such a dirty villain?"

"Without any conflict of interest, such thoughts and ideas are simply spiritual poison! We must never have them again!"

After cursing himself twice, the image of the boy with the broken arm unconsciously appeared in the mind of the young man with glasses.

Incomplete, but powerful!

"A pioneer who experienced the annihilation of his entire team, Julian Wu who lost all his comrades..."

"Looking at his behavior, he may have even been backstabbed by his companions?"

"That's right! Otherwise, there is no way to explain why Julian Wu would resist joining a team and choose to be a lone wolf!"

"Humans are social animals after all. Countless years of evolution have engraved teamwork into the deepest part of human genes."

"It's not that he doesn't have a need for security, but that only acting alone can give him a sense of security!"

"From this perspective, Julian Wu is a good person - he doesn't want to be hurt, and he won't take the initiative to harm newcomers."

Boom! Boom!

Nathan's thoughts, which kept appearing and disappearing like light and shadow, were interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

"Brother, it's me! I'm back!"

Nathan pushed the bolt almost without thinking, opened the door, and pulled the hedgehog-headed boy into the house.

It was not until he locked the door again that he noticed, with the help of the dim candlelight, that Liam Hu's face was ashen, his lips were pale, and he did not seem to be in good condition.

Nathan felt a little regretful: "Could it be that you were injured by the sword skeleton and infected with the virus?"

Is this reckless contemporary player going to turn into that kind of monster?

Liam Hu, who originally had a very ugly expression, grinned when he heard this and said, "I am a man who is going to be the strongest extraordinary person on earth, how could I fall in a place like this?"

"Brother, I have completed two hidden tasks! Looking at the rewards, I think the Lord God is pretty good!"
