Chapter 45 Releases the Record of Martial Arts Heroes
Chapter 45 Releases the Record of Martial Arts Heroes
The progenitor giant cat was fast and bullied the weak. When Colonel Fire Duck attacked, it was so frightened that it lay on the ground and dared not move. But when the Blood Skull Detective Dog came, it was as if it had taken a stimulant. It ran over and easily subdued the Blood Skull Detective Dog with one or two swipes and a bite on the back of its neck.
Although the Bloodskull Scout is a three-star magical beast, it can't really cause any trouble in front of the Primordial Giant Cat, which weighs three tons and is larger than an ordinary rhinoceros.
Soon, the Bloodskull scout dog was toyed with and killed by the progenitor giant cat, Run Fast.
However, it dropped nothing and did not trigger any system notifications.
The ancestral giant cat meowed softly, seemingly still not satisfied, and then lay down for a nap by the half-section of the city wall.
In other player territories, there are not many who actively provoke Bloodskull Scouts.
In the Bitter Realm, three or four hundred players didn't dare to attack the Bloodskull Scout, letting it leisurely cross the territory and disappear into the Chaotic Star Sea.
"You'd gain nothing from shooting this thing; only an idiot would!"
"Yes, if you provoke it and get bitten, it's not worth it!"
"We were so wise..."
Some adventurer players were chatting leisurely. Lord Li Kuangji in the crowd nodded in agreement, but he soon received a system notification: "Ding, Bloodskull scout dogs have reported reconnaissance information. Your territory has been discovered by Bloodskull Fortress. The Bloodskull Fortress's adjudication team will arrive in your territory in one hour. Please prepare for negotiations."
"Huh?" Li Kuangji was stunned.
In other players' territories, an increasing number of lords are receiving similar system notifications, which is making them uneasy.
An hour later, in the Bitterlands, the Judgment Brigade of Bloodskull Fortress arrived on time, a total of thirteen kobolds landing.
These kobolds were clad in blood-red leather armor, each about three meters tall, with long, thin necks, half-closed eyes, and slightly slender builds. They wielded huge scythe-like weapons, and when they walked together, they were quite imposing.
Players in the Bitter Realm retreated, carefully avoiding the group.
However, the thirteen kobolds didn't go far. They quickly stopped in front of the players, and the leader shouted, "Lord of this place, come forward and speak! Our superiors suspect that Colonel Blood Duck's death is related to you. Please don't make futile struggles; just accept your punishment!"
"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
Li Kuangji squeezed out of the crowd, his face full of obsequious smiles, and said, "Officers, you've wronged us! Colonel Blood Duck's death had absolutely nothing to do with us. He died in the battle of Yufeng; we never even saw him!"
"Yes, Colonel Blood Duck hasn't been here!"
"Really, don't wrongly accuse innocent people!"
"We are all law-abiding citizens..."
A group of adventurer players joined in the shouting, and no one went to fight the Fallen Fire Duck anymore.
The lead kobold remained expressionless and continued, "If you want us to leave, you have two choices. First, hand over one thousand coins! Second, hand over thirty percent of the territory's star coins! You have two minutes to make your decision!"
"What? You want money!"
"They're here to extort money!"
"What should we do? Should we pay?"
"President, don't provoke them. I think we should just pay them to keep things peaceful..."
At everyone's suggestion, Li Kuang reluctantly opened his storage space, took out 240 yuan, and said in a deep voice to the dog-headed man, "I only have 800 yuan. Thirty percent is 240 yuan. Take it, and don't bother coming back!"
"You poor wretch!"
The kobold leader looked at them with disdain. After taking the money, he didn't linger and led the team back immediately, quickly disappearing into the chaotic starry sea.
Suddenly someone shouted, "What? Another Bloodskull scout dog has appeared! Should we shoot it or not?!"
Li Kuang said viciously, "Beat them! Beat them to death!"
Similar situations have been unfolding in other beginner villages as well.
Da Yu, Zhao Xuanlong gritted his teeth and paid 666 yuan.
In Baofeng Village, Che Taizai paid 1,000 yuan!
In the Fire Dragon Kingdom, Gu Dali paid more than three hundred yuan.
Even Qian Xiaohua, the master of Yufeng, reluctantly paid 200 yuan when faced with the sudden arrival of the Blood Skull Fortress Judgment Team.
The chat panel quickly erupted with a barrage of curses.
"Damn it, Lord Yufeng, why did you have to kill Colonel Fire Duck? Now I'm being extorted for 30 yuan!"
"I was blackmailed for a thousand dollars!"
"I never expected that releasing the bloodcranial detection dog would have this result!"
"Another Bloodskull scout dog has appeared in my territory. What should I do? If I let it go, will the Judgment Team come knocking on my door to extort money a second time?"
"I just tried it, and I've already received a system notification. The extortion squad is coming to get me in an hour!"
"If we don't shoot the detection dog, we'll be extorted. Then we'll shoot it!"
"But what if I can't beat them?"
"If you can't beat them, just admit defeat and pay up!"
"Isn't this going to leave me penniless from being blackmailed?"
"That damned Lord Yufeng, he got his own pleasure but caused so much harm to others!"
Qian Xiaohua saw someone cursing her in the chat panel and stomped her feet in anger. She posted that it wasn't her side that killed Colonel Huoya, but no one believed her.
"Damn it, who on earth made me take the blame for this?!"
As Qian Xiaohua was thinking this, she suddenly saw a Bloodskull scout dog wandering over, so she didn't care about anything else and quickly controlled the tower to kill it.
In Xuanzhou, Wang Jue is still in seclusion.
He was very serious, his mind was full of inspiration, and he wrote with divine help.
Within its territory, the progenitor saber-toothed cat had no interest in the Fallen Fire Ducks or Blood Prison deserters, focusing solely on hunting Bloodskull scout dogs, sparing none of them.
Time passed, and at this moment, Wang Jue, who had been engrossed in writing for more than eight hours, finally completed his first work, "The Outlaws".
Of course, this is a serialized work, and the current plot only goes up to the point where Mad Dog King learns to slide tackle.
While Wang Jue primarily wrote the story of Mad Dog King using the plot of Infinite Guidance as the main storyline, as a writer who strives for perfection, he added many seemingly insignificant details to make Mad Dog King's character more three-dimensional. These included details such as what Er Gou Mountain was like, how Mad Dog King became an outlaw and how he gradually rose to become the leader, as well as descriptions of the environment and emotions, and so on.
In short, the book has now reached over 20,000 words, and the plot is progressing quite quickly.
"Mad Dog King, Invincible Eight Directions, and Dragon Subduer—these three have completely different personalities. Mad Dog King is only occasionally chivalrous. He's ambitious, wants to improve himself, has made mistakes, stolen secret manuals, and is ruthless when robbing after becoming a bandit. But when his underlings are killed, he'll bury them in a coffin. In short, he's a reckless brute who's seven parts reckless..."
"In terms of martial arts talent, he's definitely no match for Bafang Bubai, and probably even less so than Wang Jianglong. But he's lived the most carefree life. There are still two major mysteries in his storyline: first, is his current research on the Great Sun Scripture just a hobby, or has he actually grasped some of the martial arts secrets? Second, will Mad Dog King encounter the nameless swordsman who forced him to jump off a cliff again? If they fight, what will happen...? I'll wait for the system to write these things down later, and then I'll continue the series!"
With this in mind, Wang Juen submitted his work for review to the system.
Very quickly, in about ten seconds, the system responded: "Ding, approved. The work 【Heroes of the Martial World: Outlaws】has been successfully created. The current status of the work is serialization. It has been automatically formatted and three serialized copies have been generated and are now displayed on the Martial World bookshelf!"
"Ding! Your work, 'Heroes of the Martial World: Outlaws,' is excellent. While it's displayed on your bookshelf, your territory's culture attribute will increase by 1!"
Upon hearing the system notification, Wang Jue couldn't help but laugh out loud with pride.
"Adding a touch of culture is fun, really fun! I'm going to work on finishing the novels about Bafang Bubai and Wang Jianglong in a bit!"
Wang Jue felt no fatigue and wanted to continue writing, but after thinking about it, he decided to first inspect the territory and see if he needed to distribute Life Berries to Bafang Bubai and the others.
