Just thinking about this made Gu Xu's head ache.

This is getting really complicated!

Of course, it wasn't that he was afraid, but rather that he found it troublesome.

I thought that once I had dealt with things in my own yard, I could close the door and enjoy a few days of peace.

While we're at it, let's also improve the overall strength of our own professionals and prepare to fight against the false god.

But then this happened.

It's like having your own yard built next to a large, open-air garbage transfer station, while that worthless rock in the yard that no one else wants is actually a gold brick that can be exchanged for half a property management company.

Now, not only are there groups of garbage collectors coming by following the smell, but even the property management company that manages the transfer station may be rushing here at breakneck speed.

The main point is that they've been targeted.

"call……"

Thinking of this, Gu Xu raised his hand to rub his temples and let out a long breath.

But soon, he stopped worrying about it.

As the saying goes, when soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it. Thinking about so many unnecessary things is just asking for trouble.

After all, if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up.

Unfortunately, he seems to be the tallest one right now.

What else can we do but tough it out?

For a moment, Gu Xu snapped out of his thoughts and turned his gaze back to Vera, who was bound with red silk like a giant rice dumpling.

At this moment, Vera was bound by the cold, dark silk, making it difficult for her to move or even breathe.

She saw Gu Xu looking at her and knew that her moment of death was about to begin.

Indeed, from the day she became a Star Hunter, she had already anticipated this moment.

But at this moment, as this destiny was about to arrive, her body still couldn't help but start to tremble.

"Oh……"

Gu Xu naturally noticed the woman's fearful expression and immediately chuckled, his expression disdainful and mocking: "Oh, so you know how to be afraid now."

"I thought everyone who came from Xinghai was a fearless hero."

"Looking at him now, he's just a cowardly coward, isn't he?"

Hearing this unreserved sarcasm, Vera's whole body trembled, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She suddenly raised her head, and her eyes, which had been filled with fear, instantly revealed anger.

"Enough with the nonsense. If you want to kill me or torture me, just give me a quick death. I've been around for so many years, what haven't I seen? If you even flinch, I'll admit defeat."

"Tsk tsk."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xu clicked his tongue, his face showing an expression that said, "I knew you would say that."

He even felt a little like laughing inside.

Why do all these people's dying lines sound like they were cut from the same mold? There's no originality at all.

Can't you say something else?

For example, begging me to let you off the hook, saying you'd be willing to be my slave.

Although he certainly wouldn't agree, at least it sounds interesting.

"The way you're saying that makes it sound like I'm some kind of inhumane person."

After saying that, Gu Xu shook his head: "Don't worry, you definitely won't survive, but I have some other things to take care of than killing you right now."

"After all, bringing you guys in has made a huge mess of my yard."

"Handling something?"

Vera was taken aback, not understanding for a moment what he meant.

She subconsciously looked around.

The battlefield had been completely destroyed. The original steel defense line had been turned into a flattened gray land, with twisted metal debris and bottomless ravines everywhere.

The soldiers suffered even greater casualties.

Those figures lying in the ruins had lost all trace of life.

What else needs to be dealt with here besides ruins and corpses?

However, just as she was filled with confusion, she saw the boy in front of her slowly raise his right hand and gently snap his fingers at the desolate battlefield.

"Smack."

A crisp sound suddenly rang out in this vast expanse of sky and earth.

The next moment, all the expressions on Vera's face froze.

She watched as the entire world before her seemed to be rewound.

It is not a restoration of energy, nor a healing spell.

Instead, time itself began to flow backward in a way that she could not understand or even imagine.

The land that had been flattened by the gale began to rise, and countless dust and pebbles gathered from nothingness, recombinating into collapsed buildings.

The twisted steel skeleton self-corrected with a piercing "creak" and returned to its original shape.

The deep ravines cleaved open by the blade's edge are healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It was as if that devastating blow had never happened.

The sound of the wind was flowing backwards, the roar of the explosion was flowing backwards.

Everything is frantically regressing to its former state.

"this……"

The moment Vera saw this scene, the anger that had arisen in her eyes from Gu Xu's humiliation vanished completely.

The person's brain almost completely shut down.

However, what truly made Vera's eyes widen was what happened next.

She saw that the wounds on the soldiers who had fallen in pools of blood, their bodies mutilated and completely devoid of vital signs, were healing rapidly.

The severed limbs were reattached, and the hole through the chest was filled with new flesh and blood.

The blood that flowed on the ground transformed into streaks of red light, flowing back into their bodies.

One.

ten.

One hundred.

Hundreds and thousands of dead soldiers were brought back to life from their cold corpses.

They got up from the ground in a daze, examining their bodies, their faces full of confusion and bewilderment.

"I...I'm dead, aren't I?"

"What happened? I was just cleaved in two with a single blow!"

"Damn it! Where are those damn bastards? Where did they go?"

"It was the general! General Gu saved us!"

After a brief moment of confusion, the entire defensive line erupted in thunderous cheers.

Countless fervent and reverent gazes converged on Gu Xu.

It only lasted a few dozen seconds.

The battlefield, which was once like an apocalyptic hell, has been restored to its original state.

Apart from the corpses of the elves on the ground and their half-dead minions, everything here just now seemed as if nothing had happened.

Vera was left tied up in mid-air, staring blankly at everything.

Her eyes were so wide they almost popped out of their sockets, and her mouth opened involuntarily.

As a hunter who has spent over a hundred years navigating the cosmos, she has witnessed countless incredible abilities.

Manipulating elements, distorting space, and toying with souls.

She had even seen top-tier experts who could briefly pause time.

But compared to what's happening right now, those abilities are like a child's scribbles!
