On my second playthrough, they were full of malice towards me.

Even though I know it's risky.

It was practically a matter of life and death.

After all, the terrifying stench emanating from the stone coffin still lingered in Irene's mind, and this black-haired youth had come out of the stone coffin; even a fool could tell he was no ordinary person.

But Irene had no other options.

This is the only way she might still be able to survive at this moment.

Fortunately, subsequent events proved that her risky move did indeed work.

The fact that the black-haired youth didn't resist was the biggest relief for Irene, while, unsurprisingly, Kaval's gang became increasingly anxious.

"You fucking bitch!!"

Jason's roar, which had risen several decibels, showed that his anger had reached its peak.

But the scarred man dared not make any rash moves and could only roar at the female scavenger in a helpless rage.

"You're finished! You're going against us, Kaleva! Get your filthy hands off the 'Heritage' right now!"

“I’m warning you, if you dare to damage our ‘legacy,’ not only will you die a horrible death, but your family, including your seriously ill mother in the settlement, will also have no chance of survival!”

Liao Ji could feel that when the scarred man mentioned his "seriously ill mother," the female scavenger who was pressed against him visibly trembled.

But after that, the other party probably felt that there was no turning back no matter what, and decided to go all in.

So, after the scarred man's threats, the female scavenger pressed herself even closer to her "legacy," which she considered her lifeline, and kept brandishing the dagger, trying to get the man to let her go.

However, judging from the scarred man's expression, Liao Ji knew that this was impossible. But the man was constrained by his "inheritance" and couldn't do anything to the female scavenger. So, they began a stalemate.

So

Is this the wonderful start to the second playthrough?

Loved it.

After realizing he had transmigrated, the first thing Liao Ji did after emerging from the coffin was to quickly examine his body while observing the situation.

The good news is that the game system is still usable.

The bad news is that the protagonist's data is not inherited in the second playthrough, meaning he is now back to the initial level one.

The good news is that the "wives" I raised last week have indeed been inherited.

The bad news is that their avatars are all grayed out and unselectable in the system.

Liao Ji didn't know why this was happening, as such a situation had never occurred in the game before, but at least he was relieved to see his skill bar.

[Holy Healing], [Dragon's Blood Burn], [Cyclone Pulse], [Annihilation], and finally, [Elf's Sanctuary].

Like many simulation games, in Fall, the player, as the "protagonist," has no innate skills and cannot level up by "killing monsters." The only way to improve one's strength is by nurturing Evil Ones.

In short, the stronger the Evil Ones you raise, the more experience they can give back to you. Also, when an Evil One's rank reaches a certain level, the player can choose one of their abilities as their own skill.

The five abilities listed in the skill bar above were carefully selected by Liao Ji from them during the first playthrough.

While it may not be the strongest ultimate move among them, it is certainly a combination that allows Liao Ji, the "protagonist," to become a super hexagonal warrior capable of handling various situations.

Even though he didn't inherit the strength from the first playthrough, the level of these skills all became the original Lv1. But you should know that there are differences between Lv1 and Lv1.

As his meticulously cultivated top-tier six-star character, and also the highest-level "Calamity-class" Calamity-infected Lv1 skill, he used it to deal with the current small situation.

More than enough.

Chapter 4 Kobolds

First, use "Elf's Protection" to maximize defense. The skill's knockback aura can push away all enemies that are close to you. Lv1 protection has a high damage reduction of 40% and a powerful shield that can directly block any attack coefficient of "D" or below.

Then, follow up with "Dragon Blood Burning" to enhance all of his attributes, and also come with a powerful "lock blood" effect. When he suffers a fatal injury, he will not die immediately. At level 1, he has a full 5 seconds of lock blood time to ensure his absolute safety.

In addition, as long as the guns in the hands of the scarred man and his gang are not C-grade or higher turbid weapons, the subsequent "turbid magnetic pulse" can directly disarm them all, causing them to malfunction, while at the same time feeding energy back to him to sustain his mana.

Finally, without moving, simply raising a finger, the supernatural spell "Annihilation" can be cast without a cast time. Even at level 1, it deals extremely high base damage, which would severely injure or kill any Evil One below the "Danger" level.

Liao Ji could execute this perfectly with his eyes closed in the game, but if it were to become a reality, he might make a mistake or cause an accident due to nervousness or something similar.

But it's okay.

As long as I have a breath left.

The "Holy Healing" spell from the priestess "Shutia" was enough to instantly heal him to full health and revive him at this stage.

Therefore, Liao Ji was not in a hurry.

The reason he had been inactive was that he wanted to glean some information from the conversations of these people and understand the current situation.

but.

Liao Ji is not in a hurry.

But it seems some people are already so anxious they're about to explode.

I don't know if it's just Liao Ji's imagination.

But he felt the female scavenger behind him holding him hostage, her body twisting and turning restlessly, and the frequency of her movements increased as time went by.

The source of her "unease" did not seem to come from the group of scarred men with guns confronting her, nor from what she called "heritage".

Because Liao Ji was closest, he could see out of the corner of his eye that the female scavenger behind him often glanced upwards.

There was a large hole there; the group must have originally been above the secret chamber, but then triggered a mechanism and fell down.

Judging from the increasingly tense and anxious breathing of the female scavenger.

Just like

If we don't leave now, something extremely bad will happen next.

Liao Ji's premonitions are always very accurate.

Smack smack

Abrupt footsteps approached rapidly from afar, quickly drawing near the people inside the secret room, and the source of the footsteps was directly above their heads.

When the sound finally stopped, Liao Ji looked back at the hole in the ceiling.

They discovered that there were also pairs of eyes peering out from the hole, looking down into the secret chamber where everyone was.

In the dim light.

You can see their large noses and mouths that take up almost half of their faces, and their thick, messy hair covering their entire chins. In comparison, their eyes appear small, reflecting a greedy gaze.

They have human bodies and dog heads, and you can see the shadow of a shovel in their rough, dirty hands.

"Kobold!"

This time, even the usually domineering scarred man was terrified, not to mention the group of henchmen behind him, all of whom turned pale.

"Impossible! The kobolds in this area should have been wiped out several times over by now, how could there be kobolds here!"

"I can't believe it," the scarred man asked. But when his panicked gaze inadvertently fell on the spot where the female scavenger had been, his eyes widened as he saw a statue on the ground that had been smashed at some unknown time.

In that instant, Jason finally understood. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the female scavenger with the look of an enemy.

"It's you!"

[Low-level Summon Clay Golem (Kobold)]

[Type: Turbid Item]

[Quality: E+]

【Effect: After a short delay, summons a squad of "Kobold Miners" to join the battle】

[Turbid Deviation: There is a certain probability that the summoned target will be replaced with a "Greedy" Kobold Miner]

While the scarred man only guessed that the broken statue was responsible, Liao Ji recognized it immediately with just a glance.

He was both surprised and shook his head.

To his surprise, the female scavenger behind him could use the items of the Calamity perfectly.

Shaking his head, he didn't know whether to say the other party was lucky or unlucky. Obviously, what the female scavenger had summoned by breaking the clay sculpture was a group of "greedy" kobold miners who had triggered the effect of [Turbidity Deviation].

Compared to ordinary summons, they are stronger, but they are not controlled by the player and will attack indiscriminately.

With the current capabilities of these tomb raiders, especially in this kind of terrain...

Liao Ji watched as the dog-headed men at the hole above, after a preliminary observation, seemed to have realized the weakness of these humans. They swung their pickaxes, their greedy eyes sweeping over them, and were about to jump into the secret chamber.

The scarred man and his gang had long since lost interest in his "legacy" and the female scavenger, and instead turned their guns toward the kobolds above, attempting to resist the monster.

But Liao Ji knew that the kobolds were level 5 monsters, and with the "greed" prefix, they could be fought off by ordinary people with guns in open terrain, but in the dungeon, their annihilation was inevitable.

Da da da!!

A barrage of gunfire erupted, accompanied by shouts from the scarred man and his gang, which quickly turned into screams of agony within seconds.

"Reload! Reload now!"

"Get away from me, you disgusting monsters, get out of here!"

"Watch out above!!"

"Help me!"

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!!"

Flesh and blood flew everywhere under the kobolds' iron pickaxes. The confined space rendered the range advantage of firearms useless, leaving them with nowhere to hide.

The scarred man's group's firepower suppression was only slightly effective at first, but they were quickly and completely defeated as kobolds kept "falling from the sky" into the secret room.

Inside the secret room, it was now a one-sided massacre.

At the stone coffin, Irene had already given up hope.

Her face was ashen.

In Irene's field of vision, she could already see that kobolds had noticed the depths of the secret chamber where she was. These bloodthirsty monsters, wielding bloodstained shovels, were menacingly approaching her.

Think of a way!

What else? What else can...?
