I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

"Zhang Zehu, right? I know you have a grudge against Luo Feng, but why did your Tiger Fang Squad shoot me in the 0201 County?!" Luo Yuan asked sharply.

"This, this..." Zhang Zehu stammered, unable to speak.

"Your name is Luo Yuan, right? A newcomer with the strength of a War General, and so young at that, we just think you're a bigger threat." One of the three, a one-eyed middle-aged man, spoke up. As a War General-level martial artist, he felt that his strength was about the same as Luo Yuan's, so he wasn't too afraid of Luo Yuan.

"Heh, very good. Your Tiger Fang Squad should watch out in the wilderness from now on, or you might end up as nothing but bones." Luo Yuan sneered.

The members of the Fire Hammer Squad also glanced at the Tiger Fang Squad members with schadenfreude. Having offended Luo Yuan, they were not far from death.

The supply base, Villa A9, has temporarily become the resting place for the Firehammer Squad.

“Everyone has had a good haul this time. Let’s process the monster materials we’ve obtained from this hunt first,” Gao Feng said.

"You guys handle it, I trust you. I want to take a shower and get some rest." Luo Yuan poured the monster materials out of his backpack, piling them up into a small mountain on the table. This scene made everyone's eyes light up, because Luo Yuan's collected materials were mostly from Beast General-level monsters. He didn't care about Beast Soldier-level monsters, and they took up too much space.

After greeting the others, Luo Yuan took a good shower to wash away the bloodstains from the monsters and then sent his combat suit to a specialized place for cleaning and repair.

Upon entering the bedroom, Luo Yuan sat cross-legged and, with a thought, opened his attribute panel.

PS: The beginning is a bit slow, but it will get exciting later on. Dear readers, please give me a reward, add it to your favorites, and vote for me with monthly tickets. Luo Yuan thanks you in advance!

Chapter 33 Return Trip and Rest

Luo Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed, and with a thought, his attribute panel appeared before his eyes.

Name: Luo Yuan

Strength: Apprentice level (Advanced Warrior)

Strength: 55000kg

Speed: 303 m/s

Defense: 55000 kg

Spiritual weight: 35000 kg

Evasion Technique: Subtle Level

Technique: Five Hearts Facing Heaven Method, Guiding Technique 'Ninefold Primordial Origin' (First Level)

Skills: Movement technique 'Flowing Light' (Level 1), Sword technique 'Thunder Blade' (Level 1)

Looking at his current attributes, Luo Yuan smiled. During his trip to the wilderness, he had increased his strength a lot by collecting attribute drops, and he was not too far from the God of War level. However, he was lagging behind in terms of mental power. Relying solely on collecting mental attributes dropped by Luo Feng and some low-level phantom foxes was too slow. He decided to rest and then go to the wilderness to look for high-level monsters with mental attributes.

"Luo Yuan, we're back! Come downstairs and share the money!" Gao Feng's cheerful voice rang out.

Luo Yuan composed himself and went downstairs. Seeing the beaming faces of the Fire Hammer Squad, he knew they had sold the monster materials for a good price.

"Luo Yuan, we've already divided the profits. You contributed the most to slaying the Beast General-level monster, so you'll get the most, which is equivalent to one billion Chinese Yuan. Luo Feng is next, he got six hundred million. I'll transfer the money to your account now." Gao Feng said with a smile, operating the computer to transfer the money, while Luo Feng beside him was also beaming with joy.

"Okay, thank you!" Luo Yuan replied with a smile. He was also shocked when he heard about the billion. It seems that martial artists can make money very quickly. If he were an ordinary person, this billion would be enough for him to live on for several lifetimes.

Next, Luo Yuan treated everyone to a big meal at the best hotel in Jiangnan Base City, along with the Fire Hammer team.

………………

Yangzhou City, Mingyue Residential Area.

It was late at night when a Volkswagen Touareg SUV, a special vehicle used by the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, entered the residential area without being stopped.

"drop!"

The Touareg was parked directly in front of the Extreme Club, where the families of Chen Gu, Zhang Ke, and Luo Feng, as well as the club's director Wu Tong and others, had already gathered.

As Luo Yuan and his three companions got out of the car, Chen Gu, Zhang Ke, and Luo Feng's families came to greet them. Seeing the heartwarming scene of them embracing each other, Luo Yuan smiled with blessing. He felt a little envious, but also a little bitter. He had returned from the war without any relatives to welcome him.

"Our four heroes have returned safely. It's getting late, so everyone should get some rest," said Master Wu Tong with a smile. Immediately, everyone parted with smiles, and Luo Feng and his family went home as well.

………………

Back at his villa, Luo Yuan changed into his training clothes and went to the media room. He browsed the martial arts forum and found it deserted, probably because everyone was cultivating and didn't have time to chat. So he searched for mental monsters in the monster information section and only found three types: a fox (the phantom fox he had bought before belonged to this type), a fish, and a snake.

Fish and snakes with mental attacks are rare, especially fish, which are mainly concentrated in the deep sea. That place is too far away and extremely dangerous. You can forget about it if you don't have the strength of a war god. Luo Yuan focused his attention on foxes. According to the data, the more tails a fox has, the stronger its mental attack is, and the greater its growth potential is.

Luo Yuan directly posted a task in the task section of the martial arts forum: "Please provide information on Beast General level or above Illusionary Foxes, reward of ten million!"

He then opened the online store to see if there was anything suitable for him. Out of boredom, he compared the prices of the same items on the online stores of Extreme Home and HR Alliance and found that, in terms of unit price alone, the equipment bought in HR Alliance was several times more expensive than that on Extreme Home.

However, the Limit House has contribution point level requirements. The more expensive the item, the higher the level requirement. Contribution points are much more valuable than Huaxia coins. Without contribution points, you can only donate a large amount of Huaxia coins to obtain contribution levels, provided that you are a martial artist of the Limit Martial Arts Hall.

Luo Yuan marveled at the exorbitant prices of items in the HR Alliance online mall, which was astonishing. This also showed how powerful their money-making ability was. No wonder Li Yao and his wife dared to offer a reward of 1 billion yuan for the murderer who killed their son.

This also shows how valuable the 2 million reimbursement limit that Zhuge Tao gave Luo Yuan was. It didn't have any contribution point level requirements, and the things he bought were half price after the lowest price at the Limitless Home. It seems that the managers of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy get a discount when buying things at the Limitless Home. Luo Yuan was essentially using Zhuge Tao's level and authority to buy things.

After browsing through the online shopping mall, Luo Yuan felt that his 1 billion Chinese Yuan wasn't so appealing anymore, because he couldn't buy anything good with that amount of money. Although martial artists could earn money quickly, they could also spend it just as quickly.

He decided that if he hunted any high-level monsters in the future, he would sell them to the Limit Martial Arts School, as that would be more cost-effective.

Luo Yuan looked back at his brand-new combat uniform and Blood Shadow Battle Blade, which he had cleaned. Fei Dao smiled. His equipment was actually quite valuable; no wonder the people at the HR Alliance Mall had their eyes light up when they saw it.

In the end, Luo Yuan bought a high-tech supercar from the mall as his daily mode of transportation. As a warrior-level martial artist, he couldn't take the bus every time he went out, or he would be laughed at by others.

Next, the Fire Hammer Squad entered a vacation period, and Luo Yuan went to the Extreme Club to start his daily routine of collecting attributes. However, his focus was still on cultivating the "Ninefold Thunder Blade" as a senior martial artist, as he felt that cultivating on his own was too inefficient.

After collecting attributes each day, Luo Yuan would sit on the first floor of the Limitless Hall, drink tea, and eat something. He got to know quite a few martial artists, most of whom were beautiful female martial artists who tried to chat him up. Although Luo Yuan had a one-night stand with a woman named Wang Qian, he wouldn't easily fall for a woman. Moreover, powerful and beautiful female martial artists would be like merchandise on a shelf, available for anyone to choose from after entering the universe. His primary goal was to become stronger.

So far, in Luo Yuan's heart, Xu Qian, who helped him when he was weak, has evoked some special feelings in him, but gratitude is the majority.

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

October 7th, 2056, Saturday, was the day the seven members of the Firehammer Squad had arranged to meet at the HR Alliance Mall.

morning.

A coupe with graceful curves and an air of elegance slowly drove into the HR Alliance Mall Plaza and stopped directly at the entrance of the HR Skyscraper. Luo Yuan and his companions, dressed in simple casual clothes, got out of the car and entered the lobby on the first floor with the welcome of the doorman.

P.S.: Dear readers, please give me a reward, vote for me, and add this to your favorites. Thank you so much!

Chapter 34 Solo Journey

The seven members of the Fire Hammer Squad entered the first floor of the HR Alliance Mall. As soon as Luo Feng entered, he was attracted by Xu Xin, and the others just smiled.

Inside a private room in a tea house on the third floor of the HR Alliance Mall.

Gao Feng and the others were chatting and joking around, while Luo Yuan was browsing information in a martial arts forum on his phone with a light screen. After a while, Luo Feng returned, but he didn't look too good.

"Luo Feng," Chen Gu said with a smile, "Xu Xin talked to you for so long before, and in my opinion, that girl is a little interested in you too. It shouldn't be difficult for you to win her over! And later, Xu Xin's brother also talked to you for so long, could it be because he's interested in you as his 'brother-in-law'?"

Luo Feng chuckled, a determined look flashing in his eyes.

"I think he was looked down upon," Luo Yuan said with a teasing smile, glancing at Luo Feng.

"Senior Brother Luo Yuan, how did you know?" Luo Feng looked at Luo Yuan.

"Take a look at this." Luo Yuan opened a post on his phone about Xu Xin, and everyone gathered around to look.

"Many people in the martial arts circle have praised the female manager of the bar on the first floor of the underground alliance. She's quite attractive on Saturdays and Sundays, and every lecherous man wants to have his way with her. However, they've all found out that Xu Xin has a powerful background, so they haven't dared to make a move," Luo Yuan said with a smile.

"This female manager is actually the eldest daughter of the Xu family, one of the twelve major families in China that HR Alliance represents. Tsk tsk tsk, she's not someone to mess with." Gao Feng took a sip of tea, trying to hide the embarrassment in his eyes.

"But with Luo Feng's potential, the Xu family might even have to pay him to do it in the future. So, Luo Feng, go for it! We brothers support you." Luo Yuan patted Luo Feng on the shoulder.

Gao Feng, Chen Gu, Wei Tie, Wei Qing, Zhang Ke, and others all laughed.

In their eyes, Luo Feng was a mentalist, and his strength would be even more terrifying in the future.

"We've already taken the Grade A gene serum. From now on, the Firehammer Squad will all be at the Warrior level. Come on, let's celebrate! Let's drink tea instead of wine!" Gao Feng raised his glass and laughed.

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

"I plan to enter County Town 0231 in the wilderness area alone to hone my swordsmanship and movement skills," Luo Feng said.

"What, all alone?" Gao Feng, Chen Gu, and the others all changed their expressions.

"Yes." Luo Feng nodded with a smile.

"It's because you were stimulated today, which ignited your ambition to become stronger," Luo Yuan said slowly.

"Yes, Senior Brother Luo Yuan understands me best." Luo Feng toasted Luo Yuan with a smile.

“Alright, I’m also planning to go to the wilderness area to find a kind of monster. I need something from them,” Luo Yuan said.

The path to becoming a strong person is one of arduous training, step by step, to reach the pinnacle!

……

Jiangnan Base City, Northern Military Region.

When the train stopped at this military region station, Luo Yuan, Luo Feng, and a group of martial artists got off the train one after another.

The two walked towards the townhouses at the supply base. On the way, they saw members of the Tiger Fang Squad. Luo Yuan gave them a cold glance, which scared Zhang Zehu so much that he hid behind the Tiger Fang captain.

"Who is this guy? Why are you so afraid of him?" Captain Tiger Fang frowned and gave Zhang Zehu a disdainful look.

"That man is called Luo Yuan. He's very strong, probably at the level of a mid-level warrior. I saw him kill a beast general-level tiger cat with a single strike in the wilderness. We originally wanted to snipe him, but he blocked our way," Zhang Zehu explained.

"Intermediate-level Warrior? So young. We haven't heard much about him in the Warrior circle. He seems to be keeping a low profile. He's a formidable opponent. Since we've offended him, let's put him on our Tiger Fang team's priority hunting list." The Tiger Fang team said, narrowing their eyes, a mad glint in their eyes. They loved hunting geniuses in the wilderness.

……

"Luo Feng, be careful of the Tiger Fang Squad. They're like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, ready to bite you at any moment," Luo Yuan said to Luo Feng as they walked.

"I know, if we encounter them in the wilderness, we'll wipe them out!" Luo Feng said with murderous intent.

Luo Yuan smiled and nodded.

The next day, Luo Yuan and Luo Feng parted ways upon arriving in County 0231. Luo Yuan was going to find a high-level Illusion Fox to collect spirit attributes, and his destination was still quite far from County 0231.

The sky was overcast, and a strong wind was howling.

A figure moved swiftly like a butterfly flitting among flowers, leaving several blurry afterimages. Luo Yuan ran quickly among the dilapidated buildings, unleashing his full speed. His mental energy was attached to his alloy combat boots, allowing him to leap more than ten meters high. The beast-soldier level monsters that blocked his way were all cut into pieces by him.

"Bang~"

Luo Yuan suddenly stopped on the rooftop of a dilapidated ten-story building. He raised his left arm, and a light screen was projected onto the communication and navigation electronic device fixed to his left arm. A satellite map appeared on the screen, with a red dot and a green dot flashing on it. The green dot was his current location, and the red dot was his destination.

He received a message yesterday about the bounty he posted on the martial arts forum, saying that someone had seen a Beast General-level Phantom Fox in the area marked with a red dot, which is why he decided to come and check it out today. According to satellite navigation, the Phantom Foxes are concentrated in a hundred-story skyscraper, and it seems to be a group of them. This made Luo Yuan cautious and vigilant, as anything that can occupy a hundred-story building must be at least a mid-level Beast General-level monster.
