The top warrior?

Kei Higashino suddenly realized.

Oh~

No wonder it looked so familiar, it turned out to be the 050 Black Heart Factory, also known as the Beginning of Birth.

Gagula is the only normal person in the whole play.

But think carefully about the BOSS of this world.

It seems that this world is indeed new enough for newcomers.

Although one more item has been added to the reward for the task.

But can he really complete this task?

Kei Higashino couldn't help but suspect that the system was trying to mess with him in a roundabout way because it saw that he had been stuck with the bug for a long time.

Despite having a lot of complaints about the system.

But as long as there is a chance to become stronger, Kei Higashino still calmly accepts the system's arrangement.

Finish today's task and see if you can find a living person.

Ever since he was sold to Beria as his subordinate and was reformed for more than a year, he could say that he had not eaten for a long time.

Now, because I didn't transform during the mission, I was naturally very hungry with an empty stomach.

I don’t know if it’s the so-called annual hiking season.

He didn't see a single living person along the way, but he saw quite a few corpses in tattered clothes and with strange shapes.

The closer you get to Warrior's Peak, the stronger the howling wind becomes.

As Kei Higashino endured hunger and arrived at the foot of the mountain, he saw a figure swaying in the wind and snow in front of him. It seemed that the figure could not hold on and fell to the ground with a stumble.

An idea suddenly flashed through his mind. He walked quickly to the figure in the wind and snow and turned the ragged man lying on the ground over.

When he saw the man's face clearly, Kei Higashino couldn't help but look disappointed, because the fallen man was an alien with a bug head.

But when he saw the cloth bag tightly held in his hand, he could vaguely see some bulges in the shape of bottles and jars.

Higashino Kei still suppressed his nausea and patted the bug-headed alien's slightly cracked face:

"Hey, are you dead?"

Click~click~

The soles of my feet stepped on the snow, and two unique squeezing sounds slowly approached.

Along with the footsteps came a gentle voice.

"Kushu people?"

As if confirming the identity of the corpse, the visitor explained:

"Your companion has been hypothermic for a long time and can no longer survive. You'd better move and don't stay where you are, otherwise only death will await you."

Kei Higashino looked up and saw a ragged man in gray rags looking at the corpse on the ground with pity.

"Kai, why bother talking to him so much? It's just a waste of energy."

Another man wearing a red and black striped breastplate and a big wavy hair said in a hoarse voice:

"If you challenge the top warrior, you should be prepared to sacrifice your life."

Kai's eyes lit up: "Gagula."

"Oh, you misunderstood. I just want to see if he is dead or not. If he is dead, his things will belong to me."

Kei Higashino reached out and snatched the cloth bag that the corpse was holding tightly in his hand, fumbled inside, and took out a can of unknown brand.

Pull open the ring and pour the contents of the can into your mouth.

But the temperature is too low.

As soon as the food in the can was exposed to the air, it quickly solidified into a smoothie.

My stomach is empty and I am extremely hungry.

Kei Higashino didn't care about hygiene at the moment and directly put the food in the can into his mouth.

The food was mixed with smoothie and made a crunching sound as Kei Higashino chewed it.

Perhaps it was because of the different races, but when Kei Higashino ate the food prepared by the Kushu people, he tasted a mixture of sweet, spicy, bitter and astringent, with a bit of a stinky smell like fermented bean curd.

The food tasted a bit weird though.

But for Higashino Keisuke, who hadn't eaten for a long time, it made him feel alive.

Kai listened to what Kei Higashino said, standing there in a daze, speechless.

It seems that his mercy was in vain.

Seeing that Kei Higashino was eating with gusto, Kai couldn't help licking his lips and staring at the can in Kei Higashino's hand.

“Is that canned food delicious?”

There were only a few cans left in the bag.

Higashino Kei couldn't help but glance at Kai warily after hearing what he said. He tied the bag around his waist and responded as he walked towards the Warrior's Summit.

"It tastes terrible."

Gargula was not surprised by this situation because he did the same thing, although he also yearned for justice.

But he knew very well that if he wanted to survive on a planet with a harsh environment like 050, temporary kindness would be of no use at all.

If it tastes bad, why don't you throw it away?

Kai complained in his heart, but when he saw that Higashino Kei's goal was also to reach the top of the warrior, he couldn't help but follow closely, and asked curiously:

"What's your name? Are you coming to Warrior's Peak to become a Giant of Light?"

"Dongye,"

Kei Higashino did not want to expose the existence of the system, so when faced with Kai's last question, he did not answer but remained silent.

But obviously his silence, in the eyes of Kai and Gagra, was equivalent to a disguised admission of this.

……

Time flows slowly.

The closer we got to the top of the mountain, the more violent the storm became.

Kai, who was originally chattering leisurely at the foot of the mountain, was soon forced into silence by the harsh environment.

And Gagra originally came here for the top of warriors, so he remained silent throughout the journey, trying to save his energy as much as possible.

But the steady pace and leisurely breathing rhythm that Kei Higashino maintained from beginning to end still caused a ripple and strangeness in his calm gaze.

Gagra remembered that in his past memories, when he and Kai challenged the top warrior, this person was clearly not there.

That’s right, he, Jagger, was reborn. Because of an accident, he was reborn on the day to challenge the top of the warriors.

Chapter 16: I Don’t Want the Orb Holy Sword

After going through so many hardships, Gagula believes that he is no longer the person who was obsessed with proving himself.

Although he has given up the idea of ​​becoming a warrior of light.

But when he thought of his female disciple Yu Yan who had died many years ago, he still came here.

This time he wasn't there to save Ganon, but only for the foolish apprentice who foolishly wanted to protect the mentally retarded queen.

...

The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the more difficult it becomes to climb.

Apart from the harsh factor of cold.

Because the wind and snow become stronger the higher you go, the protruding rock walls become slippery and it is easy to fall and be smashed into a pulp if you are not careful.

A D-level mission is indeed a D-level mission.

Compared with daily exercise tasks, it is almost a world of difference.

The wind was howling, and the snow was blowing on Kei Higashino's face, causing his cheeks to twitch in pain as if they were being cut by a knife.

Even though Kei Higashino had made sufficient mental preparations, the steepness of the cliffs still forced him to stop and catch his breath every ten meters or so as he approached the top of the mountain.

Near the top of the mountain.

Looking at the cliff that was just around the corner, Kei Higashino knew that as long as he persisted a little longer, he would be able to climb up and find freedom.

However, his almost exhausted body and the constant feeling of sleepiness made him unable to control the thought of giving up.

Otherwise, just have a good sleep.

Let’s talk about anything tomorrow.

As soon as this thought emerged in Kei Higashino's mind, he was filled with panic when he was captured by the Dada people and the unwillingness to accept death when he almost died at the hands of the Bat people.

He felt as if he had been injected with chicken blood. A surge of strength emerged from his body. He grabbed the protruding rocks on the cliff and finally climbed up.

Even though he was too tired to move, he couldn't help but laugh.
