At the same time, Zhou Huai shifted his consciousness to Ouyezi, who was still resting in the high-end apartment.

Yasuo would reach Rank 10 soon.

His main body's Rank would also reach Rank 10 accordingly.

By then, he would be able to create a third Clone.

But currently, Ouyezi had not yet forged an Epic-Rank equipment.

He must raise his Forging Master's Rank.

There was still a huge difference in the Rank-up speed between lifestyle professions and combat or support professions.

Leveling up was too slow.

For example, yesterday, Ouyezi forged more than a dozen pieces of equipment in a row.

Their quality was not low.

But his Rank had only just reached Rank 3.

It was simply incomparable to combat professions.

However, the benefits of Rank-up were also obvious.

In addition to attribute improvements in all aspects, it would also increase forging proficiency.

Similarly, he would also comprehend various new skills.

Zhou Huai controlled Ouyezi and contacted his assistant, Lin Wei.

In less than ten minutes.

Lin Wei's car had already appeared downstairs at the apartment building.

Ouyezi got into the car.

Lin Wei politely asked, "Great Master Ouyezi, how did you rest last night?"

Zhou Huai did not control Ouyezi at this moment, wanting to see how the AI in this Clone would respond.

Would he speak in a refined manner like Yasuo?

As a result, Ouyezi only uttered two words in a deep voice.

"Not bad."

Then, he closed his eyes to rest, saying nothing more.

Silence once again filled the car.

Lin Wei seemed a bit unwilling and tried to find a few more topics.

"Great Master, the weather is nice today..."

"The Guild has a new batch of rare Ore..."

However, Ouyezi still silenced her with a few words.

Mostly monosyllabic words like "Hmm," "I know," "Okay."

Zhou Huai nodded to himself.

It seemed that the AI in Ouyezi's Clone was designed as a taciturn, inarticulate techie.

Different Clones, different personas.

This seemed a bit interesting.

Soon, the car arrived at the Forging Guild again.

Ouyezi handed the blueprints and Materials list he needed directly to Lin Wei.

"Prepare them and send them to the top-tier forging room."

Lin Wei took the list and quickly nodded, "Okay, Great Master, I'll go take care of it right away."

Ouyezi then walked straight to that familiar top-tier forging room.

Not long after.

Various Materials, fully stocked, were delivered by Guild staff.

The blueprint Ouyezi chose this time was for a Rank 10 ring.

Blue quality.

When forged, it would be at least of Excellent Grade.

The ring was small and exquisite.

It didn't require too many Materials or too much time.

It was perfect for grinding forging Ranks.

If he was lucky enough to forge an Epic-Rank one directly, that would be even more perfect.

Materials were ready.

The heavy door of the top-tier forging room slowly closed.

Ouyezi took a deep breath, a hint of focus flashing in his eyes.

He once again began his tedious and monotonous forging work.

Just then—

"Ding! System notification: Your Clone 'Thunder Swordsman Yasuo' is being maliciously attacked by unknown professionals!"

The cold System notification sound abruptly rang in Zhou Huai's mind!

Zhou Huai's brow furrowed sharply.

How could he be attacked again?!

This wilderness ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) was too unsafe!

It was only the first day out of the city, and he had already been attacked three times!

He didn't hesitate for a moment, immediately switching his consciousness to Yasuo!

The view shifted.

The next second, Zhou Huai was surprised to find that Yasuo was surrounded by more than a dozen professionals!

These figures were shadowy, vaguely forming a encirclement.

Two or three of them, warriors holding swords and shields, had already engaged Yasuo in battle!

"Pfft!"

Yasuo's long sword flashed with a cold light, and a warrior, unable to dodge in time, had a stream of blood spurt from his arm, retreating with a scream.

Clearly, their strength was not too strong.

Zhou Huai's eyes narrowed slightly.

Why were so many people emerging to attack Yasuo?

It was as if they were specifically targeting Yasuo?

Zhou Huai's mind raced.

These people should be from the same Guild as the five guys who died by Yasuo's hand earlier.

It was just that Zhou Huai was a bit unclear.

This forest was so vast, how could these people find Yasuo's location so accurately?

As he pondered, the battle situation in the field changed again.

A steel saber in a warrior's hand was cut off by Yasuo's sword!

"Clang!"

The broken saber fell to the ground.

That warrior, far from being dejected, instead showed a look of wild joy on his face!

He shouted excitedly, "Boss was right! This guy is covered in top-tier equipment! Brothers, take him down for me!"

Zhou Huai sneered in his heart.

They were actually coveting the equipment on Yasuo.

Are these pieces of equipment even worthy of being coveted by you bunch of nobodies?

However, Zhou Huai also noticed the meaning in the other party's words.

How did their boss know that Yasuo was wearing good equipment?

He suddenly remembered the assassin he encountered before.

This made him realize.

It seemed the other party had been eyeing him for a long time.

Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being impolite.

Although these people might all be higher Rank than Yasuo.

But the equipment on them was simply incomparable to Yasuo's.

A full set of Rare-quality equipment, it was probably impossible to find a second person in the entire Tianhai City who possessed it.

What's more, Yasuo was also S-Rank.

Dealing with them was simply a dimensional strike!

Zhou Huai's mind moved, and he gave instructions to AI Yasuo.

"Go all out and kill them!"

In Yasuo's unbridled eyes, killing intent flashed, and he silently nodded.

The next moment, his figure suddenly twisted, not retreating but advancing, actually rushing towards several ranged professionals in another direction!

"Not good! Stop him! Don't let him run!" Someone behind him exclaimed.

Instantly, countless colorful control spells poured towards Yasuo!

Underfoot, tough vines spread wildly!

Overhead, scorching fire rings whistled down!

In front, thick ice walls rose from the ground!

Yasuo, however, suddenly stopped his figure just as he was about to collide with the ice wall!

With a strange footwork, he instantly turned back!

The two warriors following behind him didn't even react to this sudden change of move!

"Pfft!"

One of the warriors was directly stabbed in the chest by Yasuo's turning sword, a precise hit!

Thunderous Strike!

-580!

The paralyzing effect instantly erupted!

That warrior's body stiffened, unable to move!

Yasuo's eyes were cold, and the long sword in his hand did not stop!

Another two consecutive slashes cleanly took away the opponent's last sliver of health!

The entire action flowed like water, like a cold and ruthless killing machine!

After killing one person, Yasuo did not stop!

He charged fearlessly towards the distant mage and archer array like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey!

He plunged into the crowd!

"Focus fire on him!"

"Finish him off!"

Countless skills exploded on Yasuo like fireworks!

Intense roars were incessant!

Yasuo's health bar also visibly dropped by a third!

However, when the smoke and dust cleared.

On the ground, there were already four or five cold corpses!

And Yasuo still stood tall!

The Shadow Wind Set on his body was emitting a faint glow, rapidly restoring his health!

The surrounding attackers couldn't help but feel a chill run from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads!

Is this even human?!

He's simply a monster!

Fear spread rapidly through the crowd like a plague.

This wasn't a game.

Without special resurrection equipment and Dao items.

If you died, you were truly dead.

This was the first time they had encountered such a fierce and desperate tough character!

"This is simply not... human! It's too outrageous!"

"Run... run quickly!"

Finally, someone couldn't bear this extreme fear.

The first one turned and fled!

With the first, there was a second, a third...

The scene instantly spiraled out of control!

A relatively calm warrior shouted hoarsely, "Don't run! Don't run! We still have a chance! We can kill him!"

However, his shouts seemed so pale and powerless in the scattering crowd.

The next second.

A sharp sword light flashed!

The warrior who was shouting "Don't run" stopped abruptly.

His head flew high!

Blood stained Yasuo's stern face.
