Reborn as a Hatrack in the Mystical Land-Chapter 742 - 11: Soaked

The street corner was bustling with people coming and going, witnessing a few provocations, but no one stepped forward to intervene, nor did anyone stop it.

In the mercenary profession, which is unlike other professions, brawling is considered nothing to mercenaries, even if a few people die it’s still seen as a minor matter.

If someone is challenged and you do not respond, that is a big deal, a disgraceful big deal.

"Dongzi," Luo Compass, sensing the situation was not good, murmured, "The captain said, being new here, don’t take things too personally with others."

The July Mercenary Team was unfamiliar with Geyue Town, and this area was full of highly skilled people; casually picking anyone might result in a famous mercenary group as a backup according to Luo Compass’s logic - better to avoid trouble if possible.

"Escaping once is possible, but not twice," Qin Dongting pulled out his Mountain and River Fan from his waist, his handsome features covered with a layer of frost, emitting a slight chill.

Eighteen street corners on one street, how many such people could there be? Qin Dongting caressed his Mountain and River Fan, and with a "snap" opened it.

Although Luo Compass was afraid of causing trouble, he was no fool. After giving it some thought, he understood Qin Dongting’s intention; he took a few glances in the crowd and indeed spotted several suspicious figures.

Someone was plotting against them, and the enemy apparently had some power.

Luo Compass’ eyes flickered, he was the captain of a "Second Generation Soldier" mercenary group, proving he had a brain.

He remembered Yue Jinghua saying that Qin Dongting’s Illusion Technique was his trump card for overcoming enemies, and that it should not be used in public unless necessary. If luck was bad, and someone had a Spiritual Artifact capable of recording memories, like the Mirror Sound Spring, it might be recorded and later researched, making Qin Dongting vulnerable during a confrontation.

With Dongzi’s strength, it would be easy to defeat this group using Illusion Technique, but revealing the secret of his Illusion Technique would be more loss than gain.

"Damn it, I hate those who do things behind the back," Luo Compass spat, lifted his clothes, waved his hammer-like fist, and pushed Qin Dongting back, "Dongzi, step back. I’m here. We’re not good at other things, but taking a beating is fine. Save your strength."

Qin Dongting nodded, secretly touched by Luo Compass’ consideration.

Luo Compass snorted twice, his body burst out with Dark Energy, instead of forming a Dark Energy Armor around his whole body like ordinary people, it formed a tiny shuttle-shaped shield that kept revolving in front of him.

"What is that thing, you fat man, you think you can use it to block us brothers?" Seeing the object in front of the fat man that resembled a Dark Energy Shield and a medium-sized dart, that group of mercenaries burst into laughter.

Luo Compass’s eyes shone, he proudly thought to himself, laugh now, laugh, but the captain always said, the last to laugh is the winner, watch me beat you until you’re searching for teeth later.

After being transformed by Yue Jinghua with Divine Runes, Luo Compass’ physique changed; not only was he incredibly strong, but his defensive power was also not far behind a strange beast like the Land Crocodile Turtle on the continent. However, this set of Divine Runes on his body had a significant flaw; due to his limited Dark Power, he could not use them often, even though he now had reached the Dark Earth Great Success in cultivation, he could withstand blades and guns only a couple of times.

So, during training in the Shura Sword Formation, especially when facing Chen Jiangyin who appeared to be a gentleman on the outside, but inside was more villainous than any villain, Luo Compass, to handle his endless sly attacks, in the later stages of training, eventually mastered his own unique Dark Technique, the Linglong Shuttle Shield.

"You fat man putting on airs, brothers, let’s go together, handle this fat man first, then deal with Qin Dongting," seeing Luo Compass’ face, the mercenaries felt unbearable anger and charged forward.

Their weapons moved seamlessly, instantly engulfing Luo Compass.

But unknown to them, Luo Compass faced the attack of the crowd calmly.

With a slight movement of his_SPRITUAL SENSE, the small shuttle shield grew beautiful patterns, much like a peacock spreading its feathers.

With a swoosh, the shuttle disk began to spin rapidly.

Bang bang bang, one could only hear a series of blunt hits, blocking the attacks of the mercenaries.

Then, a flash of white light from the flying shuttle swept like an extremely sharp blade towards the leading mercenary.

The mercenary only felt a lightness on his head, and a tuft of hair fell off directly.

Another swoosh, and a mercenary felt his waist lighten, as his belt that had been securely fastened broke into two, exposing his bare thighs.

Having undergone the dual training from Yue Jinghua and Chen Jiangyin, Compass deeply understood a principle: to strike quickly, venomously, and catch the opponent off guard.

His Delicate Shuttle Shield, petite and exquisite, is a special Dark Technique formed by the combination of the Dark Energy within his body and Divine Runes. It consumes less, is faster, and is ideal for battling foes. It not only saves Dark Power for multiple uses but also allows him to handle situations with ease, making it the most suitable Dark Technique for him.

Pleased with himself, Compass’s Delicate Shuttle Disk was unstoppable, successively defeating several mercenaries.

"Compass, watch your back," just as Compass was feeling smug.

Only to hear a gust of fist wind coming from behind, chilling his scalp.

Compass cursed silently, realizing that one of the mercenaries in front had disappeared.

It turned out that among these mercenaries, one possessed a rare Concealment Dark Technique. He snuck behind Compass during the tremble fight and launched a stealth attack.

Compass hurriedly summoned the Delicate Shuttle Shield back while dodging backwards, but the assailant came so suddenly and the punch was swift, striking him directly in the midsection from behind.

As the Linglong Shuttle Shield returned like a counter-lance, a crisp sound followed.

Then a "puchi" sound was heard, and the Delicate Shuttle Disk crashed directly into the chest of the sneaky mercenary. With a crackle, no need to say, several ribs on that person’s chest broke, and he flew out like a withered leaf, falling to the ground.

"Haha, fellas, take a look at my Linglong Shuttle Shield!" Compass touched his waist, not feeling any pain and even more triumphant, his action of one against many could really boost his reputation.

The chubby man puffed out his chest proudly, and the onlookers’ gazes towards him changed swiftly, which only made Compass feel even more elated, his face beaming with joy.

After his successful strike, those few hidden and tracking mercenaries also quickly left the scene.

Qin Dongting looked around at the wailing mercenaries, then looked at the smug-faced Compass, wanted to laugh but couldn’t: "Compass, your pants are wet."

What?

Compass, basking in pride, upon hearing Qin Dongting’s reminder, looked down and indeed there was a large wet patch at his waist.

His face, plump like a mooncake, trembled a few times, issuing a wail.
