"Nacho? That level 33 berserker?"

Western Europe paused, rubbing his chin with his large hand. "If that's the case, then his strength is not bad. Werewolves and our Tiger Clan are related by marriage. If we encounter him, we can consider recruiting him into our Giant Hammer Clan."

"The captain is wise."

Brother Xiong laughed and said, "Of their two teams, only the werewolf girl is passable. As for the others, Linda is just a support who can add shields but has no combat power, and Captain Xueyan, Lia, is small-chested and brainless, not worth worrying about."

"Hahaha, as expected of the vice-captain and commander of the Giant Hammer Adventure Team, I love what you say."

Western Europe nodded in satisfaction and clapped his hands. "It's time to rest. Let's set off to continue gathering materials. If we can find that flower and goose adventure team, we'll take them down as well."

"Awooo!"

The wolf-headed, minotaur, and dog-headed men in the group let out excited shouts.

One of the minotaurs, clad in leather armor, had only taken a couple of steps when a dark whip, moving swiftly through the grass like a venomous snake, grabbed his ankle and lifted him up in a flash.

"Aaaaaah!" the minotaur screamed in terror. "What is that?! Could it be a tentacle flower?"

Just when the minotaur thought his chrysanthemum was in danger, a beam of light and a green arrow of battle aura shot into his belly.

Although the minotaur reacted quickly and reinforced the life barrier at the scene, the attacker's powerful attack still caused him considerable damage.

In particular, that seemingly ordinary light arrow technique caused the Minotaur to vomit blood, and the light of the source core in his spiritual world flickered violently, almost shattering it.

"Star Rank?"

Western Europe drew his twin hammers from his back and roared, "Where did this despicable thief come from? Get out here!"

"Brothers, prepare for battle!" Brother Xiong took out a large, menacing sword about the width of a palm, its blade made of serrated teeth, and looked ahead warily.

Light Arrow is one of the most basic skills for light-elemental mages. It has a fast casting time but low power, but as Brother Xiong replayed that pure golden light arrow in his mind, he felt a chill run down his spine. Compared to ordinary star-level light arrows, that one seemed far too powerful.

As dusk fell, a group of people walked towards them from a distance.

The leader was a man with short black hair, wearing a white shirt, with a loop of bags around his waist and a long sword on his back.

From Xiong Ge's angle, they could only see the hilt of the sword, which seemed to be made of gold, with a round ruby ​​radiating an amazing magical aura.

"As expected, you're all Steel-grade... Oh well, we can't find any Rock-grade, so you'll have to do."

"Five hundred thousand gold coins, and we'll let you go. Or do you want to be beaten into submission first before paying? Then it won't be five hundred thousand anymore."

Linda walked calmly to a position about ten meters in front of the Giant Hammer Adventure Team.

Beside him were two girls, one in blue and one in red, and further out were Oru and Chrona in the front row.

“I know these two. [Giant Hammer] Xi'ou, level 35, leave him to Xueyan. As for the one wielding the greatsword, [Black Bear] Xiong Lei, level 33, you two deal with him.”

Lia's eyes burned with passion.

“We’re definitely fine, but Xueyan needs to be careful. That Western European class should be dual-wielders. Apart from being a bit weak in agility, they are extremely tough and strong.”

Linda said.

By dealing with this Iron-tier team from Red Heart City, he could finally see if the 'low-health' strategy was effective.

They glanced at Lulu and nodded in unison.

Right before the eyes of the Western Europeans, Lulu suddenly glared and scratched at her own arm with her claws.

"You look down on us?" Western Europe said angrily.

"Captain, be careful, these two teams are Luanweihua and Xueyan." Xiong Ge, whose real name is Xiong Lei, is a lightning-type warrior. He clicked his tongue and said, "That Xueyan team has two star ranks, they're not easy to deal with."

"Two level 30s with unstable auras, you call them Star Rank? Watch me beat them until they beg for mercy on their knees!"

“That Leah is Davin’s sister, Captain, remember not to go too far.”

"Davin? Hmph, losing in the Greater Rift is her own fault, even if it's Davin, there's nothing to say. Don't even mention Davin's sister, even if it's the sister of Aragja, the leader of the Heart Adventurers, I'll beat her without hesitation."

With a sinister grin, Xi'ou banged his twin hammers, casting a skill called "White Heat" on himself to increase his strength and defense, before striding toward Lia.

Xiong Lei, on the other hand, is facing off against Lulu.

The other members of the Giant Hammer Adventurer Team were stopped by Oru and Chrona.

"That's about enough," Linda reminded Lulu reluctantly.

Due to her frantic self-harm, Lulu's health dropped below 1000.

Lulu's innate skill [Bloodlust] was activated. Her wolf tail thickened, her pale blue eyes emitted a bloody red light, and she let out a low growl.

In this state, Lulu's damage increases by 50%, reaching the level of a five-star character.

Linda waved her hand, casting a Verdant Shield on Lulu.

His health points and shield thickness are 5760, almost equivalent to Lulu's 'full health', but he has an additional 50% damage increase.

"Venom Orb!"

Linda cast a spell first, attracting Xiong Lei's attention.

While Xiong Lei was dodging, Lulu lowered her body and darted out, circling around Xiong Lei and kicking up a cloud of dust.

Lulu is already extremely agile, and with the Silver Ring providing a large amount of stat boosts, she's practically on par with an assassin.

She spun faster and faster, leaving trails of afterimages.

Xiong Lei stared wide-eyed, but still couldn't pinpoint Lulu's location!

All that could be seen was a pair of blood-red eyes, appearing and disappearing in the smoke and dust.

This pressure caused Xiong Lei to break out in a cold sweat!

Suddenly, a blue phantom burst out from the smoke and dust.
