Pretending To Be A Boss

Chapter 105 The True Identity of the Masked Chopper Hero

Tang Xian led Tang Suoye deeper into the red clay forest.

But they were stopped by Song Que again.

"The area ahead is not safe; there are many ferocious beasts in the mines, and deeper in, there are nearly forty Zudun Giants. To enter rashly would be extremely dangerous," Song Que called out.

Without turning back, Tang Xian continued walking and said,

"Don't worry, although the Zudun Sage Tree is powerful, it ultimately cannot give chase. I'm not confident I can uproot it, but I have more than enough ability to protect myself."

Tang Xian's confident voice gradually faded into the distance.

Song Que stared blankly into the distance, realizing the other party already knew about the existence of the calamity-class boss.

"There is always a higher mountain. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that a human could do what just happened," Gu Luo exclaimed not far away.

The Cyclops King nodded. Although the battle had ended, it still left him in disbelief.

He looked at Lin Jue and said,

"Lin, that little girl, how do I feel like she's not on the same level as us? Isn't she practically a humanoid boss?"

Lin Jue retorted,

"To speak of humanoid bosses, that Masked Chopper Hero might be even stronger. These two characters seem like they've just crossed over from a damn fantasy film set to our martial arts set."

The ghastly battle, accompanied by the sorrow of parting, was momentarily forgotten in the joy of surviving the ordeal.

Everyone's tense nerves also relaxed. The fight that started with a jester had now come to an end,

and Song Que and the others rested and took care of one another by turns.

When Li Zheng's team arrived, it was already half an hour later.

The sight deep in the red clay forest left Li Zheng and his teammates at a loss.

All they could see were hunters lying on the ground, not getting up, some still alive, others long dead.

The scent of blood in the air was piercing.

Seeing Song Que, Li Zheng couldn't imagine what hardships such a favored son of heaven had endured.

"What happened? Why are so many people... Could it be an encounter with a horde of beasts?" Li Zheng approached Song Que.

Song Que looked very pale and shook his head.

Qin Qian was very cautious. She was always attentive and soon noticed a detail.

Many of the hunters lying on the ground bore that unforgettable smile. Experience new tales on empire

But all of these people were already dead.

Seeing that Li Zheng and his people were unharmed, Song Que also heaved a sigh of relief and said somewhat helplessly,

"Zheng, you really are blessed by the heavens for not having to face this battle."

"What in the world happened? What's the situation? It seems all the hunters from the hunting festival have gathered here, right?"

"Almost, but it wasn't a beast horde."

Song Que began to slowly recount what had happened to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng listened with mounting horror, piecing together what Qin Qian had told him on the way; he could begin to appreciate just how terrifying the Clown was as an adversary.

He wasn't like any ordinary person, or rather, the Clown's will seemed like a virus.

In terms of martial strength, he might not be terrifying, but his corrosion of people's hearts was irresistible.

However, when hearing about the Masked Chopper Hero, his reaction was the most intense.

"Masked Chopper Hero? The little blue-eyed sorceress? They showed up here?"

Li Zheng knew of the Masked Chopper Hero; he also knew of Tang Suoye.

But he had never seen Tang Suoye's eyes.

He couldn't imagine any human eyes that could shine with the light of sapphires.

Nor could he imagine why a little girl would be able to unleash such powerful telekinesis.

Qin Qian was also incredulous when she learned of this scene.

Her abilities were also related to telekinesis; within her sphere of influence, biological speeds become extremely slow. Small objects would come to a standstill.

But to control hundreds of top hunters at the same time? That was the stuff of fantasy.

The crowd was already stunned, and upon reflection, they found this power all the more terrifying.

The expression on Li Zheng's face was complex.

Tang Xian was Akasi's teammate, and so was the Masked Chopper Hero, and now there was a little blue-eyed sorceress.

With the wreckage spread before him, although Li Zheng had not witnessed the battle firsthand, he could imagine the horror of the sorceress.

An earlier conversation with his sister suddenly came to his mind.

"There are four more months. I hope the Li family can always act according to our own reasoning," she had said.

"Always prioritize the interests of all humanity first?"

"Yes."

This dialogue made Li Zheng paused.

At that time, forming an alliance with the Song Family and gaining their support was in the Li family's best interest.

He couldn't imagine someone relying solely on their own strength, or that of a small team, to demonstrate greater value.

But now this thought began to waver.

At this point, Song Que lowered his voice and whispered,

"Zheng, the Masked Chopper Hero, is he the Tang we met that day?"

Li Zheng looked at Song Que with a face that was as if he was listening to a ludicrous statement, but his heart was tumultuous.

He wasn't certain if Tang Xian was indeed the Masked Chopper Hero.

He had indeed considered it.

"Why do you say that? Tang Xian is indeed talented, but he is hardly strong, quite weak in fact."

"My mind was very confused before. I didn't immediately remember his voice, but now I've cleared up some. Although Tang's voice was rather serious last time, this time it seemed deliberately unserious, but I can tell it's the same person."

Li Zheng began to sort out his thoughts.

Everything started with Tang Xian.

At least, the only one who went back and forth to Fortress Thirty-Nine was Tang Xian.

This Masked Chopper Hero had never appeared again after Tang Xian returned to Fortress Thirty-Nine.
