Suho was also familiar with Liu Zhigang.

'China's one and only Six-Star hunter. In his previous life, he was a Seven-Star.'

What a coincidence. In his search for Siddharth Bachchan, he unexpectedly ran into another National Level Hunter. It even seemed that the Apostle of Itarim was already in his body. Suho nodded upon seeing the blue mana that was constantly leaking out of Liu Zhigang's entire body. "After all, it was correct to assume that Itarim would have approached all of the National Level Hunters."

He was surprised to encounter Liu Zhigang in an unexpected place, but it was a good thing that he was able to speed things up.

[Young Lord, hurry up and give Liu Zhigang the Spring Water of the Echo Forest!]

Suho immediately grabbed a Purifying Potion from his inventory. But it didn't look like it would be easy. Is it possible to break through the incessant barrage of attacks from all sides, and put a Purifying Potion in his mouth? It seemed that it would be difficult to spray it on his body like it did with Thomas Andre. After all, the best way to do this is through conversation, but the problem is the language barrier. For Suho who didn't speak Chinese at all, it was impossible for him to communicate with Liu Zhigang in the first place. None of the Shadow Soldiers could speak Chinese either.

"Then the only wayI can do this is..."

[Don't worry, I'll quickly catch any Chinese who are passing by and eat their brains–]

"Nope, stop."

Suho hastily caught Beru, who was about to leave in search of any chinese. Fortunately, It was quicker to find an Indian who was fluent in Chinese than it was to find (and eat) a Chinese person in India. Since, isn't there someone who can do just that?

"Suho! I'm here! AH! Liu– Liu Zhigang?!

"Why is China's Liu Zhigang here!!" fre(e)webno(v)el

Ryo Singh and Jackson, who had been chasing Suho with Gordon out of the shadows a step too late, saw Liu Zhigang and their eyes immediately widened. Suho shouted at Ryo Singh. "Ryo Singh! Can you translate Chinese?"

"Of course! I'm the elite of the Asura Guild! I speak 10 languages!"

[Kieek? Was it so? Oh I get it now! Once I eat his brain then everything will—Kiek!?!.]

Press.

Suho's foot lightly stepped on Beru who was trying to reach out to Ryo Singh. As he stopped Beru, he shouted back "Ryo Singh! From now on, translate what I say to Liu Zhigang!"

"Got it!" Ryo Singh nodded confidently and shouted at Liu Zhigang, who was fighting Greed.

"Liu Zhigang! We are not your enemies!!!"

Bang!

Unfortunately, the current situation was too violent to be resolved through dialogue.

Boom!

Liu Zhigang's sword qi brushed shallowly against Greed's body, cutting through the forest behind him.

[Huh?!]

Suddenly, Liu Zhigang swerved and leapt towards Suho while Greed gnashed his teeth and chased after him. "How dare you overtake me and aim for our Young Lord!" And then–

Paaat!

[!!!]

At that moment, Liu Zhigang suddenly flipped in the air and tried to find a loophole against Greed again.

Boom!

Greed gnashed his teeth as he managed to parry his attacks. Their eyes lit up, and powerful energy clashed with each other. Smirk. Liu Zhigang glared at Greed, a faint smile formed on his lips. "I confirmed it now, you're all acting in one group."

Liu Zhigang's battle was informal. The penance of the past two years has made him so. The boundary between reality and imagination had become blurred allowing for endless freedom of bloodthirst to roam. That was the path of swordsmanship that Liu Zhigang reached in this life: 'Berserker' 'Slaughterer' 'Sword Demon' It was the reason why the man who was once a National Level Hunter was given such vicious nicknames.

[Is this really the Liu Zhigang of this life!?]

There was a deep smile on Greed's lips. Greed clearly remembered Liu Zhigang's name in his previous life. Although it was a pity that the power of the National Level Hunter was gone, Greed himself was considerably weaker than when he was Sung Jin-Woo's soldier.

[Then I'll take this seriously, with all my heart!]

Boom!

In an instant, the beautiful scenery was destroyed, and the aftermath of a natural disaster spread all around.

"Oh my God. What the hell is this..."

"Is this Liu Zhigang's power..."

In the face of such devastation, Ryo Singh and Jackson could not keep their mouths shut. And at the same time, there was one question that came to mind: the presence of Greed, who was fighting against Liu Zhigang, was not being pushed back at all.

'No way, It's getting close to Liu Zhigang's power?'

'It's not like Hunter Sung Suho is fighting directly, so how can a single summon have that much power!'

Notably, Ryo Singh, who was familiar with the number of summons that Suho usually wields, was shocked. Right now they're all scattered under the command of Suho, but what if all those soldiers gathered here? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝑚

'Does Liu Zhigang even stand a chance?' Ryo Singh dared not to imagine. But now he had no time to sit back and watch the fight. If he got caught up in the aftermath, his life would be in danger. "Jackson! Let's get back for now! This is not a safe place for us to talk!" Ryo Singh and Jackson gave up interpreting and fell back in a hurry. But they weren't the only ones caught up in the aftermath of the battle.

"Kieek!"

"Hissss!"

The dragonfolk who had encountered Liu Zhigang one step ahead of Greed, and were fighting against him, were also thrown away from the fight. Looking at the dragonfolk, Suho narrowed his eyes as he looked at the names above their heads.

[Variant No. 8]

[Variant No. 8]

'Variant No. 8?' Suho left Liu Zhigang to Greed for a moment, paying attention to the appearance of the dragonfolk he had never seen before. Half-man, half-dragon. It was a half-hearted race that was closer to the human side than the Lizardmen. Aside from their appearance, however, blue mana was emanating from the 'Star Piece' planted throughout their bodies.

Just like the Foreign followers in the black market!

"Could it be that they transplanted Star Pieces into magic beasts?" Ever since he came to this country, he has seen all kinds of strange things. The unawakened citizens who wear Stardust Necklaces and live in Field Dungeons are also in a mysterious sight, and now even the magic beasts are moving around with implanted Star Pieces.

"Antares! Do you know anything about those variants?"

"Beep?.... Hmm."

Suho's question suddenly made Ragnar's gaze turn solemn. There was a disapproving look on his cute face.

"It bears a great shame on the dragonfolk for such half-pennies to be born."

"Half pennies?"

The emotion that rose in Antares' eyes as he looked at the dragons, or rather, the mutants, was one of unmistakable displeasure, contempt. "They're not dragons born in a normal way. Someone must have found a hidden lair of undeveloped dragon eggs."

"Underdeveloped eggs..."

[Young Lord, You don't think that...]

Suddenly, Suho and Beru looked at each other, and the same thought popped into their minds.

"Could they have been the ones my mother found?"

[It's likely they were the eggs of the dragon race, who were left without a single substance.]

A large number of dragon-type eggs that Cha Hae-In and Sirka found in the Tombs of Dragons. Except for the small egg from which Ragnar was born, all the others banished as soon as they were touched.

"...They were born there?"

"Rather than being born, someone must have extracted the dragon energy from the egg and infused it into other races. It's called 'forced evolution.'" Antares looked very uncomfortable. No matter how much he cared about anything other than destruction and ruin, it was a matter of pride for dragons like him to be treated as test subjects by someone. "How dare they."

Antares' gaze turned to the mutants, his eyes were brutal. Suho nodded at the sight and looked forward, his eyes flashing as he looked around at the area that was being destroyed by a natural disaster.

"Alright. Let's find out what's going on in this country once we've sorted out this mess. Harmakan."

[Yes my lord?]

It was Harmakan, the shadow who rose from the floor at the call of Suho. "Capture all the mutants. And tell me in what kind of state they are..."

[To study them thoroughly.]

Shwaaa!

Harmakan immediately sped toward the mutants. At the same time, Suho exclaimed. "Sillad!"

[The King Snowfolk, the Frost Monarch keeps an eye on you.]

Suho felt the gaze of the presence and spoke proudly. "Trigger Frigid Blizzard."

FWOOSH!

At that moment, a real natural disaster had appeared in this land.

[Use 'Skill: Frigid Blizzard'.]

[Mana Required: 100 per second.]

The freezing blizzard that had turned Ireland into an ice city had swept over India.

Kwoooooooooo

"Kieek!" Suddenly, the frantic mutations began to freeze. Even Liu Zhigang was not immune from the powerful blizzard that covered the entire area.

['Debuff: Frost Curse' is applied.]

[–30% Attack Speed.]

[–30% movement speed.]

"....He is much more vicious than I thought. Whether his men get caught up or not, he's using an AoE(1) skill like this." Liu Zhigang's brow furrowed, mistaking Greed and the mutants for being in the same band as Suho. But the decision was quick. "Hit the bottom line of all this!" His new form shot straight through the blizzard and toward the Suho.

BOOM!

Before he knew it, the two horns of Volkan in Suho's hands collided with Liu Zhigang's sword qi.

[Young Lord!]

"Stay!" (2)

Suho discouraged Greed from coming to his aid. His gaze deepened as he made eye contact with Liu Zhigang.

"The Apostle of Itarim..." Is it because of the blizzard? Right now, the scene of 'that time' was unfolding in Suho's mind. The moment when his mother, Cha Hae-in, slashed the Apostle of Itarim with a single sword. That beautiful and wondrous power. 'What would it be like now?' Exciting. He wondered. Now that the level is higher than it was back then. He wondered if he could reach his mother with his power now.

Therefore, 'I'll use all my power!!'

――――――!

Finally, the power of Suho collided with that of Liu Zhigang. With its immense power, a frigid blizzard roared relentlessly, shaking the whole world. And behind him...

"..." Antares the dragon stared at Suho in silence with a cold stare. From start to finish. Without taking his eyes off it even once....Smirk.

A faint smile appeared on his lips. "For a novice, you are not so bad."

The wind stopped.

1:Area of Effect

2: Literal translation is just "???!" which is Greed's name, but i thought it would be confusing since usually you call on someone's name for help, in english at least.
