Chapter 2 "The First Bloody Battle"

Anti was running away in a hurry.

Oh, could he just use his invincible power to kill his way out?

Although he felt that he was a little braver after traveling through time, his body was a little better than usual, and his mind was a little more flexible, other than that, he was just an ordinary person.

It was pure luck that I was able to kill the monster right away at the beginning. It was because the monster had to drop from the sky. Wasn't that a loophole?

But then so many of them came out at once, let alone monsters, even a dog would have bitten him until he was sweating profusely.

He was fleeing in a panic in the mine tunnel, with his clothes stripped off in several encounters, leaving only a few strips of cloth on his upper body and his pants on his lower body that were stretched so far that the elastic band could hardly hold them together.

There were many scars on his body, bloody scratches and bite marks on the flesh, all clearly visible.

The wound was aching slightly, but he remained calm and looked for a way out.

He was being chased and running around, he didn't know where he was and was a little confused.

In a hurry, he saw a faint light in front of him and ran along it.

After running out of the tunnel, I found a man-made wooden walkway above the place where corpses were piled before.

"Hiss..." The sound of the monster came again behind him. Anti found that there was only one direction to go in this corridor, so he continued to run upwards without thinking too much.

Just as he turned around, a monster rushed out from the dark cave behind him, brushed past Anti, and flew out and fell from a great height.

Anti glanced at him and said, "Everyone, please be careful when playing in high places."

As he said this, he turned around, swung his pickaxe, blocked another monster that rushed out, and kicked it down.

He didn't continue to argue as there were too many people following him, so he could only go up the aisle.

In fact, he can defeat these monsters from this high ground. It is a point that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If things really don't work, it won't be a problem for him to fight to the death here.

"Hiss..."

Just as he was thinking this, Anti heard a sound and raised his head suddenly. More monsters jumped down from the rock wall and pressed him directly onto the walkway.

Yes, yes, yes, these things can also rock climb.

He is really like a wolf and a tiger.

Although it was a very tense time, Anti found that except for the time when he was frightened and felt his heart beating very fast, he quickly returned to his normal state after understanding the current situation.

Even though he was scratched and bitten, his hair and ears were pulled, and his eyes were almost scratched, he still struggled step by step to try to get rid of it.

But more monsters pounced on him, making his chances of escape increasingly slim.

He suddenly turned sideways and knocked some of the monsters entangled in his body against the rock wall next to him, specifically looking for some places with sharp rocks protruding.

stab-

It seems like my leg was hit too?

It doesn’t matter. It’s better to get hurt than to be bitten by a monster.

After getting rid of some of the monsters in this way, he stretched out his hand with difficulty and swung the pickaxe in his hand with force, struggling more and more, and threw the monsters off his body.

There were too many monsters, but the corridor was so small that they soon became their own obstruction.

The opportunity has come.

His other hand was freed and he grabbed a monster that was pulling at his head, pulling away the ugly face that was about to bite his neck.

At this moment, their faces were very close, and Anti could smell the rotten stench coming from the other's jagged mouth.

The monster was very strong and it wanted to bite off Anti's flesh.

laugh!
Bite it down.

But it wasn't the monster that bit Anti, it was Anti that bit the monster.

The whole body needs to be moved, and the mouth itself is also a very useful weapon.

The monster, whose neck was bitten by Anti first, struggled violently and screamed. After its limbs were loosened, Anti suddenly shook his head and let go, throwing the monster off the aisle with his mouth.

He held the pickaxe in both hands and swung it vigorously, hitting and throwing away a large number of monsters.

He finally crawled out from the pile of monsters.

One of his eyes was blinded, and the rest of his body was covered in blood, but fortunately it was only flesh wounds and his hands and feet could still move.

He used the monster's corpse as a stumbling block to block the narrow corridor, and then staggered into another cave at the end of the corridor.

As soon as he entered the cave, before he had time to catch his breath, white and purple-black text suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

[Event - "The First Bloody Battle"]

[Gift from "Lebaons": Your body's regeneration ability is greatly improved. When replenishing through the enemy's "blood", no additional material nutrition and induction power are required. 】

[Price: When regenerating, the sensitivity of the whole body is greatly increased. ]

【Whether to accept? 】

The white words show the gift, the purple-black words show the price, and the rest of the description is in black and white, clear and understandable.

"accept."

The text disappears.

The next moment, unprecedented severe pain gushed out from the wounds all over his body, and the pain in his blinded eyes almost seemed to have spread to his brain.

"Ah!" Anti screamed.

Then he lost consciousness.

What the hell? He might as well go back and fight those things a few more times.

……

In the coma, I seemed to hear many voices whispering in my ears, mixed with laughter. In the coma, my body was moved by something.

Consciousness gradually regained.

Anti opened his eyes again.

Well, good, he didn't die. Although he died suddenly, the monsters didn't seem to catch up with him.

……wrong.

There was a bonfire nearby, and the firelight illuminated the not-so-big cave, dispelling some of the coldness.

There are some utensils placed here, showing signs of frequent use.

So that’s it. It’s not that the monster didn’t catch up, but that he was rescued?
"You woke up so quickly. I just moved you back and settled you down. Do you want to sleep for a while?" A powerful and somewhat hoarse voice sounded.

Anti looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man with a sharp face, who seemed to be quite old, with sparse brown curly hair, wearing a gray robe and holding a bracelet in his hand.

"Did you save me? Thank you." Anti said as he got up.

At the same time he quickly checked his physical condition.

It’s great. There’s not even a single bump or scratch on my body, and my blinded eye is now healed.

Although the price is very bad, the effect of the gift is really good.

But thinking about it this way, he began to wonder what the "life lock" was that was paid in exchange for his eyes.

The price of rebirth is so painful, so am I inadvertently replacing something that is actually quite important?
"Wow, eyes of the night." At this time, the man in front of him looked at Anti and suddenly uttered a low sigh of admiration, "You have a pair of very beautiful eyes. It is said that people with such eyes are brave and fearless."

"Ah, is that so?" Anti touched his eyelids.

Wait?

A fearless person?

Anti thought about his previous journey. For a young man who had been working in the city for many years, he seemed a little too calm and composed.

Although his personality is often described as being Buddhist, he would not fight to the death with a group of monsters when seeing a pile of corpses. The biggest change in his expression throughout the whole process was just that his eyes widened a little.

It turns out that the benefit of these eyes is more than just seeing some information!
Anti's face was expressionless, but his active heart was already sweating profusely.

Come to think of it, my health has gotten a little better, although the improvement in this area is limited. But could this just be a side effect of my eyes?

If you think about it this way, as the price of these eyes with so many special effects, that "life lock" can't be a really important thing, right?
Just like that...morality?
"How did you get stuck in this mine? As far as I know, the town of Gross outside has become a hell on earth. It's difficult for ordinary people to get close to here. Although you have these eyes, you are very vulnerable besides that." The man continued.

"I don't know either. When I came to my senses, I was here."

"Hmm? What kind of place are you from?"

"…Who are you, sir?"

The man smiled and said, "Sorry, I asked too many questions at once. My name is Safin, a believer investigating ancient ruins. But now, due to some problems, I am trapped in this mine and cannot escape."

"My name is Anti." Anti introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you, Anti. Back to what I said before, although you may be wary, judging from your appearance and behavior, you seem to be from the past world of 'Love Land'."

"What is that?" An asked, still wanting to know more about this world.

"That is a world without gods or large-scale wars. Of course, I don't know what it is like now. People there can travel back and forth between the 'Dream World' and the 'Lord'."

"Is this the mixed dream world?"

"Yes, this is the dream world, a dreamlike place. Of course, there are both sweet dreams and nightmares, and right now, there are probably more nightmares." Safin said in a soothing tone, reminding Anti of a math teacher he had in high school.

"I don't know much about these." It seemed that his white aura was clearly visible in front of this person, so Anti didn't continue to play Tai Chi and said directly.

"It can be seen that your inspiration is even still dormant. Generally, people who travel between the two worlds have at least become believers and can perform miracles."

"Miracle? Is it something like a spell?"

"Magic? Well, it seems that some regions do call miracles by this name, but miracle is a name passed down from the era of the Forty-Four Pillar Gods, and it is more orthodox."

"Oh." Anyway, it's just a spell, right?

Safin looked at Anti who was deep in thought, and seemed to be thinking about something too.

After a while, when Anti was about to ask something else, he heard Safin in front of him say, "Since you haven't awakened yet, why don't we make a deal?"

Anti looked at him.

"I will teach you miracles and help you become a believer. After that, I need you to go to the deep mines to get something. Of course, there is no rush. Once you have the ability to protect yourself in the shallow mines, you can go out and take a look to learn more about the situation. You can also return to the 'favored land' to recuperate for a while, and then come back to help me."

Safin put forward conditions, but they were not aggressive and he did not intend to use the opportunity to blackmail others.

"Want to swear an oath or something?"

"unnecessary."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll run away?"

"You may have underestimated the time I'm trapped here. Teaching a newbie won't take up much of my energy. It can even add a little fun to my boring time. If you feel you don't have the ability and the intention, then there's no need to come back." Safin said leisurely.

"This is the first time we've met..."

"I naturally won't trust a newcomer, let alone you are a person from the past world of the favored land. But I believe in your eyes." Safin said with a smile.

There is a feeling of being looked down upon, but at the same time, there is an inexplicable feeling of being given a wonderful trust.

This feeling is really strange.

"I have no reason to refuse." Anti finally responded.

Safin smiled and nodded.

Without delay, the first class began soon.
