Return Of The Monarch - Chapter 16 Sun Yi

Tang Bai, the slim middle-aged man, snickered, and he moved forward. Lifting his wooden club, he stood face to face with a two-meter hunchbacked orc. For some reason, he felt that the initial fear in the orc’s eyes had vanished, but he could not retreat. He cursed, “B*tch. I, your grandfather, will teach you a lesson.”

Smiling at the crowd’s compliments, Tang Bai felt his courage surge. While he was still thinking of another insult, the orc swung its sharp cutlass at his neck. Sensing the impending danger, he felt his heart drop, and he tried to duck.

To his surprise, the orc also ducked, and it grinned at him. Tang Bai noticed his underwear had become drenched, and he cried, “No!”

Luckily, Tang Bai had increased his speed stat to 90. He was nine times faster than the normal human. Sprinting to the crowd, he weakly collapsed in the middle. Coming that close to death, he almost fainted with fear.

The crowd was stunned. The orcs were well-trained; furthermore, the orcs also had intelligence? Some of them tried to comfort the slim middle-aged man, while a few men snorted at his downfall.

“Well, I don’t like our chances.” Liu Jun had a helpless sigh, and he looked at his two childhood friends.

“Our side is outnumbered at least ten to one.” Huang Dong gritted his teeth.

The deadlock had been broken. Furthermore, the humans were on the losing end. Feng Hui sighed inwardly, “It seems that I will have to take action.”

But out of the blue, a red-haired man who had the aura of a general walked toward the monsters. The man had sharp features with a confident aura; his moves were poised and controlled. Feng Hui saw the man and he held himself back, “Interesting.”

Sun Yi, the red-haired man, stood above the rest. His face with a beaming smile as if he was having the best moment of his life. The orcs looked at him with a weird expression.

“Die!” Sun Yi abruptly laughed. He waved his sleeves, and a golden fire blossomed like a flower budding. With large waves of fireballs, he started scorching the monsters to ash with ease. The red-haired man attacked relentlessly akin to a malevolent demon.

“Magic?!” Liu Jun’s eyes bulged in shock.

“Is this still the power of a human?” Qian Xue muttered with a troubled look.

“Big Sister, is the red-haired man strong?” Xie Na shyly asked her new friend.

“Very strong.” Qian Xue replied with a complicated stare.

“Wow, that’s so cool!” Xie Na brightly laughed, seemingly undisturbed of the monsters, as if she was confident she’d be fine.

Qian Xue saw this, and she thought, “Xiao Na trusts me this much? I’ll definitely protect her.”

Even the more confident individuals in the group were shocked to the point of their eyes popping out of their eye sockets, their jaw dropped.

“Magic!”

Most of them had an intense desire burn in their eyes. They too desired this power.

In a flash, the red-haired man had burned alive countless monsters. Sun Yi continued laughing maliciously, “Die! Die!”

“Brother Dong, could this be the next level of evolution?” Liu Jun excitedly asked.

“I think so. Brother Jun, see the word ‘white’ in brackets beside our stats in the {Player Status}?” Huang Dong replied.

“Yes. It seems that if we evolve enough, we too will reach this level.” Liu Jun smirked. As a gamer, he loved the concept of magic and evolution.

While the crowd was watching the red-haired man, Sun Yi unexpectedly turned around. Inspecting the crowd, he grinned.

This grin held malicious intent, and it terrified the crowd. Did he want their blood too?

Luckily, Sun Yi switched back to fighting the monsters. Drenched in cold sweat, the crowd sighed a breath of relief.

A while later, on the surface, the ratio between monsters and humans had diminished to the same. At this stage, most of the surviving monsters were petrified. Seeing the cruel red-haired man sent a shiver down their spine.

“A natural warrior.” Feng Hui nodded as if he understood the red-haired man’s character. In peaceful times, for a human born on Earth, the red-haired man was undoubtedly gifted. If the man had been raised in the Dragon Continent, he would have become a first-rate commander.

“Still.” While looking at the night sky, Feng Hui continued to wait for something.

Feng Hui’s senses told him something was coming, and he was not disappointed.

A loud ringing boomed. At the source of the noise, a verdict had been projected in beautiful golden letters. In the cascade of night clouds, it read[Team Battle Royale. The survivors are to form up to teams of five. At the end, half the teams will remain.]

This projection caught the attention of everyone. A simple and unadulterated command without room for refusal.

Somehow, of the near fifty survivors, all of them had survived the onslaught. The achievement could be attributed to the demon-like Sun Yi with magical powers.

“Teams of five? Won’t there be leftovers then?” Huang Dong scanned the survivors, and he counted a total of forty-seven people.

“Likely one of the groups will have only have two members.” Liu Jun contemplated. In a team battle, that would be far too unfavorable. Being outnumbered, their backs would be exposed.

“Big Sister what do we do?” Xie Na looked at her friend with some complication in her eyes.

“I told you; I’ll protect you!” Qian Xue coaxed the cute red-bloused girl with a bright smile.

Meanwhile, the other survivors scrambled to form groups. The majority had been transferred alone; therefore, the survivors hastened to make some companions in order not to be the one left out.

Feng Hui’s expression was calm and indifferent despite the panic, his gaze even staring at the struggling survivors without flinching. From his calm face, the white-uniformed teenager seemed to not mind being the one left out.

Xie Na had come with her family; furthermore, they numbered to four in total. Finally, the cute-red bloused girl started to panic, and she stared pitifully at her new friend.

“I’ll join your family’s group.” Qian Xue reassured the scared teenage girl. The beautiful brunette also added, “Your two new brothers will also protect you, right Jun?”

“Yeah.” Liu Jun said helplessly. Noticing his girlfriend’s threatening look, he had to concede. Besides, nothing had forbidden the teams to form alliances.

“Considering the phenomena we have encountered so far, we have to follow this bastard’s rules.” Huang Dong cursed with a helpless look.

“Brother Hui, what about you?” Xie Na had a complicated light in her beautiful eyes when looking at the calm Feng Hui. Although she adored the handsome genius, her family naturally took priority.

“Don’t mind me.” Feng Hui laughed. The entire time, he had lowered his presence. Surprisingly, the cute girl who resembled his little sister still remembered him.

Only now did Liu Jun’s group recall the mysterious youth. With a complex look, Liu Jun asked, “Want to join us?”

“No need.” Feng Hui smiled. He noticed the idol-level man’s reluctance. As a proud man, he would never force himself on others.

Huang Dong wanted to insist for the teenager to join them, but he detected a chilling light in the youth’s pitch-black eyes, so he stopped. He mumbled, “This man is definitely not normal”

Outside of their group, nearly everyone was clamoring around the red-haired Sun Yi. In their mind, if this demon was on their side, victory was assured. However, the man shook his head at the proposals; instead, he turned his gaze to a white-uniformed teenager standing underneath a dark lamppost.

Under the shocked looks of numerous onlookers, the red-haired Sun Yi nonchalantly walked to the white-uniformed teenager.

Sun Yi’s blue eyes became friendly, and he brightly laughed, “I’m Sun Yi, want to form a team?”
for visiting.

At the same time, the red-haired man extended his hand. Feng Hui liked the man’s straightforwardness; furthermore, his talent was also no slouch. So, he chuckled, “Sure, the name’s Feng Hui.”
