Chapter 66

~7 min read 1,329 words

Withdrawing his gaze, Xie Yaoyao couldn't help but sigh.

"This guy, you really can't count on her to behave herself!"

The assembled logging camp foremen and guards had just rushed to the front of the slave cabin when the cabin was destroyed from within.

"Boom!"

Vivian kicked through the cabin wall and walked out brazenly, shouldering her great sword.

"Come on, you bastards! I can't wait any longer!"

After saying this, she threw off her cloak and charged straight at the crowd.

The logging camp guards recognized Vivian the moment they saw her; recently, this person had become the number one internet celebrity in Heisen Town.

"Charge, kill her! The Viscount has a bounty of twenty gold coins on this woman!"

"Don't anyone fight me for it, I'm taking this stinking woman's head."

"Awoo, she actually dared to break in all by herself, she really doesn't know how to die!"

For a time, arrows and blades flew, iron swords and long spears thrust wildly, and the fighting was in full swing.

Vivian's armor must have been a powerful item, blocking eighty percent of the damage for her, which made her even more reckless as she hacked at people.

But it was obvious that there were too many opponents, and if this went on for long, Vivian would definitely be defeated.

The slaves huddled together in terror, watching the great battle before them uneasily.

Xie Yaoyao casually tore a piece of bark from a Black Rock Iron Tree beside him, poked two holes in it, and put it on his face; Xie Yaoyao then strode toward the chaotic logging camp.

As he walked, Xie Yaoyao's figure gradually expanded, and the clothes on his body and the mask on his face seemed to melt away, replaced by thick fur.

His hands had already turned into large bear paws planted on the ground; Xie Yaoyao stood upright again and let out a heaven-shaking roar toward the bright moon in the night sky.

"Roar!"

Having completely transformed into a giant bear, Xie Yaoyao felt for the first time what power was—a power completely different from manipulating plants to attack, a purer power.

"What is that? A bear? How can there be such a big bear?"

"Idiot! That's the pet of Miss Yibeika, the boss of the Forestry Company."

"Right, I know that too, it's called the Cruel Giant Bear. But why would it appear here?"

Xie Yaoyao wasn't here to be evaluated by others; he couldn't resist wanting to swing his paws and smash something to satisfy his craving.

Roaring once more, Xie Yaoyao charged into the crowd and began the slaughter.

Such immense power didn't need any extra technique; one slap per person, it was all about equality for all living things.

The pincer attack from Xie Yaoyao and Vivian instantly shattered the psychological defenses of the logging camp guards.

"This is a conspiracy, everyone run!"

"The Forestry Company is rebelling, I'm going to notify the guards of Heisen Territory."

"Idiot, you are the guard. If you're going to run, just run, what kind of lousy excuse is that."

Those who could be assigned to a logging camp naturally wouldn't be any experts; this place was just a factory for the Viscount of Heisen to amass wealth, and the real experts were all in the Viscount's castle.

Seeing the guards dying or injured, the rest all scrambled and ran toward the forest.

Xie Yaoyao, who had just gotten into the zone, shook the blood off his bear paws with dissatisfaction and turned back into human form.

The slaves watching from the sidelines saw the scene before them, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

That huge, brutal giant bear from just a moment ago had actually turned into a human wearing a bark mask in the blink of an eye.

But on second thought, this lord was with the heroine, so he must also be a hero sent by the gods to save the suffering masses.

Hmm, that makes sense!

Xie Yaoyao turning back into human form naturally wasn't to perform magic tricks for the slaves, but to prepare to close the net.

His natural force erupted, the emerald green light shining and reflecting off the silver moonlight, and "rumbling" sounds came continuously from around the logging camp.

Those guards and foremen who had just fled into the forest didn't even have time to rejoice before the ground beneath their feet began to shake, followed by countless spiked vines rushing out of the ground, entangling and weaving together.

All the trees, birds, beasts, and those guards and foremen on the ground were tightly entangled together, the spikes piercing into flesh and wood, crazily absorbing their life force.

In the moonlight, those crazily dancing spiked vines were like tentacles from hell, and the screams were endless.

The slaves were completely stunned by the scene before them, but no one sympathized with those guards and foremen; in the eyes of all the slaves, there was only infinite satisfaction.

"Those who do evil will surely reap what they sow; this is the cycle of the Dao of Heaven!"

At this moment, Xie Yaoyao seemed to have a deeper understanding of the Druid's Balance Doctrine!

When everything calmed down, the entire logging camp had turned into a giant bird's nest.

The slaves gathered one after another around Vivian, looking fearfully at the man in front of them wearing the strange black mask.

Although he had saved everyone with powerful strength, the scene around them, which looked like the arrival of the abyss, made everyone's hearts hang high.

By comparison, Vivian, who was smiling brightly and healing the old, weak, sick, and disabled with warm golden Holy Light, was much more reassuring.

Xie Yaoyao didn't want to take off his mask and reveal his appearance, and he also knew that his current image was quite terrifying, so he just stood in place without a word, silently recovering the natural force in his body, leaving everything for Vivian to handle.

After healing the last slave with a severely grazed palm, Vivian wiped the sweat from her forehead and revealed her signature silly smile.

"Alright, everyone hurry up and pack your things and get ready to leave! It will take until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest for the guards in town to know the news here, so everyone has enough time to escape Heisen Territory."

What things did the slaves have to pack? If it weren't for the dense spiked vines around them being too terrifying, they would have long since scattered and run away.

Now that Vivian had spoken, all the slaves showered her with another round of thanks.

"Benefactor, you are the stars in the sky, please guide us on our way!"

"Eh? Don't you know where your hometown is? Go home!"

Vivian couldn't quite figure it out; she had already saved them, did she have to send them all the way home? Besides, there were too many people.

The man with the injured palm stood out to explain.

"Hero, you don't know, we don't have homes anymore! We are either defeated prisoners or people abducted and sold by human traffickers."

The man glanced at the black mask on Xie Yaoyao, which looked even more sinister and terrifying in the moonlight, swallowed his saliva, and continued.

"We only ask that you point us in a clear direction; we've been locked up here for too long and have no idea where to run to survive."

This question was obviously beyond Vivian's brain capacity; she scratched her head, and finally could only run to Xie Yaoyao's side, looking at him with a fawning smile.

Xie Yaoyao's display of intelligence during his fight with Yibeika had long since conquered her, and she felt that leaving brain work to Xie Yaoyao was perfectly fine.

"West, keep going west! But whether you can survive in the end depends on yourselves; I can only say that the west has the best chance."
