<h4>Chapter 25: A Sried Worker among Gene Fighters</h4>


    <h4><strong>Trantor: </strong>Lordbluefire </h4>


    Hearing this, the two kobolds in front of Lu Yuan immediately felt tense.


    At this moment, Lu Yuan’s feetnded on the ground as he dragged his sword along. He then rushed at the two kobolds.


    As his speed was extremely quick, he arrived in front of the two kobolds in the blink of an eye. Both his hands grabbed his sword hilt tightly, and he exerted force with his entire body, executing the Military Swordy and shing his sword at the weaker kobold.


    The muscr kobold with the battle-ax was after all someone who had recorded and engraved a gene. Although the gene he had obtained was just amon-grade gene, his strength was much greaterpared to gene fighters who had not recorded or engraved a gene yet.


    Hence, one would naturally choose to squeeze the softer persimmon.


    Lu Yuan’s ck sword transformed into a faint shadow that shed at the sword-wielding kobold. The sword wind that was generated from it caused the kobold’s fur to be disheveled.


    As a result, the eyes of the sword-wielding kobold violently narrowed as a look of terror could be seen on his face.


    “Captain! Save me!”


    “B*stard, you dare?!”


    The muscr kobold roared in rage. He raised his ax again and chopped at Lu Yuan.


    White light could be seen flowing around the ax as Heavy Strike was activated once more.


    Upon facing this battle technique, Lu Yuan naturally didn’t dare to use his body to block it head-on.


    Although the defensive prowess of the ckiron Body was very strong, blocking this attack head-on would surely result in injuries.


    ......


    He naturally didn’t want to be injured in such a ce. After all, he had no recovery medicine in his hands.


    Hence, he stepped to the left and right, turning his body as he retracted the sword and evaded the attack from the battle-ax. At the same time, his body arced to a certain degree and he spun around while unleashing a horizontal sh.


    Although the attacking prowess of the battle-ax was high, if one wanted topare agility, it was naturally inferior to a sword.


    At the instant the battle-axnded on the ground, Lu Yuan’s sword had shed toward the sword-wielding kobold.


    However, because of the slight dy, the sword-wielding kobold had enough time to react.


    His face was malevolent. He gritted his teeth and swung his sword in an attempt to block.


    The two longswords collided.


    Keng!!!


    An ear-splitting sound of collision rang out. After that, the sword-wielding kobold’s expression changed as he coughed out a mouthful of blood. His body was directly sent flying under the powerful impact.


    The muscr kobold had a grim look on his face. He lifted his battle-ax again and chopped at Lu Yuan.


    Lu Yuan’s figure moved around and easily avoided the attack. He then erupted forth in a burst and sprinted toward the injured sword-wielding kobold.


    Woosh~


    At this moment, the sound of something breaking the air rang out. Lu Yuan saw an arrow being fired at him.


    This was none other than the attack from the female kobold who was standing far away.


    Sadly, the attacking prowess of her arrows wasn’t considered strong to Lu Yuan.


    He stretched out his hand and caught the arrow before exerting force to snap it in twain.


    The female kobold had her eyes wide open as though she didn’t dare to believe what she just saw.


    Lu Yuan didn’t pause. At the same time as he caught the arrow, his body already arrived at the side of the sword-wielding kobold.


    “Ah, ah, ah!”


    The sword-wielding kobold howled in rage, shing out with his sword. On the other hand, Lu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged and he aimed a kick at the kobold’s wrist.


    Ka Ka…


    The wrist of the sword-wielding kobold shattered and his sword flew away.


    A trace of fear could be seen flickering in his eyes. At the next moment, an inky-ck sword light arced past.


    As a result, fresh blood sprayed forth from the sword-wielding kobold’s neck. The light in his eyes faded and his body heavily slumped onto the ground after trembling a little.


    Hu!


    As the sound of the wind breaking rang out from behind Lu Yuan, he stomped the ground with both his feet and traveled half a meter forward.


    The battle-ax brushed past his body and mmed into the ground. The ax prated the ground deeply, causing shattered tones to fly around.


    “You ought to die!”


    The muscr kobold roared in rage and wanted to lift his ax again for another chop.


    But at this moment, Lu Yuan used one of his feet to step on the battle-ax.


    As a result, the muscr kobold widened his eyes as shock filled his heart.


    “Oh no!”


    He decisively gave up the ax and aimed a heavy kick at Lu Yuan.


    However, Lu Yuan had trained the Military Fist to a rtively proficient level, so he instinctively responded with a palm strike that brushed the kobold’s leg away. His longsword then shed out at the kobold’s leg.


    A deep wound appeared, causing the muscr kobold’s face to turn white.


    The intense pain made the kobold stumble, so Lu Yuan punched out with his left hand. The blow was so forceful that gusts of wind were generated, and the punchnded right on the muscr kobold’s face.


    Ka…


    The kobold’s face contorted under the might of the heavy punch, and fresh blood spurted out.


    The immense might caused the muscr kobold to fall into a daze.


    And when he recovered, a sword light had cut his throat.


    Thus, he could only clutch his throat as blood seeped out from the gaps in between his fingers.


    “J…just you wait! There will be people taking revenge for us!”


    Lu Yuan lifted his brows. He then aimed a kick at the muscr kobold’s chest.


    Boom!


    The kobold’s body flew back by four to five meters before itnded heavily on the ground.


    Lu Yuan nced at the corpse on the ground and murmured.


    “I don’t know about revenge. In any case, you are already dead.”


    There were two more.


    Lu Yuan turned and stared in the direction of the female kobold archer.


    After that, he was startled. This was because he only saw the fleeing back of the female kobold. She had reached the tunnel they entered from.


    Only now did he discover that this female kobold had engraved and recorded a gene.


    However, from her appearance, her gene should be a speed-type one.


    Her running speed was extremely quick, even somewhat faster than his.


    Hence, he couldn’t chase her even if he wanted to.


    Lu Yuan: “...”


    He turned his head and looked at the kobold who was still blocking the ck-rune graystone beetle. A hint of sympathy shed in his eyes.


    Wasn’t this person a little too pitiful?


    Hisrades simply abandoned him.


    At this moment, Bali was still blocking the attacks from the ck-rune graystone beetle.


    The usage of battle techniques required one to consume their spirit energy, and over half of his spirit qi had been consumed, so he grew somewhat anxious as he roared in anger.


    “Oi, are you done yet? It is just a human, have you guys not settled him yet?”


    As he spoke, he also turned his head in their direction.


    After that, Bali saw the corpses of the three kobolds on the ground, as well as Lu Yuan who was staring at him with pity.


    Bali: “???”


    His entire person was stunned and he fell into a daze.


    However, the ck-rune graystone beetle naturally wouldn’t give Bali any chance to react. Seeing that he started, it immediately unleashed a w attack.


    The w shed at Bali’s waist. As a result, his Stoneskin shattered and he received a heavy attack. His countenance paled as he continuously retreated.


    He then came to his senses and quickly used his shield to block the excited ck-rune graystone beetle’s next w attack. At the same time, he couldn’t help but cry out.


    “Captain?!”


    He started to turn and looked for his remaining party mate, which was the archer.


    However, even after looking for a long time, he couldn’t find any traces of her.


    The continuous distraction caused Bali to make mistakes in his defenses. He was struck a few more times by the ck-rune graystone beetle’s attacks.


    His expression turned pale as sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.


    On the other hand, Lu Yuan smiled radiantly and walked over.


    “Don’t worry, all three of yourrades have died. The one remaining fled, so it will be your turn next.”


    Bali: “...”


    Cold sweat drenched his back. He blocked an attack from the ck-rune graystone beetle as he looked at Lu Yuan.


    “Damnable human! You actually dared to kill my captain and teammates? We are a gene fighter team from the Vimy Corporation, and our team is responsible for apanying the Third Missy to train. You actually dared to attack us?! Our corporation will definitely not spare you!”


    When Lu Yuan heard this, he furrowed his brows slightly.


    “Gene fighters from corporations? Third Missy? The one who ran away earlier?”


    He couldn’t help but click his tongue, feeling somewhat speechless.


    He didn’t expect that he would run into people from corporations.


    Where there were people, there would always bepetition over benefits.


    As the Land of Origins contained countless treasures, the major ns and corporations of the various races in the universe would naturally want a slice of this cake.


    Hence, they would sign contracts with gene fighters and get the gene fighters to explore the Land of Origins to excavate treasures.


    Everyrge corporation and major n would establish a force that belonged to them in the Land of Origins.


    This was the same even for humans from the Great Revtion.


    Lu Yuan had long since seen the recruitment notice posted by the Xili City’s Nine Lakes Corporation on the battleweb.


    The recruitment conditions were very good. Even gene fighters who just awakened would be able to get tens of thousands or even up to millions of starting funds. If your talent was high, they might even send you an elite-grade extraordinary gene as a gift.


    However, every reward had a price attached to it.


    Gene fighters who joined the Nine Lakes Corporation would have to at least work for 30 years for the corporation.


    Truthfully speaking, when he had just awakened, someone already contacted him through a call.


    Evidently, the various powers were paying attention to the awakening ceremony.


    However, Lu Yuan only awakened during his third year, so the others felt that his potential wasn’t great. Hence, those who contacted him belonged to smallpanies and small ns.


    Besides, the conditions they offered were very ordinary. The starting funds they were willing to give were only $10,000.


    Lu Yuan naturally rejected them without a second thought.


    What a joke, given his talent in addition to the evolution cube, did he need to join these corporations and work as a ve for them?


    In his previous life, he was someone who ‘enjoyed’ the work schedule forced upon sried workers. Therefore, in this life, even if you threatened to beat him to death, he no longer wanted to be a sried worker!


    Actually, not only therge ns and major corporations, but there were also various government units and non-official units establishing their own forces in the Land of Origins.


    In the Land of Origins, gene fighters belonging to the various powers weren’t few in number.


    In fact, one might even say that independent gene fighters were the odd ones out. To independent gene fighters, it was pretty troublesome if they ran into gene fighters from other powers.


    If they offended one, they might offend the entire nest.


    Evidently, Lu Yuan had offended one now.


    Moreover, the person he offended was the Third Missy of a corporation?


    This caused Lu Yuan to have a little headache.


    Let’s hope that the female kobold could be more magnanimous. At the very least, he didn’t sh her, right?


    Just treat it as an adventure and everything would pass with a smile.


    As for the guard-type kobold fighter before him, Lu Yuan looked at him and revealed a radiant smile.


    “No matter what happens to me in the future, you would have died.”


    Lu Yuan rushed at him and decisively shed out his sword.


    At this moment, Bali was contending against the ck-rune graystone beetle’s attacks, while Lu Yuan didn’t care for integrity and attacked him from his back. Bali only had time to widen his eyes as the back of his neck was shed by Lu Yuan.


    When he died, resentment could still be seen in his eyes. He didn’t die a peaceful death.
