During the few breaths when most people were stunned, the mysterious figure in gray armor had already walked in from the periphery.
That's right, like taking a stroll.
The figure only needed to wave the weapon in their hand, and all the Gray Dwarf soldiers blocking the way were like paper, cleaved in two with a single strike.
Ya La'er's whole body trembled subconsciously. She felt the power and Terror generated by the other party's casual swing of the sword.
It was like the change in aura when facing her grandfather's anger as a child! In Ya La'er's vision, the gray-armored figure seemed to exude an indescribable aura of Terror.
So strong!
She felt that even if she stood in front of the figure, she would probably be cut in half with a single sword like these Gray Dwarf soldiers.
"I'm going to kill you!!"
The Gray Dwarf General saw a large number of his clansmen die, his eyes immediately turned blood red, and he roared as he charged towards the gray-armored figure.
"Meteor Strike!"
While running, the Gray Dwarf General swung the meteor hammer in his hand, smashing it heavily towards the gray-armored figure.
Bang! Bang! The meteor hammer was split into two sections by the gray-armored figure's sword. The heavy hammer separated in mid-air and smashed into the sand on both sides, making a muffled sound.
The gray-armored figure raised their head slightly, as if only then did it attract their attention.
"Split it?" The Gray Dwarf General stood there with a blank expression, his face full of disbelief.
Whoosh! A shadow enveloped the Gray Dwarf General, and then, the greatsword slashed down.
Thump—
Under Ya La'er's stunned gaze, the Gray Dwarf General, just like the ordinary Gray Dwarf soldiers, was split in half with a single sword.
The Rune Armor on his body, which could even defend against her attacks, didn't seem to provide any defensive effect at all.
"Monster!"
"Monster!"
With the death of the Gray Dwarf General, a terrifying atmosphere spread, and all the Gray Dwarf soldiers screamed and scattered in all directions.
Ya La'er hadn't shown any Fear on her face even in the desperate situation just now, but at this moment, panic appeared in her silver pupils.
She hurriedly returned to the remaining human soldiers, wanting to escape together, but the next moment, Ya La'er extinguished this thought.
She saw!
The gray-armored figure's body only swayed slightly, and then instantly disappeared from the spot, appearing in front of those fleeing Gray Dwarf soldiers like afterimages.
Only screams remained on the entire battlefield.
"Can't escape!"
Ya La'er saw the speed displayed by the other party, turned around to look at her injured clansmen behind her, and knew that apart from herself, probably no one could escape.
"Go, Ya La'er."
"...!"
"We'll stop him!"
The clansmen, covered in scars, immediately ran over, their voices filled with panic and determination as they urged Ya La'er to leave.
"It's not bad to die together, everyone."
Ya La'er swept her gaze across the anxious faces in front of her, and instead revealed a somewhat stiff smile.
She wasn't good at smiling.
Soon.
Ya La'er realized that the other party only seemed to attack the Gray Dwarfs, and had no intention of attacking them.
The screams gradually stopped, and all the Dwarf soldiers were slaughtered by that terrifying gray figure.
"Swoosh!"
The Hawk floating in the air then landed, standing on the shoulder of the gray-armored figure.
The gray-armored figure turned around and looked at Ya La'er and her group.
The air became eerily silent at that moment!
The blood of the Gray Dwarfs had already dyed the beach red, with scattered corpses and severed limbs and broken internal organs everywhere.
The rich, bloody smell constantly assaulted the senses of everyone present. Even Ya La'er's group, who had experienced many battles, couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines at the sight.
The difference was too great! "Who are you? Why are you helping us?" Ya La'er's voice trembled as she pursed her lips and spoke loudly.
The gray-armored figure's strength was simply too great. Nearly five hundred Gray Dwarf soldiers had been slaughtered by him alone. If he wanted to kill them, they would probably already be dead!
In this "Despair Valley," there was no such thing as help without a reason.
The gray-armored figure, carrying a blood-stained, heavy greatsword, walked towards them, causing everyone's hearts to tighten.
Buzz—
A slight vibration came from the figure.
The next moment.
The armor that covered the gray-armored figure's entire body miraculously transformed into a cloud of gray mist and was absorbed into his body.
A young man with black hair, a gentle face, and an age similar to Ya La'er's, wearing exquisite black clothes that none of them had ever seen or could describe, appeared before all the humans.
"I am human. I don't need a reason to help my own kind."
Tang Zheng's eyes were gentle as he looked at these humans who lived here, their faces sallow and thin.
Their hair colors varied, but most were silver. All of them had wheat-colored skin. These humans shouldn't be too old, estimated to be around 20 years old.
If it weren't for the battle with the Gray Dwarfs just now, Tang Zheng would have thought this human army was a group of refugees.
They didn't even have decent armor or weapons. Only the silver-haired girl in front looked somewhat like an ordinary soldier from a human country.
Ya La'er's dry lips parted, and her silver pupils looked at Tang Zheng's face in disbelief.
Not only Ya La'er, but the other human members also looked at Tang Zheng in shock. However, everyone quickly fell silent again.
"Respected strong one."
"Thank you for your assistance. We humans have only a few people in this 'Despair Valley'."
Ya La'er planted the spear in her hand in the desert, raised her arms, placed them on her chest, and bowed deeply to Tang Zheng, expressing her gratitude: "Your jest is our honor."
The valley, with its various threats and difficult living conditions, was a world for the strong and powerful races, while they humans were one of the weakest races in this valley.
If it hadn't been for her grandfather stepping into the Hero Domain and capturing one of the three major Oasis, they humans would probably have been extinct long ago in this harsh living environment of the valley.
Seeing that these people didn't believe he was human.
Tang Zheng was stunned for a moment. This was a situation he hadn't expected at all.
"Do you think I would pretend to be human if I were another race?" Tang Zheng chuckled and said lightly.
"Scree!"
The Hawk standing on his shoulder also let out a sharp cry.
This was naturally the Evil Spirit Dog in Disguise.
After all, he knew too little about the situation in this mysterious area, so Tang Zheng had the Evil Spirit Dog disguise itself slightly before rushing over.
He originally wanted to use Magic, but after thinking about it, using the abilities of a Warrior might be easier to get close to the humans in this area.
Ya La'er blinked.
Indeed!
How could those proud, strong individuals of other races possibly disguise themselves as weak humans?
"You really are human?" Ya La'er's voice was a little dry, with a tremor in her tone.
"Of course." Tang Zheng nodded. "I am a traveler who suddenly appeared here due to unknown Magic."
Traveler? Magic?
Hearing these two completely incomprehensible words, the humans present wore blank expressions.
Only Ya La'er understood a little. She had once heard her grandfather mention that there were larger places beyond Despair Valley, and also miraculous Magic.
Perhaps her father also knew something.
The former Ya La'er didn't pay much attention to it. Those were all too distant matters. Their life in this valley was already difficult enough, and they simply didn't have time to consider other things.
"Can you save us?" Ya La'er took a step forward, her eyes red as she looked at Tang Zheng.
"Okay."
Tang Zheng nodded, "So can you tell me what's going on now?"
A moment later.
Tang Zheng finally had a basic understanding of the situation, which corresponded with the information obtained using All-Race Charm.
The silver-haired girl in front of him was not lying.
He raised his head.
Tang Zheng looked at the silver-haired girl's back, and the 50 or so human members, each of whom had injuries to varying degrees.
"Do you have water on you?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Yes, we do."
A young man of about 20 years old looked at Tang Zheng with some Fear, and nodded softly.
Tang Zheng's mind flickered, and five glass-bottled Alchemy Potions appeared on the ground: "Pour these Alchemy Potions into your water bags and mix them with water, drink half, and sprinkle the remaining half on your wounds."
After speaking.
Tang Zheng took out another Alchemy Potion and handed it to Ya La'er in front of him: "Drink it."
Everyone looked blankly at these crystal bottles that emitted a crystal clear light under the sunlight.
"What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and do as the Hero says."
Ya La'er didn't know why Tang Zheng was asking them to drink the liquid in these crystal bottles that looked like works of art, but she immediately issued an order and shouted loudly.
