Chapter 21

(Congratulations to 'Feng Die Hua Qi Ming' for becoming the Overlord of this book!)

After an unknown amount of time, the noisy alley finally returned to silence.

Standing amidst the piles of Kaban corpses, Fang Li stood there, shaking off the blood droplets from his dagger and adjusting his breathing.

"Finally won..."

It was too difficult.

Although things went smoothly at first, it wasn't long before the Kaban trapped behind began to transform into spiders, clinging to the walls and attacking Fang Li like lizards.

To deal with these Kaban falling from the sky, Fang Li had to put in a lot of effort.

If it weren't for the limited space of the alley and the fact that many Kaban had already lost their arms or been killed by Fang Li, he wouldn't be standing there unscathed.

"With my current strength, even with some tricks, I can only achieve this much."

Fang Li was somewhat displeased.

"I need to improve my strength quickly."

The three elements of strength for a Main God Messenger are attributes, skills, and equipment.

Currently, apart from a natural talent in skills, Fang Li's attributes are quite poor, and his equipment is just a plain dagger with no enhancements.

If it weren't for the Dead Apostle Ancestor's eyes, even with some tricks, Fang Li would at most survive the Kaban's attacks, but there would be no chance of counter-killing them.

So, at present, Fang Li's strength is still too weak, and he hasn't yet surpassed the level of an ordinary person.

However, as a new Main God Messenger just entering the Main God Space, Fang Li's performance is actually quite good.

"Moreover, the more I kill, the more proficient I become in the methods of killing."

Kuizai Kichijō said that Fang Li had never practiced any martial arts.

This is true.

However, in terms of combat, Fang Li, with his self-taught killing methods, can actually match Kuizai Kichijō's sword skills.

Of course, it's just the methods of killing; Fang Li still lacks many things.

For example, defense.

For example, evasion.

Fang Li is almost clueless about these techniques.

In terms of evasion, Fang Li can rely on his higher AGI (Agility) compared to ordinary people, darting around.

In terms of defense, Fang Li is truly clueless except for instinctive blocking.

"I need to plan carefully from now on."

During this period of thought, Fang Li's physical strength had already recovered by a large margin.

So, Fang Li shifted his attention to his gains.

This time, by killing sixteen Kaban, Fang Li earned 1600 exchange points.

Adding this to his previous accumulated points, Fang Li now has a total of 7500 exchange points.

For a new Main God Messenger just entering the Main God Space, achieving this level is not unprecedented, but it is certainly rare.

After all, in the Main God Space, more than 90% of new Main God Messengers, after experiencing the initial副本 world, have gains that are less than half of Fang Li's.

This is even without considering those who have died.

Moreover, these gains are only after returning to the Main God Space and receiving rewards based on the completion of the main mission.

Fang Li has not yet returned to the Main God Space and has not yet received the rewards for the main mission.

Once the rewards for the main mission are calculated, Fang Li's gains will only increase, and there is no way they will decrease.

At that time, Fang Li will definitely be considered to have made a huge profit.

Naturally, these exchange points must be converted into strength.

"If there's a chance, I need to kill more Kaban. Every exchange point must be earned."

Leaving these words, Fang Li turned around, preparing to leave.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Wow~~ You're pretty good, aren't you?"

The sudden voice made Fang Li's eyes narrow, and he forcefully lifted his head to look at the source of the sound.

Then, Fang Li was stunned.

"Whoosh——!"

A sudden gust of wind blew from afar, passing over the rooftops of the houses.

On the roof of a house beside the narrow alley, a girl stood facing the wind, looking down at Fang Li from a height, her clothes fluttering in the wind.

The girl had shoulder-length black hair as dark as ink.

She wore a red outfit with white and black accents, clearly designed for ease of movement, like a practice uniform.

Around her neck, a blue ribbon-like chain was tied into a bow, not at all detracting from her cuteness and beauty.

For a moment, Fang Li even mistook her for a goddess.

The girl's posture, standing against the silver moon and the night sky, was so beautiful that it could make any man's eyes widen.

Fang Li, however, did not have his eyes widen.

This was because the girl, with her amber eyes looking down at him, was someone Fang Li recognized.

——Mumei.

This is the girl's name.

At least, this is her current name.

And this name, in "Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress," is only possessed by the original female protagonist.

Yes.

The girl in front of him is the original female protagonist.

And she is not an ordinary protagonist.

"You..." Fang Li spoke with some uncertainty.

"What? Scared?" Mumei tilted her head, speaking in an innocent tone, "Don't worry, I'm not a Kaban, I won't eat you."

Hearing this, Fang Li felt a mix of emotions in his heart.

Of course, I know you're not a Kaban.

But in a certain sense, you are as strong as, if not stronger than, a Kaban.

Even in terms of existence, it's the same.

Without knowing what Fang Li was thinking, Mumei directly leaped down from the roof, landing lightly in front of Fang Li, and raised her head, bringing her doll-like face close to Fang Li's.

"——!"

The sudden closeness of her overly cute and delicate face made Fang Li involuntarily take a step back.

Ignoring Fang Li's surprise, Mumei curiously looked at Fang Li's face, then shifted her gaze to the dagger in Fang Li's hand, pointing at it and saying,

"Hey, can I see your weapon?"

"Weapon?" Fang Li was surprised. "Why?"

"Just let me see it," Mumei said without explanation, "Don't worry, I have my own weapon, I won't steal yours."

Without waiting for Fang Li's response, Mumei suddenly reached out and took the dagger from Fang Li's hand.
