Splat, splat, splat~~~

Facing Qin Fang's group attack, these ordinary soldiers couldn't possibly withstand Qin Fang's powerful strength, and were immediately flung backward one by one.

Qin Fang's group attack skill comes along with a title, a skill that can be used once the title is equipped...

And the basic criterion for using it is facing more than two targets, which then qualifies as a group attack… This power is also Qin Fang's own strength.

Although applied to many people, this power gets weakened a lot, but it's not like completely dividing Qin Fang's strength into portions...

This degree of force isn't likely to kill, but it's sure sufficient to repel these people without issue!

Slash~~

Clearly unaware of how simple it would be to kill or drive away enemies, Qin Fang's timing in descending was so precise, his intention was solely to rescue.

With a sharp dagger during the descent, he instantly sliced through the rope binding Iron Head, immediately freeing him.

"Xiao Qin, is it you?"

Iron Head originally wore a somewhat dejected expression, not because of fear of death, but the embarrassment of falling into the hands of these inferior Anlang Government Army soldiers.

Yet at this moment, someone suddenly acted, and before he could react, he felt his hands loosen, he was saved...

Almost instinctively gazing towards the incoming person, he realized it was indeed his acquaintance, his team leader Tang Cheng's brother-in-law Qin Fang, and muttered in extreme surprise.

Qin Fang's sudden move startled Iron Head greatly; it seemed all too miraculous, Qin Fang charging forth alone like that...

"Brother Tietou, quit the chatter, grab your stuff..."

But Qin Fang clearly didn't have much time, and chatting at this moment was definitely not wise, so he immediately called out softly for Iron Head to regain composure, then tossed over a shadow.

Iron Head hesitated slightly, yet instinctively caught the shadow, discovering it was unexpectedly an MP5 submachine gun. Despite not knowing where Qin Fang hid it earlier, caught in the sudden turn of events, he didn't have time to ponder. Grabbing the gun, he cocked it repeatedly, aiming at the surrounding Anlang Government Army soldiers, firing in rapid bursts...

He'd suffered a lot before, mostly at the hands of these Anlang Government Army soldiers. Earlier he was tied hand and foot with no recourse, but now freed and armed, he wouldn't be courteous with these Anlang people…

Da, da, da~~

The MP5, known for its close-range killing prowess, with such a sweep instantly dispatched the remaining Anlang Government Army soldiers aiming to counter Qin Fang.

Those left had mostly been killed by Qin Fang, others clutching their chests fell to the ground, clueless about what transpired...

Da, da, da~~~

However, Iron Head evidently wouldn't spare these men; he immediately followed up with continuous shooting, ensuring none of the remaining Anlang Government Army soldiers survived.

But Qin Fang saw the threats were mostly eliminated, so he stood aside with cold eyes, abstaining from slaughtering the Anlang Government Army soldiers...

He couldn't do otherwise, not that he refused to kill, but doing so would only increase his Sin Points—those Justice Points are hard-earned and squandering them here seemed unworthy, so he left it all to Iron Head...

After all, being a soldier, especially a special forces soldier, executing special missions means killing is perfectly justified!

Of course, encountering stronger enemies and getting killed is not unexpected either.

All this happened within a brief time span, altogether in just about thirty seconds, yet the situation reversed instantly.

Previously potent and overbearing Anlang Government Army, now turned to corpses on the ground, leaving no survivors… Qin Fang's Scouting Skill came into play here, easily spotting any feigned deaths.

"Brother Tietou, how's Brother Cheng and the others now?"

Once all this settled, Qin Fang immediately caught Iron Head to inquire.

His trip was for Tang Cheng, yet having wasted quite some time without a trace of Tang Cheng, how could he not be anxious?

"The brothers are still alright, hidden somewhere relatively safe, but those damn mercenaries are still searching, unsure how much longer they can hide! Just…"

Iron Head slightly caught his breath, relieving some of the stuffiness in his chest, then shared some situation details with Qin Fang, appearing temporarily manageable, yet not especially secure.

Indeed, the final "just" brought a turnabout, leaving Qin Fang slightly tense and vaguely sensing something amiss.

"Just what? Speak quickly..."

Qin Fang couldn't help but become anxious as well, his tone getting heavier as he urged.

"The captain, he..."

Iron Head didn't mind the change in Qin Fang's tone. He showed a difficult expression, even appearing somewhat worried. His speech was hesitant, as if it was hard to speak about.

"What happened to Brother Cheng exactly?"

The more Iron Head hesitated, the more Qin Fang felt something was wrong. Although Tang Cheng's name was still shining brightly on his friend's list, indicating he was still alive, it didn't mean nothing had happened to him.

"The captain is poisoned. According to Mouse, it's not just any common poison; it's a form of Southeast Asian sorcery..."

Knowing the past relationship between Qin Fang and Tang Cheng, Iron Head feared that Qin Fang would worry too much, but he still briefly explained the current situation to him.

"I broke out just to find a way to break the sorcery, but I didn't expect..."

The reason Iron Head was captured was that he left the safe zone and was discovered by a mercenary group searching the mountain.

He was bound to die; those mercenaries never intended to let him go. But it was a coincidence that he encountered a patrolling Anlang Government Army. He's not sure what was said, but they handed him over to the Anlang Government Army...

Then coincidentally, he met Qin Fang and was saved.

However, these things Qin Fang wouldn't care about, nor was he interested in knowing the details. Since all the Anlang Government Army people were dead, even if he wanted to explore the intrigue, he no longer had the opportunity.

Besides, something else more important attracted his attention and mind.

"Sorcery?"

Hearing the word, Qin Fang's expression slightly changed.

This thing is considered an ancient witchcraft, extremely sinister and comparable to the Miaojiang Gu Art, both being elusive forms of sorcery.

Witchcraft has been passed down from ancient times, with a very long history, much more ancient than the Thousand Skills mastered by Qin Fang...

However, witchcraft is too alluringly strange, and with continuous suppression over the years, most witchcraft has been lost, with only a rare few surviving.

The most famous ones are the Miaojiang Gu Art and the Southeast Asian sorcery...

Of course, areas like North and South America, and Africa also have remnants of similar strange sorcery, although it's unclear how it was passed there, it is indeed the case.

Qin Fang had already experienced the Miaojiang Gu Art firsthand. The bizarre and formidable power was truly horrifying. If it weren't for Little Dragon's protection, he would've fallen victim to it long ago.

The Gu Art mainly revolves around Gu Insects, and without them, it's nothing special.

But the truly terrifying part lies in these extremely strange Gu Insects.

These Gu Insects are venomous creatures, and once inside the human body, they are like maggots clinging to bones. Unless you know how to expel them, they remain inside, continuously destroying every organ of the human body... until the individual dies.

Some Gu Insects even consume the corpse, hatching more and more powerful Gu Insects...

Some Gu Insects seem almost spiritual, capable of understanding the caster's intent and possessing strange skills like mind control and creating illusions...

In short, it is absolutely terrifying and extremely sinister witchcraft!

Sorcery and Gu Art are both notorious in Southeast Asia, both being powerful and extremely wicked witchcraft. It's not about which is stronger; it depends on the practitioner's power.

Qin Fang doesn't know much about sorcery, but after experiencing Gu Art, he specifically looked up some related information and records and gained some understanding of sorcery.

Sorcery is somewhat similar to Gu Art. Judging from the steps, it mainly consists of "Sorcery" and "Head."

"Sorcery" refers to the spells or Gu Poison methods used in the casting.

"Head" refers to the individual being cast upon, including the "personal connection grasp" of the individual (such as the individual's birth date, Five Elements destiny, name, location, commonly used items, related physical items like hair or nails).

Tang Cheng led a team across the border from Dragon Country, a decision made at the last minute, so it shouldn't have been anticipated or known by the enemy in advance.

However, Tang Cheng still fell victim to sorcery, indicating it likely wasn't the "head" that's the problem, but rather the "sorcery."

That means the sorcery Tang Cheng fell victim to was probably due to the caster using a highly malicious Gu Poison on Qin Fang at an extremely concealed moment, which is quite similar to the Miaojiang Gu Art.
