Chapter 2 Superpowers, Infinite Strength
Daqian Dynasty.
The dynasty had been at its peak for three hundred and seventy-six years.
Now, it is already too late.
There are many powerful families, and corruption is breeding ground.
The dragon robes worn by officials from all over the country had a bird on the left and a beast on the right, and were regarded as beasts by the people.
They use every possible means to squeeze the people's money, and their actions are even worse.
In recent years, people have been living in poverty and have been hit by snow disasters.
Even in a good year, there would be very little left from the cultivated land after paying taxes.
Now, due to the snow disaster, the harvest is less than half of previous years.
However, the government will not collect even a single grain less of the grain that must be handed over.
If they couldn't pay, they would use their land as collateral.
If the land is not enough to pay off the debt, we will use the old hens that lay eggs at home, and even take away the hoe you use to dig the ground.
The people no longer had a grain of rice to survive the winter, and even after digging up all the grass roots under the snow, they still could not fill their stomachs.
Towns, villages and counties were filled with people who had starved to death, and their corpses had to be thrown into the wasteland by the hungry farmers themselves.
Even if there were kindhearted merchants willing to provide disaster relief and take out grain to make rice porridge and distribute it to the hungry people, it would only be a drop in the bucket.
In many places, people even resorted to cannibalism.
In this world, everyone who is alive is trying hard to live.
The hungry people turned into rioters, killed the white snake and started an uprising. They raised sharpened sticks and hoes and attacked the town and county government offices.
They killed officials and wealthy families, took out their gold, silver, rice and grain, and distributed them to the refugees who had lost their land and were equally hungry, thus forming an army of rebels.
The world spun around and the blue light that blocked the vision dissipated.
Lu Yuan stared with wide eyes at the chaotic scene in front of him, and before he could yell "Fuck!"
A flash of cold light pierced straight towards his head.
The strong wind was blowing and the threat of death made Lu Yuan's adrenaline surge.
He subconsciously tilted his head and avoided the fatal blow.
But his body seemed extremely weak now, and the speed at which his head turned away slowed down a lot. A cold light flashed across his face, and his cheeks felt hot, as if there were earthworms crawling on his face.
Lu Yuan knew that his face had been pierced by the spear.
Although he had not yet reacted as to why the old woman's palm had turned into a spear, the situation at the moment did not allow him to think too much.
He fell to the ground, supported himself with his hands and tried to back away.
That person! He obviously wants to kill him!
Is this the first world that the panel allows you to enter?
Just give me this? ?
As soon as I got here, I was chased. This is even worse than screwing screws before!
After the crisis of death, he remembered that he was brought to this first world by an external panel because he had just turned eighteen.
There is a vast expanse of white snow before my eyes.
Everywhere there were shouts of battle and the howlings of those being hacked and killed.
what is this?
Two armies fighting?
But the gap is too big!
He was wearing a cotton-padded jacket that was so dirty that it was almost impossible to tell its original color. The jacket could not cover his entire body, and the rows of ribs on his chest were exposed through the skin, like an achievement that could only be achieved by someone with anorexia.
The areas covered by the cotton-padded jacket were covered with wounds, and the yellow mud-like cotton was picked apart, stained with blood.
After the adrenaline went down, Lu Yuan now felt his body. Every part of his body was in pain. If it weren't for his instinct to survive, he would have wanted to faint.
No wonder I came into this world.
Judging from the situation, it is likely that the original body was already frail and had died once due to severe injuries.
"Buzz!" The soldier in leather armor stabbed again with the spear.
“Ah~!!”.
There was a loud shout from the side, and a thin man wearing an ill-fitting, tattered cotton coat and covered in blood, accelerated and slammed into the soldier in leather armor.
The soldier was moving forward, but was knocked off balance and fell to the ground with a bang.
The thin man took advantage of the opponent's fall, grasped the wooden stick in both hands, and stabbed it downwards with force.
The sharpened wooden stick pierced his leather armor, which had been stabbed to pieces before, with a "puff" sound, and pierced his chest.
The wooden stick completely pierced through the leather armor, but although it pierced into the soldier's chest through the thick clothes, it seemed to be stuck on the ribs and did not pierce the opponent's heart.
The soldier did not drop the spear in his hand. He thrust the spear out with one hand, piercing the stomach of the rioter who was holding the wooden stick and trying to continue poking it hard, then pulled it out with a "pop".
The strength of the wooden stick was lost in an instant. The thin man's eyes widened and he covered his stomach with both hands, as if trying to stuff back what was about to flow out of his stomach.
But the bright red blood could not stop flowing out, and then the contents of his stomach slid out, and with a "bang", he fell to the ground.
His body fell to the ground, and blood spurted out due to the force of the fall, splashing onto Lu Yuan's face as he was still supporting himself on the ground with his hands and unable to get up.
The warm, even boiling blood made Lu Yuan shudder, and he rolled over on the ground and got up.
He picked up the sharpened wooden stick at hand, which had become a little dull due to too many attacks.
Holding the wooden stick in both hands, he took a defensive stance and stared at the soldier in leather armor.
Now he finally understood his situation.
Either you die or I live!
The soldier in leather armor pulled out the wooden stick that had pierced his chest, tore a ball of cotton from the dead thin man's rotten cotton coat, stuffed it into his chest, and barely stopped the bleeding.
He stood up, holding the spear, looking at the body in front of him that was even thinner than the thin man on the ground, and the blunt wooden stick in his hand. He laughed and stabbed the other person's chest with the spear.
Lu Yuan looked at the spear whistling towards him, dodged to the side, then clamped the spear with his entire left arm, grabbed the wooden stick with his right arm, and stabbed it hard at the opponent's chest, which was bleeding and had stained the cotton red.
The soldier had been seriously injured before, and he had lost strength in many parts of his body. His chest was in great pain, and he could no longer avoid this attack.
He freed one hand and grabbed the stick that was thrusting at him.
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and thrust the stick forward fiercely. The soldier grabbed the stick and tried to deflect it.
One was seriously injured, and the other was extremely weak. For a while, the two of them were deadlocked in place, and neither could do anything to the other.
Veins bulged on both men's heads, but after a stalemate of more than ten breaths, Lu Yuan began to see stars, a buzzing in his ears, and a feeling of weakness came over him, as if he was about to collapse at any time.
The strength in my hands was unconsciously reduced a little.
The wooden stick was pushed aside, and he couldn't even hold the spear on his left arm, so it was about to be pulled out by the opponent.
There was a look of cruelty on the soldier's face.
The rioters, who were starving and had not even had enough food for the entire day, actually attempted to capture Qingping County and steal its food.
Even though he was seriously injured, his full body still gave him enough strength to last.
The opponent has an empty stomach and is at the end of his strength. When he draws out his spear, he will poke a hole in his stomach. Then, we will be able to see how many straws are in this rioter's stomach!
The roaring sound in Lu Yuan's ears became louder and louder. His body was like a tattered boat on the waves, constantly bearing the force of the waves and ready to be submerged at any time.
At this moment, a deep blue light flashed before my eyes.
[Superpower: Infinite Strength, Strength +10]
Lu Yuan only felt an unbearable hunger in his abdomen, which made him wake up instantly. He exerted force with his left arm to clamp the spear that was about to be pulled out.
He grabbed the stick with his right hand, pressed it down as it deviated from its direction, aimed it at the shocked soldier's chest, and stabbed it hard with all his strength.
“Puff~!”.
The sharpened wooden stick pierced into the opponent's chest, slid in through the ribs, and pierced the opponent's beating heart.
