I have an eye of truth

The shadow monsters were quite fast, arriving at their positions in mere moments.

These people never imagined anyone would possess such bizarre abilities. Even in the Layered World, not everyone has special abilities like these, and most ability users possess abilities of little practical use.

The shadows beneath their feet suddenly stirred, then swelled and transformed into monsters, startling them greatly as they rose.

The humanoid shadow wielded its long blade, instantly inflicting wounds upon several individuals.

"Damn it, what is this thing?"

"It seems like a shadow beast, yet different. Were we ambushed by some kind of monster?"

Those people abruptly halted, their attacks on Wang Yang's side weakening.

Not only were they attacked, but their leader was as well, simultaneously assaulted by two shadow monsters. Had Wang Yang not held back some of his shadow monsters, they would have been utterly terrified.

"The enemy leader is strong, definitely possessing the strength of a formal martial artist," Wang Yang observed, noticing the leader's incredibly swift reaction, instantly detecting the threat and delivering a punch.

That white battle aura instantly tore his two shadow monsters to shreds.

At that moment, He Yingxue, who had been paying attention to the outside, felt a sense of unease, not understanding the situation.

But the others were different; they were all attacked by shadow monsters, completely caught off guard.

"As expected, the attack power of these shadows has greatly improved, but they are still a bit weak." The shadow monsters' current combat strength is roughly equivalent to that of a trained ordinary person.

The power of the Tang blade in their hands is slightly weaker than a real Tang blade, after all, they are made of shadows.

Among those previously attacked, those struck in the throat clutched their throats and collapsed, dying on the spot.

Those with their arms attacked had large portions of their arms sliced off, but the attack was not fatal, failing to sever the limb completely. This was not because the arm could not be cut, but because the clothing itself offered some degree of protection.

As for those who attacked the armor, there was no effect. Although shadow monsters themselves have a special composition, the damage they inflict during attacks is still physical, without any other special effects.

Gunshots rang out around them, and those attacking him were thrown into chaos.

"Everyone, be careful! These shadow monsters are usually immune to attacks, only becoming vulnerable when they attack themselves," a voice suddenly called out. Wang Yang narrowed his eyes, realizing the speaker was a woman. This woman seemed to be the second-in-command of the group, held in high regard by the others.

Her mind is truly sharp, immediately recognizing the similarity between these things and the shadow beasts' abilities once she realized they were shadows. Even the method of inflicting damage is the same: the shadow monsters become tangible the moment they attack.

At this time, shadow monsters can be killed by conventional attacks. Otherwise, only battle aura or special energy attacks can harm these monsters. Flames blazed around the woman, preventing the shadow monsters from approaching. But while the shadow monsters couldn't, he was different.

Sensing the cessation of gunfire around him, Wang Yang suddenly peeked out, using the position provided by the shadows.

Raising the sniper rifle in his hand, he fired three bullets directly.

The enemy leader suddenly saw the head of the woman who had been speaking explode not far away, and his eyes immediately turned red.

"No! Damn bastards, you're courting death!" The man took off running towards Wang Yang.

Wang Yang coldly said, "You started this, so you deserve to die."

Although he didn't know the relationship between the two, if this guy dared to charge over, he would let him know the difference in strength. Although both were formal martial artists, and that guy had advanced longer ago, there was still a difference in strength.

However, before Wang Yang could act, a streak of azure light flashed through the air.

It turned out that He Yingxue, who had been waiting for the right opportunity, had made her move. With a flash of sword light, Head Liu wanted to resist, but the flying sword was too fast, far beyond his ability to react.

The light flashed and disappeared. Head Liu lowered his head, looking at the large hole in his chest, seemingly wanting to say something, but nothing came out.

"Head Liu! Damn it, these two are formal professionals, let's go!" The remaining people's expressions changed. If their boss could be killed so easily, they were even less of a match.

"Don't let them go, leave them all here," He Yingxue suddenly said.

So ruthless, Wang Yang thought with a hint of surprise. But then he thought of these people's behavior, wanting to kill him, and if they couldn't win, they wanted to run away. There was no such easy way out.

Wang Yang didn't use his shadows, but directly raised the sniper rifle in his hand, and after a series of gunshots, he hit one person each time. As a result, these people didn't run far before they all died there.

"Can you determine where these people came from?"

Wang Yang looked at the dead people on the ground, but thought of the Resistance organization that had wanted him to join before.

Could it be that those people didn't succeed last time, so they came to make trouble again?

"Who else could they be, just some wanderers. There are always scumbags among these people. On the surface, they are adventure teams, but in reality, they are capable of all kinds of evil, but it is generally rare for them to be discovered. Many adventure teams are killed by these people, so you must be careful when operating outside."

Although He Yingxue said this without any expression, she also felt a wave of fear in her heart.

Wang Yang was obviously inexperienced, but wasn't she the same? Both of them were venturing out for the first time. Where would this kind of adventure team with a bad reputation dare to operate near the army? It was also the first time He Yingxue had encountered them.

"Don't worry, I have already recorded what happened just now, and I will report it directly later."

Wang Yang came back to his senses, then nodded. What he was worried about was not this. He was frightened by the chaos in the Layered World. He had only been on the fifth floor for a few days, and he had been attacked twice.

Once was an organized attack, and this time it was simply random, and they just started fighting.

The chaos of the Layered World gave Wang Yang a good lesson.

"Let's go, don't waste time, we still have a lot of spoils to collect."

He Yingxue drove back again. The corpses of the thorn ghosts they killed before were still on the road, and now they were going back to collect the spoils. Wang Yang sighed and returned to the car.

As for the previous shadow monsters, although He Yingxue was a little surprised, she didn't ask Wang Yang anything.
