The Talking Lady faced Xia Lei's ultimatum: a master-servant contract or a soul contract. Bound by circumstance and the threat of death, she reluctantly agreed to the soul contract, despite her pride and dislike for coercion. However, Xia Lei, still wary, produced a higher-grade soul contract, angering the Talking Lady. As the remaining demon monsters attacked, Xia Lei reassured the Talking Lady that she was more capable than she appeared.

"When the Doll transformed into an archer, the black leather shoes would turn white, and at the same time, the Apron would produce an enhanced Speed Candy, greatly increasing the consumer's agility for a duration of half an hour."

"When the Doll transformed into a mage, the black leather shoes would turn yellow, and at the same time, the Candy Apron would produce an enhanced Tenacity Candy, greatly increasing the consumer's defense for a duration of half an hour."

"When the Doll transformed into a knight, the black leather shoes would turn red, and at the same time, the Apron would produce an enhanced Power Candy, greatly increasing the consumer's strength for a duration of half an hour."

"Enhanced Candy and ordinary candy could be taken simultaneously, with the duration based on the Enhanced Candy, and the effects would stack."

This entire set, although it had no grade and each piece had few abilities, could still enhance combat power by directly boosting almost every ability. Combined with the twin sisters' characteristics, it was a remarkably fitting match.

Even Ye Zhongming, after he upgraded to become a top-tier craftsman, still praised this set of equipment as highly as when he first obtained it. If he had known that after he left, the Battle Contribution Badge, upgraded to purple-grade equipment, could upgrade this set again, this sentiment would likely have deepened even more.

Yatian and Yani's somewhat slender bodies stood before the three green-skinned monsters, the difference in their sizes creating a strong visual impact.

Yet, they were completely unafraid.

Yatian said to Yani, "Sister, you take the tallest one on the left."

The Golden Corpse Yani, although not nearly indistinguishable from humans like Red Hair, Talking Lady, or the Death King Tree, still had slightly rougher skin, flashes of red light occasionally in her eyes, and even in intelligence, she was far inferior to those top-tier beings.

However, she could basically understand the words of her younger sister and Ye Zhongming.

She looked towards the tallest green-skinned monster on the left. This action was somewhat slow, but the next moment, Yani moved. Her speed was so fast it was hard to grasp; she almost instantly arrived beside the green-skinned monster and threw a punch.

The green-skinned monster looked down at the tiny figure below, its eyes filled with anger.

Because the situation before had been too frustrating.

Originally, they had the advantage in the number of top-tier beings. Who knew these humans could handle it so effortlessly? Up until now, not only had they not achieved their goal, but they had also lost a companion.

And then there were these golden spots on their bodies, so damn annoying. Not only did they make them fall from the sky and nearly die from the impact, but they also slowed their movements.

But... they didn't just have speed; they also had strength.

The green-skinned monster viciously stomped down towards Yani below. For it, standing over five meters tall, Yani at only one hundred and sixty centimeters, was like an ant.

The height difference between them was roughly like Yao Ming facing a child over a year old.

Because of the golden spots, agility had indeed decreased significantly, but with the base stats still there, the green-skinned monster's stomping foot was still quite fast.

However, after stomping down, the green-skinned monster suddenly felt its body sway, but its foot just couldn't reach the ground.

Yani's fist was precisely propped against the sole of the green-skinned monster's foot.

Then, intense pain came, and the green-skinned monster instinctively lifted its foot, grimacing and showing its teeth.

But Yani leaped forward, her pretty little black leather shoe stepping on the top of the green-skinned monster's other foot.

A crisp bone-breaking sound echoed in the air.

The Golden Corpse, as a very unique life form, inherently had its characteristics. Although some adjectives used for a girl like Yani were not very nice, the fact was... thick-skinned, thick-bodied, and full of strength.

In Cloud Peak, apart from that freak Ye Zhongming, the most powerful in terms of strength was Sheng Yuan, an existence even stronger in strength than Yangos and other warbeasts. Next in line was probably Yani. When it came to comprehensive strength, the evil dragon was naturally much stronger than Yani, but if it wanted to compete in raw strength, it really couldn't.

Yani's one punch could withstand the green-skinned monster's stomping foot, so when she stepped on the monster's foot with twice the combined strength of her and Yatian, a bone fracture was nothing surprising.

I Can Tap Dance, this ability allowed the Golden Corpse's characteristics to be maximized, although the stepping area was a bit small...

The pained yelp of the green-skinned monster instantly escalated into a shriek. Its form lurched forward, intending to cradle the wounded spot. Had its other leg not been already airborne, yet to descend, it would have certainly pulled this one back.

Left unclaimed? Yani stomped on it once more.

The green-skinned monster's countenance shifted dramatically. Its claw, abandoning its attempt to reach its own limb, instead swiped directly at Yani.

With what seemed like a casual flick of her wrist, Yani deflected the claw to the side with a sharp 'smack'.

The green-skinned monster did possess inherent physical superiority, but this was relative. It meant that when compared to beings of the same tier, their physical attributes decidedly outclassed evolved beings and mutated lifeforms of a similar level.

However, this did not render their bodies absolutely invulnerable or unmatched. Certain life forms with comparable physical traits could contend with them, such as evolved beings like Yangos. Yani, it was clear, belonged in this category.

This single deflection sent the green-skinned monster stumbling, toppling unbalanced to its side.

On that flank, Yatian was confronting the remaining two green-skinned monsters, successfully isolating them into brief one-on-one encounters.

The green-skinned monster's fall granted Yani complete control of the situation. She leaped onto the area near its neck. Her black leather shoes, which she had somehow removed unnoticed, were now clutched in her hands.

Recognizing the enemy's sheer audacity, the green-skinned monster put up a desperate struggle. Its body, its claws, and even its severely injured leg thrashed in resistance.

Under typical circumstances, the green-skinned monster would not find itself so severely outmaneuvered. If its stomping foot had been swifter, it wouldn't have been so easily caught. Had its body movements been more agile, it should have already been encircling its adversary and launching an assault. And, were its frame not so cumbersome, it should have already righted itself and stood.

Regrettably, due to the pervasive influence of the golden markings, every action was delayed by a crucial beat. This minor temporal lag, though seemingly insignificant, presented a fatal vulnerability in combat.

One small black leather shoe whipped through the air, transforming into an expanding phantom of footwear as it moved. *Smack!* It connected with the green-skinned monster's flailing hand, which was attempting to swat Yani away. One limb was instantly fractured, eliciting a howl from the monster, its body convulsing. But the other shoe in Yani's free hand had already arrived. Another sharp sound echoed as it struck the green-skinned monster's head, abruptly stifling its cries.

Following this, a continuous barrage of sharp striking sounds commenced...
