    Jack let out a sigh as he saw the delight in everyone''s eyes.


    "Now there are even attacks and looting between settlements, sometimes humans are more terrifying than zombies..."


    "Ha, aren''t you afraid that I''m a spy sent over?"


    Hearing Tao Yu''s words, Jack rolled his eyes.


    "Do I not know the situation in the city better than you? How could we possibly arrange a spy like you?"


    He paused for a moment here.


    "Besides, even if it were true, as long as you can provide food, we''ll take it, but you''ll have to sleep alone in a room at night. Shaolin is doing the same right now.


    Though Jack spoke as if everything were fine, he couldn''t afford to let down his guard.


    Just as the threebatants were always following Tao Yu.


    They weren''t as ''naive'' as they appeared.


    Shaolin had also just entered the settlement not long ago and was now also living alone in a room, which prompted a warm smile on Tao Yu''s face as he amiably addressed Shaolin,


    "Little brother Shaolin, we''re going to be neighbors after this."


    "That''s right, brother Zhang, please look out for me."


    Shaolin, too, put on a fake smile...


    ...


    That night, Tao Yu, who had been leaning against the wall, silently peered through the cracks of the wooden nks nailed to the window, gazing at the darkness outside.


    The sky seemed to be covered with clouds, and the moonlight was obscured by the dark clouds, turning everything pitch ck.


    Sliding his hand across the cracks on the window, Tao Yu estimated their size.


    The wooden nks served as a defense from the outside and also as a precaution against Tao Yu, but overall, they were just to prevent something the size of a human body, as the nks had to ensure venttion, the cracks were not small.


    "Should be enough..."


    Tao Yu waited until three in the morning, then he took out two Qi Replenishing Pills and held them in his mouth.


    Afterward, he suddenly dove into the shadows, instantly entering that mottled world of shadows and quickly squeezed through the cracks in the wooden nks, swiftly making his way to the side and into Shaolin''s room.


    However, what nearly caused Tao Yu to lose hisposure was that, just as he had entered the room, the supposedly sleeping Shaolin on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, looking around alertly!


    Even Li Hui, the deputy captain of the outer city security team, had not been aware of Tao Yu at all.


    This was also the source of Tao Yu''s confidence.


    Yet who would have expected that this precaution would lead to such a situation?


    No wonder he felt malicious intent and a sense of crisis simultaneously!


    "Who goes there!"


    Shaolin''s demeanorpletely changed from his gentlemanly daytime appearance, his face turned cold as he stepped violently towards the approximate direction Tao Yu was in.


    The standard Baji Fist style brought a chill to Tao Yu, as he instantly entered Bullet Time!


    It was supposed to be his ambush, but now the opponent had seized the initiative. What incredible perception!


    However, Tao Yu could see clearly that the other person did not actually see him, but seemed to sense this direction through some unknown means!


    Under Bullet Time, Shaolin''s once ferocious and brutal rapid punches slowed down immensely.


    The grimace on his face due to the force of the punch, the vacant pupils, seemingly turning his head to sense something, and the twisted air caused by the punch all yed out in slow motion before Tao Yu.


    Using the strength depletion from Bullet Time to elerate his body, Tao Yu felt all his Qi-Blood energized.


    With his powerful physique, he felt a tearing pain.


    His Qi-Blood spurred the explosion of force, and in conjunction with the Crane style''s crisp movements, Tao Yu sidestepped the punch and with a twist of his wrist, he shed his hooked knife fiercely towards the other''s chest and abdomen.


    He aimed to spill the entrails by crossing past each other.


    But chilling Tao Yu''s heart was the sight, even in the precise slow-motion of Bullet Time, of the opponent''s knees and elbows beginning to twist unnaturally.


    ng~


    With a knee lift and elbow press, Shaolin''s raised knee and pressed elbow firmly trapped the sh Tao Yu had intended for his torso.


    This nearly caused Tao Yu to curse out loud.


    The situation had changed!


    Shluck~


    ```


    The Shadow Force that enveloped Tao Yu''s entire body poured out,bining with the force of his own sh like a sea embracing rivers, rushing toward the space between Cao Shaolin''s elbow and knee.


    In an instant, the fabric of the clothes at the opponent''s elbow and knee flew apart!


    The bronze skin also bore numerous disordered bloodstains in the air.


    In addition to this, the psychic shock attached to Basic Armament: Modified made Cao Shaolin let out a muffled grunt as the whites of his eyes burst with blood vessels.


    Yet even so, the defense with the leg-cutting knife did not loosen in the slightest.


    Even under the entanglement of multiple forces, the leg-cutting knife broke with a snap.


    Crack~


    But just as Cao Shaolin forcibly endured the dizziness in his head, as well as the tearing pain from the physical attack, and was preparing to pull back and counterattack,


    he turned his head only to see the pistol Tao Yu had drawn and its dark barrel.


    His pupils constricted, and Cao Shaolin dodged the bullet that followed the sh of gunfire in the nick of time by tilting his head.


    Upon recognizing it was Tao Yu, his face twisted ferociously.


    Cao Shaolin had never imagined that he, who always toyed with others, would be the one ambushed this time!


    I want you dead!


    But before he could turn that furious thought into action,


    the bullet he should have dodged with a tilt of his head suddenly took a turn and burrowed into his eye.


    Fuck! Damn you!


    "He isn''t dead yet?"


    Tao Yu clicked his tongue in astonishment at the sight of Cao Shaolin, whose eye sockets had turned into bloody holes, merely tilting his head back and retreating, seemingly ready to turn over and smash through the window to escape.


    He then followed up with a flurry of bullets, each shot targeted at the head.


    With the first step of Cao Shaolin''s turn, a bullet struck the back of his head, the psychic shock together with the physical blow causing his head to feel heavy.


    But his reinforced skull stubbornly caught the bullets, merely cracking without him dying instantly.


    Looking at the window blocked with wooden boards in front of him, he also harbored a longing for life in the depths of his heart.


    Just dash through, just break out, and he could survive!


    And then he would definitelye back to kill them all!


    Toys, daring to defy their master!


    Unfortunately, though his speed and strength were extremely fearsome, and his defensive capabilities and vitality were astonishing,


    being hit by a bullet with every step, unable to dodge any of them, and subjected to severe psychic shocks, hisst thread of consciousness dissipated as his head broke through the wooden boards.


    In the end, his entire corpse was wedged hard onto the broken boards, dying with his eyes wide open.


    Even Tao Yu himself was heart thumping at this moment.


    He had been sure that Cao Shaolin was no ordinary foe, that sense of threat was real.


    Which is why he went all out!


    He had thought that under a sneak attack, there shouldn''t have been much problem!


    Who would have thought that not only had he used all of his means, but he had also almost been overturned.


    If it weren''t for One Certificate, Forever Valid allowing him to ignore the tearing injuries and draw his pistol immediately, if he had really been countered by that fierce force, then it would have been all over.


    A skull resisting a burst of bullets before dying, what kind of thing was that.


    Reloading his pistol until he confirmed that Yuan Force had begun to gather on the body.


    Only then did he quickly drag his exhausted body away amid the disturbance of the awakening crowd outside.


    "Not a part on the body?"


    Tao Yu was somewhat surprised to find that the Yuan Force ultimately gathered on a golden pistol at the opponent''s waist that he had never had the chance to use.


    Without concerning himself too much with it, he quickly cleaned up the spent cartridges at the scene, and Tao Yu, having quickly replenished his Qi with a Qi Replenishing Pill, casually threw Cao Shaolin''s body from the broken window down to the building below.


    He then evaded back into the shadows and returned to his room.


    He casually sensed the gains from the golden pistol.


    Simply absorbing Yuan Force could reach over a thousand units.


    That was the amount from killing over fifty Aliens!
