Bai Ye bared his teeth.
That punch packed a punch, and his body had been enhanced by the T-virus.
Meanwhile…
The man strode towards Bai Ye and said, "Kid, if you don't want to suffer, hand over the treasure you took from the Tomb of the King of Huainan."
"Your ability seems to be physical enhancement?" Bai Ye shook his head and smiled, "So, you rely on that body to make a living, but I'm sorry, I don't!"
The moment Bai Ye finished speaking, the man suddenly felt he had stepped on something. He looked down and was instantly shocked.
Chewer Grenade!
Boom!
Three Chewer Grenades suddenly exploded under the man's feet, and flames erupted, engulfing the man.
"Ah…"
Flames wrapped around the man, and he immediately cried out in pain, struggling and crashing into the surrounding trees, trying to extinguish the flames on his body.
And at this moment…
Bang!
Bai Ye pushed off with both legs and lunged towards the man, his serrated blade drooping and vibrating rapidly.
Then…
The moment he reached the man, Bai Ye raised his serrated blade and forcefully slashed down.
The sound of flesh tearing suddenly rang out, followed by an arm flying off, and bright red blood sprayed out, staining the grass on the ground red.
Bai Ye curled his lips. The opponent's body was merely enhanced, not turned into steel. His strength and speed might have increased significantly, but his defense was questionable. Even if he could make his body as hard as steel, ordinary steel would be as brittle as tissue paper against a high-frequency serrated blade.
Pfft!
The next instant, Bai Ye swung his blade again with force.
A flash of cold light streaked across.
The scream of pain abruptly ceased!
The serrated blade swept across the man's neck, and then his head tumbled down, hitting the ground.
Thump!
The headless corpse fell backward, blood flowing out.
Bai Ye flicked the blood off his blade, then returned to the man who was groaning in pain, and raised his serrated blade.
"Since your most important little brother is gone anyway, let me put you out of your misery!"
Pfft!
Bai Ye forcefully plunged the serrated blade down, piercing the man's heart in one strike.
The man's eyes snapped open, his lips twitching. He struggled to reach out and grab Bai Ye's trouser leg, then slowly let go, completely falling silent.
After dealing with both of them, Bai Ye even rummaged through their bodies to see if they had anything valuable.
Unfortunately, Bai Ye found nothing. The World Battlefield had only opened not long ago, and the members of the Canglong Association had rarely acted across domains. Bagu Mountain might have been the first forbidden zone these people had experienced. In other words, the Canglong Association members hadn't even made any gains yet.
Bai Ye could only give up, pick up his weapon, and continue on his way.
He continued forward along the mountain path, and after about half an hour, Bai Ye arrived near the entrance of the mountain path.
Although he was some distance away, Bai Ye was certain that there were people at the entrance of the mountain path.
Because, through the gaps in the trees, he could see wisps of smoke rising.
Bai Ye took out the magazine for his Grim Reaper's Strike, then found a large tree to climb. He then set up his rifle among the treetops, secured it with a strap, and observed the mountain path entrance through the high-powered scope.
There were a total of eight people. Five were scattered at the entrance of the mountain path, and three were a bit further back, smoking in a huddle. The smoke Bai Ye had seen earlier was from these three, exposing their location.
"Eight people, and they want to ambush me?" Bai Ye sneered, "Alright, let the game begin!"
Bai Ye adjusted the scope, made some corrections, then supported the rifle body, and aimed the muzzle at one of the men's heads.
But, the next instant…
Bai Ye's lips suddenly curved into a peculiar smile.
The muzzle of the Grim Reaper's Strike slowly lowered, aimed at the man's knee, and then…
Bang!
Bai Ye pulled the trigger. Immediately, a splash of blood erupted from the man's knee, and the man cried out in pain, collapsing to the ground.
The man's two companions looked astonished. Before they could react, Bai Ye pulled the trigger a second time.
Bang!
The second shot rang out, and the second man's leg was pierced by Bai Ye's shot. He fell to the ground with a howl.
After two consecutive shots, the opponents finally reacted.
The men who were smoking pulled their companions, attempting to drag them behind the hillside, but at this moment…
Bang!
Bai Ye pulled the trigger for the third time!
This time, Bai Ye didn't hold back. He aimed directly at the man's head. The moment the gun fired, through the scope, he saw a bloody hole burst open in the man's head. After a wisp of blood dispersed in the air, the man fell straight down.
Bai Ye shifted his body slightly, moving the muzzle slightly towards the mountain path.
The five men at the mountain path entrance, upon hearing the gunshots, immediately retreated.
Seeing the three men lying in pools of blood, they showed signs of anxiety and quickly moved towards them. However, they failed to notice that Bai Ye, through the scope, had already locked onto one of them. He slowly moved the muzzle, and then…
Bang!
Bai Ye pulled the trigger again. The middle-aged man walking at the front fell straight backward.
One shot to the head, instantly fatal!
"Sniper!" someone shouted, "Scatter! Hurry, scatter and find cover!"
The four men quickly leaped apart, hiding behind the hillside, and cautiously huddled together.
Bai Ye smiled silently. Killing all eight people cleanly with a sniper rifle was not a simple task.
After all, this was a mountainous area with plenty of cover. The advantage was that the opponents couldn't easily find Bai Ye, but the disadvantage was that they also had plenty of space to hide. Managing to take down half of them at once was already an unexpected delight; the opponents' reaction was slightly slower than Bai Ye had anticipated.
However…
"Are you safe just by hiding?"
Bai Ye slowly moved his muzzle again, aiming at the two men he had injured in the legs earlier.
Bang!
Bai Ye fired. The bullet hit one man's thigh, and the man immediately cried out in pain, curling up. He wanted to touch his wound with his hands but was afraid of more pain, so he could only flail his hands in the air.
The four men hiding were stunned. Were there still survivors?
And at this moment…
Bang!
The gunshot rang out again.
This time, another surviving man began to scream. Bai Ye hit him with a shot, but it wasn't a vital spot. He had aimed at the man's buttocks.
"Bastards!"
The four men hiding suddenly understood what Bai Ye was doing.
Bai Ye was asking them…
Your comrades are still alive…
Are you going to come out and save them?
Or are you going to abandon them?
…
