Just then, her keen ears twitched slightly, as if she had sensed something unusual.
Immediately afterwards, relying on his accumulated combat experience and superhuman reaction speed, Jiang An instantly dodged a deadly sneak attack from behind.
Almost simultaneously, Jiang An turned around quickly and launched a counterattack without hesitation.
However, to her surprise, the instant she made her move, another player appeared behind her like a ghost and launched another fierce attack on her.
Faced with such a sudden change, Jiang An's expression changed abruptly, and a sharp glint flashed in the depths of his originally calm eyes.
At this moment, the situation had become extremely critical, but Jiang An did not lose his composure.
Instead, she took a deep breath, gathering power into her hands, and began to fully enhance her combat output, fighting against the two hostile enemies in front of her on her own.
It was obvious that these two players with ulterior motives had been secretly hiding here, waiting for their chance to strike.
They had been waiting for the perfect opportunity, hoping to take advantage of Jiang An's exhaustion after her fierce battle with the dwarves to deliver a fatal blow from behind, thus easily reaping the benefits.
"Qiangzi, what are you dawdling for? Come out now and get on the scene!" one of the players suddenly shouted.
No sooner said than done, Jiang An's figure flashed past like lightning once again as soon as the player finished speaking.
At the same time, a powerful, overwhelming sword intent suddenly erupted, surging forward and sweeping towards the front...
With a thud, the player who had spoken fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other player's face turned ashen, and he knew in his heart that something was wrong. He turned around and tried to run away.
But how could Jiang An let him escape so easily?
She moved with ghostly speed, and in the blink of an eye, she was already in front of the player.
At the same time, the Fulong Blade she gripped tightly flashed with a cold light, like lightning streaking across the night sky.
The next moment, a muffled thud was heard, and the player collapsed to the ground before he could even let out a scream.
Jiang stood quietly in place, staring blankly at the scene before her, as if this bloody scene was already commonplace to her.
After confirming that the player was completely dead, she moved her feet slightly, turned around, and sped off in a certain direction like an arrow.
It turned out that she had never forgotten the words the first player had said before dying in that fierce battle—that there was a fourth person lurking in this place.
Meanwhile, when Jiang An killed the first player, he keenly sensed something was amiss.
This player wasn't known for his speed like Zhang Xinyu, so logically, I shouldn't have been able to catch up with and defeat him so easily.
This is why Jiang An became wary and relentlessly pursued him.
Soon, Jiang An caught up with the player who was desperately trying to escape.
"Boss, please have mercy on me! I beg you! I was forced to do this!" The fleeing player heard the footsteps behind him getting closer and closer. Knowing that he could not escape Jiang An's pursuit, he was immediately terrified. His legs went weak, and he knelt down with a thud, pleading with Jiang An with tears streaming down his face.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Jiang An was stunned and momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Just then, something unexpected happened!
The player who was kneeling and begging for mercy suddenly changed his expression, a cunning and ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
In that instant, he keenly seized the opportunity when Jiang An was slightly distracted and acted as swiftly as a cheetah.
His hand reached into his robes with lightning speed and, in the blink of an eye, drew a gleaming, incredibly sharp short knife.
In the blink of an eye, he wielded a short knife and stabbed at Jiang An with lightning speed.
In an instant, the air seemed to freeze. With a "whoosh," the short knife flew straight toward Jiang An like an arrow released from a bow.
However, Jiang An was by no means an ordinary person.
Faced with such a sudden attack, she displayed amazing reaction speed and agility.
Almost at the same moment, she flashed forward, her right hand flashing out swiftly and accurately blocking the short knife thrust at her.
With a crisp, loud clang, the sound of metal clashing rang out, sparks flew, and the noise was deafening. The short knife fell to the ground with a clear, crisp sound.
Without hesitation, Jiang An took a step forward and thrust his weapon swiftly towards the man.
This series of actions was performed smoothly and seamlessly, taking only a few seconds.
The scene was incredibly tense and exciting, making everyone hold their breath.
The man who tried to ambush Jiang An clearly did not expect her to react so quickly and counterattack so fiercely, and was killed by Jiang An in an instant.
They lost their precious lives.
Jiang An stared coldly at the already chilling corpse on the ground, a wave of fear washing over him.
If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, I would probably be the one lying on the ground right now.
While secretly relieved, she was also furious at the player's unscrupulous and underhanded tactics. She had almost lost her life due to a moment of carelessness—she had been far too careless!
After this harrowing experience, Jiang An deeply remembered this profound lesson: never let your guard down, no matter when or where, because even a moment of carelessness could lead to fatal danger.
Soon, Jiang An adjusted his mindset and began to clean up the mess in an orderly manner.
She first walked to the body, bent down, and picked up the bulging backpack. Instead of opening it, she slung it over her shoulder.
Then, she picked up the short knife that had fallen to the side, examined it carefully, and put it into her pocket.
After doing all this, Jiang An turned and left, leaving the lonely corpse lying quietly in the spot.
As for what to do with the body, Jiang An was not worried. She firmly believed that nature had its own laws and that it would disappear without a trace before long.
Jiang An knew that time was precious and she couldn't linger here, because there were still more spoils waiting for her to collect.
With a flash, she disappeared from the spot without a trace, like a ghost.
The next moment, she appeared on the battlefield where the fierce battle had taken place.
Jiang An swiftly picked up all the weapons the two men had used in their fierce battle and put them into his storage bag without hesitation.
The backpacks left behind by the two enemies on the battlefield naturally did not escape her "clutches" either, and Jiang An stuffed them all into the storage bag.
At this moment, she had no time to care what treasures were hidden in those three backpacks, as there were other spoils waiting for her to discover.
She had a gut feeling that these three players wouldn't have that many supplies.
So Jiang An began to search the vicinity carefully.
After walking around for a short while, her gaze was suddenly drawn to a clump of grass not far away—there lay a bulging-looking storage bag!
