"Listen to me, this is an order!" Lu Zhaoming said sternly, "Your presence here will only get in the way! Only when you are safe can I fight them without restraint!"
Old Wolf and Su Li hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
They knew that Lu Zhaoming was telling the truth.
They can't really be of much help if they stay here.
"Then be careful!" Old Wolf patted Lu Zhaoming on the shoulder and said, "We'll wait for you at the usual place!"
"Don't worry, I'll be fine!" Lu Zhaoming grinned, revealing a confident smile.
After watching Lao Lang and Su Li leave with the others, Lu Zhaoming took a deep breath and began to adjust his state.
He knew that a fierce battle was about to begin.
"Since you want to play, then I'll play with you properly!" Lu Zhaoming
In order to buy time, Lu Zhaoming deliberately created some false signals, leading the hunter team in another direction.
Using the scanning function of the trial system, he found a hidden escape route and quickly left the abandoned warehouse.
He disguised himself as a wandering merchant and infiltrated a small settlement.
This settlement is located in an abandoned factory area and is home to some homeless scavengers and vagrants.
Lu Zhaoming learned here that a reclusive supernatural ability mentor lived deep in the northern ruins.
It is said that this mentor was a highly respected elder with great strength and rich experience.
“That mentor’s name is Eagle. He has been living in seclusion for many years and rarely has contact with the outside world,” an old craftsman with a wrinkled face told Lu Zhaoming. “However, he has a very strange temper, and not just anyone can meet him.”
"It's alright, I'll let him see me!" Lu Zhaoming
However, just as he was preparing to head to the northern ruins, a small-scale pursuit by the hunters began.
"Lu Zhaoming, you can't escape!" A cold voice rang out over the settlement.
Immediately afterwards, several hunters dressed in black combat uniforms descended from the sky and surrounded Lu Zhaoming.
"Looks like you guys really are persistent!" Lu Zhaoming sneered.
"Enough with the nonsense, come back with us!" A hunter raised his gun and pointed it at Lu Zhaoming.
"Go back? I'm afraid you don't have the ability!" Lu Zhaoming moved and disappeared from the spot like a ghost.
"Watch out, he's trying to escape!" a hunter shouted.
However, before they could finish speaking, Lu Zhaoming had already appeared behind them.
With a swift stroke of his knife, he knocked a reckless hunter to the ground.
"Energy Trap, activate!" Lu Zhaoming shouted, and a dazzling white light surged from his palm.
The white light instantly transformed into an invisible energy trap, enveloping the fallen hunter within it.
"Ah..." The hunter let out a shrill scream, his body convulsed, and finally lost his life.
"Knife!" Upon seeing this, the other hunters exclaimed in surprise and raised their guns to fire at Lu Zhaoming.
Lu Zhaoming moved swiftly, easily dodging the bullets fired by the hunter.
He used the terrain to his advantage, constantly moving among the hunters, looking for an opportunity.
However, as he fought fiercely with the hunter, the fluctuations of his supernatural power grew stronger.
He could feel that he was about to lose control of this power.
"Damn it, I can't drag this out any longer!" Lu Zhaoming cursed inwardly and quickened his attack.
He moved like a ghost among the hunters, each strike taking a life.
Soon, Lu Zhaoming killed all the remaining hunters.
However, after this battle, the fluctuations of Lu Zhaoming's supernatural abilities also reached their peak.
He felt unbearably hot all over, as if a flame was burning inside him.
Worse still, he discovered that he was starting to lose control, and the existence of the trial system seemed about to be exposed!
"No, I must leave here as soon as possible!" Lu Zhaoming was secretly on guard, not daring to linger for even a moment, and quickened his pace toward the ruins to the north. He had a vague feeling that his reclusive mentor might be his only hope now.
He took a deep breath, suppressing the surging power within him, and looked resolutely into the distance. In that desolate ruin, it seemed that the answer to calm the storm within him was hidden.
He must find the eagle, he must...
A slightly hoarse voice came from not far away: "Young man, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Lu Zhaoming looked in the direction of the sound and saw an old man in tattered work clothes with messy hair squatting next to a pile of discarded tires, squinting at him with a sharp look, like an eagle staring at a rabbit.
"Hey old man, who are you? Are you cosplaying a scavenger here?" Lu Zhaoming said irritably, but inwardly he wondered, could this be the legendary eagle?
The old man chuckled, revealing a few yellowed teeth with missing ones. "Young man, you've got quite a temper! I'm just passing by, but seeing your dark complexion, I'm afraid you're in for some bad luck!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhaoming chuckled, "Oh ho, you can even tell fortunes? How about I start a live stream for you? I guarantee you'll have over a million followers!" As he spoke, Lu Zhaoming unconsciously activated his Eye of Judgment, and a faint light flashed.
The old man, who had been grinning, suddenly changed his expression, stood up abruptly, and his eyes were filled with shock. "You...you actually have this kind of power?!"
