The An sisters were still not clear about the situation, but they knew that the situation was not simple. They were even more worried about Zhang Lin. They wanted to say a few words of advice, but when they heard Zhang Lin say "Trust me", they immediately gave up the idea of persuading him.
However, I felt a little sour inside, after all, those words were said to Ji Yuetong...
"Then be careful. If you're not feeling safe, take out your gun. It's against the rules, but at least it'll ensure your safety." Ji Yuetong said, glancing at Zhang Lin's belt. "Where's your gun?"
Zhang Lin said calmly, "Don't worry, I brought it with me."
Ji Yuetong looked around again but still couldn't see it. However, she didn't doubt Zhang Lin's words because Zhang Lin had suddenly produced a gun last time.
Experienced!
“I accept the challenge!” Zhang Lin stepped forward without the slightest fear.
"Kid, don't be a hero. Dying for a woman isn't exactly honorable," Li Chuan said with a disdainful sneer.
He thought Zhang Lin was the kind of reckless young man who would risk his life for a woman.
"Stop talking nonsense, it's just a series of challenges, bring it on." Zhang Lin was a little impatient. He had just heard Li Chuan shouting for a long time. If he weren't new to this place and unfamiliar with the rules, he would have taught this idiot a lesson.
"Ha, how arrogant!" Li Chuan was amused by the situation. "Fine, then let me see if you have the right to be so arrogant!"
The city lord then spoke up: "The challenge to determine the ownership of house number 16 will now begin. It will be a five-on-one elimination tournament. Li Chuan, you can choose your order of appearance!"
"Sun Yanpeng, you go first." Li Chuan casually pointed to one of his subordinates.
A young man named Sun Yanpeng stepped forward, his gaze towards Zhang Lin somewhat uneasy.
He was less than 1.8 meters tall, not as tall as Zhang Lin.
After being enhanced by a gene serum and a superhuman template, Zhang Lin's body was no longer the flabby, chubby state it used to be; instead, it was covered in taut, solid muscles.
With his tall stature, he looked quite intimidating.
"What are you afraid of?" Li Chuan said irritably when he saw Sun Yanpeng looking a little scared. "You still have a weapon in your hand!"
"Understood, Brother Li!" Sun Yanpeng gripped the machete in his hand, instantly gaining confidence. He faced Zhang Lin and shouted sharply, "You little brat, let's begin!"
He had followed Li Chuan all the way here, and had killed people on his hands. Now that he had adjusted his mindset and assumed a certain posture, he actually looked quite intimidating.
In particular, he was holding a machete.
Zhang Lin's hands were empty.
Behind him, three women watched him with concern. There were really no weapons at home, otherwise, Zhang Lin would not have been left to fight empty-handed.
"Come here!" Zhang Lin beckoned to him with his finger.
Sun Yanpeng immediately felt a surge of anger at being slighted. I may not be as tall or as strong as you, but do you think the machete in my hand is just for show?
He launched an attack in a fit of rage, using all his strength from the very beginning, wielding his machete, each strike aimed at a vital point.
However, Zhang Lin's reaction and speed were superior to his. He dodged the knife with a quick movement, and then punched him in the arm. Immediately, with a clang, the machete in his hand slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground.
Sun Yanpeng was shocked and immediately tried to back away to retrieve his machete, but Zhang Lin was faster and picked up the machete first, slashing directly at his neck!
puff!
A head fell to the ground, blood spurting high like a red fountain. Then, Sun Yanpeng's body fell straight to the ground!
"hiss--"
A collective gasp of astonishment immediately filled the air.
Part of it was because of Zhang Lin's swift and decisive action, and part of it was because of Zhang Lin's ruthlessness.
One strike to the head!
That was so decisive, and ruthless!
Even the city lords who were furthest away couldn't help but move closer.
Li Chuan and the others were even more surprised.
They had expected and could accept Sun Yanpeng's defeat, after all, Sun Yanpeng was the weakest among them and was meant to wear down Zhang Lin's stamina. But they hadn't expected Zhang Lin to be so swift in decapitating him.
“Next!” Zhang Lin stood holding the knife, bright red blood slowly dripping down the blade to the ground. He was expressionless, and his voice was completely calm.
This was without him using his dragon's might and dragon breath; he could have dealt with these people based solely on his basic physical abilities.
It's good that we can keep a low profile. We haven't reached the new era yet. If we reveal that we've awakened the extraordinary template, it will attract too much attention.
Li Chuan glanced at Ji Yuetong with suspicion, secretly alarmed. Could it be that Ji Yuetong wasn't as naive as before? Had she really found a powerful figure to help her?
"Don't waste time, hurry up and move on to the next one!" Zhang Lin urged coldly.
"In such a hurry to be reincarnated?" Li Chuan sneered, then pointed to another of his subordinates, "Xiao Long, you go!"
“Brother Li, I…” Xiao Long couldn’t help but take two steps back.
Originally, no one was afraid of fighting, but Zhang Lin was too ruthless, beheading someone with a single blow. Who wouldn't be afraid of that!
"Are you afraid of chicken feathers?" Li Chuan roared. "Do you really think killing people is effortless? He's recovering right now, and besides, it's not like you haven't killed people before!"
"Brother Li, keep an eye on things for me." Xiao Long was a little scared and asked Li Chuan to cover for him. Only after Li Chuan agreed did he dare to step forward with his knife.
This time, Zhang Lin took the initiative to attack.
Although he had never used a knife before, he was strong and fast, and in an instant he overwhelmed Xiaolong, leaving him unable to fight back and only able to dodge in a sorry state.
Xiao Long realized that his older brother was just talking nonsense. He was so strong, how could he have exhausted himself?
"I give up! I give up!" After resisting for a while, Xiaolong felt he couldn't hold on any longer and immediately shouted that he was giving up.
It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't shouted; the shout actually made Zhang Lin speed up his attack.
Xiao Long was almost in tears.
"Brother Li, save me!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chuan immediately roared, "He admits defeat! He admits defeat!"
But Zhang Lin had already caught up with Xiao Long, first slashing away Xiao Long's parrying blade with a single blow, then slashing at his neck with another.
puff!
Another decapitation strike.
There were now two headless corpses in the scene.
"Damn, this kid's ruthless!"
"Hey, Li Chuan's messed up!"
"Damn it, you killer! You admit defeat but still want to kill people!"
"..."
The onlookers were all grimacing. Although they had all reincarnated several times and had people on their hands, there were very few people like Zhang Lin who killed without blinking an eye and were so decisive.
"Lord, he fouled!" Li Chuan was also frightened by Zhang Lin and immediately shouted to the lord, "Xiao Long has already admitted defeat, yet he still killed someone. This is a foul. I request that you immediately declare him a foul and declare him the loser!"
Li Chuan was adept at using the rules. At this moment, he no longer wanted to use force to seize house number 16. Fortunately, he had reincarnated several times and was very familiar with the rules of Hope City.
