"The challenge begins!"
The city lord wasted no time and immediately made the announcement, then stepped back to clear the central area.
People around kept their distance.
It wouldn't be good if we got accidentally injured.
Everything else is fine, but that brass short sword is truly terrifying. If you get touched and leave a wound, you'll turn into a zombie instantly.
While Luo Jinxin was preparing, Zhang Lin overheard the conversations around him and learned about the so-called half-corpse potion and brass short sword.
But he wasn't very panicked.
After all, he still has the trump card of the extraordinary template.
The challenge has officially begun!
Luo Jinxin held a brass dagger, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the dagger moved swiftly like a golden serpent, aiming directly at Zhang Lin's chest.
The chest area is a large target; if Zhang Lin is left with even a small wound, he will quickly turn into a zombie, and Zhang Lin will win the challenge.
Zhang Lin, however, swung his knife to block the short sword.
The clash of swords produced a series of clanging sounds.
"What tremendous force!"
Luo Jinxin's eyes narrowed, his heart filled with doubt and surprise. He couldn't help but take two steps back and scrutinize Zhang Lin carefully.
After using the half-corpse potion, his physique was greatly enhanced. If an ordinary person were to receive a sword strike from him, they probably wouldn't even be able to hold their sword.
But Zhang Lin's strike almost caused him to drop his short sword!
"Chicken down?" Seeing him retreat, Zhang Lin followed up and slashed down with his sword. This move has a nice name: "Splitting Mount Hua with Force".
His machete, worn down from a day of hacking at zombies, was now being used as a blunt weapon. If this strike had hit, Luo Jinxin would have experienced the same feeling as Li Chuan's skull had shattered the day before.
"You have absolutely no technique!" Luo Jinxin felt a little wary of Zhang Lin, but he spoke with great bravado, "With just brute force, you are no match for me!"
"Then let's have a passionate sword fight!" Zhang Lin was in complete control and even had the mood to make witty remarks to distract the other party.
As he spoke, he unleashed another flurry of blows.
Zhang Lin didn't know any fighting techniques; when he fought, it was all about one word: "passion!"
As the saying goes, even a master can be defeated by a novice. Luo Jinxin had extensive experience in fighting, but he couldn't use any of it at this moment.
"No way, you came all this way to challenge us, and this is all we get?" Zhang Lin had the upper hand completely. "Dude, are you playing house like a kid? Don't you know people will die?"
Luo Jinxin felt aggrieved, but he couldn't say a word. He could only parry Zhang Lin's attacks with his sword.
Sudden!
With a clanging sound.
Li Chuan's cheap machete, which he had bought from who-knows-where, was cleaved in two by Luo Jinxin's sword, with most of the blade falling to the ground. Zhang Lin was left with only the hilt and a small section of the blade.
The opportunity has arrived!
Luo Jinxin was overjoyed and immediately launched a fierce attack with his sword. In an instant, the situation was reversed, and he turned defense into offense!
Zhang Lin was also taken aback, but the golden short sword that came straight at him brought him back to his senses. He looked at Luo Jinxin, who was laughing, and raised one of his wrists at him.
"emission!"
With a thought, the Yin-Yang Ring in his hand emitted a grayish-white light and shot towards Luo Jinxin at an extremely fast speed.
Luo Jinxin was still inwardly marveling at his good fortune when he saw a grayish-white light shooting towards him. The light was so fast that it completely exceeded his reaction time and struck his face directly.
Instantly, Luo Jinxin's face looked as if sulfuric acid had been splashed on it, and his skin was corroded in an instant.
"ah--"
Luo Jinxin was too weak to continue attacking Zhang Lin. He couldn't even hold onto his short sword and it fell to the ground. He covered his face and wailed in pain.
But he overlooked one thing: as soon as his hands touched his face, the grayish-white light that had not yet completely dissipated clung to his hands, and instantly, his hands were also corroded.
Luo Jinxin pulled his hands away, the excruciating pain causing him to roar loudly. Everyone could see that part of his face had already revealed bright red muscles, and in another part, even the muscles had been corroded, revealing the deep white bones.
"Holy crap, what is that?!"
A group of onlookers stared wide-eyed.
At first, Luo Jinxin was suppressed by Zhang Lin, which didn't surprise everyone too much, after all, Zhang Lin was ranked second among the five captains by the city lord.
Seeing that Zhang Lin had Luo Jinxin completely overwhelmed and unable to fight back, everyone thought that Zhang Lin was about to win.
However, Zhang Lin's inferior machete was then broken, and the situation reversed. Luo Jinxin immediately launched a fierce counterattack, and everyone thought that Zhang Lin was about to be defeated.
Some even sighed, "Zhang Lin suffered because of his weaponry!"
But what happened next caught everyone completely off guard.
Zhang Lin used some unknown method to deliver a fatal blow to Luo Jinxin in an instant.
As a superhuman, disfigurement is nothing, but the key issue is that vital organs such as eyes, ears, and nose are all on the face.
At this moment, Luo Jinxin was lying on the ground, struggling frantically. His eyes were damaged, so he couldn't see anything; one of his ears was corroded, greatly reducing his hearing; and most of his nose was also corroded, causing him excruciating pain with every breath...
"Damn it, never challenge Zhang Lin again, he died a horrible death!"
Everyone simultaneously set a principle for themselves.
The city lord's gaze was fixed on Luo Jinxin, his eyes unwavering. After a moment, he looked at Zhang Lin, his expression hidden beneath the silver mask. All that was visible was that he stared at Zhang Lin for a long time.
