The light from the flashlight shone on the wall.
All I could see was a young man with short hair.
The next second, the man threw something.
The flashlight was smashed, and the light went out.
"Such poor manners!" Zhou Yi muttered.
Da da da!
The bodyguard in the suit raised his gun and fired.
But Zhou Yi's image is no longer visible on the wall.
The scarred man raised his hand to stop his men from firing.
The scene quieted down.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
boom!
The bodyguards in suits burst into flames, turning into human torches and rolling on the ground, emitting shrill screams.
The scarred man's expression changed, and he was about to act when the flames on the bodyguards exploded again, igniting all the flammable materials around them.
The scorching heat forced the scarred man to retreat continuously.
Just three seconds later, the screams stopped abruptly.
They're all dead!
The scarred man was sweating profusely.
What the hell is this skill?
There was no warning whatsoever.
He gripped his pistol tightly, leaned against the wall, and kept scanning his surroundings.
"Are you looking for me?" The young man's voice suddenly rang out above him.
The scarred man felt a chill run down his spine; without even looking, he raised his gun and fired.
With a quick lunge, he darted in an S-shaped pattern, moving away from the wall and with his back to the flames.
Even though his back was stinging from the flames, he didn't care.
Raise the gun and aim.
The mysterious man disappeared again.
"Come out if you dare! Fight me head-on!" the scarred man shouted.
Gong Yan and Xiao Bai, who were on the ground, suddenly widened their eyes and looked behind the scarred man.
A person slowly emerged from the flames.
The man's eyes burned with flames, like the fiery eyes of the Monkey King, so bright they were almost blinding.
Hmm, and he's also holding a strange square object in his hand.
As the person moved, the flames seemed to encounter their nemesis, scattering to both sides.
The scarred man remained vigilant about his surroundings.
The flames behind me seemed to have cooled down.
I tilted my head slightly and glanced at it. What was that?
He turned around abruptly, raised his gun, and saw a dark object falling from the sky.
Bang!
Zhou Yi smashed a brick into the scarred man's forehead.
The scarred man's body trembled, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted instantly.
Zhou Yi stared into deep thought as he looked at the intact brick in his hand.
Why does this look different from the scene in the movie where someone smashes a dozen bricks with their head?
Is it because the bricks from China are of such high quality?
Zhou Yi threw away the brick, clapped his hands, picked up the gun from the ground, and put it in his pocket.
These are all loot dropped by monsters, and they've come at just the right time.
In case the magic ever goes out of use, it can be used for self-defense.
Zhou Yi came to Gong Yan and helped her up.
To prevent her from falling, Zhou Yi had no choice but to put his arm around her waist.
Hmm, it feels good to the touch, firm and elastic, without an ounce of excess fat.
A delicate fragrance of jasmine wafted into my nostrils.
Besides the smell of blood, there also seemed to be a hint of milk.
"Hey sister-in-law, you're too violent. Every time I see you, you're either fighting or on your way to a fight," Zhou Yi teased.
Gong Yan reached out and lightly punched Zhou Yi's shoulder, scolding, "How can you talk about your sister-in-law like that? Besides, even if I'm violent, are you more violent than me?"
The movement aggravated her wound, causing Gong Yan's body to tremble slightly.
Zhou Yi tightened his grip again.
He chuckled: "Isn't this just a defensive response? I heard you're a security guard, are you going to arrest me?"
Gong Yan said solemnly, "These people all deserve to die! Their inhumanity is beyond description, and countless people have died at their hands. You are doing a service to the people, so I will not arrest you!"
"By the way, what are you doing here? Where's Xiao Yiyi?"
Zhou Yi said, "I was being chased and moved here. Xiao Yiyi is playing games inside."
Gong Yan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that Xiao Yiyi was alright.
The surrounding flames slowly died down.
Gong Yan looked up, her expression becoming incredibly complicated.
The bodyguards were burned beyond recognition; only some black powder remained on the ground as proof that they had ever been here.
A gentle breeze stirred, causing the black powder to rise slightly.
Zhou Yi smacked his lips.
That's a living bomb, that's too ruthless.
This is practically an essential skill for murder and body disposal, whether at home or traveling.
"How did you get involved with this guy?" Zhou Yi gestured towards Xiao Bai on the ground.
He was deeply impressed by Xiao Bai, the beggar who dared to single-handedly save the damsel in distress yesterday.
Heroes are rare in chaotic times.
Unfortunately, heroes often die young.
Xiao Bai stared blankly at Zhou Yi, his wooden eyes beginning to flicker slightly.
"A good person..."
After managing to utter just two words, Xiao Bai fainted.
“You…” Zhou Yi almost kicked him.
Is this how you give out "friend zone" cards?
"His name is Xiao Bai, and he just lost his lover..."
After listening to my sister-in-law's story.
Zhou Yi shook his head.
Is it not a blessing to witness your loved one's passing? At least you won't have to worry about them continuing to suffer abuse in this era.
Some people are not so lucky. Even if their loved one is still alive, they are no longer the white moonlight in their hearts, but a soulless shell wandering in a dirty and chaotic world.
All he can do is make himself stronger.
Zhou Yi flicked his finger, and a fireball flew toward the scarred man, quickly engulfing him in flames.
Then, with one arm around his sister-in-law and the other lifting Xiao Bai by the back of his collar, he walked into the house.
“Your special ability…” Gong Yan sat on the sofa, looking at Zhou Yi with bright eyes.
Zhou Yi raised his index finger, and a ball of flame instantly appeared at his fingertip.
Even though there was some distance between them, Gong Yan could still feel the intense heat emanating from the flame.
"Those who have been exchanged from the gods will have more and more superpowers in the future. People like you who rely solely on physical strength and combat skills will find it increasingly difficult to survive."
