Chapter 48 Using Portraits to Find People



"Hand over what's in your backpack! Or I'll kill you!" A man in dirty tracksuits stood in front of the line, brandishing a switchblade and glaring menacingly at Lin Ruo.

Lin Ruo blinked, and she said that it was inevitable that she would take action this time. She quickened her pace, and the military dagger at her waist was instantly drawn.

With a swift movement, she rushed towards the man.

The man was startled, not expecting this short man to dare to attack directly. He quickly swung the switchblade in his hand forward.

Lin Ruo arrived in a moment, and with a fierce upward slash of his triangular military dagger, the man's wrist was severed, and a large amount of blood spurted out. Before the man could even scream, the triangular military dagger was plunged into his chest, and the man immediately stood still.

Lin Ruo twisted his wrist, and the triangular military dagger circled around the man's heart before kicking him away.

The man had a bloody hole in his chest and was already lifeless. His body flew backward quickly, crashing into four or five people behind him.

Those people fell to the ground, screaming in agony. The force with which their bodies were thrown backward was so great that they broke bones just from the impact!

"Go! He has food!"

Someone in the crowd shouted something, and as if a switch had been flipped, more than a dozen people rushed towards her.

These people were starving and attacked her relentlessly without even checking what was in Lin Ruo's backpack.

Lin Ruo was ruthless and merciless, using his military dagger to target vital points. His movements were lightning fast, and he moved nimbly. Before the others could even see what Lin Ruo was doing, four or five people around him fell to the ground.

They didn't even manage to hurt a single hair on Lin Ruo's head.

Seeing this, the men became frightened and instinctively distanced themselves from Lin Ruo, holding knives and confronting her.

Lin Ruo wasn't in a hurry. She picked up a piece of cloth from the ground and wiped the blood off her triangular bayonet.

She just used 50% of her speed, which is still much faster than before. If she had used her full strength, these people would probably all be dead by now.

"Hand over the backpack behind you! Even if you're skilled, there are too many of us! You won't get the better of us! Hurry up!"

A handsome man in a short-sleeved shirt stood at the front of the crowd and shouted at Lin Ruo. Before the apocalypse, many people might have liked his appearance, but now he looked ferocious and held a boning knife in his hand to threaten Lin Ruo.

With each word he spoke, the knife in his hand moved a little closer to Lin Ruo, and the people around him also stepped forward step by step. They couldn't let this man get what was in the bag.

Lin Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly. These people spoke nicely, but if she actually did what they said, she would only end up losing everything.

"Put your backpack down and we'll let you go."

"Brother, these days are tough. You can't just think about yourself when you find food. How about we share it equally?"

"Hand over the food!"

"We are so hungry, please have mercy."

"Why waste words with him! Just snatch it!"

The crowd surrounded Lin Ruo tightly, offering their advice while slowly approaching her.

"Oh, I see. Then come and take it." Lin Ruo's tone was slightly excited as she arrogantly pointed the military dagger she had just wiped clean at the group, successfully enraging everyone around her who coveted her backpack.

"Everyone, charge!"

Lin Ruo fastened the backpack in front of her, then spun around and delivered a spinning kick to the chest of the first person rushing towards her, this time using all her strength.

"Crack, crack," "ripping," the sounds of bones breaking and flesh tearing kept coming from the person's body.

Blood splattered everywhere. The bloodied figure flew back more than ten meters, knocking down more than a dozen people. Those who were knocked down also fell to the ground without a sound.

The person who was kicked away had a huge round hole in his chest, from which blood was gushing out. Lin Ruo was stunned and looked down at the bloodstains on her feet. She never thought that her full-force kick could actually pierce through a person!

Isn't that kind of power a bit too incredible?

This kick once again chilled the surrounding people to the bone, and they all shrank back in fear. What kind of strength did this person have to be able to kick someone through with one kick!

For them to rush up and snatch things from someone like that is like an old man eating poison—they're asking for trouble!

Food! A whole backpack full of food!

Those around Lin Ruo looked at the backpack on her back, and they all swallowed hard, their long-term hunger driving them to the brink of craving for food.

"H-H-H-Don't be afraid! No matter how strong she is, she's only one person! There are many of us!" Someone shouted from the crowd, reigniting the frenzy.

"Yes! She's all alone!"

"They can't be on guard against us forever!"

As they spoke, more people rushed towards Lin Ruo, their knives slashing at her without hesitation. Lin Ruo shifted her feet, turning to the side, and the man's knife missed its mark, causing him to lean forward involuntarily.

Lin Ruo raised her right hand and delivered an elbow strike to the back of the man's head, this time using half her strength. With another "crack," the man slumped to the ground. This time, the blow didn't penetrate the head, and Lin Ruo secretly made a mental note of it.

After that, people kept rushing towards Lin Ruo. She was extremely fast, quickly weaving through the crowd, constantly testing the right force and speed.

What kind of force can kill without drawing blood, and what kind of force can only incapacitate them...?

More and more people fell in the crowd, faster and faster, but these people seemed to have their reason manipulated, and continued to attack Lin Ruo, their target being her backpack.

"What are you doing!"
