Wang Hao narrowed his eyes, secretly observing his surroundings as he tried to pinpoint the assassins' locations. At this moment, it was becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish who was the hunter and who was the prey.
"There really are more than three people. It seems this is a do-or-die situation." There was no fear in Wang Hao's eyes, but rather an excited look, which brought back that feeling he used to have.
He stared at the fence on the other side of the old residential area, where gun barrels were coldly pointed at the woods in the shadows of the trees. At that moment, his perception of the killing intent transcended his own level.
There were seven people lying in wait outside, ready to rush out of the dense forest and launch a counterattack.
If he mistakenly believes that only three people have come and confidently goes out to counter-hunt, he will most likely get into trouble and die a bloody death.
Most importantly, he vaguely sensed that there were gun barrels pointing menacingly at the woods further away, giving him no chance to escape.
Wang Hao kept changing his position to avoid being locked onto by guns, but he was unwilling to just guard like this and do nothing.
No matter what, we must keep these people here and delay them for as long as possible to buy some time for Chi Tu and the others who are coming soon.
He picked up a fist-sized stone from under the tree roots and weighed it in his hand.
Wang Hao chuckled. Although the weapon in his hand was too primitive, it was all about who was using it. Even a leaf could be a super weapon of mass destruction in the hands of a high-level cultivator.
"Perfect timing to test my newly learned pupil technique," Wang Hao murmured. Then, the spiritual energy within his body circulated rapidly, and in an instant, a faint white light flowed in his eyes.
A moment later, his eyes began to sparkle, like two bright stars in the night.
At that moment, although he was far away from the enemy, he could still clearly pinpoint the gunman's location, and even see the eyes under the hood and the tattoos on his exposed arm.
Wang Hao couldn't leave the dense forest, otherwise the other party would immediately lock onto him. In an open area, without rows of thick tree trunks to block his way, the other party, with the help of high technology, would not be weaker than him in terms of perception, and would be even more lethal.
But eventually, he got his chance. The gunman outside the fence never imagined that someone could clearly see everything about him in the dark.
Wang Hao activated his "Spiritual Eye" to its fullest extent, predicting that one of the gunmen was about to get up. It turned out that the other party was somewhat relaxed and thought that he was just lucky to have made a breakthrough in the useless technique.
Wang Hao gripped the stone tightly, then suddenly exerted force with his right hand, throwing the fist-sized rock with astonishing power and speed that defied comprehension, even producing a sound as it pierced the air.
"Bang!"
The moment the man peeked out, a stone flew and struck him squarely on the forehead. He didn't even groan before falling backward with a soft thud.
The two people nearby quickly turned around and looked at him. They could hardly believe their eyes. Their companion's forehead was sunken, and red blood mixed with white brain matter was flowing out wildly.
They opened their mouths, their eyes filled with shock, completely unable to understand or accept this outcome. They even rubbed their eyes, wondering if they had seen wrong.
It's like trying to bombard primitive tribes with an RPG, only to get stabbed to death with a spear – it makes absolutely no sense!
They were all elite gunmen, professionals, who came to kill someone who practiced useless techniques, only to have their skulls opened by a stone, their brains spilling out onto the ground.
Having gone on so many missions and killed so many experts, this is the first time I've encountered something so outrageous.
"Bang bang bang!"
In the instant Wang Hao changed position, several bullets flew past, some hitting tree trunks and others hitting the grass, making a slight sound and kicking up a patch of dirt.
Wang Hao darted deep into the woods, hiding behind a thick tree trunk. His heart was pounding. The people outside seemed to be enraged, firing continuously into the forest.
Those people stopped waiting and started firing wildly without any regard for the consequences. Clearly, they had powerful backers who could quell the situation even if it alarmed the citizens.
With swift, mysterious steps, Wang Hao moved as lightly as a swallow and quickly ran behind a large blue stone. It was a landscape stone, but people also used it as a bench. Now it had become the best cover.
"Bang bang bang!"
Many bullets hit the boulder, and broken pieces of rock were scattered everywhere.
"You're ruthless. Don't let me find out who you are, or I'll wipe you out completely." Wang Hao's killing intent reached its peak, and he no longer intended to preserve his spiritual energy.
Suddenly, the forest fell silent. He saw several figures carrying the man who had fallen to the ground, and they dispersed and retreated swiftly and agilely.
Wang Hao knew this was an opportunity, and immediately leaped up like a cat, finding a steel bar more than half a meter long in the woods. There was really nothing else more handy.
He crouched low, moving swiftly and silently, his pupils flashing with a white light as he aimed at an enemy ahead. Then, he suddenly swung his arm, creating a loud bang in the air.
"Bang!"
Among the retreating crowd in the distance, one person suddenly stumbled forward and fell to the ground with a thud. His eyes widened, and he made a painful sound.
A gaping hole appeared in his chest, his heart ruptured.
A steel rod was thrown out and landed more than twenty meters away. After hitting the ground, it made a crisp metallic sound. The terrifying force caused the paving stones in that spot to shatter instantly.
The expressions on the faces of the others changed drastically. Just how powerful must that be? To throw a steel bar with bare hands from such a distance was terrifying and sent chills down their spines.
"Quick, get out of here!" someone whispered. They lifted up the person who had fallen to the ground and left quickly, not daring to linger.
Meanwhile, someone was spraying something on the bloodstains on the road; they were clearly professionals who had done this kind of assassination before.
Wang Hao sneered and prepared to charge forward, but as soon as he showed his head, a sense of impending death struck him, and he quickly pulled his head back in fright.
"Bang!"
A bullet grazed his head, breaking a few strands of hair, and there was a slight smell of burning.
"There's another sniper rifle further away?!" Wang Hao was shocked. If he hadn't been alert, he probably would have been shot in the head by now.
However, seeing that these people have already begun to retreat, the other side must have received some news, and it is estimated that the people from Chitu are about to arrive.
Wang Hao suppressed his impulse and did not pursue the enemy, but stood in the forest and waited silently.
Sure enough, the people from Chitu arrived shortly afterward. From the time Wang Hao contacted them until they arrived, less than ten minutes had passed, which was astonishingly fast and extremely efficient.
Unfortunately, the group was extremely vigilant and had already retreated beforehand; otherwise, they could have easily wiped out the entire group and forced them to reveal the forces behind them.
"Go and hunt them down! Find out the truth for me! How dare they commit murder in the capital, and in a residential area no less! I want to see who this outlaw is!"
Chi Tu came in person, bringing a group of people, and ordered them to follow the clues.
