Chapter 185: 117 Fierce Battle (Second Update)_2

The huge fire fist collided with the metal shield and dissipated within a second, transforming back into searing firepower that disappeared into the void.

Liu Meng hadn’t expected his attack to be blocked so easily; his face grew paler, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Besides him, two others in the SUV survived, though both were seriously injured. Liu Meng’s words forced them to pick up their guns and fire. This time, their bullets weren’t stopped by that peculiar force, but before they could rejoice, bullets from the vehicle opposite struck their own!

Damn it! Where did these freaks come from! Their shooting skills are absurd!

The two couldn’t help but curse inwardly; to survive, they had no choice but to keep firing. This time, they shot even more frantically, but soon, they discovered something even more terrifying.

A soft click, not as loud as the sound of bullets being fired, yet it brought them utter despair!

No more bullets!

Liu Meng, too, had run out of bullets; he had fired too rapidly and had quickly used them all up.

Terrified, Liu Meng yelled, "We surrender! Surrender! Don’t shoot!"

As soon as he spoke, the gunfire indeed stopped. At that moment, Liu Meng’s SUV was riddled with bullet holes. He looked at his deceased subordinates and the pockmarked vehicle and nearly felt like spitting blood!

He signaled the remaining two to quickly change their magazines and then shouted loudly, "The whole incident was a misunderstanding! I am willing to offer a hundred Crystal Cores as an apology, please let bygones be bygones."

Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang had seen the firefight as they emerged from the ruins; since it didn’t involve them, they didn’t interfere but chose instead to watch from the side.

Hearing Liu Meng’s words, the siblings couldn’t help but laugh. Fang Yuxin whispered, "Brother, who is this Liu Meng? Offering only a hundred Crystal Cores, isn’t he being too stingy?"

Fang Yuyang disdainfully said, "The energy fluctuations from him are quite strong. I didn’t expect him to be so useless!"

Fang Yuxin shook her head and laughed, "This guy must have been mingling in the underworld. From his energy fluctuations, his superpower has already reached the Basic-level Peak and is about to breakthrough. But you’re right, he’s really useless. He must have been hiding in the Safe Zone cultivating all this time, hardly ever hunting zombies."

Fang Yuyang was slightly surprised; he had realized Liu Meng’s energy fluctuations were strong and thought his skills should be good, yet he hadn’t expected that Liu Meng was already at Basic-level Peak.

He felt Fang Yuxin was probably right, this man’s actual combat ability was lacking; obviously, he was busy cultivating and hadn’t trained much in superpower combat, otherwise, how could he have ended up in such a predicament?

Not many people came to these ruins, and it was suspicious that he was here. He asked, "Xinxin, why do you think he came here?"

Fang Yuxin narrowed her eyes; she had used her Spiritual Sense to check the inside of the vehicle and spotted someone familiar. Though it was just a brief glance, she remembered him upon seeing him again.

She frowned and whispered, "Brother, this guy is probably here for us. There’s someone in the car we’ve encountered before."

Fang Yuyang had also guessed Liu Meng was targeting them, but hearing Fang Yuxin’s words still shocked him deeply, "Who?" he asked, swiftly recalling in his mind.

Fang Yuxin figured he probably couldn’t remember because they had only brushed past that person, who hadn’t shown any abnormal behavior, so how could Fang Yuyang guess it was him?

She said, "Brother, do you remember? When we came from the front earlier, there was a sly-looking skinny guy standing by the roadside; we passed right by him."

Fang Yuyang remembered the man; it was just a fleeting moment, and since the man hadn’t shown any abnormal behavior, he hadn’t paid attention. After hearing from Fang Yuxin, he recalled.

"So it’s him!"

While they were talking, the situation changed again. The people in the SUV also thought a hundred Crystal Cores were too few and demanded a thousand, a number that severely provoked Liu Meng; he simply didn’t have that many!

Just as they had replaced their magazines, he opened fire again.

Such action was undoubtedly a provocation to the people in the SUV!

Bullets fired in rapid succession, but just like before, they stopped mid-air and were swiftly shot back!

Screams came from inside the car; though Liu Meng was lucky enough to dodge, his two subordinates both got hit—one’s head exploded, and the other, although not dead, was severely wounded and collapsed, no longer able to fire.

Liu Meng had not expected his subordinates to be so useless; he cursed and again yelled at the people opposite, "Wait! Wait! I’ll give you a thousand Crystal Cores! Spare me!"

This time, the people in the SUV didn’t continue to haggle but stated, "If you don’t want to die, get out of the car now!"

Liu Meng hesitated; he could still have cover if he stayed inside the car, but if he got out, wouldn’t he be an easy target? He cautiously asked, "If you promise not to kill me, I’ll get out right now!"

The people in the car were infuriated by his hesitation, disdainfully saying, "Do you think you have a choice? Either get out now or die inside!"

Fang Yuyang suddenly frowned, turned to Fang Yuxin, and asked, "Xinxin, doesn’t this voice sound very familiar?" (To be continued.
