I was so honest, so cooperative, so adorable...
Why did they still want to kill me?
Wang Teng didn't understand!
Mom had been right. A handsome and adorable Rich Second Generation like him had to protect himself when he went out!
The outside world was too dangerous!
One careless step, and his life could be in danger.
He walked toward the lead robber step by step, trembling all over... Kill them. I have to kill them. They're all vicious, evil criminals!
One step!
Two steps!
As he drew closer and closer, the other hostages looked at him with pity.
Though they pitied him, there was also a faint trace of relief in their eyes—relief that the first one to die would not be them.
They were trembling too.
Such an adorable boy, and those robbers still wouldn't spare him. They were vicious beyond all bounds! Why hadn't the police helicopter arrived yet?
If it didn't come soon, they would be the next ones to die!
Kill them!
Kill them!
Wang Teng's mentality collapsed.
He was incredibly nervous now. His palms, back, and forehead were all drenched in sweat!
Other than killing them, there was no other way!
Three steps, four steps... soon, he was less than half a meter from the lead robber.
"Move it! Get your ass over here!" the lead robber shouted impatiently.
Enough!
Close enough!
He couldn't wait any longer.
Wang Teng abruptly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot.
"Why are you forcing me?"
"??"
The lead robber figured Wang Teng had probably been scared out of his wits and was already babbling nonsense.
But the next moment, the several robbers and all the hostages widened their eyes.
The lead robber looked as though he had seen a ghost!
What had he just seen?
The hostage who had clearly been like a Little Lamb just moments ago suddenly transformed into an enraged, crazed Savage Bear.
His presence changed in an instant!
"I..."
All this seemed slow, yet happened fast!
The instant Wang Teng raised his head, he did not hesitate in the slightest. His resolve was as hard as iron as he stomped down fiercely.
Boom!
The tiled floor shattered outright, fragments of stone spraying in every direction.
Force surged up from beneath his feet and propelled Wang Teng forward. Like an arrow loosed from a crossbow, he pounced before the lead robber in an instant.
Maximum speed, Micro-level Movement Technique, fully unleashed!
He crossed the distance of less than half a meter in under a second.
The lead robber could see it, but he could not keep up.
Wang Teng wielded his fist like a hammer, raising it high and smashing it down. In the man's horrified eyes, the fist grew larger and larger.
"...Fuck!"
Before he could finish the word, Wang Teng's full-force blow had already struck his head.
Bang!
How terrifying was over a thousand kilograms of force?
It was probably like having a huge truck roll over one's head!
Crack!
The sound was crisp as a fine watermelon burst apart just like that!
First blood!
It shattered...
Yet Wang Teng felt nothing at all. His mind was filled only with the threat of death. He had taken down one; four remained!
They had guns. Too terrifying!
He had to end this quickly!
So he did not pause in the slightest.
He grabbed the lead robber's body and hurled it at Scarface behind him.
Wang Teng followed close behind.
At that moment, his mind spun at high speed, and all the Basic Combat Skills he had mastered seemed to melt together in a single furnace.
His movement technique fused into his speed.
Sword techniques and saber techniques fused into his fist techniques.
With no weapon in hand, his fists were swords, and his legs were sabers.
The lead robber's body slammed into Scarface, catching him completely off guard. Wang Teng swept out from the left with a leg like a blade.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking rang out clearly!
Boom!
He flew sideways and crashed into the wall, blood spilling from his mouth. His head tilted, and he lost consciousness.
Double kill!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The remaining three robbers looked terrified, but they finally reacted and opened fire on Wang Teng.
Empowered by runes, the bullets poured forth faster and with greater force.
Whoosh!
The bullets seemed to tear through the air, carrying shrill, piercing whistles as they targeted Wang Teng's vital points.
His head, heart, thighs...
Wang Teng had been prepared. After taking down Scarface in one strike, he tucked his body in...
And performed a perfect donkey roll!
He rolled beneath the workbench.
Boom!
The bullets struck the wall and blasted a huge crater into it.
Wang Teng glanced at it, lingering fear filling his heart.
Good thing he hadn't rashly resisted earlier!
With that kind of power, getting hit would definitely leave a bloody hole. Even an Advanced Martial Apprentice's physique could not withstand it.
The thought flashed through his mind.
He immediately grabbed a chair in front of him and threw it out, while he darted out from the other side.
The three robbers were on edge. Seeing something fly out, they instinctively fired several shots at it.
"Not good!"
But the moment they fired, they knew things had gone wrong!
Wang Teng gave them no time for regret. He charged in from the other side, throwing a punch that struck one robber's temple.
The robber's body swayed, then he fell to the floor with a thud.
Triple kill!
Another one taken down.
Then he turned toward a robber two meters away from him.
Wang Teng remembered him. He was the one who had first suggested killing him.
So Wang Teng hit even harder, clasping both hands together and smashing down like a heavy hammer, sending the robber flying three meters away.
Quadra kill!
Bang! Bang!
The last robber was the one who had been driving earlier.
Seeing Wang Teng's ferocity, and seeing his companions either dead or severely injured after only a few exchanges under Wang Teng's hands—
He was so frightened that he kept backing away, hurriedly firing several shots at Wang Teng!
Wang Teng flashed aside and arrived at his flank. He punched, using the simplest Thrusting Sword move from the Basic Sword Technique.
One move!
Just one more move!
The robber fell.
Penta kill!
None of the five robbers escaped. From Wang Teng's sudden eruption to the end of the battle, less than a minute had passed!
The hostages were dumbstruck!
Their mouths hung open, but no sound came out.
The injured middle-aged woman seemed to have temporarily forgotten her pain as well, staring blankly at him.
They were both hostages, so why were you so outstanding? So ferocious!
We agreed to tremble together, but you killed all the robbers. You had to be a demon, right?
"Huff, huff, huff!"
All five robbers had fallen, and Wang Teng's taut nerves finally relaxed. He panted heavily.
Tired!
A wave of exhaustion washed over him.
Though this battle had lasted only a few dozen seconds, under the threat of death his mind had been stretched taut, adrenaline had surged wildly, and his bodily functions had run at high speed. The drain on both his mind and body had been immense.
"Why did you have to force me?"
Wang Teng muttered to himself. His gaze swept across the room, and his face suddenly turned pale.
The miserable state of the robbers churned his stomach, and waves of acid seemed ready to surge up his throat.
He hurriedly turned his head away, only to meet the eyes of the hostages.
Their faces were full of terror and equally pale. Several of them had even retreated into the corners to vomit.
The way they looked at Wang Teng was somewhat strange. It was nothing like looking at a pure and kind high school student...
Instead, it was like looking at a deranged serial killer!
"If I said I'm a good person, would you believe me?" Wang Teng asked with a sincere expression.
The hostages instinctively shook their heads together, but immediately came to their senses and nodded desperately instead.
Yet their guilty expressions were not persuasive in the slightest...
Next week, this will be getting a recommendation slot, so remember to come support it~
We'll see how it performs then. If the results are good, I'll do what I can and set up some bonus-update rules, but please don't place too much hope in my typing speed, hahaha.
