Upon hearing Wang Ye's voice, everyone's expressions changed sharply. Almost instantly, they each drew their weapons and watched Wang Ye's direction warily.
Several people at the front quickly formed a row, blocking the view of what lay behind them.
Meanwhile, the figures of two people in the rear gradually turned illusory. Shielded by the front row, they vanished into the shadows and silently crept forward.
The entire sequence flowed smoothly, displaying remarkable coordination.
Even Wang Ye was somewhat surprised when he saw it all.
The people of Scavenger City had truly abundant combat experience, and their reactions were incredibly fast. Every one of them was an elite among elites. If their strength truly reached a certain level...
Then wiping them out would be rather troublesome.
Yes, wiping them out.
Wang Ye had never believed these people would protect humanity like Heavenly Gold Guard investigators did.
If...
They were asked to help humanity out, and afterward he gave them a hefty sum of money, then no problem. But expecting them to go without any benefit? Unrealistic.
And once the day of Peace Under Heaven truly arrived, these Scavengers would become the greatest threat.
They had already become completely indifferent to life. In peaceful times, they would be the most unstable element.
For a moment, Wang Ye had a headache.
If his strength had not utterly crushed this group, even if he were only one realm stronger than them, Wang Ye would not have believed he could kill them all.
He might even have risked being killed in return.
As he thought, Wang Ye took two steps forward. With a hint of vexation still on his face, he knocked them all unconscious where they stood.
"Why are you guys so smart?"
"My disguises never last long."
He let out a helpless sigh.
