Murder

Someone was hiding behind Nan Feng's Wooden Cabin!

This was the first human Nan Feng had encountered since crossing into this Primordial World.

Yet he did not feel the slightest bit happy or excited.

In this Primordial World, with no rules and no laws to restrain anyone, Nan Feng had no doubts about the wickedness of human nature.

What was more, Nan Feng was in terrible condition right now—he was under a hallucinatory effect, with too many overlapping images before his eyes to tell what was real and what was illusion.

Nan Feng stopped where he was and did not rush toward the Wooden Cabin.

When he did not know the other party's intentions, keeping his distance could never be wrong.

"Who is this person? What does he want?"

"I remember there was a girl named You Ran in the regional chat. She seemed to be pretty close to me."

"But the person behind this Wooden Cabin looks like a big bald guy..."

"Although I couldn't tell whether they were male or female, no girl would shave her head bald, right? Wouldn't that make her one of those badass online girls?"

Nan Feng let his thoughts run wild while remaining vigilant.

Behind the Wooden Cabin, Huang Peng saw Nan Feng stop advancing and knew he had been discovered.

So Huang Peng stopped hiding as well and swaggered out from behind the Wooden Cabin.

Huang Peng said, "Brother, you're pretty strong. You actually killed a Five-Patterned Snake in just two strikes."

Nan Feng looked at the weapon in his hand. "This is a dagger, not a knife."

"..." Huang Peng froze for a moment, then chuckled. "More or less the same thing."

Nan Feng shook his head and felt that the overlapping images before his eyes had diminished somewhat. The hallucinatory effect was probably weakening.

That was good news for Nan Feng.

Seeing Nan Feng remain silent, Huang Peng spoke on his own. "Brother, I spotted this Five-Patterned Snake first. I chased it all the way here, but I didn't expect you to kill it."

"Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"

Nan Feng sneered. "Compensate you? How about I catch another Five-Patterned Snake and give it to you?"

Nan Feng did not believe a word Huang Peng said.

If he had truly chased the Five-Patterned Snake here, Huang Peng must have seen Nan Feng use the Desert Eagle.

Knowing that Nan Feng had a gun, how could Huang Peng dare leave cover and swagger out from behind the Wooden Cabin?

Wasn't that like looking for shit with a lantern—asking for trouble?

Huang Peng heard the hostility in Nan Feng's tone, and his face immediately darkened. "Brother, I'm trying to negotiate nicely with you. Don't be ungrateful!"

"You got bitten several times by that Five-Patterned Snake. You probably don't have much health left now, do you?"

"You still dare act tough in front of me? Believe it or not, I'll chop you to death with one swing of my axe?"

As he spoke, Huang Peng waved the wooden axe in his hand and started walking over.

Seeing this, Nan Feng hurriedly placed his right hand behind his back. Where Huang Peng could not see, he put the Wooden Dagger into his backpack and took out the Desert Eagle.

"What are you trying to do? I advise you not to come any closer. Someone Nan isn't someone you can push around."

If his vision were not still blurry, Nan Feng would not have wasted so much breath talking to Huang Peng. He would have fired two shots first and crippled the guy before anything else.

But now, Nan Feng needed to wait until the other party came closer and lowered his guard further.

Otherwise, if the first shot missed, Nan Feng would be put in a very passive position.

When Huang Peng heard Nan Feng soften his tone, he thought Nan Feng was scared and could not help but chuckle. "I'm a civilized man too. If we can reason things out, I definitely won't resort to violence. How about this? Give me everything the Five-Patterned Snake dropped."

Nan Feng rubbed his eyes and nodded casually. "Sure. No problem."

Seeing Nan Feng agree so readily, Huang Peng immediately pushed his luck. "Oh, right. You killed my prey and made me lose 10 experience points. That won't do. I'm just 10 experience points away from reaching Level 2."

"How about this? Starting now, you follow me. You can act as bait to lure in fierce beasts, and I'll be responsible for killing them."

"Don't worry. I'll reach Level 2 after killing one more fierce beast, and I'll definitely be able to keep you safe."

"Or you could just become my servant. During the day, you'll lure fierce beasts, and at night, you can wash my feet and massage my back..."

Nan Feng rolled his eyes as he listened. This asshole was getting more and more carried away.

After rubbing his eyes again, Nan Feng felt that the overlapping images had eased considerably.

At this distance, Nan Feng was one hundred percent certain he could hit Huang Peng with a single shot.

With that thought, Nan Feng interrupted the still-chattering Huang Peng. "Brother, I have an idea. How about you become my servant instead?"

Huang Peng dug at his ear and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Nan Feng repeated himself. "I said, you become my servant."

Huang Peng gave a disdainful laugh, and his expression slowly turned vicious. "I gave you a chance to live, but you insist on dying."

"You don't think this is some game, do you? That you can revive after dying?"

"Let me tell you, I killed an uncooperative bastard just half an hour ago. I even chopped him into chunks of meat and used them to lure fierce beasts."

"In this world, death means real death."

Nan Feng slowly frowned when he heard that. "You killed someone just now?"

Huang Peng burst into laughter, raised his wooden axe, and slowly walked toward Nan Feng. "Not just now. I was originally a murderer, and I was supposed to be executed by firing squad today. Thanks to that Genesis System, I came to this world and regained my freedom."

"This lawless world really is my paradise!"

Nan Feng finally understood.

No wonder this bald man dared wander alone through a forest overrun by fierce beasts.

He was a daring, deeply guilty murderer to begin with.

By now, Huang Peng was getting closer and closer to Nan Feng. Nan Feng could even feel the killing intent radiating from him!

He could not let him get any closer!

With that thought, Nan Feng no longer hesitated. He decisively pulled out the Desert Eagle and aimed it at Huang Peng.

Whoosh!

Weakness Strike: -91!

At such close range, Huang Peng had not even seen clearly what Nan Feng was holding before the shot blew apart his head!

"Aah!!"

Huang Peng screamed and staggered back several steps, clutching his face!

Nan Feng was startled as well—this shot had actually failed to kill him!

"Damn, he didn't die after losing 91 health?"

"This bald guy has over a hundred health at Level 1?"

Nan Feng raised his gun at Huang Peng again, but he hesitated over whether to fire.

Killing someone was still too unfamiliar a concept to Nan Feng.

Having grown up in modern society, Nan Feng still possessed the most basic respect for life.

Seeing that Nan Feng was still hesitating, Huang Peng immediately gritted his teeth, swung his wooden axe, and slashed at Nan Feng!

Nan Feng might not dare to kill, but Huang Peng did!

His hands had long been soaked in blood. One more life—Nan Feng's—made no difference!

Seeing this, Nan Feng let out a long breath. "If you're going to be like this, then I won't feel any psychological pressure."

"Today, I'll execute you by firing squad."

Nan Feng raised his hand and fired another shot!

A Mana Bullet shot out of the Desert Eagle and struck Huang Peng in the abdomen.

Boom!

-60!

Huang Peng's eyes widened. With a thud, he fell to the ground, lifeless.

Huang Peng had thought coming to this world meant a new life, but fate had toyed with him. He still could not escape the fate of being executed by firing squad.

Even at death, he could not understand how the Wooden Dagger in Nan Feng's hand had suddenly turned into a gun.

Crash.

A pile of items burst out beside Huang Peng.

Among them, two small wooden plaques caught Nan Feng's attention.

Ding! You obtained Demolition Permit (Huang Peng) *1

Ding! You obtained Demolition Permit (Chen Ping) *1

Demolition Permit: When each Chosen One dies, this item will drop. Holding this item allows you to demolish the corresponding Chosen One's camp buildings. (Note: Demolishing buildings recovers materials such as wood and stone.)

Simply put, with this item, Nan Feng could demolish Huang Peng's Wooden Cabin.

Nan Feng muttered, "I wonder how much wood I can get from demolishing a Wooden Cabin? Tomorrow, I can look for Huang Peng's Wooden Cabin and tear it down while I'm at it."

Huang Peng had dropped two Demolition Permits, one of which belonged to Chen Ping.

This Chosen One named Chen Ping was probably the unlucky fellow Huang Peng had killed half an hour ago.

Aside from the Demolition Permits, Huang Peng had dropped many other items.
