Some of them knew one another and joined in when they saw others make a move. Those who attacked first were not necessarily the strongest people present, but they certainly had some confidence in their own strength.
Yet the crimson-skinned brute's terrifying strength exceeded everyone's expectations. Of the two who charged straight at him, one gripped a dagger, while the other spread both hands, drawing transparent threads from his fingertips and weaving them into a great net that swept toward the man before them.
"Heh!"
The crimson-skinned man had been seething, but now he suddenly smiled. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and a faint red glow rose around him before bursting outward. He shattered the ground beneath his feet and charged at his attackers.
Bam! Bam!
In a single exchange, one of the two attackers was sent flying backward into the distance. The other, sensing danger, immediately used something like a spiderweb to absorb the force, but it seemed useless. The web tore apart, and his body was ripped to pieces-yet those pieces vanished in midair.
A few seconds later, the man who could use webs reappeared on a distant rooftop, pale and gasping for breath.
"He's strong! None of us can take him alone. Everyone, attack together!"
The man who had been knocked away actually returned as well. Blood still stained the corner of his mouth, the clothing over his chest was shredded, and a large red mark remained beneath it. His complexion was just as grim, but he was doing considerably better than anyone would have expected.
"Pah..."
"This bastard has explosive speed and tremendous strength, and his body is incredibly tough, but he can't be all that agile. He's already poisoned. We have a chance if we attack together! You all saw it just now-Dierjia
