First floor of the residential building.
"Snap."
Holding a sharp dagger and after blocking an attack from this strange enemy, Xiao Zhe narrowed his eyes and appraised the unfamiliar middle-aged man in front of him with great interest.
[Similar strength, seems like he's also a Level 2 Psionic Warrior...]
[Breathing rhythm is slightly naive, seems like a novice killer...]
In an instant, Xiao Zhe saw through the middle-aged man's background based on this brief exchange.
"Brother, who hired you to kill me? And you're only carrying a fruit knife, so unprofessional?"
"Look, you and I have no past grievances or recent enmity. How about you grant my wish and tell me who is so heartless as to want my life?"
After a moment of thought, a playful expression suddenly appeared on Xiao Zhe's young face. He looked up, staring directly at Wang Zhong, and curiously asked him.
After speaking, Xiao Zhe focused his gaze and looked at the fruit knife in front of him, which was emitting a faint green glow. He said with a smirk, "Brother, this is your first time working as a killer, right? You even managed to poison this fruit knife, impressive!"
Seeing Xiao Zhe's relaxed and casual demeanor, it was as if he wasn't facing a killer, but a playful friend.
Second-floor staircase.
Wang Zhong, who had just exchanged a move with Xiao Zhe, had a calm expression in his eyes, as if he didn't care at all that his surprise attack had been blocked by Xiao Zhe.
In fact.
The attack Wang Zhong had suddenly launched did not use the full strength of a Level 3 Psionic Warrior, but only half of it, which was equivalent to the strength of a Level 2 Psionic Warrior...
Wang Zhong was not underestimating his opponent, nor was he being arrogant. His goal was to test the difference in strength between himself and Xiao Zhe, given they were both Level 2 Psionic Warriors.
Now, Wang Zhong had his answer.
One step too slow!
Xiao Zhe was a step too slow.
While both possessed the strength of a Level 2 Psionic Warrior, Xiao Zhe, as a killer, was barely able to contend with Wang Zhong, who mastered the Weapon Combat LV2 skill.
[So, the combat technique of a Sain Mechanical Killer is equivalent to this Weapon Combat LV2 level?]
After reaching this conclusion, Wang Zhong took a deep breath. Then, a cold killing intent suddenly appeared in his calm eyes.
From now on, Wang Zhong was going to get serious!
This was also because Wang Zhong's strength surpassed Xiao Zhe's, which allowed him to experiment with reservations earlier. Otherwise, if their strengths were equal, Wang Zhong would likely be in danger.
"Boom!"
The next second, Wang Zhong mobilized his body, which was strengthened by Data Psionic. A thick, blue-black vein on his right arm immediately tensed. His muscles exerted force, and a powerful strength instantly transferred from his right arm to the fruit knife.
Wang Zhong's sudden burst of strength caught Xiao Zhe off guard.
On the opposite side, Xiao Zhe, who had been looking nonchalant, turned cold upon sensing the immense force transmitted from the fruit knife in his hand. He said coldly, "Good, so you had a backup plan."
As he spoke, Xiao Zhe channeled all his strength into the dagger. However, he never expected that even with all his might, he couldn't block the fruit knife that was being thrust towards his neck.
At this moment.
Xiao Zhe was like an ant trying to shake a tree. Even with all his strength, he couldn't budge the right hand holding the fruit knife.
His right hand couldn't move and was forced downwards!
However.
As a killer, Xiao Zhe naturally wouldn't have only one method of attack.
Immediately, Xiao Zhe's free left hand flicked. A gleaming dagger quickly slid out from his left sleeve.
Screech!
His left hand gripped the flashing dagger and fiercely stabbed towards Wang Zhong's heart.
With this move, Xiao Zhe attacked a vital point.
If the killer didn't want to be stabbed in the heart by Xiao Zhe's second dagger, he would have to retreat.
Too bad.
Things did not develop as Xiao Zhe had expected!
Because, the next second, Xiao Zhe was shocked to find that the killer, who seemed like a novice, showed no intention of dodging at all and directly charged his chest towards Xiao Zhe's dagger.
Snap.
Then, Xiao Zhe felt as if his dagger had struck a steel plate, unable to advance even an inch.
At the same time.
The immense force contained within the fruit knife, emitting a faint green psionic glow, suppressed Xiao Zhe's right hand.
This wrestling match, Xiao Zhe lost.
Then, under Xiao Zhe's disbelieving gaze, the fruit knife plunged into his neck, creating a bloody hole.
[What is this, what kind of monster?]
[It's actually invulnerable to blades and spears? And its strength is terrifyingly great?]
Thinking in his mind, Xiao Zhe only felt a chill in his neck, and then, a strange voice sounded in his ear, "Don't rush, take a deep breath, yes, deep breath, you'll feel much better..."
"Gulp."
"Gulp."
At this moment, Xiao Zhe, with a wound on his neck, opened and closed his mouth, and a pool of blood poured into his throat, then flowed out from his mouth.
At this critical moment of life and death, Xiao Zhe suddenly noticed something!
That the fruit knife stuck in his neck was emitting a faint green psionic light.
Instantly, a bolt of lightning struck Xiao Zhe's mind, and he finally understood why he had lost so easily.
[Psionic Attachment]!
The faint green glow attached to the fruit knife was not poison as he had imagined, but a special ability that only a [Level 3 Psionic Warrior] could master.
[Level 3 Psionic Warrior? When did I provoke such a powerful enemy?]
Just as Xiao Zhe was sinking into disbelief...
A large hand filled with immense strength suddenly pressed down on Xiao Zhe's head, and then, with a snap, his neck was twisted and broken.
"Thud!"
The next second, Xiao Zhe, having completely lost all strength, his legs went weak, and he tumbled down the stairs.
"Snap!"
However, a hand wearing a black glove caught Xiao Zhe's corpse.
Wang Zhong squatted down, looking at the familiar corpse before him, a hint of apology flashed in his eyes, which was then replaced by ruthlessness.
If Wang Zhong didn't kill Xiao Zhe, Xiao Zhe would have come to kill him!
In this world, if Wang Zhong wanted to survive, he could not show any mercy to his enemies.
Some things, only when truly done, can one truly understand the principles behind them.
