Chapter 188: Don't Move, You've Been Surrounded By Me (3)

Then, he jumped onto the roof and used his saber to scoop up the burning grass before throwing it at the bandits below.

Tch tch tch —

The sound of weapons cutting through grass rang out, and the broken, burning straw fell to the ground like balls of fire.

By the time Dorton and the others looked at the roof again, they realized belatedly that Zhou Jing had already disappeared.

“This guy ran away!”

Everyone looked as though they wanted to chase after him.

“Don’t chase! This person is too fast. If you chase after him, you will only be exhausted to death by him.” Dorton hurriedly stopped his companions.

As soon as he finished speaking, the bandits stopped in their tracks and looked around warily, afraid that Zhou Jing would suddenly turn around.

After a while, the surroundings were silent. The villains carefully checked their surroundings before confirming that Zhou Jing was temporarily far away. They all heaved a sigh of relief, but their hearts felt very heavy upon recalling the person’s ferocity.

“Who is this person? He’s too powerful.”

“It feels like he’s a hunter with four enhancements. It’s impossible for him to not be famous!”

“Since when did Deep Rock City have such a person? He’s most likely an outsider. He might have just arrived.”

Everyone was nervous.

They only decided to take action after figuring out the strength of Deep Rock City but did not account for such a fierce man to suddenly appear.

The excitement of breaking through Deep Rock City disappeared, and everyone’s hearts sank.

“Let’s ignore him for now and return to the stronghold to take a look.” Dorton had a bad feeling. He couldn’t care less about the soreness in his arms and quickly led everyone on their way.

Not long after, the group of bandits returned to the stronghold and realized that the place was empty. The accomplices who had stayed behind had all turned into corpses.

The captured craftsmen and hunters had all disappeared, and even the supplies they had plundered and hoarded had decreased greatly.

“He had companions!”

When everyone saw this scene, they immediately realized why Zhou Jing was blocking the way alone. They were shocked and furious.

Dorton’s face was ashen.

He roughly understood that this group of people was definitely not hiding in the city in advance. Perhaps it was an outside party who had just arrived in Deep Rock City not long ago at the wrong moment and ruined their plan!

“Too bloody unlucky!” Dorton fumed.

After spending so much effort to attack a fortress city, of course, it was not just for the sake of supplies but also to capture a large number of workshop craftsmen… Dorton was someone with great ambition. He was no longer satisfied with small fights but wanted to build a base and do something big.

Therefore, they had to bring back blacksmiths, pharmacists, and other technical workers to force them to work… Other than within the towns, there were no workshops elsewhere, so they could only attack the towns and cities.

If the captives were freed, their efforts to break into Deep Rock City would be in vain.

“What do we do now?”

Many of his companions turned to look at Dorton with hesitant expressions.

They were both afraid of Zhou Jing’s existence yet unwilling to return empty-handed.

Dorton’s expression steeled as he gritted his teeth. “It’s only been a while, so the paralyzing potion is still in effect. The city hunters have yet to recover their combat strength, so we don’t have to worry about them joining the battle… Those captives must have been hidden. We won’t plunder the other supplies. As long as we find these guys, we’ll leave immediately!”

“What about that guy just now?”

Hearing this, Dorton thought of Zhou Jing’s combat strength just now and couldn’t help but feel afraid as well.

However, the many companions around him gave him confidence. After calculating for a while, he was still unwilling to be scared off by a single person and return empty-handed. His gaze turned fierce.

“We shouldn’t be alone anymore. If he dares to come, we’ll fight again. Although he’s powerful, it’s not like we have no chance of winning!”

…

“This group should be frightened by me. I wonder if they will evacuate.”

Zhou Jing ran through the burning streets, his mind racing.

There were too many enemies, and they even possessed some strange props, so it was quite stressful to fight them. He temporarily retreated because he did not want to fight to the death. After all, he had the advantage of speed, so it was better to utilize kiting tactics and guerilla warfare.

It would be best if he could appear from time to time and launch sneak attacks. Each time, he could kill a few people and then immediately escape. He could slowly whittle down this group of people and even bring mental pressure on the enemy. This would give him more initiative than fighting head-on.

“I’ve blocked the enemy’s main force for so long, so I should have bought enough time for the team. Let’s meet up with them first, the more helpers we have, the better.”

Zhou Jing stopped in his tracks and jumped onto the top of the alley wall, looking around.

First of all, he had to think of a way to find his teammates. He did not know where they were hiding at this moment…

It was a pity that he did not bring Ross along on this trip and left the Dumb-dumb in the capital to train hard. Otherwise, having him follow the team at this moment would be equivalent to having a GPS.

However, on second thought, Zhou Jing felt that it might be a blessing. This time, he actually bumped into an acquaintance from White Plains Town. Fortunately, he did not bring Ross along. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain…

He could still barely explain if his face simply looked alike. If Ross were to show his face again, it would be too recognizable.

However, even so, there was still a risk of being exposed… It was just that Weber would most likely not think that “Jason” had been resurrected. This exceeded the common sense of the Mutant World.

“I still have to talk to Weber after this. When I was using Jason’s identity, we were partners. Even if he recognizes my appearance, he shouldn’t have any ill intentions.” Zhou Jing thought.

Just as he was about to determine his direction and prepare to look for his teammates, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps not far away, accompanied by the strange sound of air being torn apart.

He looked in the direction of the voice. In the alley not far away, there seemed to be two figures chasing each other.

One of them was dressed as a bandit and was very fast. He was chasing behind and should be alone in the pursuit. He had not been attracted by the commotion of the battle just now.

The person who escaped was like an ordinary civilian, and his physical fitness was not much different from an ordinary person.

It didn’t seem strange, but when Zhou Jing looked over, he was slightly stunned and discovered a strange phenomenon.

On the ground where the escapee rushed past, spikes kept rising up and shooting toward the bandit chasing after him.

However, the bandit seemed to be already prepared. He constantly waved his weapon to block the incoming spikes.

The fleeing man’s face was covered in sweat. He suddenly turned around and grabbed at the air. An earthen wall rose from the ground, blocking the two of them.

Peng!

However, in the next moment, the mud wall was shattered by the pursuing bandit. His footsteps only paused for a moment.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Jing’s eyes were filled with surprise.

“Oh, I seem to have discovered an interesting fellow…”
