Chapter 451 Eletrocuted

Zhang Heng said nothing after that. The moment the enemy took out the Plasticine, he knew it was useless explaining anything to them. The group allegedly believed that Fan Meinan was the mysterious woman in sungla.s.ses who had appeared at the auction that day—the three powerful guilds and the players’ chamber of commerce offered handsome and lavish rewards for her capture, and as of now, she was like a walking cash bag that would make any player go after her.

The jacketed man with the bleeding nose took out a white glove from his pocket and slipped it over his hand. He snapped his fingers, and blue electrical arcs started dancing around them. The leader who was standing nearby swallowed a pill. Ten seconds later, the muscles of his left arm began to bulge, ripping his sleeves apart. His arm’s size had now tripled, brawny and strapping like a world weightlifting champion.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t fight back. Otherwise, things might turn ugly,” scowled the jacketed man. “Just save us all that trouble and surrender now.”

“Is that so? I’m afraid you will be troubled for a while, then.” Zhang Heng pulled a folding knife from his backpack’s side pocket. Although he had fought multiple enemies in one go before, this was his first time going up against numerous players simultaneously. “In that case, let’s fight. Once we capture you, we’ll become the richest players on the planet.”

The leader then lifted a decorative stone on the gra.s.s beside him and hurled it at Zhang Heng. It was hard to describe just how powerful his left arm was, seeing how the rock he threw flew towards Zhang Heng like a smoking cannonball. To avoid the incoming blow, Zhang Heng ducked immediately and rolled on the ground.

Simultaneously, the jacketed man made his move as well, undoing a copper chain accessory that was on his jacket and held it in his gloved hand. He instantly conducted the electricity on his hand to the copper chain. Then, he threw it at Zhang Heng in a fury, who had thankfully blocked the electrified metal with this backpack. At the same time, the second enemy on the other side charged at Zhang Heng as well.

It appeared that this little team must have been together for a while now, seeing how they executed almost perfect teamwork. Generally, a team like that wouldn’t carry too many game items on them, allowing them to focus on bringing out the items’ full potential. Just like the glove that could generate electricity, the jacketed man had figured how to use a copper chain to carry out a mid-ranged attack. Besides, a chain would be a lot more challenging to defend than bare palms.

However, Zhang Heng’s skills went beyond their expectations. As they didn’t use too many game items to fight, Zhang Heng managed to block a joint attack from two a.s.sailants with his folding knife—though it seemed Zhang Heng was on the losing side, it was worth noting that he was fighting two opponents that were using supernatural powers against him.

A player who relied purely on his combat skills?!

The leader and the jacketed man glanced at each other, surprised by Zhang Heng’s expertise. At the same time, they were relieved. Battles between players were notoriously unpredictable, especially when they encountered unfamiliar players with unfamiliar game items. Even a single game item could drastically change the outcome of a battle.

Initially, they planned to become invisible by using a game item, hoping to keep Zhang Heng under control. Unfortunately, instead of getting their bounty, Zhang Heng managed to free himself, and the jacketed man’s nose had been bleeding until now. To stop the bleeding, he had stuffed tissue up his nostrils. What worried them the worst, however, were the unique game items that Zhang Heng possessed.
