Once, I wanted to be a good person

"Fuck!"

Witnessing the scene that resembled the apocalypse, Fang Ze's heart "thump, thump, thump" pounded fiercely in that instant. He only had time to shout in his mind, "Usurious loan! Borrow 10x jumping boost! One-time! Confirm!"

Then he exhausted all his strength to leap to the side!

At that moment, time seemed to slow down.

Fang Ze even felt as if he could see "every frame of movement" of his jump.

And as he jumped into mid-air, those forty or fifty Giant Tree People also "slowly" leapt to his direct overhead.

Fang Ze felt as though he could see their raised huge hands, could see their ugly faces, could feel the oppressive airflow beating down on him...

And just at this critical juncture, the rabbit with wings finally leaped out in front of him.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The rabbit's crimson eyes mechanically gazed at Fang Ze, "Usurious loan: 10x jumping boost, one-time, borrowing successful."

Time seemed to return to normal in that instant.

Originally jumping into the air and already feeling exhausted, Fang Ze suddenly felt a surge of immense force within him.

His body, as if equipped with a spring, shot backwards dozens of meters, narrowly leaving the area of the Giant Tree People's attack!

And at that very moment he was propelled away, those dozens of Giant Tree People fell to the ground like cannonballs, one after another. Find your next adventure on empire

Only to hear "boom! boom! boom! boom!" resounding as if the heavens themselves were shaking. Dust was thrown into the air, stones flew apart, the earth quaked and the mountains swayed.

Even standing ten or so meters away from the scene, Fang Ze still felt as if there was an earthquake, nearly falling to the ground.

Having to resort to such a usurious loan to narrowly escape this attack also made Fang Ze realize he could no longer wait!

Seeing the way his opponent was toying with him like a cat with a mouse, who knew how many more tricks they had yet to play.

Especially since this was all forest, clearly the home turf of his opponent, dragging this out would only leave him even more at a disadvantage.

The plan had to be executed!

Thinking this, he no longer hesitated.

Through the dust, his gaze firmly fixed on the ranger's figure.

Then gripping one of the two iron spears in his hand, he coordinated his whole body's muscles: legs with waist, waist with back, back with shoulders, shoulders with elbows! His muscles tightened into a cord of steel, and then he violently threw the iron spear towards the ranger!

Throwing Stick! The only Martial Skill Fang Ze had mastered!

With the boost of the Martial Skill's power, the distance of a dozen meters was covered in a blink, and with a "whoosh" of the wind, the Throwing Stick shot right in front of the ranger!

The ranger, upon seeing Fang Ze dodge the group attack of the Giant Tree People, was a little surprised.

But before his surprise could subside, he heard the sound of the raging wind coming from not far away.

By the time he came to his senses, he saw an iron spear, carrying a humming sound, flying straight towards him. Then "thump," it hit him squarely in the chest with a dull thud.

Hit by the immense force, the ranger's body involuntarily bent slightly, and a trace of pain crossed his face.

But... only a trace. In just a moment, he gritted his teeth, patted his chest, and tossed the iron spear to the ground with a "clang…"

A large hole had been torn in his green clothing at the chest, revealing his bronze skin underneath.

And on that skin... not even a white mark was left...

His gaze ice-cold, the ranger looked at Fang Ze and said, "It seems you truly don't understand the gap between a low-level Awakener and a high-level one."

"For someone like me who has Fused with all the Law Fragments of the World's Laws, your attacks are useless."

"However... you've managed to hurt this ant."

"I'm not planning to play any longer."

Having said that, he looked ferociously at Fang Ze, raising his hands high as if readying some terrifying big move.

At this moment, Fang Ze watched the preceding scene with shock, nervousness, and unease filling his heart...

Strong.

Really strong.

Although this attack was only to gauge the opponent's defensive power, the fact that it did not even scratch their skin was still almost unbelievable to Fang Ze.

The Shadow Warriors being non-corporeal and the ranger protected by the Laws, Fang Ze could understand not being able to harm him, but his own iron spears made of refined steel, even with the mastery of a unique skill, could not even scratch the man?

Is this the power of a high-level Awakener?

How terrifying must Fusers who have merged several complete abilities be?!

In that moment, Fang Ze's heart was filled with an endless yearning for power!

Then, he also hardened his heart!

A single strike!

He only had one chance for a strike!

It seemed the price he had to pay was going to be more than he had anticipated!

With that thought, Fang Ze hesitated no longer and sharply whistled.

Suddenly, from the jungle, the two Shadow Warriors who had been repelled a moment ago charged once more.

They lifted their thick iron clubs, leapt high, and smashed them down towards the ranger!

Seeing the futile attack of the two Shadow Warriors, the ranger disdainfully said, "Useless! Their attacks are completely ineffective against me!"

But the moment the iron clubs were about to strike him, to his astonishment, they abruptly stopped short and then forcefully crossed over each other, pinning down his shoulders and locking him in place.

Immediately after, the two Shadow Warriors neatly pulled out two ropes from behind them.

One hand used the iron club to press down on him, the other hand tied his body and arms with ropes, leaving him strung up on the spot.

Caught off guard by this sudden turn of events, the ranger was momentarily dumbfounded, unsure of what they were doing.

He involuntarily turned his head to look towards Fang Ze.
