Chapter 50: The Blood-Dripping Flying Dagger

Originally believing they were facing certain death and planning to scatter for a slim chance of survival, Gaofeng, the Wei brothers, Chengu and others were completely stunned when they saw six flying daggers actually hovering around Luo Feng’s body. Chen Gu even blinked twice in disbelief. Indeed, they hadn’t misseen—the daggers were genuinely floating, with nothing supporting them!

“A mentalist!”

“Telekinetic control!”

“Is Luo Feng a mentalist?”

Instantly, thoughts surged through Gaofeng and the others’ minds. Each of them grew excited, their faces flushed with blood. Gaofeng even roared, “Follow Luo Feng! Go with him!”

“Boom! Boom!” The frenzied beast horde charged forward, cracking the dilapidated concrete ground and shaking nearby ruined buildings until dust rained from their walls. An old saying goes “ten thousand horses galloping,” but each of these beasts was ten or even a hundred times stronger than ancient warhorses. When over a thousand beasts galloped together, the scene was even more terrifying than ten thousand horses thundering past.

“Left!” Luo Feng roared.

Instantly, the rest of the Hammer Squad followed Luo Feng, sharply veering left. Wei Qing carried Zhang Ke, who had lost too much blood.

“Roar!” “Howl!”…

A foul stench of beasts spread through the air. By not fleeing but instead running left, Luo Feng’s group instantly collided with the pursuing beast horde. The stench of the beasts filled their nostrils. At that moment, Luo Feng clenched his teeth, his gaze icy. The six flying daggers hovering within a ten-meter radius around his body suddenly moved!

“Shshshsh!”

In an instant, the six daggers transformed into illusions. “Puchi!” One dagger pierced straight through the skull of a charging lion-hound beast, splattering brain matter everywhere. Controlled by mental force, the same dagger instantly continued at an astonishing speed, piercing through the skull of the next beast.

Six flying daggers! In the blink of an eye, over thirty beasts nearest Luo Feng’s group had their heads pierced through!

Blood and brains splattered everywhere.

“Roar!”

“Boom! Boom!” Amidst the piercing shrieks of the dying beasts, the thirty-some charging creatures collapsed with earth-shaking thuds. Their bodies, propelled by momentum, skidded another ten meters across the blood-soaked earth. Behind the fleeing Hammer Squad, the battlefield had transformed into a grotesque carpet of countless beastly corpses.

Gaofeng, Chengu, the Wei brothers, and the pale-faced Zhang Ke were all stunned.

They had always known mentalists were powerful, but… this was just too extreme!

“Buzzzzz!”

The six daggers became streams of light and illusions. Any beast within nearly twenty meters of Luo Feng was instantly pierced through the skull. This level of precise control was also extremely terrifying!

“This speed of consuming mental energy is too fast,” Luo Feng secretly marveled. Each time a dagger pierced a beast’s skull, it consumed significant energy. These beasts’ skulls were far harder than ordinary rocks. After killing just over fifty beasts in one breath, his mental energy had already been greatly depleted.

Chengu behind Luo Feng exclaimed in shock, “Damn, this mentalist is too extreme. Even a thousand beasts wouldn’t stand a chance against him!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. With such a huge commotion, the longer we stay here, the more beasts will be attracted. Now it’s a thousand beasts, soon it’ll be five thousand. If we wait even longer, maybe even ten thousand beasts will surround us, including many Lieutenant-level beasts. How can a mentalist kill those? Do you think mentalists don’t consume mental energy when killing beasts?” Gaofeng laughed and scolded.

Amidst the beast onslaught, the Hammer Squad actually had the leisure to chat.

It could be imagined… Gaofeng, Chengu, and the others now truly felt no pressure at all, as every beast was being killed by the flying daggers.

“Climb the wall,” Luo Feng commanded.

The Hammer Squad, already sprinting, reached a wall ahead. One after another, they leapt over. Behind them, although many beasts had died, the remaining beasts were still bloodthirsty and fearless. They continued charging forward with roars. Any that approached Luo Feng’s dagger zone were pierced through the skull!

It should be known—

Currently, Luo Feng’s physical strength barely reached the “Advanced Warrior-level” threshold. Mental energy usually was two tiers stronger than physical strength. Therefore, his mental energy was at the “Mid-Lieutenant-level” baseline. Mentalists were the most terrifying beings among warriors, capable of easily wiping out opponents of the same level!

With telekinetic control, Luo Feng could keep a safe distance and literally pierce beasts to death with daggers!

However, currently, to maintain maximum dagger power, Luo Feng could only control two daggers simultaneously! The more daggers he used, the weaker each one’s power became. Indeed, Luo Feng could control over a hundred daggers at once, but their power would be greatly reduced, and even precision couldn’t be guaranteed.

With six daggers, Luo Feng could ensure each could handle “Low-Lieutenant-level” beasts, with precision still maintained.

With just two daggers, Luo Feng could maximize power, enough to handle “Mid-Lieutenant-level” beasts.

“Boom! Boom!” Fearless beasts smashed through the wall.

“Puchi! Puchi!”

As soon as they approached the fleeing Hammer Squad, the beasts were instantly slaughtered. Blood and brains scattered. The collapsing beast corpses caused chaos in the rear ranks. As the Hammer Squad turned a corner onto a distant street, they immediately left many beasts behind.

At this time, the Tiger Fang Squad had already run far away. The Hammer Squad had attracted a large number of beasts, reducing the density in surrounding areas. Thus, the Tiger Fang Squad advanced quickly for a while. When they reached a new area densely packed with beasts, their progress slowed again, and they advanced cautiously.

“What happened just now? Not a single kill?” The Tiger Fang leader frowned.

“Captain, I shot at Gaofeng, the leader of the Hammer Squad, but he was just dissecting a beast corpse at that moment. He happened to twist his body while using his dagger, letting the armor-piercing bullet pass by his head. It seriously injured another member of the Hammer Squad, blowing his arm off. Whether he’s alive or dead is uncertain,” the thin A Xiao replied.

“That Gaofeng was just lucky.”

Zhang Zehu frowned at another person, “Dongzi, I ordered you to kill Luo Feng. Why is he still alive?”

The distance was far, and bullets traveled fast. Only the two snipers using optical sights through their rifles could clearly see the instantaneous situation.

“That Luo Feng…” the shooter called “Dongzi” hesitated before replying, “He was also very lucky. When I fired, he was just cutting beast fur. He happened to swing his knife along with the motion, deflecting my armor-piercing bullet.” Dongzi could only explain it this way. He didn’t believe Luo Feng’s reflexes could actually intercept a bullet.

So it could only be luck!

After all, intercepting an armor-piercing bullet required extremely exaggerated eyesight and blade precision.

“Damn, that Luo Feng really has dog-shit luck,” Zhang Zehu couldn’t help but curse.

“But don’t worry,” the sniper “Dongzi” smiled, “Earlier, our four shots attacking the beast horde already caused them to surround and kill the only humans they could detect—Hammer Squad. Over a thousand beasts. Even if the Hammer Squad is strong, they’re definitely finished!”

“No!”

The Tiger Fang leader shook his head, “Not necessarily. If the Hammer Squad scatters and flees, maybe one or two might survive!” As he spoke, the leader revealed a slight smile, “Of course, even if one or two survive, it poses no threat to our Tiger Fang Squad.”

“Captain, maybe they just happened to meet a War God-level existence who could save them,” a one-eyed middle-aged man chuckled.

“In a small county town, and in such a short time, encountering a War God… and having that War God-level expert willing to help. That’s rarer than winning the lottery,” the Tiger Fang leader grinned, “Alright, let’s move out. That old thing is still active. We need to catch up with it as soon as possible.”

“Understood.”

The Tiger Fang Squad immediately advanced.

On the rooftop of a common six-story residential building, Luo Feng’s group quickly rushed to the top.

“Click!” The stairway door leading to the rooftop was immediately locked shut.

“Hurry, lay Old Zhang down,” Chen Gu urged.

“Get medicine,” Gaofeng also anxiously said.

With injuries like Zhang Ke’s, he could bleed to death even from blood loss alone. Fortunately, the bleeding had already been stopped. However, such severe injuries required immediate basic treatment… After all, it would take a full three days on foot to reach the military supply base from this 0201 County Town.

In Zhang Ke’s current condition, traveling for three days? Absolutely impossible.

“Old Zhang, put this in your mouth to replenish energy,” Chen Gu took a pill and placed it in Zhang Ke’s mouth.

“Weitie, properly treat Zhang Ke’s wounds,” Gaofeng immediately ordered.

The Hammer Squad members busied themselves caring for Zhang Ke. Zhang Ke, whose face was pale, received timely energy replenishment, his furrowed brows relaxing. As the treatment and nursing continued, the Hammer Squad members gradually relaxed.

“Thank goodness,” Luo Feng secretly sighed in relief, watching Zhang Ke’s pale face, especially the right arm that had been blown off along with half his shoulder. A wave of guilt surged in his heart, “Zhang Ke won’t be able to use his long spear anymore. His career as a warrior is over!” Luo Feng believed the Tiger Fang Squad’s attack was most likely due to him.

Facing Zhang Ke, Luo Feng felt deep guilt.

“Tiger Fang Squad! Zhang Zehu!” Rage burned in Luo Feng’s heart, “I, Luo Feng, swear that I will make you pay blood for blood, and let you taste the flavor of annihilation!!!”

“Tiger Fang Squad, those bastards, trying to wipe out our entire Hammer Squad,” Chen Gu couldn’t help but curse.

“Damn Tiger Fang Squad, this grudge must be avenged!” Weitie also growled lowly.

“These bastards, Gaofeng will make them regret this,” Gaofeng clenched his fists tightly, then looked at Luo Feng, “Thankfully, we had Luo Feng this time… By the way, Luo Feng, how can you control objects from a distance?”

Instantly, the entire Hammer Squad, including the severely injured Zhang Ke lying on the ground, turned their gazes toward Luo Feng.
