Bai Ye looked at the opponent playfully and said, "Do you have any more weapons?"
The man glanced at Bai Ye, then at the hilt in his hand, gritted his teeth, threw the hilt away, and lunged at Bai Ye.
In terms of physique...
The man in front of Bai Ye was over two meters tall, while Bai Ye was more than half a head shorter. In terms of build, Bai Ye wasn't thin; he had muscles but wasn't bulky, belonging to the well-proportioned type. The opponent's muscles, however, bulged, especially his arms, which had distinct lines.
This contrast was probably why the man dared to go head-to-head, and then...
Bang!
The moment the opponent reached him, Bai Ye directly swept his leg, hitting the man's abdomen fiercely. The man's eyes widened instantly, and he knelt on the ground like a curled-up shrimp.
Bai Ye lifted his leg and stomped down towards the man's head, then...
Bang!
The man's head slammed into the ground, cracking a patch of it. Immediately, crimson blood flowed out.
In areas of technological civilization, the biggest flaw is often oneself.
In a way, it's quite similar to Beast Masters.
Beast Masters pour a lot of effort into their beasts, leaving themselves vulnerable.
People in areas of technological civilization rely mainly on terrifying technological weapons for their combat power, which also leaves them vulnerable.
However, this primarily applies to the combat power of natives.
The growth of Chosen Ones, while often leaning towards a specific area, is not that extreme.
Take Jin Sha for example. She was a Beast Master before coming to the World Battlefield, and she still focuses on beast taming after arriving.
This is because taming beasts is what Jin Sha knows best and her strength, so there's no reason to abandon what she's good at.
However, as time goes by, Jin Sha will undoubtedly do more than just tame beasts; her weakness will be compensated to some extent.
And then there's the Arms Queen Bai Lu. That woman who plays with guns, yes, she uses guns, but Bai Lu is actually quite skilled in magic. In fact, Bai Lu, as Bai Ye remembers, was also adept at gun-fu, capable of close-quarters combat.
But natives don't have this possibility; their weaknesses are obvious.
Of course, there are occasional exceptions. For instance, bio-tech civilization is also future technology, but they don't fall for Bai Ye's tricks. Moreover, some high-end technological civilizations might develop in dual or even multi-directional ways.
But it's clear that this city is not one of them. Once deprived of their technological weapons, they become defenseless.
This is good, at least for Bai Ye. Technological weapons? They are no match for Bai Ye!
Even a mecha, he'll dismantle it...
Alright, maybe Bai Ye can't dismantle it, at least not yet. After all, dismantling a mecha requires an enormous amount of mental energy. But he'll definitely be able to in the future.
In his previous life, Bai Ye could not only dismantle Gundams with his bare hands but also assemble them without looking at the instruction manual.
Bai Ye thought as he prepared to turn and leave, but at that moment, a "beep beep" sound made him pause.
Bai Ye looked at the corpse and then saw a small device dropped beside it.
The device was a badge about half the size of his palm, with a grip and a fan-shaped green display screen around the edge.
Bai Ye picked it up and immediately chuckled.
This was a Hunter's ID. Besides identification, it also allowed for information sharing. The "beep beep" sound just now was an information alert.
Most importantly, this information was a timely godsend for Bai Ye.
Currently, among the nine wanted criminals, including Bai Ye, four had their whereabouts exposed right after starting their wish missions.
They were the unlucky number one Li Jiayi, unlucky number two Bai Ye who was tricked by unlucky number one, unlucky number three Sanshang Zhi'er, and unlucky number four Garrison Dale.
Among them, Sanshang Zhi'er's number plate was seven, so the presumably well-off Sanshang Zhi'er was Bai Ye's first target, while Bai Ye's number plate was eight.
What else needs to be said? Let's go get him!
Bai Ye thought as he stripped the man's clothes, put them on himself, and left the alley.
"Falell Mall, where is it?"
Information is one thing, but without a map, Bai Ye was unfamiliar with this city...
However, can someone be unlucky all the time?
Bai Ye's luck was surprisingly good for once. After exiting the alley, Bai Ye planned to hijack a car, as cars had navigation and he could force the driver to take him to his destination.
But after walking only a hundred meters out of the alley, Bai Ye found a giant billboard in front of him. The advertisement was for Falell Mall's carnival sale, with discounts starting from 50% off. It also helpfully indicated the direction and distance.
Not far, about two kilometers.
Then there was no need to hijack a car. It was better to avoid unnecessary trouble and risk exposure.
...
At the same time...
Inside Falell Mall, a middle-aged man wearing traditional Japanese attire and carrying two swords at his waist was running rapidly.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way..."
Sanshang Zhi'er roared loudly. The crowd in front of him kept dodging to the sides, and for those who couldn't dodge in time...
"Isshun Giri!"
Sanshang Zhi'er suddenly roared, drawing his swords with a flash. A man and a woman in front of him were instantly cut in half, and a large amount of blood spilled out.
"Ah!"
Screams erupted from all around, and many people collapsed to the ground.
Sanshang Zhi'er, however, remained expressionless. He leaped over the corpses and continued to sprint forward.
But at this moment...
Two Hunters suddenly appeared and aimed their guns at Sanshang Zhi'er, but...
Sanshang Zhi'er was extremely cunning. He immediately ducked behind a pregnant woman and held his sword to her throat.
"No, don't kill me..."
The pregnant woman was greatly alarmed, her face filled with terror, her expression contorted, and sweat dripped down her face.
The two Hunters dared not act rashly.
Sanshang Zhi'er sneered, shoved the pregnant woman towards them, and continued to flee.
Sanshang Zhi'er dared not stop. There were two terrifying aspects to Hunters.
The first was technological weapons.
Technological weapons are quite formidable. They can empower individuals who are weak and lack combat ability with considerable fighting power.
Basic standard equipment like energy guns were one thing, but some Hunters wielded future technological weapons called "wind tunnel guns."
Sanshang Zhi'er considered those things quite monstrous, at least red-quality. Their function was to inflate the air pressure within the target's body upon impact, potentially causing them to explode.
At the very least, they could crush internal organs and cause significant damage, and they were almost impossible to defend against.
The second was the sheer number of Hunters. They were too numerous. If he stopped, he would be hounded endlessly.
Sanshang Zhi'er understood the principle of "many ants can crush an elephant."
Therefore, he could only run, keep running, and avoid stopping, trying to shake off the Hunters.
