Chapter 562, Are You Seeking Death?

Translator: Silavin

 

This person was undoubtedly in cahoots with Hirata Jimei, and his strength was no less than Hirata Jimei’s either.

 

In an instant, the situation here changed from 3V1 for the tall man to a 2V2, with no numerical advantage whatsoever.

 

Hirata Jimei wore a calm expression on his face, smiling as he said, “Hehe, these young ones are quite interesting, you know? We also haven’t had any business for several days now. It’s rare to finally have such a wonderful group. I don’t want to kill them off so quickly. Wouldn’t it be better to play around a little?”

 

“Well, you’re right about that!” The barbarian-like man licked his lips, looked at the short-haired woman, his eyes gleaming brightly. “While you can still drive around in the city, I can only wait here till you bring people over. Life has indeed been rather boring. It’s rare to have people deliver themselves to our doorstep. It would be quite a pity to immediately kill them. Among these young ones, there’s actually a good looking woman. What an unexpected delight.”

 

“In a moment, use your Skills to Crowd Control her. I want to have a good time with her. I’ll have her keep me company, through these difficult lonely times.” As he spoke, he unconsciously made slurping sounds.

 

This person was covered in filth from head to toe, clearly having stayed in the Wilderness for who knows how long, looking no different from a beast.

 

Knowing the meaning behind their words, the short-haired woman was so frightened that her face turned pale. If she were truly trapped here, it would be better for her to die than to ‘help’ such a person with his loneliness.

 

Originally, she and the tall man thought they could fight back, since it was a 3V1. Even if they could not kill the opponent, they could at least escape. But now, the appearance of the second Player Hunter had left them both in utter despair.

 

They did not even hope to join forces with Lu Fan, because even if Lu Fan were willing to help them, the three of them probably would not be a match for those two.

 

This time, it was truly a fatal situation…

 

As the two despaired, the barbarian-like man could no longer contain himself. He wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and said, “Alright, let’s stop talking rubbish. We might as well get on with it. Kill those who should be killed, and tie up those who should be tied up. I’m going to get a taste first; you best not fight me over it!”

 

As he spoke, he drew a short axe hanging from his waist, looking like he was about to make his move.

 

Lu Fan watched both sides, already feeling rather bored by this point. To be honest, between these two groups of people, it was not worth his attention.

 

Player Hunters indeed deserved to be cut into a thousand pieces, but this was Cherry Blossom Country. Leaving two scourges for Cherry Blossom Country to deal with would be helpful to him since he saw this country in general as an enemy.

 

As for these two from Kyoto University, who were being targeted, they had no connection to Lu Fan. Indeed, if they had been nicer to him, he might have lent a helping hand. However, these two had belittled him earlier. The fact that he did not directly take action to teach them a lesson was already him showing his patience.

 

Therefore, for Lu Fan, these two groups fighting was like dogs biting dogs. Even if they fought each other to death, it had nothing to do with him.

 

So, Lu Fan chose to directly ignore these two groups, opened his Map to check. He found the Map Coordinates the Devouring Dragon King had given him, and walked towards that direction, completely treating those four as air.

 

Lu Fan’s blatant attempt to leave attracted the attention of Hirata Jimei and the barbarian-like Player.

 

Both of them were stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting that Lu Fan would swagger away from them so openly.

 

Does he think they were blind?

 

“You brat, although you’re not with them, do you think you can just leave this place, right under our noses!?” Hirata Jimei coldly said.

 

“Obediently kneel on the ground and wait for us to finish off these two. You’ll be next.”

 

“Hey, I’m talking to you. Did you not hear me!?”

 

Lu Fan acted as if he had not heard anything, which made the latter somewhat embarrassed and angry.

 

The barbarian-like Player sneered and said. “Looks like he is too scared for words. No matter, I’ll just kill him with one axe throw.”

 

Having said that, he weighed the short axe in his hand and suddenly stepped forward to throw it.

 

Immediately, the short axe spun as it flew out, making a *whooshing* sound as it cut through the air. From its momentum, one could tell that even a Third Profession Knight would need to use their Skill to block this axe. Otherwise, this axe would likely pierce right through their armour and severely wound them!

 

This very axe had directly killed one of the tall man’s companions earlier. And now, no one would think that Lu Fan, a young man barely twenty years old, could survive this axe.

 

The short axe was as swift as lightning, chopping towards the back of Lu Fan’s head. The barbarian-like Player was already prepared to see Lu Fan’s head split open.

 

However, the next second, what happened before his eyes shocked everyone present!

 

Lu Fan did not even turn his head back. With a casual grab, he easily caught the short axe that was so fast it barely left an afterimage.

 

“Huh!? What!?” The barbarian-like Player’s jaw nearly dropped as he watched this scene, his face full of disbelief.

 

Not only him, but everyone else was the same.

 

It seemed as if Lu Fan catching this axe was as simple as casually catching a strand of hair.

 

For Lu Fan, an attack of this level naturally posed no threat whatsoever.

 

Black Dragon Perception allowed him to sense the short axe’s position and trajectory without needing him to turn his head. His massive Strength Attribute made him feel that this short axe was soft and powerless when it reached his hand.

 

Even though this short axe was forged entirely from a type of refined iron, making it far heavier and more solid than ordinary short axe weapons, it felt weightless to Lu Fan.

 

After catching the short axe, Lu Fan turned around under everyone’s astonished gazes, looked at the short axe in his hand, and showed a trace of impatience on his face.

 

As soon as this expression appeared, the barbarian-like Player didn’t know what was wrong with him, but he suddenly felt a chill in his heart and sensed the threat of death.

 

“Are you seeking death?” Lu Fan asked lightly, then applied slight pressure with his hand.

 

*Creak—* A sound came from his hand as the short axe was directly bent!

 

The barbarian-like Player understood better than anyone that without at least ten thousand in Strength Attribute, such a feat would have been impossible!

 

[His Strength Attribute is at least over 10K!? This can’t be!! Even Fourth Profession Players might not necessarily have 10K in their Strength Attribute!]

 

“This… this…” He trembled all over, completely unable to control his body, and fell to his knees with a *thud*.

 

He now knew that he had provoked someone extraordinary…
