The system had this ability? Why didn’t I ever know about it?

But this was no time to think about such things.

Tang Yu opened up the system menu, and as expected, he found a more detailed record in the log.

He saw the names of the two survivors in danger, and after some thought, he realized that it was the two survivors he had sent to the eastern part of the vacation villa to search for resources.

But they were now in danger?

The system did not give a more detailed explanation.

Tang Yu tried to ask the system, but all he got in reply was the same repeated phrases.

He speculated that this definitely wasn’t some sort of demonized beast. Putting aside the fact that all the demonized beasts in the vacation villa had been wiped out, if the two of them had run into demonized beasts, they would have been dead already, not in some endangered state. Either these two were injured or they were being threatened.

Tang Yu hurriedly used the power of the contract to send a message to Yilian and Roger, and then he called over Number Two and immediately set out.

…

Han Jing led a team into the vacation villa. As they advanced, they truly could see many signs of human activity.

He did not entirely believe Wang Zhou’s words… The boss hadn’t sent him on this mission because he was the strongest, but because he had worked for the boss for many years and was deeply trusted. For this reason, Han Jing was very cautious. He wanted to eliminate all factors that could possibly disrupt his mission.

His observations made Han Jing mentally sneer.

There were many demonized beast corpses in the vacation villa. Many of them had been left behind from when the humans had attempted to defend the shelter from the demon flood. However, Han Jing’s sharp eyes allowed him to see that some of the demonized beasts had only been killed recently, not on the day of the demon flood.

This meant that the survivors of the demon flood were not ordinary survivors as Wang Zhou had claimed. Perhaps these two were hoping that the Awakened in their group would save them?

Han Jing found this idea very interesting.

His group had two Tier 3 Awakened besides him, and five Tier 2 Awakened. Moreover, they had a variety of ammunition and even some heavy firepower. It would be no exaggeration to say they could even take on a small shelter.

This was the difference between a big power and a small power. Ordinary survivors, with their narrow vision of the world, had no means of understanding it.

But that was fine. If those people wished to deliver themselves to his doorstep, it would save him the effort. No mistakes could be permitted in this mission, and any person who could possibly leak information would meet only one end.

From the very beginning, Han Jing had passed the death penalty on these survivors. Even though they knew that these survivors actually had no relationship to the Origin Crystal vein, alas, they needed to keep this mission a secret. Considering that this Origin Crystal vein was too close to this place, in order to prevent the Origin Crystal vein from being discovered, Han Jing needed to put an end to all accidents. If they needed someone to blame, these survivors could only blame their bad luck, and this included…

He glanced furtively at Wang Tai, a cold glint in his eyes.

“Captain, ahead of us is the villa area, the center of the vacation villa. We haven’t encountered any other survivors on our way here, so the rest of them are probably over there.”

Wang Tai had no idea what Han Jing was thinking.

He was just thinking about how once he got his hands on some resources and had a connection to that big boss, he would be able to rise again in Lindong.

Han Jing lightly grunted, walked to the front of the group, and then suddenly sensed something and looked up.

Over there, two figures stood halfway up the mountain, the sun at their backs as they coldly observed them.

Han Jing laughed.

He had overestimated these survivors.

There was only one Awakened.

If those two could sense their energies, would they be scared out of their wits?

“Captain, look at what they’re wearing. They must think they’re something else.”

One of his team members chuckled and jeered.

Han Jing was also rather disdainful.

A man and a woman stood at the midway point of the mountain, one of them wearing a fighting suit and the other wearing a magic robe. But did they think that just putting on a Gold Cloth could make them Knights of the Zodiac?

Truly good equipment focused on practicality.

He wore a gray fighting suit, a combat vest, armguards, combat boots, a helmet, shoulder guards, and other equipment. Though they seemed unremarkable, they were the product of the Lindong Shelter’s technological research.

This was true life-saving equipment, and it wasn’t all about outward appearance!

Han Jing waved his hand. “Some of you, go up and capture those two.”

Several Awakened began to fly up the steps.

This distance wasn’t very far for Awakened.

On the clearing at the middle of the mountain, Tang Yu shook his head, indicating that Yilian shouldn’t strike just yet.

The Awakened got closer and closer.

In their eyes, he could see that these men thought that they were already fish on the chopping board.

Really?

Tang Yu laughed.

He could naturally tell that these people weren’t to be lightly provoked.

Whether it was in terms of energy or number, they were particularly powerful. This was the most powerful Awakened team he had seen in the apocalypse.

This group probably had some unusual background.

Perhaps they had some objective that they couldn’t divulge.

But none of this was important. What was important was that he had spotted his two ‘domain inhabitants’ that were in danger.

Han Jing looked at Tang Yu and his companion, watching for their reaction.

His team members had already covered two thirds of the distance, and those two were still standing there, neither attacking nor running…

Had they been scared silly?

Or were they in despair?

Boom!

A building to the right suddenly exploded, sending debris everywhere. A human figure charged out like a cannonball!

This human silhouette moved with incredible speed. The team member closest to it had his attention focused entirely on the pair midway up the mountain. Before he had any chance to react, he flew out like he had been struck by a truck, blood flowing from his shattered chest.

Han Jing was flabbergasted.

He was the strongest of his team, but even so, his reaction was too slow!

The human silhouette had been so fast that all he could see was that it wore blue and white armor.

Armor?

Han Jing wondered if he was seeing things!

The human silhouette collided with two other members before reaching the two tied-up survivors.

He could see clearly now that this was a man in blue and white armor. He had a long spear in hand, and with a swoosh, he cut apart the ropes binding the survivors while leaving them entirely unscathed.

Han Jing instantly concluded that this was an expert.

It was no wonder those survivors were so confident. He had no intention of going forward to exchange blows with this man. Humans, no matter how strong they were, were not immune to the threat of hot weapons. Experts might be able to dodge a few bullets, but once the bullets became a barrage, the threat level soared. And this wasn’t even considering the two ordinary survivors.

He loved seeing this sort of thing, when someone who had gone through great efforts was about to succeed and was then pushed into the abyss.

“Fire!”
