The bandit leader kept attacking with his Esper ability. The dim surroundings were illuminated by the flames, causing the silent forest to stand out.

On the other hand, Ye Tianyu relied on his speed to constantly dodge and counterattack from time to time.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Scorching flames scattered in all directions, igniting the nearby trees. There was a fierce exchange of attacks.

However, no matter how he activated his Esper abilities, he was always knocked back by Ye Tianyu’s fists.

His every punch landed on flesh, causing the bandit leader to retreat.

“Gasp! Ye Tianyu’s close combat ability is too terrifying!”

Li Qingqing watched from afar, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment.

She had witnessed Ye Tianyu’s fighting style in the group mission last time. Although he would attack demonic creatures from time to time, his main damage was dealt by his summoning soldiers.

If she hadn’t see it with her own eyes, it was hard to imagine that Ye Tianyu himself had the ability to fight on par with close combat mutants.

Even though she saw it with her own eyes, Li Qingqing still found it hard to believe.

While Li Qingqing was still deep in thoughts, the bandit leader cried out in pain and was beaten to the ground by Ye Tianyu.

Ye Tianyu’s cold voice rang out again as he stared at the figure who was screaming in pain on the ground.

“Where did you hide all the cars nearby?”

“Haha, that’s right. We hid those vehicles, but don’t even think about finding out anything from me. I don’t know where you came from, but some big shot has set his eyes on this place. If you kill me, you won’t be able to leave this forest…”

As the bandit leader spoke, he lifted his mask and revealed the face of a middle-aged man.

“It’s you?”

Ye Tianyu was no stranger to this plump middle-aged man.

He was the wicked merchant from the Treasure Pavilion, Zhou Daren.

At this moment, Zhou Daren looked extremely regretful!

After losing the updates about Ye Tianyu, he led his men to ambush in the forest outside the black market, hoping to kill a few weak mutants to make up for their losses.

However, he never expected to encounter such a powerful mutant.

“Damn it, I’m so unlucky!”

Not only did he not gain anything, he also lost more than 20 of his subordinates and was also injured by the other party.

However, even if he were to die, he had to understand what was going on!

Zhou Daren’s face was in a pathetic mess as he asked in a near roar.

“Who are you? What grade are you at?”

Ye Tianyu wiped the dust off his hands and took out the Elven Dominator’s sword. He dragged it on the ground and slowly walked towards Zhou Daren.

“Ye Tianyu, a Grade E Summoner…”

Zhou Daren suddenly froze in place, muttering to himself.

“A Grade E Summoner, Ye Tianyu?”

He was a Grade C fire-type mutant, but Ye Tianyu could easily defeat him without using his Esper ability.

With such capability, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a Grade B close combat mutant.

However, Ye Tianyu actually claimed that he was a Grade E and a summoner that was the weakest class in close combat.

How was this possible?

Wait a minute!

That high-level demonic creature previously must have been a summoning soldiers, which meant that he was indeed a Summoner. But how could his terrifying close combat ability be explained?

Suddenly, a possibility appeared in Zhou Daren’s mind.

“The legendary dual-type mutant?”

It was said that some gifted mutants could have two different kinds of Esper abilities at the same time. These people were known as dual-type mutants.

He had once heard that there was a dual-type mutant near City H…

Was the man in front of him also a dual-type mutant?

The more Zhou Daren thought about it, the more shocked he became.

He had unknowingly offended a dual-type mutant… He was simply courting death.

However, Zhou Daren had no time to think.

Under his terrified gaze, Ye Tianyu slowly walked towards him. The sharp sword was already raised and aimed at his throat.

“Wait… I can bring you out of the forest!”

This sentence was practically shouted out loud by Zhou Daren.

Swish!

Ye Tianyu dropped his Elf Dominator sword, and the blade sank into the ground.

Blood dripped onto the ground.

“Stop playing dead. I won’t miss the next strike,” Ye Tianyu said coldly.

Ye Tianyu was not a soft-hearted person. He would never show mercy to those who schemed against him.

Because if there was once, there would be a second time. He did not want to leave behind any underlying threat for himself.

Zhou Daren should be glad that he still had value.

At the last moment, Ye Tianyu changed the trajectory of the sword, so the sword did not kill Zhou Daren. Instead, it only sliced across his cheek.

“Hahaha! I’m not dead?”

Zhou Daren opened his eyes, his eyes shining with joy.

To him, the injury on his face was nothing. Death was what terrified him the most.

As a businessman, he had a unique understanding of benefits.

It was precisely because of this that his final words saved him.

But at the same time, he also knew his current value.

After receiving Ye Tianyu’s instructions, he enthusiastically led them to a vehicle and reported the location of the mutants lying in ambush nearby.

Just like that, they drove out of the jungle.

Zhou Daren drove while a Grade B summoning soldier sat in the passenger seat.

This made him feel extremely terrified along the way.

Sitting in the back seat, Li Qingqing retracted her gaze from the window. Looking at the strange scene in the car, she couldn’t help but laugh.

“Ye Tianyu, you’re really a talent. You actually thought of such a good idea…”

Upon hearing her compliment, Ye Tianyu smiled and spread his hands open.

He didn’t believe in Zhou Daren’s character.

Therefore, before getting on the car, he gave an order to his summoning soldier.

As long as Zhou Daren showed any signs of abnormality, it would kill him to prevent him from plotting anything.

In reality, Zhou Daren was indeed up to no good. Originally, he had planned to drive the car to the ambush area of the other bandit groups and let the other bandits deal with Ye Tianyu so that he could escape Ye Tianyu’s control.

However, after hearing Ye Tianyu’s order to the summoning soldiers, Zhou Daren completely changed his mind.

Although he was a wicked merchant, he was not a fearless warrior.

Under the watch of the terrifying summoned soldiers, he did not dare to scheme anything. Along the way, he avoided the ambush of the other bandits and pretended to be showing his full effort.

‘They say snakes have their way and rats have their way.’

As the bandit leader, Zhou Daren was very familiar with the location of the other bandits. It was not difficult to avoid their ambush in advance.

Meanwhile, the other bandits who were lying in ambush did not know that the person they were looking for had already left the black market quietly.

In order to intercept from as many directions as possible, the area where the bandits were lying in ambush was very scattered.

However, it was precisely this arrangement that allowed Zhou Daren to successfully bypass the area where no one was lying in ambush.

Just like that, the car slowly drove out of the forest.

Two hours later, the sky gradually brightened.

In the suburbs not far from City H, a modified mountain car appeared in sight and slowly drove towards the entrance of City H.

The combination inside the mountain car was very strange. A pale-faced middle-aged man sat in the driver’s seat, and beside him was a skeleton soldier that was shrouded in black gas.

The scene was very strange!
