Chu Han kicked at the ground and left an afterimage in his original position. Then he appeared ten meters away, just like a jaguar. At the same time, he lifted the Shura axe above his head and stared coldly at where he was standing earlier.
Huge cracks had formed on the wall, while opposite it, a pale middle-aged man was standing. He was the man they had met in the morning; the one Wangcai had called a geezer.
At that moment, he took out a machete with a fierce expression in his eyes.
At the same time, many people gathered outside the house and soon a commotion broke out. The crowd was not only consisted of ordinary survivors who had come to enjoy the show, but there were also evolutionaries amongst them, including Zhang Wenchang and Fu Jialiang.
When they all saw how Chu Han exceptionally avoided the attack, they felt surprised, especially those who had not met Chu Han. Their questions surged out like an overflowing river.
"Who is this?'
"I don't know. He is a newcomer."
"He must be an evolutionary, but doesn't he know the rules?"
"I've heard that the evolutionaries who don't abide by the rules are imprisoned. It's so bad!"
"The leader is out these days, and an unknown evolutionary dared to act arrogantly?"
"Hum! Being an evolutionary means nothing here! The bad ones will just end up in prison and get tortured.
The bottom-feeders commented and mocked ceaselessly. All of them were commoners. They were unhappy when a new evolutionary popped out or improved. They cursed the fact that the evolutionaries had more energy, fresh food and owned a house where they could live all alone. In comparison, the commoners had to work hard all day long and starve all the time. They were humble, and they needed to flatter and kneel before any evolutionary as they were worried about offending and making them angry. The latest punishment was taking a beating, while death was considered a casual occasion.
After suppressing their feeling for so long, the commoners' hatred toward the evolutionaries had skyrocketed, and as a result, their sanity turned to twisted logic. When they saw an evolutionary, Chu Han, acting in such an arrogant manner, they became excited, and they wished for nothing more than seeing Chu Han in a miserable condition before severing his limbs!
Not only the commoners, even the evolutionaries felt surprised. They could have never expected that a newcomer would be so brash. Did he have a death wish?
Zhang Wenchang and Fu Jialiang exchanged glances, and they noticed the mockery mixed with surprise in each other's eyes.
"That guy is Chu Han!" Fu Jialiang sneered.
Zhang Wenchang grinned gloomily, "He is bold! How did he get out of the house?"
"Only phase-1 evolutionaries cab be restrained, so Chu Han must be a phase-2 evolutionary, like me." Fu Jialiang gritted his teeth. "So you were a phase-2 evolutionary, you concealed well!"
"I planned to imprison him for one day to let him know the power of the base and show him how severe the rules are. Unfortunately, we misjudged him. We should ask him what his rank is." Zhang Wenchang shook his head in regret.
"I think it's better if he dies." Fu Jialiang was obviously disappointed with Chu Han.
He was unhappy when thinking about Chu Han's soundless footstep and how he kept up with him. He had never expected that Chu Han could escape from that room. He also did not believe that the man in front of him was the top ranker, as he had never seen Chu Han and how he fought. The military had tried their best to rope in the top ten rankers in every list, so it seemed impossible for the number one to be in such a remote village.
Fu Jialiang was exhilarated with Chu Han's brash acts; it was as if he was ventilating his anger. The more havoc Chu Han wrecked, the heavier the punishment later. The most lenient sentence was to chop off one of his limbs, and the heaviest was to hang his mutilated body on the gate for all to see.
The shocked Zhou Zhu could not understand why Chu Han's head was still on his shoulders. Not only that, but he was no longer standing in front of the door!? Only the pale middle-aged man with the machete was before the door.
Had Chu Han's body hit the wall as he couldn't withstand the attack's force? Zhou Zhu unreasonable thinking process lifted his spirits, but then his eyes opened wide with shock.
The pale middle-aged man moved his foot and then he looked to the left. He said suddenly, "You are Chu Han?"
Zhou Zhu was astounded. Was Chu Han still alive?
'Bang! Bang! Bang!'
Zhou Zhu crawled hurriedly toward the door, and then he stretched his head to take a look. Shock took over his heart once more. He looked at the pale-faced man, and his body trembled in fear.
Chu Han, holding the huge axe, was standing leisurely. Not only was he not injured, his body even emitted his bloodthirst from every pore.
He looked like a wolf!
The pale middle-aged man looked at Chu Han with a serious expression on his face. He clenched the machete's handle tightly, and then he said in a respectful tone, "I respect strong people. You are the second person who has escaped from my attack."
Everyone was shocked, including the evolutionaries and the group of commoners that mocked him earlier. Besides the base's leader, only that young man, Chu Han, had earned the middle-aged man's respect.
Chu Han shook his head, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"Will we fight or not?"
Everyone was amazed. The young man did not know his limits! How could he say something like that to the second stronger in the base!?
He sounded arrogant!
Fu Jialiang was infuriated! He wanted to tear Chu Han's mouth. What's more, he wanted to torture him if he didn't die today!
"Before we fight, I have something to tell you," the pale middle-aged man said slowly with killing intent in his tone. "You will die soon, so you should know the name of your murderer-"
"Stop talking," Chu Han interrupted him. "I don't need to know the loser's name!"
