777米奇影

“We’re familiar with you, but you, alas, don’t know us,” said a middle-aged man in the group, addressing Luo Feng.

“Ah, have I somehow offended you?” Luo Feng responded.

“Not at all! ”

“Then what motivates your actions?”

“We chanced upon you and thought we’d chat. We’re regulars of your livestreams, quite the fans, you see.” Luo Feng was at a loss for words.

Such a poor excuse.

He thought, ‘Who are they trying to fool?’

Uncertain of their true intentions, Luo Feng chose not to indulge them with pointless banter.

Taking stock of his surroundings and the echoing footsteps, he warned, “Friends, I’m currently livestreaming. There are millions, tens of millions of eyes on us. Aren’t you apprehensive?”

“No concerns here. Our faces are hidden, we’ll remain anonymous!”

Their audacity left Luo Feng bemused.

Meanwhile, his viewers were growing concerned.

It seemed Luo Feng was in potential danger.

“Why are there people in such a remote forest?”

“Isn’t this a no man’s land? Where did they come from?”

“Isn’t the host just hiding? They’re fans, wanting to meet him, right?”

“These fans seem a bit extreme, bringing guns and ammunition?”

Luo Feng had already strategized his next steps. He identified four or five of them.

Armed.

Yet, they wielded Type 38 rifles, he noted.

Single-shot.

Old models, he concluded, with the rifling probably worn smooth.

“What’s the host’s plan? Is he confronting them?”

“I’ve reported to the police, host, no need to worry!”

“Seems like being a livestreamer nowadays requires packing heat!”

“But, what are these guys doing here?”

“Aren’t they here for a fan meet-up, like they said?”

Crouching, Luo Feng collected a few stones from the ground and pocketed them. He then offered, “Friends, if you withdraw now, I’ll disregard this incident. What do you say?

His words were met with laughter and derision.

They apparently dismissed him as nave.

“Laughing, are we?”

“I extended goodwill, and it’s been scorned!”

“So, no one leaves. You’ll stay put!”

Luo Feng focused on the surroundings.

He located the approximate positions of the five individuals.

It wasn’t that he was incapable of taking them on, he just didn’t wish to reveal his full capabilities.

To be clear.

He had no desire to resort to lethal force, even against these reckless individuals.

Peace promotes prosperity.

Violence should be the last resort, if possible.

Yet, they were provoking him.

Bloodshed seemed inevitable.

Then, Luo Feng sprang into action.

He spotted one of the men circling him.

A swift toss of his Jungle Blade.

A pained cry echoed.

The knife had found its mark in the man’s shoulder.

He crumpled to the ground.

Simultaneously, a gunshot rang out, and Luo Feng rolled for cover behind another tree.

“Third Brother, you okay?”

“Damn you, Luo Feng!”

The leader’s face twisted in fury at the sight of his fallen comrade.

His eyes bore into the tree shielding Luo Feng.

“One down, four to go!”

Quietly, Luo Feng recalibrated, refining his understanding of the remaining four’s locations.

Once again, he stepped forward.

He launched his Swallowtail Hoe.

A sickening thud followed.

The hoe collided with another man’s head.

He dropped!

“Damn, the host is formidable!”

“His accuracy is phenomenal, almost professional!”

“Two down already?”

“Does the host have more to throw?”

“Can he actually disarm those gunmen with just his hoe?”

Luo Feng’s prowess no longer surprised the viewers who had witnessed his exploits in the ancient tombs.

This was but a game to him.

Yet, for the uninitiated, this was as thrilling as a feature film.

“What else do you have up your sleeve?”

Another man had fallen, and the leader was becoming desperate.

Luo Feng was safe behind a tree.

Their bullets could not penetrate it.

More than that, their courage was faltering against this formidable opponent.

“Up the tree!”

Surveying the robust tree, Luo Feng decided to ascend.

Its size would provide sufficient cover, even at height.

They wouldn’t suspect a thing.

Reaching the top, Luo Feng surveyed the scene below.

The remaining three men were still fixated on the base of the tree.

Drawing another dagger, he let it fly.

A stifled cry.

Another one down.

“He’s on top of the tree!”

“When did he climb up?”

The leader hastily sought new cover.

The tables had turned.

They were hiding from the man they had encircled.

He was simply too formidable.

“Stop hiding, I’ve got you pinned!”

Swinging agilely from the treetops, Luo Feng announced his location.

They wouldn’t dare to retaliate, even now.

“There you are!”

Spotting the leader, Luo Feng launched himself from a branch towards him.

The man, frozen with fear, could not react.

He relocated.

Luo Feng reappeared in his field of vision.

Another thud.

A stone hit his hand, causing his gun to clatter to the ground. Immediately after, another stone found its mark on his forehead..
