113: The whole family should be together!

In the forest.

The burly man with a scarred face swung his battle-axe, striking at Wang Chen with a furious Aura.

Earlier, he had already noticed that the young man was only Rank 56.

Therefore, the burly man didn't use any skills for this attack.

After all, in his opinion, with his Rank 65 strength, it would be easy to crush a Rank 56 student.

If he used a skill and accidentally hit too hard, killing or crippling the student would cause a lot of trouble.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant, the battle-axe reached the young man's face.

Seeing the young man remain motionless, a hint of surprise flashed across the burly man's face.

Good heavens, was he already scared stiff?

The new students this year really lacked quality!

As he thought this, he began to anticipate what gains he would acquire from this encounter.

"Still got time to daydream during a fight?"

However, just then, a mocking voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

Whoosh!

The next second, the battle-axe in his hand struck nothing but air.

The young man who had been standing there slowly dissolved into fragments and vanished.

An afterimage?

Seeing this, the burly man's eyes couldn't help but show some shock.

Although his attack hadn't used a skill, his speed was still extremely fast.

For this student to be able to dodge, he must have used a movement-type skill just now.

"Kid, you dodged with a skill, what are you showing off for?"

Tossing his battle-axe, the burly man looked disdainfully at Wang Chen, who had appeared on his right.

"Skill?"

Hearing his words, Wang Chen couldn't help but chuckle slightly.

"I just took a step to the right!" he explained earnestly.

"Hmph!"

Upon hearing this, the burly man snorted, an expression on his face that said, 'You're fooling no one.'

Without using a skill, could a Rank 56 kid be faster than a Rank 65 Awakener?

"Let's go together! First, cripple this kid's mobility, don't let him escape the Secret Realm."

The burly man shouted, calling his two companions to surround Wang Chen.

Watching the three subtly form a pincer movement, a hint of interest appeared on Wang Chen's face.

He didn't move, intending to see what else they had to offer.

Just then.

The lanky man, who had circled behind Wang Chen, flipped his hand and pulled out a repeating crossbow, pulling the trigger without hesitation.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three crossbow bolts shot out, instantly reaching Wang Chen's back from the extremely close distance.

When the lanky man saw the young man in the center of the encirclement not even dodging the incoming crossbow bolts, a look of delight appeared on his face.

Although this repeating crossbow was only a Bronze-Rank piece of equipment, he had smeared potent poison on every single bolt.

As long as it pierced even a tiny bit of skin, the poison would instantly spread throughout the body, causing the poisoned person to fall into a slowed state.

The lanky man put down his repeating crossbow and said with a smile, "This is a sure thing. This kid is just too overconfident..."

Before he could finish, his voice suddenly stopped, and his triumphant expression froze on his face.

Bang!

Three crossbow bolts heavily struck Wang Chen's back; the force they carried not only failed to make his body sway in the slightest, but the three bolts themselves were bounced away.

"This..."

Seeing this, the expressions on the faces of the three robbers were somewhat astonished.

But the next second, greed appeared in all three of their eyes simultaneously.

Taking a direct hit from Bronze-Rank weapons and being completely unharmed?

How good was the equipment on this kid?

In an instant, their breathing quickened.

"Charge together!"

The burly man with the scarred face shouted, and his battle-axe heavily struck towards Wang Chen.

On the other side, the Assassin Awakener wielding a dagger stealthily activated "Shadow Step" and charged forward, his gleaming dagger thrusting out directly.

And from the rear, the lanky Awakener, seeing that his repeating crossbow was ineffective, pulled out a short magic staff and consecutively cast two debuff skills at Wang Chen.

Slow!

Weakness!

Two streaks of magical light enveloped him, and Wang Chen instantly felt the strength in his body wane by a few points.

His speed probably dropped by 20%, and his strength by about 10%.

"Their coordination is pretty good!"

Caught in a three-sided pincer in an instant, Wang Chen's face showed no fear at all; instead, he commented with an old-fashioned air.

It had to be said that while these ordinary Awakeners couldn't compare to college students in terms of resources and equipment, their combat experience was quite rich.

Other students who entered the Secret Realm, let alone Rank 56, even if they were Rank 60, would likely fall in such an encirclement.

But...

For Wang Chen, this was quite childish!

Even with two debuffs stacked on him, his four-dimensional attributes still crushed the three people around him.

Bang!

At this moment, Wang Chen, in the midst of the encirclement, didn't dodge or evade; he stomped his foot heavily on the ground and charged directly at the burly man on his left.

Before the opponent's battle-axe could fall, he was already in close quarters with the burly man.

Then.

He unleashed a punch.

Bang!

With the enhancement of his equipment, the strength carried in Wang Chen's punch exceeded 1,500 points.

Even without using a skill, upon being hit by this punch, the burly man with the scarred face felt as if he had been struck by a speeding car.

With the immense force released, his body immediately hunched into a shrimp, then he flew backward, breaking two large trees before coming to a stop.

Having done all that, Wang Chen didn't press his advantage; instead, he pushed off the ground, dodging the dagger aimed at his kidney by a hair's breadth, and made eye contact with the Assassin Awakener.

Slap!

Seeing the look of horror on the guy's face, Wang Chen didn't hesitate to give him a big slap!

It made him spin a few times on the spot, and for a moment, he saw stars and couldn't tell east from west.

This sneaky guy, of all the places to aim, he chose my kidney?

Slap!

Muttering to himself, Wang Chen gave another backhanded slap, directly knocking the Assassin Awakener to the ground.

In a total of five seconds, two of the three robbers were directly taken down.

Beside them, the lanky Mage, who was preparing a magic skill, widened his mouth in shock at this sight, and the skill he was about to cast was interrupted.

Too fierce!

Taking down two Rank 65 Awakeners in five seconds, was this supposed to be a lone fat sheep?

This was clearly a solitary fierce tiger!

At this moment, the Mage Awakener realized that the three of them had bitten off more than they could chew!

"I surrender!"

Glancing at his miserable companions, the Mage Awakener unceremoniously threw away his magic staff and raised his hands.

He was very cowardly.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, Wang Chen was a little surprised, not expecting this guy to be so sensible.

However...

He didn't stop, and with one slap, he also sent the Mage Awakener to the ground.

"I surrendered, so why are you still hitting me?"

His face made intimate contact with the ground, and the Mage Awakener was very aggrieved.

"Hehe, a family should be neat and tidy!"

Wang Chen rubbed his hands, looking at the red mark on only one side of the Mage Awakener's face, wondering if he should make it symmetrical.
