Is that something to be done alone… The hunter captain was a little doubtful, but he still nodded.

“I’ll go with you. It’s fine as long as there’s a captain here. I can take care of your back,” Cole suggested.

“Then follow me.” Zhou Jing thought for a moment and did not refuse.

If someone was able to hold off Dorton, his efficiency in killing the enemy would soar, and he would be able to crush all of them in a few moves.

Although Cole was only at the second enhancement, as an elite, he could barely hold on for a while. After all, Dorton was only at the average level of someone who had undergone their third enhancement and was nowhere as strong as Zhou Jing.

The best candidate to go with him was actually the team leader, but it was also very important to stay here to prevent any accidents. He was afraid that he would miss Dorton and the others. If the enemy headed straight here, at least the team leader could deal with them for a while. On his side, he did not need too much help.

…

Under Dorton’s lead, more than 20 bandits searched the next street. They did not even dare to make too much noise, afraid that they would be detected from afar and cause their captives to go into hiding.

However, after searching many streets in futility, they realized that those captives were not hiding nearby at all. They had no idea where the captives would have gone.

“If not for that person holding them back, how could these captives have run so far!”

Dorton’s face darkened.

A fierce man suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Not only did he kill a few brothers, but he also caused his golden goose to fly away. Dorton’s current mood was akin to being constipated.

“Boss, we can’t find anyone. Why don’t we snatch something and retreat!”

“That’s right. That person was too powerful just now. If he attacks again, we’ll die!”

“Let’s stop here, Boss!”

Unlike Dorton, the other accomplices had already started to retreat. They didn’t want to continue looking for people and wanted to escape with the things they had snatched.

This was especially true for the bandits who had only been enhanced once. They had just witnessed Zhou Jing’s insane combat strength, and their hearts were filled with fear… Even Dorton could not stop this guy, so if they fought again… They would suffer heavy casualties.

Dorton’s expression was uncertain. He could not ignore the opinions of his companions as well. His anger slowly subsided, and his rationality slowly occupied the high ground again.

After thinking for more than ten seconds, Dorton gritted his teeth.

“When the news of Deep Rock City spreads, the other towns will definitely tighten their control over the hunters. It will be very difficult for us to break through a fortress city from the inside like we did today… But there’s still a long way to go. There will always be a chance. At most, we’ll change our method and attack a small town. Let’s retreat.”

Hearing this, many bandits were overjoyed. They were glad that their boss did not wish to fight to the death.

Dorton suppressed his frustration and could only bring the bandits back to their temporary bunker in a hurry. He planned to let everyone recover their remaining spoils of war and leave the town.

However, just as he arrived at the bunker with his men, he found Zhou Jing standing at the other end of the street, looking at him from afar.

“It’s this guy again!”

Dorton’s anger surged. He drew his scimitar and took the lead, not daring to let his subordinates go first. He wanted to hold Zhou Jing back and not give him a chance to deal with the others.

Zhou Jing was fearless. With two blades in hand, he faced the attack head-on.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Their weapons clashed several times in the blink of an eye, and sparks flew.

Because Dorton had charged forward too fast, he was separated from his group of bandits.

Boom!!!

At this moment, the brick wall of a nearby house exploded outwards.

Cole, who was lying in ambush, charged out and slashed down.

Dorton was horrified. His instincts let him hurriedly roll to dodge, causing Cole’s saber to miss. The wind pressure from the slash brought about an arc of dust.

As soon as he stood up, he turned around, immediately prepared to block Zhou Jing’s pursuit. However, he realized that Zhou Jing had passed him. The latter pounced towards the bandits behind him like a tiger entering a herd of sheep, while Cole, who had charged out from the side, took over from Zhou Jing to fight.

“Oh no!” Dorton knew that something was amiss at this point. He wanted to quickly force Cole back, turn around, and stop Zhou Jing. He would switch opponents and let his companions deal with this sudden enemy.

As a result, he tried his best to press forward a few times. Although Cole had a hard time blocking him, he managed to slow the other party down like sticky candy, displaying his exquisite blade techniques and tenacity.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhou Jing held his breath and released the bioelectricity stored in his body. At the same time, he entered the [Thunder Strike] and [Internal Electricity Discharge] states. He was as fast as lightning as he rushed into the crowd and started killing.

The two sabers left snow-white tracks as they phased through the crowd.

Wherever it passed, blood bloomed.

Plonk plonk!

The bandits who had only been enhanced once easily fell one after another. They did not even stand a chance against Zhou Jing’s two sabers.

Without Dorton holding him back, Zhou Jing cut through the crowd like cutting through vegetables.

The high-speed blade promised extreme weight and violence. Even if someone blocked the blade, they would be sent flying by the heavy force and knock over their companions.

Even if the enemy panicked and wanted to attack to stop Zhou Jing from swinging his saber, the latter easily blocked the weapons from all directions. Just his powerful body alone could break the bones and tendons of the enemy who had only enhanced once. Those who were unlucky would be directly killed by him just by his body ramming into them.

In just a few rounds, seven to eight corpses lay on the ground. Many bandits were terrified by the massacre.

“Run!”

The remaining villains finally panicked. Without caring about anything else, they abandoned their companions and dispersed.

The second enhancement bandits still had the will to fight, but when they saw this scene, they knew that there was nothing they could do. Thus, they could only escape helplessly as well.

If this group of bandits gathered together, Zhou Jing would have to expend some effort. However, if the enemy scattered, they would have no strength to resist at all. He moved at high speed and directly chased after the escaping bandits.

The blade flashed, and another six or seven people fell in a pool of blood.
