Upon hearing Danny's words, a gleam of excitent flashed in the burly man's eyes. He turned towards David and sneered.
"Alexander, we have a deal. I'll kill him, and you'll help get the Heart of the Insect Race. But rember, you can't go back on your word!" The burly man spoke with disdain, his contemptuous expression becoming more pronounced. He clenched his fist, and the bones crackled with a series of sounds, radiating a sense of imnse power.
As the burly man suddenly appeared, David's expression remained calm and composed. During their conversation, he had attempted to sense the man's aura. However, he was puzzled by the fact that he couldn't accurately determine the man's level despite knowing that it wasn't high. This made him realize that the rules in this Wasteland World differed from those of the post-apocalyptic world.
Here, the ranking and strength of Espers seed to deviate from the norms of the apocalypse. Nevertheless, David wasn't worried because he was confident he could overpower this burly man. However, the ntion of the Heart of the Insect Race by both sides intrigued him. Before he could delve further into his thoughts, he heard a rushing sound in the air.
David focused and saw that the burly man had launched a fist towards him while he was contemplating. The punch was forceful, and the fist carried a sharp and icy wind—a sign of a formidable opponent.
With a slight downward movent, David evaded the punch, causing the burly man's attack to miss. Despite this, a faint smile remained on David's lips, laden with aning, as he observed the burly man's reaction.
"Kid, do you think it ends here?" The burly man chuckled lightly, his clenched fist suddenly opening wide.
A trendous explosion resounded near David's ears. In response, David's mind activated, and his Golden Defense Layer imdiately enveloped his ears. This allowed him to completely ignore the attack, while a towering tree nearby shattered into fragnts due to the shockwave.
Steadying himself, David looked at the burly man. Sparks shimred above the man's fist, and the previous explosion had been caused by the friction between the fist and the air.
This made David realize that the previous punch had been a feint, while the true purpose was to exploit the sonic explosion to inflict serious damage on him. Amused by the burly man's tactics, David couldn't help but chuckle. Using the friction between his fist and the air to execute his ability? It seed the burly man had t his match today.
It was worth noting that David not only mastered the Crushed Air Fist technique,but also possessed spatial abilities. The combination of the two was more than enough to overpower the burly man. Who would dare to play hand-to-hand combat gas with him?
David shook his head sympathetically, implying that the burly man's attempt had failed. The burly man, seeing that David had evaded his attack, was montarily surprised but quickly regained his composure.
In the Wasteland World, Espers of the sa level held slightly higher ranks than those in the post-apocalyptic world. Due to the distinct laws of the Wasteland World, Espers who had crossed over from the apocalypse couldn't imdiately perceive each other's levels. They needed to adapt to the local laws before fully grasping each other's strength.
In this realm, the governing principle was slaughter,a ceaseless, unending slaughter. the burly man, was an Esper who had been reborn through bloodshed in this world. His eighth-level ability made him an offensive Esper, a formidable level akin to a ninth-level offensive Esper in the post-apocalyptic world.
From David's recent arrival in the Wasteland World, he couldn't fully gauge the burly man's strength. However, the burly man saw David as nothing more than an ant, easily crushed. He couldn't comprehend why Alexander would fear this young man. Yet, at the thought of obtaining the Heart of the Insect Race, the burly man's excitent surged. This treasure was enough to make him the ruler of the wasteland.
"Kid, I advise you to kneel before obediently. Otherwise, when I get angry, you won't even leave behind a complete corpse," the burly man pulled a white cloth strip from his waist and wrapped it around his right fist.
"You talk too much." David was becoming impatient with his words.
Hearing David's response, the burly man paused for a mont before bursting into laughter. "Hahaha! I like your attitude! I didn't expect you to be soone who won't tolerate any nonsense! Since that's the case, I'll have to send you on your way."
Tying a knot in the cloth strip, the burly man glanced at David and then swiftly dashed towards him.
"Feel the force of my Shattering Mountain Fist!" With an angry shout, the burly man's fist surged like a teor, aiming for David's face.
Despite his speed, David found it painfully slow. He half-closed his eyes and raised his fist gently.
"This punch will teach you a lesson in humility!" The collision between David's Crushed Air Fist and the burly man's Shattering Mountain Fist was swift. The resulting shockwave from their clash made the surrounding air feel as if it had been seared by intense flas.
The white cloth strip on the burly man's fist disintegrated into fragnts in an instant, falling to the ground. The next mont, he raised his head, a look of horror in his eyes. As his fist made contact with David's, he felt an imnse force instantly surge through his arm. This power was scorching and overwhelmingly potent, as if it could tear the muscles in his arm apart. The intense pain was unbearable, and he attempted to retract his fist, but a crisp "crack" sounded in his ears.
Montarily stunned, the burly man looked at his arm and realized that the bones beneath the muscles had been shattered by David's punch. The broken bone shards pierced through his skin, blood spraying out like a fountain. He stared at David in alarm, as if he were gazing at a monster. He couldn't fathom how not only had his punch failed to harm David, but it had also resulted in his own bones being brutally broken by the trendous force.
"Playing fist gas in front of ? You're too inexperienced!" David raised his head and spoke in a deep voice, looking at the burly man's pained expression.
"Boom!" Another punch from David struck the burly man's forehead. Before he could react, his vision went dark. His head shattered like a smashed waterlon, completely obliterated by David's blow. The air was filled with the splatter of brain matter and blood. His lifeless body collapsed to the ground, and the fragnts of the white cloth strip that had fallen turned red from the dripping blood.
David retracted his fist and glanced at the burly man's corpse. It was clear that he never anticipated eting such a fate.
David then turned his gaze towards Danny by the grassy hut, his eyes filled with disdain.
"You pit this trash against as an opponent? You must think very little of ." David showed no restraint in displaying his contempt for Danny. As Danny observed the burly man being swiftly defeated by David's single strike, a sinister expression once again crossed his face.
