1837 Rescue

“Hahaha! Young people are interesting! Helping these people who commit crimes will not end well. How about joining our military? I’ll vouch for you. Come back with me, and all your past mistakes will be written off.”

Rhett rarely had such a comfortable time.

Yet, his strength was still able to suppress the other party.

When he realized that this kid was like a cockroach that could not be killed, he immediately became even more interested.

Fang Heng was a little speechless. He thought to himself, “You can’t protect me from what I’ve done.”

He looked behind him and saw Aktu gesturing at him. Should he stall for more time?

Fang Heng looked at Rhett and smiled. He said, “Alright if you can defeat me, I’ll go back with you!”

“Hahaha! Good! Then I’m going to be serious!”

Rhett laughed. He felt that the young man in front of him seemed like him when he was young. He wanted to recruit him. His expression changed slightly and became serious.

“Whoosh!!”

Under the influence of the black fog, Rhett tapped the ground lightly and disappeared from Fang Heng’s sight in the blink of an eye.

His speed had increased again!

Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat.

Under the shroud of the black fog, it was impossible to tell the other party’s movements with just one’s eyes!

Perception!

Fang Heng immediately released his perception and roughly estimated Rhett’s movement trajectory through his blood perception.

Pre-judgment!

Bang!

He threw a punch forward!

Fang Heng felt his fist hit the other party, and then an even stronger strength surged over.

“Bang!”

Fang Heng was sent flying again!

“Good!”

Rhett praised Fang Heng again as he was impressed by him.

Fang Heng was blown away and knocked against the stone pillar rear him. His body was in pain as if it was falling apart.

He took a deep breath and forced himself to stand up again. He relied on the effect of the undying body to quickly recover from his external injuries.

Eh?

Suddenly, several game notifications flashed across his retina.

[Hint: The player has entered a special area. The player is affected by a special strength and has entered a state of stamina depletion. The player’s skill will undergo an additional authentication. If the authentication fails, the current skill will fail. The player’s attack will consume twice as much stamina.]

[Hint: In the special area, the player’s stamina will continue to decrease.]

Hint?

That’s right! It was the fog!

Fang Heng immediately realized that the fog that enveloped the interior had changed!

The black fog became more condensed than before.

Not only did it further affect perception, it could even affect his stamina!

“Take this!”

Fang Heng suddenly heard Aktu’s shout from behind. He immediately turned around and grabbed a pill that Aktu had thrown at him.

Fang Heng glanced at the yellow pill in his hand and swallowed it.

[Hint: The player has used an unknown drug]

[Hint: The player has been weakened by the loss of stamina…]

The effect of stamina points loss was suppressed.

With Aktu’s pills, the effect of the stamina exhaustion was reduced by half.

The players from the Federation army who entered the cave did not have it easy.

They couldn’t further get the game notification.

Most people had yet to realize the change in the black fog.

“Again!”

Rhett was very strong in close combat, but his perception was much weaker. He didn’t receive any notifications from the game, so he didn’t notice the abnormality of the black fog around him.

“Whoosh!!”

Seeing Fang Heng get up again, Rhett accelerated his movements and attacked Fang Heng.

“Bang!!!”

He swung his fist forward and punched Fang Heng, who was in a defensive position, again! He slammed into the giant stone pillar behind him!

“Boom!!!”

Fang Heng stood up shakily once again. The injuries on his body healed rapidly.

Rhett looked at Fang Heng with admiration.

The more intense the battle, the more he felt that the young man in front of him was filled with tenacity. After being attacked with such brute force, he still didn’t fall.

He was a natural-born warrior!

However, he soon noticed something strange. He started to pant and felt a little tired.

This was very abnormal.

In the past, he would only feel tired after five minutes of continuous high-intensity battles.

What was going on today?

The battle had only been going on for less than three minutes. It was far from being a high-intensity battle. Why did he feel tired?

Was his combat strength starting to weaken?

Rhett’s perception was weak, but he was very sensitive to the changes in his body. He quickly retreated when he understood that something was wrong.

What was going on?

When he looked up again, he saw that Fang Heng did not continue to hold on after standing up from the ground. Instead, he ran away without looking back and fled into the dense black fog.

Rhett frowned, feeling further stranger.

A soldier walked over and asked, “Captain, are we still chasing?”

“Wait a moment.” Rhett signaled his men to calm down and gave the command, “This fog is strange. Let’s retreat first.”

In the maze encampment, the other small teams from the Federation who were trying to explore soon understood that something was wrong.

The players of the Mundt Gang had undergone special training. They did not linger in battle. Instead, they fought and ran, using harassment tactics to continuously consume the opponent’s stamina. They would wait until the federal team has used up more than half of their stamina points before confronting them!

There was a problem!

The black fog was abnormal!

Within the range of the black fog, the rate at which one’s stamina decreased was extraordinary!

They had thought that it was just a cave and that they would be able to defeat their opponents. They did not expect to encounter such an abnormal situation.

Soon, the small teams from the Federation branch began a large-scale retreat.



“Friend! Over here! Follow me!”

Aktu waved his hand at Fang Heng from behind, waiting for him to regroup before retreating quickly.

“Thank you for earlier. How should I address you?”

“You’re welcome, I am Fang Heng.”

“Brother Fang Heng, you’re still the best. The Federation’s armed forces is just like what the outside world says, difficult to deal with. I almost lost my life.”

Aktu sighed.

He originally thought that he could defeat a small team from the Federation with his full strength. He did not expect that he would fail to do and instead, he was seriously injured.

If not for Fang Heng’s help, he and the entire team might have been completely wiped out.

“Fortunately, Big Brother has made arrangements. The armed forces seems to have retreated. I’ll bring you back first.”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng followed Aktu back to the hall of the headquarters of the Mundt Gang.

The hall of the Mundt Gang was built in the depths of the black fog.

The situation was urgent, and the headquarters hall was temporarily used as a meeting hall for the players.

On the way back, Fang Heng and Aktu saw injured people being carried to the headquarters for treatment.

In the hall of the headquarters, many gang leaders from the City of Darkness had already rushed back in advance and were discussing something with Meng Ruhui.

Meng Ruhui saw Aktu returning with injuries. He hurried forward and asked with concern, “How are your injuries? Are they serious?”

Aktu looked guilty as he spoke, “I’m sorry, big brother. I’ve embarrassed our gang. I’m fine. I’ll be able to continue fighting after resting for a while.”

“Yes, don’t force yourself.”

Meng Ruhui patted Aktu’s shoulder with concern. Then, he looked at Fang Heng who was rear him, and asked, “Who is this?”
