At this moment, Fang Li's attention was focused on only one thing.

That was the hearts, exposed to his Magic Eye, that were glowing.

No.

To be more precise, it should be the death lines, like cracks, on those glowing hearts.

Facing those death lines, the dagger in Fang Li's hand turned into a weapon of death.

"First one!"

The first Kabaneri didn't even have a chance to turn around as the dagger, turned into a cold light, easily cut through the death line on its heart.

"Second one!"

The second Kabaneri had already turned its head, but only to meet the dagger that pierced its heart.

"Third one!"

The third Kabaneri let out a roar and pounced at Fang Li, but with a side step, Fang Li exposed the vital point of its heart to the dagger, piercing it through as if it had crashed into it.

"Killed a Kabaneri, gained 100 exchange points."

"Killed a Kabaneri, gained 100 exchange points."

"Killed a Kabaneri, gained 100 exchange points."

The consecutive three system notifications not only announced Fang Li's victory but also pushed his exchange points to nearly 6000.

This number was almost twice the amount required for the main mission three.

Then, the three Kabaneri with pierced hearts fell one after another, losing their breath.

"Mission accomplished!"

After killing the three Kabaneri, Fang Li did not hesitate to dash down a side path, disappearing in an instant.

It was only then that the Kabaneri, who were feeding, noticed this scene, emitting furious roars, and with powerful strides, they rushed into the side path, chasing after Fang Li.

Not a single Kabaneri went to chase the ordinary people anymore.

Thus, Fang Li's plan was also accomplished.

However, the real test was yet to come.

Because this time, the Kabaneri attacking Fang Li were not just two or three, but more than ten.

That was a number that Fang Li could absolutely not win against in a direct confrontation.

Therefore, the real test was yet to come.

Fang Li was naturally aware of this.

Thus, he chose to flee without a direct confrontation.

In the narrow alley, the roars of the Kabaneri echoed continuously.

Fang Li, running in the alley, listened to the roars behind him, trying hard to adjust his breathing, tightly gripping the dagger in his hand, the ice-blue glow of the Dead Apostle's Eye becoming even more intense.

"So, what should I do next?"

While running and calmly thinking about this question, Fang Li did not notice.

On a house not far from the alley, a girl stood there, clearly seeing Fang Li being chased by a group of Kabaneri, her expression showing both surprise and curiosity.

Then, the girl leaped, her figure like a nimble cat, jumping onto another house, continuously leaping on the rooftops of buildings, chasing after Fang Li.

...

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAA—!"

The roars of the monsters continued.

Fang Li did not stop, always running, turning his head from time to time to look behind him.

The Kabaneri, with their fierce and terrifying appearances, chased without any pause, and the distance was getting closer and closer.

"Indeed, in terms of speed, the Kabaneri are also faster than me, right?"

Otherwise, they wouldn't be called monsters.

"Moreover, it's not just that they are fast; these guys don't even know fatigue, making them very difficult to deal with."

Continuous running had already made Fang Li's breathing slightly rapid.

However, the Kabaneri showed no signs of fatigue, chasing Fang Li with all their might, closing the distance.

Being faster than Fang Li and not tiring, the inevitable result was clear.

That was Fang Li being caught.

Fang Li did not feel anxious about this; instead, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

"Come on!"

"All of you, come on!"

"Let's see who eats whom first, or who kills whom first!"

Muttering to himself, Fang Li finally saw his destination.

A corner leading to a narrower alley.

"That's it!"

Fang Li's eyes lit up, he pushed off with his feet, turned, and entered the narrow alley.

Seeing this, the Kabaneri, with their fierce faces, chased without any hesitation.

However, with this chase, a problem finally emerged.

Because the alley was too narrow, the Kabaneri chasing in were directly jammed at the entrance.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAA—!"

The Kabaneri immediately let out roars, struggling to squeeze their bodies into the alley.

But even after squeezing in, the narrow alley could only allow one Kabaneri to pass through.

Thus, the Kabaneri were like a queue, rushing into the narrow alley one after another, heading forward.

"GA?!"

At this moment, the Kabaneri at the front let out a broken cry.

Because this Kabaneri saw.

Their target was no longer running; he was waiting at the front of the alley.

His face was filled with a joyful smile.

"Thank you for lining up to die!"

As he spoke, Fang Li suddenly rushed forward.

"PUHCHI—!"

It was a very clean sound of flesh being torn.

The sharp dagger, following the death lines visible to the Dead Apostle's Eye, once again pierced through the heart of the Kabaneri.

The Kabaneri let out a final scream of pain, and with the heart shattered, it slowly fell.

Fang Li, however, directly supported the dead Kabaneri's body, using it as a barrier to block the narrow alley that only allowed one person to pass through.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAA—!"

All the Kabaneri were immediately blocked behind, only able to reach out through the gaps towards Fang Li.

However, these Kabaneri did not know that exposing their arms so defenselessly to someone with the Dead Apostle's Eye was an incredibly foolish thing to do.

Thus, a cold light flashed.

"PUHCHI—PUHCHI—PUHCHI—PUHCHI—!"

The sound of flesh being torn rang out again.

Following the death lines, Fang Li, like cutting through fragile paper, effortlessly severed the pairs of arms reaching towards him.

Crimson blood continuously splattered.

The color gradually dyed Fang Li's body red.

However, that was also a symbol of honor.

Because it was not Fang Li's own blood, but the blood of the enemies.

Then, the monsters, having lost their arms, without any doubt, successively met the weapon that pierced their hearts.
