Chapter 68

"What?"

Hearing Bu Fan's words, the two Shield Defenders exchanged an incredulous glance, their eyes flashing with great hope.

"These two women are our talismans for survival!" The two exchanged a glance, instantly understanding the meaning in each other's eyes.

"Don't come any closer! We'll take these two women with us. Once we reach the parking lot at the foot of the mountain, we'll release them. Otherwise, we'll all die together!" The other Shield Defender seemed to have found a weakness in Bu Fan and shouted loudly.

"Ha ha!"

A cold smile appeared on Bu Fan's face as he stared intently at the two, making them feel inexplicably terrified.

"Do you really think these two women will be a threat to me? They are just task partners I met by chance. Saving them is a favor, not saving them is my duty. Now, I'll give you one chance! Release them, and I'll let you go. If you don't, all four of you will die together. Remember, you only have one chance!"

Bu Fan said coldly, then raised his Storm Sniper Rifle, aiming it at them.

Clearly, if they refused, Bu Fan would attack without hesitation.

The two Shield Defenders were now breaking out in cold sweat, their hands holding knives trembling slightly as they looked at Bu Fan in fear.

They didn't know whether to trust this young man who seemed to be smiling but was actually like a demon.

"Go!"

At this moment, the two acted in rare unison, pushing the women towards Bu Fan and then turning to flee quickly in the other direction.

Their jungle motorcycles were not far away. As long as they reached the motorcycles, they could quickly escape from this demon's range.

Now, they only hoped that this demon would truly keep his promise and let them go because of the two women.

However, they didn't see that the moment they pushed Feng Yuan and Zhang Ke away and turned to run, Bu Fan immediately leaped high, jumping over the two and aiming his Storm Sniper Rifle at one of them.

A blue electromagnetic dart instantly flew out, knocking one of the Shield Defenders to the ground.

The other Shield Defender, however, paid no attention to his injured companion, fleeing for his life. As he ran, he began to consciously adjust his body to dodge Bu Fan's sniper shots.

However, Bu Fan didn't use the sniper rifle again but chased after the fleeing man directly.

As their name suggests, Shield Defenders are people known for their strength. In the team, they often control very powerful shields to face off against zombies and mutated beasts, blocking their attacks to create opportunities for their teammates to attack.

However, these people, who are strength-oriented, do not have a significant advantage in speed.

Moreover, these two Shield Defenders were only Fourth-Rank Warriors. If they faced ordinary warriors, they might have a chance to fight.

But against a killing machine like Bu Fan, these two Shield Defenders had no courage to fight. After all, their teammates, who were at least Third-Rank Warriors and mostly Fourth-Rank Warriors, were cut down by Bu Fan like vegetables.

"You're running so slow!" Bu Fan lightly leaped, flipping over the Shield Defender and blocking his path, saying with a cold smile.

"You... you said you'd let us go!" The Shield Defender trembled, shouting in fear.

"Idiot, it was obvious that I was lying! We are enemies, how could I let you go! War is a matter of deception! Have you heard that before?" Bu Fan looked at the Shield Defender coldly, saying indifferently.

From the beginning, he never intended to let these people go. Unlike the survivors of the Falcon Team, who didn't know Bu Fan's identity or his actions, leaving them alive was no big deal.

But these people were different. Zhang Ke had already revealed his name. If he let these people go, the people behind the scenes would soon know his identity, causing a lot of trouble.

"Forget it, I knew you were uneducated. Talking to you is a waste of time!" Bu Fan looked at the Shield Defender's bewildered face, lightly shaking his head. Then, in a flash, he appeared in front of him, stabbing a short knife into his neck.

Then, Bu Fan suddenly took out a palm-sized green bottle.

He gently opened the bottle and sprinkled some white powder on the body.

"Sizzle!"

Bubbles suddenly appeared on the Shield Defender's body, and the entire corpse quickly melted, emitting a foul odor, eventually turning into a pool of pus and blood.

Corpse Dissolving Powder!

This was something from martial arts novels, but the SkyNet Mall in this world also sold such items. The bottle in Bu Fan's hand wasn't bought but was a gift from Xue Meier.

As Xue Meier put it, in the wild, "Killing and arson, a golden belt," but after killing, one must of course destroy the evidence. Corpse Dissolving Powder is the best tool for that.

After disposing of the other bodies in the same manner, Bu Fan came to Xiu Ge's body and looked at his battle armor.

It wasn't that he coveted the battle armor on Xiu Ge's body. After all, if it could end up in Xiu Ge's hands, it must not be of high quality. However, if he took it back and sold it on the black market, he could make a good profit.

For such a scarce life-saving resource, there were always people willing to pay a high price to save their lives.

Battle armor was limited, and the materials used to make it were often the same. Most of these materials were used to make high-grade battle armor, with few used for low-grade armor.

However, Bu Fan was puzzled about how to remove the battle armor. Clearly, he didn't know how to strip it off.

"I'll help you!" At this moment, a pair of delicate hands reached over Bu Fan's and then delved into Xiu Ge's body. With a light sound, the battle armor that was originally attached to Xiu Ge's body fell off.

"Battle armor isn't just the outer protective shell; it also includes the inner adsorption layer. The inner layer has magnetic mechanisms that attach the outer shell to the body. Once the magnetic mechanism of the inner layer is turned off, the outer shell will fall off. But if you want to get the battle armor intact, you also need to strip the inner layer from his body!"

Feng Yuan squatted down, familiarly stripping the inner layer from Xiu Ge's body while speaking softly.

Bu Fan looked at her in surprise, finding it hard to imagine that this was a woman who had just been raped.

"Are you okay?" Bu Fan asked in a low voice.

"Ha ha, you mean just now? What could happen? It's like being bitten by a stray dog! I was mentally prepared when I came out! Do you want me to be like her?" Feng Yuan said lightly, then glanced at Zhang Ke, who was crying under a tree.
