First Battle, Two Against One!

He had deliberately followed them here. It turned out that it was just a magic treasure that had broken through to the second stage.

Although Yu Guang had never seen what this world's magic treasure looked like, he had long broken through to the second stage. This magic treasure was of no use to him.

"I'll just go back." Yu Guang muttered. 

He first gently tested the ground to avoid the cliché of stepping on a tree branch before leaving. Then, he tightened his grip on the phone in his pocket to prevent it from falling out when he left.

Suddenly, just as Yu Guang's hand touched his pocket, the numbing hand vibrated. The phone lit up, and then an untimely ringtone rang!

"Ding Ding Ding! Ding Ding Ding Ding!"

The ear-piercing ringtone was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the hearts of the two excavators.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" The tall and thin man immediately turned the shovel around and pointed it at the place where Yu Guang was hiding.

"Damn it!" Yu Guang cursed under his breath. He patted the disappointing phone through the cloth, not intending to listen to the other party's intention to reveal himself.

A breeze blew through the forest, and the grass that was as high as his legs rustled. The tense atmosphere seemed to have spread to the insects and birds, and the forest was deathly silent.

In the pitch-black night, the other party did not dare to rashly come over. Yu Guang felt lucky.

Because he had followed behind them without being discovered, their strength was surely below his. However, Yu Guang's current combat experience was insufficient, and those two people were clearly more like rats that traveled at night. Having this time advantage, it was definitely not a wise choice to clash head-on.

So, among the 36 strategies, leaving was the best strategy!

"Hurry and come out! Don't wait for me to kill my way over!" the short and strong man threatened.

Yu Guang hid behind a tree and remained still. He smiled lightly and said, "You guys play by yourselves. I'm leaving."

He rushed out at his fastest speed, and the two people on the other side were shocked at the same time, subconsciously taking a step back.

Yu Guang seized the opportunity and immediately sprinted in the opposite direction. With the cover of the night, as long as he ran fast enough, they would not be able to catch up!

"Stop!"

"Which direction did he run to?"

The two of them panicked for a moment. The quiet forest seemed to be filled with the sound of running.

"Ding Ding Ding! Ding Ding Ding Ding!"

At this moment, Yu Guang's phone rang again. The sound of running was no different from turning on the GPS!

The tall and skinny man immediately aimed in Yu Guang's direction. A cruel smile appeared on his lips. The veins on his arms bulged as he threw the shovel in his hand straight into Yu Guang's back!

Clang --

A piece of solid ice rose up from the ground, freezing the incoming shovel.

Yu Guang turned around and nimbly jumped to the side. He looked in the direction of the two men with a fierce look in his eyes.

If he had not dodged in time, he would have been pierced through by this force!

"Old Fan, can you do it? You missed!" the rough voice complained as the short and strong man walked over.

"Will you die if you don't say a few words in front of a great enemy? Hurry up and arrest him!" The thin and tall man staggered a few steps. The two approached Yu Guang from the left and the right.

"What do you want?" Yu Guang asked coldly.

The tall and thin man called Old Fan smiled sinisterly. "What do we want? What do you want? Did you follow us all the way here to see the stars?"

When Yu Guang heard this, he seemed to have misunderstood something. "I've been in the mountains for the whole day. It's you two who followed me."

"Hehehe, from the sound of it, you're still a young boy. You don't even know how to lie," the short and strong man mocked. "Don't talk nonsense with me. Aren't you night watchmen the best at catching people in the dark? Put on your best act for me!"

"I think you're mistaken. I'm not a night watchman." Yu Guang stood where he was and immediately became confident.

Unfortunately, his honesty did not earn the other party's trust. The short and strong man suppressed his voice and laughed, "Hahaha, Old Fan, did you hear that? This kid admitted his weakness and even refused to be called a night watchman!"

"Hmph! He dares to follow me. You have to be more careful in your next life!" Old Fan said fiercely.

The two of them accelerated at the same time and charged toward Yu Guang with sharp killing intent.

Yu Guang retreated and leaned against the big tree. "Hey! Listen to what the man is saying!"

However, the two of them did not listen at all. The short and strong man swung his fist and attacked Yu Guang. The latter raised his hand to block, but the other party's strength was as strong as an ox. It shook his arm until it went numb. Then, he heard the leaves on his head fall down.

Yu Guang secretly cursed and raised his foot to kick the short and strong man in the stomach.

"Wah! Wah!" The man held his stomach and took two steps back. He only felt that his stomach was abnormally cold, as if his internal organs were frozen.

Yu Guang loosened his hand. Before he could breathe, he saw a cold light from the corner of his eye. He aimed at the other man's heart. His body instinctively fell to the side and rolled around on the ground to avoid the sneak attack from above.

"Huff Huff Huff! Old Fan, be careful! This kid is using ice! I'm freezing to death!" The man patted his stomach. The thin pieces of ice reflected the moonlight, like a few stars that had fallen into the grass.

"Fatty Qiu, you're too useless. How can you be injured like this?" Old Fan mocked.

"It's just a tickle!" Fatty Qiu sneered, revealing his ghastly white teeth.

Yu Guang touched his left cheek. His fingers were stained with a sticky and slippery liquid. Under the moonlight, there was a reddish-black color.

Even though he had dodged the attack just now, he had only managed to scrape a line of blood on his face. He had not injured any important parts of his body. The two people in front of him had cooperated well. One was attacking from the front while the other was launching a sneak attack from the side. If he had not reacted quickly, he might have really died here.

However, the two attacks just now had allowed Yu Guang to test out the strength of the other party. Both of them were C rank, and they had used their rich combat experience to scrape themselves.

Yu Guang wiped the blood on his fingertip on his clothes and said to the two of them, "Although it's inevitable for us to fight to the death, I still have to clarify that I am not a night watchman."

When he was free, he had read reports about the night watchmen. He also knew that the nature of the night watchmen's work was very decent. However, it was still necessary to let the two people opposite him know the truth. 

"Cut the crap! When I pin you down on the ground, you can slowly explain yourself!"

Then, Fatty Qiu shouted angrily. His thick and fat fingers grabbed the air and grabbed a metal handle. Then, his hand slowly pulled out an oval shield out of thin air.

On the shield was carved a fierce beast with a mouth full of fangs, which looked like a tiger but not a tiger. The moonlight shone on the edge of the shield, which was as thick as a brick. It was at least a hundred kilograms, yet Fatty Qiu could hold it firmly with one hand.

Yu Guang looked at his arm. The part where he had collided with Fatty Qiu earlier was now black and blue. Fortunately, Fatty Qiu did not use his full strength in the first exchange, or else his arm would be broken. Instead, he chose to let Old Fan attack him. 

Strength-type C rank and Agility-type C rank were indeed a good combination. Yu Guang felt that the two of them were very suitable for each other.

He raised his hand and gestured to Fatty Qiu, saying, "Come on, let's finish this quickly. The entrance guard will show up soon if you don't."
