The Mysterious Man

Only the king of the demon wolves and a few other beasts were left. 

Xu Hang was prepared to sneak away.

Suddenly, the dead leaf messenger said loudly, "Since you're here, why don't you come and meet me?"

"What? He knew I was here?"

Xu Hang was flabbergasted.

The dead leaf messenger and leftover beasts were more than enough to kill him.

Xu Hang began to slowly raise his head.

"You found me. As expected of the system's messenger."

'It wasn't me?'

Xu Hang immediately hid again.

"Wang Jian, you came here by yourself?"

The dead leaf messenger laughed contemptuously.

"Didn't you guys want to punish me?"

A man jumped down from a big tree.

The man was extremely handsome!

He was wearing a long robe. When he jumped down, the sleeves of his robe fluttered. 

There was an aura of chivalry and gentleness around him.

His facial features were perfect. He had a head of thick black hair that was casually tied up. His nose was tall and his lips curved into a dazzling smile. Furthermore, there was a glint of confidence in his eyes.

Any woman would have easily fallen in love with him.

Even Xu Hang, a man, was attracted by his temperament.

'God is really unfair.'

Xu Hang was rather envious.

The man landed steadily on his feet. 

"I don't like waiting. That's why I came to look for you," said the man. 

He took out a metal wine flask from his pocket and drank two mouthfuls.

"First of all, I want to comfort the owner of this wine flask who is in heaven. Secondly, my people do not have enough food to get through the winter because of you."

Xu Hang felt that the man was extremely reckless to confront the messenger like this.

Moreover, it sounded like the dead leaf messenger had killed his friend.

'Metal wine flask?' 

Xu Hang could try to smelt metal, but he really did not know how to produce wine.

"Hmph, how arrogant. Everyone, since the prey has come to us, let's attack. This is a great opportunity for all of you," said the dead leaf messenger to the magical beasts.

However, the group of magical beasts looked afraid. They dared not go forward.

"Kill him and you'll instantly be rewarded with a spot in the new world!"

The magical beasts were in an uproar.

They whispered among themselves.

"I don't care about you guys. I'm going!"

A green crocodile rushed forward. 

It got close to the man and swung its tail at him!

The man did not dodge at all. He instantly drew his sword and slashed the crocodile. Then, he put the sword back into its sheath. This process did not even take a second.

Unfortunately for the crocodile, its tail was cut into more than ten pieces.

"Ahhhhh!"

The crocodile screamed in pain.

The dead leaf messenger kicked the bleeding crocodile to the side and just like that, the crocodile's eyes dimmed and its entire body became motionless.

"Aren't you doing the same thing that we did to your friend? You killed this crocodile. The hostility has already been established."

"Here's a toast to that!"

"All of you, attack! If you don't attack, I'll kill you by myself!"

The dead leaf messenger said hysterically.

Countless magical beasts rushed towards the man. 

The man did not show any fear. He pulled out his sword and jumped into the air, slashing several magical beasts. 

Then, he charged forward.

In a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the dead leaf messenger and thrust his sword at him!

However, the dead leaf messenger was not easy to deal with. He immediately turned his body sideways and dodged the attack.

Despite that, the man seemed to have predicted everything. He suddenly turned his wrist and thrust his sword at the dead leaf messenger again.

Clang! 

It was the sound of metal clashing. 

The dead leaf messenger had an armor on.

"Hehehe, I was expecting this."

All of a sudden, the dead leaf messenger's body was enveloped in electricity. Sparks were flying!

It was a trap!

The man realized it a little too late!

Fortunately, he still had a trick up his sleeves. His left hand immediately reached into his pocket and he took out a short blade. Their distance was just enough for him to slash through the dead leaf messenger.

The dead leaf messenger did not have time to react to such a close-range attack. 

He tried to move out of the way, but his arm still ended up being chopped off by the man! 

Without a second to lose, the dead leaf messenger fired a lightning bolt at the man, sending him flying backward. 

Then, he knelt on the ground and used his other hand to cover his wound. He was screaming in pain.

"You b*stard! I'm going to kill you! I'll cut you into a thousand pieces!"

Xu Hang saw everything from his hiding spot. 

It seemed like the dead leaf messenger had power over electricity. That would explain why he was using the electric fan and loudspeaker. He must have mastered circuit and battery technology.

The armor he was wearing could discharge electricity externally. That was how the dead leaf messenger could fire a lightning bolt.

It really caught the man by surprise.

After taking the hit, the man laid motionlessly on the ground.

"Useless beasts! Attack! Kill him! The reward is still up for grabs!"

The dead leaf messenger yelled angrily. His eyes were bloodshot.

'Oh no, the man is in danger!'
