Li Xiuming is a Level 2 agile mutant.

In gunfights, he doesn't have much of an advantage, but in close combat, he's formidable.

Before the apocalypse, he was a martial arts athlete, specializing in cold weapon combat.

However, actual combat experience in cold weapon fighting is hard to come by, always dismissed as flashy and superficial, mere routines and showmanship.

But after the apocalypse, he finally had a chance to shine, especially after becoming a mutant, his physical abilities improved comprehensively. The moves he could only dream of while watching Qin Han martial arts films can now all be performed. Now, if he shot a martial arts film, he wouldn't need any wires.

He is a rooftop-leaping, cold-blooded killer, and today he has another chance to prove himself.

His mission is to infiltrate the villa, defeat Tanya, and take her away.

Though Tanya is also a Level 2 mutant, Li Xiuming is confident that once he gets close, no Level 2 mutant is his match.

He, along with five teammates, took a speedboat along the riverfront heading north towards Wanguo Island.

The river was muddy, and large fish occasionally swam behind the speedboat.

Fortunately, the fish in the river weren't as large as those in the sea, and the speedboat was fast, so ordinary fish couldn't catch up with them.

"Captain Li, we're about five hundred meters away from Ye Fan's villa."

"Okay, head over and see if those construction workers have left?"

The speedboat went directly to the palm grove next to the villa.

"The workers have left."

"Turn off the engine and quietly dock by the palm trees."

The speedboat turned off the engine and docked by the shore, using the shadow of the trees to quietly observe the villa.

It was now past eight in the evening; the workers left at eight. They had timed it precisely, not wanting any unexpected complications because the developers of this villa community weren't ordinary people.

Li Xiuming looked at the 10-meter-high Wall and couldn't help but mock, "What is Chen Bufan trying to do? Is he planning to build a prison and lock himself inside?"

"But in my opinion, this isn't a prison; it's a tomb. Tomorrow, this place will be a ruin for people to visit."

"It's about time; get ready to move out."

Li Xiuming locked onto the room where Tanya was located.

It was on the third floor of the villa, and he couldn't go up directly from the rear beach because the villa had surveillance cameras, making it easy to be discovered.

Others might choose to destroy the cameras or cut off the villa's power, but he didn't need to.

He looked up at the 10-meter-high Wall and sneered.

"You guys wait here and keep the speedboat ready. If I come out alone with Tanya, leave immediately by boat."

"If someone is chasing me from behind, open fire to cover me."

"As soon as you see me come out, fire a flare to signal the front team to take action."

The team members all nodded, and then Li Xiuming disembarked.

He quickly climbed a palm tree, leapt from the top of the tree directly onto the high wall.

Three or four meters was an effortless jump for him.

From this angle, he could no longer see the speedboat.

He took out his weapon, a heavy sword from Qin Han.

This was a sword without a blade, weighing fifty kilograms, unusable by ordinary people, only by mutants.

The mission today required capturing Tanya alive, and with this weapon, he could easily knock her out.

Carrying the hundred-pound heavy sword, he ran along the wall toward Tanya's room on the third floor.

Before he could take a few steps, a foul wind suddenly attacked from behind!

"Courting death!"

Li Xiuming was shocked; he leapt forward, spun in mid-air, ready to swing the heavy sword down.

But in the next second, his eyes nearly popped out.

An enormous, several-meters-thick creature resembling a gigantic python lunged at him from below.

The giant python hadn't even reached him, and the stench was already overpowering, mixed with a deep-sea scent.

"Not good! It's a Sea Monster!"

In a hair's breadth, Li Xiuming unleashed his peak Level 2 Mutant abilities.

In mid-air, using all his strength, he struck downward with the heavy sword.

Bang!

With full force, the massive python shuddered slightly, its attack speed somewhat slowed.

It's this moment of hesitation that Li Xiuming needed; the counterforce lifted him over four meters high, dodging the fatal blow!

But before he could land, a second giant python emerged, sweeping up from below.

Li Xiuming had no time to think; his only option was to swing the heavy sword down again!

Bang~~~~!

The powerful recoil numbed his arms, and he was catapulted over four meters high again. Now his entire body was nearly twenty meters in the air, with the attacking villa beneath him.

Whoosh~~~!

A third giant python surged up, and Li Xiuming's heart nearly leapt out; ignoring his sore arms, he swung the sword once more.

Elevated further, he was now almost twenty-five meters high.

This height was extraordinarily dangerous; even for a Level 2 Mutant, falling from twenty-five meters could be perilous.

But it wasn't over; a fourth python rose.

Exerting all his strength again, Li Xiuming braced for impact!

This was his final burst, his hand could no longer hold the heavy sword, and the heavy sword was shaken and flew out while he continued to rise.

Thirty meters now!

At this height, he could almost see the distant lights.

"Crap! If I fall now, I fear that I might get seriously injured."

Li Xiuming tried his best to tense his body, waiting for the moment of descent.

But it wasn't over yet.

The fifth giant python emerged from the ground again, as if something had driven it up, and struck Li Xiuming, who was thirty meters high.

It came up from below as if a racket had hit a ball.

The thing that hit him seemed to be the python's tail, delivering a real punch, and Li Xiuming, unable to dodge in mid-air and without any weapon for self-defense, was struck fiercely!

Bam~~~!

Whoosh~~~~!

The previous four times combined did not send him flying as high as this time, Li Xiuming let out a wretched scream, feeling like he was hit by a tens-of-thousands-ton-truck, and immediately passed out.

Before losing consciousness, he felt himself getting farther away from the ground.

.....

Ye Fan emerged from the villa and headed to the water's edge.

Near the water was a destroyed speedboat, courtesy of Xiaoba.

The people inside the speedboat had been turned into snacks by Xiaoba, so Ye Fan searched the boat and took out something resembling a fireworks cylinder.

Aiming it at the sky, Ye Fan fired it directly.

A stream of light soared into the sky, exploding magnificently at seventy or eighty meters.

A white tiger head appeared in the sky, and the level of detail was quite impressive.

After the fireworks exploded, a commotion outside the villa area ensued, and Ye Fan could even hear many people exclaiming.

Ye Fan knew that the people from Tai Chi Tiger outside were about to start their assault.

He discarded the fireworks cylinder, turned back toward the villa, as the show was about to begin.

As he reentered inside, a loud splash sounded from the beach behind him.

The Level 2 Mutant had fallen from the sky.

"Great skill, but unfortunately, in the wrong place, against the wrong opponent."

Ye Fan could only offer this evaluation, as not everyone's talents were brought into play either before the apocalypse or after.

.....

The white tiger-headed pattern in the sky caught the attention of many.

This was a special feature of Wanguo Island; with too many factions present, every group would deploy these signals to demonstrate their activity, warning others to steer clear.

Similarly, it's also a display of muscle, akin to "sending a cloud-piercing arrow to rally a thousand troops."

With the time being just past eight in the evening, many people outside the villa community paused to watch the fireworks ascend.

Even across the street, people from Curry Country opened their windows to observe the spectacle from above.

"Look, Shanshen Country is making a move!"

"I wonder who's gotten on Tai Chi Tiger's bad side; this is going to be big trouble."

"I know, it's the Qin Han People who moved into that villa area, workers were there today. It's them who offended the Tai Chi Tiger."

"What's wrong with our Qin Han People? Why are we constantly bullied by these foreigners? Won't Boss Cao take action?"

"The mouse brandishes a gun but is only big in his hole, Boss Cao doesn't have the ability."

"With elections coming, if he doesn't put on a show, isn't he worried he won't be elected?"

"Then tell me, besides Cao Zhenxu, who else among the Qin Han People on this island is qualified?"

On the Shanshen Country side, the Level 2 Mutant leading the squad was Cui Haomin.

Seeing the fireworks rise at the rear, Cui Haomin erupted in laughter.

Their visit today was meant to create a major stir; targeting Ye Fan was a goal, but not the final purpose, which was to further expand Shanshen Country's influence.

Noticing people even rushing into the villa area to watch the show, Cui Haomin grew even more excited.

"Brothers, turn the headlights on! Let's give them a light show first!"

The ten off-road vehicles that had come over were now directly opposite the villa, and at that moment, all headlights were turned on.

Vehicles in the post-apocalyptic world had undergone modifications, and the xenon lights could adjust angles to illuminate across distances.

With all ten vehicle lights turned on, Ye Fan's villa was instantly illuminated as bright as day.

This was also a way to announce to the world that the people inside this villa were their targets.

As countless eyes focused on the villa, Cui Haomin began firing.

"Brothers! Let these Qin Han People feel the passion from our Shanshen Country! Open fire!"

With that, he lifted the heavy machine gun in his hand and started madly sweeping the villa back and forth!

Clank-clank-clank-clank~~~~!

Metal shells kept falling outwards, seeing the boss take action, everyone else followed in firing.

Countless bullets rained down on the villa's outer walls like raindrops, instantly shattering glass, sparks flying, smoke rising, and the walls densely covered with bullet holes.

The intense gunfire immediately drew more attention.

On the street, many people ran towards the scene, eager to see what was really happening.
