This is human nature.
"Damn it, you little bastard, I'm gonna kill you."
Ezekiel, who had been kicked, recovered and climbed up while clutching his abdomen, roaring angrily.
He really didn't expect this guy to fight back?
Not only fight back? But also call him trash?
This guy was asking for trouble.
But just as he was about to take out his weapon and kill Bruce Roberts, Jasper stopped him.
"James, stop it!"
"Jasper!"
Jasper made a gesture for Ezekiel to step back.
When Ezekiel stepped back behind him, Jasper stared at Bruce Roberts with cold eyes.
"Kid, you seem pretty badass, huh?"
"Alright!"
Jasper's eyes narrowed slightly, "Do you know who I am?"
"I don't give a damn who you are?"
"Alright, you've got guts!! Since you don't know any better, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Jasper grinned and flexed his arm!
"Wanna fight?"
Bruce Roberts's eyes turned cold as he effortlessly drew the long sword from his hand.
Although he knew that in the apocalypse, human vices would be greatly magnified.
But now, with the apocalypse barely an hour away, these scum dared to draw their swords against him in public?
It was like they were the villains, not him.
But Bruce Roberts didn't care, killing in the apocalypse was just a matter of time anyway.
He was prepared for it.
It would be good to use these scumbags to practice his skills.
But seeing Bruce Roberts unsheathe his long sword, Faith became excited.
"Jasper, Jasper, look at his sword..."
Jasper was also stunned, then couldn't help but admire, "Tsk tsk, what a good weapon, no wonder he could kill those two monsters, so that's how it is?""Kid, where did you get this sword from?"
"What's it to you?"
"Heh, it indeed has nothing to do with me, but I'm interested in it now. Name your price!"
As Jasper said this, everyone felt that this guy was somewhat shameless.
They knew better than anyone what the situation was outside.
At this time, having a powerful weapon was extremely important!
And this guy was proposing to buy someone else's weapon at this time?
"Name my price?" Bruce Roberts couldn't help but laugh. "Do you think I'm as stupid as the two idiots next to you?"
"Damn it..."
"You wanna curse again, try it?"
Hearing Bruce Roberts call them idiots, both Faith and the just risen Ezekiel instantly got furious.
Jasper stopped their futile roar and continued to Bruce Roberts, "Not asking for money? Alright, I see from your appearance that you're not too short of money. How about this, you give me the sword!"
"As long as you're willing to give me the sword, I won't pursue the matter of you hitting James, and I'll provide protection for you three. How about that?"
After saying this, Jasper still felt a bit uneasy and immediately added.
"You see, the three of us are adults, and our combat power is much stronger than you three students..."
Bruce Roberts's scabbard did not undergo any changes along with the Andúril sword itself.
So the scabbard was still heavily rusted.
When they saw Bruce Roberts just now, they only thought that the sword in his hand was a very ordinary one, and that killing those two lizard monsters was just luck.
But now!
The dark green sword flashed with dazzling cold light.
It was clearly a real sword, not like those props used for performances.
So Jasper was tempted!
With this sword, his strength could definitely increase exponentially.
When facing those monsters outside, he would definitely not be as embarrassed as before!
"What do you think?" Bruce Roberts looked at Jasper as if he was an idiot.
Where did this guy get the courage to say such things?
Did he really think of himself as an idiot?
Not to mention in the apocalypse!Even in peacetime, would you pin your hopes of survival on a stranger when facing danger?
And if this stranger happened to be a tattooed thug of all people?
Have some shame, will you?
"Kid, don't toast and not drink! You want trouble? You'll get it!!"
Seeing Bruce Roberts's mocking gaze, Jasper finally lost his patience.
"Just want the sword, huh? Fine..."
Bruce Roberts chuckled lightly, mocking directly, "If you have the guts, come and take it yourself?"
"Damn it, you asked for it!"
Jasper cursed angrily, a flash of killing intent in his eyes, while pulling out a folding knife from his body.
This style of folding knife wasn't very useful against the ferocious monsters outside!
But against unarmed humans like these, it was practically a deadly weapon.
"Today, I'll make it clear! Whether you give me that sword or not, I'm taking it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jasper bowed his body and charged straight at Bruce Roberts.
As the saying goes, a foot long and an inch strong.
Although Bruce Roberts's long sword was obviously more lethal than his dagger.
But Jasper had his trump card.
He had noticed that Bruce Roberts's T-shirt was already soaked with sweat.
Combined with his slightly panting appearance, it was clear that he was experiencing severe physical exertion.
With his own strength, dealing with an exhausted youngster shouldn't be difficult, right?
Then, with that divine weapon in hand, he wouldn't be chased by those monsters like a dog anymore.
So he went straight in.
Without much hesitation.
But he was wrong.
He was very wrong!
Bruce Roberts was indeed severely exhausted.
Even with a divine weapon like Andúril sword, he might not be stronger than Jasper at full strength in close combat.
But he wasn't a purebred warrior, did he need to fight in close combat with someone?
No, he didn't!
Seeing the opponent charging towards him, Bruce Roberts didn't hesitate. He swung the long sword in his hand without a second word! A transparent green blade shot out from the long sword like a sword qi.At the same time, a powerful gust of wind also flew out!
Swish!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the strong wind blew so fiercely that the people around couldn't open their eyes.
Some small ornaments were also blown askew by Bruce Roberts's sword.
Jasper didn't expect Bruce Roberts to have this move at all.
His face changed color, but he couldn't dodge in time!
Puff! Bang!
Jasper's figure staggered, instantly knocked flying by the strong wind, crashing into the wall behind him.
The folding knife in his hand fell to the side, and the black elastic vest he was wearing was cut open.
From his left ribs to his right shoulder.
Blood gushed from the wound, quickly staining his clothes red.
"Ah..." Jasper let out a scream like a slaughtered pig.
But Bruce Roberts kept staring at his left hand.
On his left arm, there was a layer of earth-yellow rock wrapped around it.
"So you've awakened earth elemental abilities? No wonder you're so confident..." After the cosmic storm, a small portion of humans became Awakeners.
Among the Awakeners, there was a small portion who awakened abilities.
In other words, abilities were extremely rare among Awakeners.
Let alone compared to ordinary humans.
After Jasper discovered he had awakened abilities, he felt he was different from others.
He never took Bruce Roberts seriously from beginning to end.
He thought he could rely on his petrified left arm to take Bruce Roberts's Andúril sword and catch him off guard.
But he never expected...
"You... you've also awakened abilities?" Jasper covered his chest, looking incredulous.
The onlookers around were also stunned.
Even Faith and Ezekiel had their jaws dropped in shock.
Abilities? What the hell??
Did both of them just use abilities??
"It's too late to know now!"
