Hearing the sound, Akari stiffly turned her head and saw a fierce-looking man.
“Who told you to take pictures!
Grab this woman for me!” Following his command, the few people carrying the storage boxes dropped them and turned to charge at Akari.
But Akari, whose physique had been enhanced, was not afraid at all and directly swept one of them down with a heavy whip kick.
Although the martial prowess given to her by the system had been retracted, those combat and fighting skills were still deeply imprinted in her mind.
Although they were not so proficient and slightly rusty to use, they were enough to deal with these third-rate thugs.
“Damn!
This woman can really fight!” One of the burly men roared and lunged fiercely toward Akari.
His goal was very clear: to pin Akari down directly and let his other accomplices control her.
Unfortunately, that burly man had excess strength but lacked agility; as soon as he lunged at Akari, she dodged him directly.
Are you kidding me?
With a burly man of this size, if he really pinned her down, wouldn’t she be pressed into a meat patty?
As for the other two, Akari first landed a heavy punch directly on one man’s chest.
That man took the punch, fell straight to the ground in pain, and couldn’t get up for a long time.
The other man roared, brandishing a gleaming switchblade in his hand, intending to stab Akari straight away.
Seeing that the opponent had a knife, Akari didn’t dare to linger in the fight at all and lunged straight toward the stairs.
Taking advantage of the gap before the opponent reacted, Akari quickly ran outside.
Although it was a bit pathetic, facing the opponent’s gleaming knife, running away directly was a good choice.
Anyway, the evidence in her hands was already obtained, and now she just needed to contact the Public Security Bureau.
But seeing the few people behind her in hot pursuit, especially the two who had taken a whip kick and a heavy punch, wielding sticks with an expression of not stopping until her legs were broken…
Seeing this scene, Akari could only continue running for her life.
“Jeez, if the time for retracting my strength had been a little later, I could have easily taken care of these guys…” As the saying goes, no matter how high your kung fu is, you’re still afraid of a kitchen knife.
She was not like before and lacked the combat power of an ace soldier; even if her physique exceeded that of an ordinary person by double, rushing straight up against an enemy with a knife was no different from courting death.
Therefore, Akari ran even faster.
Thanks to the bonus to her physique, Akari felt no fatigue at all; instead, her body felt a burst of excitement, making her run even faster.
The few people behind her were still cursing, maintaining the posture of not stopping until her legs were dismembered, but could only watch Akari run farther away.
Afterwards, she directly used her tablet to dial the police emergency number.
After communicating with the dispatcher, the dispatcher said that they would send someone over in ten minutes at most.
Within these ten minutes, Akari needed to protect her personal safety and not be found by that group of villains.
Hearing this, Akari didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Ten minutes wasn’t long either; it was just the matter of a single game.
But someone was chasing her from behind, and several people were fully armed; she was afraid it would be difficult to deal with them alone.
Moreover, this place seemed to belong to a remote alley of the Third Street, and if the Public Security Bureau were to send people here, it would probably take more than ten minutes.
The enemy was more familiar with the road than she was, and if she was caught, Akari’s legs would probably be goners.
If things went wrong, she would become a missing person in the city by tomorrow.
Therefore, she looked at XN with pleading eyes.
“XN, at a time like this, are there any special rewards or anything like that…” Akari didn’t doubt that if XN didn’t make a move at this time, she would probably be beaten into a foldable screen.
“Triple-folded, no matter how it’s folded, it’s got face.” “Ahem, this system cannot directly intervene in the host’s commission…” “In principle, this kind of behavior is not allowed.” XN shook its head with a serious expression; looking at this firm attitude, someone who didn’t know better would have thought this was an impartial judge.
“Then give me some props, temporary ones are fine too; at the very least, make sure my legs don’t get dismantled…” Hearing the gradually approaching footsteps, Akari’s face turned pale.
To be honest, as an ordinary young girl witnessing the scene of being hunted down, to say she wasn’t scared would be fake.
It was just that Akari’s psychological stress-resistance ability was alright and she hadn’t been scared witless, otherwise she would probably have bolted straight away.
“Ahem, although it’s not allowed in principle, given that the host has been actively completing the commission, this system specially rewards the host with a special prop.” “Reward: Telescopic Baton [Modified] (Recycled after the commission is completed)” “With this baton, deterrence against enemies increases by 100%, damage against enemies increases by 100%, portability increases by 70%, difficulty of use decreases by 100%, hardness is infinite, usage conditions: None.” “To fulfill the promise of the city’s law enforcement officers and to protect the city from being infringed upon by lawbreakers, the system has specially modified this telescopic baton so that it possesses power that ordinary batons do not have.” “Sweep away underworld forces and eliminate evil, success is imperative!” “Now, go wipe out that group of criminals!” Immediately after, a telescopic baton appeared in Akari’s hand.
This baton was not long, only about 35cm, but holding it in her hand, it was unexpectedly exceptionally lightweight.
“Good grief, XN, you can even get a baton?” Holding the baton and feeling the texture of plastic and pure iron, Akari felt quite surprised inwardly.
Truly worthy of being a system, XN had everything, even a specially modified baton.
“Of course, this system has always upheld the principle that what is produced is a boutique, and the control over the precision and quality of our products is impeccable.” XN smugly.
“Then what was going on with that radish yesterday?” Hearing this, Akari asked with an indignant glare.
“That was an accident; the system wasn’t connected to relevant knowledge at the time, so the radish produced was a bit crude…” “However, now there’s no such worry anymore~” XN raised its finger and swore to Akari with absolute certainty.
It seemed that this system was reliable most of the time.
Facing the gradually approaching enemies, Akari’s expression turned serious as she drew the baton and assumed a combat defensive stance.
She had to admit that the experience of that professional soldier was extremely precious.
Even though her martial prowess was retracted, the rich experience and combat experience she possessed were still useful.
When facing this kind of situation, putting up a defensive stance and minimizing the target area as much as possible was the most important thing.
Charging brainlessly would only get her beaten directly into a foldable screen by the opposite side.
“Looks like I can only start with that burly man first.” The burly man who had lunged earlier looked at Akari as if seeing a mortal enemy, his eyes turning extra red with hatred.
Gripping a baseball bat in his hand, he swung a strike directly toward Akari.
The power of this strike was indeed not small; Akari even heard the piercing sound of the baseball bat cutting through the air.
However, Akari didn’t give him any leeway at all.
Relying on her own reflexes, she quickly dodged the strike, and then fiercely lashed out at the opponent’s wrist.
What she didn’t expect was that this seemingly inconspicuous strike actually made her hear a clear sound of bone fracture.
Inside this alley, the burly man fell to the ground and blocked the path of several others, preventing them from surrounding her.
Perhaps this was also the only advantage of one-versus-many.
