Chapter 664: Chapter 221 The Basic Situation of the Mine_2
“What the hell is that!”
The feeling of killing intention stabbed at Leonard Churchill’s heart like steel needles, even causing his pupils to contract slightly.
He had never experienced such a frenzied and bizarre aura before.
The figure moved so quickly that it managed to land a punch in the blink of an eye, just as Hawk nose’s dagger was slashing at the guard.
Leonard watched the speed and couldn’t help but be astonished.
However, what shocked him even more happened next.
After all, being a professional assassin, Hawk nose retreated a foot violently, relying on his super agility, just managing to dodge the punch.
But this punch clearly did not hit, yet the man’s expression suddenly became stiff.
Leonard saw the ripples swirling around the fist and immediately understood what was happening.
This was the ability that a Fighter cultivates to injure enemies from a distance, similar to a Swordsman’s “Sword Air”, called “Fist Wave”.
Being able to master this technique meant you were considered an expert among Fighters.
Even Leonard himself was barely considered a beginner at this point.
But before his thoughts could drift further, there was a “boom”—the Hawk nose, who was clearly not hit, exploded like a balloon filled with blood.
Blood and chunks of flesh broke apart and flew everywhere.
Leonard, not being too far away, got some on him as well.
Leonard looked on in shock, just like everyone else.
He hadn’t understood that punch just now!
On a closer look, Leonard finally made out the perpetrator—it was a Mutation human whose arms looked like bamboo poles!
A normal person’s arms consist of the upper and lower arm, but this guy had an extra segment of bone, like a gibbons’, allowing him to touch the ground easily when standing.
Was it such a Mutation Monster that killed a Second Tier assassin with one punch?
Leonard really couldn’t comprehend this.
It wouldn’t have been difficult for him to kill Hawk nose, but to explode someone into pieces with the power of a fist was beyond him.
After killing, the skinny-armed individual howled and laughed like a madman, disappearing into the depths of the mine like a Ghost, “Hahaha, I’ve comprehended, I’ve comprehended…”
Leonard stared intently at the unfathomable aura emanating from the man, full of doubt in his heart.
Suddenly, a possibility he barely dared believe crossed his mind, “Could it be… Fist Intention?”
He had seen masters who had comprehended Fist Intention.
Just a few days ago in Lion City, Catherine Carter’s father, the “Golden Lion” Carlo, had a similar presence with his mountain-shattering punches.
But that was a Sixth Tier master!
And now a randomly emerging, Mutation mad miner was a Martial Arts master who had comprehended Fist Intention?
Upon remembering how the mutant detected Hawk nose’s assassination attempt instantaneously, wasn’t that the legendary “Killing Intention Perception”?
It was said that some masters could even wake up instantly from sleep if someone looked at them with malicious intent.
These are some of the real-world applications of “Intention”.
“The problem with this mine?”
As Leonard wiped the still-warm blood from his face, he thought of a possibility.
Mutating to such an extent meant the miner had been living here for a long time. Continuous mental pollution from the environment could explain the comprehension of some Intention.
In that moment, Leonard also realized why those who hadn’t mutated didn’t dare to come out to exchange for food immediately, but waited for those monsters to take theirs first.
It wasn’t just the monstrous appearance that was frightening, it was that they were overpoweringly strong.
And there wasn’t just one Mutation worker.
Seeing the bloody flesh scattered all over the ground, each of them tilted their heads and kept laughing frantically.
It was an extremely eerie sight.
“But why are these Mutation Monsters helping the prison guards?”
Leonard felt fortunate he hadn’t acted rashly just now.
With a bit of thought, he guessed it was probably still related to food.
Mutated humans, now essentially on par with monsters, mostly operated on instinct.
Having worked as an animal trainer at a circus, Leonard knew that even the most ferocious beasts could be tamed in the face of food.
Following the death of Hawk nose, the man in the suit scoffed coldly, giving a warning with a glance at the other miners still exchanging for food.
Keep mining, or this will be your fate.
Soon after, the exchange of supplies ended.
Those who got bread ate eagerly, then quickly disappeared back into the mine, afraid someone might rob them of their food.
The man in the suit and a few armed guards packed up everything and walked back into the barrier, which was dark like a curtain.
Leonard’s fellow “co-workers” in transportation also hurried to leave this damned place.
But to their disappointment,
The men in suits walked into the passage with no problems.
However, when they tried to follow, the passage was like a mirage—visible but untouchable.
They could only watch helplessly as the others walked farther and farther away.
“Ah… sir, we haven’t gone in yet.”
The few transport workers immediately panicked, but no matter how much they yelled, there was no response.
Leonard wasn’t the least bit surprised, and instead turned his gaze toward the covetous eyes all around him.
These “newcomers” were all suspected of having supplies on them.
And this was indeed the case.
Leonard, due to his frequent visits to the Old Continent, had anticipated various scenarios, such as being trapped in some Relics.
Therefore, his Storage Ring always contained enough food and drink to last for several years.
But he hadn’t planned to give it away for free!
No sooner had the guards walked away than a burly man and a dozen miners in a group surrounded them, “Hey, you guys, have you brought any food with you?”
