F-class thief? Sorry, I can steal anything.

Chapter 225 Give me that knife!

The moment those words were spoken.

The dagger, made entirely of shadow, silently blended into the building's shadow and disappeared completely.

Zhao Hu couldn't even track the trajectory of its disappearance.

About five seconds passed.

At the window of a distant building, the hooded man who was calmly giving instructions suddenly stiffened.

His commands came to an abrupt halt.

He lowered his head with difficulty, his gaze fixed on his chest.

There, a pitch-black hole appeared out of nowhere.

What is this...?

His consciousness was completely swallowed up by eternal darkness.

However, the commander's sudden death became the final straw that broke the camel's back.

The already precarious ambush line collapsed instantly.

The survivors let out desperate screams, only to be torn apart and overwhelmed by the horde of zombies and Thor's forces.

"Done."

Chen Yifan clapped his hands, his face once again displaying that signature smile that was both honest and silly.

It was as if the Grim Reaper who had just taken lives from hundreds of meters away had nothing to do with him.

Zhao Hu stared intently at him, his throat so dry it felt like it was on fire, unable to utter a single word.

He now truly understood why the young lady insisted on having him participate.

I understand better now the meaning behind the young lady's comment that "Chen Yifan is a poisonous snake".

This snake is not only highly venomous.

Moreover, his methods are unpredictable and ever-evolving, making it impossible to predict from which angle he will bite next.

Zhao Hu even had a thought that sent chills down his spine.

If the target of the attack just now was him...

They probably wouldn't even know how they died.

Is this really just an ordinary high school student?

A level 27 professional?

At that moment, Zhao Hu made up his mind.

From now on, I must stay absolutely, positively away from this monster.

No, it means never mess with this guy again.

At this point, the battle on the scene had turned into a one-sided massacre.

Ten minutes later, the battlefield was cleared.

Thor's forces were finally able to focus their efforts on eliminating the endless stream of Void Aberrations.

Thor himself has completely transformed into the God of Thunder, who wields divine punishment.

He hovered in mid-air, his body crackling with lightning like dragons and snakes.

Bolts of lightning as thick as buckets tore through the sky, precisely striking the horde of corpses below, blasting the undead monsters possessed by Chen Yifan's vengeful spirits into charred remains in large swathes.

"That's about it."

Chen Yifan glanced down at the sparsely populated horde of zombies below and knew that the main event was about to begin.

"Walk!"

Chen Yifan grabbed Zhao Hu, who was still malfunctioning, his face filled with the shock and lingering fear of surviving a disaster, his acting was completely natural.

"Quick! They've almost finished off the monsters! We need to get down there right away, or we'll be considered criminals!"

Zhao Hu was pulled so hard that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

What kind of operation is this?!

He thought Chen Yifan was stirring up trouble to reap the benefits and wipe out both groups in one fell swoop.

So now... he has to go back to being a lackey?

Such a good opportunity, are we just going to give it up like this?

I don't understand.

I can't figure it out at all.

At this moment, Zhao Hu was completely unable to keep up with Chen Yifan's train of thought.

The battlefield returned to deathly silence.

The air was filled with a nauseating stench of burning and blood.

Thor lived up to his reputation as a top contender, even managing to annihilate the Scourge, the undead.

He won.

But it was only a Pyrrhic victory.

The two squads, which were originally full of ten people, now have only five people left, and all of them are injured.

Thor himself was also panting heavily, with several deep wounds on his body that exposed bone, from which blood was seeping out.

He looked at the mess on the ground, his azure eyes filled with barely suppressed rage.

Just then, two figures tumbled and crawled out of the half-collapsed building next to them.

It was Chen Yifan and Zhao Hu.

"Big...Big Brother?"

Chen Yifan's face showed just the right amount of fear, and his voice trembled as he looked at the tragic scene before him.

"Are you... done fighting?"

Thor turned his head.

His gaze, like two sharp, icy swords, pierced Chen Yifan and Zhao Hu.

The anger in his eyes was almost like a tangible thunderbolt erupting forth.

The burly man beside him, wielding two axes, was even more enraged and charged forward with his giant axes.

"You two bastards!"

He pointed the axe tip at Chen Yifan's nose, spitting everywhere:

"We're fighting tooth and nail here, and you two are just hiding in the back watching the show?!"

"No...no, big brother!"

Chen Yifan was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly, his expression extremely innocent.

"We want to help! But... but those monsters are too terrifying. With our limited strength, we simply... are powerless to help!"

As he spoke, he nervously tugged at Zhao Hu's sleeve, signaling him to quickly agree.

Zhao Hu: "..."

He just wanted to die on the spot.

This acting is absolutely outrageous!

Did they really think everyone was blind when they had that incredible strength before?

At least come up with a different excuse!

"Willing but unable?"

The burly man with the double axes was so enraged by these shameless remarks that his muscles trembled all over.

"I just saw with my own eyes that it was you who summoned those monsters!"

As he spoke, he raised his axe to chop down.

Zhao Hu immediately took a defensive stance.

"I'm innocent, brother!"

Chen Yifan immediately shouted, his grief and indignation making him seem as if he had suffered a great injustice.

He pointed to the demonic sword in his hand, his voice trembling with tears.

"I... I had no idea what was wrong with this broken knife! I just saw the situation was critical and wanted to take it out to scare the enemy, but who knew it would start yelling on its own! Those monsters, it really wasn't me yelling!"

This distorted explanation plunged all the survivors into an eerie silence.

I've seen shameless people.

I've never seen anyone so shameless.

Does this mean they're treating everyone like fools?

That's enough.

Thor's cold voice interrupted the farce.

He walked step by step to Chen Yifan.

His tall figure completely enveloped Chen Yifan in shadow, and the oppressive feeling was almost suffocating.

He lowered his head, his deep blue eyes fixed intently on Chen Yifan's eyes.

It was as if they were trying to peel his soul out of his body.

"Give me that knife."

His voice was devoid of any warmth.

Chen Yifan's body stiffened for a fleeting moment, so quickly that no one noticed.

"B-Big brother, what do you need this knife for? This...this is my livelihood..."

I'll say it again.

Thor's voice turned cold.

Give it to me.

A terrifying psionic pressure erupted like a landslide and a tsunami!

Zhao Hu's legs buckled, his kneecaps groaned under the strain, and he almost collapsed to his knees.

That Thor!

Is it really that unfathomable?

He had no doubt that if Chen Yifan said no again, Thor would instantly turn them both into charred remains.

At this moment, Chen Yifan's face was suddenly filled with struggle, reluctance, and extreme heartache.

He looked at the magic sword in his hand, then at Thor's frozen face, and finally, as if he had no choice, he made a decision, gritted his teeth, and stomped his foot.

With an attitude as if cutting off a piece of his own heart, he reluctantly handed over [Touch of the Howler].

"For...for you..."

His expression was so genuine that even the burly man with two axes next to him believed it to some extent.

It seems this guy really considers this strange knife his lifeblood.

Thor snatched the magic sword.

The instant he gripped the hilt of the knife.

"Kill—Hunger—Hate—"

Countless chaotic and venomous whispers, like billions of poisonous insects, rushed wildly into his mind!

Even with his steely will, he couldn't help but groan, his face turning deathly pale instantly.

What terrifying mental pollution!

When he looked at the demonic blade in his hand again, the horror in his eyes was instantly replaced by an even more intense greed!

This is absolutely an extraordinary cursed relic!

Once you can subdue it, your strength will reach a whole new level.

As for why they cannot be subdued?

The idea never even crossed his mind.

If even this seemingly dim-witted simpleton can do it, there's no reason why he, the mighty Thor, can't.

Then, he ignored Chen Yifan.

He began to mobilize the lightning power within his body, focusing all his attention on suppressing the violent resentment within the blade.

He didn't see it.

In front of him stood Chen Yifan, head bowed, his face contorted with "pain."

A chilling, triumphant smile flashed in those lowered eyes.

It became.

Chen Yifan thought to himself.

From using it in public to deliberately running around with it in his hand, everything was designed to arouse Thor's greed.

In retrospect, the results have been outstanding.

He not only naturally passed on the "hot potato" but also...

He even successfully made everyone believe that this was a cursed weapon that even he could subdue.

In this way, he can deliver a real "surprise" to all of them at the most crucial moment.

As for why they did this...

Chen Yifan remained unusually cautious.

As the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, it is like the successor to Mu Wanqing's office.

Every person is unfathomable.

They probably have too many cards to count.

This demonic sword...

That was his trump card.

Chen Yifan smiled silently to himself.

Thor, that guy, thought he took away a divine artifact?

pity……

What was taken away was a time bomb that could blow it to smithereens at any moment.

Especially the more than 100,000 vengeful spirits trapped in the knife.

His mental power had already left a unique mark on it.

They now obey only one master.

That was him, Chen Yifan.

As for Thor...

Ha ha!
