《Thank you to Liu Xiu Cong's book friend for the 1888 starting coins, and also thank you to others for giving to Old Phantom, and for the many people who have voted and supported me these past two days! Thank you everyone》
Taking advantage of the gap left by Young Master Yun pushing through the crowd, Ye Zhongming saw a group of people dragging a somewhat scruffy middle-aged man with clear traces of being beaten on his face at the warehouse entrance. Two people were also kicking the middle-aged man's legs from behind, trying to force him to kneel.
Young Master Yun rushed forward and punched the person who had spoken up earlier, sending him flying. Then he tackled the two who were kicking the middle-aged man, and they started brawling.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Uncle Jia, who naturally wasn't as fast as the two evolvers, arrived to see his brother-in-law lying on the ground, covered in injuries, while his nephew was fighting with a small squad.
Ye Zhongming was somewhat helpless with Young Master Yun's fighting style, but he understood that this was typical for an evolver in the early apocalypse. Their bodies had evolved, but their combat skills were unrefined, relying entirely on their physical capabilities, which in other aspects were no different from ordinary people.
This situation would gradually disappear as the apocalypse progressed. Survivors would learn how to efficiently utilize their bodies and evolved powers through repeated near-death experiences.
The squad living here seemed to be a stronger one among the ordinary squads of the Burning Fury Battle Team. Seeing an unfamiliar young guy causing trouble, they weren't polite and attacked, putting Young Master Yun in a passive position.
Uncle Jia was kicked out, clutching his waist as he got up, and when he saw Ye Zhongming standing there motionless, he immediately shouted, "Help Little Yun, or he'll be beaten to death!"
Early apocalypse bases, like survivors who didn't know how to utilize their bodies, were still in an adaptation period, without established rules or customs on killing. The base leader wouldn't punish an entire squad for the death of a stranger, so if Young Master Yun was beaten to death, it would be in vain.
Uncle Jia anxiously approached Ye Zhongming, hoping he would help. Although this young man seemed weak and useless, having one more person to take hits was still helpful, perhaps preventing Young Master Yun from being beaten to death.
Ye Zhongming glanced at Uncle Jia but didn't speak or move.
Young Master Yun was a one-star evolver, and also a professional who had experienced the zombie tide battle. He was at a disadvantage because he was reacting emotionally to seeing his father being beaten. Once he calmed down, taking down these people would be no problem.
If dealing with a squad of two one-star evolvers and six or seven ordinary people required Ye Zhongming's intervention, then Young Master Yun truly wouldn't be worth cultivating.
"Damn, this kid has such a good gun? It's mine now!"
The man who had previously tried to make Young Master Yun's father kneel grabbed the gun that Young Master Yun had dropped, a greedy look in his eyes, and his expression darkened as he looked at Young Master Yun.
"Kill him for me! How dare he meddle in my business! Sick of living, huh?"
Seeing Ye Zhongming unmoved, Uncle Jia could only charge over himself, but with his strength, he was beaten back in less than two seconds.
By this time, more and more people were gathering outside, obviously attracted by the commotion.
It was at this time that Young Master Yun began to counterattack.
Already knocked down, he suddenly grabbed a foot that was kicking him. Under immense strength, this person fell towards Young Master Yun, who then kicked him away, knocking down several people on one side.
Standing up nimbly, Young Master Yun aimed at someone coming in to knock him down again and suddenly punched him in the face.
This time, Young Master Yun used his full strength.
The Starved Tiger Knight had already become Ye Zhongming's subordinate, and among the items Young Master Yun took when he left, there was a piece of mutated meat that enhanced his constitution. This punch was much heavier than that of an ordinary one-star evolver, and the target was an ordinary person. Although it didn't blow his head off, breaking his neck was easy. The person was punched hard, half his face caving in, and his head snapped to one side with a crack, his chin resting against his spine.
