Slim Waist Like a Willow

As Jesse Thompson engaged in combat with Cedric, Bruce Roberts continued his verbal onslaught from the sidelines.

If it were just typical banter, Jesse Thompson would have had the confidence to quickly regain his composure with his unwavering determination and repel the two opponents in front of him. 

However, everything this guy said was related to Cynthia Sanchez.

Sweet lips?

Slim waist like a willow?

Lying next to him?

Damn it, how could he tolerate this?

While dodging Cedric's axe, Jesse Thompson roared angrily, ready to charge at Bruce Roberts.

"Getting anxious now?" Bruce Roberts smirked.

His Mental Power of 25 allowed him to focus much better than an ordinary person. He seized the emotional vulnerability in Jesse Thompson and swiftly sent a gust of wind blade towards him!

This timing coincided with Jesse Thompson's most unstable emotional state.

Whoosh! Thud!

The wind blade stirred up a fierce wind as it swept towards Jesse Thompson.

Although Jesse Thompson had used his special ability to predict the direction of Bruce Roberts' wind blade in advance, his rage compromised this ability, 

and his body wasn't as robust as it had been in his previous life. He couldn't dodge the wind blade in time!

"Ah..." Jesse Thompson gritted his teeth and let out a cry of pain as a long gash was opened on his right abdomen, staining his clothes with blood.

Since Bruce Roberts had compressed the wind blade, the closer one was to its center, the stronger the force it carried. 

Jesse Thompson, who wasn't hit directly in the front, was only pushed aside by the fierce wind and took a step back!

At that moment, Cedric seized the opportunity and delivered a swift kick.

During human-to-human combat, it was easy for an ordinary person to lose balance if struck by Bruce Roberts' wind blade.After losing his balance, the onslaught faced by Cedric was akin to a raging storm.

But Jesse Thompson was no ordinary individual; he was experienced in combat, with lightning-fast reflexes.

He forcefully twisted his body to evade Cedric's kick.

Then, using the fire axe in his hand, he forced Cedric back while swiftly moving to the left.

"You bastard, you son of a bitch!"

Seeing the wound on his abdomen, Jesse Thompson couldn't help but curse angrily.

Bruce Roberts couldn't engage in close combat with Jesse Thompson!

So, he just stood there watching Jesse Thompson. "Jesse Thompson, apologize to me and I'll forgive you!"

"Apologize? Apologize to your mother!"

"You're asking for it!"

Bruce Roberts sneered coldly!

Cedric understood and charged at Jesse Thompson again.

The person holding a grudge against Jesse Thompson was his past self.

It had nothing to do with his present self.

But from the attitude Cedric had displayed from the beginning, it was clear he wanted to eliminate Jesse.

He didn't even bother with diplomacy, or wait for an opportunity to assassinate!

What was the deal?

Did he think Jesse was weak and had him figured out?

"Bruce Roberts, you bastard, just wait for me, we'll meet again..."

Seeing Cedric charging again, Jesse Thompson didn't have time to think too much; he quickly ran towards the entrance to another realm.

Yes, he was running!

Even though he could defeat Cedric in a continued fight.

But he had already exhausted too much energy, and had been injured by Bruce Roberts' ability twice.

Was the second one a serious one?

In this situation, he didn't dare to linger in battle and quickly used his life-saving skills to flee into the distance.

"Wanna run? Huh..."

Bruce Roberts had anticipated that the other party might run, so he waited for him on the inevitable path.

By killing him, Bruce Roberts could not only eliminate a major threat but also gain his abilities.But Jesse Thompson's running speed was incredibly fast, and his movements were agile, making it impossible for Bruce Roberts' wind blades to lock onto him.

Most importantly, he wasn't engaging with Bruce Roberts at all; after dodging Bruce Roberts' attack, he didn't stop for a moment.

"Damn, how is this kid running so fast?"

Seeing the opponent instantly pulling several meters away after dodging his attack, Bruce Roberts couldn't help but curse.

He wanted to chase, but he couldn't catch up at all??

Upon closer inspection!

There seemed to be a slight energy fluctuation in Jesse Thompson's footsteps, and his running speed was at least 30% faster than his own??

Given the distance between them and Jesse Thompson's running speed, the wind blades simply couldn't hit him?

"Damn!"

"Is this... for real?"

Not only Bruce Roberts and Cedric, even James and Ignacio were dumbfounded.

Jesse Thompson's running speed was simply absurdly fast? It was even faster than Ignacio, who was skilled at escaping, at full speed!

Was this the speed an injured person could achieve??

Watching Jesse Thompson disappear through the exit, Bruce Roberts frowned.

Damn it!!

Was it because his luck hadn't run out yet, so he couldn't kill him?

Or was it simply because of strength?

Bruce Roberts quickly pondered and felt it should be the latter.

After all, since the apocalypse descended, he had only slightly improved his weapons, and his physical strength and abilities had naturally increased without active reinforcement.

It seemed like there was still some urgency?

Thinking of this, Bruce Roberts couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but at this point, he couldn't afford to think about anything else.

"Cedric, go after him and be careful!"

"Yes, Young Master Bruce!" Cedric nodded and followed Jesse Thompson closely.

Seeing Cedric leave, Bruce Roberts silently placed the small black iron crystal nucleus from his pocket into his mouth.

The black iron crystal nucleus was about the size of an adult's little fingernail!

Seeing the wound on his abdomen, Jesse Thompson couldn't help but curse angrily.

Bruce Roberts couldn't possibly engage in close combat with Jesse Thompson!

So he just stood there, watching Jesse Thompson: "Jesse Thompson, apologize to me, and I'll forgive you!"

"Apologize? Apologize to your mother!"

"You're asking for it!"

Bruce Roberts sneered coldly!
