America's Greatest Villain: I Defeat Magic with Magic

The red information panel flashed by in his field of vision, and Chen Yuan did not get a clear look at the other party's face.

But he knew very well that the professional assassins lurking in the crowd had already circled around behind him, ready to strike like venomous snakes at any moment.

If an ordinary person were in this situation, they would most likely choose to go to a main road with a large flow of people, trying to make the killer hesitate to act.

But real killers don't care whether they accidentally hurt innocent bystanders.

In their eyes, there is only one goal: to kill the target by any means necessary!

Therefore, Chen Yuan changed direction without hesitation, maximizing his 1.2 agility attribute, and headed straight for a secluded and dark street.

Moreover, after his strength was upgraded to 1.5, his legs unleashed a terrifying thrust far exceeding that of the past.

In just a few seconds, Chen Yuan darted forward more than ten meters and disappeared completely into a dark alley without streetlights in the blink of an eye.

Then, a middle-aged Latino man with curly hair and a sinister face followed closely behind Chen Yuan, quickly weaving through the crowd on the street and slipping into the alley as well.

However, as soon as he entered the alley, the middle-aged assassin Julio suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Because his target had simply vanished into thin air!

Julio gripped the pistol hidden under his trench coat with some confusion, his eyes quickly scanning the empty alleyway before him, but he found nothing unusual.

This alley is over fifty meters long, with walls on both sides nearly three meters high. Even if a normal person ran at full speed, it would be impossible to cross it in a few seconds.

However, from the moment Julio noticed Chen Yuan accelerating to the moment he chased him into the alley, only five or six seconds had passed.

The alley was bare on both sides, with only a few smelly garbage cans; there was nowhere for a grown person to hide.

Does the target have the ability to fly or disappear underground?

However, based on the intelligence gathered earlier, the person Black Snake boss sent to kill was clearly just a small restaurant owner.

With that thought in mind, Julio held his breath, drew his pistol, and cautiously approached the depths of the alley.

He was on high alert, constantly looking around, trying to catch any clues left by Chen Yuan.

Just then, a very faint metallic scraping sound came from above.

Driven by the instincts of a top assassin, Julio didn't even look before raising his arm and firing!

"Pfft! Pfft!"

The silenced pistol emitted only two muffled exhalations in the quiet alley.

However, this burst of shots, which should have been lethal, completely missed its target.

A dark figure descended from the sky like a roc spreading its wings. It was Chen Yuan, who used the rusty fireproof iron frame above the alley to land directly behind Julio with lightning speed.

"Bang!"

A thud that made your teeth ache exploded, and Julio was thrown forward four or five meters as if he had been hit by a truck.

Although Chen Yuan's physique doesn't look particularly robust, with the added strength of 1.5 times, his punches already possess the terrifying lethality of a professional boxer.

Moreover, after integrating the [Basic Combat Mastery] skill, which is worth 500 villain points, he can mobilize all his muscle groups in a very short time and unleash a swift killing technique.

The powerful punch struck Julio directly in the back of the neck, and the huge impact caused him to briefly lose consciousness in mid-air.

Julio fell heavily to the ground, struggling to get up with his strong will, but soon fell down again in spasms.

Chen Yuan walked forward expressionlessly and picked up the pistol that the other person had dropped on the ground.

Then he reached out and flipped the motionless assassin over like turning a salted fish.

Just then, a chilling light suddenly burst forth!

Julio, who had seemed to be unconscious, suddenly flashed a fierce light in his eyes. He pulled out a dagger from somewhere and thrust it straight at Chen Yuan's throat without warning!

But Chen Yuan was prepared. He swiftly reached out with his left hand and firmly gripped the other man's wrist that was holding the knife.

Immediately afterwards, his right hand transformed into a brutal uppercut, which landed squarely on Julio's jawbone.

"Snap!"

With the cracking sound of bones breaking, Chen Yuan did not pause at all, and the second, third and fourth punches poured down like a storm!

Under the relentless and devastating blows, even Julio, a professional assassin who had undergone rigorous training, quickly coughed up blood and lost consciousness completely.

In his dazed state, he heard a voice that seemed to come from hell whispering in his ear:

"Go back and tell Black Snake. He owes me a debt, and I will settle it with him personally."

Chen Yuan did not directly break the other person's neck.

After all, his real identity is just an ordinary college student and a law-abiding restaurant owner.

Under the current conditions, disposing of the body of a professional killer is extremely inconvenient and could easily leave evidence against them.

However, while the death penalty may be avoided, punishment is inevitable.

Chen Yuan stood up, expressionless, raised his leather shoe, and stepped on the other person's right wrist bone.

With a crisp crack, the assassin's career came to an end.

He then searched Julio's person, taking several hundred dollars in cash and an iPhone, staging the scene as a typical violent robbery common in the South Side, before quickly leaving the alley.

[Ding! Detected that the host used cruel methods to severely injure an innocent assassin. Villain Points awarded: 50 points.]

However, just as Chen Yuan stepped out of the alley, he bumped into an unexpected person.

"The...boss?!"

Chen Yuan stopped and looked at the terrified white girl in front of him, softly uttering her name:

"Emily Harper".

"You saw it all?"

Emily's mouth opened slightly, she swallowed, and subconsciously held the performing arts textbook in front of her chest, but her eyes involuntarily drifted to Chen Yuan's bulging trench coat pockets.

She had just taken a shortcut back to her apartment when she saw her boss run into the alley and somehow climb over a four- or five-meter-high fireproof iron frame.

Then a middle-aged man rushed into the alley with a gun, only to be beaten to death by the boss who appeared out of nowhere.

Moreover, the boss also took the other party's wallet, phone, and even a handgun!

Such an exaggerated and bloody scene left Emily speechless for a moment.

This is a real scene of violent crime!

The boss not only beat up an armed robber severely, but also skillfully robbed him of all his belongings.

Their movements were so swift and professional that they were even more skilled than the most ruthless gangsters in Los Angeles!

What should I do? Will my boss think I saw something I shouldn't have and kill me off?

Los Angeles is awful. I should have listened to my mom and stayed in the countryside as a waiter...

In an instant, countless scenes of murder in Hollywood movies flashed through Emily's mind.

However, Chen Yuan spoke calmly:

"That was a street thug who had bad intentions towards me. I was just beating him up in self-defense. If you feel guilty, you can take out your phone and call the police right now."

Chen Yuan genuinely didn't care; the hitman definitely had a criminal record anyway. He had only knocked the other man unconscious, and even if the police came, it could be classified as self-defense.

One is a notorious Latino killer, and the other is a college student from a prestigious university and a restaurant owner with a clean background.

It's obvious who the Los Angeles Police Department will protect.

However, to Chen Yuan's surprise, a blush of excitement appeared on Emily's originally pale face.

Instead of calling the police, she glanced again at the fallen assassin not far away, her eyes lighting up as she leaned closer to Chen Yuan and asked excitedly in a low voice:

"Boss! What you just used... was that the legendary kung fu?!"

"He can dart up onto the metal frame in a flash, and his punches are so fast and powerful that even someone with a gun can't react in time!"

At this point, Emily suddenly raised her head, her eyes sparkling as she stared at Chen Yuan, and said with fervent enthusiasm:

"Jack Cheng and Bruce Lee are my biggest idols! Boss, please teach me kung fu!"
