Chapter 1341: 1341
Seeing that his identity as an international friend was useless, the leading foreigner could only turn his head and whisper to one of his companions, “Toby, go and stall him. The rest of you, follow me and leave this place first. Remember, if you can resolve this peacefully, then do it peacefully. Even if you have to fight, try not to make things too big. Our identities can not be exposed. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, do not attract the attention of the police.”
“Okay.”The man named Toby nodded. He walked up to Zhang Heng and used his tall body to block Zhang Heng’s line of sight. Then, he asked in broken Chinese, “Where is this butterfly?” “Where is it? We haven’t seen any warning signs on the way here. Furthermore, this butterfly was captured and brought back for my daughter to raise. It’s her birthday today.”
As he spoke, the other three retreated tacitly. They wanted to pass through the flowers and arrive at the other road on the right. However, the next moment, one of them turned around, he just happened to see his companion, who had stayed behind to delay, fall to the ground without saying a word.
He was shocked and immediately shouted to the person at the front, “Tom, there’s a situation!”
The other two also stopped in their tracks. The person who had opened his mouth to warn him had already pulled out a folding knife from his pocket.
However, he did not expect the person to be even faster. He was only about ten meters away from him a second ago, but in the next second, he had already appeared in front of him, at this time, before he could even fully open the folding knife, he had already been punched in the stomach.
Zhang Heng ignored the man who had collapsed with his stomach in his arms and quickly lunged at the Asian in front of him. However, with his companion’s warning, he was already prepared. He took out a pair of finger tigers and held them in his hands.

Unlike in the movies, Finger Tigers were not as flashy as they looked. In fact, the ferocious-looking finger tigers were more likely to cause damage to the attacker because the finger bones were a very fragile part, it was possible that the opponent might not have sustained any injuries, but his own finger might have already been fractured.
The Asian was currently wearing the most common four-fingered finger tiger. If worn correctly, it would be more powerful than beating someone up with bare hands, but under normal circumstances, it would not be fatal, this was also to carry out the order given by the foreign leader.
Furthermore, Zhang Heng could clearly feel that the other party had received professional training the moment they exchanged blows. At the very least, in terms of boxing, he was already comparable to some amateur boxers. His punches were swift and full of strength, at the same time, his body was agile like a cheetah.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had exchanged several punches. Even though Zhang Heng had the upper hand, he was not able to take down the other party immediately. However, this was enough to shock the two of them, they could not help but think of the legendary Chinese kung fu.
However, the fight had come out of nowhere. Up until now, the foreigners still did not know why the young man had suddenly attacked them. It could not really be because they could not randomly catch butterflies in the park, right.
But at this time, there was no point in thinking about these things. The foreigner named Tom was only stunned for a moment, and immediately joined the battle. He first put the glass bottle in his hand to the side, and then his right hand subconsciously touched a bulge at his waist, but after a moment of hesitation.., he moved up again and grabbed a black swinging rod.
After taking off the swinging stick, he first shook it up, then swung it down again. After that, he finished swinging the stick, and a section of alloy head came out from the front of the stick.

Holding the swinging stick, Tom rushed at Zhang Heng.
He had stood still for half a minute before, and he felt that he had already seen the situation clearly. Although this guy who appeared out of nowhere was very fast and very skilled, he had taken the opportunity to catch the two of them off guard, furthermore, he had managed to suppress his other companion. However, since he was unable to end the battle quickly, it meant that the difference in strength between the two sides was not too great.
If he joined the battle, then the outcome of the battle would change accordingly. It was because of this judgment that he had made his choice. However, to his surprise.., just as he put down the glass bottle in his hand and tried to get close to Zhang Heng, the situation before him changed again.
Zhang Heng did not compete with the opponent in front of him in fist techniques. Instead, he held the folding knife that he had obtained from killing the second foreigner. The Asian man, who had gradually gotten used to this fighting style, only saw a cold glint flash before his eyes, before he could react, all four of his fingers were cut off, and the finger tiger that had been held in his hand fell to the ground.
As the knife landed on Tom’s body, a chill rose in his heart. He realized that he had unknowingly fallen into the opponent’s trap. The opponent had been hiding his strength earlier.., of course, it wasn’t to create a dramatic effect, but to lure him to put down the glass bottle in his hand and approach him at the same time.
After realizing this, Tom stopped in his tracks. Even though he was the best among the four, he knew that he was no match for Zhang Heng. In the next moment, he threw away the stick in his hand without hesitation, at the same time, he reached for his waist again.
The risk of this mission was not high, so he was the only one among the four with a gun. If he could pull out the gun before Zhang Heng reached him, he would be able to regain control of the situation.
However, just as Tom was about to grab the handle of the gun, he felt a sudden pain in his right hand. The folding knife had already stabbed into the back of his hand, and Zhang Heng had also arrived in front of him.
At this point, Tom was finally able to relax. He knew that he had lost his last chance to fight back, so he raised his head to look into Zhang Heng’s eyes. Enduring the pain, he asked in fluent Chinese, “Who are you?” “Who are you? Why are you interfering in today’s matter?”
“I’m a completely unrelated person. Don’t be nervous,”Zhang Heng said. “I’m just passing by.”
Tom shook his head. “Then you should mind your own business. What we’re doing is not a bad thing. On the contrary, if we succeed, it will be more beneficial to you, me, and the entire human race.”
“The last person who gave me such a beautiful vision is already dead.”
“Of course you can kill me, or even all of us, but that won’t stop what is destined to happen.”
“I didn’t intend to stop it.”Zhang Heng walked up to Tom and pulled out the pistol at his waist. He opened the magazine and looked at the bullets inside. “I only have a few questions for you.”
“Save your energy. I Won’t answer anything,”Tom said straightforwardly.
Zhang Heng nodded. “Then I have no more questions.”
