Reboot: Mechanic

When Shi Tian flashed a sympathetic expression, other spectators that came to watch the show were unable to contain their laughter anymore.

"Hahaha, is this some kind of new marketing tactic?" 

"This is too hilarious. Look at those people turning purple from rage." 

"Don't be rude, this kid is clearly showing sympathy to these fools!" 

Given that Shi Tian only targeted these four people, the other spectators were taking joy in their misfortunes. At the same time, they are throwing oil into the fire, purposely causing these four people to be even more furious. 

By doing so, these spectators could use them to kill Shi Tian, and the retaliation would naturally be theirs to face. 

And of course, Shi Tian also understood that there are such types of people that would attempt such a thing.

"What are the names of you four?" Shi Tian smiled and asked calmly. 

However, the four people were too mad to care about what Shi Tian asked. They were no different than a ticking bomb that was ready to explode at any moment.

Shi Tian nodded his head when they paid no heed to his question. 

"Since you don't want to introduce yourself first, then allow me to start. My name is Gavin, and today I'm here to offer you a brand new product." He then said, smiling amicably at them. 

"Save it, you damn brat! Even if I must offend whoever is behind you, I'm going to kill you for being rude." One of the four people sneered coldly and shouted. 

"Kill me for being rude?" Shi Tian raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly. 

"Please educate me on what words did I say wrong? Was I wrong about you losing your companions? Was I wrong about you being an idiot to manage to have your companion die whereas you survived?" 

Seeing how there was no response, Shi Tian calmly inspected these four people's reactions. 

These four people were the only ones brave enough to come forward and threaten him. As for the other spectators here, he could see some were agitated as well, but remained still, clearly unwilling to come forward themselves. 

It just goes to show that they are unwilling to suffer the consequences of attacking him, despite being insulted.

Shaking his head, Shi Tian walked around the stall and approached the man who was still holding a saber-like weapon at him. 

"My head is right here, so if you think what I say is wrong. Then by all means, use that sharp weapon of yours to decapitate me." Shi Tian spread his arms, an action equivalent to saying he would not defend himself. 

With Shi Tian making such a statement, the man with the saber-like weapon started to hesitate. 

After all, Shi Tian's action was so out of the norm and was completely difficult to comprehend. 

The other spectators were equally dumbfounded to see such a scene. They had seen people willing to risk their everything to survive, but never one that would willingly offer their heads up. 

Meanwhile, Mary was utterly confused by Shi Tian's action. She had been watching from the sideline and couldn't believe what her eyes were seeing.

"Just what is Nathan trying to do? Is he advertising or committing suicide?" She muttered, her hand subconsciously reaching for the dagger in her belt. In the case that the random man really attempted to slice Shi Tian's head, she was ready to advance forward to block it. 

"Come on big man. Weren't you acting all tough and strong earlier? Why aren't you attacking me?" Shi Tian asked in confusion. 

"D-Don't you dare!"

"Dare what? I'm defenseless here, so why aren't you making a move?" 

Beads of sweat continued to drop from the random man's forehead, clearly shocked by the situation. Disbelief, confusion, skepticism, and all kinds of emotions were rushing through his brain. 

"Hmph, let me attack this cocky bastard then!" Another person from the spectator couldn't handle it any longer and rushed toward Shi Tian. 

"How dare you-" Mary was about to advance forward to block the person, but paused when she saw what had occurred. 

The person that had jumped out from the crowd was blasted, his frontal body completely scarred with wounds. 

While everyone was still busy comprehending what just happened, Shi Tian uttered, "How disappointing!" 

He patted the shoulder of the random man that somehow still had his saber-like weapon up and whispered to his ear, "You're quite lucky to have not made a move. Otherwise, your fate would have been like that person earlier." 

Patting his shoulders a few more times, Shi Tian walked back to the stall, giving Mary a wink.

Once everyone's mind started to clear up and realized what just happened in the split seconds, they were filled with shock. This was the safe hold, so it was an unwritten rule that fighting and killing here are prohibited. 

Yet such a thing had actually occurred under their eyes. What was worse was that they couldn't even react to it until it was already over. 

Their attention soon returned to Shi Tian once he clapped his hands together.

"Everyone, what you just witnessed is the new product of Optic Mech. And what is it exactly? That must have been the question in your mind, right?" Shi Tian asked smilingly, ignoring the person that had received the blast, his life, and death still unknown. 

And to be fair, it was indeed the cold hard truth that the crowd's interest didn't even lay on the attacker, but on Shi Tian. 

They were extremely curious as to what Shi Tian had used. 

With their own eyes, they clearly didn't see Shi Tian making any foul or sneaky action. He was heavily scrutinized from the start, yet he was still able to cause the attacker to be sent flying with an unimaginable number of wounds. 

"You guys must be itching in curiosity now, right? Look at you man, even your saber is put away now." Shi Tian chuckled softly when almost all the hostilities from these people had vanished. 

Instead, they were all replaced with a frantic look, almost as if they wanted to pounce on him for the product. 

This was indeed a satisfactory demonstration that he wanted to achieve.
