What surprised the crowd though was the fact that the moment these guys appeared on the alley, the 5 people in front of them, Eric suddenly turned around and jumped towards them.
None of them was able to understand what was going on, why would Eric do something like that suddenly!?
Still, with their numbers no matter what Eric had planned was bound to get burned to ashes, as none of them moved from their spots with smug expressions.
In fact, they had thought that this was just Eric's try to attack and catch them by surprise, like that he might have some hope of dealing with them.
None of those guys took it seriously though, as they all had the confidence that they could easily deal with a 'kid' who was still wet behind the ears, no matter how strong he was.
