Fatal Shot

Chapter 464: Xing Shao’s Death

“F*ck, damn it!” Xing Shao hesitated for less than a second then turned violently, walking a few steps back beside the Heavy Armored Warrior on the ninth floor who was holding up his alloy shield to support the rear.

“Xing Shao, why have you come back? Don’t tell me there’re enemies below too.” Compared to Xing Shao whose profession was Scout, the visual sense of that Heavy Armored Warrior, standing on the stairway protecting his retreat, clearly did not have the ability to be able to look far in the special-made smoke bomb.

He was still barely able to see Xing Shao running behind him clearly. He initially stayed at the top, prepared to guard the passageway and let Xing Shao retreat.

He had first heard Xing Shao’s submachine gun’s firing attack, and before he could provide aid, he was made dizzy and blinded by the Commander bat’s indiscriminate supersonic wave attack.

Seeing Xing Shao rushing back now, left him a little confused.

“We’re clogged up by a pet they’ve summoned and can’t go back down, we can only take them on!” Xing Shao yelled, gritting his teeth, while the sci-fi model Legendary submachine gun in his hands already fired a string of bullets at the passageway where Feng Luo was, from where the sniper rifle gunshots had previously sounded.

“Da, da, da!”

One after another, special bullets with a semi-transparent ice shell surface burst out from the Legendary grade submachine gun; instead of the boiling hot bullet it should originally have been, each shot had a slight chill on its surface.

Xing Shao’s battle awareness was actually not bad.

This string of bullets had completely formed a precise fan-shape, sweeping across at a height of around one meter from the ground. This way, the opponent would definitely be shot as long as they were still in the passageway.

However, Xing Shao thought that the Sniper no longer in the passageway by now.

Because Snipers’ battle tactic was to retreat once they had fired a shot and jump back out in the next interval in attack. Therefore, he did not hold onto any hope for this attack; his goal was just to contain that Sniper for a bit, then coordinate with the Light Armored Warrior to first finish off Onishi who had already charged close to the area of the smoke bomb.

The battle between Onishi and the Light Armored Warrior was disrupted by the smoke bomb; although he could not see clearly, he heard groaning coming from the Light Armored Warrior in the smoke.

As a Scout, Onishi had actually secured the upper hand in close-combat.

“Change of battle tactic, we finish off Onishi first!” Xing Shao yelled to the Heavy Armored Warrior beside him as he attacked in Feng Luo’s direction. Just as he had finished his words, his eyes widened.

In his sight and the direction his submachine gun was pointed, a human silhouette had rushed out fiercely from outside the area of the smoke bomb. On the back of the tactical vest of this very blurry human silhouette in the smoke was a sniper rifle.

“You actually...” Xing Shao had imagined all sorts of possibilities, but he had not thought that that Sniper would have actually charged straight into the area of the smoke bomb.

If the opponent had rushed over, why was there no prompt of a hit from the detective shooting before?

Amidst the panic, Xing Shao’s reaction was still pretty quick. The muzzle of the submachine gun in his hands quickly turned, and he pulled the trigger once it was facing Feng Luo’s direction.

“Continuous Shooting!”

The Expert grade Continuous Shooting had fired five bullets in an instant, all flying at Feng Luo’s chest.

The moment the muzzle had shifted its angle, Feng Luo’s charging body had spontaneously shifted a step to the side.

“Da, da!”

Feng Luo did not choose to shift completely to the side, but wanted to adjust his angle through the shift. Out of the five bullets, there were only two that hit Feng Luo.

“Pa, pa!”

When the two bullets hit Feng Luo, they immediately stopped when they were still at a distance of half a foot from his body, and turned and flew in the reverse direction.

At the same time, a click-like sound of the cracking of an Energy forcefield sounded from Feng Luo’s chest area.

With the area filled with yellowish-white smoke, that transparent forcefield at his chest formed by over 10 Energy Beetles was naturally not easy to be clearly seen.

The effect of the Energy Beetles’ forcefield on long-range attacks, especially Energy attacks, was very clear, slightly more than that on long-range physical attacks.

Even if it was weaker, it was still sufficient to absorb the two shots plus the two bullets that Xing Shao had previously blindly shot before it was broken. Absorbing four shots was already good enough.

With “Raging Charge,” Feng Luo’s speed was two times faster compared with Onishi who had Talent-enhancement in this kind of environment.

After Xing Shao’s Continuous Shooting, and because the skill’s negative limit of being unable to shoot again within half of a second, he had already absolutely charged to the front of the Heavy Armored Warrior blocking in front of Onishi. In his hand was a reverse military knife which the general color could not be seen in the thick smoke.

“F*ck, what’s going on?” Xing Shao was in a mess.

As a top-notch Scout, Onishi was using a sniper rifle in battle, this Sniper was holding a military knife and charging into a smoky region for close-combat.

This was not scientific, especially how that Heavy Armored Warrior who had reacted because of Xing Shao’s attack hurriedly raised his shield to ram violently at the charging Feng Luo but was kicked hard on the shield by Feng Luo’s SUV combat shoes which were the same as Xing Shao’s.

The Heavy Armored Warrior had engaged all the defense skills, except “Unmovable Mountain.”

This skill would greatly reduce his personal movement speed, and would be disadvantageous if the need for quick retreat in battle comes up.

As a Heavy Armored Warrior without this skill engaged, it seemed like he could not block the kick coming from this Sniper player who was Feng Luo under all-out charge. action

“Bash!”

In Xing Shao’s widened eyes, the Heavy Armored Warrior together with his alloy shield of over 1.8 meters and alloy armor of over 300 catties, was kicked by Feng Luo to the other side of the passageway, completely engulfed by the smoke.

Feng Luo charged straight to Xing Shao’s side, his bright black eyes without much fluctuation met with the panicking Xing Shao.

“Peng!”

When Xing Shao moved backward in panic with his finger continuously pressing down on the Legendary submachine gun, which had finally passed the limit period, attempting to shoot at Feng Luo’s chest who had already charged to his side, Feng Luo had taken a step forward. With his left hand in an SUV glove, he directly grabbed the gun barrel of the Legendary grade submachine gun, that was not hot after its firing.

Then, a powerful wave of energy brought the gun barrel to the side.

“Da da da...”

The special bullets shot from the Legendary submachine gun only hit the ceiling, sending shattered stone and ice-cold bullets flying everywhere.

In this process, the Ghost Weep held in Feng Luo’s right hand stabbed at Xing Shao’s chest with a sharp swoosh as it cut the air.

“Chi!”

“-5089!”

The tip of Ghost Weep’s blade pierced effortlessly through Xing Shao’s expensive SUV combat uniform, the reddish-black blade of 30 centimeters penetrating his heart.

Above Xing Shao’s head, a damage coefficient of over 5000 flashed above.

“Ah!” Xing Shao let out an unbearably painful groan.

As a self-proclaimed Expert grade player, his pain sense had always been set to 50%.

This feeling of being stabbed in his heart with the ice-cold metallic blade penetrating his body made his eyes widen and made him cry out uncontrollably.

He was more panicked about the super-high damage of Feng Luo’s stab.

Using just a military knife to attack, a Sniper whose close-combat should be extremely weak had actually cut 70% of his HP with one stab.

This was when he was wearing War’s most quality Level 50 Rare equipment and had used more than one B grade Buffing Potion in advance.

“How’s it possible?” Xing Shao thought in utter disbelief. “Don’t tell me his military knife is also Legendary grade equipment. But even if it was, it wouldn’t be possible to have such a rad damage as a secondary weapon. Why’s his strength so high? I’ve added much strength in my equipment and I have more than 10 points of permanent strength-enhancing attribute but even my gun muzzle couldn’t be moved back after being grabbed by him. Why does it feel like this Sniper is even better than Onishi at close-combat?” Xing Shao had all sorts of thoughts.

Just then, Feng Luo’s right hand had pulled the Ghost Weep out, stabbing into his chest once again.

“Save me!” Only then did Xing Shao realize that his life was already at its end.

As he struggled and shouted for help, his right hand hurriedly let go of the submachine gun that was still competing with Feng Luo and went for his chest, attempting to use his SUV tactical gloved right hand to grab onto the Ghost Weep.

The defense coefficient of the SUV tactical glove was a C-, this was equivalent to the defense coefficient of the light armor; definitely able to block the stabs of most military knives at an appropriate angle.

But that was provided it was a typical military knife.

“Chi!”

In the end, Xing Shao’s panicked grabbing at the Ghost Weep was stabbed through by the 30 centimeter-long reddish-black blade, through the tactical glove.

Ghost Weep’s attack coefficient was a B grade, another point was that Feng Luo’s hand that was holding onto the knife had on the same SUV tactical glove as him. The Rare attribute of this top-notch Rare equipment increases the destruction ability of the usage of military knife and stiletto types of weapons by 20%.

“Ah!” Xing Shao let out an unbearably painful cry.

“-2072!”

A yellow weak-point damage coefficient flashed above his head.

This damage did not take his life, as damage caused by hitting the end areas of limbs in the game would have a damage upper limit. The defense power of the SUV tactical glove was not bad, the damage of Ghost Weep piercing through it had still been reduced by quite a bit.

This was actually only delaying Xing Shao’s death by less than a second.

Right after, the blade of Ghost Weep, which energy had not been exhausted, had already brought Feng Luo’s palm as it stabbed into his already wounded chest.

“-1277!”

A red lethal attack. In an instant, Xing Shao felt the energy in his entire body lost and his vision turned dark.

In the last less than one second before he was kicked out of the game after the white light of death flashed across his body, he was still stupefied and confused.

This person was clearly a Sniper, so why was he able to produce such a high damage in close-combat?

In terms of strength, he, as a Scout with Expert grade combat skills, had actually lost to a Sniper?
