Fatal Shot - Chapter 281

Chapter 281: NPC Instructor… Internal Strength?

A sniper rifle gunshot!

A white light of death flashed across September Night Rain’s body, after which he slumped onto the ground with hate and vengeance on his face.

You have killed an agent mission opponent. Bonus agent mission points earned: 200!

Following the system message, an explosion beside September Night Rain’s corpse produced a large pile of 20 to 30 prizes!

These prizes were all undoubtedly high-grade goods. Feng Luo could tell from just a glance that quite a few pieces were high-quality Rare equipment whose three-dimensional figures he had seen before at the Exchange. Not to mention the Level-50 Rare staff in September Night Rain’s hand, his Rare-grade energy cloak, and his head accessory, similarly at Level 50…

There were even two rings on his hand and the necklace on his neck. The designs of the three accessories were actually very similar, highly likely belonging to a set. The value of a Rare-grade accessory set was hard to measure!

With this explosion, even a star player like September Night Rain would have probably taken the rewards. After all, quite a lot of them were top-quality equipment, unable to even be bought using credits!

However, Feng Luo did not waste time to loot the whole area of equipment. Instead, he immediately shifted his sights with the Scout Beetle in the air to observe other battlegrounds!

Although this battle between him and September Night Rain had seemed quite long, in actual fact, the length of time that had passed from Feng Luo firing the first shot to the white light of death flashing across September Night Rain, had only been nine seconds!

Correct—only nine seconds!

For PK in War, in situations where there was no hiding, the conclusion would actually be very quick, especially between the Sniper and Manipulator professions, both of which had high attacks and low HP!

Of course, neither of the two of them had HP that was very low. Feng Luo’s HP had already broken past 6,000! September Night Rain had lost more than 5,000 HP before becoming white light. This similarly showed the value of the equipment on him, because it was impossible for him to possess an “Enhancement” talent like Feng Luo’s. Such rich HP had clearly been accumulated by using equipment. Who knew? September Night Rain, who had already been kicked out of the game, may have currently been throwing a massive tantrum in reality, in the luxurious bedroom of the sea villa that was said to have over 10 servants!

Boom!

At the edge of the cliff, the fire burning in the wooden pavilion had already been extinguished. Because the whole pavilion was now slowly collapsing, its ceiling and wooden pillars, heavy after being drenched by the rainwater, all fell off the almost 100-meter tall cliff!

From inside the falling pavilion, two humanoid silhouettes speedily rushed out!

Even though Feng Luo had cleanly finished off September Night Rain in less than 10 seconds, the true center of this team battle was still this fight because the two parties battling here were two NPCs: Haruko and Hunting Tiger!

In the few seconds that had passed, the activity here had surpassed that of the other battlefields. Even the pavilion had been demolished!

When Haruko jumped onto the empty space of the platform, her samurai sword sliced down on Hunting Tiger. The dense falling rain in the sky flew and shattered even though when the blade had not even come into contact with the air—it was as if her “internal strength” alone was enough to do this. It was like a special effect in the movies!

But in this type of science-fiction game, there was no such thing as “internal strength.” Through the Scout Beetle’s special vision, what Feng Luo was actually seeing now was… the samurai sword in Haruko’s hand was covered in a layer of faint golden semi-transparent energy. This energy was as radiant as a Manipulator’s energy, but compared to the four energies of fire, wind, earth, and water, the energy on the samurai sword was completely different.

This was an energy type that Feng Luo had never seen before! And it was not only Haruko’s samurai sword that had that energy; Hunting Tiger’s shield had the same energy protection too. Only, his was of a dark khaki color!

Clang!

The samurai sword Haruko slashed out, meeting the alloy shield wielded by Hunting Tiger. The moment the energies of the two seemingly similar yet varied colors clashed into each other, it was like fire and water meeting. It erupted into the surroundings in an explosive manner!

Boom!

Within the five-meter radius around the two, everything was absorbed by the force. Even the raindrops that fell from the sky flew back up!

******

Another battlefield belonged to Number 37, ranked at second place, and that mysterious Scout! However, in the Scout Beetle’s vision, there was only the silhouette of Number 37.

The layer of the energy shield protected almost his whole body, and the intense waves of the fire energy looked like a fireball! There was even a “fire dragon”-like column of flames circling his body, continuously setting ablaze trees and vegetation cover, filling the region with densely rolling smoke!

It was little wonder that Number 37 was the player ranked in second place in points!

The ability of a Fire Manipulator in such weather, in the pouring rain, could be said to be largely restricted; one’s skills and powers would probably be cut in half.

However, his skills still caused a great effect! It was just that even if he made use of his skill to set ablaze everything in his surroundings, that mysterious Scout had practically vanished, making him unable to attack at all!

******

But Feng Luo only glanced once at these two battlefields—what he was truly focused on was the third battlefield!

On this battlefield, the combat was not between two people. It was among four people!

Some time ago…

When Big Pineapple saw that his opponent was Nightingale, he knew that it was almost impossible to triumph over the opponent. Hence, he used his advantage of being the first to enter the forest to hide carefully, then raised his shield and charged in Phoenix’s direction with all his might the moment the countdown was up!

Phoenix and Number 74 who were originally on this battlefield. Each had already discovered the opponent and thus had started parrying the moment the countdown had ended!

A red alloy longsword and a black alloy longsword continuously clashed. They somersaulted, parried, rotated in the air, and slashed simultaneously… A series of Light Armored Warrior defense-type and close-combat-type skills were unleashed by the hands of these two!

Their equipment and their abilities were not all that different, but Number 74 was a little stronger in the aspect of combat knowledge. Thus, when Feng Luo finished off September Night Rain, after the two had fired off their first round of skills, Number 74 had secured a bit of an advantage. But right after that, Big Pineapple’s entrance from behind put him in a state of being flanked by two enemies—in front and in back.

But just when Big Pineapple and Phoenix were prepared to finish off Number 74 together with all they had—

Pai!

An object like an incendiary bomb was thrown onto the battlefield.

In the light of the fire—not with a submachine gun in hand but a grey stiletto raised—Nightingale, a look of mockery on his face, revealed himself!

The scene had quickly turned into a 2V2 battle!
