Chapter 174: The charm of sniping

The reason why their Two-Winged Angel’s Holy Flame could reach over 1000 meters without its damage decaying was entirely due to the blessing of the purple-quality or higher talent, “Angel’s Authority.”

How could the Human Adventurer opposite them, without any divine blessings, possess such an ability?

Looking at the corpse of his compatriot, flickering like a candle in the wind, the Two-Winged Angel’s mind buzzed, unable to comprehend what had happened for a long time.

However, the next moment, when Chen Yuxuan’s large sniper rifle turned to aim at him, the Two-Winged Angel quickly realized… no matter what happened, he could not expose himself to this woman.

Therefore, the sole remaining Two-Winged Angel immediately hid behind the Lava Behemoth the moment he was targeted, intending to use the Lava Behemoth’s massive body to block this woman’s terrifying damage.

However, he wasn’t the only one afraid; the Lava Behemoth was equally terrified…

Even a Two-Winged Angel was instantly killed.

Its combat power index was similar to that of a Two-Winged Angel; although it was a bit larger and had a slightly longer health bar, based on the recent attack, even a health bar twice as long would have resulted in instant death.

Therefore, when the Two-Winged Angel hid behind it, the Lava Behemoth immediately felt something was amiss.

When it saw the dark muzzle of the gun aimed at it, the Lava Behemoth just wanted to curse.

But there was nothing it could do.

It couldn’t afford to provoke the woman in front, nor could it afford to provoke the Two-Winged Angel behind it.

The Lava Behemoth could only immediately use its talent abilities and general skills, applying all defensive skills it had to try and make itself tougher.

Under the enhancement of various buffs, the Lava Behemoth’s skin also transformed from deep red to a heavy, dark red.

At this moment, the Lava Behemoth was not praying for its skin to be hard enough, but rather praying that the other side wouldn’t shoot at it, even if they turned to hit another Lava Behemoth.

The Two-Winged Angel, who had been so arrogant earlier, was now like a scurrying rat, using his comrade as a human shield.

He had originally intended to boost his soldiers’ morale before the battle.

Who would have thought… that instead, one shot from someone else would shatter their morale?

However, they should be grateful that after Chen Yuxuan fired the first shot, her eyes felt uncomfortable, and her consciousness became somewhat blurry.

In a daze, after aiming the gun at the Lava Behemoth, she couldn't accurately aim for the next shot's weakness.

Finally, before her consciousness completely faded, Chen Yuxuan could only grit her teeth and fire the last shot.

Bang!

The gunshot rang out.

The Two-Winged Angel hiding behind immediately deployed the Angel’s Shield, blocking in front of the Lava Behemoth.

Under the sniper rifle’s attack, the Angel’s Shield once again shattered like a thin piece of paper.

However, this Angel’s Shield still absorbed a significant amount of damage for the Lava Behemoth.

After passing through the Angel’s Shield, although the sniper bullet still pierced the Lava Behemoth’s body, it ultimately failed to reach its heart or deliver the most fatal blow.

It… it survived…

At this moment, magma flowed all over the Lava Behemoth’s head, its heart pounding.

Fortunately… fortunately, it had stacked a large number of buffs, and the Angel’s Shield had also provided some initial defense.

Otherwise, with that one strike, it would have likely been instantly killed, just like the Two-Winged Angel before it.

“Whew…”

The Lava Behemoth exhaled, magma and heat flowing with its breath.

It thought that what it had just blocked was the same level of damage that the Two-Winged Angel had faced.

But it didn't know that this was merely the result of Chen Yuxuan casually hitting a level two weakness.

On the other side, as she pulled the trigger, Chen Yuxuan also lost all reason.

She thumped, falling headfirst onto the observation deck.

“Are… are you alright?” Li Siya asked, her eyes filled with confusion, as she stepped forward and patted Chen Yuxuan’s shoulder.

Unexpectedly, the girl suddenly lifted her head sharply, her eyes bloodshot, and opened her mouth to bite her.

This sudden turn of events startled Li Siya, causing her to stumble back a few steps and fall to the ground.

At this moment, another figure jumped down from the top tower, swiftly and cleanly killing the girl whose eyes were bloodshot and movements had become somewhat stiff.

“Are you alright?”

The person who jumped down was also a young girl, with short black hair, a tall figure, and dressed in a combat suit combining red and black.

She was heroic and spirited.

This girl was Li Ruoshu.

After Chen Yuxuan, who had lost her reason and turned into a zombie, was killed, she dissipated into specks of light and returned to the Adventurer’s Cabin to reload.

Li Ruoshu no longer paid attention to Li Siya’s reaction.

Her gaze swept over the sniper rifle, which was Chu Ruoxue transformed.

“There’s one bullet left.”

This large sniper rifle, despite its size, only contained three bullets.

Chen Yuxuan had already fired two.

This last one couldn’t be wasted.

“Little Lunatic, it’s your turn to enter the fray.”

Li Ruoshu picked up the large sniper rifle and directly threw it down towards the base of the castle.

“Ahhh…”

Falling from the observation deck, the sensation of weightlessness made Chu Ruoxue shriek.

“No…”

“This will break it.”

Firearms themselves have no defensive capabilities; falling from a high altitude, they would surely shatter upon impact with the ground, and Chu Ruoxue would instantly die along with it.

However, just as she was about to hit the ground, a gentle force, like a light breeze, softly lifted her.

This force came from Zhang Shiyu’s T-Virus: Ten Directions Telekinesis.

The range of the telekinesis was 100 meters, just enough to lift the falling Chu Ruoxue and, under the effect of the telekinesis, fly her onto the city wall.

“Is it finally my turn?”

Zhang Shiyu’s eyes turned completely black, filled with excitement and an indescribable thrill.

The sniper rifle quickly aimed at the injured Lava Behemoth in front.

While Chen Yuxuan still needed to aim for weaknesses, Zhang Shiyu didn’t need to at all.

Under the enhancement of the T-Virus: Ten Directions Telekinesis, the sniper rifle’s damage was directly increased by 30%.

With one shot, Zhang Shiyu fired without even looking.

Theoretically, this sniper rifle had a maximum of three bullets, and after firing all three, the rifle’s usage time would expire.

However, Zhang Shiyu’s T-Virus: Ten Directions Telekinesis also had an effect that increased the bullet capacity by 30%.

Thus, the original three bullets were extended to an additional one.

Immediately after, the telekinesis swiftly racked the bolt and loaded another round, firing another shot.

Two consecutive sniper bullets were fired, one after another, towards the injured Lava Behemoth.

Even though the Lava Behemoth remained cautious and kept its defenses up, its armor was still too fragile under the assault of two sniper bullets.
