Fatal Shot

Chapter 628: Metal Praying Mantis

“F*ck, it’s disgusting!”

“Don’t even bother with the Quasi-Boss Chip, even the Boss Chip was taken by an outsider. Did the leader consider everyone’s contributions this time? There’s hearsay that Feng Luo had some relations with Deputy President Zi Wei...”

Amongst the reactions of shock and admiration, there were also some strange voices.

“No more chit-chat from anyone, quickly prepare for battle! Our mission now is to intercept! You must quickly hinder the people from the Rebel Army and North City and allow these three items to be delivered to the warship and complete the mission!” a Heavy Armored Warrior with a golden shield frowned as he shouted and interrupted the two people.

The people with such thoughts were not limited to the Nine-Star Guild players that were told to stay behind and intercept. Some people in the group that were allocated to protect three people along with Zi Wei were also complaining.

Although the main goal of the Nine-Star Guild was to create equipment, the idea of getting the Boss Chip for themselves was a very attractive reward, especially when they knew from earlier that the chip manufacturing equipment was unable to produce Boss-Grade Chips. The equipment had a production restriction that caused it to be almost impossible to produce Quasi-Boss Chips in a short while, making many Storm City people have thoughts about owning this Boss-Chip.

This might be the first Boss-Grade Chip in the history of War, and it represented the “first Boss-Grade pet.” That probability attracted large groups of people as it entailed the chance to become one of the most elite star players.

“The first Boss-Grade pet in the history of War? And it is held by someone outside the guild!”

“The first Boss-Grade pet? Do you think that this chip would get that title?” However, after Jing Kong reprimanded these people with some resignation, they quickly shut up.

Jing Kong looked at 24K with eyes full of disbelief because it looked a little harmless in front of people while it lay on Feng Luo’s shoulder.

...

“Feng Luo? Never heard of that name before.”

“A Boss-Grade Chip? Quick, chase after the location marking!”

Compared to the thoughts of the players in the Nine-Star Guild, the thoughts from the people from the other two alliances were a lot simpler.

They only needed to kill their target. Even if it was a long-distance kill, they would be able to obtain all of the loot from the other party.

Facing such rules, the North City players were embarrassed before quickly recovering during this sudden chaos as their faces became a lot more agitated.

On the surface, their current capabilities were not able to win against the people from either Storm City or the Rebel Army. However, if it was only against an individual, they would have the capability to win.

As Sword Ki Long River and Ten Mile Tiger were both elite star players from North City, many knew that they were not easy to defeat.

In comparison, with an ID that was not as famous as the other two, and having the Boss-Grade Chip that most of the other players were more concerned with, Feng Luo naturally became the target.

Other than the SK Guild that placed its aim on the chip manufacturing equipment was targeting Sword Ki Long River instead.

Almost the majority of the players from both North City and the Rebel Army had placed their target on Feng Luo because he seemed to be the weakest target.

...

“Quick, everyone, don’t panic!”

“Intercept these creatures!” action

“D*mn, the creatures on this island are all strange!”

The time was 5:45 a.m., and there were only 15 minutes before daybreak.

At a location only two kilometers away from the shore, a group of Nine-Star Guild players was retreating frantically because there were several hundred Elite-Grade monsters right behind them.

The Metal Praying Mantis is a type of strange creature similar to normal praying mantises but their bodies are composed of more than 50% metal.

Not only was its speed super fast, but it was also able to withstand normal bullets by using the semi-metalized body to swallow a large amount of metal ore. With a pair of wings refracting metallic colors that were vibrating continuously at high frequencies, the Metal Praying Mantis was able to cut all of the vegetation and shrubs that it passed by.

“Yet another kind of monster without physical restraint. The monsters on this island are simply not friends with the laws of physics... ” A Nine-Star Guild Light Armor Warrior just slashed a Metal Praying Mantis, but the alloy sword he swung with full force did not cut the hard, metalized head of this Level-55 Commander-Grade monster. Instead, the attack only created the sounds of metal crashing together and sparks.

“Bang!”

“-4035!”

It was the Metal Praying Mantis with its sharp wings liken to blades that, when under high vibrations, immediately cut deeply into his neck. The attack caused his neck to continuously bleed and took away nearly one-third of his health points.

“Bang!”

“-14354!”

A piercing bullet was fired from behind the injured player. The bullet’s powerful destruction abilities went through the body of the Metal Praying Mantis. On impact, this Commander-Grade creature exploded and still had nearly 50% health points remaining.

“Bang!”

“-8000!”

Feng Luo finished off this Commander-Grade Metal Praying Mantis with one more shot. As he turned the muzzle of the Wings of Death and took another shot, the bullet exploded into another Elite-Grade Metal Praying Mantis into pieces. Before the attack, the monster had full health.

After killing off the two Metal Praying Mantises, both of Feng Luo’s pupils contracted because his vision shifted to see the destruction happening around him and the long-range attacks fired at him.

“Rumble, rumble...”

[“Notice: Current players with the core equipment: Sword Ki Long River, location... Ten Mile Tiger, location... Feng Luo, location...”]

At this moment, the new round of location reports in the system had rung to every player on each of the three teams.

Every time their location was exposed, the main three people, especially Feng Luo, would have a huge area around them suddenly be destroyed by huge amounts of long-range attacks in the following few seconds.

In this round of attacks, even the Nine-Star Guild Heavy-Armored Warriors that raised their shields and took medicine were swiftly damaged until they only had half of their health points as they hurriedly allowed the doctors to heal their life points.

However, Feng Luo, the seemingly weak Sniper player, was uninjured even when he had only his bare skin as protection from the attacks.

On the surface of this body, hundreds of Energy Beetles formed a tightly sealed energy shield that caused all of the long-range attacks to bounce off him.

If viewed from the sight of the Reconnaissance Beetle, the surface of these Energy Beetles also had a layer of phantom energy. This created a group phantom shield that was unable to be seen by the naked eye and was enough to protect him even if the energy shield was broken and would protect the weak Energy Beetles from being killed.

“Is this the capabilities of Boss-Grade pets?” The players of the Nine-Star Guild either had looks of admiration or envy on their faces.
