The Ancient Genes

Chapter 702 - Axel Vs Oslen

Competition ground, Trinity.

Melan and Terry stood against each other. There was a silence between them. Terry obviously knew what was about to come. He was injured while Melan still was in a better condition than him.

On top of that, the difference in strength between the two could not be any more obvious. The two weren't a match at all.

But, Terry didn't plan to give up this easily.

"Whoosh!"

He once again pulled the string of his bow and shot a couple of arrows towards Melan.

Melan was very quick to react, and with a slight motion of his body, he easily dodged all the arrows. But, what he didn't expect was that Terry would use this opportunity to run away.

Melan didn't give him a chase, and instead turned around to head up the hill. But, as soon as he turned his back, two more arrows came shooting towards him.

"Crackle!"

Lightning shot out of Man's body and instantly knocked the arrows away. His eyes were now filled with rage, and he could see that Terry was barely holding onto his bow. And, yet he refused to go down and kept pestering him.

The moment he showed any intention of chasing him, he would turn around and run. And, if he decided to give up, the guy would once again shoot arrows towards him.

"Fine! You wanna die by my hands!" At last Melan snapped. He knew that it wasn't possible to get out of this situation without dealing with Terry first. He knew that it would waste his time, but he couldn't do anything about it.

'Crap!' Terry's eyes widened when he realized that Melan was heading straight towards him at the speed of light. And, this time, he didn't show any intentions of stopping. It was clear that he was determined to end it here.

Terry immediately decided to run as far as he could, he wanted to pull Melan away and buy Axel as much as time he could.

The chase began, and to be honest, Terry couldn't run much far away considering the difference in the speed of the two.

"Bang!"

A kick landed on his back, his figure immediately tilted below before crashing onto the ground and sliding ahead.

Terry tried to roll, and get back onto his feet to continue running, but Melan didn't allow him to do so. A thunder javelin immediately pierced his thigh, and he crashed onto the ground in pain.

"You really made me run, I will give you that.." Melan slowly walked up to Terry. And, his face didn't look good at all. It was as if someone had fed him some sh*t.

As soon as Melan entered the range of few inches from him, Terry immediately opened his mouth and shot something out. It was an arrow head which he had hidden in his mouth like last time.

But, his eyes immediately widened when Melan swiftly caught the thing in between his two fingers.

"Do you really think that the same trick is going to work twice?" Melan asked with a snort, and with a flick of his fingers, he sent the arrow head piercing towards Terry's forehead.

A white light immediately engulfed Terry and his figure disappeared leaving behind small white particles in the air.

"I hope Oslen dealt with the last guy.." Melan muttered under his breath, and then began to move uphill once again. But, the fact that they were still in the competition ground was proof that the enemy team still had a member alive.

…

Axel was moving at his fastest speed while having the invisible cloak draped over his body. He was praying that the rest of the guys could hold back, until he found himself in a suitable position to support them.

"Hmmn?"

When Axel reached the slightly flat and elevated terrain above, and decided that it was a suitable place to mount his weapon, he suddenly noticed a figure coming up to the place as well.

It was Oslen.

The guy was carefully moving as well. His eyes were scanning the place all around, his bow was already on his hand ready to strike.

"I know you are here," He spoke while carefully looking around.

Axel immediately frowned on that.

When he was wondering how the guy knew about his presence, he suddenly noticed that he had left footprints around. The rain had obviously softened the ground so even when Axel had tried to be light on his feet, it wasn't enough.

'That's my mistake.' He couldn't deny it.

Oslen let out his lightning armor, to increase his defense. He knew that just using a mana barrier wasn't enough. Axel's strange bullets had the ability to shatter them after all.

'He can't use his sniper rifle while hiding himself in that invisible cloak. And, I bet his hand gun won't be able to take me down in a couple of shots.' Oslen had already made his calculations. He even knew that Axel was not that good at close combat, and neither did he have strong defensive abilities.

As long as he could identify his position, the victory would be his.

'I need to do something fast. Terry and Eren wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.' Axel slowly tightened his grip on his handgun, and began to move.

"Click!"

"Bang!"

"Whoosh!"

In an instant Axle drew his gun and shot.

But, his eyes soon widened when he found an arrow lodged onto his shoulder. On the other hand, Oslen wasn't in much of a different condition. His eyes were wide open as he looked at the bullet wound on his shoulder.

Both of these guys had believed themselves to be the best with long ranged weapons. And, now for the first time, they were meeting someone who managed to catch their interest.

Unfortunately, Axel didn't have liberty to play around.

He immediately moved, his figure was already out in the open.

Oslen on the other hand, and immediately began to shoot out arrows after Axel while running parallelly to him.

Axel didn't back down, and began to rain down bullets at him as well.. And, the two engaged themselves in a bitter fight.
