Fatal Shot
chapter-274

If not for the damage coefficient emerging above this scarred beast warrior's head, Feng Luo might have suspected that this guy was actually a robotic warrior of a model even more advanced than the T-750. However, even if it was an unbeatable robot, he could not hold back at this point!

Ping, ping, ping…

In the forest, gunshots resounded once more! But this time, they were not the low, muffled gunshots of the Barrett but comparatively more crisp and continuous gunshot sounds.

A black, medium-sized handgun was held in Feng Luo's hand as it fired three bullets at the scarred beast warrior in quick succession! The "Hurricane" handgun had a super high rate of fire, able to consecutively fire four bullets in a second!

Furthermore, these three shots from Feng Luo were not aimed at the same spot. He was at a distance of over 20 meters from the scarred beast warrior. Thus, when shooting, he only needed to move his wrist slightly to be able to shoot any desired spot on the opponent. The angles of these three consecutive shots were very specific and precise—specifically, they were directed at the scarred beast warrior's right hand, right leg, and left eye. Plus, the gap in time between the three shots was super short!

Pa, pa, pa…

Following that were the sounds of the three consecutive bullets striking metal!

Even though the scarred beast warrior was only combatting Big Pineapple and Phoenix, his attention was as if also similarly placed on Feng Luo's gun muzzle. As Feng Luo fired, his huge, thick alloy shield produced a blur of motion as it moved and actually, unbelievably, blocked all three consecutive bullets!

"What the f*ck?!" Seeing this situation, Big Pineapple, who had been knocked back and had his eyes fixed on the scene, could not help but spout out a curse once again!

Meanwhile, although Feng Luo's expression was just as grave, he still did not stop shooting with the Hurricane in his hand!

Ping!

The fourth bullet blasted out the moment the trigger was pulled!

"Hm?" The scarred beast warrior's face showed a bit of surprise this time.

Because even though he had blocked out three shots, his shield moved upward a bit as a result. The fourth shot was aimed at his calf, rendering him unable to move down to block it! Clearly, this had been the real purpose of Feng Luo's three previous shots—the three previous shots were just to create the opportunity for the fourth!

Ping!

With this fourth shot, the scarred beast warrior's calf was unavoidably hit!

−506

A damage coefficient of over 500 finally appeared above the rebel beast warrior's head!

"Not bad, still!"

But with the bullet clearly hitting that body of his, with not much equipment, the damage was still not high. It only left a line of blood as a mark!

But what was unexpected was that at that moment, the "rebel beast warrior" who had displayed its powerful prowess suddenly put down the shield in his hand and said flatly, "All right! Everyone, stop!"

"What? Stop? Why would we stop when you say stop?"

At practically the same moment, there was a tender shout with a bit of rage, and a fiery-red alloy longsword already appeared before him once more. Phoenix, who had just been kicked in the stomach, had already regained momentum. Her longsword was pointing out once again, covered in a layer of a faint red glow! Clearly, this must have been some unique Rare skill! Also, it could be deduced by her words that she was holding a grudge.

Facing her sword and this unknown skill, the scarred beast warrior only said calmly, "I called for a halt because you're not my match at all!"

Boom!

Thunder Move!

With a violent wave of his left hand, his spiked alloy shield swung violently toward Phoenix's alloy sword. The alloy shield, with a weight of definitely more than 100 kilograms, was wielded in his hand as effortlessly as if it were a stiletto.

Tch!

The red, glowing longsword and the spiked shield clashed together, creation an eruption of sparks! After which, the shield's crushing power sent the longsword flying, then crashing into Phoenix's red armor with even stronger force! However, when the spikes on the shield came into contact with Phoenix, it brushed past at an angle, only knocking her flying once again!

Smack!

−2540

Phoenix was once again sent flying backward into a pile of brush, and her flying alloy sword fell to the ground far away!

−1053

But similarly, a damage coefficient of over 1000 flashed above the middle-aged, scarred beast warrior's head. There were also clear scratches on the spiked shield!

"Hm?" The eyes of the scarred beast warrior revealed slight surprise at this. But he regained his composure in a flash, then said something quite unexpected by the three. "Stop, I'm your investigation mission instructor!"

"What?"

Big Pineapple had already retrieved from his backpack a secret he'd kept up his sleeve: a special enhancement potion. He had injected it and was about to lunge forward violently with his reddish-black alloy shield once more. He wore a ferocious face due to the potion's effect, but he stopped in his steps, dumbfounded.

Feng Luo, who had initially already summoned a Suicide Bombeetle and a Spray Beetle through 24K, preparing to use the duo to destroy this Heavy Armor Warrior's unconquerable defense, similarly went stock-still. He was forced to stop his hand, which had been about to fire with the Hurricane handgun once more.

However, he did not completely halt in his actions. Behind a huge tree beside the battlefield where there was no light, there was already a Spray Beetle with a dirty green-colored shell and a long body crawling out from inside a black hole on the ground! The Level-37 Elite Bladed Beetle and the two Normal Beetles had already completed their task of surrounding the area too.

Phoenix had already stood back up with her brilliant armor stained with a great deal of dirt. Her charming but mocking eyes became a little cold as she said, "Instructor, what evidence do you have? How would you explain your rebel-like eyes?"

"You all can address me as Instructor Hunting Tiger. As for evidence, my ability is evidence!"

The middle-aged scarred beast warrior swept across him, his green-glowing eyes still very calm, not giving much of an explanation for his beast-like characteristics.

"Hunting Tiger, agent investigation instructor?"

Feng Luo recalled Nightingale's words from before; this Hunting Tiger must have been an agent codename. This person indeed must have been an agent instructor, and the ability he had shown just now certainly could be considered evidence of his identity. After all, if such powerful abilities belonged to a normal "player," then this mission would have been beyond unfair!

"If you're an instructor, why did you attack us just now?" Phoenix's face was still nice, but her line of sight silently swept to her alloy longsword that had fallen onto the ground!

He could have attacked the Bladed Beetle because he'd seen it as a monster, but since he had since learned their identities, the attack just now had definitely been on purpose!

And even if he was an instructor, it didn't necessarily mean that he was a friend!

Just like the Scout-profession instructor "Nightingale" from before, whom Feng Luo had harbored no suspicion towards; if he and Big Pineapple had wanted to take that supply box then, it was highly likely that Nightingale would have flipped on them!

The three agent departments had a competitive relationship in this mission. But as for the answer to Phoenix's question, Feng Luo actually already had a guess in his mind.

"Because the three people that those two killed were my team members!"

Sure enough, Hunting Tiger's one cold statement made the three of them tense up once more all of a sudden.
