Chapter 271: Success

Chapter 271: Success

Although Feng Luo indeed could not make it in time to fire the second shot to save a life, he had not come alone!

Big Pineapple, being of a player of the Warrior profession, was faster than Feng Luo in short-distance movement speed after engaging Charge. Not to mention the opportunity to save a damsel in distress—Big Pineapple’s speed was even faster now than when he picked up prizes!

“Hey, trying to kill our teammate? Not if we have anything to say about it!”

Thus, the moment when the Hunter T-750 pulled the trigger once more, Big Pineapple, carrying an enormous reddish-black alloy shield in his hand, bellowing a foolhardy yell, had already charged fiercely in front of Phoenix. His shield heavily pounded against the ground.

Ping, ping, ping…!

All the bullets released by T-750 were blocked by the high-quality shield in Big Pineapple’s hand! The flying sparks from the friction between the bullets and the shield were clear in the dark night, but the effect only produced damage coefficients of less than 200 flashing above Big Pineapple’s head!

“This power, way too weak…”

Big Pineapple’s face had a cool, condescending smile, and the alloy shield plunged into the ground fiercely released a powerful wave of energy!

Boom!

The power accumulated by the “Charge Shield Smash” Rare skill on the run exploded, sending out a layer of dirt from the ground and skull-sized rocks to the side, mixing with the continuous flow of incoming bullets!

“This fool is really a little embarrassing…”

If Feng Luo were to have noticed Big Pineapple’s action, he probably would have cursed impatiently under his breath. But, at that moment, there was no spare time for him to bother, because after the second round of shots from the Hunter, the Barrett’s two-second firing interval was finally over!

Ping!

Taking advantage of the time, Feng Luo fired. The Barrett in his hand resounded with a low, muffled gunshot once more, and a faint blue energy armor-breaking bullet drew a swift streak through the darkness of the forest, marking its trajectory straight for the metallic arm of the Hunter holding its rifle!

Ka!

Since the Hunter wasn’t moving, the difficulty for this shot to be lethal was minimal—at least, it was for him!

The result of two continuous energy armor-breaking bullets hitting at the same spot—naturally the critical point of the metallic arm of this T-750—was that it was broken by the sniper rifle’s bullet. The assault rifle ceased to fire!

“Teammate? Y’all are…”

Just then, Phoenix, on the ground, reacted to Big Pineapple’s previous words. She did her best to hide a new sense of delight and shock after such a calamity. A moment before, she had indeed believed that she would die beneath the attack by the Hunter, as the “numb” effect had rendered her unable to effectively control her body to dodge the Hunter’s shots whatsoever. She had not expected that there would suddenly be someone to save her life!

That shot was indeed a little astounding; even though she had no control over her body, she had more or less determined from the sound that the person who’d fired it was at a distance of over 20 meters from her position. As such, the distance between the firing position and the Hunter was over 40 meters.

In such a dimly lit environment—moreover, an environment full of vegetation coverage and trees—to hit the arm of someone more than 40 meters away was not something that average Sniper players could do!

More importantly, if it was just one shot, perhaps the accuracy could have been due to the use of some skill or it could have been happenstance. But the opponent had fired two shots, and the Hunter had ceased fire. Clearly, this was not happenstance but true ability!

“Teammate, which investigator is this Sniper?” Phoenix said with a glance, already guessing in her mind.

Big Pineapple, at that moment, had already turned his head to flash Phoenix a slight “confident” smile. “Beautiful Lady Phoenix,” he said, “I am Number 105! Rest assured, you’re definitely safe under my protection. We’ve already slain two Hunters before. This Hunter was here only to give his life away…”

However, if he’d known that Phoenix’s attention was now placed on Feng Luo, he probably would have been depressed to death.

It was his own fault for placing his alloy shield in front of Phoenix to block the bullets, inadvertently blocking Phoenix’s view, as well. As a result, she hadn’t even seen the effect of his charging shield attack, nor his pretentiously manly actions.

However, Phoenix still played along and revealed an expression of surprise, her big, flirtatious eyes widening. “Number 105? You’re… Nohara Shinnosuke? Your defense is so high! You did not even lose HP after being attacked by a Hunter!”

Meanwhile, she was pondering inside: If this is the case, that Sniper must be either Number 37 or Number 99… The Snipers. Based on my feelings, the rate of Number 99 should be greater…

As for the name of “Nohara Shinnosuke,” it was the identity of the NPC that Big Pineapple had been disguised as before.

They had not revealed their true appearances and information while at Haruko’s place, and Haruko had never requested for them to do so. Thus, Phoenix was unable to directly determine his identity based on his appearance. But because Phoenix used her player identity, Feng Luo and Big Pineapple could recognize her at a glance. Of course, even if she had used an NPC to disguise her identity, her fabulous set of fiery-red feminine light armor alone would have been enough to discern her identity.

Just then, Feng Luo shouted from the side. “Stop chatting, the Hunter is not finished yet!”

Simultaneously, a ping sounded as Barrett in his hands fired once more at the Hunter!

However, this energy armor-breaking bullet did not achieve any effect, as it was blocked by the alloy shield in the Hunter’s hand with a pai sound! Although this Hunter had lost an alloy arm as well as its firearms, the alloy shield in its hand could still be used as a weapon, and its combat power was definitely still above that of normal players!

After Feng Luo had destroyed one of its alloy arms, he was now seen as a primary threat according to the program of this Hunter. The pair of red dots in its metallic eyes blinked as it held its heavy alloy shield in front of it and advanced toward Feng Luo, striding with heavy footsteps.

“I’ll help you!” Phoenix shouted.

She first applied a blood tonic on herself, then gripped the feminine alloy longsword at her side and leaped to her feet! She had 90 percent poison resistance in her equipment attributes, and by now, the numbing effect as a result of being poisoned had already vanished!

“No need. Your HP hasn’t recovered,” Feng Luo shouted between shots. “Hide to the side first, far from the battlefield! Big Pineapple, hold T-750 up.”

“Well then, okay…”

Phoenix took a look. Her HP had indeed not recovered much yet. After all, blood tonics required time. Furthermore, she also had the intention of observing Feng Luo and Big Pineapple’s combat abilities.

“Already slew two Hunters. Is this really something to brag about?”

To Feng Luo and Big Pineapple, facing off Hunters was considered their forte. This type of Elite robotic monster would, perhaps, be very difficult for one person to slay, as its energy control core was protected. To break its four limbs to make it choose to self-destruct its energy control core was no easy task.

But with two people cooperating, it was a multiplied effect! Heavy Armor Warriors had many skills, all enhanced with powerful strength and solo-control effect, able to hold up even against Hunters with powerful strength.

As for this Heavy Armor Warrior, Big Pineapple, he was probably the one and only player who could last for more than a minute when in close-combat with a Hunter.

One minute’s time was sufficient for the Barrett in Feng Luo’s hand to fire!

******

“Lady, stand back a little! This guy is going to self-destruct now!”

When Feng Luo made use of Big Pineapple’s containment and had destroyed all four alloy limbs of this Hunter within just 30 seconds, Big Pineapple ran over from behind holding onto his shield. At the same time, his big mouth loudly reminded Phoenix, who was standing to the side, watching the combat with a look of genuine shock.

“Self-destruct?” Phoenix looked doubtful but immediately stepped back a little more.

Boom!

A mass of bluish-white energy twisted to a 10-meter circumference, sending the weak and vulnerable vegetation cover and dirt flying. This marked the third T-750 slain by the two of them!
