Chapter 116: Death and Assassination
Rost and Andrew really understand what it means to have a big ups and downs and what it means to be unexpected.
When Victor's changing cheetah accelerated to the edge of "Xiao Lan" and firmly hugged the target at the moment when it was about to roll over from the tree trunk, Rost and Andrew directly stopped their original wild running steps and let out a relaxed breath.
After chasing for so long, I finally caught a live ......
Being pounced on by a cheetah in that way will be very tragic even if the prey is still strong, the sharp four claws are no joke, and if necessary, the more powerful teeth will definitely let the target know what bite force is!
But when they saw the target held by the black cheetah being blown to pieces by a powerful sniper bullet, the smile on their faces could be said to have frozen into ice in an instant.
The death of the prey is nothing, the speed and power of this bullet are very familiar to them, it is definitely from the sniper Carlos in the team, this own person is completely reasonable to mend the knife at this time, but this accurate sniper shot smashed the "Xiao Lan" they were chasing into pieces with his head and body, and then hit Victor behind him fiercely!
If the druid is in the form of a giant bear with rough skin and thick flesh at the moment, the bullet that has broken a person will not be fatal as long as it does not hit the heart and eye socket, and the risk of being shot in the head is not too high, you must know that the head is the hardest part of the body, and the perfect arc has a high chance of causing the bullet to slide away. This is also the reason why the most sophisticated gunslingers usually don't aim at the small and lethal position of the head, and the strength of the bones of the Giant Bear is even higher than that of the Superalloy......
However, at this moment, he is not a giant bear in the form of a heavy tank, but a cheetah who wants to catch up with the enemy as quickly as possible in the shortest time possible.
While gaining a high degree of agility and mobility, the light cheetah inevitably has only some poor defenses, although it is still enough to withstand the fire of ordinary pistols, but it is impossible to resist Gauss sniper rifles powerful enough to penetrate the armor of tactical tanks.
Destroying half of Xiao Lan's body into pieces, the bullet still carrying amazing power drilled into the eyes of the cheetah with that deadly death spiral in a ten-thousandth of a second!
Victor gained a very wonderful feeling at this moment. His mind was stretched almost infinitely by the premonition of fatal death, and he clearly saw the needle-like bullet that tore apart the body he held in his arms approaching the center of his brow little by little in the frozen time, until his eyes saw a strange image that could not be combined in his brain. It's like seeing yourself in the eyes.
And knowing the result, he couldn't dodge it anyway, and the feeling of not even being able to do a little movement made him feel so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit, but he couldn't even vomit, and then in an instant, when he finally lost his ability to think, he actually miraculously felt a trace of relief-
(Is this what death feels like?) It's boring...... )
But Victor was "relieved". Rost and Andrew were not at all quiet when they saw a cheetah with its head blown open by the kinetic energy left by the bullet, rolled heavily on the ground a few times, and then reverted to a headless corpse in a strange change that could not be explained by science.
But when Andrew was stunned by this mutation, the black knight suddenly woke up and turned his eyes away from the headless corpse on the ground, and at the moment he turned around, he let out a thunderous roar at the same time.
"Beware of sneak attacks!"
It was already obvious that Victor's sudden death seemed to be just an accident, but how accurate could the accident be? Accurate enough for him to be killed at the same time by a single shot fired at the enemy when he provoked it?
When the unexpected comes too unexpectedly, then it is no longer an accident, but an inevitability caused by a certain reason.
Take the initiative to sneak attack, take the initiative to escape. He took the initiative to be caught up, took the initiative to avoid a fireball while getting injured, took the initiative to come to the fallen tree trunk because he was unable to escape, and took the initiative to turn over the tree at the time when he could be pounced on by Victor......
Once a few things that didn't seem unusual before were strung together, Rost could be said to be shocked to realize that the three of them were not so much chasing prey. It's better to say that it is the "prey" that is being chased and walks with its nose hanging!
This may seem like a conspiracy theory, but if it's true, then everything before that was actually just a hoax?
And if that's the case, it's impossible for a sufficiently clever prey to use itself as a "bait".
When Rost saw the half-shattered corpse of "Xiao Lan" again with the unique soul vision of the undead, he finally confirmed his extremely frightening guess.
The prey, which had the breath of complete life when it was chasing before, was actually lifeless after death. And the corpses are fading away like shadows......
This is definitely not the Xiao Lan who attacked them at the beginning, that guy's body has escaped at some point, and the three of them have been chasing them until now all the time are just a clone thing!
And since the main body is not dead, and there is the wisdom that can lay down this kind of killing game, could he stand by and watch when the two of them are not only relaxed but also attracted by Victor's death?
Rost himself had shown his instinct to intercept a surprise attack in previous engagements, but Andrew, the Warlock, who usually kept a safe distance, didn't have that ability, so he ...... If that guy is really here, then he will definitely attack Andrew, who is more than fifty meters away from him!
After thinking about this series of questions in an instant, the black knight who finally reacted let out that loud roar without the slightest hesitation.
Fifty meters away is beyond the reach of the whip, and the range of action of the Death Grip is only twenty meters. His sprint speed is not slow, but if he is sneak attacked, even a second will be a fraction of a second!
His hint is very useful, even if it comes a little late, but it is better to be late no matter what.
The speed of sound propagation in the air is only more than 300 meters, and the time it takes to travel a distance of 50 meters is already fatal enough in a real battle, but due to the tacit cooperation in the past, Andrew reacted when he saw Rost's action of turning around and yelling-
Although I haven't heard what he said yet, there is definitely something wrong with making this man look at him so nervously, and it is himself who has the problem. Other words...... There is danger!
The eye sees an action image, and the pattern information on the retina is transmitted to the brain, and the brain makes a judgment about the event. And the body as an effector responds to the action, and when this series of procedures is over, Andrew, who has been forcibly promoted to the best state at this moment, only has time to release an instantaneous spell that should be useful at this time with his instinct.
And then the moment. He felt a burst of incomparably cold killing intent like an ice blade and a burst of incomparably scorching heat that burst out from behind him, and the huge contrast between ice and fire made him instantly shocked, and at the same time, he was glad that his instinctive choice was so correct-
"Boom" exploded like a roar, and a sharp object tore through the air at this moment, bringing a roaring wave of real air into Andrew's back violently, tearing the skin, cutting the muscles, crushing the bones, piercing his entire chest and stabbing out in front of him!
Succeed!
At the moment when Carlos's sniper shot smashed his mirror image and Victor to pieces, Xiao Lan, who quietly moved above the warlock, fell silently from above in the gap between the two of them falling into shock due to the sudden upheaval, and made a fatal blow with a ghost claw that was no longer weird in the physical state, but was still extremely sharp.
Compared to the unexpected frustration of the "detailed attack" last moment, this is an assassination in the true sense, and it will not reveal any qi or power that may be discovered before sending out a must-hit attack, and once the attack is launched, it will definitely be able to achieve the goal at one time!
Pierce the target with claws that tear through the sound barrier. and then ignited the flames of sacrifice that exploded inside the piercing body......
Not to mention a ** fragile spellcaster, even a warrior who eats on ** will completely lose his combat effectiveness when he receives such a blow!
But after making such a perfect blow and hitting it completely, Xiao Lan's face, which still maintained its demon form, showed an abnormal expression that could be regarded as shock.
(The touch of this ** is not right...... )
In addition to the abnormal perception from the ghost claws, Xiao Lan also clearly noticed a burst of stabbing the back of his head in an instant. A premonition of death that is incomparably familiar but hasn't been encountered in a long time!
In this kind of situation, one hesitation could be fatal, Xiao Lan did not hesitate to follow the guidance of intuition, and very simply threw out the body hanging on his claws that could have been deprived of soul fragments by soul absorption, and at the same time, he accelerated away from the "body" that he judged to be extremely dangerous.
The facts that followed immediately proved how correct his choice was.
After the body pierced by the sharp claws was vigorously shaken off by Xiao Lan, it immediately changed its shape in a spiral twist like the fusion of ink and water, and what appeared in that place was a body as fiery as magma. With a pair of long pointed horns, an equally slender pair of ears, hoove-like lower limbs, and a hook-like tail, this thing ...... The imp of the contract demon?
I don't know how a big living person suddenly became such a little ghost, but at this time, the condition of this little ghost is definitely very bad, in the rapidly reversing Xiao Lan's energy vision, this little monster who ate a fatal claw in his chest can no longer control a lot of concentrated flame energy in his body-
Once it explodes, the power will definitely not be worse than the refueling rocket artillery that Xiao Lan put before, is this the source of the crisis?
There is no need to doubt it, 0.1 seconds after Xiao Lan's thought appeared, the high-temperature flames and scorching shock waves swept through everything around-
A huge fireball that enveloped the surrounding area for more than ten meters exploded out of thin air!
