Chapter 8 Under the Scorpion Swarm at Night
It was the first time Su had encountered such an enemy. In the past, Su had seen many powerful people, and after joining the Dark Dragoon, strong people abounded. But it was the first time he had seen someone who could suppress Su so thoroughly in the wilderness and sniping. Traditional sniping and counter-sniping methods seem to be completely ineffective against this opponent.
This is an opponent with great athleticism, good concealment skills, and plenty of patience. The moment he fired, Sue could still lock onto him, even if it was only for a short moment. But the real problem that Sue couldn't solve was how he found himself.
This question is important because concealment is by far the most important means of saving Su's life and killing the enemy. If it's just a head-to-head duel, maybe a guy from a fifth-order fighting domain or a spell-like domain can kill Su.
Su quickly recalled all known detection methods, but found nothing. His stealth skills and control over his body can perfectly deal with them, but certainly not these.
Sue decided to think about it in a different way. He thought as he cautiously began to move. A large number of jΓΉ were sent to all parts of his body, and his body shape changed, mainly because the joint extension angle of his limbs expanded almost strangely, and Su at this moment was more like an insect crawling on the ground.
At this time, several gunshots rang out in succession. Three fighters on Su's side opened fire at almost the same moment, and the bullets passed through the last ordinary sniper of the Blue Scorpion from different angles. However, at this moment, the sniper, who had been hidden in the darkness, also fired, and with just one shot, a fountain of blood exploded on the top of a mountain range, and the soldier did not even have a chance to scream.
The position of the Blue Scorpion Sniper was still at the top of the original hill, and he didn't change places much from beginning to end. Maybe it was a demonstration, maybe it was arrogance, maybe it was just an attempt to provoke Sue. Whatever the reason, he didn't change the sniper position at all, but fired another shot directly on the spot, sending another fighter to hell.
Almost as soon as Sue emerged from the ridge, the muzzle of his gun turned and took aim at this side. Then there were three shots in a row, one shot forced Su back again, and the other two shots swept by a few meters to the left and right, and if Su moved his head to the side, he might be hit. Fortunately, Sue simply stepped back.
Bang! The blue scorpion's gunshot with a crisp screech was completely different from the style of the Dark Dragoon. Judging from the direction from which the gunshots came, he was still stuck in the same position!
The screams of the fighters did not affect Sue's mood, and similarly, the arrogance of the blue scorpion sniper did not provoke Sue's anger. It suddenly occurred to him that in this position, in this mountainous area close to the position of the party, he also had an advantage that the blue scorpion did not have: heavy artillery!
Su immediately opened the tactical board, connected the heavy gunner, and said briefly: "Azimuth coordinates 1592,735, ten rounds of rapid coverage shooting!" "After repeating the order, the heavy artillery non-commissioned officer in the rear cut off communications. He only shoots anyway, and earns 300 yuan for each shot, and of course the more he plays, the better. Except for Persephone herself, almost none of the males in her line, whether they were servants or low-level officers, had a favorable opinion of Sue. Except for a very few long-term visioners, everyone else wished that Su owed debts and went bankrupt completely.
It didn't take long for a faint sense of oppression to appear in the night sky, and almost all the creatures began to flee in all directions. Su leaned out from the ridge on the other side again, and as expected, the Blue Scorpion's sniper remained in its original position, and the muzzle of the gun moved accordingly, pointing at Sue's head.
This time, however, he did not fire, but raised his head and looked at the night sky with some confusion. He suddenly pulled the trigger and hastily shot at Su, and the whole person jumped up and rushed towards the back of the mountain at a speed that was almost not inferior to Su!
Open! Sue finally fired the first shot back.
The blue scorpion's sniper suddenly stopped his momentum, but turned to the side, and a fish leaped twenty meters! Sue's shot back missed. However, the blue scorpion sniper was not to avoid Su's shots, in the direction he originally rushed forward, there was a sudden earth-shattering explosion, and even Su, who was thousands of kilometers away, felt the vibration of the ground below him!
With just one shot, the power of the explosion covered the entire hilltop! The shock wave knocked the Blue Scorpion sniper dozens of meters away directly to the ground. Su didn't expect that the power of the Dark Dragoon's heavy artillery would be so great, and the entire top of the mound would be covered in gunsmoke and ash with one cannon, and what kind of scene would it be if ten cannons were covered by continuous fire? With the protection of the armored combat vehicles of the Blue Scorpion troops, if the heavy artillery shells fall within ten meters, then all the combat vehicles except the main combat vehicles will be completely destroyed. The main battle vehicle will be able to take one more shot.
Before the blue scorpion's sniper could get up from the ground, two more shells fell almost simultaneously, one of which landed closer than the first, and he was directly lifted dozens of meters high by the air flow of the explosion, thrown far down the hill, and then fell heavily to the ground like a rag bag.
Sue's rifle, which had been aimed and ready to fire, slowly lowered.
The ground was still trembling, and heavy artillery was constantly bombarding the tops of the hills, throwing dozens of tons of dirt into the sky. At this moment, the power of steel and flame is interpreted to the extreme!
In less than a minute, the coverage of ten rounds of heavy artillery fire was complete. But this short moment is incomparably long in the hearts of those soldiers who have not seen the power of heavy firearms in the new era. Even Su, who saw the hill that had been cut off by more than a meter after the shelling, was very speechless.
From the tactical board came the somewhat arrogant laughter of the heavy artillery non-commissioned officer: "Lieutenant, how is the effect of heavy artillery fire coverage?" β
Sue ignored the somewhat provocative inquiry, closed the tactical board, and walked down the hill towards the blue scorpion sniper who had fallen to the ground in the valley. In Su's eyes, this sniper, who doesn't know whether he is dead or alive, is the most difficult opponent so far, and the identity is just a subordinate heavy artillery non-commissioned officer, and even for Su Shuo, who joined the Dark Dragoon, he is not even an opponent at all.
The Blue Scorpion's sniper was lying on his back on the ground, his eyes staring at the night sky, gasping for air with difficulty. After such bombardment and falling, it is surprising that he is not dead. Thinking of his explosiveness and speed as he dodged the heavy artillery bombardment, Su had no doubt about the strength of his physical functions.
The sniper's left arm is gone, his knee down, and his eyes are beginning to lose a bit. His face was gray, except for a blue scorpion tattooed on his forehead. It wasn't until he saw Sue that his eyes regained their brightness.
The sniper raised his right hand with difficulty, pointed at Sue, and said intermittently, "You...... Your ......"
Su was a little surprised, this dying sniper had a rich expression, which was very different from the others. "You're not a puppet?" Sue asked tentatively.
Blood bubbles began to bubble up at the corners of the sniper's mouth, and strangely, these blood bubbles were bright red when they first came out, and slowly turned to blue-green, and the new blood bubbles were the same color. Of course, Su would not let go of such details, frowning slightly, the blue light in the depths of his pupils kept flickering, analyzing the changes in the sniper's blood composition from different frequency bands.
"How am I ...... Will it be a puppet? I...... It's the electorate! "Even though every word is very difficult to say, the pride on the sniper's face can be seen.
"Whose chosen people?" Sue asked patiently, trying to get something out of his mouth. He also removed the life-support injections from the medical kit and stabbed them into the side of the sniper's neck and injected them into his blood vessels.
With one shot, the sniper's spirit was noticeably much better. He looked up at the night sky, his eyes shining with a frenzied light, and said, "It's the apostle!" β¦β¦ Chosen people of the great apostles! β
"Apostle?" This was an answer that surprised Sue very much. However, thinking of the style of the blue scorpion and the means of controlling the spiritual feelings of the people, Su suspects that the so-called apostle does not exist at all, but through the guΓ² chip?? An image was created to control these warriors. From the observation of the Blue Scorpion's advance base, Su has found that those puppets are very rigorous and dull in their way of doing things. But it's a good idea to use religion to control the people, which has been around for thousands of years.
The sniper tried to choke Sue by the throat and said, "Yes...... Great Apostle! He prophesied your being, and He wants us to find you and offer it to Him! You...... You can't escape, and one day, you'll be caught and sacrificed to the altar of the apostles! We...... Will catch you, Sue! β
The last word made Su's body tremble slightly, and he could barely avoid the sniper's grasp!
How could the blue scorpion know his name?! Sue doesn't remember mentioning her name to the Blue Scorpion people on any occasion. Is there really an apostle who can be foreseen?
At the moment when Su's heart trembled, the sniper suddenly laughed and said, "I won't ...... Leave the secret to you, and the apostles are waiting for you! β
The temperature of the sniper's body suddenly rose sharply, and Su immediately became alert and took a step back. The sniper suddenly screamed, and a stream of blue-blue flames erupted from his mouth, and then flames came out of his nose and ears, and all the places on his body, on the ground, but everywhere stained with blood began to burn violently. The fire was so intense that in about a minute, the sniper burned to a charred corpse!
His uniforms and equipment were scorched in the fire, and if there were chips in his body, they would have been destroyed. Su didn't expect that his blood could be converted into such a violent fuel, this sniper is really human?
Su stood quietly for a few minutes before reaching into the ashes and taking out a copper name tag. Each Blue Scorpion warrior has a piece of this thing, and it can't be burned.
The name tag is not engraved with a number like other fighters, but a name, a real name: O'Sullivan. Morgan.
