The two scouts stood twenty or thirty meters away from Ophelia.

The two sides looked at each other.

"What about another guy?"

In response to her questioning, Marcelo, wearing a black cloth hat, showed a slightly obscene smile.

"He wanders out of sight."

"So, dear miss, why break the tacit understanding between us?"

"The glowing currency in your hand, and the bulging money bag, are sending us a signal."

As he spoke, he drew the long dagger from his waist.

Marisol, the "non-mainstream" female scout standing next to this guy, also licked her lips.

"Marcello, stop talking nonsense!"

"Her purse looks like it's more generous than the commission."

"Did you just see that?"

"That money bag is full of dark gold coins!"

Compared to Marcelo's obscenity, Marisol's eyes were all greed.

She reached for the short spines on either side of her lower back.

With so much money, who cares about what bullshit entrusts.

Wouldn't it be easier to directly rob the half-elf lady in front of you?

As for their companions, they entered a state of stealth, quietly looking for an opportunity to sneak attack.

Facing the two of them who made no secret of their intentions, Ophelia looked indifferent, and put away the money bag with her backhand.

Then, he began to slowly pace backwards.

Marisol and Marcelo looked at each other, and they slightly distanced themselves a few meters away, heading forward.

At the same time, the halfling stalker slowly circled Ophelia's rear from the side.

The two sides are advancing and retreating, and the pace is getting faster and faster, and it is getting more and more urgent.

It wasn't long before the two guys were at the intersection of multiple red circles.

Chen Xuan, who was hiding on the commanding heights, naturally saw this scene through the magnification mirror of the sniper rifle.

He immediately pressed several radio detonators one after the other!

The M57 pulse igniter in the mine spewed out an electric spark.

Several explosions of fire and smoke rose into the sky.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Not so violent, explosions rang out one after another.

Unlike traditional TNT explosives.

Because of its advantages of easy carrying, high stability, good plasticity, high explosive power and excellent waterproofness, C4 is enough to be competent for detonation tasks in most environments.

Chen Xuan had already turned on his super-sensory vision, staring at the explosion scene through the magnification mirror.

With a 0.7x slowdown, coupled with a zoom in his field of view, he could even see the trajectory of the balls flying out from both sides.

Multiple M18A1 Broadsword mines fired thousands of lethal steel balls into the sector.

Hidden in the flames and smoke of the explosion, they were so fast that they rained down on the designated area.

Marcelo and Marysol, who were in the mine-laid area, were taken aback.

A magical shield emerged from each of them, like an umbrella fluttering in a raging storm.

Unfortunately, the steel balls were so dense that the light curtain-like shield appeared in an instant and dissipated in the same short time.

The follow-up lethal steel ball hit the two of them, quickly consuming their body protection magic!

Countless steel balls flew in all directions, and one of the hit walls seemed to be swept by a rake, and it directly became pitted, and the blackened wood in the ruins was also shattered by the sweep of the steel balls.

In a matter of seconds, the ambush was in shambles!

The black-cloth-hat scout Marcelo's magic was drained as he fled, and one of the splattered steel balls grazed his shoulder, leaving a gaping trail of blood.

Marisol, the "non-mainstream" female scout, is in slightly better condition than Marcelo, with about one-fifth of the magic essence left in her body.

With just a face-to-face effort, the two bronze-level senior scouts lost their combat effectiveness.

I thought it was a hunting feast, but I didn't expect them to be the prey that was calculated!

Ophelia dodged behind the walls of the ruins long after the first mine exploded.

The sneaky halfling stalker was startled at the first sight of the explosion and nearly ran away.

However, when he saw Ophelia, who was hiding behind the wall with her back to him, she couldn't stand the test of the money bag after all, and tried to take advantage of the opportunity to attack and kill, first grab the money bag, and then use stealth to escape.

His body is extremely weak, and only fluctuates when moving quickly.

When the explosions stopped one after another, this guy no longer hesitated, and encouraged the magic element to run wildly.

The surging magic essence made his form more obvious.

When he was still three or four meters away from Ophelia, a 7.62 mm warhead with a muzzle velocity of 860 meters per second and a muzzle kinetic energy of 3567 joules hit him in the head!

The magic light shield of the talisman disappeared in an instant, and the kinetic energy of the warhead weakened, hitting the halfling's head fiercely, consuming one-third of the magic essence in this guy's body in an instant.

You must know that the total amount of magic essence in the same level of halflings is not much.

Although the magic element resisted the damage for him, the impact of the warhead still made this guy fly.

At this time, Ophelia had already drawn her longbow, and after receiving the warning, she suddenly turned around and shot several arrows in succession, the first few arrows were all wearing down the halfling's magic defense.

The last few arrows plunged into the guy's calves and arms.

After depleting the magic element, his stealth effect is automatically removed, and he is lying on the ground vomiting blood.

Rebecca appeared from the other direction with a dagger in her hand and directly controlled the halfling.

The Dora sisters were not idle, and they sprang into action as soon as the explosion began.

Like a dead mouse, he blocked in front of the temporary hiding place of the other two scouts.

Wielding a single knife in his hand, he first shaved off both of the arms of the black-hatted scout.

Blood spurted all over the ground, and the severed stubble turned pink.

Marisol, who still had the strength to resist, unleashed her magic skills and threw a short spur, then turned and ran.

Don't even look at Marcelo, who was wailing and spurting blood.

The short thorn in his hand was attached to the pure white magic element, like a poisonous snake, and flew towards Yucca's chest.

There is something else to this short thorn.

The anxious Beria took the first step to slash the sword.

After the two collided, the short thorn split in two from the front end and flew away again, and the magic element attached to the surface suddenly bloomed, giving the short thorn a second acceleration force, and the trajectory changed and shot towards her faster.

Yucca's pupils shrank, and she swept away the first short thorn with her knife.

Another short thorn shot at her heart from a more tricky angle!

"Bell!"

There is no expected piercing sound, and there is no magic shield or magic shield triggered.

The short spine, after penetrating the thin first layer of Kevlar fiber, pierced the GA8 bulletproof chest plate within.

The waterproof fabric on the surface of the bulletproof plate is torn apart, then the polyurea coating is applied, and finally the thickened composite steel plate body.

This bulletproof chest plate is made of steel, although it is not as light as a ceramic bulletproof plate, but it has better defense, and can reach a level that M2 armor-piercing bullets cannot penetrate, and is often used for targets at shooting ranges.

Its technical process is very simple, and it can be summed up as stupid.

The spikes thrown by the magic end up leaving only a peanut-sized depression on it that is no more than 1.5 mm deep.

The short spines hung decadently on the Kevlar fiber, and it looked like it was "downcast".

"Hah!"

Yucca shouted and pulled out the thorn.

A crazy smile appeared on the faces of the two sisters.

He ran after Marisol, who had just escaped.

It didn't take much effort on the part of the two sisters for Marisol, who was fleeing, to be sniped.

The SSG69 sniper rifle opened fire again, the bullet coming at her in anticipation of a distance of several hundred meters.

At the moment, Marisol's adrenaline is being produced in large quantities.

The sensitivity of the body's perception has also been raised to an extremely high level.

Even when the bullet came out of its disembowel and shot at her, there was a warning in my heart.

After refining the magic element, the body subconsciously made a dodge action.

It's a pity that she is not like Chen Xuan's dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, and she lacks the assistance of spiritual power.

This made her dodge look a little clumsy.

"Bang!"

The bullet comes first, and the sound comes later.

When Chen Xuan's shoulder against the butt of the gun trembled because of the recoil.

The bullet had already hit Marisol.

It was only because of her dodging action that the bullet that was originally fired at the point hit her right arm.

The few remaining magic elements could no longer effectively protect the body, and they were completely annihilated in an instant.

The 7.62mm warhead struck her elbow with the remaining kinetic energy.

The skin tempered by the bronze-level magic element is comparable to raw cowhide, but this bit of defense is meaningless in front of the warhead.

The bullet penetrated the skin, tore the brachioradialis muscle and biceps tendon successively, shattered the bones of the brachioradial joint, and stuck directly in the arm.

Blood erupted in an instant, like a blooming flower.

Marisol's speed slowed down dramatically when she ran out of magic, but she didn't dare to stop, wailing and screaming as she dragged her injured arm to escape, and in this case, she was quickly overtaken by the Dora sisters.

Neither Yucca nor Beria were virgins, and they showed no mercy to their enemies.

After catching up with this guy, the two sisters raised their knives and fell, one leaned down to cut off his leg, and the other slashed his arm with his shoulder.

In the blink of an eye, Marysol lost the ability to resist.

When an artery in a limb is wounded, the blood that spurts out is like a bubbling stream.

However, the amount of blood loss was slowly reduced under the self-healing effect of the strong body.

From the notch of the severed limb, it can be seen that after cultivating the magic element, the density of muscles and bones will increase.

Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, pulled the bolt, and stood up.

He had already summed up his skills for dealing with Naroa Demon Cultivators.

First of all, magic is a consumable.

It can be used to activate magic skills, attach to increase the lethality of attacks, and mobilize limbs to strengthen strength and reflexes.

Whenever the magic is depleted, the additional enhancement effect will disappear, but the tempered physique will remain.

In addition, when a Demon Element cultivator is directly attacked, the Demon Element in the body will protect the body on its own.

They consume depending on the density and intensity of the attack.

Under normal circumstances, when the magic essence in the body is exhausted, it only needs to enter the cultivation state and maintain it for a certain period of time to recover.

The magic shield is similar to the same thing, resisting kinetic damage to a certain extent and then overloading and collapsing.

Those magic jewels can basically only withstand a full load of attacks, and then they will shatter.

If the attack strength is weak, then it can be reused by charging the core.

But every time you take a hit, you get damaged.

For example, the [Azure Guardian] necklace worn by Chen Xuan appeared a small crack after blocking two bullets for him in the KK Park.

The best way to quickly kill a Demon Essence Cultivator is to use a high-density low-to-medium power attack to quickly wear down the opponent's magic shield and body protection essence.

Or through violent explosions and other forms of attack.

The whole process was called "breaking the defense" by Chen Xuan.

As long as the defense is successfully broken, the remaining problems will be solved.

To sum it up by the enemies he has fought so far.

The Bronze Adventurer's Body Protector can probably resist 25~80 rounds of small and medium-caliber ammunition for continuous fire.

This does not include those ethnic groups that Chen Xuan has not yet come into contact with.

It's still the same old question, the cultivation performance between races and races is really different.

There is at least a 3~4 times innate gap between bronze-level halflings and bronze-level orcs.

Needless to say, those who are taller and stronger than the orcs.

However, correspondingly, the stronger the race, the slower the cultivation speed.

When the body is large, it can hold more magic elements, but it also takes more time to complete the physical refinement and accumulation of magic elements.

In addition, the fertility of those powerful ethnic groups is very touching, and they belong to the kind that cannot hold back a child for decades.

Even if it is born, there is still a growth period of forty or fifty years.

Of course, these ethnic groups also have long lifespans.

All in all, Naroa is a well-balanced, multi-ethnic world.

There will be losses and gains, and there will be long and short.

It is precisely because of the innate gap that most halflings would rather go to farming than become mercenaries and adventurers.

As for those individual cases, there is no need to discuss, there are many strange things about each ethnic group.

Chen Xuan walked quickly towards the half-dead captives, thinking about the matter of guns against supernatural power.

In fact, his ideas are very contradictory.

When he used his firearms to attack those Demon Element cultivators, he wished that the weaker the protective power attached to the Demon Element, the better.

It's best to use a single shot to pierce the Bronze Element's Body Protector.

But when Chen Xuan substituted himself and planned to be invincible in the Blue Star with his extraordinary strength, he also expected the magic element to withstand higher damage.

Man is such a contradictory creature.

Sometimes it is even so contradictory that it abandons reason and objective facts, just to grasp the small pleasure that is not real.

Shaking his head, he trotted behind a ruin.

Most of the city block is burned to the ground.

The ruins formed a black labyrinth, and the loud movement was no longer clear after half a block.

Especially those broadsword mines, the momentum is not as big as imagined.

The sound decibel decreases exponentially as the diffusion range increases.

In fact, the explosion of small-caliber shells and grenades is not much louder than that of two-kick firecrackers.

But for the sake of insurance, Chen Xuan also had to hurry up and interrogate.

The group hid in the ruins of a house that was still in good condition.

The three badly wounded scouts were all gathered together and awaited his torture.

Scorched ground flowed with viscous blood.

Chen Xuan picked up the collar of the halfling man, his limbs were full of arrows, and the magic essence in his body was empty, and he was already powerless to resist.

Judging from the appearance alone, this guy should be the most spineless.

"Who sent you to follow you?"

"Tell the truth."

"There's no need to carry it for someone who has nothing to do with it."

"After all, it was that guy who led you to the miserable situation you are in."

Chen Xuan's tone was calm, and his eyes under the tactical goggles could not be seen clearly, and they seemed even more unfathomable.

……

If nothing else, there should be another chapter in the evening.

Please leave a message to catch insects, thank you.
