Chapter 247 - Powerful Scout

“Old Feng, you’ve finally moved!” Upon hearing the sound of a submachine gun firing, Big Pineapple was full of joy.

However, his face froze soon after as he felt the armor on his chest tremble. He had been hit! The Light Armor Warrior and rebel army Wind Manipulator were also hit. They were all within the firing range of the submachine gun.

Ta, ta, ta...

The bullets of the submachine gun flew across the forest and tore off the branches and leaves of trees and plants. They also dealt constant damage to the three standing on the battlefield.

Before Big Pineapple could react, he was hit three times. The damage notification that flashed in front of him completely shocked him!

“F*ck. That’s a lot of damage!” Big Pineapple was shocked. He quickly raised the alloy shield in his hands and held it in front of him. The three bullets that hit him all exceeded 500 damage.

The damage caused by submachine guns and machine guns was similar. When used to attack players, they would experience a certain degree of damage reduction and could not deal full damage.

Big Pineapple’s talent was an S-grade defense talent. Added to that, the armor covering his chest had a decent defense coefficient of C-. So, the submachine gun attacks on his body should have experienced substantial damage reduction. Prior to this, even if the opponent were to use rare submachine guns with special bullets, none of them had ever exceeded 500 damage!

“Oh crap, we’ve encountered someone tough!” Big Pineapple shouted. He had realized that the person firing wasn’t Feng Luo. Even Feng Luo couldn’t deal such high damage.

As such, he quickly put the alloy shield in front of him, and at the same time, quickly retreated.

Big Pineapple was ok, thanks to his crazy defense. He had only lost over 1,000 HP with three shots. Compared to the total HP of over ten thousand for a Heavy Armor Warrior, it was nothing.

However, the other two were “seriously injured.”

The Light Armor Warrior was clearly one who chose the path of an attacker. That was why his defense was not high, so the damage value that appeared above his head were all in the thousands. With just a few shots, he had lost four to five thousand HP, which scared him into crouching and lying on the ground and immediately rolling towards a bush.

The rebel army Wind Manipulator was in a slightly better position since he had already cast an energy shield on himself, so the first two shots did not make him lose HP. However, the newly cast energy shield was destroyed in just two shots. The immediate shot that followed hit him firmly on his energy robe.

He had suffered magnificent damage that exceeded 2,000. This was almost a damage that could only be reached by a sniper rifle.

The scar-faced rebel army manipulator’s initially calm and collected expression showed slight panic for the first time since being “surrounded” by Big Pineapple and the Light Armor Warrior.

He hastily pointed the staff in his hand towards a direction, and a light green wind blade immediately flew towards the source of the bullet.

Whoosh!

The wind blade produced a crackling noise in the air. Clearly, it was very powerful.

However, what happened immediately after that completely shocked everyone at the scene.

Pang!

A single bullet flew across the battlefield in the aftermath of the submachine gun’s flurry of attack and directly hit the light green wind blade in midair.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“A bullet just stopped the skill!? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?” Big Pineapple’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Is it possible to dissipate a manipulator’s skill after he had cast it?

Theoretically speaking, it was. Energy attacks were based on specific energy structures which formed the different states of the attack. If one could destroy the structure, then naturally, one could disrupt the skill. As such, when executed well, one could use a long-range attack to disrupt some of the condensing skills of manipulators. However, that was meant for those large-scale condensation skills. In battle, it was practically impossible to disrupt basic skills like wind blades or ice arrows. Manipulators’ wind blades, fireballs, and ice arrow types basic skills flew at high speeds. They weren’t any slower than bullets. That was why it should have been impossible to destroy a wind blade with a bullet in midair.

None of the players at the current stage would dare to say that they could do it. Even Elite Grade NPCs also couldn’t do it.

When the rebel army Wind Manipulator with the scarred face saw that his wind blade was destroyed in midair by a bullet, his expression finally changed completely. Without hesitating, he turned around, used a wind movement speed boosting skill on himself, and ran towards the forest. He did not even bother to pick up the supply box, which was not far away from him at all.

However, no matter how fast he was, how could he be faster than a bullet?

A red Fatal Damage floated above his head. The rebel army Wind Manipulator dropped to the ground.

“F*ck, Old Feng, if you don’t come out now, I’ll be dead soon!” Big Pineapple called.

This damage was not scientific at all. Even with his shield, Big Pineapple wasn’t confident that he would be able to tank the opponent’s attacks!

“Come out? Does that mean that there’s someone else? Let me think... It’s examinee number 99, right?” Feng Luo said,

However, what surprised everyone was that, at that moment, an unexpectedly cold voice came from the location of the shot. “Examinee number 99?”

Upon hearing that, Big Pineapple was dumbfounded, as was the Light Armor Warrior. His had been preparing to flee after applying the blood tonic on himself, but he stopped.

Their opponent did not continue shooting; instead, he walked out from a spot that they did not even see. The main reason why everyone stopped was because of what the person then said.

“Number 105, your performance was terrible! You did not know where your teammate was and your loud shouting exposed their existence.”

A male Scout holding a submachine gun in each hand with a cold expression walked out. Clearly, he was not a player, and he was an Asian-looking NPC.

Then, his expression just as cold, he turned to the Light Armor Warrior holding the alloy sword and said, “Number 74... your reaction speed isn’t slow, but do you really think that I can’t hit you if you’re lying there on the ground? You haven’t even determined my position. This type of hiding method just makes you a sitting duck!”

“As for number 99!”

Then, the male Scout NPC turned his head around and with a cold laugh said, “No wonder you’re the number one seed in this examination, your performance was a little better than these two. However, did you really know the strength of the opponent? To fight against me using a submachine gun or a short-ranged weapon with that amateurish melee combat strength of yours, there’s no way for you to win! If you were to widen the distance and fight me as a Sniper, then perhaps you would have a one in a hundred chance to defeat me.”

“Sir instructor?”

Feng Luo appeared from behind a tree while looking at the cold-faced Scout, aiming the submachine gun dropped by the earlier Scout player at the male Scout NPC.
