Chapter 379 - Unexpected Change!
“Roar!”
A low but loud roar of anger pierced the air!
“Rumble!”
A can-like human figure donned with a full set of heavy black armor flew into the wall on the side of the street with a loud crash!
The effect of the Level 40 ultimate skill, Immovable Mountain, had just ended. So, the person, along with the shield, were both sent flying by the large and powerful right claw of the Tyrant!
After falling to the ground, the alloy shield with over 50% damage had a few more scratch marks.
The other parts of his heavy body armor were also damaged. His right shoulder plate and bracer were also distorted.
The only fortunate thing was that no one spot was completely damaged, so he could still fight.
“F*ck. My shield’s defense coefficient is C-grade; I spent a lot on it!”
Security Door cursed in his mind. After that, he turned around and got back on his feet before charging back towards the center of the battlefield, where the Level 45 Tyrant was currently surrounded by three other Heavy Armor Warriors.
“Bang!”
Standing over 30 meters from the battlefield, Feng Luo’s Eye of the Thunder let out another muffled shot. A D-grade Double Armor-piercing Round covered in sparkling electricity flew towards the Tyrant’s cruel and fierce head covered in blood!
His chest moved up and down slightly. On his SUV combat uniform were three parallel scratch marks as well as wounds that were created by sharp weapons.
Although Azure had already bandaged it and injected him with a blood coagulation potion, the blood that came gushing out dyed his combat uniform red!
Feng Luo was also injured by the Tyrant’s claw. If it weren’t for the SUV equipment set’s defense that was comparable light armor, as well as the bonus provided by his Evolution talent and the permanent Enhancement Potion, that made his HP 1.5 times more than the average gunner, he might have already died!
“Bang!”
“-234!”
“-1076!”
“-834!”
The Double Armor-piercing Round struck the face of the Level 45 Tyrant and shaved off a small chunk of meat off its face.
The dual damage of the Double Armor-piercing Round joined with the bonus damage from the Eye of the Thunder’s rare attribute trigger equaled a total damage of around 2,000?
Compared to the 4,000 to 5,000 damage that Feng Luo usually dished out, it was definitely incomparable!
The only thing was that the shot only dealt white normal damage, and Feng Luo only used the relatively cheaper D-grade Double Armor-piercing Round. The damage bonus and destructive coefficient were naturally not comparable to the extremely expensive C or B grade Shield-breaking Energy Bullet!
“How much HP left?”
Feng Luo shouted to ask Dan Hen while his gaze remained glued to the Tyrant’s movements.
It wasn’t that he could not hit the weak points of the target such as the eye or the brain; it was that he should not hit them!
It was because this Tyrant... No, to be precise, it should be called a “Mutant Tyrant!”
“Tyrant T-001 (Level 45 Commander Mutant; Evolving). HP: 80,000. Recovers 2% HP every second (Degree of injury affects recovery percentage)...”
Compared to the Level 45 Tyrant T-000 that they encountered back in Roguetown, this Tyrant was definitely a lot stronger!
Although the 80,000 HP was not as crazy as the 300,000 HP that the Giant Octopus Commander, the 2% HP recovery per second meant that as long as the battle lasted around one minute, its HP could be seen as being “doubled!”
As for the words “Mutant, Evolving,” the emphasis should be placed on the latter. This meant that compared to other Tyrants of the same level, this Commander Grade monster was a lot stronger!
It had been less than a minute since the Tyrant caught up to the group, and there were already four fresh corpses on the ground, among them were My World, Frozen Red Giant, as well as Skynet!
The two Light Armor Warriors in the team died because their light armor could not hold out against the continuous powerful attacks of the Tyrant’s two huge claws.
In comparison, My World’s only Fine Grade alloy longsword had no chance to cut into the incredibly tough skeleton that could block machine-gun bullets!
The largest contribution of the two of them was probably the deep wounds they left on the two legs of the Tyrant using their skills with high destruction coefficient, such as the Devastating Slash, before their death.
The wounds affected the Tyrant’s movement, and at the same time, it also allowed the other players to inflict weakness damage when they attack those wounds, which also meant decent bonus damage!
The only thing was, under the Tyrant’s amazing self-healing ability, the wound of the mutant Tyrant continued to heal rapidly. At that moment, the wounds on its two legs were already completely healed.
The only thing Feng Luo felt good about was probably that the powerful Level 45 Tyrant was very vengeful. It only attacked the players, so the three NPCs who retreated into the building beside him were completely safe!
However, it was also due to the Tyrant’s amazing “vengefulness” that Feng Luo found it hard to initiate attacks.
...
“Auuu!”
On the battlefield, the Tyrant, surrounded by four Heavy Armor Warriors, let out another angry roar!
“Boom!”
“-2050!”
Immediately after that, another human figure was thrown far away by its arms. A figure wearing heavy alloy armor flew across the street and landed on top of a hovercraft, crushing the top of the vehicle downward!
It was Steel Fortress. Although he was now equipped with the items Feng Luo provided, in general, his gears were still relatively average.
Prior to this, he survived through his defensive skills, but this time, when he landed on the ground, his HP was less than 5%, and he entered the “Heavy Injury” status!
“+2000, +150, +150, +150...”
The only Doctor remaining on the team, Azure, quickly shot a blood tonic towards him, making the green recovery numbers pop up on top of his head, rapidly increasing his HP to prevent him from dying due to the Heavy Injury and blood loss!
Her face was also quite pale since she earlier used her medical pistol to fire a negative effect potion to reduce the Tyrant’s HP recovery rate. However, the result of her action was that the Tyrant immediately stopped its fight with the melee combat professions and quickly turned around towards her and leaped in front of her. Then, it swung its large claws which were half the size of an adult human at her head!
historical
If Feng Luo weren’t right beside her, pushing her out of the way and taking the hit on his body immediately, with Azure’s HP and equipment, she would have definitely died on the spot!
Another one who met a similar fate was Skynet. At the beginning of the battle, Skynet performed splendidly. He accurately hit the Tyrant’s right eye with one of his shots!
The next moment, the angered Mutant Tyrant completely ignored anyone else’s attempt to block it and dealt an over 5,000 Lethal Damage on Skynet, reducing their team’s number by one!
That was why their only remaining tactic was to have the four Heavy Armor Warriors surround the Tyrant so that the remaining long-range professions could slowly reduce its HP, and by the time its HP dropped to a number, they would increase their overall firepower and wipe it out in one go!
It was only a Level 45 Commander Grade monster, but the Tyrant forced them to use a Boss fight tactic!
“HP?” Feng Luo shouted as the Eye of the Thunder fired another shot, taking out 3% of the Mutant Tyrant’s HP.
Of course, with the enemy recovering 2% HP every second, the actual effect of the shot wasn’t all that obvious!
“15.7%!” Dan Hen sprayed another flurry of bullets from his submachine gun!
Although the four Heavy Armor Warriors surrounded the Tyrant, their alloy shields kept shaking. However, it did not deter Dan Hen as none of his bullets missed the Tyrant or hurt his allies, which signified his amazing gunmanship.
The reason the Tyrant was so difficult to deal with was, apart from its ability to react to threatening players and deal Lethal Damage on them, that its similarities to zombies due to the T-virus. This meant that attacks hitting its body parts would have significantly reduced damage while it could easily block attacks targeting its head and heart by waving around its large, tough, and incredibly powerful claws!
In addition, it recovered 2% HP every second, and it was even faster than after players had taken potions. It could also self-heal, so it was very hard to kill it.
Also, the Veterans Tribe players who had recognized its “identity” also discovered it had precedents of running away before dying.
That was why they had to take everything into account if they really wanted to get rid of this bastard.
The best method was to reduce its HP to a certain degree before dishing out extremely high damage on its weak points in one hit. To take out a large chunk of its HP in a short amount of time so that it did not have time to recover. The best-case scenario would be to send it directly into the “Heavy Injury” status so that it could not escape!
Apart from trying to avoid becoming the target of the Tyrant, the main reason Feng Luo continued to avoid attacking the Tyrant’s weak points was to wait for that opportunity to come!
And now, the time finally came!
“Ka!”
The Eye of the Thunder magazine was changed very quickly. Feng Luo squinted his eyes and was completely focused in an instant.
His muzzle aimed at the head of the Mutant Tyrant, the grayish-green eyes, and its eyebrows seemed to become larger in his sight.
After that, Feng Luo pressed on the trigger!
“Bang!”
“-1845!”
An expensive B-grade Shield-breaking Energy Bullet flew across a distance of 50 meters and struck the Mutant Tyrant’s jaw.
Immediately after that, a white damage number appeared above the Mutant Tyrant’s head.
Jaw? Not the eye of in between the eyes?!
Was it a mistake?
Feng Luo actually made a mistake with such an important shot?!
To have missed its eyes and inflict a Lethal Damage, even the high bonus damage of a B-grade Shield-breaking Energy Bullet could not deal more than 2,000 damage!
Combined with the attacks of the other players, the Tyrant’s HP still exceeded 7%!
This definitely affected the result of their tactic.
However, Feng Luo did not care about that anymore at that point, and the reason was that the moment he fired the shot, Feng Luo’s head shook violently, which caused his entire body to go limp.
As for the information displayed on his Biochip? It shocked him even more.
