Chapter 448 - Accident
Feng Luo initially wanted to extend his right hand, but stopped.
For some reason, his heart which was able to clearly discern game from reality was moved. He extended his right arm and placed his hand on top of Sulli’s head. As he felt the searing heat on her forehead, he raised his brow.
“Body temperature has reached 43 degrees Celcius. Heart rate increased to 205 per minute.”
Although Phoenix sounded cold, her cold and expressionless eyes now had a bit of anxiety mixed within.
To her, Sulli’s realism was perhaps above Feng Luo and Onishi, the two players.
“Let’s get out of here first. I might know someone who can deal with this problem.” Feng Luo said with a sullen face.
He did not know what was wrong with little Sulli at the moment. It may be caused by the T-virus or the G-virus infection, or perhaps it was something else entirely.
Regardless, Lin should have the strength to deal with this... If they could not deal with it, the Federation’s Special Agent Departments should have methods to provide aid.
Apart from that, they needed to get out as soon as possible because returning members of Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had already forced their way through a few doors and were close to the entrance, based Digital Cat’s reminder through the comms.
Once their path was blocked, the enemy would be able to secure the six-barrel machine gun that was already set up in key positions.
Even if each and every one of them had awakened the Force, the difficulty of breaking through would still be quite high.
In particular, if they wanted to guarantee little Sulli’s safety.
...
“Let’s go!” Feng Luo had already switched his weapon to the Eye of the Thunder. Additionally, he had brought out the two B-grade special bullets. On his tactical vest, apart from the Ghost Weep military knife, five perfect grade magazines were also neatly tucked inside.
To have five perfect grade backup magazines was something that most sniper players would be envious about.
historical
For many Sniper players, getting a Rare Grade sniper rifle was a great thing; but at the same time, it was troublesome.
Rare grade sniper rifles normally only had one magazine. If they wanted to reload quickly, they could only load up other sniper rifle magazines that were of different grades, negatively affecting the weapon’s stats.
Only a complete sniper rifle set provided bonuses after being properly assembled.
Players who used the Eye of the Thunder were the same. When Feng Luo made it, due to limited Rare materials, none of the rifles that had the normal rating came with a magazine.
Even if the Eye of the Thunder was evaluated as perfect, it only came with one magazine with an Excellent evaluation grade.
Onishi was surprised by Feng Luo’s action earlier was partly due to the special B-grade sniper bullets, and the other part was the perfect evaluation grade Eye of the Thunder magazines that contained the bullets.
“His relationship with the Gun Mechanic expert who manufactures the Eye of the Thunder must be something...” Onishi thought at that time.
Onishi did not contemplate if Feng Luo was the one who was mass-producing the Eye of the Thunder. After all, generally speaking, players had limited strength and it was quite difficult to be successful both in terms of combat as well as life professions.
Feng Luo’s combat ability was, without a doubt, among the best in War. Even his commanding ability was among the best.
If his life profession was also just as strong, then Onishi’s Number One Expert in North City would probably take a big hit.
...
Two players were running in front while carrying their weapons inside the underground tunnel. Phoenix, was carrying little Sulli wrapped in a blanket, with one hand. Her other hand held the fiery red alloy sword.
As they reached a turn in the tunnel, the three could not help but stop, due to the peculiar situation in front of them.
“Did their battle end?” Onishi’s eyes were full of doubt. The submachine gun he held in his hand was already raised and aimed at the cold-faced Caucasian woman looking at them.
The situation on the outside of the tunnel was certainly very unexpected. Aida and the Caucasian woman were no longer fighting as they had expected, nor was there a clear winner from the fight.
The two women were in a standoff, several meters between them. Aida, who was wearing the dark red leather suit, had a bruise from a fist on her leg while the Caucasian woman’s abdomen and neck had trails of blood from being brushed by bullets.
The walls and ground around the two had several more sunken holes and traces of bullets!
When Feng Luo and the other two were fighting the Tyrant, a quick yet fierce battle unfolded in that area. Resulting in a stale-mate as both sides were evenly matched.
In this situation, the problem was that, could the Caucasian woman actually be the real stage Boss and the three players still had to fight another round?
But what came next made the three breathe a sigh of relief, when Aida spoke.
“You’ve lost.” Aida said coldly to the Caucasian woman.
“True, I lost.” The Caucasian woman replied, who was surprisingly quite compliant and did not retort, standing there with a cold expression.
“Good. You can leave now.”
“Leave? We can leave, just like that?”
When Feng Luo and Onishi heard that, they looked and each other, clearly in disbelief.
From her tone before the battle, the Caucasian woman was definitely not someone who easily surrendered.
“I’m only doing this for the money, and I have no plans of dying for money.” The Caucasian woman’s expression remained cold and her tone implied that she did not completely admit defeat.
“But you guys better hope you never encounter me ever again. Otherwise...” Her gaze moved past the three players as a vicious and murderous intent was shown on her face.
“Really?”
“Hah...”
Feng Luo and Onishi were not threatened by the NPC, they simply stared right back at the Caucasian woman with calm expressions.
Phoenix did not pay attention, as she was completely focused on little Sulli.
“Hmph!” The Caucasian woman snorted, an even colder stare could be felt from her stare.
...
After a dozen or so seconds, four players carrying a little girl left the end of the tunnel quickly.
“Bzzt!”
A beam of red light flashed across the eyes of the Caucasian woman.
After that, the tunnel within her field of view changed completely. Tracks that looked like fish swimming through water suddenly appeared in the invisible air.
Within the metallic tunnel, five lines of tracks were expanding and shrinking constantly, this meant that five people had moved past the area a few seconds ago.
Phoenix, Feng Luo, Onishi, and Aida, including the little girl Sulli, would be five who had moved past the area. The problem was, the little girl was held by Dark Phoenix, which meant that there should have only been four flowing tracks in the air; however, right now, there was five.
This was the reason the Caucasian woman was so compliant.
“Hidden Force ability. Another annoying type of Force.” The Caucasian woman touched the bullet wound on the side of her neck with a blank expression. She loosened a flashing red button on her wrist.
“C-400 compact energy bomb release.” A mechanical female voice sounded. After that, the Caucasian woman scanned the over ten corpses of the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group elite players inside the tunnel’s compound.
“Two experts with the Force, a group of adventurers with decent strength. These people might be from the Federation government. The adventurers’ strength definitely exceeded expectations. It’s no wonder why the general wants to recruit new adventurers to join us. But the people he recruited are just a bunch of useless trash.”
