Fatal Shot Chapter 265

“Hey Old Feng, come on! Quickly show me what's so special about this pet of yours!”

Big Pineapple continued to stare curiously at 24K while it hugged and chewed on the energy crystal. Although Big Pineapple didn't really like 24K's appearance, when he considered that 24K was a Boss-type creature, he knew that 24K was definitely something special! His previous words were somewhat teasing, but his curiosity never decreased.

Feng Luo saw that 24K's satiation level had gone over 80 percent, which meant that it wouldn't throw a fit if he asked it to do something. So, Feng Luo said, “24K, summon a few Bladed Beetles and a Scout Beetle!”

A psionic energy wave flashed across 24K's fist-sized body.

Zhi, zhi…

After that, a black hole appeared on the empty ground filled with leaves in front the both of them. An 80-centimeter creature with a barbed tail, a pair of reddish-brown sickles, and six strong, sharp limbs crawled out of the black hole! After it crawled out, it started waving its pair of sickles at Big Pineapple and fiercely opened its mouth. This was a Level-37 Elite Bladed Beetle!

24K seemed as if had intentionally summoned its best subordinate first.

But wait—the Elite Bladed Beetle was actually the second one to crawl out. In truth, the Elite Scout Beetle had been the first to crawl out, but due to its environmental camouflage ability, it was incredibly hard to detect it in a dimly lit environment like this with the naked eye. By that time, it had quietly flown over Big Pineapple's head and had already circled one round!

“What the f*ck? Old Feng…! This… This is… Your pet can summon minions! Moreover, based on the appearance of this minion, it looks like a combat-type creature. It can't be Elite-grade, can it? One, two, three… There's more!”

Big Pineapple's eyes were now as wide as pineapples. He stared at the black hole. Beetles crawled out of it one by one. Upon looking at them, he knew that the Bladed Beetles were definitely for use in battle.

However, he had not yet noticed the flying beetle above his head, almost completely merged into its surroundings. The Scout Beetle hidden in the dark was the real killer for Feng Luo!

“All right. That's enough!”

Feng Luo slapped the back of 24K's head. Then he told it through the mental link what it should do.

24K received the message. The Elite Scout Beetle flew away from Big Pineapple's head and continued to fly upward toward the sky! Feng Luo's vision also changed after the Scout Beetle flew past the top of the tree; the view became somewhat empty.

Big Pineapple was completely focused on four of the “hostile” Bladed Beetles that had surrounded him after crawling out of the wormhole. He did not notice Feng Luo's action. The Scout Beetle flew rather fast. By the time it reached a height of around 50 meters, its vision already covered a range 500 meters.

Although it was already dark, the Scout Beetle's special vision was not really affected.

After half a minute, Feng Luo's eyes returned to normal. Then he spoke to Big Pineapple.

“Let's go over there!”

Inside a relatively sparse forest on the edge of the hunter island, an Earth Manipulator was fighting against a T-750 while retreating at the same time with another Light Armor Warrior player!

The heavy weapon in the Hunter's hands seemed to have already run out of ammunition from their previous battle. As such, it was holding the alloy shield of some unlucky Heavy Armor Warrior. This Hunter's offense was much lower compared to when it could still use its gun—or compared to the Hunter using the alloy sword that Feng Luo and Big Pineapple had encountered earlier! However, with the herculean strength of the T-750 Hunter, the defensive equipment, and the alloy shield, it had also become an incredibly lethal and powerful weapon!

The T-750 swung the heavy alloy shield toward the Light Armor Warrior with its mechanical arm, producing sounds like leaves rustling in the wind as it moved. However, the Light Armor Warrior reacted quickly and leaped backward out of the range of the shield with his Thunder Leap Slash. As such, the alloy shield struck a tree trunk and produced a dull collision sound.

Bang!

The bark of the tree, as well as the trunk beneath, began to crack.

“F*ck. What crazy strength. It's definitely not easy to deal with!” the Manipulator standing behind the Warrior exclaimed.

He waved the staff in his hand. The energy condensed, and a sharp, one-meter Earth Spike appeared from the ground and struck between the legs of the T-750 Hunter. The location of the strike was incredibly accurate. Any normal player or humanoid NPC would have had its face turn green as a result!

However, at that moment, it was clear that even an energy Earth Spike could hardly deal substantial damage to the T-750 Hunter. When the supposedly tough and sturdy Earth Spike struck the metallic exoskeleton hidden underneath the synthetic skin of the T-750, it simply transformed back into the yellow-colored ball of energy it originally had been!

“Crazy defense as well!” the Light Armor Warrior exclaimed while continuing to retreat. “Mechanical monsters like these are indeed not easy to deal with!”

However, these two players were certainly strong. They kept retreating all the way, yet they didn't appear haggard and miserable! That was because the Light Armor Warrior was incredibly flexible and completely avoided direct confrontation with the T-750. As for the Earth Energy Manipulator, he was able to halt the forward progress of the Hunter pursuing them at crucial moments. Thanks to their cooperation, even this Hunter fell victim to these “hit and run” tactics.

Of course, the two players did not notice a beetle about the size of a fingernail, almost completely transparent, flying quietly above their heads. Its needle-sized eyes emanating an unnoticeable red light.

These two probably have the strength to get in the top 30. They aren't as easy to deal with as those previous players!

Feng Luo looked serious. The Barrett in his hand was loaded with the shield-breaking energy bullet that he'd unlocked with all the kill points he had remaining after unlocking the pet bracelet.

“Old Feng!” said Big Pineapple. “I'm so envious of your pet's ability. This is like having a Scout, as well as several Light Armor Warriors, accompanying you all the time!”

Big Pineapple, who was standing beside Feng Luo, looked like he was going to drool. He kept turning around to stare at 24K, who was hugging and chewing a new piece of energy crystal after being painted completely black with oil paint by Feng Luo.

In the bushes around 20 to 30 meters away from those two, the grass rustled as the dark red shell of a Bladed Beetle was occasionally exposed.

“Stop admiring them,” said Feng Luo. “Get ready for combat. It's going to be a tough one! But, all in all, our luck ain't so bad. We didn't really work too hard for this… To actually encounter another two Special Agent competitors so quickly…”

As Feng Luo spoke, he revealed a smile.

No doubt about it. Those two were both competitors in the Special Agent Mission.

A few minutes earlier, by using the Scout Beetle's special vision, Feng Luo had discovered powerful earth energy fluctuations not far from them. It was well known that all the Hunters used guns to fight and their energy cores were all compressed liquified energy with no elemental attributes, which indicated that the sources of the fluctuations were either players or NPCs!

And when the Scout Beetle reached its destination, based on the conversation between the two, Feng Luo had obtained important intel that the two players were also candidates of the Special Agent Mission.

For Big PIneapple, who longed to succeed in the Special Agent profession change mission, this was definitely good news that excited him. If it weren't for the fact that 24K's beetle summoning and commanding abilities shocked him so much and brought him many pleasant surprises along the way, Big Pineapple might have already lost patience and charged them.

However, at that moment, Feng Luo suddenly frowned.

“Hmm. No. There are three of them. This might be troublesome!”

In the visual field of the Scout Beetle, the two Special Agent Mission competitors had already lured the Hunter to the beach. And at that moment, the sound of a gunshot rang out.

From a position off to the side came the flare of a gunshot. Then a shield-breaking energy bullet with a light blue glow struck the body of the Hunter! Immediately after that, the two players turned around at the same time and used their strongest attack on the Hunter!
