Chapter 437: Passive

POSTED ON JULY 19, 2023 BY KEN

Looking at the combat prompt, Koi’s heart sank suddenly.

Because she had shot down the [Drone] released by Fang Linyan twice before, so based on her habitual thinking, she thought she could finish it with 1 shot.

But now she realized that 1 shot wasn’t enough!

What’s more, after the shot, this [Drone]… no, the unmanned bird was still hovering in the sky.

The enemy had already approached within 80 meters when she was shooting, and he and his summons split up and assaulted from 2 directions.

Koi took out the last special ammunition in distress.

This ammunition had the thickness of a pen. Fiery red texts were engraved on the ammunition, which were the fantasy and mysterious elemental language runes.

These elemental runes seem to be poured with magma. They were still flowing slowly on the bright metal shell of the ammunition as if they were alive.

Koi loaded the ammunition into the sniper, then she aimed at Fang Linyan.

She activated her own “precision” supportive shooting ability, which could double the damage of the next shot and grant the true hit attribute, then she pulled the trigger.

After the shot was fired, the sound of the gunshot was like thunder. While shooting past the tree branches, a large number of leaves were shaken off.

Not only that, but the muzzle also burst out a wave of crimson light like a volcanic eruption.

“Go! Kill this bastard for me!!”

Koi gritted her teeth, relishing the taste of revenge as she watched the bullet, that she pinned her hope on, fly away.

That was 1 of the 2 special elemental ammunition that she exchanged with 2 black equipment with decent attributes!

But this elemental ammunition was a consumable item.

So this thing was a complete burning money. This shot severely damaged Koi’s wallet and caused her heart to bleed.

After the elemental ammunition flew 50 meters, the elemental language runes on it completely lit up.

There was even a crimson glow of magma emanating from the surrounding area, and the air was also filled with the smell of sulfur.

When approaching Fang Linyan, a ferocious Balrog phantom was formed behind the elemental ammunition. It opened its big bright red mouth and bit at Fang Linyan fiercely.

However, what happened in the next second made Koi’s eyes widen. This round of elemental ammunition actually penetrated the forehead of “Fang Linyan” as if it had hit an illusion.

Then it hit the big tree behind with a bang.

This big tree had luxuriant branches and leaves. The dark green leaves were very broad and thick. There were many aerial roots hanging from above. It took at least a dozen people to join hands to hug it.

If it was in an open space, it could even be worthy of the words “a single tree forms a forest”.

However, after being shot by that elemental ammunition, such a huge creature trembled violently.

Immediately afterward, scorch marks began to appear from the shot, the leaves quickly turned yellowish, and the trunk was swallowed by the raging fire.

A Balrog about 1 meter in length walked out of it, holding a blazing long whip. It screamed angrily,

“I hate the smell of trees, the unpleasant plant essences. Where are the blood and flesh, foolish sacrificer!”

Then, the Balrog turned pale and disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Koi’s heart completely cooled down.

It turned out that this round of elemental ammunition had 2 stages after firing.

In the first stage, after hitting the enemy, it would inflict powerful fire damage to the enemy. The higher the damage, the more vitality could be drained from the enemy.

The second stage was to use this vitality as a sacrifice to summon the creatures of the fire elemental plane. Because the Balrog had high intelligence, it usually responded first.

Koi still clearly remembered that when she used the first round of fire elemental ammunition, she aimed at the eye of a mutated boss.

The damage of the fire elemental ammunition was already high, and her shooting skill doubled its power. Even more frightening, she triggered the true hit, hit the vital point of the eye, and inflicted a critical strike!

The effect of [Double Burst] was also triggered!

The power of that shot could only be described as an imbalance.

The Balrog that was finally summoned was 5 meters high and had a real name called “La XXXXXX”,

Holding a flaming sword, its power could destroy the world.

It said with extremely domineering lines,

“Why did you wake me up, foolish human!”

It was in stark contrast to this “underage Balrog”.

“How is it possible! Doesn’t this shoot come with a true hit attribute?”

While resolutely turning around and running away, Koi forced herself to suppress the annoyance in her heart, gritted her teeth and tore open a scroll glowing with silver light.

This was another 1 of her trump cards.

This scroll was called the Fate Parting Line. After using it, a random door would be randomly summoned within a 100-meter radius around the caster.

After passing through this randomized door, he would arrive at the place he preset (limited to the location in this world. The location set by Koi this time was in the cellar of a small village 50 miles away.)

The enemy couldn’t enter the randomized door, but it could be destroyed. Its defense was 0. Its HP was ten times the maximum HP of the caster, and it would not be protected by PVP law.

When the caster is within 10 meters of the randomized door, any enemy attack on the caster would be transferred to any door.

The reason why it was called the Fate Parting Line lay in the position where a randomized door appeared.

Usually, it would only be used in a very critical situation.

If this randomized door appears at the side of the caster using the scroll, then without a doubt, the goddess of fate is smiling at him.

The worst situation is that the randomized door appears next to the enemy 100 meters away, then the goddess of fate has obviously turned her ass to you.

This time, Koi found that her luck was quite decent.

A randomized door with silver light appeared in the middle of the battlefield.

The door frame of this light door was full of sense of technology. The brilliance was flowing on it, and a translucent circular shield was formed with the randomized door as the center. The radius of the shield was 10 meters.

If a straight line was drawn between Koi and Fang Linyan, then she was only 40 meters away from the randomized door while Fang Linyan was 50 meters away.

And Koi only needed to run 10 meters within the randomized door.

In other words, she actually only needed to run 30 meters.

Under such circumstances, Koi ran toward that side without thinking. After seeing this scene, Fang Linyan was also stunned, then he immediately ran forward too.

The distance between the 2 sides shortened rapidly. Fang Linyan squinted his eyes as his brain was rapidly collecting data around him and calculating all possible variables.

When Koi was only 10 meters away from the energy shield of the randomized door,

Fang Linyan had decisively controlled the [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] in the sky to swoop down and fired a high-explosive grenade.

This grenade exploded in front of her. Although it did not pose any threat to Koi who took the full recovery potion (large), she still instinctively stretched out her arm to protect her face while rushing forward.

Immediately afterward, Fang Linyan launched a [Dragon Cough Flash] at her!!

The attack range of [Dragon Cough Flash] upgraded by runeword had reached 50 meters away. When hitting Koi, it also triggered a 2 seconds stun.

At the same time, the smoke bomb launched by [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] has exploded around her, spewing out the gray mist.

At this time, Fang Linyan was still 30 meters away from Koi.

But Rubes surpassed Fang Linyan and rushed to the front by relying on its high agility of its beast form, which was 15 agility.

2 seconds passed in a flash. Soon, Koi woke up from the stun.

Although the surrounding area was covered by thick smoke, she could only see less than one meter at most, but she still clearly remembered the direction of any door, so she ran a few steps forward.

Only 6 meters away!

An excited thought surged in Koi’s mind.

However, after she took another step, she suddenly felt an indescribable force coming from her front, pressing her to the ground.

Then she felt out of control again. A heavy and ferocious beast bit her neck tightly, causing severe pain. The sharp teeth began to tear her flesh.

The battle log appeared on her retinas,

“You are being attacked by Contestant ZB419’s summon: Rubes. You are affected by [Bite], so you will be stunned for 4 seconds.”

TL: Will these 4 seconds be enough to finish off Koi?
