Fatal Shot

"Ping!"

"-8678!"

A bullet traveled a distance of close to 500 meters, zoomed past the side of a toppled SUV on its side, and caught up with a Wind Manipulator who had jumped off a vehicle and was hurriedly fleeing.

After shattering the faint green layer of Energy Forcefield, the high-speed spinning double armor-piercing bullet first tore through his Energy robe, then drilled out through the front of his chest with a splatter of blood and the white light of death!

"The 37th!"

Feng Luo counted in his head as he stood up holding the Wings of Death.

The remaining two SUVs had already gone behind the tall dune across from him and had driven out of his shooting range.

However, the two SUVs left behind a glorious battle outcome!

At intervals, SUVs were scrapped or missing their engines. Fallen players' corpses surrounded the SUVs and beams of white light representing the piles of prizes surrounded those corpses!

In this battle, he had killed a total of 37 people. The opponent was only left with five people who had boarded two SUVs and escaped.

But these people probably did not have a high chance of escaping!

The Death Forest was still an entire 100 kilometers from here and the number of monsters along the way would not be few.

Feng Luo did not believe that their luck would have been so good to allow them to be able to escape.

…

"Big Brother Feng!"

When the last enemy had been defeated, from Feng Luo's side came the voice of Watermelon Skin. He also stood up holding a sniper rifle, his face full of admiration and delight.

"Brother Feng… Big Brother Feng…"

Calling out to him as well were My World, who had a broken arm, Iron Fortress, and Colorless Azure in a white Medic attire.

"Old Little Brother Feng, Brother Feng!"

Of course, there was Dan Hen and the other two, and Mu Zi and the rest walking towards them from another direction.

"Old Brother Dan Hen, we meet again!"

Feng Luo first nodded to Watermelon and the others, then looked at Dan Hen and said with a smile,

"Yeah…since we separated at Silvermoon City, this is the first time we've met!"

Feng Luo's voice had a tinge of pity .

When he spoke of Silvermoon City, his tone sounded slightly upset.

"Mm, let's keep these supplies and equipment on the ground first, then talk in the base…the blood all over this floor might attract some monsters with an acute sense of smell!"

Seeing him like this, Feng Luo felt that it was probably the fact that Silvermoon City had been conquered that Dan Hen felt hurt. Thus, he did not want to bother Dan Hen further and changed the topic.

…

A few minutes later, everyone including the reinforcements was already standing at the ground level of the building. This is where Feng Luo and the others had come out previously, from the underground base deeply buried in sand.

With illumination that was not made too bright and through a simple exchange of information, Feng Luo understood the reason for My World and the others coming here!

The last time, when Feng Luo had met Watermelon Skin, the serial mission they were on had already entered its last section.

The goal of the mission was to locate and retrieve an important item in the Death Forest, which was taken out from the NPC internal authority by a Federal spy agent. This agent had infiltrated the anti-government NPC camp before he was being hunted!

The difficulty of the mission was pretty high, as the Levels of the monsters in the Death Forest were not low. Plus, it was the territory of the anti-government NPC authority!

The My World team and the others were now already on par with mainstream players as they had sold the Permanent Enhancement Potion. Obtained from killing the quasi-BOSS octopus previously, the potion was in addition to the equipment gifted by Feng Luo's updating of everyone's equipment.

Despite this, they were powerless to enter the Death Forest.

But, coincidentally at this time, My World and the others from Silvermoon City had become friends with Skynet and the others, and the team of Dan Hen and the others was also going on a mission in the Death Forest.

Hence, after the two parties had discussed their plan, they decided to work together.

The mission had gone on pretty smoothly as the mission target item was hidden in a region that was not considered dangerous. They had succeeded in claiming the target item.

However, they had not expected that the moment they retrieved the item, they would be wanted by the NPC authority.

Although this wanted order was not given directly by the NPC army, it had announced a mission with attractive rewards to those Adventurers in the camp!

There were not many players under the NPC authority—there were just over 10 people in their two teams and it was therefore impossible to battle with the opponent at all.

Being forced, they had instead chosen to go deep into the Death Desert from the Death Forest to make use of the dangerous region to deter the opponent.

Or, even if they were undeterred, they only had to meet some powerful monsters along the way. Then, the teams would have the chance to slip away!

However, who would have thought that after walking the entire 100 kilometers and reaching this base, they had yet to meet a single high-level monster of Commander-Grade and above—it was as if these monsters had been held at bay by two lines of huge vehicles.

After that, once they were at the military base, they finally had their SUVs destroyed by the attacks from behind them, forcing them to alight!

If they had not met Feng Luo, the mission that they had spent an entire month on would have failed by now.

"What is your mission item?"

Listening up to this point, Dai asked curiously.

"Dai!"

Rose Thorns suddenly shouted. Her forehead creased and she shot him a look.

This question should definitely not be asked.

After all, since they risked earning a wanted order by NPCs, the item would surely be very valuable. Nobody would be willing to reveal its whereabouts.

It must be made known, the freedom in War missions was very high—it was not that you had to follow procedures once you have accepted a mission, and it was also not that you would surely get the rewards when you have completed the mission.

Just like on Devil Tri-Horn Island previously, Feng Luo and the others did not operate according to the mission procedures, but had obtained the BOSS Chip by entering the central base!

Another example was that, previously, Feng Luo had been at the Withered Desert when he killed that Desert Ant Queen BOSS and passed a series of missions. He then claimed the black Light Armored Warrior Dark Life Protozoa!

Due to these reasons, something like this important item involving missions would typically not be asked about in detail.

Therefore, Rose Thorns brought this to Dai's attention.

"Ahem…actually there's no need to keep it too much of a secret either, the mission item is a safe that's not considered large."

"But that box is very firm and has strict encryption, so we don't know the general situation yet…Our mission requirement is to bring the box back, then hand it to the NPC and we'd earn Merit and item rewards!"

My World voiced out, easing the slight awkwardness as a result of what Dai had said.

"Right, Big Brother Feng, this mission still accepts members now!"

"As long as the number of people is within the upper limit, those with sufficient contribution upon participating in the mission would all be able to find the NPC and claim the rewards. Let us share the mission with you…"

Azure thought of the mission and said to Feng Luo, looking at him with anticipation.

"That's right!"

Watermelon Skin's eyes lit up as well.
