[Thank you Brother Xiang for the super red envelope! awesome! ]
This is already the end of Shadow Canyon, and the cliff above narrows and closes in front of Nicholas. The mud and sand on the ground have been mixed with a lot of water vapor, and the air spit out from the cave in front is damp and cold. Nicholas judged that there is a water area inside, and the area is not small. Why did that rookie come to this place? Suddenly Nicholas figured it out, it was because the other party had already discovered him.
An alert rookie, Nicholas thought. It should be that he was injured. Although he tried his best to lighten his movements when approaching from behind, the injury inevitably involved some places. For example, the movements of the limbs and even the movement of energy, but his existence can be found, which shows that the rookie is not simple. The cave is dark, like a monster's big mouth waiting for its prey to come to its door, and a trace of murderous aura mixed in the air floats out.
Nicholas thought of the sniper rifle behind the opponent. In other words, the rookie was waiting in the dark for an opportunity to snipe.
The Prophet laughed, it was a fun game. Nicholas thought, in fact, this guy had already lost from the very beginning, because the palm he slapped on his back had actually planted the "seed". Given the right moment, the seed will take root and grow into a tree of death that hangs the target.
He wasn't afraid of the dark, and those with abilities in the Perception Domain had plenty of ways to scout the environment. The easiest way to deal with darkness is to toggle infrared vision. Nicholas did exactly that, and the scene in his sight changed. The world is painted with a layer of red light, and in the red light, everything in the cave is clearly visible. Just as Nicholas thought, there is a vast underground lake in the cave. I don't know how deep it is, but the water is overflowing and the water storage is quite rich. Several tributaries branched out from the west side of the Earth Lake, pouring the water in the Earth Lake continuously to other directions. The Prophet guessed that some of the tributaries should pass through Dawn City. Then the city can provide the city with a steady stream of clean water as long as it drills a few deep pumping wells in the direction of the branch flow, and then equips with water purification units and other equipment.
In the new era, with water, there will be everything.
Nicholas glanced around. There are several raised stones in the cave, and even a few rock pillars connected to the top of the cave. These are good places to hide. The Prophet began to walk towards the cave, deliberately stomping on the ground to make a sound. Sure enough, as he expected, the murderous intent in the air suddenly became stronger, and the rookie had already noticed his arrival. It's just a guy who can't hide his murderous intent, no matter how strong he is, he's just a rookie.
The position he walked was deliberately calculated, and it happened to be in the shooting blind spot of those hiding spots. If he wanted to attack him, the opponent would have to change positions, and no matter which position he changed, he would be exposed to Nicholas. Of course, in the eyes of the other party, the cave is still dark, so the rookie will think that he has not been exposed. When he left from the hiding point, it was time for Nicholas to make a move.
Hunter and prey will exchange identities at this moment.
Just as he was about to enter the cave, Nicholas suddenly felt that he had tripped over something, and there was a sound of something breaking in the air.
The Prophet's hair suddenly exploded, he didn't care about any games at the moment, and rushed into the hole with all his strength.
Explosions appeared on both sides of the entrance, and the flames of the explosion made the hole red. But in the eyes of Nicholas, it was almost like a round of the sun falling in front of his eyes. He was activating his infrared vision, and the brightness of the sudden firelight magnified countless times in his pupils. The Prophet snorted and closed his eyes, but his pupils were burning with pain.
At this moment, the murderous intent skyrocketed.
Nicholas just had time to deploy a defensive force field when he heard dull gunshots. Immediately, he sketched the pattern of the rotary cannon in his mind, and Nicholas' face changed color. Stopping his figure, he rolled on the spot, a fiery line of fire plowed past his original position, and swept across the hole on the left, causing large pieces of rock to fall off and shatter. At this time, there was another sharp whistling sound.
The whistling sound continued, and after the rotary cannon, Nicholas heard that it was the sound of multiple rocket pods launching. He cursed, pressed his hands empty, and the continuous shock force field spread, detonating one after another small rockets in the air. Feeling the shock of the explosion and the scorching gale, the Prophet breathed a sigh of relief. The opponent is easy to ride, so he must not have much ammunition for this kind of heavy force. It will be much easier to deal with this wave of fierce offensive.
At this moment, there was a needle-like pain in the left temple. Nicholas felt terrified, knowing that the opponent's sniper had finally arrived. In the busy schedule, he retreated suddenly, his left arm still hurt, and then the rough gunfire of the sniper rifle echoed in the cave, and Nicholas was still shot by the opponent.
Judging from the sound of the gunshot, the opponent used an old-fashioned gun. If it is a high-energy driven firearm of the new era, the sound is not so loud at all. But conversely, when the energy drives the firing pin to hit the bullet, it will be captured by Nicholas due to the sudden energy reaction, which makes it much easier for the Prophet to deal with. Nicholas believed that with the technology currently displayed in Dawn City, there must be many such sniper rifles.
But the other party still used old-fashioned firearms, could it be that they deliberately targeted him. After figuring this out, Nicholas's breath became icy cold. He had put away his game mood and planned to seriously kill the sniper. The opponent's performance was no longer something that a rookie could do. He withdrew his previous judgment, and then raised it to an opponent that needed to be seriously killed.
"Come out, mouse hiding in the shadows." Nicholas said lightly, he opened his eyes, and the pupils were bloodshot. But he could already see things, and the infrared vision was still activated, so he saw a burst of water bubbles surging on the lake on the west side, and then someone swam to the shore with a sniper rifle and climbed up.
"It's actually hidden in the water, it's interesting."
Water is a special medium, to a large extent, water can block or disperse the conduction of energy. For example, it cuts off most of the senses of the capable person, making it an excellent hiding spot. Nicholas looked at the side facing the hole again. The locomotive that the knight drove before was parked there. At the front of the locomotive was a miniature rotary cannon, and on both sides hung rocket slots that had been fired.
It is conceivable that its weapon system should be activated by remote control. The locomotives of the new era are generally equipped with a simple intelligent operating system, which greatly liberates the hands of the locomotive owner, and can cooperate with the locomotive weapon system to do many things that cannot be done normally. to the tactical action.
For example, the weapon system of the locomotive was used to attack Nicholas, while the sniper shot coldly in another place that surprised him. To be honest, he almost made it, if Nicholas wasn't high-level.
The knight who crawled out of the water had a weird posture, as if he was being pushed away by an invisible person. Full of reluctance, but helpless, so the walking posture is indescribably weird. Nicholas sneered and said: "It seems that you should be a sniper carefully cultivated by Dawn City, not bad. Whether it is tactics or the grasp of sniper points, you can be called first-class. Unfortunately, it is still a little bit worse to deal with me."
"Now you should be very strange, isn't your body not listening?" Nicholas looked at his left hand, and couldn't help frowning. The blood flowed profusely there, he could only stretch out his hand to cover the outside of the wound, creating an attractive force field, sucking out the bullet inside. While doing these actions, he continued to say: "Didn't your commander tell you that I have the ability to control other people's bodies, so it's perfectly normal for your body and will to be out of coordination now. Hey, damn it, unexpectedly Still a dirty bomb!"
Seeing the weird fluorescent coating on the metal bullet that fell on the ground, Nicholas knew it was a dirty bomb. A so-called dirty bomb is one in which a bullet is deliberately soaked in nuclear waste to fill it with radiation. If such a bullet hits the target, even ability users below the eighth level will have an abnormal headache. Of course, for a high level like Nicholas, the energy absorbed from the space is enough to purify the radiation in the body, but the process is a little troublesome.
But this sniper's unscrupulous approach made his murderous intent even stronger. There is nothing more terrifying than a killer who doesn't talk about principles just to win. Nicholas even lost his usual interest in playing with prey. He sighed and said to the knight, "Suicide. Right in front of me, no, wait a minute. Take off the tactical helmet and then swallow the gun and kill yourself. Well, this is I give you judgment."
The knight did as expected. He took off his tactical helmet with one hand and threw it on the ground, revealing his rare black hair. Nicholas' heart beat suddenly, and the knight raised his head suddenly. In the eyes of the prophet, the golden eyes of the other party were emitting thin flames, which was a phenomenon of extreme energy movement. At the same time, this person's face overlapped with the information of someone in Nicholas' mind, and the prophet couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is it you? Zero?"
The other party waved the sniper rifle horizontally, replacing answers with actions. Being able to move freely under the ability of complete control means that the opponent is at least tenth level, so the identity is naturally ready to be revealed. Except for the color of the eyes and the slight discrepancies in the information, this man is no different from the man who has already been on Andre's must-kill list.
The butt of the sniper rifle swept across, and Nicholas fell back. Pointing to the ground, he stepped back fiercely. However, after a wave, the sniper rifle fell to the ground, and Zero had disappeared. Nicholas's body froze, and someone lightly tapped his back suddenly, followed by a spiral energy ripple coming out of his chest, wringing Nicholas's shirt to pieces. The Prophet's whole body was shaken violently, and blood spurted out involuntarily.
That seemingly light attack actually caused him so much damage that it could no longer be measured by numbers. The spiral ripples penetrating the chest, the energy is highly concentrated, and the explosive power is amazing. What's more, Nicholas' defensive force field has no resistance at all under this attack, which means that this ripple also has excellent armor-piercing ability.
Unexpectedly, Nicholas got hurt even more. He put his hands on his chest, threw himself forward, and then turned around panting. Stretching out his hand to wipe the blood from his mouth, he said coldly: "Ling, you are also a tenth-level powerhouse, and you still use such a method?"
Zero didn't respond to Nicholas' question at all. He said indifferently: "Facing an eleventh order, and foolishly attacking from the front, then my brain must be burned out. Besides, try to fight for yourself. A level playing field, and I don't see anything wrong with playing tricks."
