The Death List Novel - Chapter 250
Chapter 250 Archer
After the alien appeared, he obediently circled behind Oddo like a loyal bodyguard.
After summoning the Alien, Oddo ignored it. Instead, he reached into his arms and took out a magic scroll with black runes engraved on its surface. The Summoner looked at the magic scroll with some hesitation. He was unable to make up his mind for a moment. This was already a trump card he had prepared for the city’s hegemony battle.
One of these magic scrolls was missing, and it was very difficult to buy on the market. This was specially prepared for him by the leader of the Skyfloat rookies.
Just as Oddo was hesitating, the Alien behind him quietly took a step closer and slowly opened his mouth. The sharp-fanged tongue shot out like a bullet towards the back of the summoner’s head, trying to devour Oddo’s master.
Unfortunately, Oddo was a professional summoner after all, and the abnormality of the summoned object immediately caused his heart to throb. The Summoner suddenly turned around and avoided the Alien Tongue Tool. At the same time, his pupils instantly turned bronze and glared fiercely at the Alien.
“Ao!” The Alien looked as if it had been heavily hit, and with a raise of its head, it fell back to the ground and rolled painfully. At the same time, Oddo’s face turned slightly pale. He panted for breath and his pupils slowly returned to normal.
“You bastard with a brain that rejects bones. Next time, I’ll let you be the bait for the Black Scaled Beast!” Oddo said evil words, but he sighed in his heart.
Although this Alien had been captured and raised by him since childhood, it was born with high intelligence and ruthlessness. Even though he knew that his soul would perish if he devoured his master, he still refused to tame him. If it wasn’t for the fact that this alien had already reached rank six, reaching the peak of an intermediate creature, and had a sliver of hope of advancing to a higher level, Oddo would have long since replaced it.
Thinking of this, Oddo did not have the mood to think. He shook his hand and tore open the magic scroll with the black runes engraved on it. The moment the magic scroll was uncovered, a ball of white smoke covered the abnormality that was rolling on the ground like a veil.
After being enveloped by the white mist, the Alien Form gradually became transparent. Soon, the enormous ferocious beast disappeared from the spot, and only its faint roar could be heard.
“Silence!” Oddo scolded softly, his expression gradually becoming serious as he raised his staff high again.
As the blue pearl at the top of the staff shone slightly, another Alien appeared in front of the Summoner. Its movements were almost identical to that of the Alien from earlier. However, upon closer inspection, one could see that this alien was somewhat stunned. He could only follow the Summoner’s instructions and make some simple movements.
Qin Lun used the Gale Steps and Claw Chains to fly over the top of the pillars and search back and forth. For a moment, he had the elegance of a Spider-Man. Every time he reached the top of a stone pillar, he would pretend to look around. Actually, the detection halo that was 70 meters wide had long been able to see everything in its surroundings.
The Black Scaled Beast that had been chasing Qin Lun back and forth beneath the stone pillar had disappeared. He didn’t know if he had lost his target or if the Summoner had given up on this futile pursuit.
This arena itself wasn’t very big, and Qin Lun’s detection halo was relatively more useful here. After two round-trip searches, he checked most of the grounds. What surprised him was that the summoner had never moved his position, and was still in the corner of the field where he had originally come out.
The reason for that was very simple. The orange-red ball of light that originally represented the Black Scaled Beast had all gathered at that location. There were two other relatively large red balls of light in their center. One of them should be the Summoner himself.
Seeing this, Qin Lun frowned slightly and then smiled, “Trap?”
In this arena, there were numerous stone pillars everywhere. In fact, more than twenty Black Scaled Beasts were unable to use them. On the contrary, the arena where the two apostles had just come out was relatively spacious, making it easier for the Black Scaled Beast to surround them.
Normal archers would probably be overjoyed to see the summoner put on such a posture, standing at the top of the stone pillar and launching a long-range attack against the summoner. However, Qin Lun did not think so.
The stone pillars in the field were originally erected from large bluestones, and the top area was only one square meter in size. Sagittarius could indeed attack from above, but he also limited his range of action. If the summoner used magic to shoot him down, he would immediately be surrounded by the Black Scaled Beast. At that time, it would be very difficult for him to escape.
“You went to great lengths to design such a trap. If I don’t step on it for you, I won’t let you down in vain!”
A trace of mockery appeared in Qin Lun’s eyes. He was now more and more certain that the Summoner opposite him had not experienced many mission worlds. Perhaps it had always been under the care of others that he had grown up.
The apostles deliberately nurtured by such large groups had a fatal weakness. They had always fought in a team, and their combat duties were too simple. They were usually only responsible for one part of the battle. The MT is only responsible for defense, the archer is only responsible for long-range attacks, and the auxiliary profession is responsible for increasing the combat profession.
These apostles, accustomed to team battles, had a superficial understanding of the combat profession. If they had not experienced setbacks or a large number of actual battles, they would not have known the hardships and pain of exercising their apprentices alone.
Without the help of a team, even if they changed their profession to ranged archers, they would still have to learn melee combat. After changing to MT, he would increase his defense and also take into account his offensive capabilities. In this way, although the resources were dispersed, they were very independent and could cope with all kinds of situations.
The trap that Oddo had set up now completely ignored whether Qin Lun possessed any other abilities and treated him as a pure archer. Obviously, in his guild, they were all newbies like this. Based on his knowledge, the Sagittarius profession should be like this.
“Coming!” Looking at the opponent who suddenly appeared at the top of the stone pillar, Oddo’s pupils shrank. However, the heat from the bottom of his heart was like a tidal wave, spreading throughout his body, causing him to feel hot blood surging.
In the rookies of Sky Float, Oddo had never had such a face-to-face battle with an opponent. That was not his responsibility. However, if he knew about Qin Lun’s analysis of him, he would definitely not agree.
In the rookies, he was the only one who needed to take care of the overall situation. Long-range output is not enough, need to use him; If there was an omission in the MT, he would use the summoning item to fill the blank. Sometimes, even if his auxiliary profession didn’t have any magic power, he could use his summoned items to save his companions who were in danger.
No independent combat capability? What a joke! Oddo would never agree that he did not have the ability to fight independently. In his view, the Summoner was the only full profession amongst the apostles. He insisted on participating in the urban hegemony war, precisely because he wanted to use this hegemony war to prove his ability.
Qin Lun looked at Oddo, who was surrounded by the Black Scaled Beast with his back against the stone pillar. He grinned and revealed a mouthful of white teeth. However, his eyes lit up when he saw the abnormality beside the Summoner.
“No wonder you are so confident. This alien is your trump card?”
“Aliens?” Oddo was slightly stunned. He looked at the abnormality beside him and smiled faintly, “This is a Titan biochemical beast. Since you know it, then it’s even better. You don’t need to say that I’m bullying you!”
‘”Haha, I should be the one bullying you! I really don’t know why your rookie guild leader wants you to participate in the City Hegemon Tournament. It’s really good luck to run into an opponent like you in the last selection!” Qin Lun laughed loudly and circled his claw chain around his left arm a few times before pulling out his two guns again.
‘”How did you know I was a newcomer to a large guild” Ao Duo’s expression changed slightly. He was about to continue asking when Qin Lun had already opened fire.
“Bang! Bang!” Two bullets, one white and one black, drew two streaks of light in the air and shot towards Oddo.
“Humph!” Oddo’s footsteps flashed and he retreated to the back of the pillar. He raised his staff at the same time, and the Alien and half of the Black Scaled Beast in front of him immediately rushed towards the pillar, climbing towards the top of the pillar like ants.
The fading clockwork pupils in Qin Lun’s eyes appeared again, but only two hands appeared this time. The three hands’ Eye of the Clock consumed too much energy. The three hands that Qin Lun had used earlier weren’t based on the Eye of the Clock’s main body ability, but on the disguised Heavenly Spirit Eye, which was only used for reconnaissance.
In the cold and heartless pupils of the clock, the two hands only jumped slightly. Everything around Qin Lun seemed to have slowed down tens of times. Even the trajectories of the two bullets he had just fired could be clearly seen, and the ripples of the bullets passing through the air resistance could even be clearly seen.
Just hide behind the pillar? Let me show you what a real shooter should look like!
“Pa!” Qin Lun expressionlessly snapped his fingers. Following the snapping of his fingers, a mini pentagram formation the size of a fingernail appeared on each side of the two black and white bullets.
These two Mini Pentagram Arrays were like two translucent glass mirrors. As they exploded, they transformed into two elementium explosive strikes that slanted towards the sides of the two bullets, causing them to instantly deviate from their original trajectories.
Refraction Spear Technique 3-Crystal Mirror Refraction!
A single refraction was not enough to bypass the stone pillar and attack the Summoner. However, the two bullets formed a cross trajectory after being refracted by the crystal mirror. Just a few seconds after zero, the bullet collided again. The white bullet landed on the side of the black bullet and changed the trajectory of the black bullet for the second time. Oddo’s face finally appeared in front of the bullet.
Refraction Spear Technique 2-Ballistic Refraction!
Looking at the bullet that was close at hand, Oddo was stunned. He was at a loss for what to do. Luckily, the protective equipment he carried with him had spontaneously rescued his master, and a white magical shield had instantly unfolded in front of him.
“Boom!” The Demon Song’s black bullet seemed to have hit a tough layer of cowhide. Although it had pierced through the magic shield, its power had greatly diminished, only cutting through the skin between Oddo’s eyebrows.
“Clang!” The sound of the bullet landing woke up Oddo who was at a loss.
“I’m injured!” The Summoner wiped his forehead and looked at the blood on his hand. His pupils dilated and his shoulders trembled slightly.
Fear, regret, excitement, confusion … At this moment, many emotions surged into Oddo’s heart, causing his handsome and fair cheeks to turn liver-colored.
