Chapter 642: Instant Kill
Nobunaga's body tightened. Even though he was in a desperate situation, he wasn't going to give up.
— Nobunaga! Uvogin roared. Nobunaga turned his head and reluctantly smiled at Uvogin.
In the next instant, a bullet thundered through Nobunaga's left chest. Part of his body literally disappeared, and his arm flew far to the side.
Blood and minced meat splattered Shallnark's face, and Machi waved her hand, sending many threads flying towards her companion, but it was too late.
Nobunaga staggered back a few steps, looking down at the missing half of his chest along with the torn heart.
— He... On the east side... On the hill... and with that, he fell to the ground.
All the Spiders immediately started moving towards the opposite hill, trying to stay in the trees.
*BOOM-BOOM*
Two more shots rang out. One of the bullets sank into a large rock and split it apart, while the other "kissed" Shallnark's left hand and took a decent chunk of its flesh with it.
The moving target was almost taken out of the fight, and this target was quite fast, which very well demonstrated the noticeably increased accuracy of Su Xiao.
From the very beginning, he had planned the three consecutive shots that killed Nobunaga. He decided to kill him first due to the fact that Nobunaga and Uwogin became much stronger if they worked together, and this guy also used a katana and could greatly interfere with Su Xiao's close-range attacks.
And when Su Xiao saw the first steps of the Spiders after Nobunaga's death he immediately understood.
Most Spiders had one weakness — weak defense. Nobunaga was strong in close combat, but he died due to just one shot from the Spider Queen. In fact, only Uvogin could survive a direct hit from this sniper rifle..
But compared to the contractors, Nobunaga's body was very solid. The last time a contractor was hit by a bullet from the Spider Queen, all that was left of the contractor was " horns and legs».
Su Xiao believed that without using an energy shield, a shot from the Spider Queen could easily kill him as well, with just one shot. The attack power of "60-134" units wasn't a joke.
Moreover, this sniper rifle had a skill that increased the chance of crushing enemies by 30%.
Even if the head of the Spiders, Kuroro Lucifer, was shot in the head with this rifle, he would have died immediately.
However, it wasn't always possible to use the Spider Queen. She needed open ground and an enemy that wasn't ready for a surprise attack.
[You killed Nobunaga Hazama.
Nobunaga Hazama is a member of the Spider faction, you have obtained 7.4% of the World Source and now have a total of 29.7% of the World Source.]
[Due to the murder of a member of the Spider faction, your reputation among that faction has dropped by 300 points. Your current reputation among Spiders is -200 points (you are an enemy for this faction).]
A dark purple treasure chest appeared next to Nobunaga's body, but now was not the time to take the chest, first he needed to kill the remaining Spiders.
The Spider Queen's power actually pleasantly surprised Su Xiao. Su Xiao originally planned to kill Nobunaga in 5 shots, but thanks to his skills and the improvement of the rifle, he was able to kill him in 3 shots.
Su Xiao turned the muzzle of the rifle on Uvogin.
Right now, Wuwogin was filled with anger and was looking in Su Xiao's direction as if he wanted to swallow him alive.
Uvogin dug one hand into the ground and picked up a few small stones. His body tensed up in the next moment, just like a bowstring.
He wanted to smash Su Xiao's head with a well aimed stone throw.
Uwogin threw the stone with all his strength and it flew towards Su Xiao with a wild whoosh.
Su Xiao didn't even try to dodge such an attack. The distance between them was more than 700 meters. Even with his strength, he wouldn't be able to hit a very small target with a rock.
Even if he was lucky and the stone flew straight at Su Xiao, he would be able to create an energy shield at any time.
*Boom!*
A rock crashed into the ground somewhere under Su Xiao's hill.
Su Xiao immediately pulled the trigger. Bullets and rocks were completely different things.
Uvogin staggered back a few steps in the optical scope. A large bullet lodged in the lower part of his chest.
The shot that killed Nobunaga in seconds barely managed to pierce through Uvogin's skin.
Wasn't the difference between them too big? No, in fact, Uvogin had focused all his strength on the point where the bullet was supposed to hit, and it was precisely because of this that it was unable to seriously harm him.
Moreover, Nobunaga didn't have time to prepare at all. He was only able to jump back because of his instincts, but the next two bullets didn't give him even a second to think about the situation.
Su Xiao moved his aching shoulders and sighed. These shots did not go unnoticed for him, and although there were still cartridges in the rifle's magazine, he put the Spider Queen in his inventory.
Everyone except Uvogin was now in hiding. As for killing Uvogin, it was a pipe dream, at least trying to kill him with the Spider Queen was a waste of expensive bullets.
Su Xiao stood up, picked up the Dragon Flash, and just as he was about to leave, someone suddenly said, " Sorry to interrupt, but I'm not... But before his new companion could finish, Su Xiao looked at him sideways and said — " I'm not interested in the affairs of your Nostrade family. The auction will resume tomorrow morning at the antique auction house on Marco Street.
Dazon of the Nostrade family closed his mouth and finally nodded. "Got it, thanks.
Su Xiao jumped down, causing several of the Nostrade family's bodyguards to sigh in relief. Staying with Su Xiao around was definitely not a good experience, especially when he was fighting an enemy.
— Who is this guy? How many people has he killed so far? the bodyguard muttered as he suddenly noticed Kurapika walking down.
— Wait, Kurapika, what are you doing? Dason asked, but Kurapika's back was gradually moving further away from him, causing an ominous premonition to form in his heart.
— You're also asking? Of course we'll catch them all, " Kurapika said without turning his head. His pupils were red. Although his tone was calm, his heart was never calm. No, it was actually filled with flames of anger.
Dazon said in obvious horror, " Impossible, you saw them, that man has amazing and strange powers at all, he's just a monster, let this new monster deal with him, we can just wait for the right moment, there's no point in risking our lives.
In fact, many of them were horrified by Uvogin.
— Kurapika stopped, and after he turned his head, everyone noticed his purple pupils. Several of the bodyguards were quite well-informed and immediately recognized Kurapika's red eyes, and at the same time remembered the sensational Spider case a few years ago. Then they slaughtered a whole tribe of "Red-eyes" for their red eyes.
Melody's complexion didn't look very good. She felt that Kurapika was filled with anger, hatred, and completely lost his mind. If he got involved in this monster battle in this state, he would definitely die.
Melody took the flute in her hands, and soon a gentle melody spread throughout the area.
Kurapika stopped abruptly.
Su Xiao also heard the gentle melody.
[Notice: You have been affected by the "Desert Spring" flute effect, triggering the willpower and Intelligence assessment process... If the assessment fails, your morale, emotions, and other abnormal states will be nullified, and your hostility towards other people will fade.]
[The decision was made!]
[You have received the "Spring Time of the Wild" boost effect».
Strength +2; Agility -2; Health Recovery Rate (per minute) +5%; Resistance to abnormal conditions +15%.
The effect will last for 10 minutes.]
Su Xiao stopped and looked at Melody. She simply put away the flute and bowed to Su Xiao, then mouthed, " Mister, please don't offend Kurapika».
— Bastard, come down and accept your death! Uvogin's roar echoed through the valley.
