Chapter 52: Snipe
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the wilderness of County 0504.
On the rooftop of a 16-story building covered in huge vines.
Chu Zhou, Ling Zhan, Shi Meng, and Li Qingshi were each holding a telescope. They squatted at the edge of the roof and looked at the long streets below through the leaves of the vines.
“There are indeed many monsters in the ruined city!”
Chu Zhou muttered to himself.
Groups of monsters appeared in his vision.
He saw at least hundreds of monsters in just a short while.
“No wonder they say that the ruined city is dangerous…”
“There are so many monsters, and the lowest level is the Beast Soldier Level.
Even Extraordinary Realm Experts won’t be able to escape if they’re surrounded by hundreds of monsters…” Li Qingshi also said with a serious expression.
“Look over there… It’s the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs!”
Shi Meng suddenly shouted in a low voice and pointed at a street corner.
Chu Zhou, Ling Zhan, and Li Qingshi perked up. They immediately picked up their binoculars and looked in the direction Shi Meng was pointing.
They soon saw bull-sized Scorpion-Tailed Dogs walk out of a street corner.
These Scorpion-Tailed Dogs generally still retained the characteristics of the dogs of the old era.
However, a sharp scorpion tail grew behind them.
More than 30 gray Scorpion-Tailed Dogs guarded a pink-haired Scorpion-Tailed Dogs as they slowly walked on the street.
The pink Scorpion-Tailed Dog was more than twice the size of the typical gray Scorpion-Tailed Dogs.
Many gray Scorpion-Tailed Dogs looked at the pink Scorpion-Tailed Dog with fear.
The Scorpion-Tailed Dogs found a piece of meat nearby and did not dare to eat it themselves. They placed it respectfully in front of the pink Scorpion -Tailed Dog.
The gray Scorpion -Tailed Dogs only dared to eat meat together after the pink Scorpion-Tailed Dog took a bite and was no longer interested.
“It’s the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs…”
“We’re really lucky to have encountered the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs so quickly.”
“Moreover… There are only about 30 normal Scorpion-Tailed Dogs beside this
Queen.”
Chu Zhou and the other three were delighted.
None of them expected to find the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen so quickly.
Moreover, the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen in front of them only had 30 normal Scorpion-Tailed Dogs by her side.
One had to know that the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs were very fertile. Therefore, the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs were usually in a very large group.
Even a group of a hundred Scorpion-Tailed Dogs could only be said to be relatively small among the many Scorpion-Tailed Dogs.
Most of the Scorpion -Tailed Dogs groups numbered more than 500.
There were also some with more than a thousand of them.
As the leader of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs, the Queen usually had at least a hundred Normal Scorpion-Tailed Dogs guarding her when she went out. This Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen only had 30-odd of them by her side.
It could be said that it was very rare.
However, it was undoubtedly a good thing for Chu Zhou and the others.
“In a while, Li Qingshi will sneak near the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs and snipe it!”
“A hole in one would be the most ideal situation.”
“But if it’s not dead, Shi Meng and I will charge into the 30-odd
Scorpion-Tailed Dogs and forcefully open a path…”
“At that time, Ling Zhan will follow behind us and rush in with us to kill the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs…’
Chu Zhou communicated softly and told them the strategy.
“Understood!”
Ling Zhan and the other two nodded slightly.
“Alright! Let’s move!”
“Let’s end this quickly!”
Chu Zhou and the other three quickly went downstairs. Then, Li Qingshi immediately turned into an afterimage and disappeared. She flew into a building beside her and approached the Queen of the Scorpion -Tailed Dogs from inside.
Chu Zhou and the other two lowered their bodies slightly and stuck to the wall. They slowly approached with the help of the tall plants.
A moment later, Chu Zhou and the other two arrived about 300 meters away from the Queen of the Scorpion -Tailed Dogs and stopped moving.
The Scorpion-Tailed Dogs had a sharp nose and were very vigilant.
They would be in danger of being discovered if they continued forward.
Chu Zhou and the other two held their breaths and accumulated strength in their bodies, like three ferocious beasts about to be released from their cages.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a light flashed.
A ball of light suddenly exploded on the head of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs
Queen.
“Howl—”
The Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen suddenly let out a shrill scream.
Not only was there a bloody hole in its head, there were also a large number of burn marks from the high temperature. This was the sign of being hit by the plasma gun’s energy bullet.
The Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs let out a shrill scream. The 30-odd Scorpion-Tailed Dogs around her also panicked. They squeezed closer to the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs to protect her.
“Li Qingshi, target hit. Charge!”
Chu Zhou’s eyes lit up as he rushed out first.
He used the Phantom movement technique. With every step he took, he dragged out two phantoms.
300 meters passed in the blink of an eye.
“Extreme Titanium Golden Body! ”
With a thought, Chu Zhou’s body flickered with a faint golden light. His skin turned into armor inch by inch, and like an armored Warrior, he crashed into more than 30 Scorpion-Tailed Dogs.
The two Scorpion -Tailed Dogs were smashed into meat paste.
There was also a Scorpion-Tailed Dog that was sent flying more than ten meters. Its body had many fractures and it spat out blood non-stop.
“Hahaha, I’m here!”
Shi Meng laughed wildly and rushed over.
He held the shield in one hand and used the Nine Fold Tremor Punch consecutively with the other, knocking down or sending the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs flying.
Ling Zhan only followed behind Chu Zhou and Shi Meng. He held the Alloy Sword tightly with one hand and gathered strength in his entire body, preparing to give the heavily injured Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen a fatal blow.
The panicked Scorpion-Tailed Dogs could not stop them at all with Chu Zhou and Shi Meng leading the way.
They quickly arrived near the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs, which was wailing.
“Kill!
Ling Zhan, who had been accumulating strength for a long time, suddenly erupted at this moment. He leaped out from behind Chu Zhou and Shi Meng and stabbed at the throat of the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs at lightning speed.
It pierced through the sky like a rainbow.
With a pfft, the throat of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs was pierced through by a sword.
A one-hit kill!
BANG!
The Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen turned into a corpse and fell to the ground.
“Well done!” Chu Zhou gave Ling Zhan a thumbs up.
“Hahaha, it worked!”
Shi Meng laughed loudly and tore off the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen’s scorpion tail, pulling it out forcefully.
When the surrounding 30-odd Scorpion-Tailed Dogs saw that Chu Zhou and the other two had actually killed the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs Queen, they went crazy.
They attacked Chu Zhou and the other two without caring about anything. However, Chu Zhou and the other two were very relaxed.
These 30-odd Scorpion-Tailed Dogs could not stop them at all if they wanted to leave.
The Viper Team was also at the top of another building, using binoculars to search for Chu Zhou and gang while they were dealing with the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs.
“Captain, we found them.”
“Look, there they are.”
A member of the Viper Team pointed at Chu Zhou and the others.
Lu Wu immediately took out her binoculars and looked in the direction of Chu Zhou and the others.
“Eh? This is unexpected. These newbies are quite strong, eh? They actually dared to attack the Queen of the Scorpion-Tailed Dogs and succeeded..
Lu Wu revealed a surprised expression.
However, he quickly said to the Sniper beside him, Sun Long, “Sun Long, kill them.”
“Captain, don’t worry. We’re about to get 100 million!”
Sun Long smiled confidently. He set up his sniper rifle and aimed at Chu Zhou.
Chu Zhou and Shi Meng, the two “violent hunks”, joined forces and forcefully opened a path among the many Scorpion-Tailed Dogs again, preparing to retreat with Ling Zhan.
The target had been killed. They did not want to stay here and fight the remaining Scorpion -Tailed Dogs.
This was a ruined city with a large number of monsters. It would be troublesome if the commotion was too big and attracted the nearby monsters.
It was better to retreat first.
Suddenly, Chu Zhou’s scalp went numb. He instinctively circulated the Extreme Titanium Golden Body and placed his arm in front of his head.
BANG!
A sonic boom sounded. Chu Zhou’s arm hurt slightly and he immediately felt a strong push. He slid back a step.
BANG!
Another sonic boom sounded. Shi Meng screamed and fell to the ground. A bloody hole was pierced through his thigh.
Surging blood continuously flowed out of the bloody hole. “Oh no, someone is sniping us!” “Ling Zhan, quickly enter the ruins building beside us!”
At this moment, Chu Zhou reacted.
His expression changed. He grabbed the injured Shi Meng and carried him on his back ignoring the pain on his arm.
Then, he used the Phantom movement technique.
He crashed into the wall of the ruins building beside him as quickly as possible.
He barged through the dilapidated wall and entered the ruins building with a rumble.
Ling Zhan entered the building with him almost at the same time.
The moment they entered the building, they looked back in the direction of the gunshot and vaguely saw five familiar figures.
“It’s them, the Viper Team!”
Chu Zhou and Ling Zhan were filled with hatred, and killing intent condensed in their eyes.
“How is this possible? That Chu Zhou actually blocked the bullet of a heavy sniper rifle with his hand?”
Sun Long could not believe his eyes when he saw that he was actually fine after blocking his bullet with his hand in the Viper Team.
This was a heavy sniper bullet.
Moreover, he was using special armor-piercing bullets.
Even Extraordinary Realm Experts wouldn’t dare to use their hands to block armor-piercing bullets shot from heavy sniper rifles, right?
He quickly reacted and saw Chu Zhou and Ling Zhan escaping into the building beside him. He aimed again and prepared to continue to shoot.
However, another gunshot sounded before he could fire.
A metal bullet brushed past his ear and almost went through his brain.
Another energy bullet shot into the wall beside him. A ball of energy light exploded with a bang.
“Damn it, it’s a plasma gun…
Sun Long’s expression changed. He could only give up on continuing to shoot Chu Zhou and Ling Zhan. His figure retreated at full speed, avoiding the energy light wave.
“Captain, we failed!”
Sun Long said to Lu Wu with an embarrassed expression.
“I saw it…
Lu Wu narrowed his eyes and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He was like a poisonous snake and revealed an extremely dangerous smile.
“Hehe, it seems that this Chu Zhou is quite capable. However, he’s destined to die since he has become our prey.”
“Now, let us play a game of pursuit and escape with him!”
With that, he left the building with everyone from the Viper Team..
