Clap~Clap~Clap~
After the Earth Dragon Team landed steadily, they imdiately ford an arrowhead formation.
Qin Dadi stood at the forefront, Xiao Yunlong and Liu Zhaozhao guarded the flanks, while Qin Tian took the center, acting as the team’s brain.
"Qin Tian, head that way."
After Qin Tian exhibited his exceptional perception ability, Qin Dadi decisively transferred command, taking on just the role of a at shield.
Qin Tian slightly lowered his eyes, concentrating his consciousness.
Within a radius of two kiloters, streams of information such as sound, sll, and heat sources flowed into his brain, eventually forming a radar hotspot map.
"This way."
Qin Tian pointed in a direction, from which ca the sound of snake scales rubbing on the ground, indicating movent of snake-n.
"Move out!"
The Earth Dragon Team said nothing further and ran in the direction Qin Tian pointed. The sky was too dark, and the terrain was complex. Even with the help of multifunctional helts, they still had to constantly mind their footing for safety, resulting in a slow pace.
Halfway there, Qin Tian suddenly shouted:
"Stop!"
The group imdiately halted, nerves taut.
"What’s going on, Qin Tian?" Xiao Yunlong asked in a low voice.
Qin Tian took down the Shadowstrike from his back, mounted it among so large stones, and hid the gun muzzle stealthily between the crevices, aiming forward, moving slowly:
"He’s right ahead."
Ahead?
Qin Dadi, Liu Zhaozhao, and Xiao Yunlong imdiately looked forward. With the infrared assistance of the multifunctional helts, they could see grass, broken wood, and stones, but not a snake-man.
"Qin Tian, are you certain?" Xiao Yunlong asked doubtfully.
Qin Tian nodded lightly: "I’m certain."
The snake-man ahead covered its heat signature perfectly by adjusting body temperature, a technique that could evade the helt’s infrared detection but not his naked-eye observation.
In the field of vision, a snake-man was crawling towards them almost in a prone position, moving cautiously. Its blue-black scales blended into the night color, and the sound of scales rubbing the ground was masked by the howling wind.
The snake-man thought he was moving silently and seamlessly. Little did he know, under Qin Tian’s formidable night vision, every action was laid bare.
Buzz~
The three major runes on the Shadowstrike Rune Spear activated, the trigger pulled, and a special bullet was fired from the muzzle, hitting the snake-man right between the eyes.
Bang~~
The Tier Three Snake-man Warrior had his head blown off by Qin Tian with a single shot.
For the Shadowstrike, unless it’s a Beast Spirit Warrior of powerful bloodline, anything below Tier Four dies without exception.
Above Tier Four, you could still gamble with the Burning Embers Critical Strike.
Yesterday’s Tier Four Poisonous Snake-man was the best proof.
Bang~~
The head exploded, red and white scattered all over the ground.
The Earth Dragon Team blinked, only at this mont did they notice the snake-man through the night vision goggles.
"Hiss, that was close."
Xiao Yunlong gasped, both shocked and scared.
If not for Qin Tian, the snake-man might have crept right up to their faces without them noticing.
"How did this snake-man evade infrared detection?" Liu Zhaozhao asked, puzzled.
She had previously fought Shadow Cats and Spirit Cats, but it was her first ti facing snake-n, unfamiliar with their talents and abilities.
Qin Tian explained:
"It’s an ability to control body temperature. More powerful snake-n can alter their body temperature to blend in with the surroundings, evading infrared detection."
Had it not been for absorbing the Thermosense Control talent, he couldn’t have imagined that snake-n had such a trick.
After killing the snake-man, two balls of talent light flew towards him. Unfortunately, these two light balls didn’t displace the standing of Thermosense Control and Body of Ten Thousand Poisons.
However, the evolution points gained from the kill brought pleasant surprise to Qin Tian.
points
Looks like it was a higher-level Tier Three Snake-man.
Not bad, a good start!
Qin Tian slightly curled his lips. At that mont, his ears moved, catching the sounds of fighting from afar.
"Let’s head this way."
Qin Tian pointed southward, and the Earth Dragon Team set off imdiately.
Not long after, Qin Dadi and the others also heard the sounds of fighting ahead.
Ding ding ding~~
Battle swords clashed in the air, sparks flying.
A towering snake-man wielded a longsword, engaged in combat with three humans. Judging from their spiritual pressure and performance, they were all Tier Three Spiritualists. However, the snake-man’s power was clearly superior to the other three, holding its own against them.
"Should we step in?" Xiao Yunlong looked to Qin Tian.
Qin Tian pondered for a mont, then shook his head.
"Let’s observe the situation first."
Tis have changed.
This was a grand hunting feast against snake-n.
Every team was trying their best to find and kill escaped snake-n to earn more Military Points.
Intervening without reason while the allies were holding their ground would be akin to kill-stealing in a ga and would undoubtedly cause dissatisfaction or even disputes.
Ding ding ding~~
The clash of weapons continued, and the battle grew more intense.
Just as the snake-man swung his blade to block an incoming longsword, he suddenly felt sothing slap on his back.
As bystanders, the Earth Dragon Team clearly saw what had just happened.
Just then, a book-sized black door silently appeared behind the snake-man. A hand reached out from the Black Gate, placing a white substance on the snake-man’s back, followed by the hand swiftly retracting back into the gate as it closed.
When the hand reached out, the three Spiritualists, who had been attacking the snake-man, imdiately retreated in unison. In the next mont, a sticky bomb on the snake-man’s back exploded violently.
Boom!
A flash of fire and a powerful explosion blew the snake-man into the air, scales cracking, blood spraying, accompanied by a chilling scream.
"Holy crap, this superpower is so insidious; who could defend against that."
Xiao Yunlong exclaid, mouth agape, then quickly added:
"If I had this superpower, I’d definitely be a legendary thief by now."
Qin Dadi calmly stated: "This superpower can only be used as support. And there’s still the issue of range to consider; it’s not as great as you think."
Indeed~
Qin Tian nodded silently, agreeing with Qin Dadi’s assessnt.
If it weren’t for the snake-man being occupied by the other three Spiritualists, it surely would have detected the Black Gate as it opened and reacted accordingly.
This superpower is not suited for direct combat.
But Xiao Yunlong wasn’t entirely wrong, either; without range limitations, it would indeed be hard to defend against in theft.
Qin Tian turned his head, looking toward a large tree two kiloters away. Using thermal detection, the Superpower User was concealed among the lush foliage, perfectly hidden, motionless, impossible to spot with naked eyes, quite...
Suddenly, Qin Tian’s pupils contracted.
In his view, a face covered in scales suddenly appeared behind the Superpower User, its yellow snake eyes flashing with malice, but its attention was completely focused on the battlefield, unaware of Qin Tian’s presence.
Even from two kiloters away, Qin Tian had been keeping an eye on the battlefield below. Under the failure of thermal detection, he hadn’t spotted this snake-man either.
Not good!
Qin Tian quickly set up his gun, aiming sharply at the snake-man and pulling the trigger fiercely.
Almost at the sa ti
Splat~
Bang~
The steel saber pierced the back of the Superpower User, while the bullet blasted the snake-man’s head apart.
"Qin Tian, what were you..."
The Earth Dragon Team looked at Qin Tian, a questioning gleam in their eyes.
Qin Tian slowly lowered his gun, shaking his head.
