The girl observed the battlefield through the scope, pouting when she realized the missile hadn’t killed Su Xiao.
Click, click...
The sound of a clock ticking reached her ears, and a pink tir not far from her was counting down: 3 minutes 23 seconds.
Glancing at the tir, the girl pressed the headset on her ear.
"Clown, the ti is almost up."
The Red Clown, who was heading towards Su Xiao’s location, halted in his steps.
"So soon?"
"There’s 3 minutes left. Are you going to renew? If not, I’ll withdraw in 3 minutes. Only by spending money can you beco stronger. It’s 60,000 Paradise coins for 10 minutes of combat, which was the agreed price."
Despite the smile on his face, the Red Clown felt a bit pained after hearing the girl’s words.
"Renew it. Another 10 minutes!"
After receiving the 60,000 Paradise coins, the girl’s eyes curved into crescent moons.
"Thank you for your patronage."
She pulled the bolt of the gun, and a slightly hot shell casing flew out.
Holding her breath, the girl pulled the trigger.
Bam, bam, bam...
Gunpowder smoke spread, and the girl emptied a magazine in an instant. With a wave of her left hand, without any visible reloading motion, an empty magazine had already fallen at her feet, and a new one was inserted.
Dozens of magazines stood ready around the girl, waiting for her to use.
On the other side of the battlefield, Su Xiao stood firm, his energy shield roaring as the large bullets were deflected.
At this mont, he couldn’t move; just not being pushed back was already his limit, charging forward was out of the question.
Despite the predicant, Su Xiao remained calm. He also used a sniper rifle, so he knew bullets of this caliber weren’t cheap, and he didn’t believe the enemy had an unlimited supply.
Whoosh~
A bullet grazed the energy shield and ricocheted off, making a terrifying whistling sound.
"Mr. Hunter, we et again."
Amidst the ’barrage of bullets’, Su Xiao vaguely heard soone speaking.
Turning his head, he saw two n and a woman walking slowly toward him, led by the Red Clown.
The Red Clown smiled politely but didn’t take action imdiately.
"What an astonishing firepower. To maintain this level of firepower for 20 minutes, it cost 120,000 Paradise coins."
As the Red Clown spoke, cracks appeared on the energy shield in front of Su Xiao.
Crack, crack.
The cracks grew denser by the minute, and in less than a minute, the bullets would shatter the energy shield.
"Rhino."
The Red Clown signaled to the nearby Rhino, who nodded and quickly charged in the direction behind Su Xiao.
"Demoness, wait for the opportunity."
"Understood, boss."
The Demoness’s body gradually disappeared, seemingly entering a state of invisibility, but this was an ability more advanced than re invisibility.
The Demoness vanished into thin air, disappearing from everyone’s perception.
Noticing this, Su Xiao felt a chill in his heart. The enemy’s ability was tricky.
"Horn Strike!"
A whistling sound ca from behind Su Xiao.
Whoosh~
Almost instantly, the burly Rhino appeared behind Su Xiao.
A 200-point strength energy shield ford behind Su Xiao; the front was bombarded with bullets, making movent impossible.
Boom!
The earth beneath Su Xiao’s feet exploded like a bomb detonation.
An irresistible force hit from behind, sending Su Xiao flying.
After knocking Su Xiao away, Rhino collapsed to the ground, severely exhausted. The Red Clown appeared beside Rhino in an instant, placing one hand on Rhino’s back.
A surge of purple energy poured into Rhino’s body, allowing the exhausted Rhino to stand up.
The Red Clown nodded his head.
"Continue."
"Uh-huh."
Rhino took a deep breath and launched himself off the ground like a fired cannonball.
At this mont, Su Xiao hadn’t yet hit the ground, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. The energy shield behind him showed holes, caused by the charge of the black burly man, who was like a black rhinoceros.
Though Su Xiao was airborne, the bullets flying towards him didn’t cease. Because of the impact, he was propelled continuously, flying obliquely backward.
Just as Su Xiao was about to land, Rhino arrived!
The sa move as before, using the horn on his head for a strike.
Boom!
A blast wave spread, shattering the energy shield at Su Xiao’s back. His internal organs seed to shift, and he spat a mouthful of blood.
When everyone thought Su Xiao would be knocked away, he actually hovered briefly in midair.
Not only did Su Xiao pause in the air, but Rhino’s body also suddenly flew forward.
A barely noticeable tal wire was wrapped around Rhino’s horn; rather than knocking Su Xiao away, he stumbled a few steps forward himself.
Snap!
The Boundary Line snapped under the strain, breaking a small section at the front. Su Xiao rolled a few tis on the ground, looking disheveled but not knocked away.
Sizzle~
The Boundary Line tangled around Rhino’s neck. Just as Su Xiao intended to decapitate Rhino, a sharp pain coursed through his chest.
Squelch.
An invisible blade pierced Su Xiao’s chest, wielded by the Demoness who had been hiding in the shadows.
With the close proximity and Su Xiao sitting, counterattacking with a knife was impossible.
"Demoness, back off!"
Rhino roared, with the smiling Red Clown standing behind him.
The ’Horn Strike’ skill Rhino used was powerful; at this level of ability, using it consecutively should have been impossible.
Horn Strike LV.29 (Innate Talent, Active Type)

Note: The cooldown ti for Horn Strike (Active) is 2 natural days.

LV.10 Additional Effect: Powerful Knockback.
LV.20 Additional Effect: Charge Acceleration.
...
Undoubtedly, if this move hit a Contractor of a more fragile build, it would definitely be a one-hit kill.
Rhino’s other abilities were lacking, specifically designed for this move, which had killed countless Contractors.
In a normal scenario, Rhino should only be able to use Horn Strike once per battle, but so far, he had used it twice and was preparing for a third ti.
There was no cooldown, nor was he affected by exhaustion, indicating a connection to the Red Clown.
With Rhino’s roar, the Demoness flipped backward after stabbing Su Xiao with a dagger, Su Xiao’s hand grasping at empty air.
Jumping up from the ground, Su Xiao had just stabilized when a bullet hit the energy shield, causing him to stagger a few steps.
With a swoosh, Rhino charged up to Su Xiao, with those eyes holding one belief: to ram Su Xiao to death.
For the third ti, Su Xiao braced against the strike. Just before it hit, a long knife swung at Rhino.
Clang!
A dazzling blade aura flew out, leaving a gash on Rhino’s shoulder that extended to his chest, with blood gushing.
Boom!
Rhino ramd the energy shield in front of Su Xiao, finally breaking the shield that had withstood hundreds of bullets.
An enormous impact force ca, and just as the sharp horn was about to pierce Su Xiao’s chest, a golden shield enveloped him.
The impact had already been mostly absorbed by the energy shield, and the appearance of the Secondary Invincible Shield rendered Rhino’s third strike ineffective.
Su Xiao’s legs sank into the dirt, the ground behind him surging, yet he stood firm and wasn’t knocked back.
Gazing intently at Rhino, Su Xiao laughed.
"My turn."
The long knife slashed down, Su Xiao ignoring the sound of sothing cutting through the air behind him and the glow in the Red Clown’s hand from afar.
This guy must be dealt with; compared to the distant cannon, he posed a greater threat.
