15 seconds countdown.
14 seconds: the Eye of the Thunder scope already adjusted to the most suitable magnification.
13 seconds: all the statistics were completely calculated in Feng Luo’s mind.
12 seconds: a black sniper rifle already entered ready-to-fire state.
10 seconds: Feng Luo’s finger rested on the trigger, not shooting but waiting for the opportunity.
There was not much change in the actions of the players, as the internal communication had been disrupted and the position 500 meters below the city environment was already considered to be very far, making the previous noises from the war was not very obvious.
With gunshot noises everywhere as there were still many players who had come online early and were fighting zombies, the more this previous combat of only a short few seconds was not really attention-catching.
Although it had not raised the guard of the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group players, the defense of the “Tyrant-hunting” team 500 meters away was extremely tight from start to finish.
An entire team of six Heavy Armored Warriors formed a tight Alloy Shield wall beside the Umbrella Company NPC who was travelling towards the roaring Tyrant which had fallen to the ground, not leaving any slight gaps.
Feng Luo had no doubt that if it was not for the traffic congestion in the entire city region, the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group would definitely have made a bulletproof Energy vehicle of the highest-grade and let this NPC stay inside it, and not make a group of Elite players engage in protection now due to the matter of time constraint.
Through the scope of the Eye of the Thunder, Feng Luo’s eyes stared directly at that absolutely tight shield wall.
Another reason why he had chosen this position was because through the vision of another Scout Beetle, he had clearly seen that the spot where the newest Tyrant had fallen was over here. He needed a perspective to control the mechanic spider and to prevent the Tyrant from having any more energy to attack people, this Umbrella Company researcher NPC still had to do from a certain distance.
Hence, within these few seconds that the NPC was controlling the robotic spider, the six Heavy Armored Warrior players had to open a gap in the shield wall.
5 seconds: The “Tyrant-hunting” team had already moved to a safe position; the two front most Heavy Armored Warriors shifted their shields, revealing a gap of about 20 centimeters.
Inside was an Umbrella Company NPC wearing white laboratory attire and technological glasses, his fingers tapping onto something on a screen of light.
20 centimeters at a distance of 500 meters was almost no different from a crevice. But to Feng Luo who had aimed accurately, this was enough.
“Ping!”
2 seconds: At the balcony, there was a muffled gunshot, after which a black special sniper bullet spun at high speed as it rushed out of the muzzle of the Eye of the Thunder at a speed of over 900M per second.
In just less than one second, the bullet, clearly much longer than an average bullet, had passed the buildings and infrastructure along the way, even tightly following the surface of a glass wall of a building at a few centimeters away as it flew.
After covering the 500 meter distance, it precisely hit the head of the researcher NPC with the technological glasses who was controlling the robotic spider.
“Pai!”
Unexpectedly, as the black bullet rammed into the NPC’s head, a white light flashed across the surface of the researcher NPC’s clothing.
There was no damage coefficient emerging above the NPC’s head at all, and he was not eliminated by the immense power of the sniper bullet.

What was even stranger was that a blood-red lethal damage coefficient emerged above the head of the Heavy Armored Warrior closest to Feng Luo’s side.
“-22800!”
A five-digit damage coefficient, furthermore over 20,000, a gorgeous five-digit number.
“A Rare Protection Skill.”
Feng Luo’s face darkened, as he had seen such a situation before.
Previously at the Silverleaf Island mission, a Sniper player from the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had sneakily hidden on the side for ambush.
He suddenly opened fire at Lin when everyone had relaxed from combat, attempting to kill off the mission NPC and disrupt Red Queen’s mission.
Since Big Pineapple had used a Rare Protection Skill on Lin long before, the resultant lethal damage was doubled and passed on to Big Pineapple, leaving Lin completely unharmed.
That Heavy Armored Warrior of the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had this type of extremely rarely seen Rare skill known as “Bodyguard Divine Skill.”
The Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had considered the possibility of Federation players sniping the NPC long before, more than just having a shield wall, they also had a foolproof protection measure.
As the damage of this skill was calculated based on attack power and not based on the upper limit if the NPC’s HP on which the skill had been applied, the damage emerging above this Heavy Armored Warrior’s head was definitely completely beyond any of the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group players’ anticipation.
It was lethal damage of more than 20,000; even if this Heavy Armored Warrior’s equipment was good, with Feng Luo’s horrifying attack after his awakened Force and with his Lethal Talent coefficient multiplied, the Heavy Armored Warrior would not be able to withstand it. At the same time as the damage coefficient emerging above his head, a white light of death flashed across his body.
Despite having one Heavy Armored Warrior dead, was Feng Luo’s action declared to be a failure?
Since the Eye of the Thunder needed a second of cooldown time, it was not possible for him to have a chance to fire a second shot before the remaining players reacted and defended the NPC.
..….
On the balcony, Feng Luo’s expression was a little strange, as his gaze was dead-fixed on that black sniper bullet which had sprung from the white light, changed direction and hit the Heavy Armored Warrior beside, as if he was anticipating something.
That black sniper bullet which had hit the Heavy Armored Warrior suddenly violently exploded.
“Peng!”
A ball-shaped shockwave dispersed into the surrounding area from the center of the bullet explosion, sending the originally neatly-arranged remaining five Heavy Armored Warriors together with the Umbrella Company NPC to the ground, creating chaos.
This situation was undoubtedly once again beyond anyone’s anticipation.
[Heavy Impact Bullet (B-Grade)]
Increases attack by 20%, explodes after hitting target and creates a powerful shockwave within a certain region.
The bullet that Feng Luo used was not an ordinary sniper bullet but a very special Rare bullet, the second type of B-Grade bullet among the four types of B-Grade bullets from the passcode chest.
It was not the first time Feng Luo had received such a featured bullet as the “Impact Bullet,” during the Roguetown mission, he had obtained a bullet known as the “Impact Bullet I” from that Guard Bureau team director, the impact force it had could possibly even knock a Tyrant down.
That kind of bullet was just a handgun bullet, and just on price alone, sniper bullets were equivalent to more than three times that of handgun bullets.
This “Heavy Impact Sniper Bullet” not only carried impact force, but an extremely powerful range impact force.
