In the explosion in Windmill Town, at the last moment zero started Enraged. With Lan Qi"s shooting ability, he still wasn"t able to snipe at an opponent that was breaking through the speed of sound. At Lan Qi"s unwillingness, Zero left the factory building just before the explosion. However, the flames and shockwave from the explosion still burnt him, causing a large area of his skin to die.
However, Zero endured the pain and returned to the factory after the first round of explosion. He placed the M500, which had been distorted by the shock wave and high temperature, in the hands of an unlucky guy who was about the same size as Zero. In order to create the illusion of his own death, Zero had even taken off his tactical uniform and replaced the corpse, forcing him to steal unfit clothes from Mr. Halt.
After that, Zero hid in Windmill Town until Sauron"s team left. He used more than half a day to replenish his water and food, and when his injuries had slightly improved, he followed the trail of Saurun"s convoy all the way here. If not for the sudden heavy rain, Zero"s attack would have been greatly reduced. But the rain of radiation had triggered a crisis of confidence in Sauron"s army, which was now unable to form an effective force.
This was a hard to come by opportunity, and Zero did not want to give it up. Tonight, Zero hoped that he could kill Saurun. This way, he would have more chips to get more resources and money from Parkland.
Saurun was his interest!
However, Saurun"s progress had given him a whole new level of respect. The Blazing Flame Strike of the fourth step had left a deep impression on Zero. If it weren"t for the fact that he had used [Rampage] to escape before his ability was formed and was instead trapped within the fire elemental energy storm, he would have no way of fighting back even if he didn"t die.
Of course, this was a completely different situation.
Saurun"s power was unquestionable. The attack of an Elemental Power user was without forewarning, and his skills were suited for the long run, with no obvious weaknesses or weaknesses. However, Zero believed that Lange was more terrifying than Saurun. What was more terrifying was not Lange"s ability. In terms of abilities, Lan Qi was far inferior to Saurun. However, Lan Qi was much calmer than Saurun. Even before he killed his son, Lan Qi was able to plan things out with great precision. Even if he had to sacrifice himself, he would drag Zero into h.e.l.l.
Compared to that man, Saurun was neither calm nor did he have the awareness to risk his life. The weakness of Sauron"s character had been exposed in his previous encounters, and there was no need for further proof.
With powerful abilities but not a strong heart, this kind of opponent wasn"t scary at all.
After using [Rampage] to get out of range of the Raging Flames, he would shoot at a constant speed of zero M500. Just as he expected, based on the conventional tactics of the elementalist, Saurun had already set up an elemental force field around his body before the battle began. When the bullet struck the force field, this formless force field began to s.h.i.+ne with a crimson light, indicating its existence.
Zero"s revolver kept firing, and although it was a flick, the bullet point was surprisingly accurate. Although he couldn"t get to the point where he could snipe an Ice Element user like Lafite, the margin of error was less than half a centimeter. The continuous impact of 50 warheads was a severe test for Saurun"s elemental energy field.
After the fifth shot, the elemental force field suddenly emitted an intense light, and exploded into countless fragments of energy like gla.s.s.
A bullet flew past Saurun"s face. Although it didn"t hit him directly, the impact of the bullet caused a thin line of blood to appear on his handsome face.
Saurun narrowed his eyes and immediately attacked back. He pressed in the direction of zero, and a red light spot formed under his feet.
Zero immediately rolled to the side. Almost at the same time he moved, a high-temperature fire pillar shot up into the sky.
"You can"t escape!" Saurun roared and waved his hands. Spots of light appeared under Zero"s feet like a mine, but Zero was able to dodge the fire pillar.
In fact, the High Temperature Fire Pillar could be said to be an instantaneous type of attack. As a sniper, Zero had an instinct for danger like a wild beast. In addition to his agility of the fifth step, it allowed him to escape Saurun"s grasp.
From afar, it seemed as if there was a grand display of fireworks going on in the camp. However, this was a fatal firework, but Saurun discovered that the attack that he desperately tried to lock onto his opponent only brushed past him.
However, Zero seemed to be starting to run out of energy, and this high precision evasion was not an easy task. After dodging another of Saurun"s attacks, Zero turned around and ran. Saurun was so angry that his teeth were itching. After he realized that he could not hit zero directly, he planned to push zero to a certain region. Saurun had already prepared for another Raging Flames attack, but Zero chose the opposite direction and plunged headlong into the ruins of the city.
Saurun"s anger had already been provoked by the repeated provocations. He did not intend to let go of Zero, so he chased after her and left the camp. However, Saurun seemed to have forgotten that the complex environment was enough for Zero to bring out its sniping ability to its fullest.
When the user of the elemental force field moved at high speed, their defense would be weakened. Hence, Saurun equipped himself with an elemental set to increase his own defensive capabilities and also provide a certain amount of attack power.
Clad in the Raging Flame Armor made of fire elemental energy, Saurun held onto the Flame Spear and charged into the darkness of the ruins. Wherever he pa.s.sed by, he left behind a trail of burning flames. The flames on the ground rippled with fire elemental energy, causing the small mutated beasts that were searching for food in the vicinity to not dare to approach the two"s battlefield.
When Saurun saw Zero"s figure dart into an abandoned shopping mall, he followed without hesitation. Just as he was about to step through the door, Saurun suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
Without time to think, he raised the Fire Elemental s.h.i.+eld to his chest. In the next moment, his entire body violently shook.
The elemental force field was easily penetrated by the armor piercing bullet, but the high temperature brought about by the force field caused the bullet to have traces of corrosion. Originally, if he were to collide with the flame s.h.i.+eld again, he would have been blocked by the elemental force field that was both a defense and a high temperature energy s.h.i.+eld, and the s.h.i.+eld would have melted into liquid iron.
To Saurun"s surprise, the bullet exploded when it struck the s.h.i.+eld. The impact of the explosion knocked Sauron out of the door, and he rolled twice on the floor, the mud staining his n.o.ble body, which annoyed him. What made Saurun surprised was that Saurun could feel the fluctuations of the fire element from the explosion.
The armor piercing bullet did not seem to be modified, as it was filled with explosives. It looked more like zero had added fire element directly to it, triggering the explosion when it collided. The principle was similar to Saurun"s Raging Flames, but the power had been reduced by several folds.
But when he thought about how Zero had mastered the power of the fire element, Saurun felt as if he had eaten a mouse. It was as if Zero had stolen something from him, and Sauron felt uncomfortable. He fiercely looked inside the shopping mall and saw a black shadow pa.s.s by the escalator on the second floor …
Saurun grunted and used his Flame s.h.i.+eld to protect his chest from Zero"s sneak attack. At the same time, he rushed up an escalator that had collapsed in the middle of it.
He swore to kill this rat!
